EDITOR,—AR I promised to write to quite a few I thought I would Bend you a few linea rind if you will spare me a small space in your paper it will do for them all. To begin I am goiug to give you an outline of whet I have seen in this part of the world so "Come, let us spend the lightsome days in the Birks of Aberfeldy." Lovers of Highland scenery when visiting the fairest portion of the Northern Kingdom, as Scott calls Perth- shire' should not fail to see the pretty little town of Aberfeldy. Those who have not visited this spot have yet to Bee some of Nature's fineet work. To reaoh it we weave the Highland train at Ballinling Junction and take the small branoh line which rune along the banks of the Tay. On the rising elopes, snugly nestling among the trees, may be seen the man- sion houses of the different proprietors of the Strath Tay.. An hour's run brings us to our destination. Aberfeldy is a clean, inviting, country town, with a population of about 1500. It is charm- ingly situated in the Highland of Perth- shire, 400 feet above tea level, and pos. sasses many attractions alike for those in pursuit of health or pleasure. It is an excellent centre for cycling too -fists ae good roads run from it in almost every conceivable direction, including such opposite pointe of interest ae Pitloohry, Dunkeld, Orieff, Killine, Glenlyon, Ran- neoh and Foss and forming numerous delightful circular tours. The soil ie generally of a porous, gravelly nature which along with the dryness of the atmosphere explaine what is a matter of common remark that 24 hours after the heaviest rainfall the roads are almost ae dry as if there had been none. The climate is very healthy and markedly beneficial in many forme of disease. In the neighborhood of the exteueive pine woods which clothe the hillsides, the sleep -giving, soothing fragrance of the resinous pine, cleanest, sweetest and most healing of all scents, fills the air yielding to it its purifying and curative virtues. It is a well known Fant that pine forests, especially in sunshine after rain, render the atmosphere more agree- able and fragrant, hence the benefit derived to lungs and throat. The slim• ate is further attested by the remarkable longevity of the district -80 years is quite a common age while 11 is not unusual to find men and women hale and hearty in their nineties. There died a few years ago at the village of Duntaylor (I knew him well at one time) a man by the name of Peter Fegan, at the extraordinary age of 107. The familiar figure of Peter with his pack was seen moving about till almost the last. There are several min- eral springs in the locality, chiefly chaly- beate ; one of considerable merit near Monees was formerly condnoted by a pipe to the rustic bridge at the entrance to the fall, but unfortunately, presumably through neglect, the water was allowed to change its course and be 'oat. Aber- feldy has ample letting accommodation from the handsome villa to the comfort- able room with attendance. There are first -clave shops of every description where all the luxuries se well ae the nebeseariee_of life are supplied. The fine new laundry, built on Home street, and fitted up with every modern appliance, meets a long felt want. The sanitary condition of the town is excellent. There are four churches, Established, U. P., Congregational and Roman Catholic ; and three bank agencies, Bank of Scot- land, Union and Commeroial Banks of Scotland. Of the five hotels three are licensed and two are temperance. The licensed ones are the "Breadalbane Arms," situated about the centre of the town, the "Station" hotel and "Palace" hotel, the former about three minutes and both the latter one minute walk from the railway station. The "Crown" tom. peranoe 10 in Bank street and Reid'e temperance in Dunkeld street opposite the post -office. At either visitors will find every comfort and a000mmodation, A few years ago a commodious Town Hall was built with library, reading and billiard rooms attached. Another recent addition to the amenities of the place is a splendid nine -holed golf course—ooneid- ered one of the fineet Mums in Scotland. It has to neat little pavilion in connection with the course, fitted up with every oonvenienoe for Summer and Winter. Opposite the golf course is the Blank Watch monument, in the form of a rugged oairn of stones surmounted by the figure of a stalwart Highlander in old regimental threes. At the base a second figure is represented ae recording on a stone slab the nunteroue engage. menta in which this distinguished regi. ment took pert. The monument is eroded on tbe field where the regiment was first embodied in 1740. A number of spate are placed on the small recrea- tion groaud adjoining. Quite near stands a memorial of another kind in the shape of a fine old atone bridge built by General Wade in 1784, but, perleape Aberfeldy's principal feature of Internet Is the Feats of Monees or Birlre of Aberfeldy, render- talent, Brueeele apd Brantford were pial, ed famous in song by Burne; The falls, ed ae the winners, but neither won ma, three in number, consist of aeeriee of and the final gave was between Galt and oaeoadee formed by the Maness burn Listowel, the former winning by 10 800re which tumbles through a deep and beau- 01 2-Q, Some epiendid football took Wally wooded ravine.

