By the Patriot and a very few Grits, this may be considered sharp whiting calculated to lower Mr. Ferguson m the reapect of the people. But the mass of the people—Grit as well as Tory—will be disgusted by it. Mr. Ferguson cannot be

injured by such means. It is quite true that Mr. Ferguson did

not go to Bangor in his representative

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR,

Another Letter from Mr. Ferguson.

When a farmer sends an animal to an exhibition, or sells it to a customer at a distance, he should be able to ship it by boat or rail (with a care-taker, if necessary) and have it carried to its destimation with- out any further trouble on: his part, and

SIR,

per charges. Every wnnecessary difficulty o delay in the transportation of live stock is not only ernel to the animals, but by de- terring further _ business, presents a barrier te that improvement in stock = raising = which every true friend of our country is desirous of see- ing accomplished. Hence it is the duty of representative men, and particularly the press, to see that this service is performed with the utmost possible efficiency, and that every engagement entered into with the shippers of live stock is cheerfully and promptly carried out. Few farmers or their hired hands are much accustomed to travelling, and they have a poor chance im contending with careless and captious rail- way officials. Managers of railways and steamers know very well what they are do- ing in giving exceptional rates to stock go- ing to exhibitors. They receive rounded returns in the stream of passengers which is mainly attracted by a desire to see the Every failure on the part of the carrier or his employes to carry out cheer- fully and promptly the conditions offer- ed before hand, should be expos- ed, as to prevent its repetition, A great many thousands of animals raised on the farms of Prince Edward Island are sent every season over the Intercolonial Railway, from Point du Chene to St. John. The condition in which these animals arrive at their destination has much to do with the profit realized and consequently with

su

the prices our farmers receive. Every farmer on this Island is interested in demanding that this section of the Inter-

colonial Railway should afford every possi- ble facility for the cheap and humane car- riage of live stock. In the interest of a most important and growing trade we have a right to contend that some such facilities as were secured many years ago to the far- mers of Great Britain, mainly through the exertions of the late Mr. McCombie, of Tillyfours, shall be given by the railway on which so large a proportion of our live stock passes to market. In writing as I did on Thursday last,in regard to the unfair treatment of Island exhibitors returning from Bangor, I was not ventilating a private grievance, but exposing a public wrong, in the interest of the farmers of my native Province.

Those who are acquainted with the pub- iic eareer of the Hon. David Laird will net express much surprise at the fact that he jumps forward to defend broken promises and ‘** jack in office” tmanners on the: part of public servants. Nor is his readiness to

take the: part of anybody or everybody against the interest of the Island when he |; as a party purpose to serve, jany new featare in Mr. Laird’s tactics. ihat he sould deliberately misstate the facts by asserting that my complaint is that

| was not dead-headed on the Intercolonial- and my sheep carried differently from those of other people, is also just what might be expected of him.

All the stock sent to Bangor were not owned by Liberal Conservatives. I hope my friends of the Opposition who accom- panied us to Bangor will be able to see the true inwardness of David Laird from the article of yesterday.

I am, yours, &c., D. FEreuson.

At Montreal on the afternoon of the 8th, a fatal accident occurred in the Canadacigar box factory. Engineer A. found dead, lying on top of a flywheel which was going at the time. The matter is enveloped in mystery. | He was spoken to ten minutes before the body was found.

Fifteen years ago John Cary, of Eliza- beth, N. J., signed a promise that he wouldn’t touch a drop of liquor until 1886. Last Saturday his pledge expired, and in company with several friends he entered a saloon and drank freely of several liquors. The next morning he was found in his bed dead.

A Brooklyn lady at Greenwood lake put her baby on a bed to sleep, and, fearing that it might roll off, placed an open trunk half full of clothing by the bedside so that the child might fall into it if it fell from the bed. The child did fall from the bed, and did fall into the trunk, but when the mother found it 1t was dead. It had tangled its head in the clothing and

John M. Jenkins was thrown from a

coach in St. John, N. B., on Thursday afternoon and severely injured. One of the wheels passed over his. body. One of

his hands was badly cut and his head was fearfully bruised. He was improving at latest accounts.

