LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.

The Question of the Routes.

Srr,—In Mr. Strang’s epistle of the 29th of April to the **one thousand voters” **from Emerald Junction to Cape Traverse and surrounding country,” he returns to the question of the ** routes ” ; and as por- tions of his remarks seem to mvite some consideration, | wili, with your permission, sir, devote a few moments to them. 1 hope it is not quite usel-ss to venture to impress upon Mr. Strang the propriety, if not ihe ‘uty, of adhering to facts when discussing so important a subject as that under re- view. Mr. Strang ws an intelligent man, and, presumably, aa hovest one, and duubt- less knows that the deliberate suppression of material circumstances or conditions is equally as repreheusible as the express declaration of falsehoods.

In regard to the respective merits of the two routes—that by the Capes and tnat via i\Summerside and Point du Chene—the element of mileage is of the first import, |and therefure this fe:ture of the discussion should be wholly free from misunderstand- jing or misconception. In my previcus communication I submitted figures to show the true distance by each route from Char- lottetown to Painsee Junction, and demon- strated, as] thought, that the Summerside and Point du Chene route was 28 miles less than the distance by the Capes. I still con- tend that my figures are indisputable. Mr. Strang, however, seeks to controvert them, but yet admits that a difference of 20 miles exists. This admission from Mr, Strang coincides, in fact, my whole contention, for assuredly, the shorter route can be tra- versed in less-time than the longer one; nevertheless, | desire to call attention to the manner in which Mr. Strang computes his mileages. I asserted, and now repeat the assertion, that the distance from Cape Traverse wharf to Cape Tormentine wharf is 12 miles. Has Mr. Strang dis- puted this? Nothe! But he resorts to subterfuges to throw doubt upon its ac- curacy. He says(what may, indeed, be

in the present controversy the length of the contemplated subway is utter'y irrele- vant, unless, indeed, Mr. Strang or Sen- ator Howlan proposes to run a steam boat through it! Mr. Strang, iu this connec- tion, farther states (what also may be true) that the distance from Cape Traverse wharf to Cape Tormentine is 6} miles, by the officials of the Gulnare. This

; emaphnormation. though seemingly pointed, is

side the question, for Cape ‘Tormentiue and Cape Tormentine wharf are net con- vertible terms—the wharf on the New Brunswick side is not at Cape Tormentine proper, but further down the shore where a place betteradapted for steam boat landiaug

was found, and Mr. Strang, a life-long resi- dent of Cape Traverse, is quite familiar with these facts, but he suppressed them ! A steam boat plying between the Capes— to suppose a bare possibulity—would surely proceed from wharf to wharf, and not from wharf to the beach at Tormentine Cape !

is Mr. Strang not aware that even under the ‘present arrangement” passeugers from Charlottetown via Summerside and Point du Chene can and do arrive at Painsac in time for the C. P. R. train from Halifax? Indeed, they reach there one hour previously. This being so, will Mr. Strang explain how his strey passenger by the Capes could arrive in Muntreai 24 hours ahead! But Mr. Strang’s method of dis- posing of stubborn facts is unique, if not audacious. Assured)y it is competent for the railway and steam boat service between Charlottetown and Painsac to be as fast, at least, by way of Summerside, as similar locomotion would be by the Capes, and the uninteresting stretch of country from Cape Tormentine to Painsac. As the former route is really 28 miles shorter than the latter, it follows that a corresponding sav- ing in time would be effected by n.aintain- ing the exisiing route of travel to and from the Island.

In reference to Summerside and its in terests, the people of Charlottetown are &c- | tuated by no prejudice towards that town. It was only afew weeks since when one of

|their most astute citizens was delegated to Ottawa to present to the Government t heir ‘claims for, certain Jocal marine, mail, and ‘railway improvements, and I am glad to learn that Mr. Hunt’s mission im that be- half has been attended with substantial suc- cess. When the time arrives, Summer-

Side will, I presvme, have some- ‘thing to say in the selection § of | Wise and discreet men of business to repre- ‘sent them in the Parliament of Canada

! Let Mr. Strang be assured, also, that Char- lottetown entertains the most friendly idisposition towards the intelligent and | prosperous inhabitants of Emerald, Kin- kora and Cape Traverse; but while in- fluenced by these sentiments, we feel it our duty to caution them against placing im- plicit credence in what selfish and irre- sponsible correspondents {may choore to allege.

