THE CHESTER SONG. Brigh!ly gleams the shades of evening On R. Chester’s new lump store; Signals, lamps and lanterns beaming, As their wont in days of yore. Burners, chimneys, glittering, dancing, Blinking on the new-made shelves, Tiny lamps an‘ glasses prancing Just like a band of litile elves. Now, if you’re somewhat at a loss To find out the new retreat; From the old stand the brid ye just cross To 248 -outh Water street. And down the st'irs you'll have to go, With steady step and -trong. And there you'll meet with such a show That'll make yuu sing a song. For Jam»sand lanterns red and green, Tinware of strongest grade-- In no store else such stock is seen. It’s just the place to trade. Blasts which blow from the Chester horn, When fogs are thick and near, Makes siilors look at fear with scorn *Cause they know just where to steer,, LIFE SAVING SERVICE. ' The Port Austin News says that yesterday the lite saving cretvs received orders to go into commission on Monday. ‘That of No, 2, at Point-anx-Barques light, it made up as follows: Samuel Neal, George Smith, George Losey, James Sheridan, Charles Parker, Charles Farton, William Ashworth, signal sergeant; Q. Morgan, captain. Five of the old crew and two new; one of the old could not pass doctor’s examination, and the other could not pass the marine examina- tion in the keeper’s judgment. The department:is supplying all the sta- tions in the tenth district with force pumps’ as a protection against fire, and the one re- ceived at Station No. 2is found to do its work admirably. Station No. 3, above Grindstone City, has all of last season’s crew back again, with Henry Gill, jr., as Captain. C..C. Goodwin, jr., last year a member of the Cleveland Life Saving crew, has gone to Erfe to serve at the station at that port. We have received. from Mr. 8. I. Kimball the General Superintendant of the Life Sav- ing Service a circular giving the designations of stations in the Life Saving Service which will take effect on June 1 1883. The present deaignation by numbers will be abandoned. Officers and employes of the Life Saving Ser- vice will, in all correspondence, and upon all official torms, observe the changes. APPOINTMENTS.

The Kingston Whig says: John Finuean, of Ganonoque, is in. the city for the purpose of fitting out the s eamers Rothesay and Prince Arthur for the St. Lawrence Steam- boat Company. There is little probability of the amalgamation talked of between this company and the royal mail line being ef- fected. The latter wants to get too much.
