 5*.l m \M lid ^arft^afe ^fanbori. C. W. Rutledge, Proprietor. =r I MARKDALB, MAY. 2, 1889- GABRIEL DUMONT, 'Gabriel Damont recently visited Quebec, after receiving his pardon, and w as there worshipped almost as a saint by the ^French, since which he passed through Winnipeg and is now holding meetings among the French half-breede in tho Northwest and uig- ing them to demand the return by the^ Oovernmcnt ot lands and property which was confiscated at the late Northwest rebellion. It is hard to foretell what miscbiel Damont may work up, and in our humble opinion he should be strung up even should lynch law have to be resorted to. THE JESUITS ACT. Mr. Mercier's Jesuit Estates Act is the question of the day tbronghont Canada, and is stirring loyal British blood in this fair Dominion from centre to circumference. The opposition is growing more intense and universal from week to week, and is not con- fined to Protestants, as an important section of the Roman Catholic Church in Quebec, together with leading French Canadian newspapers, are hostile to the Act and consider it an undesirable encroachment of Jesuitism and is regarded as a foreign 'importa- tion, breeding dissention and strife, .and calculated to work mischief. The tide of opposition to the :Act is rising rapidly, while the indignation agaiiits our Dominion Parliataent for its cowardly and conrpromising action in the matter is everywhere ^lohdly pro- claimed. • The opening of .thiB, said to be the largest and costliest Methodist chnrch in the world, will be an attraction that will draw ^to that city the ablest Methodist divines in Canada. The tollowing is a programme for each Sunday :â€" First Sunday morning in June. Dr. Douglass, of the Wesleyan Theological College, will preach the opening sermon. In the afternoon Dr. WiUiams, general superintendent of the Methodist Church, will conduct service. In the evening Rev. Dr. Potts, secretary of the Educational Society of the Methodist Church, preaches. Second Sunday sermons will be preached as follows: â€" Morn- ingâ€" Dr. Newman, Bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church of the United States afternoon, Rey. Hugh Johnston, pastor of Trinity chnrch, Toronto evening. Dr. Newman. Thurd Sundayâ€" Morning, Rev. Dr. Briggs. book stewart of the Methodist Church afteroon, public meeting and addresses by the leading ministers of the city evening. Rev. Hugh John- ston, of Bromptcn, will preach. The musical portion of the services is to be especially grand. The organ will cost $16,000 alone, and when com- pleted will be the largest organ, in Canada. The seating capacity of the new church will be 2,800. and when all the pews are rented an annual revenue of some $8,000 is expected to be realized for seats alone. Standard Carre t pandenee.