Mr. Strang finds fault with me for with. ho ding s my name from my communications, but he “should remember that modest men are generally reluctint to obtrude their names upon the public.

An Answer for “George.” | Sirm,—There appeared in Tur ExsMinER of the 25th ult., a letter over the signature of “George.” “George” appcars to be hu:t that I should question the writings of such a man as the Kev. Scott-Holland, the learned and clequent Canon of St. Paul's Cathedra!. I do confess that at the time I saw his letter, 1 did not know where the Caren resided. Nor did I care whether he belonged to London, or Rome, or America. When a man comes out io print, his thonghts become public property, and we have aright to bring them to the word of truth, and see if they stand the test, -»

perfectly correct) that the length of the proposed tunnel or subway is 6} miles. But

Singer Corres Two Cente

VOL. 25.—NO. 130

and if not, reject them. When I brought the great Canon's views to the word of life, they would not stand the test, and I was forced to say that there was no gospel in them. I would tell **George” that he wll not tind the people of Charlottetown believe everything that he or the Canon will try to

teach. They are beund to believe for themselves. Again, ‘“‘George” seems to be taken by

surprise, that we, in this out of the way partof t+ worid, believe in the teachings of Martiu Luther. L am not a little eur- prised to hear him say ths about our great Reformer. His name stands higher among Protest«:tsthen ever “George” will, as we owe so much to him for car hberties. But I will give ** George’ w understand that the doctrine that he tries to cast a slur on the great Reformer foris older than Luther's time. I casi trace it back to the great meeting of the Apostles and elders to settle this question. But the doctrine that ** George” and the great Canon preach I can trace back to Mount Sinai.

i am not done with ** George” yet. Heo has tried to turn my letter intu ridicule. 1 would ask the reader of his letter if he has iricd to make it appear that the passage that 1 quoted was not correctly done. Has he showed that it meant something else / Until he does that, it will stand as a great fortresss against him, | would remark that mixing the law and the Gospel to- gether you make sad work of it. It would appear that the death of Jesus Christ was not suflicient for man’s salvation or that the scale of Jesus Christ was to light without the help of the law. But that no man is justitied by the law in the sight of God is evident, for ** the just shall! live by faith,” Galations iii, verse iii.

Thank God for the gospel of His Son. i will close my letter by giving you a caution from the great Apostie of the Gentiles : ** But though we or an angel from heaven preach any other Gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.” This will not allow either ‘** George” or the gzeatest Canon in the world to preach any other.

OBSERVER.

Mistakes of Great Critics.

Horace Walpole called Dante ‘* extrav- agant, absurd, disgusting; in short, a Methodist parson in Bedlam!” Samuel Pepys, Esq., thought ** Othello ” a ** mean thing ;” and ** Midsummer Nights Dream,” ‘**the most insipid, ridiculous play I ever saw in my life.” Bacon's ** Instawratio Maygnam” was described by an emirent con- temporary as ‘“‘the silliest of printed hooks.” Hacket, in his ‘* Life of Lord Keeper Williams,” calls Milton a ** petty schoolboy scribbler ; ’’ and another conte:m- porary spoke of himasthe ‘‘autio: of a profane, and lascivious poem called * Para- dise Lost.’ ”

The critics have shown themselves very poor judges of style, either in literature or art. As a general rule an author of any

merit or seriousness could net possibly do,

a more foolish thing than take their ad- vice. Turner was incomparably the great- e:t painter of his age, yet lis style during the greater part of his life furnish- ela common joke to every seribbler, and tledged the caliow plumage of every would- be wit. Carlyle’s effect upou his age was produced in great measure by his style; yet his style was for some time denounced as a travity of English which was perfectly in- tolerable. Mr. Ruskin is now almost uni- versally regarded as the greatest master of English prose, yet many critics at first re- ceived his style with unmeasured ridicule, When Mr. Browning published his first poem—** Pauline’”’—some critic or other called him ‘* verbose.” Unfortunately—as he has told us—he paid too much attention tu the remark, and in his desire to use no superflous word, studied an elliptic concen- tration of style, which told fatally against the ready intelligibility of ‘* Sordello” and other iater poems.”
