Mr RPlak« proposes to take the duties

How will this plank inthe Reform Leader's

platform suit the people of Nova Scotia,

New Brunswick and P. E. Island ? Sir John Macdonald met with a very hearty reception at Owen Sound, on the

faith in themselves and ia the commercial enterprise of their city. We trust, andin fact feel persuaded, that their efforts will be suc- cessful if they are able to substantiate the statements which they have made with respect to the Bay of Fundy, in winter.

Legislative Council Elections,

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. Tuer Toronto Mail says :- ‘It willbe news to the Prince Edward Islanders when they are told that in electing

their Legislative Council they were expressing an opinion upon Dominion matters; and they wili readily recognize the information us be- longing to th at species of intelligence which one learns about t dome Stic concerns away from home. It is not alittle curious that the victory for the Upper Cham- ber should be claimed by the professed op- ponents in Ontario of Upper Chambers as a re- sult favorable to themselves. But then these same geutlemen claim to be friends of Con- federation, yet they rejoice over secessionist victories in ‘Nova Scotia, and they profess to ulvocates of equal rights, yet they wax en thusiastic over the triumphs of the advocates

of ineqnality before the law in Quebec. No me, therefore, need be astonished that they should welcome the triumph of a class over

the people of Prince Edward. Repealers in Nova Scotia, advocates of French nativism in Quebec, upholders of a Second Chamber in Prince Edward Island, what other illiberal policy can the so-called Liberals champion ! The Montreal Gazette says :

of the most unscrupulous demagogues in the Province,and one of the most thorough- ixced hypocrites in the ranks of the party.

The Patriot is welcome to all the credit which it will gain by endorsing the false end reckless charges of Mr. M. C. Cameron.

Our readers will, no doubt, learn with lexsure (iat Mr. J. H. Fletcher, formerly of the Aryus, hos scored another triumph in the land of his adoption. In the late lection Mr. F. wasthe Republican stan- iard-bearer in one of the Congressional districts of Dakota, and came out of the smntest victorious, having a majority of 609 votes over his opponent. Our ad- vices inform us that not only has Mr. F. hand-

ber; the Opposition urged its retention, and

appear to have elected a majority of members.

Now, if itis a triumph of Liberal principles Blake in the Island to have secured the retention of the Legislative Council yet a little longer, if it is a victory to be gloried in by the Grits of ali Canada, what can be thought of their attitude on the ques- tion of the abolition of the Senate? Surely if a second chamber is deemed necessary in a province with a population of little more than a hundred thousand, the Senate is absolutely essential to prudent and careful legislation affecting the whole Dominion, or is it that these Liberals have no fixed principles, and that their position is definable only as against the other party in all things! At Ottawa the Conservatives hold outfice and favor’ the reten- tion of the Senate; Mr. Blake and his sup- porters for that reason urge that its existence be terminated. At Charlottetown the Con- servatives also hold office, and favor the

the educational exhibits Exhibition. Of those of island the writer says “The Prince Edward Island exhibit is fairly representative of the progressof education in the Province. It includes specimens of work and text books from the St. Dunstan’s and Prince of Wales Colleges as well as the public schools of Charlottetown and elsewhere. The Pro- vince placed its Public School Act on the Statute Book in 1878, and in addition to its colleges now has a Normal School and some £50 public schools, all under the administra- tion of a Government board wit! superintend- ‘nt and iaspectors. An idea of the position given in the Island to education may be s” pine ved from the fact that 42 per cent. of the nual provincial revenue is expended upon it.

Quite an

how golng «

interesting controversy is|

nan the columns of the Halifax Herald between His Grace, the Archbishop

of Halifax } Sir Adams Archibald, anent

the expn'sion of the Acadians. The con- iroversy the outcome of a lectdre lately delivered by Sir Adams before the Nova Scotia ffistorical Society, in which he

custifies the expulsion of the unfortunate \cadians and knocks all the sentiment out of the recital of this people’s wrongs as told by poet and historian. The Archbishop

foes not see the matter in quite the same

lisght,and consequently has entered the lists , the interests of the sons of fair Acadia.

We will watch with much interest the re-

opposing it in another, but the circumstances are wholly different, because the interests concerned are totally unlike. Not only could

the peopie of Prince Edward Island manage their affairs efficiently with a house of assem- bly and so effect an economy in the cost of

government, but we dre inclined to think that a Maritime provinces union with a single chamber would prove of distinct advantage - to

all.”

Stipendiary Wagistrate’s Court.

One drunk and three “Scott Act cases were on the docket to-day. The drunk, who was a grey-haired, weather-beaten in- dividual, said that vesterday afternoon he had taken about a glass of liquor from a man at Southport, and, as the day was dirty, and he had eaten nothing for some- tie previously, the liquor got the uppe: hand of him, and he was gathered in by the policeman about nino 0’ lock last night, on Pownal Street. A fine of $1 or four days imprisoument was imposed.

A lower Queen Street man, who was charged witha third offence against the

Scott Act, did not answer to his name when called. The officer testified to the serving of the summons and the case was proceeded with. Two witnesses were examined, both of whom said that they had obtained spirit- uous liquors on the defendant’s premises between the Ist and 17th November inst. The Magistrate regretted the absence of the defendant, and, after ordering a war- rant to be issued for his arrest, postponed the case until Monday next.

This case was also po: tzonel until Monday and a warrant was ordered for the arrest of the defendant. The same individual was also called a second time on a second charge, but failed to respond. The Marshal then explained that he had been arrested on a warrant for a first offence and had given bail to appear this morning. The witness in the case was then called. He testified that he had been in the defendant's bar on Friday last and had obtained a glass of liquor there for which he paid the defendant either eight or ten cents—he would not be sure which.

sea. The ship rolled and pitched con-| siderably, much to the discomfort of those on board. The sea continually swept over

her, making it extremely dangerous for | those employed on deck. One sea went |

down into the engine room and going on to the het beilers sent up a considerable amount of steam, making things look kind of lively for a while. To add to this a

number of boiler tubes, which were in the hold, became loose from the tossing about

of the ship and set up a terrible clatter. On Sunday afternoon the gale reached its height, and as it was found next co im- possible to make any headway, the ship was
