Charles Mar-\ntindiile died suddenly in this city\nlive or six yean ago as a result of a\nstroke of apoplexy whioh came upon\nhim during a wrestling match with\na companion, He waa buried with\nthe usual forms. Imt night he appeared iu the flesh at the home of\nhis parents, rin the lirst ward, and\nhad the following story to tell of his\nexperience: He remembered distinctly that he was wrestling with\nhis companions, and then it seemed\nto grow dark. He felt that he was\nbeing lifted up and carried away,\nbut lie had no power to remonstrate.\nHis nerves refused to aet. He knew\nthat his parents were weeping over\nhim, and afterwards he was conscious that he was being laid out\nStill he was unable to let anyone\nknow that be was alive. The most\nhorrible sensation came over him\nwhen the coffin was lowered in the\ngrave, and as the clods fell upon the\nlid he lost even what little mind he\nhad, and everything was a blank.\nWhen next consciousness came to\nhim, he was seated between two\nmen a riding in a light wagon.\nAlthough his eyes felt so heavy and\nswollen that he could not see, he\nheard enough to convince him that\nhe wus in the city, but the conversation of the men was what attracted his attention especially. \"I tell\nyou,\" said one, in low tones, \" we'll\ngive old Prof, a bigger scare than he\nhas had in many a day. I hooked\na good suit of clothes to-day from\nthe bouse, and when we get this\nstiff fixed up lielimiMfhhtng;\"\n\" It's heavy,\" said the other as\nhe pushed the body over towards his\ncompanion, \" Good subject,\" said\nNo. 1 in a whisper, and then Charles\nbegan to realize that he had been\nstolen from tbe coffin tor a medical\ncollege. The thought was by no\nmeans cheerful, but try ss he would\nCharles could not get out of his\nsemi-unconscious state. Rather the\nnews unsettled him, and he again\nlost all consciousness. When he\nknew anything again he was standing bolt upright in a low, square,\ndimly-lighted room. He could feel\nsomething on every side of him\nholding him up. He thought that\nho was in a dissecting room, and\nrealized tbat whatever was done\nmust le done then or never. Necessity is a creator, and the gravity of\nhis position seemed to infuse new\nblood into his veins. Suddenly he\nfelt the throbbing of his heart, and\nthen the sense of touch seemed to\ncome to him. He could feel the\nwarmth from the stove, while sharp\npains darted through his whole\nbody. The sense of smell came\nnext, and he almost fainted from\nthe odors of a dozen medical compounds passed into his nostrils. And,\nlastly, sight came to him nnd slowly\nhis eyes opened and he was able to\ndiscern things about him. And\nwhat a sight I He was not in a\ndissecting room, but in a doctor's\nollicer, shelves filled with buttles\nsolved the origin of tho odors. A\nbookcase well stocked stood in one\ncorner, while in another was a combination chair in which a patient\ncan be placed into almost any position. A skeleton strung on wires,\nwith the ghostly skull and pieces of\ndried flesh still hanging on to thn\nbones, was an unpleasant reminder\nof his own situation. He knew now\nhow ho came there. The men wero\ntwo medical students, who had\nrobbed his grave, and who proposed\nto cut him up after having a little\nfun with one of the professors. The\npangs of hunger made him faint, and\nhe searched tlio olllce for a morsel.\nHe found it behind the curtain,\nwhere it had evidently heen placed\nby the doctor's wife, who intended\nit for her husband when he should\nreturn home from a midnight call.\nHe never got it that night, for the\ncorpse did not leave as much as a\ncrumb behind. The meal despatched,\nCharles felt less like a dead man.\nYoung Marttndale hnd more norve\ntlmu the ordinary young man, but\neven Inr shuddered as he thought of\nwhat lie had passed through. The\nnext thing was to get aWHy. Now\nthut hit was himself again he had no\nidirn of being soused into a pickling\ntub nor of ornnmeiitiiig a dissecting\ntable, lie believed that he had\nanother destiny, and then tho\nthought of liis prist follies came to\nhim, nnd he almost wished that\nInr hnd not returned to this world,\nwhich nt Irent has its unpleasant\nside. Unmindful of his father's\nWarnings, he had borrowed money\nuntil lie irrrnld borrow no more, und\nliii wns tisliamed tn go Imck homo.\nHe went west and found employment, and has been there until his\nsudden reappearance to his astonished parents last night.\u00E2\u0080\u0094Toledo\ncor.

