Speci- ic direction is and remains impossible ja such a case. You will have (as here- tofore) to cheose by what of light, ef manfulness, aod faithfulness is in your own mind the better and the good trom out of the beundless imbroglio of the trivial, the bad and base (which mea of less light are ongerly fellewing on all hands of you); and with your whole soul to app! priate these, and elaborate them as you have faculty and opportunit, You then and now.

Industrial Notes.

The Canada Screw Company of Dan- das, the works of which have been closed for several years is making active preparations to recommence,

The prospectus of the Merchants’ Manufacturing Co. of Montreal bas been issued. It'is proposed toe @ ta mill of 25,000 apindles early in the spring to manufacture bleached cotton fabrics.

The new glove and mitten factory at Montreal, is to be conducted by a joint stuck company, with a capital of $25,- A0d, Several enterprising Freneh~ Canadians have the :cheme in hand, and expect te commence e@perations by the tirs: of May.

We learn that the New Brunswick Cetion Mi! of Messrs W. Parks & Son at St. John, has provided itself with additional! steam power to overtake its growing business. The Thomson & Williams Company of Stratford has built ferthat milla Brown variable cut-off enine of a 125 horse power, which has been put in positivo.

Sir,—In my last letter the rates on hay) ex. Railway was discussed. In this your | readers will have something on fish. The P. KE. I. Railway during the past season or | two carried mackerel at rates varying from 79 to 63 cents per barrel from all | points on the railway to Boston. of mine paid 54 cents per barrel for freight on mackerel from Tignish to Charlottetown. Now, nearly everywhere else the rate way side traffic bears some proportion the through rates. Our Railway to be the exception. Asa result the bulk of our catch of mackere! goes to market by another and cheaper route. The Island ships large quantities of cod but a comparatively small portion ef which is shipped over the “Government Railway, for the reason that the tariff is too high. 1 have paid as much as 9 cents per box on smoked herring from St John to Charlotte: town, and I have had them carried as low as Scents. There is something wrong ina tariff that allows so much of a difference. Often vessels are frozen out of this port. A sound pohey would dictate that every facility should be afforded shippers both in rates and despatch; instead of which the most that can be enforced is colleeted, and al- theugh trains can be hired for excursion parties, nothing like that, you know, for the unfortunate shipper, but he must walt and take his chance of weather and be supremely thankful if he can get three or four cara a day forwarded.

I forgot to mention a circumstance In my last leiter. In the winter of 1880, the Grand Trunk and Intereolonial offered to carry augar from either St. John or Port land to Montreal, far 15 or 18 cents per 100 ibs, The distanee is, I think, about 600 miles. The P. E. lL. Railway charges 15 cents per 100 lbs., to carry hay in bales from Charlottetown to Souris, say 55 miles,

Meeting at Cape Traverse.

a hadi To the Edlitor of tha Examiner.

Agreeable to public notice a large and influential meeting of the inhabitants of

held in Cape Traverse School-house, on

| Saturday, the 26th inst., for the purpose of liscussing the winter means of communi- |

cation between this Island and the main- land, Finlay McFayden, Esq., being ap- pointed te the chair, and the undersigned Secretary.

Messrs. A. Strong, Benj. Webster, J. H.

Howatt, D. S. Wright, J. W. Hughes, |

Esquires, and others, addressed the niset- ing. The speakers seemed to be fully alive to the cause ;

to by the movers and seconders, all of whieh passed amidst a goed, lively aud un animous feeling of the people.

The first resolution was introduced by J.

W. Hughes, Esq., and put before the meet-

ing in a few well chosen words. Most of the speakers referred to the fact of the veteran captains of the ice boats eing all away at the time of the meeting, and the cheering fact of some six boats leaving our shores on the morning of this day with mails and some eighteen passen gers. Such was strongly set forth asa key to the whole question, and ail agreeing that at the Capes alone could such an event oc- cur, this, or any other day in midwinter.

Moved by J. W. Hughes, Esq., seconded |

by A. Strang, Esq.,

Whereas, We have had several years ead ex- perience in attempting to maintain winter communication via the Geergetown- Pictou route—and in no other year has the attempt been so fruitless as the present, ner at no other time was the attempt fraught with such painful resnits, as was the steamers last in- cautious and protracted veyage of nearly one mouth, in coming from Pietou to the Island, abandened asshe was by most of her living freight, whose escape te land must ever be remembered;

And Whereas, Any further attempt to run the ‘‘ Northern Light’ via Georgetown and Pictou, in midwinter will be at the risk of life and property, and great eost, and will be considered by competent judges an unwarrant- able undertaking en the part of the powers that be.

