LETTERS TO THE EDITOR. The Railway Tariff.

Sir,—Your correspondent ‘ Railway” is not happy in his selection of a theme,— say the defence of the exhorbitaut and absurd freight charges on the Intercolonial

tailway. He falls into the error of at- tempting a defence of the management of the P. E. I. railway. A perusal of my let- ter will reveal the fact that I made no charge against the managers of the P. E. 1. railway, where I state that the freight on 100 kegs of nails from St. John toSummer- side is $13, and to Kensington $21, I state afact. It is news to me that this differ- ence is made by the P. E. I railway. I was under the impression that these rates, and in fact the whole tariff of the P. E. I. railway was framed where the winter mail arrangements are viz., at Ottawa. As to the long or short haul this is foreign to this contention, viz: that the Intercolonial rail- way and P. E. I Railway are public pro- perty, and sliould be run in the public in- terest. The mere accident of a merchant living eight miles inland on a whole dis- tance of 185, is not sufficient reason for his having to pay 60 per cent. more freight Following out your correspondent’s argu- ment, all that a community need do is to start an opposition line of communi- cation and, presto ! the Government rates are reduced at once. In making special rates for the Springhill miners, there was no plea set up that there was opposition; the public interest, it was averred,would be served by low rates on coal—an article of prime necessity. Now, cheap food is of necessity a condition in manufacturing suc- cessfully; but when a bushel of potatoes cost 16 cents in Charlottetown, it should not cost 134 cents to carry them to St. John. In regard to rates to Boston, I am not prepared to admit that 38 cents per bag is too low, as other lines carry at these rates and make money; but I do not main- tain that 40 cents a bag to St. John (a quar- ter of the distance) is too high by one half. If your correspondent will come out over his own name, I will give publicity to cases of wrong and robbery in connection with R. R. management that will surprise many. Personally, 1 am not a gainer by these strictures on the management of the public service; but where a grievance exists, the part of reasonable people is to seek im- provement, andI might tell your correspon- dent that I have had errors put right and wrongs corrected by a personal appeal to members of the present Government that had.been contemptuously refused by mem- bers. of the preseat civil service. Here is something for the consideration of ‘* Rail- way ”: A merchant informs me that he paid more as freight on a buggy from Summer- side to Tignish than it cost as freight to bring the same buggy from Gananoyne to Summerside, 1,000 miles. I can scarcely believe that the Superin- tendent of the P. E. I. Railway is the framer of such an absurd tariff, and I have reason to believe that he is tied down by a tariff which, emanating from Ottawa, is in many cases oppressive and unreascnable.

Yours Respectfully, H. F. Coomss. St. John, N. B., June 22, 1888.

A Mother's Love.

A mother was giving her boy a bath, and in rubbing him hit a sore finger. She said, ‘* Oh, that is too bad, I’m sorry,” but the little fellow said, *‘ You used to kiss me when you hurt me, but now you never do.” Sure enough. The mother was thoughtful for a while and she knew that since her last baby had come this one had been left to himself too much, and she tried to think how she might do more in the future for this almost a baby himself, and still not rob the little wee baby of ali. She did try, and although her life was a busy one, the children ali found sympathy with her.

Drowned in a Squall.

A very sad accident occurred last Tues- day afternoon, about 1,30 o'clock, off Fourchie Harbor, C. B., whereby a young man named Josiah Hooper, son of Josiah Hooper of the above place, met his death by drowning, under very painful circum- stances. He was coming into the harbor under sail in a lobster boat, with a load of lobsters, when a squall struck the boat, filling and sinking her immediately. John Macdonald, in company coming in in another lobster boat, looked around to see how Hooper was coming along, and seeing no signs of him returned at once and found some of the gear ofthe boat floating around. He came ashore and reported the sad news. The boat was found and recovered the same evening, but the body was not found till Thursday morning at 6 o'clock, owing to the quantity of kelp which had kept it under water. The deceased was 35 years of age and leaves a young wife and one child. Great gloom is cast over the place and much sympathy is felt for those left behind.

It ispow announced that the Dowager Empress Victoria will make a long visit in the autumn to her mother the Queen.

Max O’Rell, on getting back to England,

The last letter that Emperor Frederick ever wrote is. possessed by the rector of the university at Bologna, Italy. This letter was dated June 6th, and expressed the writer's regret at being unable to attend the celebration that recently took place at Bologna.

Paris is talking about erecting a mon-

ument to Jacques Daviel, the first oculist to practice excision of the cataract. He described his method ina paper which he read before the Academy of Surgery on the 16th of November, 1752. Two musical notabilivies have received knighthoods in England in the persons of Dr. Charles Halleand Dr. Stainer. The former made his debut in England in 1848 and has ever since been a promoter of musical interests, taking an active interest in the ,avorite Monday ** pops,” or popular concerts of London. Sir John Stainer is, or rather was—for failing eyesight com- pelled him recently to resign—the celebrat- ed organist of St. Paul’s cathedral. These honors bestowed upon musicians of high merit will be appreciated by all lovers’of the art.

When Lafayette was last in this coun- try, receiving ovations wherever he went he was entertained nowhere with more ar- dent devotion than in New Orleans. He was formally received in the old Spanish building situated on Place d’Armes (now Jackson Square), north of the cathedral. He was very affable, and particularly agreeable to young men. Illustrative of his happy faculty of making himself pop- ular by being, inasocial way, ‘‘all things to ull men,” the following may be pertinent: Two young Creole gentlemen were succes- sively introduced to him. Are you married ?” asked the Marquis of the first. ‘*T am, General,” was the reply. ‘‘Happy man ! happy man !” said Lafayette, warmly pressing the youthful Benedict’s hand. The second made negative answer to the same question. ‘* Lucky dog! lucky dog!” said Lafayette, patting the bachelor on the back.—Harper’s Magazine.

Mrs. Garfield, widow of the late Presi- dent, does not like newspapers and their representatives. Perhaps she can not forget those {dreadful months seven years ago when her} husband lay dying from the effect of the assassin’s bullet and when the world-wide interest in his fate caused re- porters to exhibit an intrusiveness and apparent disregard of feeling in obtaining

Says the Fredericton Gleaner: Informa- ticn hasbeen lodged against a man named Steers, living at Waterville, Southampton, of having obtained a cow and two dollars in money under false pretences from a widow named Briggs. It is alleged that Steers went to the widow and told her that he had her son in jail at Woodstock, and asked her what she would give him if he did not keep her son there. The widow alleges that in erder to get her son out of jail, as she supposed, she gave Steers a cow and two dollars in money, which was all she had. Subsequently when her son returned home, she naturally spoke to him about his alleged imprisonment, and he denied that he had been in jail as stated or knew any- thing about the affair. Proceedings have been instituted against Steers.
