The ‘‘ Daily Examiner.”

‘An abstract and brief time.” —Shakespeare.

T'wo AND A HALF YEARS have passed away since the (irst number was issued ; and still the Day Examiner persists in making its daily round of the city and its daily tour of the Province, with its daily ‘‘ abstract and brief chronicle of the time.” It has hung on to life so long, and through so many dif- ficulties that, somehow, people are begin- ning to have increased confidence in it and. of late, the volume of its business transactions has increased fully a half. If this increase continues (and we hope it may) we shall soon be enabled to print a larger paper at a smaller cost. In fact, we now oilfer to all our readers who advance payment olst day of December nect, the Dairy EXAMINER throughout the coming yeur, for four dollars. The offer is open to those only who pay in advance, within the time named, for the entire year. Accounts will forthwith be made out at the old price for the paper for twelve months from date—instead of for six months as heretofore and those who take advantage of the offer will have the reduction made at the time of payment. There are a few —and but a few—subscribers who have fallen into arrears. If these do not pay up on or before Friday next we shall be compels led to stop the paper, and inwoke the aid of the Stipendiary Magistrate and his gentle- manly subordinates.

A Roformatory.

Now that we have—thanks to Bishop Melntyre--a Hospital in Charlottetown, might it not be well to see if we cannot also have a Reformatory? There cannot be a doubt that our well-filled jails, the nightly thefts, and the general distrust of bad characters that is abroad, is due to the fact that bad boys have been permitted to grow up unreformed in jail and on the strects. If these boys had been sent toa Reformatory to be trained and taught, nine out of every ten would have become good citizens. But to the point. In a few days the old Asylain for insane persons will be vacated, and Mr. Waller, the Keeper of the Asylum, will be without a situation. Would it not be well to secure the building, or part of it, for a reformatory, and (if possible) Mr. Waller for the reformer. The building is just about the right distance from town, and it strikes us that Mr. Wailer is just the man required. A reformatory, well and

sonowically conducted, would be almost, if not quite, self-sustaining. And whether it would or not, it would pay Charlottetown to have a reformatory. The question ‘‘shall we have a reformatory?’ is one well worthy the attention of His Worship the Mayor, His Honor the Stipendiary Magis- trate and other leading and public spirited citizens.

-<m+ - ‘The Insane Asylum.

A GenriemMan who takes great interest in the Asylum informs us that he visitec the institution on Thanksgiving Day, and that he never sawitin a better state than it was then. Another gentleman, who visited it yesterday, says that the para- resterday’s Examiner—to the he Asylum was never cleaner, tilated, or better kept than it

Many persons like to know pretty defi- nitely how money they are asked to give to a eharitable institution is to be applied and expended. Our attention has been called to the fact that no texplanation has beeu made with reference to the subscrip- tions about to be asked for the Charlotte- town Hospital. It has not been stated whether the money is to be paid te the at-

tending physicians, or whether it is to be’ & Go, used to sustain the institution—-or both 2!

The Princess Louise.

The following is a Globe special cable-

°

cram from London, dated Nov. 18 :— ‘‘The World says there is reason to be- lieve that the return of the Princess Louise to England is not entirely a matter of pleasure, but is attributable in a large ex- tent to the interest she takes in the launch- ing of .a company for the development of

colonization lands in Manitoba and the

territory abutting on Lake Winnipeg. As- sociations have already been formed for

the purpose under the title of the Lake Winnipeg Land and Colonization Associa- Lord Walter Campbell is one of the directors of this cempany. ‘The prospectus vives a few detials of the enterprise. The price at which Manitoba-grown wheat is to be landed in Liverpool is thirty-five shil- lings per quarter.”

A subsequent despatch says the visit of

Tho “Times” and the North West.

In a letter from Winnipeg to the London Tames, an account is is given of the Red River Valley, of which nearly a third lies within the confines of the Dominion and which ‘is destined to be one of the great wheat producing regions of America.” The capabilities of this regiou are characterized asimmense. In extent it is 300 miles long and may be set “down as 100 miles in width. As to the statement, however, that it could furnish breadstuffs which Great 3ritain requires to import, we are remind- ed that the soil, altheugh deep and good, ‘“eannot goon yielding wheat idefinitely without the return of the more important elements of fertility.” Of this fact, of course, every agriculturist is avare, and to expect it, would be to look for impossibili- ties.

CANADIAN BANKING

It is currently reported at Ottawa in Min- isterial circles that the Federal Government contemplates remodelling the present Bank ing Act during the approaching session of Parliament, and that it was with a view to guch acontingency that Sir S. L. Tilley re- cently visited Washington. The charters for the existing Banks do not expire till July Ist, 18S!. There are, however, two exceptions, one of which is the Bank of P. E. Island, the charter for which does not expire till 1850. The direction the proposed chahges in the law will take is not known at present.—Ottawa Dispatch,

THE POTATO CROP IN MAINE,

A correspondent writes : ‘‘The potato, and, in fact, all crops here, were so abundant this season, that the supply for sale seems to be almost inexhaustible. Two years ago the much dreaded ‘potato bug’ mide his appear- ance in this State, and this year he gave promise of being the father of a large family. The Boston Potato trade of late has been very lively. Six weeks ago the price of potatoes was 85 cts. por barrel, but as the demand ex- ceeded the supply, the price advanced to $1 per barrel, and consequently, during the last fortnight, thousands of barrels have been shipped for the Boston market.”

FREIGHT ON THE INTERCOLONIAL.

Freight movements over the Intercolonial have lately been particularly brisk: The transfer of English goods from the steamers at this port, have contributed considerably to this trailic. At Moncton station trains are despatched every hour inthe day, and while the movement of trains is not a fair indication of the business done, the freight received and forwarded for the past two months has been much above that of previous years.

cise of the two girls who leit their home in Uttawa the other day to ‘‘seek their fortunes in Montreal,” and of the two boys who left London, Ont.,a few days ago ‘‘to become pirates.” After stealing $150, the boys, aged about 12 years, set out to ‘‘buy a ship,” and

purchased nine revolvers, with which the ‘crew were, we presume, to be armed. The

boys only did what boys were said to have done in the pernicious novels they were accus- tome to read, and which fired their young iieas with madcap stories of the sea. In the first instanee two innocent girls were on the verge of ruin; and we are inclined to believe that in this case as wellas that of the boys, peraicious novels were at the bottom of the danger. --Montreal Star.
