Tue Darty EXAMINER. is MAY 7, 1883. Summer Vom imunication.

Tur will never 1 While the steamer p ying between Summer side and Shediae is every day loaded down to the gupwale with trei oht, and the air of the gungways and saloons stinks of the ex- crements of horses. cattle, sheep and pigs. | which are being exported, passengers tor the Island are compelled to wait at Point du Chene for four hours day after day. and the mails, often, do arrive ia Charlottetown until one or two o'clock in the morning.

This is not comfortable accommo- dation. This is not “continuous com- minication.” This, if persisted in, will spoil the pleasure of summer tourists aud destroy the summer tratlic in passevgers. This is pot fair to our men of business, who have daily correspondence with the

three or

not

Contivent. This will uever do.

The idea of passengers having to lounge about Poivt du Chene and Pictou for hours waiting for steamer and train is utterly repegoan t to the spirit of the age. Go-ahead Yankees and live Causiians won't do it; aud so they won't come here —oronly iu very much reduced numbers.

Then consider the incovvevience to our mea of business. The mails arrive alter midvight; the letters can't be touched till wext morpving; consequently they can't be answered by the mail of that day; and so the merchant has to wait until the day followiug; and is compelled to telegraph at exorbitant rates or sufer losees amouutiug to perhaps hundreds of | dollars.

i

We won't speak of the smells. The |

subject is too disagreeable. Now, we shall vot bame the Steam Navigation Company. Indeed, we are

glad that the freight offers, for it brings not only profit to the Company but pros- perity to the country; and it should certainly be carried. Nor, shall we just “yet blame the Government; for they are not, perhaps, fuliy coguizant of “the situation.” Butif better accommodation is dat soou provided great blame will be at the doors of both.

The Continental mails should reach Chariottetown net later than seven o'clock every evening—-they might be in by six or a quarter past six—and thus the traders ot the Provi inte would be enabled to correspond promptly with their tellows in the distant Provinces and the United

States, while the unspeakable delays would be avo.ded.

An additional steamer is wanted. The subsidy should be increased to enable

the Company to put on a boat specially fir the carriage of mails and passeugers and such light freight that may not emit noxious odors.

On behalf of the public we call the attention of the Company, our Repre- sentatives at Ottawa, and the Govern- meat to this important matter, in the hope that the change suggested will, as soon as possible, be effected.

—Not a few important changes have lately eccurred ia the personnel of the medical faculty of McGill College. As this Institution is probably the most im- portant School of Medicine in the Do- mivion of Canada it is only proper that allusion should be made to these changes in our columns. The Rev. Dr. Wright. who for more than thirty years lectured op Materia Medica, has resigned and the faculty have recommeuded Dr.James Stewart, of Brucefield, Oxtario, an alumnus of the University, to the Chair Dr. McCallum, Professor of Midwifery aud diseases of women and children, has | also resigned, owing to press of pro fessional oa mgsteregh 7 his chair has been divided into ove of Midwifery aud diseases of jofants an a one of gyn wecolo; gy |

or diseases of women. Dr. A. A Bri wo | who has been Dr. McCallum’s assistant for the past four or five years, will | lecture on the former subject, and Dr. |

Gardner, Professor of Jurispradence and Hygiene, on the latter. Dr. Gardner, | who is of Montreal’s ablest phy- sicieus, has given up geveral practice to devote himself entirely to this speciality. | Dr. Wi! late of C illege, ; Montreal, has been appointed to lecture | on Jurisprudence, and Dr. McDonnell on Hygiene. These results are merely the outgrowth of the action taken by the Primary students during last session. That they will be beveficial to the well- being of McGili canuot for one moment be dcubted.

A curious illustration hag arisen of one of the disadvantages of the United States system of government. A correspondence has been 11 progress between Lord Derby and Mr. Frelinghnysea with respect to the isthmus canal and the Claytou-Balwer treaty, and the former quotes a despatch from Secretary of State, John M, Clayton, dated July 4, 1850, settling the point iu dispute in the most em- phatic manner. Of the existence of this document it is quite clear that Secretary Fretinghusen was unaware. Nor is this to be wendered at. In Koglend the clerks remain during their lifetime iu office, are familiar wit! the d: stails of the past, aud can immediately post their chiefs upou any question ; and the chiefs beiag continuously in political life never Ls e track of the important dij lomatic snbjects In the States, where a chavye of clerkship takes place with a change of Government, and where the President of the Re public may drop into an insignificant post-mastershyp upon retiring from offi e, it is not to be wondered at that a Secretrry of state is found ignorant

of a despatch sent to Great Britain over thirty | '

years ego.

While a gentleman was walking down Pleasant street the other day he noticed several English sparrows pecking away at the tail of une of their mates. As he ap- proached the group they a!l flew away ex- cept one, and that unfortunate one had his ital frozen imto the thin ice He wasa ‘prisoner. The gentleman freed the little bird and let him fly away. It appeared as if the sparrows had been divging away at the ice to release their captured comrade. — Wakefild Bulletin.

Ava London West End establishment lately a burglar was canght red-handed in the strong room opening a safe contsaiving a fortune, with a key as perfect as though it had been made orig nally forthe lock. The man was con- vict-d, and his prosecutors, out of curiosity, bevged him to tell them how he got the key. ‘Nothing easier,” he replied. ‘We know who carried the key and what it was like; so | aediiandl my pails we gets into the same carriage with your manager when he’s going home by reil. One of us has a bag which he can’t open Has any gentleman got a key?
