Travel by the Short Line.

Ir is pleasing to have the assistance of the Patriot tu the disadvantage under which Prince Edward Islarfl labors in respect to communication with the mainland, and especially as to travel by the Short Line Railway to and from the Upper Provinces. The Patriot does well to point out that ‘* by our present Intercolonial, we

connections with the would spend two days and two nights on the road, and reach Montreal in 47 hours, or 20 hours more than by the C. P. RB, were the Dominion Government to arrange for connection with the C. P. R. train at

Painsec.” This is a fact which should

at once attract the attention and receive the considerafion of our steamboat and railway men. The question is, have we the ability, with our present facilities, to make the necessary connection with the C. As pointed out

St. John at 4 o'clock, p.m., local time ; and to take that train the passenger from this Province must reach St. John about three hours sooner than he can under existing ar- rangements. He could easily do this if a good ferry boat were put upon the Capes route, or if we had the subway or tunnel. To do so by way of Summerside and Point du Chene, by means of the steamers at pre- sent in use, would be more difficult, but we think with the Patriot that it could be done by the aid of a special train from

Point du Chene to Painsec. Of course, passengers from Charlottetown would be put to the inconvenience of leaving at half-

past five or six o'clock in the morning. But they would hardly mind that if by doing so they could gain twenty hours in the trip to Montreal

believe, doing they can to meet the demands of the traflic with the steamers they have,—and we have no doubt that they find it difficult, at this juncture, to provide the additional fast steamer which is requir- ed. They would, we believe, be willing and ready to leave Summerside an hour or an howe and a half earlier than they do; for they would then have more time to In this case it would simply remain for the railway authorities in this Province to change their

Notes and Comments.

—Referring to a paragraph in The Pioneer, we are authorized by Hon. Mr. Sullivan to state that so far from opposing the request of Chief Justice Palmer for leave of absence, he sent a telegram to Ottawa, recomending that the Chief Justice be allowed leave of ab- sence, and that he in no may tried to deprive

His Lordship of a holiday.

—A correspondent calls attention to the tact that Tug Examiner's report of Mr. Carney’s address is throughout almost word for word with an article in the North Am- erican Review, from the pen of the Rev. Mr. Savage. It is due to Mr. Carney to say that he claims to have intimated that he quoted the North American Review. On the other hand, several persons who were present state emphatically that he said nothing about Mr. Savage or the Review, and declaimed it as if it were his own. Certainly, it would have been better for Mr. Carney’s reputation if he had openly read the quotation from the book instead of re- citing it from memory; or, if he had im- mediately after the publication of the re- port, called upon Tae EXamMINeR, and desired the ‘insertion of ,an intimation that the report was not that which it purported to be. viz: a bona fide statement of his own views and opinions.

Protection Wanted.

-Asaconstituent of the present City Council, I find it necessary to ask for their protection, and, wishing to make public the reasons, hope to find your im- partial columns open to my appeal.

I-am the proprietor of an oyster and hup- beer establishment, on (Queen Street, let us say, and, although I heard my house term- ed a rum shanty, | may say, with all due deference, to those who calumniate me, that I sell nothing but the best hop beer, which I import, at large cost, from a cele- brated firm in Halifax.

Now, although it should be a great time for my line of business just now, with Hen- derson bounced and all, still 1 am doing verv little. And why? Because there are dozens and dozens of little shanties all around me, selling hop beer too and killing my trade.

Now, I must ask for protection from the authorities, and they must not let these small fry kill a decent man who has been in business three years. No, Mr. Editor, iimey must be choked at once, and immed- iately, as fresh shanties are starting every day. Where is Passmore and the police ! Why, every httle window with two sticks of candy in it, has a drop of beer in behind somewhere, and it’s getting disgraceful. How can a decent establishment make a penny when such a state of affairs exists.

1 will, if not relieved shortly, from the vicissitudes of the trade in this country,

have to close up and migrate to somewhere where the Scott Act is not in force and

cempetition is not so keen. Yours gratefully,

PQ.

Personal.

Mr. C. C. Carlton, Souris, is registered at the Osborne.

The St. John Sun says: Former students of Mount Allison will regret to learn that Miss Mellish, teacher of English, has withdrawn from the staff for a years rest.

The betrothai of princess Miletza, second daughter of the Prince of Montenegro, to the Grand Duke Peter of Russia, son of the Grand Duke Nicholas, and cousin of the Czar, is announced.

Mr. George Webb, for several years past a clerk in the London House, leaves for Boston in the Carroll this evening, en route to New York where he intends residing fin future. We wish him every success in his new home.

The Hawaiian Princess who is now in New York, although only 14 years old, bears the weighty name of Victoria Kawekin Kainlai Lunalilo Kalaniuiuahilipalapa. She shows her good sense by registering at the hotels as simple **Miss Clighorn.”

Victoria has reigned so many years that we are accustomed to look upon her as an older woman than she really is. Seventy is not a great age; and itis not by any means im- probable that our Queen may live to the age of her grandfather. Mr. Gladstone is ten years older then Her Majesty, so is Tenny- son, sois Oliver Wendall Holmes, Cardinal Manning is eleven years and Cardinal New- man eighteen years older. Mr. Thurman, who was a candidate for the vice-presidency of the United States last fall, is six years older; and the two foremost statesmen of their day—Prince Bismarck and Sir John Macdonald —are each four years older. Lady Burdette Coutts, who was married the other day, is five years older. Pope Leo is nine years older. Jefferson Davies, who occasionally yet gives evidence of mental activity, is eleven years older, and de Lesseps, who weeps over the failure of his Panama canal, but still tries to make it a success, is four- teen years older than the Queen. The only living monarch who reigned longer than Queen Victoria is Dom Pedro, Emperor of Brazil, who ascended the throne in 1831 up- on his father’s abdiction. As he was then only six years old, he cannot be said to have really reigned. He was declared to have reached his majority in 1841, when he was fourteen years of age. The longest reign in modern history is that of Louis XIV. of France, who ascended the throne on the 14th May, 1643, when five years old, and who died on the Ist of September, 1715, having reigned seventy eight years, three months and four- teen days.—iamilton Spectator.
