the different performances by the hearty ap- plause they rendered.

The half-yearly examination of our school took place on the fourth of January, and was attended by the trustees and a few of the parents. All present expressed themselves well satisfied with the progress made during the term. Our teacher, Miss Mary J. Smith, of New Glasgow, seems to possess the sym- pathy and respect of the scholars to a great degree, and will, we think, make a very suc- cessful teacher. If parents would show their interest in the school by attending examina- tions it be would be a great means of encour- aging both teacher and trustees.

The Farmers Convention is to meet in the ‘**Cavendish Hall” by invitation of Bay View and Cavendish Farmers Clubs, on Thursday, the 13th of January. We hope to see a good representation of leading farmers from all parts of the Island present on that occasion, and we will be prepared to entertain all who may favor us with their presence.

Hon. D. Ferguson will lecture for us on Wednesday evening, the 12th inst. We are not yet aware of what his subject will be, but we are satistied that there is a treat in store for us.

There is great surmising as to when the Dominion elections will come off ; but it would be about as easy to guess the date of the mil- lenuium.

Soth partiesare working up their cases as best they can. The Conservatives are fortunate in having one thorough temperance candidate in the field, and it is a pity they had not two of them, it would make their chances still better; but we trust they will see the propriety of leaving the ram business altogether in the hands of the other party, as they will need considerable liquid stimulant to wash down their stale speeches.

Our genial friend, John C. Clark, Esq., has left on a cruise to the far West. He goes as far as Minnesota, where he will spend-some time with his brothers-in-law, Rev. D. H. and B. F. Simpson, the former whom resides at Stillwater, and the latter at Duluth. He expects to go to Winnipeg and Port Arthur, and return by the C. P. R., north of Lake Superior. This will be a well earned vacation for one of our busiest and most successful

farmers. XXX, Jan. 5, 1887.

THE AGED KAISER REVIEWS HIS MILITARY CAREER.

The Emperor William, on the Ist Janu- ary inst., celebrated the eightieth annivers- ary of his entrance into the Prussian army by receiving all his commanding generals, headed by Crewn Prince Frederick William. The Crown Prince addressed the Emperor as follows:—‘‘The army celebrates with your majesty the day upon which, eighty years ago, you entered the army. On several occasions we have been fortunate in coming before our chief in war to thank him for leading us through severe struggles to glorious victories. To-day, however, your majesty can look upon sixteen years which have been richly blessed by peace— years,above all,dedicated to the undisturbed development and strengthening of an empire which was only established after lung waiting and struggling. This work of peace succeeded because your majesty’s competent and active leadership raised the capability of the army to that state of per- fection of which every German soldier is justly proud. The Prussia principle that no difference exists between the people and the army, because both are always ready to defend their] country, has, by your majesty’s care, become the property of the whole German nation. In this natural capability lies our greatest security for the maintenance of peace. May I, then, again tell your Majes- ty that our strong and united nation, in grateful love and faithfulness, always ready for sacrifices, trusts in its emperur and leader in war, looks with joyful confidence upon him as the preserver of the peace, and

fullness may dwell upon him.” The Em- peror, replying, referred to his father, who, he said, allowed him to enter the army with the hope that he would experience better times than Prussia had endured. Provi- dence had permitted him to see such hap- pier times in the fullest measure. These better days were especially due to the suc- cesses of the army. Here the Emperor, much moved, embraced the Crown Prince and afterwards Gen. Von Moltke, to whom he spoke in an earnest manner, thanking him for his unparalleled services. Finally turning to the other officers present he said

