A Correspondent of the Moncton Times concludes an interesting account of his recent visit to the Island as follows :
‘* No people can be more sociable and hospitable than the island. They keep
open houses for their friends, and welcome.
thenratall times. ‘We harness up and drive to a friead’s, and stay all day, when- ever we feel like it,” we are tald by one of them. ‘Chere are more than the average number of pretty girls, and social cireles do not assume the airs of exclusiveness which are so commen in many places. The ladies are literary in their tastes, carry books with them everywhere, and read while sail- ing, visiting and picnicing. The long and lonely winters, where there is litile inter- course with the outside world, are favorable to this taste for literature, and readin circles, literary clubs, and classes meeting from house to house, combining social in- tercourse with study, are numerous at that season.
The hay and grain crops were ‘never better, and potatoes look promising. Most of the hay has been secnred, and the reap- ers are vathering the grain. In some dis- tricts the wheat is slightly affected by weevil, bué the crop is so large that this will hardly be felt -in the aggregate. A very large quantity of grass seed will be gathered this year, many acres of grass hav-
ing been cul so as to save the seed. With the good crops, mackerel plenty, busi-
ness brisk generally, and the hotels and boarding houses fall of strangers, the people cannot help feeling good. One will, in fet, see wwvyre general prosperity on the Island, and fewer siqQus of poverty than alinost Gi where e/ se.

etiam & Truth Speaking. BLAIMED FOR SPEAKING
TO ENGLISHMEN,
What is the Toronto ‘‘ Globe” at now, bni lecturing Sir John Macdonald is if he were a school boy, for his plain speaking to the Manchester manufacturers! ‘** A judi- clous statesman,’ it says, ‘‘ seeking aid from the capitalists of « foreign country would hardly run full tilt at the cherished convictions of its Administration, its Oppo- sition, and nearly all its inhabitants.” This gives us to understand what the ** Globe” thinks he should have done. He should have English public, and shonid have deceived them by holding out the hope that protec- tion would soon be abandoned in Canada. Supposing he had done this, while all the time secretly determined to stick to protection to the last, the organ that now blames him for speaking the truth would have been wnable te find language severe enough for his con- demnation. We dare prophecy that for his courage in speaking the truth so plainly he will recieve the hearty approval of the Can-
SIR JOHN PLAINLY
adian people; and further, that he will by) | 80 deing, command the respect of the Eng
lish public as well. Our friends in the old land are not admirers of prevarication and
deceit ; downright plain speaking is what
they like to hear, even should it not be on their own side of the question at issue.

THE MANUFACTURE OF SILK,
The mannfacture of silk and satin dress
is promises to assume large proportions. At present, the factory of “lessis. Corri- veau & Co., of Moniveai, is tuning out considerable quautities for which. the firm find a ready demand and which are con- sidered equal, and in some important points snperior, tq the imported articles. Messrs. Corriveau states the existing tariff protects and fosters their interests, whilst it enables them to place their manufactures inthe hand of retailers from 20 to 40 per cent. less than similar grades of imported goods. The factory is fitted with a very complete complement of the best machin- ery, which though of an expensive and in- tricate character, is nevertheless nearly all ef Canadian construction, only some two or three machines being brought from the States. One loom is successfully adapted for steam power by Mr. Corrivean him- self, a result not hitherto accomplished on this continent. With but one exception, all the labor employed is Canadian, so that, practically speaking, both in machinery and labor, it is thoreughly a Canadian in- stitution. Mr, Corrivean is adding new machinery preparatory to commencing the manniacture of silk aud satin ribbons, for which he confidently anticipates a demand move than equal to his power of production,

Stil another cotton factory to be started: Mr. Whittaker, » large manufacturer o Manchester, England, and who visited Can- ada inthe spring witha view to establishing one of his sons in business here, has written to afviend in Ottawa stating that he has fully made up his mind to start a cotton fae- tory in Canada capable of giving employ- ment to 300 hands. The site will be fixed on when he returns in the spring, and among the places mentiened are Lachute, Port Hope; Valleyfield, and Beauharnois.

A recent English Parliamentary return shows that notwithstanding a very consider- able reduction in the rate of taxation in Cyprus, since it was acquired by the British Government, the revenues have in- creased. In the fiscal year, 1879-80, the receipts were £115,-1065 sterling, being £37,000 in excess ot the expenditure,
THe Governor General is expected to return vo Quebec by the 4th September, on which (late arrangements are being made for a grand dinner and ball to take place there.

The Toronto ‘ Globe” being cornered, aduiits that had the late Government con-
, tinued in power, Sir Richard Cartwright i would have been compelled to lay new taxes
on the people. But says the *‘ Globe” he would not have given protection. That is, he would have raised the duty a two anda half per cent, all round, just as he did in 1875, which, while imposing new burdens on the people, would not. foster a single in- dustry. Tea and molasses would have paid i their 2) per cent extra, just as cotton and other goods which this countr? is capable of ‘manufacturing, instead of the duty on tea being actually reduced and a protectiveam- | post placed on goods that can be manufae- , tured in this country as at present. It was | this policy that the people overwhelmingly condemned in 1878, and Mr. Cartwright lacks the opportunity to carry out his tariff ‘ideas. Moncton Times.
