LEPTERS TO THE EDITOR.

Our City Schools.

Sir,—It appears that our City Trustees, or a portion thereof, have been creating a new official for the City Schools. The non- success claimed to exist in the Charlotte- town Schouls is, in the estimation of our School Board, owing to the manner in which they have been supervised and graded in the past. Hence the appointment of an officer in the place of the old and efficient Secretary, whose additional duties shall be to daily inspect the schuels and attend to the grading thereof.

I claim, Sir, that any such officer is un- called for, and I am assured that those upon the School Board who know anything prac- tically of the work of the teacher, are of the same opinion. If the City Schools are not doing the work they should, it is not for lack of educatioual officials. ‘* One man can lead a horse to water, but ten can- not make him drink,” is an old adage, and worthy the consideration of our School Let our present staff of teachers have a fair field, po favor, and 1 am _per- suaded the results will be such as to give satisfaction. I claim to know, practically, something of the teachers’ work, and 1 regard it as simply absurd that an officer should be appointed to be coutinual- ly invading the privacy of the class room, and thus arrest the altention and trespass upon the time of both teacher and pupils, fur no such officlal can enter the room with- out doing so. The success of a school will never be attributed to ‘* official” visits or visits of any kind, for all visits whether daily, weekly or otherwise, whether paid by outsiders or by ‘‘ officials’ simply mean cessation from study. Last spring my little boy undertook to plant a row of small shade trees. I noticed they were not thriving, and upon enquiry I found that, in his anxiety to ascertain whether they were growing or not, he was in the habit of taking them up and examining their roots. Such treatment, certainly, was not con- ducive to the growth of the trees, and if our teachers’ work in the school room is to be treated in like manner, by repeated ex- aminations, the result will certainly be much more baneful than beneficial.

But we are told that a grading officer is required for the public schools ! Have our teachers asked for such an officer, or has anyone practically acquainted with the duties of the position said that such an of- ficer is required ? No. It is evident to the most superficial observer that the per- son best suited to perform such work are those having the best knowledge of the children's attainments. No official or other

examiner can perform that duty as efticient- ly as the teacher himself, assisted by the principal of the school. Uuless the School Bvuard look upen their teaching staff as a lot of imbeciles, they would never go out- side that staff to ask assistance in grading the schools. 1am quite satisfied that when the trustees all meet no such an appoint- ment will be allowed to stand. PRACTICE.

Astronomy and Philosophy.

Srr,—- Replying to a letter in Friday’s issue of the Patriot, under the heading of ‘* Astronomy and False Philosophers,” we will pass over the first two paragraphs as not calling for any comment, and will glance at the succeeding ones in order.

Christian philosophy teaches there is but one infinite—the Supreme Being—and be- side Him there is no infinite. To what school of philosophy, then, does the Patriot's correspondent belong ?

If light extends over infinite space, and there can be more than one infinite, how then could light have a beginning, as you state? Again, space is not “ filled” with stars. On the contrary, they are not dis- tributed with uuiformity but are arranged in groups and clusters, and occupy a finite portion of space.

Stars that are self-luminous are not cooled to a solid state. They are incan- descent bodies like our sun, centres of sys- tems similar to the solar system.

The scientific thought of this age does not teach us with regard to cosmic evolu- tion that primary diffused matter was in a molten state. On the contrary, the heated condition was a secondary one, due to the aggregation of matter.

With reference to,the movements of the planets, we refer the writer to the works of Galileo, Kepler, Newton and Herschel. The laws of motion, as set forth by these men, show plainly there never has been and never will be any intervention in the operation of natural laws. As to the origin ot matter, it appears more rational to say it existed from all time, - han to say it was created out of nothing. creation is suggested, that moment it is asked what was the cause of the maker. The ovestion is only removed one step back. No cause can be given but that a further cause is a necessary product of thought. The nebular hypothesis fully and satisfactorily explains the evclution of the sun and planetary bodies in the great drama of cosmical organization.

With regard to the expansion of matter, anyone who will refer to Herbert Spencer’s ‘*First Principles” will find the laws of aggregation and segration, condensation and rotation fully elaborated and discussed. It does seem strange thatthe Souris philosopher has not made himself acquaint- ed with the known truths of science. If he had done so his letter need never have been written.

