—Says the St. Paul Pioneer Press — “The just criticism which the public school system has heretofore had most

reason to dre d is the charge of a pre- |

podderance of iostruction in branches that are either purely ornamental, and as such out of place ip a general educa- tion, or else suited only to those who contemplate evtrance to one of the so-called learned professious—a future which does not lie before a vast number of those who attend the schools of the State Intelligent people everywhere have long perceived thut the great need ot the young of such a country, as this iv more abuadavt facilities for obtaiving the iustructiou given in iadustrial schools and igstitutes of techuology.”’

—Here is a quotation tor the benefit of young men i—

‘We will suppose my readers to be old enough to accept a formal invitation tu an evening party. Let me draw your atteu- tioa to the il!-mannered and gauche practice into which the shy avd ignorant young mea are apt to fell on such decasions. They herd together like a fick of geese or turkevs at the drawiag-room door, leaving all the women to themselves. ~Now as the latter cannot get up and_introduce them- selves ivto yoar circle. it is incumbent on you to disperse yourselves about the room and talk to them, being ready to assist your hostess in any arrangement of her’s for the general entertainment, or to lead to the pianoforte, or fetch the maueic fer any whe may play or sing. Do not stand idly ow the hearth-rug making believe to button your gloves fifty times over when they are buttoned already If you could ouly see how feeble and silly it looks, pee would learn to manage your hands etter, and appear more self-possessed.'’— Btiquette for our brothers, ’

Irving and Mutrart, enquiring how much per trip, in addiion to their regular pay of thirty-five dollars for two boat trips, they would require to supply | w first-cluss row boat. properly equipped for water service? The Inspector says that as he has po wriiteo reply from the Coutractors he refers us to themseives for the answer. <As this is a mutter io which the public is interested, it is now ia order for the coatractors to state what their terms were. It »ppears there have also, beeu some negotiations for houses ou exch side, in which the boats would be sheltered, and the crews could live during the crossing seasou. but that the coulractors cousidere? it was too late te go ou with them this year.

Reciprocity.

Now that commercial mén in the United States are awake to the edvan- tages of Reciptocity with Canada aud are movifig in that. directicn, the Guits are trying to make electors believe that the Liberal-Conservative Party aud the Admiuistration of “Sir Joho A. Me- Donald are oppossed to Reciprocity. ~ No statement could be more untrue. The people aud Governmeut of Canada have always been dixposed to revew friendly reciprocal trade relations with the United States. There is an express provision ia the Caugdiau Tariff Act which is now in force, that reciprocity in’ certain articles shall follow at ouce upon the action of the United States Congress, The sixth section of the Tariff Act ig as fellows ;—

“6, Any and all of the following articles, that isto say, animals of all kinds, green fruit, hay, straw, bran, seeds of all kinds, vegetables including potatoes and other roo’s), plants, trees and shrubs, coal and eoke, ealt, hops, wheat, peas, and beans, barley, rye, oats, Indien corn, buckwheat, and all other grain, flour of wheat and flour of rye, lndian meal and oat meal, and flour or meal of any other grain. butter, cheese, fish (salted or smoked), and lumber may be imported into Canada free of daty, or at a less rate of duty than is provided by “his Act, upon proclamation of the Gover:

for testimony as to the correctoess of the

‘humbug, the ballet. Reterring to lcharges of frand in the Municipal | elections the Globe says: * Stuffing is not only possible, bat. if the will to © stuff’ exists,easy. The Act, it is true, ‘requires- the deputy returoing-officers at ithe close of the poll, in the pre- | seuce of the serutineers, to eouuvt the votes, Annouce the numbers, aud make the ballots into seperate packages, seal- ‘ng them with his own seal; and to deliver the packages and ballot boxes to the Clerk of the Municipality ‘ forth- j with,” Suppose all this is done; even then there is wo assurance of absence of .fraud. It has been known at a Toronto election for all these things to be done, and then on a re- couut it has been found that the number of ballots in a certain box did not tally } with the Deputy’s statement. It has also tbeen found that, wher the official count

bore a different set of tignres from those declared by him at the close of the

poll.” Wanted—A Question!

