CANAp,.-The British Coonists says il was cur.

Gazette says, "We learn that the light company OF
the Goth Regiment, now in the Garrison, are under
marching orders for Madawpsca, relieve the detach
men Of troops stationed at that post whose period
of service there has expired"
SIR JOHN HARvEy.-The following appears in a
Fredericton paper of December 26-aluding to the
recent report Of Sir John Harvey's removal from
New Brunswick.
As the report would naturally excite much anxiety
in the province, where his liberal and equitable govern
meni is duly appreciated and its loss would be felt
great calamity, we have made the necessary inqui
ries, and are happy to state that His Exceency has
not heard one syllable the subject of command in
Syria. We observe it is since contradcted in the

ORPHAN ASYLUM.
REPORT


Ofhe Board of Managers Of the " flashing
Ton City Orphan Asyium," for the year
1871.
Another revolution Of the "silent wheels oil
time" having brought us to the close OF the year.
the usual Annual Report OF the Board OF MANA
gers OF the Washington City Orphan Asylum
is presented to those who have kindly aiueu IN
supporting this institution and as the israeiites
were commanded TO bring their earliest fruits
as an Offering TO the Lord, so our hrst expires.
sions must be those of gratitude to the God OF
Mercy, that his protection has oeen as 'ne sha-
dow of great rock in weary land" 10 those
who, bereft of their earthly guardians stand
supported by the viewess might of their Father
in Heaven.
Within the last twelve months the whitening
hand Of sickness has but rarely touched the in
mates of the Orphans home: one infant spirit
has been translated to higher world-the only
death which has occurred among the little band
for some years. Since the last report was made,
five children have been received into the lnsti'
tuition, and three placed out; the present mum,
Der is twenty -four, six of whom are males, and
eighteen females.
The Treasurer's accounts show the receipts OF
the past year to have amounted TO Sll47 81
The disbursements 10 1887 81
A small amount remaining in the Treasury
from the receipts of the preceding year, has en-
abled the Institution 10 meet this additional ex.
penditure
Among other very kind contributions, the
Board of Managers gratefully acknowledge the
receipt of SIP from the Masonic Fraternity,
and 800 from lady Of this city and they
avail themselves of this occasion to return their
sincere thanks TO these, and all other friends who
hive looked with an eye of pity on their hap
less charge. May their own blessings be made
more sweet to them by the remembrance that
they have aided in tightening the burden of the
weary, in gladdening the heart Of the desolate
The Board cannot close their Report without
again breathing their fervent gratitude TO Him
who rules the hearts of men, that in every hour
of need their wants have been supplied; and
although on account of the extreme lowness OF
their Treasury, they may at times have expert
enced some dark forbodings for the coming year
they now trust and believe that
at can bring with it nothing
But God will bear them through,
Who gives the lilies clothing
Will clothe his people too
Beneath the spreading heavens
No creature but is fed,
And He who feeds the rarens
Will give his chdred bread"

FOR THE MADIsoNfAN

| FOR THE MADIsoNiAN.
A fair specimen of the kind of economy which has
been pursued by the public officers for several years
past particularly in relation to the partzan press is
exhibited in the "Gobe" of Saturday evening last.
| Upon examining side Of that paper, you will
perceive proclamation, dated LIST of October, 1910,
published the fifteenth Of that month and to be con-
tinued until the 22d March next, for the sale of the
Wabash and Erie Canal lands in March, occupying
81 or % squares. In the next column you have
another proclamation of two squares, issued on the
18th November, stating that the sales would take
place in February, and now you will find another
side third proclamation dated the 9th inst and be
published until the 9TH of June next by which those
sales postponed until that month.
proclamation of two squares it will be seen, was
sufficient notice that the saes would take place sooner
than was first contemplated but now, not only are
three squares required TO notify the public of their
pos tponement but the whole body of this first procla-
nation making about II squares more, mus, be APP
pended thereto for the sole purpose, it would
of making job for the printer and these several
procamaons also il is to be presumed be trans
ferred TO the columns of numerous other papers, in
order that their Editors may Likewise be enabled in
pendtures at the present time
This, however, is not the only objection to the
course which has been pursued for its pedency
if not propricty must be apparent, when by the
nued insertion of all three proclamations person
by perusing column Of the paper may be forcedby
convinced by proclamation, that the sales will take
place in March, while others, by referring 10 other
columns of the same paper, may by the same kind of
evidence be equally convinced that they in Feb
rnary, or in June.
A Wing might think in the simplicity Of his heart,
that when new proclamation published the old
should be discontinued and thus money saved and
pre- ented but that would not be the way to
pay the printer for his disntercsted argument to con-
vince the people Of the practical economy Of the pow
ers that be, but are not to be.
