Prices in the States.

Davies into the be- lief that the prices of farming machines an implements are very much dearer here than they are in the States, and that our farm- ers would, under Unrestricted Reciprocity, be able to buy their machines in the States The officia

COMMENTING upon General Butler's article ri the N rth American Review —referred to by Tue Examiner some days ago—the Empire SAYS: :

But for the belief that a large number of Canadians would hail with plessure an attempt to at- tach our country to the United States, a be- liet engendered by the utierances of traitors here, and of journals which protest that ‘* this is not 4 Britteh country”—-we would not be treated to such insulting articles as are nuw common tn United States papers, We have too much faith in the sober sense of the people of vot countries to be slarmed by sach a pro- spective campitign aa Ben Butler has «ketched; but if the time ever comes that invaders set foot on Canadian soil, we would soon unde- ceive them as to how ovr population would receive them. “A short shrift and a strong cord” would soon rid us of the few traitors whe are now tolerated because they are be- lieved to be comparative'y harmless, and Can- ediaus a3 one man would rise and show that they ace still made of the same stuff as South- ern invaders had a taste of befure at Queens- ton Heights and other battle fields.”

THE DAILY

Varia.

It is now ascertained that the Experor Frederick's Diary was sent to the Rundschau by Dr. Geticken, whe probably received it from the Crown Prince himself, with whom, ws well as with his mother, the Empress Augusta, he was on terms of intimacy. But his preliminary examination is not: yet completed, sv that nothing has been pub- lished to the world.

"e . .

In Europe the chiet interest 18 still cen- tered in the Emperor William's movements. tie has spent some days in Vienna with the Austrian Emperor, and their friendship has been made still closer by « spell of chamois shooting in the mountains. His reception by the Viennese crowd was respectful but vot enthusiastic. This is supposed to be due to the policy of the Prime Minister, whose majority reposes upon Czechs and Poles and German Ultramontanes who look eldly upon the German Protestant Kaiser. Che supposition is confirmed by the marked neglect of the Minister by the German Ktmperor, who siid and did nothing to hin, while he bestowed decorations and private wudiences on the Foreign Minister and the fungarian Premier. This has been inter-

reted xs a recognition by the Emperor of he great importance of Hungary in the netley composition of the Austrian Em ire. But the visit has been sigualized hy wn ine'dent which marked the tunshaken 3o'dity of the Austro-German Alliance. At . State banquet the two Emperors, not ontent with toasting each other. toasted their respected armies. The two rmies met last in hostile array on the plain f Sadova; when they meet again it will robably be as comrades tightung side by ae asainst Slavs or Gauls.

tically at an end, but another little war has broken out in the Black Mountains in the Nerth of India. An expedition which was sent out las so far been successful, having iter some hard fighting, secured the points simed at, and driven the enemy into the

wilds. But the fighting is not yet over; ind a forest has to be penetrated anda rmver crossed, before the enemy can be reached again. However, reinfo:cements

have been sent up and the trvops are conti- tent of a speedy termination of the cam- paign.

"_" Genera! Boulanger is back again in Paris, ifter a tour in Spain, during which he has coatrived to keep up sone public interest in his proceedings by involving his move- ments in mystery. His symbolic flower is the pink ; and the Comtesse de Cham- bord has paid the compliment of imitation to him by instituting a *‘ League of the Rose" for the Royalists.

+ * The French President is clearly some- thing more than the mere upright man of yusiness he was supposed tu be when he was elected. He is taking pains to know and be known bythe electora in all parts vf France, and appears to be gaining a more stable place in the estimation of the people that any of the shifting statesmen by whom he is surrounded. He just paida visit to Lyons, and has been enthusiastically re- ceived by the democracy of the second city vf France. But his ministers persist in making trouble for him. A decree requir- ing all resident foreigners to register Various troublesome particulars about themselves before the Mayor of the commune, may ‘be either # retaliation for the German require- ments about passports in Alsace-Larrame— in which case it is rather a petty spite—or a concession to the clamour of the working men whe want to get rid of Italian and Beigian competitiun—in which case it is a somewhat dangerous interference with economic laws of the same kind—though with less justitication—as the dealings of the Americans and Australians with the Chinese

“Who is the Bard of Avon?” I am sked. Shakespeare, who was born and buried at Srratvord on Avon (1564-1616.) Che term Bard has been appiied to several uther poets as well :

Bard of Ayrshire—Robert Burns, a na- tive of Ayrshire. Bard of Hope ~-Thomas Campbell, author of ** The Pleasures of Hope.” Bard of Imagination—Mark Akenside, author of ** Pleasures of Iinagination.” Bard of Memory — Rogers, author of ** The Pleasures of Memory.” Bard of O\ney—Cowper, who resided at Viney, in Bucks, tor many years. The Bard of Prose—** He of the Hun- dred Tales of Love,” i. e., Boceaccio— ** Childe Harold.” iy. 56. The Bard of Rydal Mount—William Werdsworth. So called because Rydal Mount was his mountain home. Also calied the ** Poet of Excursion,” from his principal poem. Bard of I'wickenham—Alexander Pope, whe resided at Twickeuham.