Baron DeWurrai added that the question of a settlement\nof the Alaskan fisheries dispute waa\nnow under consideration by the two\ngovernments concerned, but that it\nwould be premature at this moment to\nsay more than tbat her majesty's government have no reason to doubt that\na satisfactory arrangement will be arrived at.\n1TRITI8H TAXES.\nLondon, March 26.\u00E2\u0080\u0094The budget\nwhich wob submitted in the house of\ncommons by Mr. Goschen, the chancellor of the exchequer, this evening,\npossesses more novel features and creates a greater sensation than any similar presentation for many years. In\nthe expectation of something of this\ncharacter, thousands of persons tried\nto gain admission to the galleries long\nbefore the speaker took hia seat, but\nthe space allotted to strangers was already crowded to its full capacity.\nMinister Phelps and several other\nprominent Americana were present,\nfile budget separates the imperial\nfrom the local taxation but the manner\nof the division is not yet made clear.\nNew taxes are imposed upon all street\nvehicles exoept those used in the pursuit of husbandry and hackney coaches. The taxes of the latter named\nvehicles are, however, rearranged to\nthe end of lessening the rate of taxation. Pleasure and racing horses,\nhorse-dealers, choice wines and champagnes are inoluded in the list of increase, the latter paying 5 shillings a\ndozen. New companies are taxed at\ntbe rate of \u00C2\u00A31 per 1000 of their capital\nstock, and brokers' contracts pay 6\n?Bnce instead of a penny as formerly,\nhe budget also remits one penny of\nthe income tax, removes all taxes from\nstreet hawkers, and lowers the rate of\ntaxation upon land yielding a profitless\nhusbandry. The revenue of the Sun\ncanal shares is to devoted to the construction of new fortifications. The\nincreased penalty imposed upon brokers' contracts and new companies will\nbe certain to cause a disturbance in\nfinancial circles, while it is doubtful\nwhether the remittance of the tax\nhitherto paid by the street hawkers,\nwhich was designed to catch tbe proletariat, will result aa favorably to the\ngovernment as the hotel vote at the\nnext oleotion as the ministry is led to\nhope. The proposal to tax champagne\nfive (hillings a dozen was kopt vory\nquiet, and only leaked out this afternoon through the misplaced confidence\nof the ministry in one or two garrulous\nmemben.\nNO NEWS FBOM STiNLSV.

Large numbers of deputations, representing various protected\ninterest?, are haunting the American capital to protest against, tho\nwithdrawal of protection from tho\nmanufactures in whioh they are interested. Theppinion largely prevails among well-informed men on\nthia side of the boundary, however,\nthat the contemplated tariff revision\nwill materially assist United States\nmanufacturers to compete with much\nmora success in foreign markets.\nUnder tho proposed tariff the duty\nis to be taken off a number of articles which are used as raw material\nin American factories, which will\nenable them to obtain a better pro\nfit on goods for export than they cau\nnow have. But people who become\naccustomed to protection are very\nmuch like individuals who have been\nreceiving pensions from the government\u00E2\u0080\u0094they lose their independence\nand believe themselves no longer\nable by tlieir own unaided efforts to\nsucceed against competition.\nA resident of Dakota writes to\none of the Winnipeg papers to the\neffect that a large immigration from\nthat state to Manitoba may be\nlooked for as soon as the railway\nmonopoly has been abandoned.\nThousands of Canadians were driven\nfrom the Canadian northwest to the\nnorthwestern states (1) by the illiberal land laws which the Canadian government at first enforced;\n(2) by the high customs tariff; and\n(3) by tho railway monopoly. The\nland regulations havo been greatly\nimproved; and if the railway monopoly ceases, there will remain only\nthe high tariff as a grievance forthe\npeople north of the boundary. We\nhave always believed that the\nabandonment of tho monopoly would\nhave precisely the effect promised\nby this correspondent; and we havo\nmaintained that the impetus that\nwould be thus given to development\nin that country would be worth almost as much to tho railway company as the monopoly clause. Every\nadditional settler in Manitoba and\nthe northwest is an addition to the\ntraffic of the railway, and we shall\nbe greatly surprised if the abandonment of monopoly does not result in\na much larger immigration this year\nthan has ever before been known,\nSince the passing of the inter,\nstate commerce bill the American\ntrans-continental railways have\nsuffered greatly from the competi\ntion of the C. P. B., and it is now\nproposed that congress shall pass\nsuch legislation aB will place the\nCanadian road under restrictions.