» the Exditor of the Hesutieers Sim,—Yon will do me a kindness if you al- low me space fora few lines in your paper. As the talk in town and country is about the New Asylum, I thought 1 would go and see for myself. i went out on Monday, April Sth ; and I found a kind of survey going on at the time. I! had a fair view of the work inside and outside. Seme of the names of those in- specting it were Mr. Corbett, from the City ; Mr. Rodd, from Summerside, and another from the southern part of the Island. They pointed out a number of stones laid in the outside of the wall that were not laid accord- ing tothe rules of masonry. You may want to know. where those stones are to be found. That is an easy maticr. In most of the parts of the wall, where the projections from the other walls in the ; ae iL is Wory batily ned where every other state has a sutticient bond or hold on its neighbors; not so ina number of those angles. Again, my attention. was taken with a hole f saw in the wall. It had been broken for the purpose of seeing how it was built; and I must say that 1 never saw such a piece of dry work in a wall of stone that mortar was to be used in connection with the stone. I know that they had a person to inspect the work ; but what he has been doing I cannot think. It appears to me that a pr actical man should be there all the time to watch the work in its construction. It is very easy for the contractors to save greatly on mortar when they heart the wall with dry stone. No wonder Mr. Stériing said in his letter, the secret those men had of building cheaper than other contractors,that they never paid out more than a dollar for a dollar’s worth of work. Very good, Mr. Sterling. Dry wails show that. But I must pass some things an- noticed this time ; but one more item I must notice. That is the sand on which the mortar was to be made, Now, every man that read the specifications knows that the sand in mak- ing the mortar was to be taken from a fresh water river. That was one of the reasons I did not tender for the Asylum; and I thought that the idea was carried ont, till I saw it ves terday, and I was surpised, and nota httle offended, No wonder the mortar washed out of the joints of the stone in the wall. Sand taken out of the river late in the fall and built in the wall with salt and all! What a piece of unfairness toward me and others who posed the sand would have to be imported. What is the reason those favorites, those cheap men, shaald be sent for---hunted up—to make the country pay for it. Somebody may ans- wer this question if they please. At is said that a ‘new broom sweeps clean.” If the parties that did this thing had been tarred and feathered, they would have received no more than their conduct deserved. They have set a trap for themselves that will spring on them at the next clection, or lam mistaken. Thank- ing you jor your space, J remain \ ours, CHARLES

present crisis for accomplishing it. That, were it accomplished, would cause the Slavs of Southern Europe to look to Vienna rather than to St. Petersburg, and might in time to come prevent Russia from using the aspirations of the whole Slavic race as a lever for her ambition, to the extent that she has been able to do in time past.
Apropos of this view of Bismarck and his policy, he is not the first European states- man whose policy has given employment to what may be called a school of commenta- tors. The late Lord Palmerston had a synilar distinction conferred upon him in his time, and his policy was as elaborately discussed then by Continental experts as that of Bismarck is now. He was always on the side of freedom and progress, a fact which made him at once disliked abroad and popular at home. Englishmen may have their sigh of regret for this indication of a de} varted sceptre ; by, if they have, they need be at no loss whom to blame for it. . It was after the death of Palmerston, and under the rule of Mr. Gladstone, that the change took place ; though ‘it has to be added that the ex-Premier has been able to follow up his unpatriotic work perhaps even more effectively in Opposition then when in contro! of the nations’s affairs. To him, in a great measure, itis due that Bismarck’s policy is to-day looked upon as what must ‘prevail in Enrope, no matter who says nay.

Money as a Source of H fappiness.
Ze who gra asps at large and speedy re-
sults, who rushes into speculation, borrow- ing freely, expanding a business beyond its leg ‘itimate resources, has a fitful, feverish pleasure which even success cannot preserve and failures must utterly ruin. Money gained thus rapidly never gives the perma- nent happiness which is hoped for; exhaus- tion, weariness, ennui ensue, while still oftener what is thus s suddenly and lightly ac- quired as suddenly and rapidly takes its flight. But he who is content to begin humbly, to toil for what he gets, to extend
nly so far and so fast as his actual means will warrant, who craves nothing more than the fair meed of his exertions,and prefers te risk only what belengs to him, while know- ing nothing of the ex:iting pleasure of the speculatd wr, yet lays te foundation of hap- piness w hich will grov and endure, because the principles which ° iphold it are eternal. The same is true in expenditure, pieasure which rightly belong: to it isprogressive. It has small beginnings limited rigidly to the means possessed, ard only expanding in proportion. No one can comprehend the full satisfaction which the spending of money can give who aas not subjected him- self to the restraint which economy, pru- dence, and strict equity impose. Seeming impediments to his desires, they are yet the necessary barriers beyond which the fulfil- ment of those desires cease to give happi- ness. One with tasie, ingenuity and self. denial, who plans and labors to make an at- tractive home out of moderate means, who contrives to extract the blessings of life for a family, in the order of their importance, and to save a little at the end of a pleasant surprise or a healthful amusement, knows far more of the real happiness of expendi- ture than one who disburses witha lavish profusion that knows no stint and compels no sacrifice.

man interests, and that Germany neithei fears nor reason to fear anybody. Among close observers of his language and policy the prevailing belief is that Bismarck does not look yor any trouble between Aus- tria and Russia—that is, he knows that one or the other, and probably Russia, will ai bhe last moment yield what is required to avoid war between the two, and that there- fore there is no need to declare himself on either side, or mar that cordial understand- ing which he says still exists between the three Emperors. This view is somewhat confirmed by a recent dispatch to the eifect that the idea of an Anglo Ausirian alliance has been abandoned. ‘The Nation holds to the theory that Bismarck’s design is to make

CrackeD Waeat.-—This exeellent dish is often spoiled by very good cooks who think they must stir it all the time to keep it from burning. Too much stirring makes it like paste; putting in more water when nearly done has the same effect. One-third of wheat, by measure, to two-thirds of water, soft, if you it, will make it about right. The water
should be cold when the wheat is put in; it should cook slowly and be covered closely, In this way searcely any stirring will be found necessary.
