‘Mr. Brecken confirmed the report, but said that in conversation with him. Mr. Celeman had offered to change the recular evening train for Georgetown into a special to bring back the mails on the arrival of the Northern Light. If this offer be accepted, it will meet the difficulty with respect to the incoming mail, while the outgoing mail will have to lsave here by the 2.30 afternoon train, aod .be taken next day by the Northern

Light. Half a loat is better than no

bread; and it is hoped that the Depart- ment wiil accept this offer. But iltoget! the business of taking off the special 1 und-trip train for the few days

er weeks remaining in which the Nor- thern Light will be enabled to run regu

larly, is a contemptibly mean one for a

Department of the Domipion Govern- ment to engage io. Avother thing that is likely to cause

McElhinney may be a better organizer than Mr. Irving or Mr. Muttart; but it will be impossible to convince the travellivg public that their lives will be as safe under the eare of the former as under that of the latter. Itis not likely that Capt. McElhinney will long remain in charge of the iceboat service; but considering the long aud faithful service of Messrs. avd Muttart, and the very great conducted

hour. He might have been sent to advise with them as to the organiz- ation of the service on the new and im- proved basis proposed, but he—an un- tried man—should certainly not have been placed in charge of the crossing when gentlemen who have won the encomiums of Archbishops and Bishops, members of Parliament and men of all sorts and conditions for their good judg- ment, pluck and ability, were available. We need add nothing as to the folly of placing political favorites and relations of ministers in charge of a service such
