The Late Emperors Diary.
GREAT INTEREST EXCITED IN ENGLAND.
The following is cab.ed from London by ‘“*A Member of Parliament:” Nothing has been recently talked of but the diary of the late Emperor Frederick. To tind that it was not really Prince Bismarck who was the creator ot New Germany, but the Crown Prince, on whom he had affected to look down, is a matter of sensation such as Europe has not known since the outbreak of the war which made the unification of Germany possible. One who is well ac- quainted with the secrets of the court circle, informed me some weeks ago that the utmost b tterness was felt at the very recollection of the late Emperor's policy and aims. His son has permitted himself to speak of these aims in the most disres- pectful language. The idea of extending reforms, of enlarging public liberties, of removing shackies from the press, is as odious to Emperor William as it has ever been to Prince Bismarck himself. These projects were in the mind of Emperor Frederick, who all through his active life had to tight against Bismarck, who treated him with as much contempt as he could safely venture to display. Bismarak lost no opportunity of manifesting his dislike to the young man, who not only refused to accept his minister’s plans, but absolutely had the audacity to conceive plans of hisown. Inall this can anyone see ** the week hand moved only by a wo- man’s?” That was Bismarck’s description of the late Emperor to the friend of mine above referred tu. The woman, the widow of the Empevor, is indeed known to be the ablest of the English Royal family, the one who inherits the li n’s share of the sagacity and shrewdness of her father, Prince Al- bert. She has not in any way brought about the publication of this tell-tale diary, but surely she would have been jus- tified in doing so if only because it viudi- cates both herself and her husband from the torrent of heartless calumnies which has been let loose upon Europe for months. It is useless to conceal the fact that the difference between the English court and Prince Bismarck have long been of a very serious character. The firmness of the late Emperor, his policy of progress, his repugnance to mere physical force asa means of Government, were all ascribed by Bismarck to the over-ruling influence of his English wife. everything an influence, an evil genius; and that evil genius came from England. Hence he dreaded the accessionof Frederick tu the throne. Hence sinster stories which were spread abroad during the melancholy exile at San Remo. Hence, also, the hostility which was constantly shown toward the Empress by the court party in Berlin, a hostility which the death of her husband did nothing to soften. I am assured by one who cannot be deceived on this point, that Prince Bismarck said not long ayo: **We must do ali we can to obliterate every trace of the short and disgraceful reigu of the late Emperor.” He permits himself much wider latitude of expression in regard to the Empress. All this is weil known to the English court, and it must have added not a little to the suffering which her daughter’s terrible bereavement brought apon the Queen.
Then, too, it is well known that the estrangement of the present Emperor from his mother is of an almost hopeless charac- ter. Among the sorrows of Frederick’s heavy-laden life— sorrows borne with hero- ism without parallel in the history of the great—not the least was that caused by the verification of his foreboding that his son would fall entirely under the duminion of Prince Bismarck. Europe wondered not at. this when it believed that Bismarck was the author of German unity; but now that he is removed from this pedestal and the figure of Emperor Frederick p!aced there in his stead, what are men to think and say ?

A Terrible Engine of Dest-uction.
Of all the engines of wholesale murder the Lebel gun 1s considered the most fatal. The secret lies partly in its smokeless powder. The army that has the benefit of it can conceal from the enemy the pres- ence of both its artillery and its infantry. The opposing battalions may hear the thunder of the guns, but they cannot dis- cover the situation of the marksmen nor the object at which they are aiming. It will be equally impossible to estimate the distance or ascertain the direction in which the fire should be returned. The cavalry will be helplessly exposed to slaughter. Strategy on a large scale wiil be impossible, and military tactics will be placed on an entirely new basis. Of course, such a weapon is not likely to remain long in possession of one army, though certainly the Minie rifle in the hands of French, and the needle gun inthe hands of Prussian suldiers played havoc in the Crimea and Austro-German wars among foes not sv well provided. The needle gun, which enabled the Prussians to shoot six times as fast as the Austrians, has long ceased to he admirable, having been succeeded by far superior breech-loaders. A German journal questions the advantage to civi- lization of such improvements in the art of killing, but when Germany possesses or beats Lebel’s invention, it wil not be squeamish in availing itself ofthe inven- tor’s skill,—Ez.

