Presbyterianism,in Canada.
1 Some recently published figures iu Can-
ada show that the Presbyterian ohurcli has
taken a firm hold upon the people of Cana-
da and that it makes most encouraging pro-
gress. Since 1817 it has increased 600 per
cent, in Prince Edwards Island, and in New
Brunswick the increase has been seven -fold.
- In Nova Scotia it has multiplied itself by six,
In Quebec the increase of members is from
15,000 to 50,000 and the congregations have
inoreased.from 3 to 60. lu 1817 Ontario
had 32,000 Presbyterians and nine ministers,
and now it has 418,000 Presbyterians and
550 ministers. In the north-west there was
in ,1882, •only 1 minister, now there are 328
-congregations and stations, with 4,350
families and 94 ministers. The money
-• raised in 1875 was $982,672, in 1881 it was
$1,558,218.

Oyster Supper.
On Thursday evening last after the rege-
Is.r meeting of Court Harmony, Canadian
Order of Foresters, in Exeter, the members
and a number of invited friends, including
representatives of the press. assembled at
the "Metropolitan,” Rept by J. A Hayes, and
partook of oysters and other edibles, which
mine hostesi had prepared in excellent
style. After the bivalves and other good
things were disposed of, the party repaired
to the sitting room, where a social time was
spent, some displaying musical powers, others
their oratorical abilities. Frequent allusion
was made in the addresses to the excellent
and highly satisfactory manner in which Mr.
Hayes andfamily preparedfzr and entertain-
ed the gathering. Nfembers of the Order
who gave addresses referred to the progress
of the Court here since its organization and
showed the benefit of being identified with
the society. At respectable hour the as-
sembly dispersed by singing the National
Anthem in good loyal style. The evening
was indeed very pleasantly spent.

"Tinder the Femmr'.'
For the last week or so the Salvation
army have created considerable excitement
snd often confusion in their meetings by
i•some of thelsoldiers getting-ae they call it-
-Funder the power." They become nneon-
.i
scious, their limbs stiffen and they lie �pros-
, some
,,,trate on the floor for hours ata time, s
of ,them with their 'arms projected upward.
+=While in this "happy" condition, in which
'they profess to see heavenly yisions and en-
;.joy' foretastes of heaven, they claim to be
a goingon around
oblivion, to all that is
them,. and cannot feel the touch of any per-
son. On Sunday evening there were about
Half -a -dozen in the conditionee we have
described, and several young men of the
town, who wero at the meeting, went up to
the platform to investigate and ascertain if
the unconscious ones could not be aroused.
"Little Jire," who was "under the power,"
tLcr was prodded with a pin, and he instantly
..� a sprang to his feet, realizing that there was
',.more comfort in being "sensible," especially
when there aro disturbers around. This new
departnre will be appreciated by the boys for
&time.

The potato blight has made ead
havoc in many parts of Caneda and
the United states last year, as very
many of our readers know to their
Dost, especially iu low-lying lands,
where the drainage is net good. The
germs of the disease,perhaps it is not
generally known, may be propagated
by leaving the tops and diseased pota-
o nwhen
t ee llying upon the greased
thrown there to decay. Itis, there:
f .re, unwise to plant a crop of pota-
toes next year on the same land as
last year. Dry ground should be ee:
looted, and if new, so'muoh the better.
It is thought, as has been well stated
by a writer in the "Country Gentle:
man, that the potato blight in Ireland
in 1845-7 was greatly aggravated by
planting ou the same ground year
after year of the dreadful visitation,
as in Englund and Seotland,where the
potato crop usually formed part of
the rotation, the disease was not
nearly so calamitous. If there is
truth in the theory regarding trans:
mission of the disease in this way,
and we fear there ic, then it is im-
portant that- potatoes next spring
should be planted in localities the
most favorable to their security from
the ravages of the blight.
Mr. Carke's Lectures.

Friday evening was "Among the

the very stormy weather was small
but the lecture was immense. On
Monday evening, "Hits and Misses"
was delivered to a fairly good audi-
epee, and those wit.) heard it would