The induction of 1lev, B, M.

MoKay will preach, Rev. F. A. MoLenuan will address tbe minister, and Rev. J. Mal- colm will addrees the congregation. St, Jobn'e and St, George's ohurobee, at Brussels and Walton respeotively,have asked the Bishop of Huron to appoint I. Webb as rector, anooessor to Rev, G. J. Abey, The appointment is likely to be made. Mr. Webb is highly recommended, meetly through with his College oourea and is unmarried. No doubt the com- fortable rectory here will not want a housewife very long if he ie placed here. Mr. Shore, of Wingham, took the eervioe last Sunday. Last Sabbath ,horning A. H. McLeod, whose home le at Clinton, was ou baud to supply Melville Church pulpit daring Rev, Jno. Roes' absence. He gave an interesting discourse from the text "Go ye out into the highways and hedges and compel them to come iu." Mr. McLeod bee another year to spend at College be- fore completing bio course. He is a good speaker, hoe had quite a wide experience for a young man and has a prosperous future awaiting him we believe. Rev, Dr. Moffatt, the veteran Tract Society agent, gave au elaborate address in the evening on the work in whiob he takes so lively an intoreet. The venerable Dr. retains his activity and vim to a marked degree and has done much to awaken considerable enthusiasm in thie potion - lar kiad of labor. Rev. T. Weeley Comma preaobed the flret sermons of his pastorate in Brussels Methodiet ohuroh last Sabbath to large aongregatione, notwithstanding the extreme heat. His morning theme , was "The bidding plaoe of God's power"'itnd was a very suitable eobjeot for ilia occasion, In it be urged the reeking of Divine aid by all, looking toward a new year's work, The evening text was Dent. 11 29, from which a etimulatiug, interesting practical and well directed dieoonree was given. Rev. Mr. Cosene has been beard before in Brnaeele and is not a etranger. His last Sabbath's eer- moue were well received. He ie a ready speaker with clear voice, free from notes evangelistic in his preeeutation of Truth and preseee practical lessons home. Ito the Epworth League service he spoke a few introductory worde. CORDIAL WELooane.—Iuatead of the natal weekly prayer meeting in the Methodiet church a welcoming service or gathering was held on Wednesday evening of this week.

Mr. Coeena expressed their thanke and their willing. cess to aid in every good word and work. W. H. Kerr 000npied the chair. After Searing "Bleat be the tie that binds" and Rev. R. Paul had pronounced the Bene- diction a little while was pleasantly spent in introduotione. SUNDAY Soaoon WonzEus: The tenth International Sueday School oonvention meeting at Denver, Col., ohoeo W. N. Hartshorn, of Boston, chairman of the Executive Committee, and the EBB. active Committee re•elooted Marion Lawrence, of Toledo, general Secretary of the Committee. The Exeoutivo Oom- mi•ttes also appointed a committee to find a suitable person to act art field work- er among the colored people u! the South. The following cablegram was received : "London, June 28,—Chairman Interna• tiousl Sunday Bobool Convention, Dan. ver.—Many thanks for your telegram, which will be laid before the King. Queen thanks you for your kind sympa thy. His Majesty progressing most satisfactorily." Rev.

