Sir,—Il must beg space from you to reply iy some remarks appearing in the Patriot of yesterday, and having reference to a let- ter addressed you on the 9th inst., touching the condition of the reservoir, ete.

| presume the article in the Patriot is in- tended to be an answer to my questions addressed to the Water Comugissioners. But why the Commissioners should take that mode of replying is a mystery to me. It may be possible that Mr. Laird is de- sirous of making the whole Grit party and the Patriot share his short-comings as a Water Commissioner, as well as his political faults. One would have thought the latter load was sufliciently grevious, without add- ing a fresh one to it.

I asked two civil questions and expected two civil answers. Mr. Laird, for reasons best known to himself, has shirked the first question altogether, and charges the in- surance compenies with trying to evade some general understanding which, he says, was had with reference to a reduction of rates on the introduction of water.

CoRRECTRD Statistics.—According te cor- rected returns there were 878 births, 562 deaths and 312 marriages in Westmorland, N. B., last year. The birth and death re- {turns are not complete, but sufficiently so to indicate a population of 50,000 in the county. Ot the brides, 31 were under 20 years of age, and but three were reported as only sweet 16. The aggregate age of one Moncton couple was (140 years, each being reported at 70. Several jother grooms were over 50, but the next oldest \bride was 47. She married a young man of 31.

_ > | An Oprion of O'Connor.—The most noted | English writer on rowing matters says: I am inclined to believe that if Searle and O’Con- iInor meet, O'Connor will win. O’Connor {sculls equally as well as Hanlan did in his best days, with the advantage of being con- siderably stronger than Hanlan. From the contents of my private Australian letters, I shall not be at all surprised if Stansbury at an early date proves to be the second best sculler land Beach will act wisely if he does not meas- {ure blades with either Searle or Stansbury. ” ——p————— | Oyions ror CuiLpREN.—A prominent phy-

ing a barrel of onions, and being guyed about this purchase said: ‘I always have boiled onions for dinner for the benefit of my child- ren. I like onions too. They are the best medicine I know of for preventing colds. Feed onions, raw, boiled or baked, to the children three or four times a week, and they'll grow up healthy and strong. No worms, no scarletina, or diphtheria where children eat plenty of onions every day. pecan

PROBABLY INsaNe.—-On Wednesday morn- ing last Mrs. Ryan, who keeps a small fruit store on Craig Street, Montreal, went into the kitchen and was horrified to find her neice, Mary O’Brien, aged 18, preparing to swallow a heavy dose of Paris green. She said her aunt ill-treated her, and she wanted to escape further misery in this wicked world. However, when brought before the police magistrate, the accused said she only wanted to frighten her aunt, and that even if his honor, Queen Victoria and her aunt were to all get down on their knees to her she would not poison herself. The poor girl is supposed to be insane,

Dorsn’t Minp It.—An exchange vouches for the correctness of the following para- graph:—Luther James a rich and _ eccentric bachelor of Ann Arpor, Mich., died a short time ago and willed a large fortune to bis nephew, George Babcock on condition that

reason he shirks the question is that the reservoir, at present, is perfectly useless, and he wishes to conceal that iact from the public. Nevertheless, it is so, and the reservoir is nothing more than a big failure, which somebody will have to foot the bill for later on.

Without the reservoir the supply of water is very uncertain, as a trifling aceti- dent to the pumps or the pipes would shut it off completely.

The fire department is admitted to be in- efficient; and with incomplete waterworks I think it is safe to say the Underwriters will not consider the question of a revision of the tariff until the reservoir is service- able.

Mr. Laird says iny second question is an absurd one; and he tries to make us believe there is no more pressure on the pipes when the pumps are forcing the water over the heights of Mount Edward than there would be if the water was running by gravitation from the reservoir to the city. I believe it can be shown that there is much more pressure, and the danger of bursting is proportionately increased.

The Underwriters, surely, have the same right to await the result of the waterworks as the Commissioners have in delaying the taking of them off the contractors’ hands.

The “Survivor” Rises to Remark,

Sin,—The trade and shipping correspon- dent of the Patriot at Montague haschanged his tune. His melody is becoming shrill. Instead of the dismal croak of the bird of evil omen, we have now the scream of the eagle blending in symphony with the ery of the faleon.

Last week, in the columns of the Patriot, he treated his Annexationist tledglings to a feast of pikes, and wound up his entertain- ment with the song of the raptorial anar chist. A single specimen may suffice :

‘* Pree trade maintains the right of men To buy where’er he chooses,

And pay as little as he can Vor everything he uses.’

The enterprising merchants of Montague will please note the concluding lines of this stanza——they should have been underscored by the correspondent—as they comprise the Alpha and Omega of his beneficent gospel of free trade. The member from New Perth, for whose *‘ especial benefit” some twenty stanzas of wretched doggered similar to the foregoing, have been repro- duced while exceedingly grateful to the Montague scribe of the dolorous pen for the kind interest that prompted him to the trouble of selecting and preparing this for midable dish of **savory’ Salmagundian free trade literature, feelspevertheless, that he can employ his leisure to better purpose in seanning the pages of the Bard of Hope especially, as he belicves the ,** rhymes” referred to and no doubt rudely meant as a corrective (/) contain more deadly poison than all the **monopolist literature” he has ever imbibed.

MeNeally, will be} tried at Alfred at the May term of the, Supreme Court.
