of Mount Pilate, one of the mountains

travellers from the attempt. Her Majes-

ihas already earned the reputation of an \f

Alpine climber. ‘This, feat speaks well |
for the constitution and bodily energy of

Ruler of the noblest and most physically
powerful aristocracy of the world. We
venture to predict that, much as athleti
sports have been encouraged and practised
among the upper classes of Mngland, they
will be pursucd more than ever after Her
Majesty's late exploit. Anything that
will direct public attention to the matter
of bodily health and development, must,
in this age, when the outward frame seems
to be forgotten in view of mental pro-
gression, be looked upon as a blessing.
It the visit of Her Majesty to Switzerland
has resulted in nothing else, it will be
worthy of rememb:ance. We are, how-
ever, of the opinion that underneath the

surface aspect of this quict visit ty. the)

Continent, there Hes concealed from pub-
lic gaze a deeper object. It is well kuown

jstate of Murope at the present time de-
mands the good offices ofa wise, benign,
and powerful mediator, ‘Yo all the charm
attaching itself to the female character of
refinement und compassion, our Queen
has added that conveyed to the mind by
the words, * Blessed are the peace ma-
kers,””

A French paper, the Gaulvis, has been
charging Lord Stanley with meddling in
Continental polities.

We had intended devoting considerable
of our space this week to the subject of
our agricultural interests, but the arriyal

prevented, We cannot, however, re-
train from offering a few remarks. It is
| fact that after a spring of unparalleled
destitution, in which lurge quantities of
grain intended for seed were consumed by
man and beast, the Island has never pre-
sented a finer panorama of w aving corn
ficlds than it has done this year, Hay
has been a good crop, and vegetables have
thriven well. ‘The
Mowing Machine hus been largely called
in, and altogether we should say that
this year, Prince Hdward Island has made
good advance in ‘agricultural matters,
Now @ great part of all this cheering re-
sult comes, we apprehend, from the in-
creased attention our farmers are bestow-
ing upon the subject of manure. It is
the grand idea of farming, * Never run
in debt,” said an old Mnglish farmer to
his son,—-** Never run in debt if it’ be
possible to keep out of it, but if you ever
should, let it be for manure.”* Our far.
mers have acted upon the principle, and

of labor and timo in exploring the vast
