WASHINGTON, April 2O.-In relation to Mica
raguan Affairs many speculations ave INDUCED,
and some Of the statements concerning them
are doubtless Internationally erroneous. The
true state Of the question is ascertained to 10
that the treaty recently returned is, with one
exception, entirely acceptable to this govern
ment, which has heretofore assented to its
provisions
No doubt is entertained that the treaty win
be modified by Nicaragua in accordance with
the wishes OF this SJv'I. BY this treaty Nicar
aqua engages to use the necessary force to keep
the transit route open, but fiat any time should
fail to do SO, the United States have n right to
land troops TO protect the persons and property
Of its citizens.

Sabbath School Celebrations in
Greensboro and Hardwick.

Mr.. EDIToR,-I had supposed that
either the secretary of the day, or some
one else, would before this time, have
furnished your paper with an account of
the recent very interesting Sabbath School
celebration at Hardwick street; but hay-
ing thus far looked for it in vain, now
conclude to attempt few words with re-
gard to it, and other similar occasions of
former years, myself You are probably
aware that to Orleans County, belongs
the credit of the first Sabbath School or
ganization in the State. At least it is
not known that when in Juue 1914, Col.
Asahel Washburn, assisted by others, or
ganised Sabbath School in Greensboro,
an institution of the kind existed within
the limits of our commonwealth. Mid
dleburv has indeed claimed the credit of
the first Sabbath School; but none was
organised there previous to 1915, one
year later than that in Greensboro
Hardwick has been little disposed to
contest the claim of priority with Green's
boro, but without success. 1t is said by
the good people of Hardwick, that as
early as 1912 or 1913, Rev. Mr.. Raw
son, then preaching there, had Biblical
and Catechetical school, and that several
of them to this day will remember por-
tons of scripture, &c, which while con-
nected with that school they committed
to memory. This, say some, was previ-
GUS to the organization of the Sabbath
School in Greensboro, and hence why
should Greensboro bear the palm2 But
now, when it is remembered that Mr..
/ Rawson's exercises were held on FRIDAYS
and not on the Sabbath and that COL
Washburn held similar exercises in
Greensboro, for two years or more pre-
vious to the organization Of the Sabbath
School, properly 50 called, and that too,
not on Fridays, but on the Sabbath, is IT
not as clear as day that to Greensboro
belongs the honor of precedence in tie
matter of Sabbath School organization ?
To be sure, Hardwick was among the
first IN this matter, and nobly has she
come up to the good work from those
days of yore, to the present time. But is
it certain even, that the Sabbath School
in Greensboro was the only one in Or
leans County when one vas organized in

The Frazer River gold mines have
finally exploded---quite as much OF
humbug as those Of Pixies Peak, on the
other side Of the mountains. The inn
mediate future, which, in the excitement
of the gold discoveries, was predicted
for British Columbia, now exists only in
fancy. 4t-was chimera, and the fates
are against its anticipated realization
Every mail from Victoria, Y. l., brings
US papers filed with sad, almost pitiful
walls and i'll forebodings. It would be an
easy matter to sum up the profit and be-
.neft of this last huge gold humbug to
those experienced; bat not SO the mi
sery sustained in the sway of loss of life

this serves TO teach US the great lesson
which such hazardous chases after gold
should teach, it will be useful and profit

If it but makes us own that "our indis-
cretions sometimes make US wise when
our deep plots do fall" then so much
shall we be benefited by the experience
Of the Frazer river gold excitement.

Its superior advantages in raising stock.
/ This season-there has been quite an ex-
odus from Oregon to that country of per-
sons wishing to avail themselves of its
eminent advantages. If judicious
and fair course is pursued by our govern
ment towards the Indians, and the pres
ent induces are favorable, we need have
no further trouble, nor further barrier to
the settlement and population of that de.
sirable country. Gen. Harney's policy
thus far has been mild, yet firm,-in al
respects such as will secure the best pos
sible results. Several of the chiefs o
the interior tribes east of the Cascade!
were lately engaged in consultation
with Gen. Harvey, after which they de
cided to pay Us visit, and passed through
our principal towns, very much to thei
ediication and delight. They will g

the whites and their visit will have tn

hostility. We need immigration to pop

REPLY TO " ONE WHO WAS THERE"


Mr. EDITOR: Fearing that the
people of Stanstead may be put into
false position, in relation to their
late County Temperance Celebra-
ton, by Zone who was there" |
take the liberty to say few words
in reply to his communication in
your last issue.
This meeting was the first of a
series of meetings provided for by
the constitution of the Stanstead
County Temperance Society, to be
held in the various towns in the
county at stated intervals. When
it was decided to hold the first at
Stanstead, the manner of conduct
ing them was the subject of enquiry
and discussion by gentlemen from
various parts of the county; the
propriety of getting up a free din
ner, was one of the points to settle.
The delegates from Stanstead were
in favor of furnishing one free, but
others objected, saying that STAN
stead was able and could do it, and
would by so doing estabIisha prece-
dent that some other towns might
feel quite unable to follow; and by
the particular request of some
prominent gentlemen in the north
part Of the county, the free dinner
project was abandoned.
Thessaboye | conceive a sufficient
apology for a seeming neglect to
furnish not only a0ne," but all
4who were there with free din
ner.
It seems to me, Mr.. EDITOR, that
your correspondent should have
governed himself by the hand-bills
and advertisements thrown out on
the occasion. He must needs know
that if they intended any such thing,
they would have announced it in
their bills. He says it was in the
woods, and further, that the Presi-
dent and Marshal urged people to
the table, &c.
1t was in the woods because it
was convenient, cool, pleasant
place to accommodate large com
pany in a hot day, and was really
worth a quarter of dollar more,
for being had in SO delightful a
place. So much he makes, not be-
ing taxed anything extra.
What the President and Marshal
said privately, by way of getting
people to the table, / am unable to
say; but being another that was
there, | know that publicly they said
nothing that should be construed
into coming the "city" over the
green Ones"
The first part of the communica-
ton of One" is well written, and
pays a just compliment to the
speakers, notwithstanding his disap-
pointment in not hearing the emf
nent speakers from abroad, but there
are some expressions in other parts
OF it that viii not look well to him
on re-perusal, when applied to a
place that stands second to none
for taste and liberality in matters
of that kind.
Last spring they had a meeting
at the chapel on the Plain, the larg.
est in size that have attended for
years, and one Of the most bounti.
| full repasts erey sap on snch an oc.
casion. It was just the occasion for
One that was NOT there, for he
would then have had no occasion for
complaint, as il was free.