\nIt is not yet known what shape this\nlegislation may take. The presidents of the leading American railway companies have been invited\nto make such suggestions as may assist in determining upon an effective\nscheme, and several prominent lawyers are also said to be at work devising a measure that may accomplish the desired object without coming into conflict with international\nlaws. The 0. P. R. has several\nAmerican connections, and it carries\na large quantity of United States\nfreight in bond. It is quite likely\nthat congress may be able to effect\nits purpose by taking advantage of\nthese circumstances. Quite possibly\nthe astute managers of the 0. P. R.\nforesaw this movement and the anticipation of it may have hod something to do with bringing it into an\nagreement with the Northern Pacific. There is no doubt but the\nAmerican government will do whatever it oan to coerce the C.P.R. into\nan abandonment of tho policy of\ncutting rates which it has been pursuing ao as to protect American\nroads; and if this is successfully accomplished, it is very likely through\nrates to British Columbia will be affected to a certain extent.\nThe people of this oity are about\nunanimous in the opinion that the\nproposed ch\u00C2\u00BBnge in the publio sohool\naot which entails a large additional\nexpense upon the four cities is unjust and inexpedient, and ought not\nto become law. The additional cost\nthat will (all upon this city in con-\nsequence of the ohange will probably be about (1600. Itiswellknown\nthat onr revenue is now so swallowed\nup by fixed charges that the balance\navailable for publio improvements is\nnot much over $4,000 a year, This\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2urn is manifestly quite insufficient\nfor k progressive city, and if we are\nto be saddled with an additional\nsum of. 11600 * year for school purposes, without receiving anything in\nthe way of compensation, either\nour publio improvements must cease\nor we shall have to levy a very much\nheavier tax. We are particularly\nsurprised that the cities should be\ncalled upon to bear the burden of\npublio school education, while the\nhigh schools remain free nnd receive their support entirely from the\nprovincial revenue. If the govern-\nmenthrtd thrown upon alt municipalities the ooet of maintaining the\nhigh tehooli within their limits, the\nlaw wo\u00C2\u00ABM hare had the merit of\nbeing general at least, instead of\ndisonminating between different\nnmntirflnMttyipl \"A*0**1 ought\nto be free, but we have always held\nthat a moderate feo should bo\ncharged for high school education,\nThe proponed amendment begins at\ntho wrong end, aptl leads to an unjust discrimination, and we hope it\nwill berwitlMrnwn.

Fow\nrealize from the mere qnotationsof figures\nthe enormous extent of our great country.\n.For infiiance, Ontario ia larger than\nSpain, nearly as large as France, nearly\nas large as the great German Empire, oh\nlarge aa Sweden, Denmark and Belgium,\nand larger than Italy, Switzerland, Denmark, Belgium and Portugal.\nQuebec is as large as Norway, Holland,\nPortugal and Switzerland.\nBritish Columbia is as large as France,\nNorway and Belgium.\nNova Scotia and New Brunswick are\nas large as Portugal and Denmark;\nOntario and .Quebec are nearly as largo\nbb France, Italy, Portugal, Holland and\nBelgium.\nCanada is forty times as largo as England, Wales and Scotland cdmbiheill\nNew Soutli Wales contains an area of\n309,176 squars miles, und is larger than\nFranco, Italy and Sicily; and yet Canada\nwould make eleven countries tho size of\nNow South Wales. British India is large\nenough to contain a populotion of iMO\nmillions; and yet threo British Iudias\ncould be carved out of Canada, and still\nleave enough to mako a Queensland and\na Victor^. Canada is sixteen times as\nlarge as the great German Empire, witii\nits twenty-seven provinces, and its overshadowing, inflnouce in European affaire.\nThe great lakes of Canada contain an\narea of 110,000 Square miles. Lako Superior is 420 miles long, and contains an\narea of 32,000 square miles, or equal to\nthe size of Ireland, and is the largest\nliody of fresh water on the globe. Lake\nHuron stretches a distance of 280 miles,\nand covers an area of 21,000 square miles.\nLake Erie embraces a circuit of 700\nmiles; and, descending the Niagara, the\ncombined waters of the Upper Lukes\npour over the glorious cataract of that\nmighty river at the rate of 18,000,000\ncubic feet, or 700,000 tons a minute;\nLake Ontario, the smallest of the chain,\nis 180 milea Ions, and embraces a circuit\nof (100 miles. These maiuifiooMfc-freajh-\nwater seas, together with\" the 'majestic\nSt. Lawrence, form an unbroken water\ncommunication for 2,140 miles.\nCanada has also an ample coast lino\nboth on the Atlantic and the Pacitic,\nwhile Hudson's Bay and Straits will, in\nall probability, shortly afford au outlet\nforthe immense products of the great\nNorth-West.