And Whereas, The erossing via the Capes has been retarded more this winter, than fer- merly, from deep lolly, the result of coutinued snow storms formed in the epen water, which would not impede a suitable steamers erossing with becoming and suitable regularity.

Therefore Resolved, That via the Capes only

ean winter communication be obtained as at

| present, and with afall and manifest know-

ledge of this fact we call upon our Kepreserta- tives, Senators and Commoners, te demand the falfilment of our Union terms, in this most important matter, by having the two short branches of Kailway required to connect our P. EB. L. Railway with the Intereolouial Rail- way, as surveyed in 1875, completed next sum- mer, together with a suitable steamer at the Capes to take her turn in open water and lolly and thus secure for this Province permanent communication during the wi ter season.

Passed unanimously.

Moved by J. H. Howatt, Esq., seconded by Nelson Clarke, Esq. ,—

Whereas, It is am indisputable fact that

| Winter Communication can only be main-

tained between Capes Traverse and Tormen- tine, and that permanent winter cressing is really required for our Provincial welfars, the same being agreed for by the terms of Union ; and

Whereas, Hon. James Yeo, M. P. (onr working representative), recently tendered the Government his suppers with another,

providing the Gc vernment would at once |

begin and carry eut the required improve- ments for permanent winter crossing via the Capes, which propesition has been severely criticised by two of our Island newepapers ; and

Whereas, \WWe, the Hon. James Yeo’s con- stituents, tully endorse and approve of Mr. Yeo's proposition, and deeply regret that we have in our midst editors who are always ready to throw ridicule on any honorable effort whereby this Provinee may be im- mediately benefitted, or made to receive our just rights ;

Thereyore Reaclead, That we are fully de- termined to enlist the support of sufficient of the electorate of this eountry, who are inter- ested iu justice being done usin so urgent a matter, to carry out Mr. Yeos proposition im ita entirety should we be longer denied jus- tice, and that we view with suspicion tke coolness of our representatives generally dur- ing the past two years, as weil as the editor who said ‘‘ We would have the branches and steamer in due time.” We proclaim that now isthe time. The travelling and commercial public demand it, and our terms of Union guarantees it.

Passed unanimously.

Moved by D. J. Lowther, Esq , seconde. by John Driseo!l, Esq.—

Whereas, Winter traffic to and from the mainland is every year rapidly increasing, and is new and must be maintained by this route in the future, as the only way im which we can either receive or send mail or other matter, and with the present unaided means of cross-

| ing with small boats only, and havirg to con-

tend with blockaded roads as apprvaches on either side the Straits during the winter months, practical communication is greatly retarded ;

And, Whereas, No other Province in the De- minion suffer as we do in the matter of winter trade and commeree, and that we believe a practical remedy ean be readily applied.

Therefore, Resolved, That steps be taken at once to lay this our painful grievance before

A public exhibition was recently given | by the Harmonic Mannerchor of Reading, Pa., st the sonual masked ball and carni- | val. Before the dancing began, a repre- | senta:ion of the tortures of hell was given | on the stage Springing from a grotto,a number of Ceamens in black and red seized | econdemne< -inners and thrust them into a

it on the s‘age, from which flames, smoke and the growns of the damned ascended. To the discredit of the assemblage, this feature of the carnival provoked long

laughter anc applause.

His Excellency, the Governor General in Council, with a view to apprize His Excel- lency of the great barrier to progress in exis- tence in this fair Province, point out the remedy and etherwise make known our wants, with an earnest view to mitigate our hard lot. —VPassed unanimously.

Moved by D. 8. Wright Esq., and sec- onded by Isaac Wright, Esq.,

Whereas, A public meeting of the people ef of Summerside was held in that town on the 12th day of March, 1877, for the pur. pose of protesting ayainst the Capes Route, and that a memorial was sent by the people ef Summerside to the Minister of Public Works

for | quate means of winter freight business, &e., to | whilet a remedy was near by if only im- seems | proved.

when the followin¥ resolu- | tions were severally introduced and speken |

of that day, to the great disadvantage of this country and this route ; And Whereas, At that time the theory of |

MISCELLANEOOUS.

