Protection in Engiand.

‘* Brackwoop,.” for this month, bas sounded the battle cry of “ Tariff Re- form.” It sees no inteation on the part

of the Dominion, or of other Colonies, to abanden their Protective duties; and neiices, that wherever free iustitutions prevail, there is a fixed determination to foster and protect native industries. Seeinz this, it thinks that for the sake of manufacturers, no less than of agricul- ture, it is the duty of the Legislature to devise the most. prompt and efficient means for arresting the decay of agricul tural wealih, which is fatally reacting en English manufactures.

The remedy proposed is to impose a low but general scale of duties on all such foreign articles experts may decide would be tiscally worth while to tax, the duties to be from eight to ten per cent.

Ia order to kuit England more closely with her colonies and to counteract the

as

hostile tariffs of foreign countries, a com- piel tant la' gamat:on of the United Kingdom and i dependencies 8 aug ceste: It is 3 sed that the Im- perial Parliament s sas an Aci, and Rat whi e au ouy hi hi in

England is evidently learning that ber farmers and her maaufacturers cannot continue their losiag struggle against un- ,emuuérative prices.

The Attack on the Land Office.

lo prejudice the minds of the jurymen

avarnst * the other ai a : \ir Maleolm MeLeod, Q. C., may, perhaps, as solicitor mm the OFarrel-MeDonald ease, have

used language with reference to the Land Office, which, placed in other circum- stances, he would pot venture to use. But he did not, and will not, make the grave charge which it is said he did.

This being the fact, the attacking party are without a base for their opera- ijons. The attack is even more baseless than the fabric of a dream. There is vothing to support it but the false render- ing of a lawyer's speech toa jugy. There- tore it must fail.

Of this the Patriot, which leads the attack, is evidently well aware;. and, io desperation, it seizes upon a statement made by the Hon. Mr. Ferguson, hoping to create a diversion, save itself from the discredit it deserves, and, perhaps, score a poiot. It is only making itself the mere ridiculous.

Mr. Ferguson's statement was to the effect that he was not in charge of the Land Office, when “the sales” out of which the case grew were made; the Patriot finds that Mr. Ferguson issued a deed to one of the purchasers, and de- mands, with an air of confidence :—

** Does the Examiner pretend to main- tain that the sales were “‘ made” before the Land Commissioner signed the deed?”

Of course Tue Examiner does. The “sale was made the moment the pur- chaser made the deposit agreed upon and obtained his receipt forjthe money. There is proof of the truth of this statement in the very case out of which this dis- cussion grew. The O’Farrell’s made purchases «f their holdings, and never yet received their deeds. McDonald made a purchase, and demanded and re- ceived his deed. The O'Farrel’s con- teuded that McDonald, under his pur- chase, encroached upon their land. From the evidence adduced in court,it appesred that their contertion was right; and they gained the case though they had net a deed aud McDonald had. The deed is merely the evidence that there has been a sale and transfer, and if the stipulations of the bargain have been comphed with, the deed cannot be re- tased.

The more we learn concerning Hon. Mr. Fergusoa’s action in this case, the more prudent and praiseworthy does his conduct appear. So soon as he heard about the dispute between the O’Farrel’s aod McDonalds, he did what he could to induce the latter to forego his claim ; and it was ouly when threatened with a man- damus that, in accordance with legal advice, which he was beuad to follow, he issued the deed,

Thankagiving Sermon

IN THE METHODIST BRICK CHURCH,

THe Rev. Mr. Tippett preached in the

Methodist Brick Church from the following

text: “Offer unte God Thanksgiving.” o0th psalm., 14th verse.

[he reasonableness for such gratitude arises from the situation and deaparity existing between benefacter and the benefitted, and this reasonableness ripened into actual devotion when the desparity is apprehended by. man. In the fitness of things, God has so arranged matters that everythings pays Him tribute—Nature's ebedisnce is His service. The singing of the the trees of the field clapping their hands; the laughing river and the melody of the ocean, are all figures of speech. Man is the mouthpiece for th dumb creation, endowed with faculties and made capable of rendering actual service to his Maker. Nothing seems more natura! than gratitude from man,—not growing fact ef contrast which shows ont

a God; but show

the

stars;

no cause fer apprehension. In common with other denominations we have lost some of our mightly men ; but the church was never better able to supply their places. There may have beer some sweeping desola tions driving forth thousands upon a world of charity ; but the brotherhood ef man was nevec so visibly set forth as in the spoutaneous offerings for their relief ; and no one has suffered because of his liberality. The wor!d may have blushed at some of the dark deeds of her sons; but their effect has been to prove that we are all brethren, and in the day of our trouble we all go te the same common Father for help.

