The Drinking Fcuntain.

S1r,—I wish to call the attention of the proper city authority to the only drinking fountain that the City of Charlottetown can boast of ; and I regret to say that there is not much cause for boasting in this case. The fountain should be a great benefit to both citizens and horses if it were looked after properly ; but it is constantly out of order, and if any of the officials are spoken to about it, they reply ‘that the boys throw stones and rubbish into the basin of the fountain, causing the overflow pipe to choke and of course cause trouble.” I know this is the case ; but surely there is a remedy. - THE CITY COURT, before Rowan Robert | Let the police keep a sharp eye on the oO

The Belgian Senate has ratified the bill for a loan of 25,000,000 francs to the Congo State.

Many persons have been drowned and much property destroyed by the overflow of the Zalzach river in Austria.

Sir Charles Tupper has instituted an in- quiry into the Canadian cattle shipping trade, in view of Mr. Plimsoll’s demands for reform in the methods of handling the cattle,

It is stated that the Russian Govern- ment has ordered the enforcement of the edicts of 1882 against the Jews, the effect of which will be the expulsion of 1,000,000 Jews from the country.

Senhor Navarro, a Portuguese deputy, is inclined to make trouble for the govern- ment over the payment to England of £140, - 000 on account of the Delagoa Bay Railway affair.

Prince Herbert Bismarck cherishes care- fully the wreck of a watch which he carried during the Franco-Prussian war, and which stopped a bullet that might otherwise have ended his life.

Bavaria’s latest American wife-capturing prince, the Count Pappenheim, is now said to have lost his seat in the House of Peers by marrying outside the nobility. The prince regent says if aristocracy stoops so low as to marry for money it must lose caste.

Many parents are apt to consider their daughters worth their weight in gold, but a Scotch gentlemen estimated his two daughters’ value at even a higher rate than this, bequesting to each her weight in £1 notes. The elder seems to have been siim- mer than her sister, for she got only £61,- 200, while the younger received £57,344.

The Russian saloon for tea drinking is an interesting feature of life in Russian citiies. The waiters are attired in white from head to foot, with a large black purse at the waist, and are all men, Tea is drunk alone or with lemon, and the sugar eaten from the hand. Eleven or fifteen cups are not too many for an old tea drinker.

China is said to be spending this year about $5,000,000 in the effort to regulate its wayward river, the Hoang Ho, which has recently caused such terrible loss of life and property. A part of its waters are to permanently diverted into the Tu-hai, a river north of the Hoang Ho and almost parallel with it. The ingenuity of man has not yet deyised effective protection against this most troublesome of rivers. The governor of Shantung reports that he needs in his province alone at least $5,- 000,000 to prevent the recurrence of the floods,

Peru has had its whole public debt paid off by an English syndicate, the railroads of the country, with certain valuable conces- sions, going to the Earl of Donoughmore and the other Englishmen who shouldered what the United States representative in Pern calls the ‘‘ three billion debt.” It is somewhat amazing to think of a few private individuals putting $250,000,000 in one lump into any enterprize. Another Eng- lish syndicate has just paid the government of Argentina $15,000,000 as the last pay- ment on a system of railway it has bought in that country.

The London Times special from Buenos Ayres, July 28, says: The Union Civica state that they found boxes of ammunition in the gevernment stores empty instead of full, as the store books indicated. This deception and the error in not cutting the rils and seizing the war minister caused the failure of the popular cause. The exasper- ation against Celman is indescribable. Un- less he resigns it is feared attempts will be made upon his life. The Bourse is closed, and the settlement is postponed until August 9. Exchange shops quote gold at 480. Celman has laughingly de- clared that only a military mutiny could show the people how little he thought of resigning. It is reported that the squadron has surrendered. The minister of war has issued a bulletin pardoning the rank and file of the revolutionists and declaring that 200,000 national guards are ready to defend the country and President Celman. The bulletin is treated with derision and copies are trampled under foot by the people.

The rumor is again revived that the Quebec Government intends at next session to revive the scheme for the purchase of the Magdalen Islands. These islands, which are inhabited by some 6,000 people, are owned by J. C. Coffin, a resident of Boulogne-Surmer, and a grand-son of Ad- miral Sir Isaac Coffin, to whom the islands were conceded by George III. The inhab- itants are desendants of the Acadians, ex- pelled from Nova Scotia, and though they have inhabited and cultivated the soil for over a century, they do not own any of it. Mr. Carrier, the new representative of Gaspe, has promised to do all in his power to induce the Province to purchase these islands and re-sell the property to the pre- sent inhabitants. The system to be adopt- ed will be the same as that employed by the government in 1848, at the time of the abolition of the segneurial tenure. | r. Carrier's large majority in these islands over Hon. E. J. Flynn is largely due to promise made of such a settlement. The value of the property is estimated at $750.- 000, and the Province may make $200,000 out of the transaction, while conferring a real serv.ce on the population.
