c. Cavaroc, Esq. President BaEbasln Gas Lighting
Company:
STR can not refrain from complimenting you
for the invaluable service you have rendered to
families residing in the suburbs of the city, and
more or less every night exposed to accidents re-
suiting from the explosion Of coal oil lamps.
Your generous aid to Messrs. Barbarin Dupas
soon had the effect of removing all apprehensioas
for the safety Of our families and homesteads.
The gas apparatus put mp m my premises, under
the supervision of Mr.. Barbarin. works admirably
since four weeks. The light 10 excellent, and Ne
great cheapness makes it specially eommenda6se
In this connection permit me to congratulate ysu
ysor selection of Mr.. Cast, who superntends the
laying Of the pipes. His work rs admirably per
formed.
With the earnest hope that this great improve
naent IN lighting will soon be known by all and that
the results Of this enterprise viii be conn,eA.
surate with its many fold benefits, remain.
Very respectfully. A. CASTAENG.

Charles cavaroc, ESQ, President Barbarin Gas
Lighting Company:
DEAR SlR-It affords me pleasure to state that the
operation Of the gas machine, for sixteen lights.
put up by your company in my dwelling, has
proved to be entirely satisfactory. Since the
second day of October last the gas has been
burned nightly, at an average Of eight (Argand
burners) lights, from early dusk until about eleven
O'Clock, and one light all night. The light ia, in
every respect, all that could possibly be desired.
It is perfectly safe, and is superior to coal gas in
brilliancy, the light being softer and much easier
to read or write by.
The simplicity Of the machine is such that any
member Of ing family can attend to it during my
absence.
Vssy respectfully,
nsSs9 ? eta E. l. WeGenaE.

oDlised 10 go over TO our American cousIns
in order to obtain employment that will bs

with two or three hundred dollars In coid
each, they have golden arguments for closer
connection with the United States.
At public meeting recently held at Meri-
gomish, in Pictou county, the most densely
populated and wealthiest county in Nova
Scotia, for the purpose of discussing the
causes of the depressed state of trade In Nos
va Scotia, and the present unsatisfactory state
of affairs generally, the following resolution
was unanimously passed:
Whereas, After fair trial of about three
years under Confederation, we see no IN
provement in the business interests OIL our
country but rather the reverse; our taxes
have been largely increased, directly and indt.
rectly; there is no money III circulation; our
young men and women, for want OF remuner.
ative employment, are leaving their native
country and going to the United States In
greater numbers than usual:
Resotued, That in the opinion of this meet.

taken by the members of our local legisla-
ture, looking towards annexation to the Uni-
ted States, by which alone the elevation and
prosperity of our country can be secured.

Look 10 Your Bees.

The last was poor season for bees and very
little honey was stored. The open winter has
caused such colonies as are on their simmer
stands to consume much more honey than II
the winter had been steady cold. (Bees can
stand a steady cold winter much better than
one like the presently Probably one-half Of
the outdoor colonies that are alive to day
will starve to death before they can gather
honey from the Spring flowers. A very little
care and expense win save such fhon-s hasriA
death and they in return will amply repay you
next Fall. Besides, judicious feeding even to
bees that have honey enough will cause them
to feed their queen, who will commence lay
ing, and thus they will breed faster and swarm
earlier; and every one knows that one early
swarm Is worth several late ones. An cx-
pense of 25 cents to one dollar per hive will
save them from starvation and save to you
hive worth from fifteen to twenty-five dollars.
So do not neglect them or put It of and guess
they will come out all right if you lot them
alone till SPRING -' s-'
My way of feeding Is to dissolve sugar In
water to the consistency of their honey. This
I give them daily in a little tin feeder, ION
which there is no patent,) a specimen Of which
can be seen at my store. Its cost Is not more
than ten cents and any tin smith can make
them; they can be applied to any kind of bivs.
II too much feed Is given the bees will store
1t in the cells and thus prevent the queen
fiom depositing her eggs, consequently pre-
venting the raising of young bees; hence Isay
jadicious feeding. Bees are very snort lived,
and some persons will be surprised to know
that in the busy part of the season they actu-
ally work and wear themselves oat 10 or 10
weeks; the queen, the meantime, laying from
one thousand to three thousand eggs per day,
thus keeping up the numerical force of tue
colony. But such bees as are bred late In the
Fall, having but little work to do, will live uu.
til Spring, just long enough to clean cut
the hive and start the young bees in house.
keeping, when they gradually disappear. The
queens live three. four, or five years, and even
longer. Take care Of your Bees. b.

The Celerea senator.

The Washington correspondent of the
Journal Of Commerce writes as follows:
Hon. Hiram r. Revels, is a very light mu-
latto, fully three-fourths white, yet with dis
tinctive African features, the lower part of the
face vigorous without being heavy. He has
short grizzled hair, which If permitted 10
grow, would certainly be kinky, while his
brown beard, slightly gray, might pass ior .
white mans. His face has q business ex-
preston, rather commercial than clerical. he
has cool steady expression. His perceptives
are full, and he has clear penetrating eye,
subdued to correspond with bis novel posi-
tion as the solitary representative man Of col
or. He has decidedly Caucasian nose, straight
prominent, but not fiat. The most Ethiopian
feature which he possesses is bis mouth. Thia
is usually shut close and firm, so that the
large lips are not very prominent. Hehas su
amiable expression, is not presuming, and
seems to wish sincerity, as the pioneer of biz
race, to make good impression. He dressed
plainly and tasteiulIy in black, without other
ornament than chain tipped with gold, and
uses plain pair OF eye glasses. He is in the
prime OF life, forty-seven years OF age, heavy
set, weighing about one hundred and eighty
pounds. III I8 --1
9 He appears to be man of good mental cul.
ture and balanced judgment, not disposed to
push himself forward unless 10 case of real me-
cessity, and where be would probably exert an
influence that would be felt. He has already
been active in the educational interests of the
South, and spoke at length two days ago on
behalf of the poor OF both races in Mississippi
in the Senate Committee on Education and
Labor, OF which he is member. Members
of the committee are Unanimous In their ap-
probation OF the speech. Kevels was in the
border and Northern States till 1894, when he
went to Mississippi, established himself a. Q
Methodist minister, and was elected, as Is well
known, to the United States Senate.

CAPT. HALL, the indefatigable explorer
who was in Washington Saturday endeavor-
ing to obtain an appropriation of 100000 to
provide the Decessaries of his voyage inteuds
to fit out steam propeller OF one hundred
and fifty tons, and a topsail schooner Of one
hundred and twenty-five tons. His route
as now projected, will be into Jones's Sound,
and thence, as sea and land may permit, up
towards the Pole. After getting the vessels
as far as practicable, he proposes to secure
them in barbor, making the rest of the dis
taEce by means Of the Esquimaux dogs and
sledges. The object Of the voyage Is OF q
three fold character: first, for geographical
discovery; second, for the advancement Of tne
Interests OF science; and third, for com.
mand. If he cannot Get the money to do
this he will try to have a Government vessel
detailed to carry him az FIR as Hare t,ne Bay,
