Tue Pioneer is unduly excited about the tunnel matter. It aeks:
Is it true, as Howlan alleges, that Palmer is not on the staff of and has no connection
? If so, what confidence
with Sir Douglas Fox ; Palmer's
can the English engiceer place in P
report’ If there is no official connection he- tween the the two engineers what was the sense of the government giving the contract of the boring experiments to Palmer?’
The answer to this is that the core of each boring has been carefully preserved, and that the cores will shew exactly what is in the beds under the Strait. Mr. Palmer's report will not affect the tunnel or weigh with Sir Douglas Fox one way or the other. The borings will show for themselves.
The Pioneer remarks that Mr. Palmer's contract has not been performed, and arzu s that it will not be performed. Mr. Hendry, the Government engineer, throws a flood of light upon these points; and yet in the dark. Mr.
the Pioneer is still
Hendry says:
‘‘In answer to the question whether the wotk might have been finished had Mr Palmer given it his personal superintendence and what wes the cause of his non-completion of the contract, 1 would say that had the work been vigorously and systematically prosecuted there is no reasonable doubt that

The Revised Statutcs. Ovurk precious local government have ne- glected the revised statutes, as indeed they have neglected almost every interest of the country. These statutes are called for by mag strates all over the Province. Our pro- vincial laws are, at present, in a state of confusion worse confounded. A commis- sion of lawyers revised them several years age at a cost of several thousands of dollars, As revised, they have been ready to submit to the Legislature. But our Premier has done nothing con- cerning them, and no other member of the Government is able to bring them before the pevple’s representatives. It is all very well for the legal fraterni y to have muddled s atutes. But the magis‘rates are continually at lors tu know how to proceed, and suitors have to bear the brunt of mistakes which are unavoidable under the existing condi- tion of the laws, The conduct cf Premier Peters, in this regard, is in the interest of his craft. But it is contrary to the inter-
all the borings would now be completed, and, ests of the country, aad it is vexatious to
that it was not so prosecuted was maiply due to the fact that during the greater part of the time there was no one on the ground having any authority to provide plant and material and to fully direct operations. To explain this more fully I may say that the operations were to some extent experi- mental and consequently it was impossible to sey beforehand just what kind or quantity ot material might be reqaired or in just what manner it might be expedient to proceed; these things only could be seen from day to day asthe work progressed, and it would certainly seem that the best way of over- coming the difficulty would have been for the contractor to have remained continually op the ground and directly in charge of his work.”
Here we have clearly stated by the In- specting Engineer the cause of the failure to finish the borings and an expression of opinion that there is reasonable doubt” that the contract can be finished. far given no Pioneer's un-
‘* no The Government have so sign, no justification for the warranted assumption that ** the borings in deep water have been waived or abandon- ed.” The larger part of the amount voted last session for the work of the borings re- mains in the hands of the Government, and it is to ba presumed that another contractor will finish the work next summer. A year has been lost by resson of Mr. Palmer's
neglect and folly. “That is all.

The Patriot is hardly fairto Mr. Bair. Mr. Bain argues from the known to the unknown, ‘* Mr. Palmer has undoubtedly misrepresented Mr. Bain; Mr. Palmer may aleo have misrepresented Senator Howian.” This is Mr. reasoning, and it is, evidently, under all the circum- stances right and justifiable. The publica- tion of Mr, Bain'’s le ter by the Patriot, might, in fair play, he expected —seeing that the Patrict published Mr. Palmer's interview with the Halifax Chronicle— and not carping criticism. The Chronicle has set the Patriot a guod example in this regard.
Bain’s
The letter of; “ Fairplay,” Carleton, is very interesting. But reference is made in it to Consequently the signature «f the writer ought to be at- tached to it. ** Fairplay " makes clear the fact that others besides Mr. Palmer and Senator Howlan have suffered loss and an- nvyance on account of the wretched em-
personal matters.

The Rev. Father Burke, whose letter we publish to-day, seems to forget (1) Thar Tax Examryer did not give currency to Mr. Palmer's injurious interview, and that, therefore, Tax Examiner is not bound, in justice, to publish Senator Howlan’s reply; (2) that if Tue Examiner were to publish Senator Howlan’s reply at second-hand, Mr. Palmer would probably, and with reason, demand the insertion of his inter- view at second-hand; (3) that the editor of Tue EXAMINER owes « service to the read- ers of Tue Examiner which does not in. clude the publication of five or six columns of second-hand matter, to the exclusion of the news of the day. Senator Howlan’s letter, fresh, wou'd have been int: resting; or, if it had been short, it might have been in- serted stale; or, if it had been about a mat- ter of great public importance, we should, in any case, have given it prominence. But asit was the mere statement of Senator Howlan’s side of an unfortunate and dis- creditable quarre!; as it desit with mere matters of account ané personal, which are not of Provincial or national importance, as it was exceedingly long, and as Senator Hlowlan never asked Tue Examiner to publish it, we are compelled to declive the request of Father Burke, much as we should like to oblige one of THe Examin- ek’s most esteemed friends. We respect and admire Father Burke's learning and ability a3 a clergyman and his excellence as a writer, but we must demur to bis gen- tle implication that the editor of Tue Ex- aMtNex does not koow his own business, and is not the best judge of that which is fitting and just m respect to both writers and readers. It will be observed that father Burke's ins s ence upon the publica- tion of Senator Howlan's letter is scarcely

