Ia'RIDAY, Nov. 27, 1896. Tug settlement of the mnah talked of and vexed question, viz., the Manitoba Schools, appears to meat with very gen- eral approval in all parte of the Derain. ion. Of oouree there are 8 few discord- ant notes in the rejoioing, but this was expected. Some more than ordinary enthusiastio, or fauatiaal, Protestants in a seotioo of Manitoba, thought ebe'privib. eges granted the Separate eohoole were too generous and had a meeting objecting, winding up by burniug an effigy of Hon. Messrs, Laurier and Bitten. We believe the Premier has kept faith with the pub. lie and has added to hie laurels as a bear. er of peace, rather than fanning the flames of religioua bigotry and intoler- ance. On another page we give the pro. visions of the settlement, Tina Toronto Globe of Tuesday ridi- cules the train service on the W. G. & B„ ae it well may. Did we say service 1' We take that back, as any arrangement of trains that requires three days to take a passenger or a letter from Brussels to Toronto, 120 mile; and return cannot be designated as service unless a000mpau- fed or prefixed by the word inferior. We don't expect the G. T. R. to perform miracles bet we think this section of the country quite within its deserts when we ask that the regular arracgement of train such ae has been in vogue, be re. turned to. If the G. T. R. expects that their present time table will ever give satisfaction the sooner they give up that foolish notion the better as every day proves more ooncluaively the gross in- justice of such so called service. The cities are bound to lose trade by the un• fair and unsatisfactory state of affairs. Ir becomes the people of this Dominion t0. observe Thanksgiving Day with a heartiness and intensity not always evid- enced. Thanksgiving is a duty , lacuna. bent on Canadians at all seasons, for we have been particularly blessed and the smallest thing we can do is to record our thanks to the Giver of all Good. We should be thankful for National blessings ; in that we belong to a Christian Nation whose greatness is founded upon the Bible ; that instead of bloodshed and rapine we have had peace within our bor- ders ; that instead of famine and pestil- ence we have been favored with plenty and freedom from plague. Our temporal blessings have not been few nor measured with a reluctant hand lint in the loving kindness of our Heavenly Father we have had our returning wants more than sup• plied. Duriug the past year numerous questions of a most important character have coma up for adjudication and, from our standpoint, have been decided in the best interests of this land. The cense of education, philanthropy and religion has advanced and the bow in the clouds in- dicatee greater progress in the time to come. In not a few instances Thanks• giving clay is observed in a manner that does not refloot much credit on the par. tioipants but we think it most fitting that a retroepeot of the journey of life should be taken ; an introspect to enquire our personal obligations ; and then, in be. coming spirit, to live in anticipation of more worthily receiving the many favors promised. The Good Book voices the experience of many when it says :-"It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, &e." or as Addison hymned it :- When all Thy mercies. 0 I my God, My rising soul surveys, Transported with the view, I'm lost In wouder, love and praise. Through every period of my life, Thy goodness I'll pursue ; And after death, in distant worlds, The pleasing theme renew. 1131leceen Ian. Will, Leckie, of Wroxeter, called on Jos, Pugh on Sunday.
