Of Interest to Teachers From a circular just issued from the Education Department we take the following items, which will be of use to teachers: The High Sqllool Ent- rance and Public School Leaving exam- ition for 1896 will begin Tuesday, June Di, at 8.43 a in. The course of study prescribed for the examinations is that given in the Revised Regula- tions, excpt that physiology and temp- eranse take tne place of botany at the public school leaving examinstions. Any misunderstanding on the part of candidates regarding the requite- inents is to be dealt with by the loyal bo ird in settling results, The revised Regulations do not, as formerly, call for the presentation of book work in !writing, drawing, etc., at either the High School Entrance or Public School Leaving exams. For the latter exam- ination, book work, if presented by candida.es, is to 1s3 taken into account, as last year, in view of the special pro- visions announcr d for 1898. James Vincent Cleary, Archbishop of Kingston, who died on Thursday last, was bern on the 18th day of September, 1828, in Dunarven, a sea- port town in the county of*Waterford..

Wedding Bells s Tuesday, Feb. 1st, Joseph' church, Ashfield was the scene of a very pretty wedding, when Nellie, daughter of the late John Sullivan, was united in the holy bonds of mat- rimony to Mr. Nlichaet O'Connor, of Walkerton. As both are deservedly popular, there was a large attendance at the Nuptial Ma..s, which was cele- brated by our esteemed pastor, Rev. N. Dixon. Although the day was stormy and cold the sun did not cease to shine from early morn which helped probably to make the young tieople brighter if possible for the occasion. The bride was becomingly costumed in a suit of garnet velvet, trimmed with white satin and fur, with toque to match, and was attended by Miss Kate O'Connor, sister of the grootn, who was similarly attired, with large ac bl' k velvet hat trimmed to match The groom was ably supported by Mr. Jere Sullivan. Two little nieces, aliases Marie Sullivan, and Margare M. Dalton, acted as maids of honor; both looked sweet in suits of cream serge and lace, with cream silk hats and carrying large boquets of bridal roseain their hands, while little John 5 Dalton and John P. Sullivan wero the pages and performed their parts very nicely. As they marched up the aisle to the alter. the "Wedding March" was ably rendered by the organist, Miss Hattio Noble,and during the mass, Miss Maggie Lamber tus and Misr; K. Sullivan, sang a duet which was pleasingly effective. After service at the church was ended, the bridal party with their immediate neighbors and friends, Rev. Father Dixon arid the choir, (of which the bride has ben a member from child- hood,) (hove to the residenee of the bride's mother, where a sursptuous repast was in readiness. Soon they were ushered to the spacious dining room, which was beautifully decorated with festor ns of evergreens and flowers. After justice had been done the many good things provided. Rev. Father Dixon spoke at some length on the qualities of the bride. Reeve Dalton cOnsidered Mr. O'Connor a usky as well as a happy man. Gaoler Griffin, of Godericb, wished the young couple long life, prosperity and every happi- ness. Telegrams of congrate)atione were received from Chicauo, and 4ew York.

Canieron, Lueknow. • This is to certify that in the last week in December 1897, Mr. Cameron put one of his puinps in my wel4, which is one of the deepest in this section, being 63 feet deep, and I must say it worked to perfection, and in every sense satisfactory. , My little girl, 5 years old, could pump it with ease. After this test we put on 18 feet more piping on the pump and the pump still forced the water out of the top with as great force and with as much ease as with the 63 feet. Then we placed the 18 feet horizontal and I believe we could hey° forced the water almost any distance and al there was only 11 inches cf water in the well, I consider this test one of the best, and I would say, anyone wisning a good, servicable, strong pump, casaoc do better than buy one of these pumps.