The Whitehall Review says that Sidi

ves responsible for | Winter crossing was unknown to any save Muley Hassan, the Sultan ef Morocco, has

those thon engaged in it, hence the resol\.tions | sent a touching exemple of radical retrech-

forwarded from Summerside at that time |

| emanated more from tke tact of not kncwing | half of his wive

then what is now fully proven relating to

; | winter communication ;

Therefore Resolied, Vhat we deeply regret | congregation on Sunday night

such Summerside memorial was ever sent to

Ottawa, as it was to the great injury of this route, owing to its not being a fare sceount of matters im convection with winter cemmun- ication, — Passed unanimously.

Mr. Wright introduced his resolution

A friend | with a few well-timed remarks, showing

bow the business and prosperity of this Province is marred from the present inade-

Moved by Benj. Webster, Haq, and seconded by Alexander MeFayden, Esq. Whereas, This question is so urgent and of |

and other fish, | such genoral moment, that we deem it neces-| which it has appealed to

| sary te have the proceedings of this meeting | | published in all our Island papers.

Therefore, Resolved, That Messrs. J. W. | Hughes and A. Strang, Esara., be choven for that purpose, and copies of report be fur- warded to our representatives, with a view that this route may be at once iinproved— Passed.

Mr. Webster and othera spoke to the) above resolution, and condemned in strong terms any farther trials of the steamer | ‘* Northern Light,” at the Eastward, during midwinter, as she had now some feur o1 ‘five years of fruitless fighting on that} route, and failing each season.

A. Strang, Exq., being called to the} chair, when a vote of thanks was passed and tendered te the Chairman, the meeting dispersed, full of glee from the | thonghts of soou having winter communi: | cation, and in this way be somewhat on & | level with the other Provinees.

Every lady of station in Austria knows how tocook. They do not learn the art at regular cooking elubs or at home, but | they go tothe louse of a prince or a rich banker where there is a famous cook, and learn from him.

When a banquet ia | | te be given he notifies his pupils, and they | come to watch the process, without neces sarily knowing the mistrees of the house. At this time it would be a great breach of |

Lowell, Mass., may be called ‘the ‘‘ tele- phone city’’ for it is eonnected by telephone with over one hundred cities and towns in the States of Massachusetts, New Haimp- shire, and Rhode Island. The longest cir- cuit is from Springfield, Mass., by way of Worcester, Fitchburg, Lowell, Lawrence, to Exeter, N. H., over one hundred and fifty miles, whieh is worked successfully. fhe Lowell District Telephone Company owns and operates $2,500 telephones, and pays the Ameriean Bell Company a month- ly royalty of ever $1,200. The company eontrols over 1,500 miles of wire, and employs in all divisions about twenty-five ladies and seventy five men and boys.

As we expected, the antherities of the Roman Church have expressed their disap- proval of the fraternising of the Land Leaguer with the leaders of ocialism on the continent. The latter have been evidently only consulting their own interes’s and are always glad te seize any opportunity of abusing those in power against whom, simply because they are in power, they maintain sucha spite. Our! wonder is that common sense would not have kept Mr. Parnell and his friends aloof from such company, as they might have foreseen that any benefit which they might derive from their sympathy would be more than counter- balaneed by the offence whieh such an alliance would give te their real friends. It is true that the Land League leaders de not all pro. fess obedience to the church of the majerity in Ireland, but one would think that the in- terests of tha latter ought to be in all things | their first thought, whatever might be their | private views.— Mon‘real Gazelte. |

The Chicago Inter Ocean saya that a test was lately made at the Belleville Water- Works of ‘‘ atomized petroleum,” a newly- invented fuel for furnaces, with very satisfaetory results. The engines with a capacity of 400 horse power were run with half the furnaces usually employed, and at one-fourth the cost. Alderman Mackey, of Jersey City, the inventor of the prepara- tion, says it can be employed at small cost. At ihe trial in question it is alleged that the large engine with $1.08 worth of petroleum did work which would have re- quired 2,000 lbs of coal worth $5. The report seems too good to be true, but surely acience has something in store to break down ceal monepelies.

An interesting discovery has recently been mace near the ruins ef ancient Tyre. On am escarpment of rock about 800 feet

| are enormous blocks of hard breccia, about

20 feet by 16 in sise, and 10 feet above the surface of the soil. This breccia consists mainly of myriads of worked flints, with which are intermixed fragments of teeth and boner. Dr Lartet believes they once

formed part of a cavern of great antiquity.