The pesple of Toronto lately voted 'upon “the Citizens’ Free Library ques- ‘tion ;” atid the result was that 5,400 votes out of £200 were in favor of ihe i library. It isto be regretted that no | question of this kind occupies the atten- tion of the citizens of Charlottetown. We are to have an election in a week cr two, aud so far nothing whatever has been proposed upou which an expression of public opinion is required. It is to be a mere personal scramble for the coveted position; and as a matter of course our best men are not im the field. The want of a question is thé more re- markable from the fact that we yet lack nearly every public requirement to be fouiud in modern towns.

+ Trade in Pridce Hdward Island.

(Monetary , Times.)

The business of the past fall has been moresatistactory than atone time seemed probable, owing to the open weather per- mitting shipment of field products to be made. The oat, crop, though reperted short ju Prince .County,:is very fair in Queen's and King’s, andthe price obtained far them has been encouraging. British demand «as slight, but the white oats went early to the West Indies and Bermuda at good prices. The activity of lumber busi- ness has given good demand for oats and horses in New Brunswick. And the favor- able feature has been the good market for potatoes in the United States. A steamer visited Georgetown “Christmas week for 16,000 bushels to take to Boston, and there are & good many still hel’, unsold. Ship- ments of cannetl lobsters, fish and meat were considerable and those of starch worthy of mention. -'There is yet a goud deal of pork in the Province, as. well as sume beef. ne

Farmers are if good credit-and farming lends Keep ‘up to good “prices, thongh the same ‘cannot be said of cities’ and towns. The lack of farm labor is a great drawback here; there issuchatrazeamongst the young men to go to~the West ‘of Canada or the States, that it: is a great etrain at harvest times to get the werk done. Foreign merchants are much more‘cautious as to whom they sell now-a-days, and the result is seen in fewer failures and lightér stocks of merchandise on the Island. The specu- lative disposition in the c.mmunity has re- ceived a gheck in the failure of the Bank of. .P, E. It is probable that business during the winter will be dull, as it usually is, but an active trade may be reasonably expected in the spring.

' The Gospel of Relaxation.

(Monetary Times.)

Mr. Herbert Spencer has been telling the Amerieang that they need a gospel of relaxation preached to them, since their husiness eagerness ani unrest show too close an obedience to the gospel of work. It is provably true that the business men of the United States, more than of any other country, need. to learn the meaning and the value of rest and recreation. They work long hours ; they impose on their eye- sight, their stomashs and their brains ; they suffer mere from indjygestion and from nervous ailments than any other nation on the globe. They do a vast amount of business, making enormous drafts apon their physical and mental energies, so that when they have ‘‘ made their pile” many among them are hopeless dyspeptics at forty or sufferers from insomnia or incipient paralysis at thirty-live. Is the game worth the candle, when pursued at the cost of comfort, culture and health ? Nothing in the business world of the old conntries strikes a Canadian or American visitor so much as the attention which is there paid to matters of exercise and recre- ation. The Glasgow manufacturer or the Liverpool merchant, however diligently he may pursue his business avocations from ten till four, is equally rigid in the observ. ance of his hours of relaxation. His horse, his yacht, his bowling-green, or his billiacd-

gtain, butter, coal lumber, or any other article that wa seli in their markets, the |

Competitive Examination.

The London Daily Telegraph says :—| Family life, school tales, the records of | private tutors, and now Indian official con- fossions show that many able young fellows lose bodily and mental health under the terribie pressure to which they are exposed. It is only a few months ago that a high-|

victory the mind gave way. In India, out of one hundred men rcently appointed, twelve have broken down in bodily health and eight have gone mad. This is a ter- tible proportion if we consider that these were picked men in their first youth, enjoy- ing permanent situations, with good pros-

mental and physical vigor. The fact is that they were athletes who run too far before they juwp; in England they had exhausted nerve and brain ; they had no elasticity or reserve, and, confront with the tasks and trials of real life, they broke down. Facing such tests on boys of nine- teen is like placing heavy weights in long- distance races on two-vear-old colts. The result in both cases is premature decay. Every year the evil grows worse, because the competition tends to become more severe.

The Milwaukee Holocaust.