\nOur tisheries are the richest hi tlio\nworld. The deep sea fisheries of Canada,\nincluding those ofNewfoundland, yielded,\niu 1881, the enormous product of $20,*\n000,000, or about double the average value of the fisheries of tho United States,\nand nearly equal in value to tho whole\nrreduce of the British European fisheries.\nn 1885, the fisheries of Canada, alone\nyielded nearly 818,000,000. These fish-\ncries, the heritage of our people, and ouo\nof the principal sources of our wealth, aro\nvorth protecting; and wo will protect\nthem against tbo encroachments of the\nI United btates or any other power.\nOur magnificent forests arc of immense\nvalue, and contain no less than sixty-nine\ndifferent varieties of wood. In 1885 our\n\u00E2\u0096\u00A0exports of products of the forest amounted to $21,000,000.\nI Our mines, which arc yot in their iu-\n'fancy of development, give promise of\nVast wealth. Coal in abundance is found\nin Nova Scotia, New BrutiBwich, British\n'Columbia and the North-West Territories. Onr coal areas aro estimated ut\nupwards of 100,000 square miles, not including areas known, but as yet quite undeveloped, in the far North. Already\ncoal areas to the extent of 05,000 square\nmiles have been discovered in tho North-\n,Weat, while Nova Scotia and New\nBrunswick contain: 18,000 square miles\nof this important element of wealth.\nWhen it is remembered that the entire\ncoal area of Gnat Britain covers only\n11,900 square miles, tho extent of our\nresources in this direction will bo appreciated. Our coal areas are, in fact, tho\nlargest in the world, except those of tho\nUnited States. After these in order\ncome Russia, with 80,000 square miles,\nand Australia, with 25,000 square miles.\nCanada has also valuable mines of gold,\nsilver, iron, lead, copper and othor\n'metals. Tho gold mines of British Columbia have yielded during the past\ntwenty-five years over 250,000,000 worth\nof the precious metal, whito Nova Scotia\nhas, up to tho present, produced noarly\n,18,000.000 worth.\nWe have alio an abundant supply of oil\nto throw light upon the subject, and\nmake the whole machine run smoothly.\n\"A land that's rich aud free,\nIn heart, In bomo, in hope, in liberty.\nAn infant empire rising in the West,\nRocked by three oceans toa native rest;\ni A virgin soil, a freedom-loving land,\nA race that guard it with an iron hand.\"\nAlthough essentially an agricultural\noountry, it will be seen from the foregoing that Canada has the natural products\nand resources to make her one of the\n'groat manufacturing countries of the\nworld.\nIn agriculture our possibilities are\npractically unlimited j aud the rapidity\nof our development will be understood\nwhen it ia stated that of. the single article\nof cheese, which Ib but a young industry\nin our country, we exported in 1885 over\n160,000,000 pounds, in the Provinco of\nOatario alono, tho capital invested in agriculture, including farm lauds, farm\nstock and1 Implements, amounts to the\nenormous sum of $1,000,000,000, at compared with 980,000,000 invested in manufactures. The overshadowing importance of agriculture as the foundation of\nour prosperity and the source of our\nwealth, will bo understood from theso\nfigures,\nWhen tho present premier, Sir John\nMacdonald, entered publio life in 1844,\nCanada had but fourteen miles of railway. At Confederation, in 1807, they\nhad increased to 2,400 miles. To-day we\nhave upwards of 12,000 miles iu operation, representing the enormous value of\nover $025,000,000.\nThe rapidity of our progress may bo\nSithered from the fact that in 1868 we\nad but 8,500 miles of electric telegraph.\nTo-day we have ovor 00,000 miles, ta\nMSB*\nm\nwim\n1\nsides ah Important and growing telephone\nservice.\nCanada is the third maritime power of\nthe world, being oxceoded only by Great\nBritain and tho United States,\nThe trado of Canada is assuming highly respectable proportions, and gives further evidence of the energetic and enterprising character of our people. In 1868,\ntho flrat year of Confederation, our total\ntrade was S131.00O.0OO. In 1883 it had\ngrown to $230,000,000, nn increase of\n:-> 100,000,000, or an average of nearly\nS7,000,000 a year.\nThe press of Canada has kept pace with\nour progress in other respects, and is au\ninstitution of which wo have every reason to bu proud, Thore arc at present iu\nCanada abuut 650 publications,\u00E2\u0080\u0094newspapers, magazines, etc., over seventy of\nwhich are daily newspapers. The influence for good upon the people of a pure,\nclean, healthy press, such as we have in\nCanada can scarcely bo over -estimated.\nOur school system, especially in Ontario, is tlie finest in the world, and its\ngood results arc shown in the intelligence\nund progressive character of our people.