KE A TIN G'S PALE NEWFOUNDLAND
COD LIVER OIL.—Having frequently examined
samples of PALE COD LIVER OIL, as imported by Mr.
Trios. KEATING, I can testify that it is uniformly of the best
and purest quality that can be desired or obtained, possess-
ing as it does the nutrient properties of that valuable medi-
cine in the highest degree, unassociated at the same time
with any disagreeable and irritating qualities resulting from
the presence of decayed matter, thus making it an exception
in respect of purity from many of the oils so abundantly ad-
vertised.

THE COLUMBIA MISSION.

Thursday being the anniversary of the consecra-
tion of the Bishop of Columbia, a public meeting in
aid of the mission, which was founded by Miss
Burdett Coutts about three years ago under memo-
rable circumstances in that distant colony, was held
at the London Tavern. There was a large attend-
ance of persons who took an interest in the mission,
many of them being clergymen and ladies. The
Lord Mayor had been invited to take the chair,
and around him on the platform were the Bishops
of Oxford, London, and Honolulu, the Hon. Arthur
Kinnaird, M.P., Mr. Gregson, M.P., Sir Harry
Verney, M.P., Mr. Norris, M.P. Mr. Hanbury,
M.P., Mr. John Abel Smith, Sir John Kay Shuttle-
worth, the Rev. G. R. Gleig (Chaplain to the
Forces), Mr. G. P. Arden (Financial Secretary to
the Mission), the Rev. W. Tennent, the Rev. J. V.
PoTah, the Rev. C. Marshall, the Rev. W. Denton
the Rev. C. B. Dalton, the Rev. W. W. Ellis, the
Rev. T. J. Rowsell, the Rev. A. Day, Mr. Bod-
kin, Captain F. Petrie, Mr. P. Cazenove, and
Mr. Arthur Colville. The Chancellor of the
Exchequer had intended to be present, but was pre-
vented by an attack of rheumatism. Among the
ladies who occupied seats in front of the platform
were the Countess of Falmouth, Miss Burdett
Coutts, the Lady Mayoress, and Mrs Tait.
The LORD MAYOR, assuming the object of the
meeting was generally known, said he was grati-
fied to see so large an assembly of persons ani-
mated by the desire to help on a work of such in-
calculable importance.
The Rev. JOHN GARRETT, vicar of St. Paul, near
Penzance, and commissary to the Bishop of Colum•
bia, read a number of interesting extracts from a
letter by the last mil from the principal of the
mission, affording some touching insight into the
life of a missionary in the colony. Of those extracts
one may be selected :—" Though this note is con-
fidential, and not intended for the public ear, there
is one thing which you may make public—nay,
even proclaim upon the housetops. It is this—the
cure for what, if left alone, will ultimately ruin re-
ligion and morals in this fine country—l mean an
emigration of white women from Great Britain.
Dozens of men have told me they would gladly
marry if they could. I was speaking one evening
on the subject of the dearth of females, and men-
tioned my intention of writing to beg that a plan
of emigration may be set on foot; whereupon one
member of the company immediately exclaimed,
Then, sir, I pre-empt a wife'—(a laugh)—another,
and another, and all round the circle of those
listening to me earnestly exclaimed the same.
Fancy the idea of pre-empting a wife ! Yet, I
assure you, this touches at the root of the greatest
blessing which can now be conferred upon this
colony from home. Think of the 600,000 more
women at home than there are men, and then
think what society must be here. Churches may and
• must be built, our faithful witness must be borne
for holiness and virtue, but where there is no
wedded life, church-going must be difficult, because
morality is almost impossible." He adds, " I need
say no more to induce you to use your efforts to pro-
mote the emigration to this colony of somo good
respectable young women. If you succeed in hav-
ing this done, you will confer an unspeakable benefit
upon British Columbia." But the greatest and most
important part of the district, as it is by far the
most important part of the colony, is to the north
and north-east, 300 miles from here—the Cariboo
country, which this summer's experience has shown
to be one of the richest gold regions in the world.
