An Islander, writing from Colorado says :—“ While at the Spring I enw a petrified man. [le was 7 feet 53 inches in height, and weighed 550 pounds. His hands and feet are in proportion to his body, and he hasa tail four or five inches long. Barnum was there and oftered Mr, Conant, the discoverer, #25000; but he would not accept it as he intends to travel

To f ha kevhitni of i¢ fea Crier The Patriot says Hon. W. D, Stew. wrt got.interrupted at Crapaud, while

labouring ta make the audience belive that he and his Government were all that could be expected from the sons of Adam Yes, it is true thit he was interrupted. You would have laughed to listen to tha poor blue blood labouring to clear him

selfand the rest of the gang. I dare say you can well imogine him standing forth, with all the pomposity of an oracle, pour. ing forth a torrent of words such as would scary the heart out of a red In

lian. No doubt his wonderfully — per-

}sUtsivee arguments would have had some

effect on the eirs and hearts of an ignorant lot.of Indians; but for Mr. Stewart to come among-t the people of the First Dis. trict to make them believe anything he might utter is, to use the mildest term, an insult on the peop'e. But for us, boys, it was the greatest fun out to see the [editor of the J’uirivt there doing bis prettiest to make Crapaud swallow the pill. It was no go. No, no. Poor Stewart seeks strange quarters for re-election, Was he really interrupted? Well, now, was he “ tarred anifeathered?’ lexpect not. The peo ple are too well behaved here to treat any one in that way, let him be ever so bad. They will bide their time for revenge, | would like tosee Mr. W. D. S/ewart come to this District again with his fine stories o! what he would do. Well we know what he has done, poor fellow. Howis Mr. Me- [ntosh getting on with the Asylum? Per haps he may get an interruption there too. Wel, if he does it would not be right, since he took so much trouble amongst the ice last winter. He may get an interruption about that wharf at the shore of the Model ['arm, too, if it’s true that he got one built there by the, con- tractors of the Asylum. What a shame to interrupt him, wasn’t it, Mr. Patriot? Now, Mr. daériol, you might just as well put kerosene oil on the fire to keep 1t from burning 4s to think that you can keep yourself in office and bolster up injustice by calling it nice names. A man is judged by the company he keeps. Yours truly, A LisTENER Crapaud, Oct. 10.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.

Wasnincton, D. C., Oct. 9, 1877. Our city was visited last Thursday by one of the most violent storms of wind and rain it has ever been my fortune to wit- ness. It was little less than a tornado. Roofs, chimneys and trees were demo!}- ished, while fora time the air was fairly

filled with hats, umbrellas, papers and’ sticks. Only those who were caught out

in the first hard gust were sufferers, for peopie here are too well acquainted with such storms to venture out after one ha- set in.

The fall weather made its appearance with the month of ‘ Gay Octcber.” We have had naught fut summer before. Congressmen and those who propose spend« ing the coming season at the capital are arriving by every train, and on all sides the prospect is fair for a winter of unusua! social and political jnterest Meantime the Capitol, which will of course be the centre of attraction, hes had its toilet made more elaborately than for many years. be. fore. Bathed clean in paint and white. wash curled with over five miesof steam and air pipes, crimped with new ventilat- ing apparatus, and clad in robes of fresh, bright carpeting and uphoistery, wa hardly recognize our Capitol. Outside, too, in grounds and driveways splendid improve- ments have been made since the last Se8. | sion. A hundred and thirty-five workmen | have been employed on them all summer, | Lawns have been sodded and sown with Kentucky clue vrass, red top and clover ; trees and shrubbery have been set out; ornamental | treliises erected and vines planted to} them; fountains and statues placed in some of the parks; and the!) walks and driveways smoothly paved. During the past year over thirty large trees aad fifty small ones have been trans- planted, and one hundred Oriental Plane trees hive been imported; 7,837 plants and trees have been set out, and IS 000 yards of the best a:pbalt pavement laid.

SUMMERSIDE Oct..12, Oysters have been coming into town in large quantities this past week. They sell at $1.30 to $1.40 per barrel. The teamer Miramichi, on her way to Mont- real, took 750 barrels on Tuesday. This shipment was Monday’s catch.

The Mouclon Times is sold on our streets in the evenings, on the arrival of the boat from Shediac.

The Teaehers of Prince County have formed what is called a * Teachers’ Instis tute."’ P. Gunn, Esq ,is the President, Che object of this institution is, as a cor respondent ina late issue of the Journal puts it, ** for mutual improvement and the sharpening of our intellects.” Quitea number of Teachers were present ata meeting held in the Grammar School, on Thursday last.

Mr. John Lawson, of the Charlottetown Patriot, is 1 town visiting his friends.

A young man, belonging to Wellington, ; was biought before James Campbell, Esq , on Thursday, charged with shooting «a horse belonging to one of his neighbors. He was discharged.

The cricket mitch between Summerside and Charlottetown has been postponed on account of the wet weather,

Perhaps it would be interesting to your readers to know that horse racing is not all the “go” up here. A dog fight don’t amount to much; but when you sce a man pullout $20and offer to put it up that a city dog can ‘‘knock spots’’ out of our town “ pups’ 16 is rather exciting.