\nThe banking capital of Canada, which\nmay bo regarded as a sort of thermometer\nindicating our progress commercially,\nwas, iu 1870 \u00C2\u00A730,000,000. Today, including reserves, it amounts to \u00C2\u00A780,000,000,\nan increase of ovor 250 per oeut. The\nnotes of chartered bunks in circulation\namount to about $33,000,000. In 1868\nthe deposits by tho peoplo in the chartered and savings banks were $37,000,000.\nTo-day they amount to no less a sum\nthan $148,500,000, an increase of over\n400 per cent. In 1868 the discounts given by tho chartered banks of Canada\nwere \u00C2\u00A310,500,000. To-day they are\n$165,000,000, an increase of over 300 per\ncent. The bank of Montreal, a purely\nCanadian institution, is the largest, wealthiest, most influential and widely-extended banking corporation in tho world\nunconnected with Government.\nOur public works especially evidence\ntho pluck, energy and enterprise of the\nCanadian people, The Canadian Pacific\nRailway, that mighty trans-continental\nline, recently completed from ocean to\nocean, binding tho scattered parts of this\nvast Confederation together, is the longest railway in the world, and is the most\nstupendous public enterprise ever undertaken and successfully accomplished by a\ncountry of the population of this Dominion, The Intercolonial Railway, connecting Quebec with tho Maritime Provinces, covers 800 miles and cost over\n840,000,000, while the Grand Trunk Railway was, until the completion of tho\nCanadian Pacific, tlie longest railway in\ntho world under ouo management, its\ntotal length being 3,300 miles, Great\nthings are confidently looked for in the\nway of Aaiatio and Australian trade by\ntho opening of tho Canadian Pacifio Railway, Aand when tho projected line of\nsteamers on the Pacific connecting therewith is an accomplished fact this route\nwill doubtless becomo the greatest highway to the East.\nAlready the British Government, feeing tho benefits to be derived from thia\nroute by shortening the time and distance\nto its Eastern possessions, has granted\nthe C.P.R. a subsidy of \u00C2\u00A345,000annually.\nCanada has constructed 73 miles of\ncanals at a cost of nearly $30,000,000.\nThe noble bridge that spans the St.\nLawrence at Montreal, and named after\nour beloved Queen, is a triumph of engineering skill, and is considered one of\nthe wonders of the world.\nTlie magnificent pile of Parliament\nbuildings at Ottawa is a monument to\nthe gooa taste aud the national aspirations of the Canadian people. The capital of Ontario, the Queen City of the\nwest, is oue of the most beautiful, aa well\nas progressive, cities on the continent;\nwhile Montreal, the commercial metropolis of Canada, for picturesque beauty of\nsituation and general attractiveness is\ndeservedly ranked with the most beautiful cities of the continent. The ancient\ncity of Qucboc, around which so much\nhistoric interest clusters, as having formed the nucleus of civilization on this continent, ia at onco one of the most strongly-\nfortified, as well as romantic and interesting cities of the world.\nIn no country is wealth so evenly\ndistributed as in Canada. Here we have\nfewer very wealthy men, and less poverty\nthan are to be found in any other land in\nproportion to population. Here any\nperson who is sober and industrious can\nobtain tho necessaries and even the comforts of life, while our unrivalled educational Bpstem affords to the poor an equal\nchance with the rich in tlie struggle for\nthe higher positions in life.\nWo aro deeply grateful for, aB well as\npardonably proud of, tho high position\noccupied by our beloved country in regard to the various moral questions that\nagitate the civilized world. In no other\ncountry is the Sabbath more sacredly observed, or the sanctity of tho marriage\ntie more rigidly respected. In no nation\nlias the cause of temperance made greater;,\nprogress; and God grant-that to Canada'\nmay- belong. the glorious distinction of\nbeing the first great civilised country to\ntotally banish and prohibit the baneful\nand Boul-dcstroying traffic in intoxicating\nliquors.\nCanada has also an abundance of varied\nand magnificent scenery, a bracing and\ninvigorating climate, n hardy, self reliant,\nindependent-spirited peoplo, unequalled\nou this round world for those high, noble\nand manly qualities that go to constitute\na great, a free, and a progressive people.\nAnd who, with tongue or pon, shall\nattempt to describe the beauties or eiiu-\nme.-utu the chu ma of tho gentle sex of\nour fail- Dominion f As well attempt\n'to paint the lily or to gild roflnod gold.\"\nI therefore refrain.\nI trust the increased interest which\nhas been displayed of late years in the\nstudy of our country's history, and the\ninvestigation of her immense resources\nand glot-louB possibilities, may continue,\nand that tho result may be the development of a strong, vigorous oiid healthy\nnational sentiment.

