THE DAILY EXAMIN
A Canadian Voice in Australia.
Dr. Grant, the large minded Principa; of Queen's University, has been lecturing the people of Australia, telling them what he knows about,Canada and giving them The Morning Herald, of
Sydney, reports some of his sayings. We
xi vod ad Vice,
quote :
‘In Canada nature suspended operation for half the year, but here she went on all the year round, so that they could often raise seyeral crops in the year. This abundance of natural advantages was not, hewever, without its drawbacks, as physical advantages were not always for the best. The loug winter in Canada tended to encourage the finest form of life, home life, and the young men were in- duced to study, and the people were obliged to be hardy, thoughtful and self-denying ; and these were the virtues which, after all, made & nation.
There truth and wisdom in these words, besides much of hope for the future of ourcountry. Then the future of Avs-
tralia was considered by the learned Princi-
are
pal, who said :—
‘The quickening of national sentiment was a matter of great importance, which meant, in the first place, a United Australia; in this matter they were somewhat ahead in Canada. Another Wentworth ought to rise up here to- day and form a united Australia on the lines which Canada had adopted. In the old days the Canadian provinces spent a good deal of time in carrying out tariffs against each other; but they had at length emerged from this state, and the effect had been good in widen ing the nations! character, and it had also made them more modest, for while they tel it was good to be a Canadian, still the special glory was that they were and must be, at the same time, Britons. (Applause.) Australia, tuo, must unite, for it was impossible without union to have common action, and he would invite them to seek for union at the earliest possible moment. From no quarter of Aus- tralia could the proposal more fittingly come than from this colony, and from the men whom he now saw around him. The great secret of the American and Canadian strength was their internal union; for no matter how much they might differ with regard to ex- ternal relations, no one ever dreamed of at- tempting to interfere with the union between the different States. Canada had succeeded in securing the union of her provinces in spite of many difficulties, and it was a matter of the greatest importance that in view, not only of their own interests, but of the relations be- tween the colonies, that Australia should unite and form one nation.”
Continuing, he declared that,-
** It would not be wise to break off their re- lations with the Mother Country, as they were too small to form a notion of their own ; and besides, no notion had ever risen to great- ve83 Which had not respected its past, and the nation which subordinated sentiment to money-making was doomed. Every colonial statesman he had met was averse to separa- tion; but he wished to put the matter on higher ground tha» either interest or the fear of aggression, as the grip of honor should be binding on the nation.” “ * * * “They were members of the greatest commonwealth ever known, yet were asked to become instead
had
mere Canadians or Australians !
Principal "Grant's remarks as to the Australia and Canada, were eminently practical and to He said :—
**There should be the closest possible in- tercourse between the countries, and the first thing he wouid advucate would be a cable be- tween New Zealand and Vancouver, which would not be opento the same chances of interruption as the present line. This seemed to him to be a most natural and proper incasare from every point of view, but espe- cially from the socia! point of view, as cabie- grams at the present rate cost far too much. Jt was pleasant for a man to be able to keep up communications with his relations, but the tariff now was simply prohibitive. He hoped they would push this through, and he hoped also to soon see steamship communica- tion between Australia and Vancouver. It was one of the first duties of a Government to see to the matter of cheapcable and telegra- phic communication. Si the next place, trade relations should be cultivated between Canada and Australia, for trade was life, and he hoped that the proposed conference be- tween Australia and the culonies would come off.”

The request for his recall, as conveyed to the Premier by Mr. Phelps, was based, not on the reply to the Murchison letter, but on some newspaper interview relating to it. ina letter to Lord Sackville, dated Oct. 27, the Premier that he glad that ‘“*no truth in the rumor that diplomatie representa-

So late as November 2, the American minister was unable to give the precise words which his (rovernment considered objectionable. It was nut till two days later (November 4) that Lord Salisbury received a copy of the ‘* Murchison ” letter, and Lord Sackville’s reply, in a communication from that gen- tleinan himself. Therefore, as the Mon- treal Gazette remarks, ‘* Lord Salisbury had ho cognizance whatever of the gravamen of the charge on which the recall was asked for until the whole unpleasant business was vver; an tas he declined to admit the pos- sibilicy of any action founded on the publii- cation of a private letter, he had really,

