suggestion of our present representatives Messrs.

Hackett. It is well to have this acknows

ledgment from one who occupies so large a |

place in Gritdom as the Hen, Alexander Mackewzie, lately Premier of Caneda, aud Minister of Pubhe Works!

2. ** We have curried out the terms of

Union to the utmost possible extent.”

What do the electors of Prince Edward Island think of this eracular statement «f the great Grit? By the ‘ Northern Light” the Island has been provided as fa aa pussible with *° continuous and eflicien: steam communication with the Mainland. This is, in other words, what Mr. Mx Kenzie has said. Do we believe this? [: we do, we shall elect the Grit Candidates! !

3. In a late issue of the Patriot Tue

EXAMINER was accused of stating what was false and attempting to wislead the people by saying that the Hon. Alexander Me- Kenzie ‘‘ opposed” the grant by Parliament of $189,200 tor the construction of a branch line vf railway to Cape Traverse. Well now, we think the proof of the statement is contained in the words themselves. It must be remembered that they were uttered before the grant was made. ‘‘ We have done,” Mr. Mackenzie says, *‘ very well by the Island” and we have also “‘carried out the Terms of Union to the utmost po:sible extent’ and on that account, therefore it may fairly be inferred, that be (Mr. Mackenzie) opposed the grant of $189,200 for the construction of Cape Traverse Rail- way. If, taking all the circumstances into consideration, any other construction can be legitimately placed upon the words, we shall be happy to hear it.

DD OP ee

The Dominion Electiors.

Tue prevailing opinion for some time past has been that the Dominion Elections were near at hand. This opinion is veri- fied in the speech of the Governor General at the close of the seasion at Ottawa, on the 17th instant. The words used by the Governor General are full of signiticance and commend themselves to the serious consideration of every lover of his country all over this great Dominion. Alluding iv the *‘ rapid and succexsful development of our manufacturing, agricultural and other industries,” His Exce'lency is advised that **the progress of the country would be still greater, were it nut that capitalists hesitate to embark their means in undertakings which would be injured by a change in the trade and fiscal policy adopted by the Par- liament of the Dominion in 1879. In order, therefore, to give the people, without further delay, an opportunity of expressing their deliberate opinions on this policy, the Parliament will be dissolved at an early day.”

What can be fairer than this? The reasons given are sufficient to warrant the action which the Government has take. The National Policy has been in operation for three years, and has proven to be of infinite advantage to the country at large. It has proved to be the greatest good to the greatest number. Factories have sprung up everywhere all over the Pro- vinces. Industries uf every kind have been Stimulated.

It is now admitted on all sides that a large amount of capital is seeking inves’ - ment m manufacturing enterprises in the Dominion. It is also true that capitalists in these days are timid and will not invest in any enterprise subject to contingencies which might prove ruinous to them. Hence the necessity of asking, at this im- portant period in our history. the verdict of the electurs upon the Tariff policy ; and the Government are only discharging a duty which they owe to the country and to the manufacturers who are awaiting the de cision of the people at the polls to deter- mine whether in the future their invest- ment of capital in industrial enterprise shall be contracted or enlarged.

The action of the Government in dis- solving Parliament will be heartily endorsed by the great bulk of the people.

The ever popular sweet pea, with its varied hues and strong per- fume, makes one of the desira®le lannuals for our gardens.

Then, ‘too, there is the cloister cheeked lily of the valley ; what a meek, pensive beauty she is, and how deliciously sweet is her balmy essence. The heliotrope, with its sober aspect and vanilla-like scent, makes a dainty bed. The pure white flowers and the delicate perfame of the Sweet Alyssum make that little planta great favorite. The peculiar fracrance from the Wallflower is very refreshing, and the flower deserves a prowinent place in all our gardens.

All these flowers are within the reach of every one possessing a piece of land. A few cents expended on seed will yield a nobtle revurn. Many persons, delighting in the perfume of flowers, will spend much money in vbtaining a handful of them. Let these persons be more generous, plant seéds, and let the town enjoy the pleasure.

The

INCIDENTS OF THE TRIP—GRAPHIC DESCRIP- TION BY THE CHIEF ENGINEER.

THE steamer ‘‘Prince Edward,” Captain Robert Fraser, arrived from Liverpool this morning with a full cargs of general mer- chand ze. The passage this time was quite interesting, and is well described in the following report by Chiet Eagineer Rogers:

** On the 22nd of April we left Liverpool. The weather was favorable until we rounded Tuskar, when we experienced a hard pall against continuous strong head winds and sea. Nothing remarkable occurred until the evening of May 2d, when the wind became piercingly cold, foretelling there was ice ahead. On the meroing of the 3rd, the *‘stepmother’s breath” became most intense, and the sea water fell to 42°, asure indication we were in the \ icinity of ice. We did not wait long until our wel - grounded suspicion was realized. In the fore- noon we passed several large icebergs fleatioy lazily along on the outer edge of the bank We never lost sight o ice the whole day.ad towards evening met with largs blocks of driit ice, which caused us no little uneasin:ss as we felt sure we were to haveit in larger quan- tities. Darkness setting in, and much ice being visible i. the distance, Captain Fraser prudently resolved to ‘‘lay to” till daylight, cons«quently the order was given at 9:0 to stop the engines, and stand by the handles. Chis was rather laborious work for the en gineers, as every few minnter, the engines had to be atarted, to clear the pa-sing juvks «f ice. At daybreak on the 4th, we found our- selves in a large tract of field ice, but with a long open channel before us. At 4.30, the order ‘‘fuli speed ahead’ was given and we steamed up the open water for two hours. A large barque, with a full head of sail on, wa- seen to the northward, apparently fast in the ce, and, no doubt, doing ber best to get out of the perilous position. Finding no outlet at the end of this long bay, we were compelled to retrace our eourse for about 16 wiles, when we rounded a long poiut in the field, and again steered westward, in open water. At eleven o'clock, a. m., we witnessed one of the most magnificent paporamic scenes I ever beheld. As far as the eye could reach, th- ecean was studded with icebergs of the most gi.autic proportions, as many as forty seven being in sight at one time, many of them, perhaps, from 150 to 200 feethigh. The sight of this vast floating city was truly grand, and the variety of form assumed by those huge crystals was highly interesting. Some of them represented castelated towers, church spires and domes, while others had great holes or caves worn in them by the action of the sea, and not a few appeared like immense piles of ruins, tilting and leaning, —

Green IsJand was made on the morning of the 7th, with much drift ice coming from Canso. When a! reast of Sandy Point we discovered, much to our disappointment, the Gut completely choked, jand not the slightest possibility of making a passage. We, therefore, sheered off for Habi- ant Bay, and anchored, at noon. At four p jm » we parted with one of our passengers, Capt.
