A want long felt has been supplied 7 l

business for us in Charlottetown, and also-'m&!the harness shop of Mr. Gay where

kinds of saddlery can be obtained on reason-

In fact all the trades.are well represented at this thriving village, and the loudest ery is for more houses.

Dr.S. Jenkins is winning well merited conunendation for his kindness and atten- tion to the sick, and promises to be as great a favorite as the late lamented Dr. Walker.

Mr. Wallace Stewart has sold his farm of 96 acres to Mr. Parker, for $2100, which is counted a fair price, as there are only ‘some 30 or 40 acres cleared on it. We understand that Mr. Murdock McKeuzie, of Mitchell River, has also sold a farm near his residence fur a handsome price.

Land near Cardigan is bound to be valu- able in the near future, for the prices of produce is generally higher at this port than at any other, and the goods required by the farmer can be bought at as low a rate as anywhere in the Island. The trade to Newfound!and also affords an opportunity for shipping live stock during the summer, and all that is wanted is plenty of enter- prising farmers to co-operate with the traders.

Montague Notes.

Our mercl.ants are busily engaged in opening goods, and most of the stores }exhibit a gay appearance.

The hill on the south side of the river is in a deplorable condition. Has our Super- visor gone to celebrate the Queens Jubi- ‘lee /

| Itis to be hoped that the new Post Office ' will soon be ready for use, as our attentive 'and obliging Postmaster is much hampered ‘for room in his present unsuitable quarters. | Mr. M.-W. Nelson, who so faithfully | represented the Charlottetown Wovlen €lith Company in this place, for the last i fivé months, took his departure for the city this morming, much to the regret of his many friends and aequaintances. By his strict attention to business, his obliging disposition and his many other estimable qualities, Mr. Nelson has won for himself the confidence and esteem of the commun- ity. Itisto be hoped that his successor may prove as faithful and obliging as Mr. Nelson.

A change has been made in the officers of the Salvation Army here—Capt. Maltby has gone to New Brunswick and Cadet Vail to New Glasgow. Their places are supplied by Capt. Woir and Cadet Prest, from Char- sottetown. Both the officers are possessed of considerable ability, and their solemn and urgent appeals to the unsaved are most convincing. Considerable interest is mani- 'fested by the people in their meetings. The l attendance is good and the order is excel- Hent. It is to be hoped that much good \ will be done, as thetasses manifest a burn- |ing love and zeal for the salvation of souls.

Steaming Under the Sea. THE SEVERN RAILWAY TUNNEL AS COM- PARED WITH OTHER GREAT BORES.

The first passenger train passed through the giyantic tebe linking the shores of Moumouthshire and Gloucestershire. Be- fore those on board quite knew where they were a shrill whistle, a sudden darkening — for it was now nearly broad daylight—-and ‘** We were iu!” told them they were “in” and rushing eown a clearly perceptible de- cline toward a point 100 feet below the bed of the broad estuary. In a trice watches were out and windows down, the first to keep time, and the other to test ventila- tion. The inrush of the icy cold air, as clear and as pure as if the trip across was being made in the old way —over instead of under the channel—showed the latter was all right. The submarine journey— if such it may be called— proved to be more like arun through a pretty deep cutting than through a tunnel four and a quarter miles long. For about three minutes and 4 half after e tering there was neo mistak- ing the fact that a sharp gradient was being descended, then a momentary rumble as the train passed over the curves of the arc -for the tube dips in the centre—aud then the locomotive, at an ever decreasing speed, climbed the opposite gradient, to emerge once more into daylight in eight minutes and forty-nine seconds. As before remarked, the ventilation of the tunnel is little short of perfect. Dur- ing the construction of the work a fan over eighteen feet in diameter, discharging 60,000 cubic feet of air per minute, was used. This has now been replaced by a fan 40 feet in diameter, and 12 feet wide, made on the same priaciple as those used at the'Mersey and a portion of the Metro- politan tunnels. The tunnel is 26 feet wide and 20 feet high from the double line of rails to the crown of the arch inside the brick, work. The rails are laid on long latitudinal sleepers. The tunnel has been lined throughout with vitrified bricks set in cement, and no less than 75,000,000 bricks have been used im this work. ‘This vertitied brick wall has a thickness of three feet in the crowmof the arch be- neath the shoots, but ag® the’ vunnel rises from this lowest point on’ jent one in one hundred toward the jucestershire side, the thickest is grad “reduced to

two feet and ie inches... —

The total length of the Severn tunnel is 4 miles 624 yards. The St. tun- nel is 9} miles. 1-8 miles; Axiberg tunnel. (Austria) 6}; there is a tunnel in Massachusetts 4} miles, the Standge tunnel om the London and North-Western, is "wand the Box tunnel rather less. But the special feature of the Severn tunnel lies in the fact that 7j miles of it have been con- structed from 45 to 100 feet below the bed of a rapid flowing tidal estuary, offering engineering difficulties which make it the most remarkable tunnel in the world. — Cardiff Mail.

a oS Band Work in Charloticiown. The Band of Christian workers in con- nection with the Second Methodist Church has been in existence a little over three months and the record of its work is highly encouraging. The five, companies into which the Band is divided, have held about fifty meetings, generally in the houses of those who have rarely attended religious services of any kind. The total attendance at the services have reached about a thou- sand people, or an average per meeting of twenty. In nearly every service held the results have been encouraging. Quite a number of individuals and fami- lies almost Jost to Methodism have been reached, ‘and are now attending our Sab- bath and week evening services. Many attending the cottage meetings have been impressed with the necessity of a religious life, and about a dozen have been led into the possession of a conscious, personal sal- vation. The work of the Band has com- manded quite a little notice im the city, and we have reason to believe that the im- pressions formed respecting the need and rich possibilities of such an organization in connection with our churches, have been favorable in every direction. The weekly service held for the reception of reports aud for the encouragement of the Band has been of great profit to all,

The members engaged in this work have been already blessed, and ail our services have been largely benetited by the effort here referred to.

The attendance at our weekly prayer meeting has more than doubled and a gracious influence has been secured for all the departments of our church work.—W. Hf. in Glad Tidings.

The English National Debt.

Large as the national debt of Great Britain is, it is now $150,000,000 less than it was ten years ago. Two centuries ago it was not much over $3,000,000. At the close of the American war, a century later it had been increased to $1,215,000,000, and when the Napoleonic wars were con- cluded it Sexceeded $4,300,000,000. The Crimean war was a costly affair, but at its close the gate debi had fallen to $4,040,000,000, and the process of reduction has since been continu- ous. In 1875, under Sir Stafford North- cote’s regime, the annual charge of the debt was fixed at §$140,000,000, and a process of reduction under easy conditions wasarranged. In 1883 the system was revised and the rate of reduction quickened. The chancellor of the exchecquer then estimated that in twenty years $865,000,000 would be paid off by the operatien of the new sinking fund. The debt at present amounts to $3,710,000,000. It would be pleasant to be able to record some reduc- tion of our own public indebtedness, neo matter how slight.