If. The year has had its results. When ever in the history of a single year has thers been given to the world so many copies of God's word—Never more money given for benevolent purposes — Never mere churches built in which to worship God—The meaning of the word was never more cleariy defived—Man never asked more anxiously for the truth and facts— never showed more clearly that God yet intended to bury the rebel planet into the brotherhood of worlds. We can call up without effort scene: of grave abprehension; but no day has paseed without being em- pewered to.vouch for the clement and a>»- solute reign of God,

His band has been‘stretched forth some- times on the dark side of the cloud to teach us to trust when we cannot trace, at one time breaking to pieces our schemes and raising our happiness eut ef their ruins, showing us that our triumphs are errors, our disappointments escapes; leading us to the gates of the grave to repress presump- tion, then snatshing us back to kindle de yotion, and thus, by a diversity cf opera tion, has been leading us from a word of shadows to that ef ght. I know not the thought which rises to the top as you this morning sit in yotr pews, filled with glee.

To the Editor af the Patriot. Sin,—Censidering the great advantage

which an editor poasesses over & correspond- ent in a discussion, carried en in his own paper, it is, I think, a pretty sure sign of a bad cause or feeble advocacy en his part, when he is obliged te resort to personal abuse. I do not complain of this kind of writing ; it may gratify you very much, bat it does me no haria whatever.

After referring to the fact that the deed ‘0 MacDonald was issued after [ became Commissiener of Public Lands, and was signed by me, you say: ‘‘Mr. Ferguson does not need to be told that the sale was net made until the deed was signed.”

My reply to this statement is just this: [ not only need to be told of this strange doctrine, but it will have to be repeated very often in my ears before I will believe it. A man comes to the Land Office and ayrees with the Commissioner fer a piece t land at a price named. He pays the wnount of the deposit required by law, and receives a receipt which is in the form of an agreement fora deed His name is placed upon the werking plan, and an account setting forth the transaction is spened in the books ef the Department, You under- take to affirm thas because the deed was pot signed, there had been no “sale.” I must say that your eentention indieates a very

tanding of what constitutes 1 ODlgation.

1 quite agree with you here; and beg t inform you that [ did precisely as you suggest. When I tound that O’Farre!! claumed the land which was seid te Me- Donald, L instructed Mr. Strong te write to MeDenald offering him to refund the monty paid by him, and to do what we ceuld fto surt him to other ;vaesnt land. I did” ali [ ecould to induce

Measrs. Longworth and Haszard, that they would make application to the Supreme Usurt, then sitting, for a mandamus to compel mes tedoso. As it was a case oi grave difficulty, and the statements ef the claimants direcsly conflicted with each other, I did not take this step without taking proper legal advice.

1 noties that Tue Examiner on what authority it does not state, says that the editor has been informed that Mr. Malcolm McLeod did not use the language attributed te him by the editor of the Summerside Journal. Lhave not noticed tnis attack, beeause | attach any impertance te the vituperation of Ceunsel, or because I had any fear of my personal character suffering from such; but with the sole view of vindi- cating the staff ef the Land Offices from foul aspersions which might, if unchalleng ed, weaken the publio confidence so neces- sary to be reposed in a Department having se much to do with the titles of lands in the Island,

Mr. Epirer,—Mr. Murdoch, the editer of the ** Inverness Highlander,” delivered his lecture on ‘* British Landiordism,” in the Uigg Hall, on Friday evening, the 14th inst., to a small but very appreciative audience.

Joha F. McLeod, Esq, was appointed chairman.

The lecturer began by telling us that he came to this Island to learn how we got rid of landlordiam. and to ask our aid in breaking the ben's which still biad our countiymen across the water Hs expati- ated ou the evils of landiordiem, showing how the people were driven from the god lands aud foreed either to emigrate er to settle on the bad lands, and af, by hard laber, they reclaimed those lands, they were forced to pay higher rents for them. How they annually pay from £5 to £10 per acre, we couldn't imagine, utt! Mr. Murdoch enlightened us by saying that the rent was paid by their sons and daughters—who go out to service. The land'ords treat their tenants as if they were made of differont eay—they them. selves beiny the china, and their tenants tre earthcnware of humanity.
