In connection with the West berland election, the usual charges of cor ruption and intimidation are made by the defeated Grit.

o~<pears

lr is pleasing says the St. John News, to

learn that the Chignecto Isthmus people are manifesting a lively interest in the shiy uilw: ay pl ) ct. For ourselves, we should outa te see the construction of a Cape Yormentine railway and a Bay Verte canal |

of the required dimensions.

Tue match made up between Prince Leo-

wid, and one of the many Gerisas Prine ‘sse3, does not give great satisfaction at home. Ic jis said that he would have done better had he selected one of the mauy rich daughters of his own country ; and a correspc ndent thinks that no ‘‘ surer method of immovably fixing the throne into the Eogland of the next century could | have been devise | than to marry it into our own tithed English nobility and the untitled | nobility of the colonies.”

Mr Brake boasts that he refused the honor of knighthood. In other worda, as the Mail says, ‘* he despises the honor of a | title, even when offered by his Queen; he declines the responsibilities of a title which would coramit | more of leyalty to

p yor

him to the Crown of (ireat Britain than he ts wil- ing to pledge.” Or perhaps Mr. Blake fvels that he is unworthy of such a distinct tion. Though ja fine speaker, he has per- formed no remarkable public service ; and he knows it.

Our ‘‘ Minister of Agriculture” seems determined to be worthy of the name. He has affected another purchase in Eagland | ef pure bred cattle for the improvement of his splendid herd. In addition to the polled Aberdeens he brought to this country last fall, he has purchased seven of the best specimens of the same breed to be found in Great Britain ; and paid fer them about $3,500. An English correspondent writes: ‘‘ Your Agricaitural Minister in his batch has secured, without doubt, best classed twu-year- -old bull to be seen at the present moment the whole of the British Kingdom through. This is Proud Viscount, son of the celebrated Young Viseount, now stock bull at Ballindalioch farm.” :
