CORRESPONDENCE,
We do not hoid ourselves responsibie for the opinions or statements of our correspondents,
The Pork Industry. HOW IT BENEFITS THE ISLAND UNDER THE ’ NATIONAL POLICY.
To the Editor of the Examiner.
| §Stm,—Sugar refineries, cotton factories, etc., have, and are still, spending their ammunition in endeavoring to prove toa stubborn race of people the advantages that are,and will be, received from a Protection Policy. While these large industries have been thundering away, the Pig, always a ‘bashful animal, has remained in the back- ground, people considering, no doubt, that he was not worthy of the honor of forming one link in the grand chain of industries which ask for protection in order that they may grow and become strong, and s0 give employment to the young meneof our coun- try, as well as providing the Canadian people with everything which they may require, nianufactured by Canadian hands, grown and cultivated in Canadian lands.
Printe Edward Island has been for this last number of years engaged largely in raising pork, and it has not been the least profitable portion of the farm products. |The name which our pork has gained for ‘itself throughout the length and breadth of our Dominion is we)l known, and any_ intelligent man who has at all interested hiwself on this question must surely be aware of the fact that the N. P. is the ‘soul cause for the inquiries which have | , been made by Montreal, Quebec, and other: Upper Province Cities, and we do wonder, | particularly et farmers, who will ask for | Free Trade and who will further express’ |themselves with a great deal of feeling, as I have often heard them. ‘*‘ What a market iwe would have for our pork if we only had ‘Free Trade with the United States.” | Take away the present protection on it and | hold that it would pay the farmers much , better were they never to see the much-loved animal on their farms. Nine out of every ten will tel) you that even at the pices whi-h ‘they are receiving at present, that it does ‘not pay to feed. Then, I would ask, if it does not pay now, is it reasonable to sup- pose that it would pay, were they to ‘receive, on an average, two cents per | pound less for their pork than the present ‘protective tariff allows them! A few \figures would not be out of place here. The duty on American pors, in barrels, is
; '
Taind, ° : it gives us the Upper Provinces for a market, as wellas keeping the pork raised there in their own markets, and so further benefiting it by making Halifax and St. John betier and brisker ports to ship to thanin former years they ever were. There is no one but what will admit that this, of itself, is an important point, for without |good markets to ship to, theré is very little use of raising a surplus of pork or anything else. Again, Prince Edward Isiand ships to other parts of Canada and other foreign ports, now, about fifteen thousand barrels, and about one million pounds of hams, lard and bacon. These figures, multiplied at $2.25 per barrel, and two cents per pound for ham, lard and bacon, show a handsome return to Prince Ed- ward Island, over and above what they would or could possibly receive without the present protection, of fifty-three thousand seven hundred and fifty dollars. A point then might be touched upon which is often ‘used by the Opposition, viz: They say, that this will have the effect of filling the pockets of the traders, and the farmers wil] receive no benefit from it, I always con- sidered this a weak argumeut, and issuing from small minds, for in this, as well as in everything else, it will be regulated by com- petitien, and the more it is fostered by a Government, the keener will that be, and as a natural consequence the farmers will receive larger prices.
There yet remains much to be said on this subject, and possibly I will take it up again.
Yours, ete., A. L.

Says the Toronto Mail :—‘‘ The loyal ad- herence of Liberal-Conservatives to their chief and of moderate men of all shades to a Gov- ernment which bas risked everything to fulfil its pledges, demands also that organization should be instant, perfect, and energetic. Sir Jobn Macdonald was able to command the confidence of the country when he had but promises to make and a policy to propeund. He will not be less successful in commanding even a fuller measure of confidence now that the promises have been fulfilled and the policy is in successful operation.
‘* As the gale moderated”—-says a writer ip the June C:ntury, describing in a delightful vein the veyage in a sailing ship ‘Around Cape Horn”—‘‘ we spread all sail, and flew at the rate of fifteen miles an hour for a steady twenty-four hours, reeling off three hundred and sixty miles from dawn to dawn. ‘ ‘lhe girls at home have got hold of the tow-rope this time, and no mistake,’ observed the boss hitching up his main backstays, as he called his suspenders.”
Tue National Policy is daily winning over to its support large numbers of adherents, among them meu of high intelligence, wide observation, and large business capacity. This Policy, inaugurated by Sir John A. Mac:lon- ald and his colleagues, has already lifted Canada out of the slough of despond, into which she had fallen while under the unhappy and miserable rule of Mackenzie, Cartwright & Co
Tue value of goods entered for consump- tion in the Dominion for the month of March is $7,722,119 and the duty collected $1,551,- 705.