Items From Pineite.
A great dea! has been said about the steamer Eidon, plying between this port and Charlottetown. The people of this vicinity are very much dissatisfied on ac- count of her not making regu ar trips. She ig advertised to run every Thursday. In- stead of guing to Charlottetown she is as jlikely to go to Murray Harbor with the freight and passengers from Pinette. Is it any wonder that the people of this place do uot patronize such a steamer. She is sup- posed to be called after the village of El- don, better known as Cross Roads.
Saturday, the 22nd ult., was a big day for the Eldon, as the peopleof Point Prim were having their annual Sunday School Picnic, on the beautiful grounds of Mrs. Y. Young, close by the bridge, and seeing her lying idle at the wharf they chartered her for a sail out to the bar. Some of the parties on board were watching very close- ly in the hope of seeing Mr. Weish, M. P., vut there with his pick and shovel digging away at the bar, as he failed to secure the service of the Dredge.
I always heard of the Puoint Primers being successful in al] their undertakings, so their picnic proved
to be a grand success. Everything was conducted in grand style, as they are a people that are social and entertaining. Many friends who were invited spent a very pleasant afternoon. Their picnic re- flects great credit on the people of that place. They will always have a hearty welcome to Pinette.
As this has been a very rainy season it accounts for the North Pinette Bridge being ina deplorable condition; still we know that the C. P. W. will not fail to see it repaired before shipping.
A. Vickerson, Esq., is about completing his new house—one of the neatest cottages in Belfast.
Mr. Theo. Lantz has fitted up his steam launch Willowby. She will leave here in afew days for Summerside, where he in- tends sailing her.
We are sorry to state that Squerebrig Bros are about leaving this place. They have been here about three years. During that time they have proved themselves to be amiable gentlemen in every respect. We wish them success in wherever they may make their future home. They sold their beautiful farm and residence. Capt. | AngusJ. Murchison, of Point Prim, was the ‘purchaser. We congratulate him on secur- ing for himself such a valuable property, ‘located in such a convenient piace and wish ‘him every success.
‘ Critic. Pinette Bridge, Oct. 2, 1888.
The Uprisirg in Thibet.
Advices from India state that the British ‘authorities have seized documents in the palace of the Rajah of Sikim, proving that the uprising of the Thibotans was directly incited by the Llama of Thibet, and posi- tively establishing the complicity of that potentate’s Chinese advisers. The chain of evidence is said to extend from the Chinese officials in Thibet directly back to ‘the Government at Pekin, and it is ex- pected that the latter will be asked by Lord Salisbury to expliin the discrepancy between Chinese protestations of friesd- ship for Englend and ignorance of lawless- /ness on the part of the Thibetans and the simultaneous fomentation of insurrection and invasion by officers of the Chinese Government.

Problems for Atheists.
If you meet an atheist do not let him en- tangle you into the discussion of side issues. As tomany points which he raises yoa must make the rabbi’s answer, ‘I do not know.” But ask him these seven ques- tions:
First ask him, what did matter come from? Can a dead thing create itself ?
Second. Ask him, where did motion come from ? Third. Ask him, where life came from,
save the finger tip of omnipotence ?
Fourth. Ask him, whence came the ex- quisite order and design in nature. If one told you thet millions of printers’ types should fortuitously shape themselves into the divine comedy of Dante or the plays of Shakespeare, would you, not think him a mad man ?
Fifth. Ask him whence came conscious- ness.
sixth. Ask him who gave you free will.
Seventh and last. Ask him whence came conscience.— Archdeacon Farrar.
A Too Logical Chinaman.
Sometimes strange difficulties are en- countered by the young ladies who are en- deavoring to teach Christianity to the Chinese in the Suaday school The most conscientious, as well as one of the bright- est and prettiest of these teachers was at- tempting ina Brovklyn school recently to inculcate upon the heathen mind of a sleek looking Mongolian the lesson of charit towards ail. ‘‘God loves every one. She said. ‘* We should love every one.” The Chinaman looked meekly up into her face and quietly asked: ‘* Does God love me?” ** Yes,” the young lady replied. **Do you love every one?” was the next
vinted inquiry. ae Yes,” he caeneend,
** Do vou love me?”
** Yes- yes.”
** Wiil you mally me ?”
There was no direct answer to this ques- tion, the teacher has since changed her pupil for a Cainaman of less logical turn of mind.