~—Ata regular monthly meeting of the Board of Fire Underwriters, held yesterday, the following resolution was passed :
Resolved, That the Chief Engineer of the Fire Department of this City, under the powers conferred upon him S Provincial Statute, be requested to hold, in the case of every fire, as 4 matter of course, an investiga- tion as to its origin immediately after its oc- currence ; and further, that in the case of the recent fire of the 30th ultimo, he be re- quested to hold such preliminary investiga- tion.
--The Buffalo Evening News, as quoted by the New York Sun in a column of favor- able American comments upon annexation, says : “Independence is the method through which annexation must be brought about, and to this end every help by advice and encouragement should be given to the Canadians.” Separate our country from British power and union and then there will be little difficulty in coercing the Dom inion into submission. Such is the new policy. Canadians, however, have their senses about them in this as well as other matters,
— The New York Press made a canvass of the Democrat members of the House and invited answers to the following questions :
1. Do you favor prompt repeal of present tariff law ?
2. Do you favor radical or slight reduc- tions?
3. Do you favor an extra eeasion of Cone gress?
4. Do you favor repeal of present silver aw!
5. Do you favor a free silver bill ?
The new House will contain 216 Democratic members, so that its views can be gathered pretty well from the responses, which came as follows :

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR. Letter From Father Burke.
Sir,—Asa friend of Sanator Howlan and THe Examiner and a lover of justice | to all, 1 ask you to place before the pub- lic the Senator’s reply to the serious charges made against him by Mr. Alfred Palmer. Whether or not he has violated the com- mon canons of courtesy in pot sending you the copy of his letter is small matter to the public. With the plain tacts of the unfor- tunate case is it alone concerned. The accusations, insinuations, complaints, the letters to the press and printed interviews of Mr. Palmer have, as will every evil report, penetrated to the furthermost limits of the land. It is but fair and just that Senatur Howian’s denial and explan- ations should have alike publicity. We are not, I suppose, to expect that political sheets, ever on the alert for anything dam- aging to the character of their opponents, no matter how much the honor and reputa- tion of our province or citizens is cot- promised by such publication, will recognize their obligations to undeceive the public they have misled, or to make amends to the men they have maligned. But it is nevertheless the manifest duty of honest journalism to print the facts and arguments of both sides in cases like this and allow the pubtic to draw its own in- ferenc:s. ‘Lhis is all his friends claim for the promoter of the tunnel and with less than this they will not be saciefied. Were it necessary to iavuke extraordinary claims to an hones: hearing, the prominent part the honorable gentleman has played in every
rogressive movement undertaken in the interes sof the Island for the past 30 years, not to speek of his admirable wo. k in or iginat- ing and pushing to i's present position the most important of all our prej-cte, the tunnel scheme, should give him reauy access at all times to the press and secure tor him fair, if not indulgent, treatment at its hands. but surely sach invocation is not necessary. Su ely it bas not come to this pass, that one of our most distinguished citizens muet beg for a place in even the organs of the party he has served so long and so crediably, to anweer the unsupported charges «f a stranger and en adventurer, who seems to have captu:ed the cupital not by his ability or any evidences of respectability which he possesses, but by the absurd pretevsions peveistently made to p:ofessional eminerce and a very pro- nounced Crcckney accent! Against euch attractions it were too mach to «xpect that a plain son of the soil, no matter how eminent his services, could hope to win the favor of even a respectful hearing, and, therefore, the spectacle we have given the world in cur un- kind treatment of Senator Howlan has its explanation There is some decency kft in the country, however, and in the name of that decency I ask you, sir, to do the Senator the common justice of circulating, in as far as you are able, the answer he has made to his traduceis, backed up as it is by the collateral testimony of every respectable member «f the survey. ‘Lhis done, the public can afford to suspend judgment until the matter is sifted to the bottom by competent authority, Aod surely the press can do as much.
But let no one think for a moment that this survey squabble mast effect adversely the tunnel scheme. The horizon is not thus to ke contracted at pleasure and a dis ip!inary difficulty made the excuse to give up the prosecution of a project which all true lsland- ers who reccgnize its importance to the coua- try ought to clamor for night and day, unless declared by scientific experts unfeesible or costly beyond our right to demand.