Ladies’ Land League.
The Charlottetown Branch of the Ladies’ Land League held their regular meeting on Tuesday, May 23rd, in Full’s Hall. The President, Mrs. E. W. Smith, oceupied the chair. There was a good attendance, and several new members were added to the roll.
Mrs. M. A. Burke gave an account of the policy of George 111. towards his Amer- ican colonies, and showed that his law of force was a gigantic failure. She clearly pointed out how history repeats itself. As Dublin Castle plays a very important part in Irish affairs, the description which Mrs. Burke gave of it was very interesting, and was well received by the audience. A very significant feature is a statue of which surmounts one of the gates, with its face to the Castle, and its back to the Nation. When the statue was first placed there it held scales in its hands, but these have since disap- peared.
Miss Mary Kickham, of Souris, read an article from the /ilot, on the ** Assassina Escape.” Tt showed that Ireland had done her duty with true nobility of soul, when she denounced, without any hesitation, the assassination, which is the bitterest blow that bas been struck at IJreland’s hopes.
, The world is judging between the countries,
and Ireland need not fear the verdict.
. The last week has made more international
opinion in her favor than the agitations of
_ the last twenty years.
Mrs. Smith, who is about leaving the
| Island, resigned her position as President,
and Mrs. M. A. Burke was appointed in her place.
A vote of thanks was tendered to Mrs. Smith, to which she feelingly replied.
It was decided that our next meeting be held ou June 20th, after which the meeting adjourned,
Mary F, Cox, Secretary.

The Marketa.
OATS, The most recent advices received from
Great Britain report the oat market dull,
and having a downward tendency. Nine- teen sliillings and six pence per quarter, of 304 Ibs., is the highest offered for cargoes delivered in France, and nineteen shillin for cargoes delivered in Great Britain. € oat market in the Provinces remains the same as last reported ; but it is expected that the demand will not continue, as a num- ber of small vessels are proceeding to Hali- fax and other Nova Scotia ports,
other cities of the United States, has been very active, and prices have, in’ con- sequence, began to rise. Last week in Boston’ the quotations for potatoes rap from 75 to 90 cents per bushel, but this week they have advanced to $1.00, and a good demand is reported at that price. EGGS.
The market in Boston for eggs is much the sawe as last reported. It is steady, aud Canadian steck is qnoted at 19 cents.
FLOUR,
The Montreal Gazette in its report of the 22nd inst., states that, “‘the flour market at that date gave fresh evidence of weak- ness. Superior was selling at $6 30 per barrel, and Spring Extra at $6.024.” e following are the quotations :—

In replying tothe paragraph referring to the towns of Cartwright, Crystal City and Stephen, copied into our columns from the St. John Sun, Messrs. Manville & Beech write to the St Jobn News aa follows: ‘We are used to such slanders as these. In Torouto this game was tricd last winter, which ended in complete disvomfiture of our enemies. Every fact we have stated in the press or otherwise respecting these towns we ‘are prepared to substantiate. Orystal City is uot a paper town. It appears in all Gov- ernment maps. It has a population already of two hundred. Cartwright has several buildings. All statements we made res ing Stephen are correct. The Pembina - tain branch of the Canada Pacitic Railway is graded through Stephen. There is a Regis- try Office at Crystal City. The name of the tegistrar is John Knox. Mr. Knox is also the Bezistrar for Cartwright, which is in the same county as Crystal City, namely Rock Lake, the two places being about seventeen miles apart.”
From Hamisroy.—A gentleman writes: ‘I have suffered ‘or over four years with night losses and gencral weak oess, caused by abuse. I had tried ali the ajvertised medicines, and a number of eminent doctors, aud found no relief or benefit. Ihave used twelve boxes of Mack’s Magsetic Medicine, and am enti-ely restored.