A four-year-old lad named Harry Quinn, hadone of his legs broken on Smythe Street, St. John, N. B., a day or two since. He Was crossing the street when he was knock- ed down by a horse and one of the wheels of a sloven passed over his leg, breaking it near the knee. He is progressing favor- ably.

The schooner Don Pedro, bound from Boston to St. John, N. B., in ballast, ran ashore near Mispec in a fog at noon on Wednesday and has become a total wreck. The crew were saved, as also was a portion of their clothing. The Don Pedro was owned in Albert County, N. B., and was uninsured. She was built in 1869 and was not a very valuable vessel.

Qn Sunday evening some Lunenburg, N.S., boys for a practieal joke filled a to- bacco pipe with gunpowder mixed with tobaeco, and gave it to a young man named Fenwick McGregor. The powder flew into his face and eyes and badly injured him. He will probably lose his eyesight.

On Tuesday, the 17th ult., George Sea- boyer, senr., of Lunenburg, N. 5., left home early in the morring to attend to some fishing nets at Lronbound, but finding the sea too rough he returned and landed at New Harbor, whence he intended to walk home. Secarcely had he left the boat when the three men who were with him saw him fall. They ran to his rescue but found that he had breathed his last. Deceased was*71 years of age and leaves a widow and five children.

Boston Markets.

Boston, Sept. 8.

Curese.—The market has taken a still stronger turn, owing to the higher rates paid in the country, and best New York iactory is now quoted at 10c. per lb. Sales have been principally at 95 to 9}#c. The advance has checked trade here, but hold- ers are very firm, and current prices are low compared with the» cost in primary markets.

E The improved tone noticed last week has been maintained, and fresh stock is selling at full prices. Eastern extras readily command 18c.; Eastern firsts find buyers at 164 to 17c.; Nova Scotia and P. E. Island are firm at 16 to 16$c., and some marks go 4c. higher. Canadian firsts, 16 to B64c.

Potaroges—The week opened with a dull tone in the potato market, and on Monday and Tuesday it was hard to sell best stock at over 55c, and 60c. was an extreme price.

GGs—

Fisu Trapr.—The market for mackerel continues unsettled, and _ it is difficult to give reliable quotations. The steamer

from Halifax and P. E. Island on Monday brought 3,000 brls, but few were sold yesterday. Held at $9 to $10 for No. 3, and $12 for No. 2. A few lots unculled sold at $11 per brl. No cargo sales for several days past. Last sales at $11.75 to $13 per brl, sea packed. Inspected Bays are quoted at $9 to $10 for No. 3; $12 to $12.50 for No 2; and’ $20 to $25 fer No 1. The catch to date is 200,000 brls less than last year at this time, and the outlock is still.unfavorable. The jobbing trade has improved, and stocks in dealers hands are quite small, but there is less disposition to respond to extreme prices.

Codfish are withont material change. The supply is liberal, and prices are easy.

Pickle cured Bank are slow at $2.25, and dry Bank at $2 50 to $2.75 per qtl. Had-

dock command $1 50 to $1 75, and Pollock rule at $1 50 to $1745 for dry, and $2 50 for slack salted. —_— TT + em © Eire ne The End of the Werld.

In a negro hamlet in Liberal county, Ga., Jast Monday, a negress apparently died and her friends were sitting up with the corpse. While the wake was at its height the woman burst the glass in the coftin lid and assumed a sitting posture. A stampede followed. She extracted herself from the coftin and told her friends that the end of the world was scheduled for Sept. 29 and that she would die at dawn. Her death ensued as predicted, and on Tuesday night came the earthquake. The negroes of the entire neighborhood now look upon the dead woman as a prophet and have spent the entire time since Tuesday in their weird religious devotions in preparation for the expected day of judgment. Farm work is suffering severely as a consequence. Fully five hundred negroes have now col- {jected at the scene of the services.

Should the above prediction be correct, ‘those who have notes falling due on the 50th Sept., need not worry about them. | ra noe Girne canines