Exchanges which arrived by last evening mail bring further intelligence of the ter rible fire in Mrlwaukee. In less than half an hour after the fire was discovered, the whole building, long designated as a death- trap. was in flames. Scenes of the utmost terror prevailed. The inmates jumped by dozsns from the upper stories to the stone sidewalks which vere filled with lifeless i bodies. The shrieks of the unfortunates filled the air. People below were unable to render any aid. Quite a number of ter- rified guests and hotel employes appeared at the windows and, seeing the distance to the ground, fell back in the flames, The employes of the hotel, which accommodated eight hundred guests, numbered eighty-six, and have mostly lodged in the sixt'r story. Their exit by way of the roof was cut off by tire and the fire ladders were not availabdle for some reason. A wery few were saved jumping on canvas. .

A later account says :—Of the 60 young girls, who @were waiters, only eleven were heard from alive. It is feared that the estimate of 50 lives lost formed the morning of the fire, is far too low, and that fully double that number were burned or smuthered to death in the blazing pile. The police think the fire was of an incen diary origin, but, so far, nothing has been discovered to substantiate the theory. | The latest account says:—The fallen out | side walls nearly all tumbled over par- tition wells, form such an immense heap of ruins that it will be impossible, for several days, to begin the search, but nearly « hun- dred is generally aecepted as the numbey of lives Jost.

A Sharper Caught.

AFTER SEVERAL YEARS’ OF PILFERING,

The Halifax /7erald says upon information received hy the pelice authorities here, detective Power arrested on Monday night a man named Andrew Kelly in the Prussian House, on Upper Water Srreet. It appears that he is a sneak thief, and bas been going the rounds stealing for some years. At P. E Islind, tive years ago, he was arrested ou a charg? of attemptingt> rob one of the bauks, and was sentenced to two years imprisonment. After serving out his term he went to New Glasgow, bruke into a store at Vele Colliery, and for that « ffence was sentenced to two years in the Picton jsil. He succeeded in making his eacepe from that place and has since been at large. He is also supposed to have been implicated in the robbery at Cuarlotte- town, last month, by which Mr. Me. Donald, proprietor of an hotel, lost $1,7 On being searched at the station when ar- rested there was found in his possession a set of burglar’s tools. It is not improbable that he intend: d to commit some robberies in this city, and had he not been arrested at the time there is no doubt that he would have done some mischirf 1t is stated that he makes his living by burglary. The -authorities at Pictou have been coramuni- cated with, and an officer arrived last night and identified the prisoner as the one who escaped from the Pictou Jail some three years ago. Kelly is new in custody. He will be taken back to Picton to serve out the remainder of his term, besides another rentence, and after thac he will be wanted to go to Charlottetown, aud possibly other plices, to answer to charges of robbery. This noted character is a man of forty-five years of age, and has recently been ‘doing’ Cape Breton, He hag heen in the city for about ten days.

Capital crimes, of the most atrocious character, seem to be on the increase all over the world. Onr Ontario despatches have, for some time past, described severa] most atrocious murders. The U. 8. papers chronicle 1,467 murders in 188}, an excess of 2)1 over those of 1881. The number of murderers who were hang d was 121. The number iynched almost as large, being 117. The regular executions tock place as follows: Of the 121 criminals 42 were hanged in the Northern States, and 70 in the Southern, the mest distinguished of the list being Charles J. Guitean, who was hanged in the District of Colombia, June 30, for the murder of President Garfiild. The executions in the several states were aa ful- lows:—Misaouri, 7; Louisiana, 8; New York, 6; Wyoming, 1; North Carolina, 7; Dakota, 4; Georgia, 11; Idaho, 1; Ariz DA, 5; Texas, 9; Nevada, 1; South Car-lina, 11; Pennsylvania, 6; Kentucky, 4; Arkan- was, 4; Mississippi, 4; California 3; [iinois, 5; Oregon, 1; Virginia, 3; Alabama, 3; Indian Territory, 4; Tennessee, 6; New Mexico, 2; Colorado, 1; District of Colum- bia, 1; Florida, 2; Deleware, 1; Connecticut, 1. The South, as will be observed, has béen very busy at the ~gallows, though scarcely fair in its discrimination; for ont of ifs 79 tictims 58 were negroes, evidently showing that it is ugt difficult to hang negroes in that section. —aiindinatialirnagsns
