A TRAVELLER'S TESTIMONY

Sin,—Paradise is lost. If any P.E., Islander doesn’t believe it—thinks it may

be sought and found somewhere in Amer-

ict, anywhere but at home, that individual

bas not been off the Island. Let him

travel that Le may the better judge. Is

he a mechanic ? Let him visit any of the

great cilies on either side of the boundary

and learn that the average city mechanic

works half his time and _balf starves the

otter half. Is he asmall trader? Let

him visit Bosion, New York or Chicago

and know that the corner grocer’s custom-

ers may buy at retail certain goods in his

line atthe big department stores at the

rate he must pay by the box, barrel or

gross, and some such at less than cost of production, the big store selling other goods in the grocery department the value of which is not as commonly known at prices which coverthe loss, And so of shoes, tin ware, etc. Goods are regularly sold in all departments at a manifest under valuation to induce reteil purclas- ers to gotothe department stores for all they buy and so force small competitors out of business. Is the dissatisfied des- pondent one a farmer? Let him havea look at the here brown pastures and meadows in Ontario or the Western States insummer and fail and see the whole stock living off the stocks and being fed directly as inwiater. Lethim eee che barren(stony, boulder- burthened New England farms such of them as have not already starved stock and owners of them once and finally—such of them as bave not had the shame of their nakedness hid-

den by maniling forest growth, the

dwelling bouses and barns and ort houses and stone fences upoa them visible among st the foliage,—and there are thousands of such utterly abandoned farms in Maine and New Hampshire. Do let him visit districts in northern New York along the inland water front and fiid that milk

delivered at producer’s nearest R R station

to go to New York City, say three hundred wiles away, briogsthe farmer four cents a gallon iu summer and five in winter, the cans returnable of course. Hence, milk

in New York city aad Jersey City sells as long as three cents a quart in tome groc~ ery Stores—good miik too. Or let the Islander go to Indianaor Lllinois and see as I have that the timothy hay crop may

be failure tee-totally, theclover crop next to nothing, potatoes the size of mar - bles, and oats actually too short to be cut by reaper and therefore pastured, and such where v0 wavure is applied or needed. And let him note further the canal—like open ditches made end kept at immense local public expense and the equally indiss spensible tiie ditching and draining, the latter at corresponding individual cost, — aod the great cost of gravellicg prairie roads where no gravel is to be hed near bye, that spring and fall they may not be bottomless muck bede,—and corn bringing fifteen ceuts @ bushel! and oats, if any there be, at ten cents, and hogs aud turkeys selling alive at four and a half and five centsa pound; let the Islander note this and wish bimeelf @ prairie farmer. Or let him go to the cotton states and fiod most of the white people, as of course all tbe blacks outside the city, town and village, living on hoe cake,corn cake and fried pork, when they can get the pork, on that and little else all the vear—living thus in the worst of human habitations, hovels that have not, that never had and never will have a equare of glass withia their open window holes—bovels thro’ zhe log walls of which pne might fling his hat, yes, live in such, ete born and die in such winter and summer—huts that bave nothing within them of value worth mentioning save three Or four shotguns and rifles, ADY one of which would seem to be worth more than the shanty they are in; the building elevated about three feet from the ground and supported by blocks, dignified by the name pillars, 80 raised that the snakes may not enter and that the starved yellow doge and biack and tan hounds to the total number of four to sixOn the premises may have shelter from sun and rain and the pigs a place to sleep in at night. Let the dissatisfied island farmer go down South, rent twenty to fifty acres or take the land on shares and live thus amongst a horde of thiey- ing negroes, swallow quinine and cal. owel for malaria chills aod fever and so forth, work undera broiling sun with a hoe in one hand anda fan in the other at raising cotton for five cents a pound baled for shipment,and be ever liable to be seized by a howliog mob and hanged and bullet-riddled without judge or jury, should some man or some woman raise a lie about him or should he be suspected of criminality in act or intention. Oh, but you say, as for the open conditions of the dwellings, the country is warm. Yes and hot much of the year; but to my

personal knowledge the temperature in Northern Mississippi was down one morning the other winter to five above zero, aud during the bight previous twelve inches of snow fell — snow that took ten days to go. But enough of euch

tales of woe.

I have seen much of British America and very much of the United States,vorth south, east and west, and my conclusion is that there is not another area of like ex. tent in either country the eqaal of Priuce Edward Island in agricultural re. sourcesand annustl produc‘iveness. and

for renumerative tillage, or for the genera] health, prosperity, comfort and happiness ofits people—a people whose intelligeace, political economy, thirft and industry have with the help of God made the great little country what it s,even to its gre:t fer~ tility productivenese.

How strange, how regretable, that a little breadth of intervening water serves to keep people spart in person and in sympathy. Instance, the inhabitants of Grea’ Britain and continental Evrope—fo England and Ireland,—and nearest home, of Cape Breton Island azd Nova Scotia proper—and last not leastof P E Island aud the Maritime Provincesa few miles

away. Is it mot quite too bad J

’ that to the Prince Edward Islander the people of New Brunewick and Nova Scotia are ‘‘foreignera” rather thau fellow citizens rnd neighbora? Brooklyn bridge made New Yerk and Brooklyn one, atunnel would powerfully tend to unite and unify yon P E Island and us main- landers, but why wait for it? ~for the unat- tainable in our day? Will nothing break the shell? Why not run Neptune’s blovk ade? Why not look upon and re gard the hand-breath of intervening water as ore should so much—so, littlhe—inte:y.e'rg land?

Has any Prince Edward Islander bitherto eufiered bimeelf to be cribbed and cabined and combinrd body and spirit in the en-

groaning isvlating waters of the Gulf? If 80 let him take leave to depart. Let him remem ber ,

P. EK, Island is not a St. Helena. Let bim narrow straits. Let him visit Nova Scotia or New Brunewick, one or both, if ne go po further. Let him journey therein in one direction and another.

By travel on the mainland and the ac qnaistanceship with its people that come of personal intercourse and the exchange of courtesies and ideas such Islander if any such there be, should have the range of histhoughts widene: and his sympathies widened and deepened. He sbould not love his island home the less—he ghoul retain and cherish a special regard for it, but he should incline to look upon it ever after as his home district, a8 a part only of his home land—of his and our common couptry. He should go back resolved that thereafter no pent up Utica shall contract his powers, he should awake to the real izaiion of the fact that the whole Domi- nion of Canada is hisas di.ectly and ar fully as ours, his aad our magnificent es- tate in commou—al appy hunting ground over which at will as by kingly right he may range and roam in quest or in pursuit of knowledge, health or pleasu:e— pf fame or fortune.

Then how much all mag learn by travelling that books and periodi:als and lecturers canuot tell him. How travelling serves 10 correct misaporehension —t o liberalize—to enlighten. How promotive is it Of spiritual and mental growth.
