siigular articulate sentence, and that was
in recognition of Mr

to get up, but the nature of the diseas
prevented hii trom speaking, Senator
Sumner made every possible exertion to
understand the utterance of the dying
man, and te gethis last messages for the
British Legation at Washington, and for
his family ; butin vain, “Phe yoice refused
to discharge its wonted office, and nothing
could be gleaned of the last thoughts that
crowded upon his mind, He was only
able to give monosyllable answers Lo ques-
tions in regard to his condition, and to ut-

when he recognized Mr, Sumner. Infor-
mation of his death wasat once telegraphed
to the British Legation at Washington,

Sap Acctpext at YarMovrit, N.S.. on
Decraration Dar.—After the Sheriff had
declared the several Candidates eleetod, a
serious accident occurred, casting a gloom
over the whole town, It appears that al-
ter the Declaration scyerai young men
went to fire a royal salute. “Two of the
young men named Frank Killam, and
Manus Kane while rayiming home the
cartridge for the third round were serious-
ly injured by the explosion of the gun,

tween the elbow and wrist, his face is very
much burnt, he now lies in a very danger-

should inflamation or Mortification not set
iu, Kane died on Monday morning from
tho injures received. Mis right hand was
blown entircly off the arm, also had to *be
amputated.—Mis left arm was broken in
tree places, twice above the elbow, and
both bones in the fore arm, the thumb and
one finger blown entirely off The cause
of the accident will never be Known,
The vent of the gun was properly served,
Tt is supposed that there must haye been
fire remaining when tho cartiidge was
rammed, A subscription list was started
immediately after the accident lor the re-
lief of the Kane family and by 38 o'clock,

TUL INTER-COLONIAL RAILWAY.

ub question now occupying the)
our New Brunswick triends is}
route of the Tntercolouial Railway,

leed, 50 important is the subject eon-

siderea fo be that in several counties the

eandidates forthe Dominion Parliament |
will, we are informed, have to pledge

themselves beforehand to advogite such

nurticular line of railway as is supposed to

‘ interests of the particular

locality in which their constituents reside,

As our readers are aware, there are thr
proposed routes, and they ar OW as
the Northern, Central, and Western.

The Central seems, however, to be no
longer adyoc yany important class
or number of persons, and the struggle,
therefore, rests between those who. are
advocating the Northdrn and the Western
routes, ‘The Hon, Mr. Mitchell, the
Minister of Fisheries and Minerals, has
recently spoken at several influential
Inectibgs on the subject of the proposed
j routes, and we gather {rom his remarks
that the Northern one in his opinion and
in every respect the best route to be adopt-
jed. lis iden seems to be that the line
| should start from Riviere du Loup and

follow Major Robinson's route to the cros-

sing place on the Miramichi River, then

following a straight course jn a south-

{easterly direction, intersect the St. John

| and Shediac Railway about forty miles from

the former city ab or near Apohaqui,

‘There ean be no question that, looked at
froma military pointofview, the Northern |
route, being the farthest removal from the
boudry line separating the provinces trom

the United States, is the best, but there is
a question Whether it is the prefarable
route as compared with the Western when

their several advantages, commercially
regarded, ave taken into Consideration,

Iu the present position of a tis, per-
haps, Uinecessiry to express any positive
opinion as to the most desirable route, but
the tollowing particulars ¢ 1 from
the most recent authentic sourees, will,
doubtless, be read with interest ;—

\
Shore is a distince of 636 miles, and by
the Western route 672. The number ot
miles Lo be built in the proyinee of Que-
bee by the Northern route would be 167,
in New Brunswick 238, and in Nova 8:0-
tia 80, ‘The number of miles to be con-
structed id Quebee by the Western route
would be 60 iniles, in New Brunswick 280,
andin Nova Scotia 80. The chief argu
ment ih favor of the Northern route is
mleged military advantages, and
is pretty well understood that these
taken into consideration by the Britis
Goyerument when giving guarantee for
the interest on the money required to build
the line, itis highly probable thatthe road
will go by the north shore of New Bruns-
wick,

There are many, however, who stren-
uously advocate the adoption of the
Western rout, and propose that the home
authorities be rehuested to consent thut
the guarantee shall be transferred to this
rout, Lhose in favour of the Western
line produce some convincing statisties
in support of their yiews. ‘Thoy cite the
fact that the north shore line is distant
from the more populous settlement of
New Brunswick and {fom her principal
cities, John and Fredrricton, and will
pass through a thinly scttled country to
the viver St. Lawrence. It is further
urged by the advocates of the Western
line that by this rout St. John. city, the
commercial centie of New Brunswick,
would be one hundred and ty-four
miles, and Fredericton, the capital of the
provinces, two hundred and eighty miles
hearer Ottawa then by the Northern rout,