A Lively Program of Foot Ball at Berlin, Ae per annoanoement lest weekthe question of Foot Ball ohampionehip in the Intermediate series in oonneotion with the Weetern Foot Ball Aneoaiatioh was settled at Berlin last Monday. There was a large torn oat from, Braesele, 123 tiokete being purchased here for Water. loo Coe. capital, and our team was well supported. Although they did not win we are still of tbe opinion that on their own Park they oan trim any team that oomes along but somehow on "fnrrin' ' fields they don't alwoya win. Listowel and Brueeele were in the that round Monday afternoon and the former won by. 8 to 1, all the goals being scored in the first half. The wind was high and the ball often in the air thereby detract. ing from the clever combination work nenally put up. .Galt defeated Brantford by 2 to 0 and utter supper the two win. Here took a whirl at it. Galt Dame out beat by 2 to 0. None of the game were walk.overe but the tournament failed bo attraotmany Berliners. The day went by very pleasantly and the Brueeolitee were brought home by special train about mid night. We subjoin the opinion of other news- papers eo that, as Robbie Burns said, We may "see onreel's ae ithers see ne.' The Berlin News -Record eaye :—The first game between Brueeele and Lista. wet was ooneiderable ofa eurpriee. Broe• eels had been pinked—on form—by the railbirde to show first ander the wire and some of their sanguine beakers called them to carry borne the cup. But there's many a slip, eto. ; and by the time Lista. wel was through with them, Brussels' reputation bad been brokbled. They are somewhat heavier than the black and yellow clad Lietowelitee, bot their work, both in cheoking and passing, was not eo effective. Their goalkeeper, Pearson, was off form, letting two past him that appeared just ordinary pante. Tbe Braesele contingent did not take their defeat in the boat of spirits, criticizing their playere strongly. Bat they worked hard and fair, and deserved continued encouragement. Brnaeele ie great on eporte ; its population of 1400 supporta a good football olab. The Northern ball is hardly so speedy ae that played in Galt and Brantford and the game rather lagged at Intervale. Brueeele' left wing— Roaoh and McRae—negotiated several pretty bite of work, op to the Listowel goal, but could not tally, and Capt. Gerry of the Brunie defence generally euooeed. ed in clearing. "The Hornets," ae the boys dabbed the Listowel Club drew first blood, Barclay forcing it through on a close pave from Bamford on the right, No cheers from the Brueeele' contingent. On the face off Brueeele gingered up and tdok the aggressive. They had two shots but neither tallied. Then Schweitzer, (Listowel), made a pretty, though in- effective, lone rash. The ball was kinked out to Iidd, half bock ; he dropped it into goal, and bit tbe top of the bar, the ball falling in front of the gap. Pearson scooped it out, bat gave it simply a ping pang tap to Bamford, who rammed through number two good and feat.— Score 2.0. Brussels bad two chances to eaore but couldn't turn the trick. The Listowel left and centre forwards, on a three•oornered "Qom," tallied the third, one minute before bolt -time. Bat in that time Brueeele managed to close the gap by a goal. Sartre -3 1, And eo it remained to the end of the chapter, Neither sidewas as strong in the second as in tbe first half, their being more long and aimless kinking—Listowel driv. ing it over the tondo when they got a ohaooe. Iu the second, Tripp, Boueaele, bunted a law ball, or rather tried to. A Listowel man looked at the ball and hie Tripp on the bead. He retaliated by kinking the other fellow's pante and wan ruled off by Referee Sime. When Tripp got book he apologized to his opponent and ehook hands. The game over, the Listowel boys went up town to neat for the final Straggle. Galt Reformer in an article headed "Galt ie Cook of the Walk," makes the following reference :—Listowel and Brue. eels opened the ball. They were husky boys, and played with considerable vigor. It wail Brussels' Civic Holiday, and a bnnoh of enpportere were in et the death. The features were reboot, bat the fine points were few. Hard running and equally etrennoae kiokimg oharaoterized the contest, but there was little unity, and, as a result, very little scientific etrength. The rivals were alike in method but Lietowel had alightly the better of the argument in effect, scoring three goofs to Breese's' one. It was a heart- break for Brunel!), but the loeere took the drubbing manfully, without a mur• mar, Sims, of Berlin, rete: earl, and eat- iefaotorily. The Brantford Expositor did net give numb eaooe and hits it off as under :— The semi -finale and finale for the inter- mediate ohampionehip of the W. F. A. were played off Monday at Berlin.
