Tue promptness of transportation from Quebec to Charlottetown of the six horses im ported by Messrs. Gardiner, Richards and Bovyer, a few weeks ago, should remove any prejudice hitherto existing to sending live stock by rail from this Island to or from Upper Canada, When we consider that the horses left Point Levis on Friday evening, aad arrived at Moncton on Sunday at noon, it shows that Superintendent George Taylor is alive to the interests of the Intercolonial Rail- way and its patrons.

This intimation riled the proprietor and he threw the beer over the customer. This riled the customer and he threw some unkind wordafJ at the proprietor.

Fisheries Difliculty and Reciprocity.
Queen's County Election Case
Additional Subsidy for the Island.
Orrawa, June lL.
In the House to-day, im answer, Sir Charles Tupper said the Imperial and Do- minion Governments weré deing all in their power for the settlement in a friendly way of the fisheries difficulty, and to promote reciprocal trade with the United States. It was inthe interests of the public that nothing more definite should be said.
In the Queen’s County election case, the same formalities as yesterday were gone through, Mr. Speaker informing Mr. Baird, the sitting member, that he had the right to make any explanation, after which he would withdraw.
Mr, Baird spoke for about an hour and a half, detailing the cireumstances under which Mr. Dunn was appointed returning officer, showing why he continued to hold the seat, stating the opprobrium which had been heaped by the Grit press on himself, and showing the injustice of such action. He made a capital speech, and was listened to attentively, and elicited frequent ap- plause by the vigor with which he handled his opponents. He said +e lists had been prepared in a most shameful manner by bitter partisans and were illegal. He con- cluded by stating he would bow to the de- cision of the House whatever it might be. At recess the debate was not concluded.
Sir Charles Tupper to-morrow will intro- duce a resolution granting Prince Edward Island twenty thousand dollars a year in addition to existing subsidies.
After recess the house resumed the de- bate on the Queen’s County case. Davies moved in amendment to the amendment that Mr. Dunn, the returning officer, who returned the candidate having a minority of votes, be ordered forthwith to attend at the bar of the House to amend his writ by sub- stituting the house to amend his writ by substituting the name of King for that of Baird. After a lengthy discussion a divi- sion was taken, resulting in Davies’ amend- ment being lost by 85 for, and 104 against
25 members absent.
Peter Mitchell charged that it was an exhibition of infamy which would be con- nected with the name of Sir John, who dragooned the house to vote as it did.
Mr. Desjardines repudiated with great vehemence the insult which Mitchell had offered to the house. Mr. Speaker ruled that the word must be withdrawn. Finally Mitchell withdrew his words. After a lively racket, the house divided at 2.25 a. m. on Thompson’s amendment, which was carried, 105 for and 85 against.
Great Fire.
Hamepure, June 1. A great fire broke out at nine o'clock last night in the strand. The harbors quays were speedily destroyed. The flames communicated to and destroyed two British vessels. The mast and rigging of many vessels lying at the docks were burned. The damage will be immense, reaching, it is estimated, several million marks.
Sad Accident.
SACKVILLE, June 1.
A sad accident occurred yesterday about three tnile from Port Elgin. .A young man named Taylor went under a saw mill to make some repairs, and was found shortly after in the river with his head cut open. It is supposed he slipped and fell against the saw. He was the sole support of a widowed mother. Joy at Berlin.
