Our representative had an interview yesterday, with Lieutenant Pettigrew, Chief of the Public Works Department, who returned from the States by the U. S. S. ““Kittery’’oa Saturday last, regard- ing certain derogatory statements affect- ing the former Danish administration, which printed by the Nordlyset, and re- produced in part by our cotem The Bulle- tin, were attriouted to him. We are glad however, to state that the remarks attributed to him are without foundation. Never more surprised than to find himself figuring in print, and in such wise, Licutenant Pettigrew upon learning the situation, immediately fook steps to counteract the evil impression made by th-publication, by calling upon, and speaking the matter over, with those concerned. —St. Thowas MailNotes, Dce. 11th. * : MISSIONARY FESTIVAL AT EM- MAUS, St. JOHN On Sunday, December 7, a Missicnary Festival was held at the Moravian Church at Emmaus, St. John.
