is astonishing what a little figuring will
do.
The sum accorded the Province as a
settlement from the Dominion for un-
paid claims is $2,8.18,289. This is struck
from the list by Col. Matheson because
we oanuot draw the amount, only the
interest on it at five per cent. forever.
There is no financier who would not
rather have five per cent. on this amount
forever than the amount to -morrow or
at any time. It makes our surplus
$4,131,809. This is only the beginning,
of au optimistic calculation. Our sub-
sidy according to population is $1,116,-

the current rate of interest will range
lower. It is on the side of modesty to
capitalize this revenue at four per cent.
in estimating its immediate value as an
asset. This would give us the comfort-
able sum of $27,922,800. It looms large
when first coming into view, but is only
a trifle for a Province like ours. It bring s
the surplus up to $32,053,609.

NOTES AND COMMENTS.
CHURCH NOTES.
Rev. Dr. Gifford, a former pastor of
Wingham Methodist Church, who has
been ill for nearly two months, was able
to occupy his pulpit at St. Thomas, on
Sunday, April 16th.
The congregation of St. Andrew's
Presbyterian churoli was left in dark -
nese for a short time on Sunday evening
last. The fuse in connection with the
electric light had burned out. A num-
ber of coal oil lamps were secured and
the service was continued.
Sermons appropriate to the Easter
time were delivered in the Methodist
Church on Sunday, by the pastor, Rev.
Dr. Gaudy. The choir very efficiently
rendered suitable music, and Miss
Homuth and Mr. F. Hill contributed
solos with much acceptance.
The Executive Committee of the
Huron County S. S. Association and
C. E. Union held a meeting at Clinton
on Good Friday to arrange the program
for the Convention to be .held in Goder-
ich on June 13th. Mr, Abner Omens

The sect known as the Jaius, in India,

feats. Once a year these people abstain
from food for seventy-two days, while
fasts of fr$m thirty to forty days are
common.
