' LIBERAL CONYTNTION POST- PONED. . The East Huron Liberal Convention announced to be held in the Town Hall, Brussels, on Saturday of tine week has been postponed until Good Friday, April • 3rd, owing to the inability of Dr. MODon- aid and other speakers to leave Ottawa on the first date. Addresses are expeoted from the well known D. C. Fraser, M. P,, bf Nova Scotia ; A. Campbell, M. P., of Sent Co. ; Jas. McMullen, M. P., Wel lingtou, and the members of the Riding, Dr. McDonald and T. Gibson. There will likely be an evening meeting as well as one iu the afternoon. There should be a large attendance. IT is stated that the Local Legislature will likely conclude its work for this session on Thursday of next week. They have had a busy time. Panmir t GRANT, in the Globe, says to settle the Manitoba school question re• gard must he paid :-1. To form and spirit of the constitution, remembering that the di3ioulty springs from a pecul- iar of our oonatitotion, which is both federal and parliamentary. 2 To pro- vinoial self.respect, which cannot be wounded in the least province without the greatest being also wounded sooner or later. 3. To religious sentiment, for though the wate is dis root from religions organiz•tioUs, it cannot disobarge its own functions aright if it antagonizes the re'igious sentiment of even ill -instructed portions of the community. Now that the question has heoome complioated the ordinary methods of party government are too rough for its-olution. Delay, in order to ingaire, conference, and mutual conoeeion,attvs.Haste may impar involve the greatest perils. 'Ve are face to face with a question which is world wide to its i nitioanoe. If, through hay. ing men who value the country more than party, we settle itwisely, great shall be our credit and our gain. Tnl: government at Ottawa, after foto- ing the House to sit continuously for thirty-nine ho Ire, secured a division on the second reading of the Remedial Bill at six o'Olook on Friday morning last, As was expeot.•d the government was sustainer. On the Opposition leader's six months' hoist amendment there was a majority of 24, a little more than half the government's normal majority. Eighteen Conservatives, all from Ontario, except Dr. Wsldun, votsd against the government, while s••ven Liberals voted with the government. All the Manitoba and Northwest members, except one, Mr. Martin, who is a Liberal, voted with the government. As parliament will expire on the 24th of April, it is almost certain that those opposed to oommitting the outrage against Manitoba can be prevent- ed from pushing the bill through. Old Mr. Tupper says that he will force par. Moment to sit night and day, without in- terruption, rather than ba baulked in carrying the measure. It is rather re. markable, in analysing the position of the bowie on the second rending of the Remedial Bill, that the motion was (tar- ried by the outlaying provinces. The vote by provinces on the second reading was as follows : Ontario F86• Aga�fueE. Quebec - 38 20 Nava Scotia ..16 5 /few Brunswick 18 3 'Manitoba 4 1 Friona Edward Island 2 4 British Columbia 6 0 Northwest Territories 4 0 Tot LI 114 96 Fran the above it will be seen that Quebec gave a majority of four in favor of the bill, while Ontario went against the measure by a preponderance of eight, en. The other members of the Confederation oast 59 votes, of which 43 were for the bill, thus coming to the asaistanoe of, the government with a majority of 32. In blanitoba four mem- bers out of 'Ivo voted for the bill. In the getter :1 provincial elections held a few mouth+ ago the people of Manitoba tip. proved of Mr. Greenway's policy by an overwhelming majority, Throughout the went, from Lake Superior to the Paoifio, public sentiment is strongly in favor of a nondenominational system, yet fourteen members voted for the es. tablishment of a separate wheel system by the federal authority, and only one vote is recorded against the measure. Were the publie opinion of the West al- lowed to express itself the ohange so effected would alone have destroyed the majority by whish the second reading was carried. In the maritime provinces, the government was able, with the ex. oeption of Dr. Weldon, to rally their whole party strength, i1x a meetittll al the Domlajon Cabinet on Friday night it was decided to sofa. mission POI Diolfey, Minister of Jeetioe, and Mr. Aeejardins, Minister of Militia, to praoesd to Winnipeg to negotiate with tite Manitoba Government with a view to a settlement they were aoeompauied by Sir Douaid Smith, Though pretending that they want to negotiate a oompromiae the lifiulateis have resolved to push for. ward the ooeroion bill now before Parlia. meat.

S. Perhaps there is no more beautiful or picturesque spot in Nova Scotia than the valley of Gaspereaux, in the "Land of Evangeline." Winding its way through the centre of the valley is a beautiful little tiv er, while nestled at the foot of the mountains whish rise on either aide to the beigbbh of hundreds of feet, is the romantic looking little village of Gaepere. aux. About two and a half miles from the village resides Fred. J Fielding, one of the most thrifty farmers in this seotion of the oomltry. Your correspondent cal. led upon him and found a very genial, intelligent' and apparently healthy look. ing man. In reply to our question, Mr. Fielding said, "Yes, I was near to death's door at one time, but thank' God I am a new man to -day. You see, be went on, that pump in the kitohen, beneath is a well about 20 feet deep, which was the cause, I think of all my illness. I went down last fall (1804) in it to clean it out and was only a short time at the bottom when I took a severe pain at the bank of my head and a burning sensation in my throat and lungs, such as is caused by the inhalation of brimstone. A sorb of stupor was also gradually coming over me when by a hugs effort, I succeeded in regaining the kitchen once more. A lighted lamp let down became extinguish- ed, thus showing that the aooumulatioa of gas had caused the trouble. The pain in the back of my head dontinued to trouble me and ono day while working in a back field I suddenly lost the use of my left eye, right arm and left leg. At times I could not speak, but towards evening 1 began elo,vly to grow better. The next day at about the acme time I' was seized again in the same manner. I now called in our family physician who told mo that a blood vessel had burst in the bask of nay head, He left me midi cine. The pain in the back of my head never left ins and I continued to feel miserable. About two months after this second attack while eittiug in the post office of the village I was suddenly seized again and getting out my horses and wagon started for home. I had not gone far when the lines dropped out of my right band and I again found myself blind in my left eye and the right arm and left leg paralyzed. The horses now carried mo home but passed the house in the direction of the barn. My wife thinking I had gone on to the barn paid no attention for perhaps 15 minutes, when she sent out one of the children to see what was keeping me. At this time I was unable to speak and had to be as. sisted into the house. Before bed time I began to recover somewhat and felt fairly well the next morning, but was again seized during the clay in the acme man• ner and the report reached the village that I was dead. Neighbors came flock. ing out, expecting that it was true, As the medicine 1 bad tried seemed to do me no good, I now thought I would try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and by the time I had used six boxes the pain had left my Mrs, E. Rogers Begs. to announce to the Ladies of Brussels and surrounding country that her Mil- linery Opening will take place on Thursday &Saturday, Aprii2&4 4 When she hopes to have the pleasure of see- ing every lady in Brussels and else- where to visit her very nice stock comprising all the Newest and Most Fashion- able Styles For,the Corning Season.

I now ceased using them for about a month when I thought I felt a recurrence of the pain at the back of my head. I sent again and got three more boxes and used them. It is now about five months since I used the last pill, and I have never bad a recurrence of the attack, besides I fuel myself a new man, I am now 39 years of age, and have always worked on a farm, and never enjoyed work better than last summer and autumn and am positive that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cured me. I now always keep them in my house and when my wife or children have any sickness our resort is to this medicine and always with the very best effect. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are offered with a confidence that they are the only perfeob and unfailing blood builder and nerve restorer and when given n fair trial disease and suffering must vanish.