It is moreover, maintained that the large
section of Nova Scotia embracing the

couatios of Yarmouth, Digby, Annapolis,

Perhaps itis little kiown even in our County
Town of Summerside, that the Pemperance
Keform, in connection with the above Order,
is making so rapid a progress over the West-

why ouroperations are so little known abroad,
we mily say, there is a marked disinclination
in many of our most efficient members to

their time would be more profitably employed

Ture brickmakers of Manchester have
earncd tor themselves very nearly as bad
a reputation a» the sawgrinders of Shef-
icld, ‘Phe evidence given before the
Trades Union Commission in Manchester
painfully impresses us with the low in-
tellectual and moral status of the Buglish
working man. ‘This evidence shows us
hat associations of working men_ hire
jrufians, apparently without seruple, to
idestroy th@ property of their masters, and

workmen and others who, for some cause

to them, ‘The Manchester brick-makers
have, i¢ seems, cayricd matters with a
h hand. Lf a master infringed any
rule of the Union he was fined instanter,
and if he hesitated paying the fine it
was inercased, Ie dare not employ any
but Union men. It he presumed to do
so half a dozen scoundrels would pay his

sumable about it, and destroy every brick
cither manufactured or in process of
manufacture about the premises. If a
half starved workman dare work for a
master whose name was on the black
books of the Union he might depend on
being waylaid and beaten within an inch
of his life. If he offended more pricy-
ously he would be what in language of |
the Unionists is called * bottled.” That}
is in the dead of the night when he and
his wife and children were sdundly sleep-
ing, some two or three unfecling brutes
in the pay of the Union*of course, would
throw in at the windows of his house,
bottles filled with naptha, gun powder,
horse nail stumps, slugs, and other such
things. Another crucl outrage was to
hamstring the horses of an obstinate
master.

If Master A quarrelled with his work-
men, and wanted bricks for any purpose,
the Masters B, C, and D, in his neigh-
borhood, were not permitted by their
work-people to sell him a single brick.

will not be wholly thrown away. Some
of the. English journalists say that if
adventurous British subjects will, here-
after, venture among savage and half
savage’ peoples, they should ‘be clearly
given to understand thit they do so at
their own risk, and that their Government
will not send a man or spond a penny to
get them out of any scrape, however
serious it may be, into which ‘their fook
hardiness may haye brought them.

The report of the Ritual Commission
has been published. We liave not seen
the document itself, but we have read
several articles upon ity It gives very
little encouragement to the Ritudlists and
recommenis clergymen to adhere to the
ancient and established usages. This is
sensible advice, which we would like
to see taken by the clergymen. The
number of vestments sought to be intro-
duced by the ritualists on the plea that
they were not prohibited by an old act
of Parliament is astonishing. The very
names of many of them are new to most
readers. Wery few of us, whether Epis-
eopalians or not, have ever heard of albs,
| copes, chasubles, dalmuties, tunicles, and
bivettas. Yet itis about such things as
these, together with ornaments and prac-
tiees equally unfamiliar to the ordinary
churchman, that a large party in the
Church of Wzgtind are contending as if
the salvation of uien’s souls depended
upon their beingagaiu brought into use.
This milinery and uphelstery business is
doing a great déal of harm to the Church
of Eugland, It gives its enemies oeca-
sion to triamph, and what is worse, gives
serious offence to many worthy pious
persons within its pale. It is our opin-
ion that any clergyman who has a proper
sense of the importance of his function
would not waste his time and expend his
energies about matters which,considercd
in themselves,ere hardly worthy a second
hought. We are convinced that the
ritual party are more noisy than influen-
tial, and that in a few years very few
will know that it ever existed. ‘lhe
Commission met nineteen times,

The Peace Congress met this year at
Geneva, Garibaldi, of all men in the
world, was there, Ife made some
speeches in public places that savoured
far more of the soldier than of tho quaker.
There are many who say that a good
sharp war is the best means of securing
peace, this perhaps is Garibaldi’s idea,
who, when he attends a Peace Congress
exhorts his hearers to take Rome and de-
throne the Pope. ‘The only means of
effecting this is by an insurrection and
invasion, People don’t take cities and
dethrone sovereigns, while they at the
same time keep the peace. We are
afraid that the endeavors of the peace
makers in the nineteenth century will
hardly be crowned with the success they
deserve. Never were the nations of Mu-
rope better prepared for war than they
are at present. ‘The whole continent is
bristling with bayonets. Productive in-
dustry is taxed to the utmost to keep up
these gigantic military establishments.
The flower of the manhood of Europe is
annually drafted into its armies, there to
spend the best years of lifé in enforced
idleness. ‘The peace establishment of
Europe consists of above 3,000,000 of
men, this in time of war is increased to
the enormous number of 5,000,000, ‘The

It is to be hoped that some system of
general education will be established for
the working classes in Great Britain.
The revelations made before the ‘Trades’
| Union Commission should convinee men

people of Ingland sadly need instruction,
both seerlar and religious. * Many in
America think that the exercise of poli-
tical privileges or rights is one of the
best means of instructing and elevating
the masses, It isto be hoped that the
extension of the franchise to the Bnglish
ng Classes will be the means of
raising them out of the slough of brutality
and ignorance into which too many of
them seem hoptlessly sunk.

It is astonishing how little is known