Sir, -—For some time I have been expect- ing to see in your columns a reply from some of the citizens of Georgetown, to the unwarrantable attack made by L. H. Davies, Esq., in a letter published in your columns on the 25th Noy. ultimo, on the electors of that town. In his letter, Mr. Davies said, “ I further said I thought that protection would be afforded by adopting the principle of ‘representation by popala- tion’ in the single chamber, if we are determined to have only one, I pointed out that the abolition of the Council would leave the small borough of Georgetown, with its few hundreds of voters,on the same footing as the rich aud populous districts of Belfast and Fort Augustus.” From this you can readily see that Mr. Davies, had he the power, would be inclined to take from Georgetown the privilege it has exercised for nearly forty years, and to make it plainer, a little frther on he says, ‘* This, [I contended, would be unfair and unjust.’” As Mr. Davies is the recognized leader of the Grit party, and has placed on record his belief in the advisa- bility of abolishing the Legislative Council, the electors of Georgetown may feel as- sured that when the Grits get into power their privilege of returning two members +o the Local Legislature will be abolished, and they will be tacked on to Murray Harbor or Cardigan districts. Some may think that Mr. Davies gwas not far & astray when he advocated the disfranchise ment of Georgetown; but when we remember that the representatives selected by Georgetown in the past, have been men of more than ordinary ability ; that two of those representatives have filled the honor- able positoin of Lieutenant-Governor of this Province ; that another of them was styled the ‘‘ grammarian ” of the House ; and that others have been noted for their ability as legislators; the people of this Province can find no reason to regret that the Town, Common and Royalty of George- town has constituted one of the Electoral Districts of this Island. And Mr. Davies should also remember that the celebrated Edmund Burke in one of his works said, ‘* The constitution of a country being once settled upon some compact, tacit or ex- pressed, there is no power existing of force to alter it, without the breach of the coven- ant, or the consent of all the parties.” Even if the majority of the representatives of this Province should vote to take away the right that Georgetown has, it would not be fair or just to do so. But, George- town returns two Liberal-Conseyvative mem- bers! and Mr. Davies, like hi¢ friend, Mr. Mowat, of Ontario, would like to remedy this state of affairs. Ifthe Grits were in power, by gerrymandering such as was late- ly practised in Ontario, the borough of Georgetown would be wiped out. Let the electors of Georgetown remember what will be their fate when the Grits gain power. The leader of the party has spoken, and his followers are salways ready to cry out ‘vox Daviesi, vox dei,” and his views will be followed, irrespective of every consider- ation, but party gain. No doubt the can- didates in the Grit interest who solicit the votes of the people of Georgetown, will say nothing of the *‘principle of representation by population.” The oily Doctor will fawn and flatter the electors of Georgetown, not- withstanding the fact that he wished to take the terminus of the railway to St. Andrew’s Point. The burly Doctor will expect sup- port, although he placed an open insult on Georgetown, by taking the Marine Hospital to Souris, instead of building it at the only proper harbor on_ this side of the Island. We will see if the electors of Georgetown will put up with this kind of usage, for any of them who vote fora Grit must approve of all these insults. Let the people of Georgetown become united in defence of their town and its rights, and the day fore- told by the poet when

“ Georgetuwn a city yet to be Prince Edward's easterr pride,” will 2awr, and the natural advantages of the town in conjunction with its magnifi cent harbor and contiquity to the fishing grounds, will be fully used by an enterpris- ing and industrial population. It has been too much the habit of even residents of Georgetown to decry the place. No town will ever grow unless the citizens have contidence in it sand themselves. if trade does not prosper in one way, it will in another, and Georgetown will get its share if the people work for it. 1 do not mean to say that a good business is not now done in Georgetown, for such would not be the fact. In no town of like size are thers so many citizens who are well off or well to do ; and although the trade there is not 80 lively as in some other places, perhaps it is on a surer foundatiou. I fear I trespass on your space, but { thought it only fair and just to say aword in favor of the town

iwhere many of my early days were passed,

What True Merit Will Do.

and in favor of a place that will in the future (when the Subway is built) be the port of call for the ocean steamers en route for Montreal. With direct railway conimu- nication with the mainland, the mail steamers from England would touch at Georgetown and land their mails and pas- sengers as they now do at Rimouski, for it would save nearly two days ocean voyaga, besides giving greater despatch.

With best wishes for the success of this Province in general, and Georgetown in particular, not forgetting Taz Examines and its staff,

I am, Sir, Yours sincerely, QO New Year, 1887.