+ % In answer to C. F., I beg to say that I do not know where to refer him that he may obtain a list of the ensigns used by the ditferent nations. I have a number in my common-place book, but it is by no means a complete list : China—A Dragon. Aucient Athens— An Owl, Corinth—A Flying Horse. Ancient Danes—A Raven. Ancient Egypt—A Crocodile. England (im the Tudor era)—St. George's Cross. The Turks—Horses’ Tails. Romans—The Eagle. The Persians—~A Blacksmith’s Apron. The Welsh—A Dragon.

The national emblems, so far as I have been able to co.lect them, are :

Leek, emblem of Wales.

Rose, emblem of England.

Shamrock, emblem of Ireland.

Thistle, emblem ef Scotland.

Lily, emblem of France.

Linden, emblem of Prussia.

Mignonette, emblem of Saxony.

Vio'et, emblem of Athens and of the Na- poleons.

Pomegranite, emblem of Spain.

nen) OS Geese Parneilism and Crime.

On the re-assembling of the Parnell comis-ion on ‘Thursday. Attorney General Webster resumed his address in bebalt ofthe Times. Hedilated on the rclations between the Parnellites and mem- bers of the American League, contended ‘hat the league originated in Americagand declared that it was a conspiracy” by American money. Members of league in Anxres were dynamiters fand ads ocat+s @ murder, and they had Parnellites as a-com- plices, He denounced Redpath and Rossa as dynamiters who had p otted for the most villuinous forms of outrage. He said it was absured to say that Parnell had nv relations with Patrick Ford, as a host of facts proved an intimate connection betweed the two. The counsel for the defence has had a subpeena served upon Thos. Power O'Connor summoning him to appear before the Parnell commission.

The Freeman's Journal asserts that over 200 Irish policemen have been placed at the disposal of the London Times as wit- nesses who may be weitulin§ proving its charges against the Parnellites. It says no subpcenas were issued for such witnesses. it a'sv declares that copies of letters belong- ing to Mathew Harris, which were seized when the police searched his . house, have been given to the Times.

RAND MATCH RACE

BLACK PILOT, 2.301, by All Right, 5817, BLACKBIRD, 2.36, by the same sire, HELENA, 2.32, by Mambrino Charta, 868,

_ ~WILL TROT A GRAND MATCH RACE ON--

UMMERSIDE DRIVING PARK

Wednesday, Oct. 3ist, Inst,, TIME AND A PURSE OF $200.

1 ABOVE MATCH will, without doubt, be the most exciting and hotly contested race ever trotted in the Maritime Provinces, and as it is one principally for record, there will be some of the fastest speeding ever seen in Prince K:iward Island, if not in Lower Canada, as the contestants are among the fastes’ of the Provincial horses. Pilot and Black- bird will be driven to lower their records, in orver that they may become eligible for regia- tration. The race will therefure be «a fair, square, honest trial of epeed, im which each animal will trot on its merite. Every objectionable feature will be eliminated from the contest, and those who wish to witness a square race will have the opportunity of duing so, as the managers are determined to prove that trotting can be conducted in an eut rely satisfactory manner,

Lovers of the Noblest of all Sports should not miss this Race.

No fakir business or int»xicating liquor will be allowed on the grounds. The races will be conducted according to National Rules, and first heat will be called at 1.30 p, m. sharp,

Admission to Park: Gentlemen, 25 Cents; Ladies Free.

®PECI¢tL RAILWtY FARES.—A Special Train will leave Charlottetown at 9.15 a. m. (local time), returning after the trot is over in the evening. Return Tickets will be issued on this Tiain at ONE DOLLAR from Charlottetown, and from intermediate Stations between that city and Summerside at same rate as those granted late Hernando- Black-Pilot race. Return Tickets at one first-class fare wiil be issued from all ether Stations on the line.

To fill in the time, it has been suggested te give the patrons of the Park a full after- nogn’s genyine sport, and consequently it is probable there will also be a 2.55 class, for @ good purse, in which several of the best Jocal horses will take pert, and of which fuller particulars will he given in Monday's Ariculturtst.