HER FIRST MATE AND A SAILOR AND Is BADLY DAMAGED,
(Halifax Chronicle, 29th.)
Much anxiety has beeu manifested dur- ing the past two days over the safety of the steamer Worcester, which left Boston for Halifax on Saturday last. But shortly before ten o'clock, almost before any body was* aware of it, the Worcester steamec into port and docked ab her wharf. When the old familiar whistle was heard there was a general feeling of relief, and crowds hurried to the wharf to meet friends or get a view of the long and anxiously looked-for vessel. Captain Nickerson reports 4s fol-
lows :—‘* We left Buston at 2 p. m., Satur- day. At 2 o'clock Sunday morning 1b was
blowing # moderate gale, which gradually increased in strength, and at 6 o'clock it had developed into a heavy gale from east- north-east, with squalls of rain. The ship was then hove to, and remained so until 10 o'clock Tuesday morning, when she started ahead slowly, the sea having gone down somewhat. At 9.30 o’clock on ‘Tuesday night we made Seal Island light. Fearing that the coal would ran short the engines were reduced to two-thirds speed. The heavy fog which prevailed retarded pro- gress considerably. At4 p. m. yesterday
made Beatty’s Island, and at dark was off
the entrance of the harbor.” The captain states that he has been going to sea 26 years; but never before did he encounter such territic ‘vind and sea as prevailed dur- ing the storm, the sea washing over the ship in perfect torrents. The steamer, however, received no serious damage. While the gale was at its height, the cap- tain, who was standing in the pilot house, observed two tremendous seas rcliing down ou the vessel, and he thought sure that the house he was in would be smashed to atoms, but juss as she appeared to be plunging into it she bobbed over it like a duck, receiving no damage and only a slight flooding. The passengers, of which there were 90 on board, took a yood mavy tumbles at times, it being with the greatest difficulty that they could keep in their bunks, and numbers of them were heard to thank their stars that they had reached terra firma. THE CARROLL'S TERRIBLE PASSAGE.
The Chronicle's Boston correspondent telegraphed the subjvined report last night: Following the Cunarder Scynthia came the steamship Carroll from Halifax, and her battered appearance told the story of her terrible struggle with the sea. Her colors. which were half-masted, caused a sensa- tion, and as soon as she was ducked the story of her disastrous trip was learned. Her commander, Capt. Brown, reports that this trip was the worse he ever experienced in his 30 years of service, and the craft herself bore stronger testimony than words that be spoke the truth. In fact her arri- val at all seems to have been due to mag- nificent seamanship on the part of her otlicers and crew. Capt. Brown reports that on Nov. 26th, at 12.30 a. m., when 39 miles east-south-east from Thatcher's Is- land, atremendous sea struck the vessel] on the port bow, and breaking on board carried away the pilot house and steering gear, and also flooded the forward cabin. There were seven men in the pilot house when the sea struck, including Capt. Brown and Mate Wright. The mate was swept over- board and lost. Martin Haley, the look- out on deck at the time, was also swept overboard, and although a line was hove to him, which he grasped, he was alsv lost. Captain Brown had his head badly cut by being knocked down. Purser Nickeron, who was also in the pilot house at the time,
had his leg badly injured. Mr. C. D. Wright, the mate, who perished, was 62
years of age, and belonged at Wareham, Mass., where he leaves a widow. Seaman Haley was a native of St. John, Nfid., and was about 30 years of age.
THE PILOT'S STATEMENT.
The pilot, Capt. J. A. Briggs, who was in the pilot house when that frail structure was carried away, was found in one of the staterooms changing his clothes for a brand new suit, for all his clothes had gone over-
board. He said: ‘* Well, it was a tough time. We came out of Halifax at 4 p. m.
on Saturday, with the wind south, rather light. About 8 o’clock Sunday mvurning the wind came round into the east-north- east and begaa to blow. At 11.40 a. m. the same day, put the ship’s head to the wind and sea, which was running then very high. The vessel worked first-class allthe time. We must have then been al- most 50 miles off Thatcher’s Island, when we headed her in to it. Things went along all right until about midnight, Monday, when the captain, mate, purser, the man at the wheel and myself were in the pilot house, when we saw a teriflic sea coming. ‘ Look at that fellow,’ called the captain. The mate, poor Mr. Wright, had his head out of the starboard window just as the captain spoke. Well, in all my time at sea, I never saw anything like it. It must have been a tidal wave. It seemed to tower above the bows of the vessel, and then it broke aboard. That was the last that I knew until | found myself with both hands fast hold of the pipes of the radiator and felt some one struggiing benesth me. It was the captain, who was trying to re- gain his feet, calling all the while for Mr. Wright, the mate. As soon as we could
GET THE SALT WATER OUT OF CUR EYES
we found ourselves in a terrible plight. The pilot house, all but a small portion of the port side, was gone, aud with it the wheel and steering gear. The forward or forecastle hatch was washed away, and the water was pouring down into the forward cabin. A blow that the captain had re- ceived on the head made him for a_ time unable to do much, and finding that I wa: not hurt badly I mustered the crew and started to rig a ‘make-shift’ steering gear. We were fortunate in having among the passengers a number of sailors and old sea captains, who knew just how to take hold. and in about an hour's time we had _ the vessel under control. The ship behaved well. She fell off a little, but aot anothe: sea boarded her. At daylight on Tuesday morning we headed for land and a 1.030 made the Iles of Shoals an then felt our way up to Boston light, whicl was passed at 2 u’clock, and we made fas to the duck at 4 o'clock, after the wors' four Gays I ever spent at sea.” As may be supposed, at the time of the disaster al.

The attendance was very 40 “ly when the muddy streets and the threaten: | ing weather is taken into consideration, | But all who girded on battle with the mud between their homes | and the bazaar were rewarded when they | reached their journey’s end. ‘The old Mar- | ket Hall was very tastefully decorated.

Immediately on entering | one was met by pretty flower-sellers with pretty flowers, who successfully button- holed the majority of the gentlemen pre- sent. Tables weil stocked with useful and fancy articles were placed on each side of the Hall, and were presided over by busy and enthusiastic saleswomen, who felt no compunction whatever in asking a puzzled newspaper man if he did not want to buy ‘: this dear little rolling-pin,” said rolling- pin being wondrously made and utterly unlike the substantial utensil with which his erring youth is so painfully familiar. The tea-tables were the most prominent feature, and were bountifully supplied, care- fully attended, and —as they deserved to be —liberally patronized. Huagry boys,
aye and old folks too, sat dowa, partys,
and arose, teeling kindly towards the pro- moters of the bazsar. At 8,350 oysters, were served and discussed with eyvi- dent appreciation. St. Peter’s Boys’ Band was in attendance and played several se- lections. Altogether, the bizaar was most enjoyable, and, financially, a success, the amount realized being about $659. The only drawback was the defective ventilation, We hope that on the occasion of the next bazaar within the same building, the com- mittee in charge wiil take the hint, and by lowering the temperature, enab'e some poor fellow-creature, who is baying something he doesn't want, to *‘ keep cook”
