FIRIDAY, JULY 2, 1897.
TnraeDtx was the thirtieth anniversary
of the Coufederation of the Provinces and
the formation of the Dominion of Can-
ada. The years hare brought a good
many changes, but we believe they have
been largely for the best. Confederation
may net have been a panacea for all the
ills of life, but it has given an impetus to
business, and we believe has been an im-
portant factor in improvements and in•
crease in trade. We may also assert that
in outer respects we would have been far
behind our present position and our peo-
ple would have grown up with narrow
views accustomed to isolation, and with
their horizon bounded by the narrow
limits of the province. Now 0 Canadian
knows that he belongs to a country whish
rests on both great weever, He knows
Bat he can traverse the continent from
Halifax to Victoria without touching any
other soil but that of Canada ; that he
can remove from here to a point 3,000
miles distant and still remain a Comedian
and under the same flag which floats over
bim here. All these things lead to a
higher National life and to nobler aspir-
ations than it is possible to feel among a
people who are small and insignificant
and without hope of auy increase of
growth. Confederation we regard now
as firmly established as the union of the
United States. It can never be broken
np unless the people of Canada in some
moment of madness conclude to change
their allegiance and join that Nation
which has been the life•loug enemy of
Great Britain. But such a oontiugenoy
is too remote and too improbable to be
taken seriously into consideration. We
firmly believe the present Confederation
is but the prelude to a much greater one
which will embrace the whole British
Empire, and that fifty years hence, when
Imperial Federation is accomplished and
when the people are celebrating its anni-
versary, its enemies will be as thoroughly
silenced and as contemptible as the
enemies of the Canadian Confederation
to-dev.

united iu marriage to Wm. W. Sloan, son

Mitchell, of Toronto, while little Gracie
Hess, niece of the groom, was a pretty

bine silk and carried yellow roses ; while

muslin with boquet of pink roses. The
ceremony was witnessed by a very large
number of invited guests. The wedding
party passed ant of the uhuroh to the

Among the many elegant and costly
presents was a beaetiful silver tea service