In\ntownship 7, east of the Hall's prairio\nroad, and from tlio lino between townships 7 and 10, thero arc no roads\nwhatever, uud settlers are obliged to\npack everything in on tlieir bucks,\nwhich iB a very laborious and disagreeable task, it is impossible to get cattle across the country owing to tho\nnumerous streams Mocked by fallen\ntimber and beaver dams, which makes\nthe land so Boft and boggy that animals ore invariably mired if an attempt\nis made to get them back to the homesteads off the rond. Almost every section has been taken up in this part of\nthe district, hut live settlors have lately\nthrown up their claims, us they could\nneither get cattle onto tlieir farms or\nproduce to market. A road built\nthrough the township at a cost of\n82000 would serve the present purposes, and the Bottlers would be well\npleased, but unless this is done a number more of tlio homesteaders will bo\nobliged to throw their claims up, A\npetition has gone forward asking the\ngovernment to make a road through\nthis section, and it is to be hoped they\nwill see the advisability of immediate\naction in the matter.\nThe Library Concert.\nTho concert in aid of the public li\nbrary tunic place last night in Herring's\nopera house; and was largely attended.\nTho programme was opened by the\nHappy Hottentots in ono of their excellent selections, which was well received by the audience, Mr. Hamber\nthen sang \"Kathleen Mavournoen \" in\ncapital style, after which Miss Higginson sang \" WiU you remember me,\"\nvery sweetly, and was enthusiastically\nencored. This was Miss Higginson's\ndebut beforo a Westminster audience,\nand a most successful one it was. The\ninstrumental duet by Miss Rand and\nMiss Hill was played in that perfect\nstyle and feeling for whicli botli these\naccomplished young ladies are noted.\nMr. Glover recited \"The wrock of the\nJulia Plante\" and as an encore sang\n\"The Raffle for a Stove\". The duet\n\"Maying', byMissMcBrideund Mr.\nKeary was really an excellent performance, and was one of the best pieces of\nthe evening. . Miss McBride has not\nappeared before tho public for some\ntime, but it iB to be hoped her sweet\nvoice will not again bo allowed to remain silent for so long n period.\n\"Ehren (rn tho Rhine,\" by Mr. Rickman, called for nn encore, buth of\nwhich were given in that rattling stylo\nfor which this favorite is noted. NAt\nthis point tho curtain was lowered and\nin a few minutes raised revealing tu\nview twelve gallant volunteers with\nSergt D'Amour at their head. On tho\nword of command the men advanced,\ntook position for bayonet exorcise and\nthen went through the different movements in 'a very cretlitablo manner.\nTho men were then divided into two\nparties and advanced to the charge in\na very realistic stylo, crossed swnrds\nand placed a couplo of mon hor* de\ncombat, on which scene the curtain\nfell. The ''Happy Hottentots\" onco\nmore favored the audience with a capital selection and in answer to tho encore gave \"St, Patrick's Day\" in\nsplendid style. ''The Quaker,\"\nby Mr. Keary, was awarded with\nthunders of applause, and although\nthis gentleman tried to evade the on-\ncore demanded, it waa not allowed,\nand he was obliged to respond.\nMiss Sutherland sung \" Take back the\nRing\" with much feeling and sweetness and was most heartily applauded.\n\" Billy McQee,\" by Mr. Glover called\nfor an eneore which was partially given. An instrumental selection by\nMiss DeBeck and Miss Rand was given\nin a masterly manner and cannot be.\ntoo highly praised. \" Never to Part,\"\nby Mrs. Moresby was rendered both\ngracefully, sweetly and in perfect taste,\nand in responso to the encore demanded \"The Flag that Braved\" was givon\nin a very taking style. The camp scene\nfollowed, and was a most successful\nexhibition. Several songs wore sung,\naccompanied by a little side play ;\nthe wholo was pronounced a success.\nThe tent, camp fire, stacks ol. rifles\nand sentries on beat were ail very realistic and gave general satisfaction.\nOol.