Information Wanted.

Sir,—In a recent issue of your paper there appeared a short article headed ‘A warning to P. E. Island lobster packers.” It appears that some lobsters sent to Eng- land by a company in Portland turned out bad, and that this Portland Company said they got themfrom P. E. Island. As one of the Island lobster packers, I feel thankful to you for calling attention to thie Portland matter, and I would further ask you to inform us where the charge appeared and by whom made, and if poe the name of the men who uttered it, If you favor us in this I will write to this company for the names of the parties who sold to them from this Island, and endeavor to clear up this matter for the credit of our country. If this should pass unchallenged many innocent men will suffer, as the world will take our silence for an admission of guilt,

Crapaud Notes.

The harvest is nearly all housed. Great complaints are being made on account of the shortage in the oat crop, it being only about half the former yield, but of a good quality. Potatoes are also a short crop, but are of extra good quality. Wheat isa good crop, prime quality. rley is a good crop, and well saved.

Our esteemed friend, James E. Newsom, is back again from Boston, and notwith- standing the McKinley Bill, proposes to buy largely of potatoes for the Boston market. Mr. Newsom is another of our successful Islanders abroad, being a ner in one of the most reliable firms in Bostun, Mass. The fact of Mr. Newsom being so well established in business speaks volumes for his business tact. It is a well-known fact that the Yankees will have nothing tc do with dunderheads. Mr. Newson has been buying eggs all summer, or his agents have for him. He has left some ten thousand dollars in Crapaud and vicinity this summer for eggs alone.

Very fine residences are being built this summer in Victoria by Capt. R. B. Hud- son and Joseph Rogers, Esq. Both of these houses when completed will be second to none between Charlottetown and Sum- merside.

- Sickness is keeping our medical men—J. T. Covey and H. W. Robertson—very busy. Nearly every family with children having a visit paid itby the measles, but so far, although some of the cases have been very severe, none have proved fatal.

Victoria Bridge has undergone a very thorough repair this summer. The con- tractor, Mr. Isaac Myers, deserves great praise for his work, which was under the supervision of John P. Nicholson, of the Public Works Department. 1t looks like a complete job, strong, and still neatly done.

Shipping, especially oats, may be said to be fully commenced. Two loads of new oats have already cleared from this port.

Times are very good and our business men are like the little busy bee. Don.

Another Successfal Islander. At a time when Marysville’s future was decidedly uncertain, and interest in real estate nearly at a standstill Holland & Co. took the field and with characteristic energy and perseverance undertook to re- vive public interest then at alow ebb. First in the field they have kept well to the front. They are rustlers from the word ‘**go” and persons entrusting the buying or selling of property to their hands are assured of prompt and business-like attention. In addition to choice inside property, which is their specialty and of which they offer numerous bargains, Holland & Co. control many tracts of tide, marsh, timber and mineral land. They are also proprietors of the beautiful Ba View and Park additions, lately p on the market, which offer exceptional advantages to home seekers at a moderate outlay. The firm consists of Stanley W. Holland and Stephen Saunders, both active, enterpris- ing, business men, firm believers in Marys- ville and foremost in all measures for her interests. —Marysville, Washington, Leader. [The Stephen Saunders referred to in the above extract is anative of Charlotte- town. He left the Island about four years ago. THe Examiner wishes him still further success. }

News Notes. At Messowah the deaths from cholera average 50 per day. Reports from Japan state that much destruction was caused by floods last month. Our late Governor-General, Lord Lans- downe, who is now Viceroy of India, is soon to make a tour of the native states, inspect- ing the local corps and informing himself by personal enquiry of the relations of those states in the Indian Empire. Lady Lansdowne, who has been spending the summer in England, returns to India in November, and will join her husband on this tour. A Vancouver sugar company has con- tracted for a cargo of raw “ from the Philippine Islands, and the chamber of commerce at Manilla has passed resolutions favoring direct trade with Canada. This is but one of many promises of a thriving trade on the Pacific ocean. If the Grit ‘policy had prevailed Canada would have had no Pacific coast, no railway to it, and uo steamship line on the waters that wash its shores.

D ticure—Is not a palliative, but a one Oi iret relieves, then controls, and finally entirely subdues the irritation and in-
