In the evening a public meeting was held in the neat and commodious Wesleyan Chapel of the village, where a highly cul- tured and critical assembly of handsome ladies and gallant gentlemen were assem- bled to sit in judgment onthe speeches, recitations, singing, etc., then to be pre- sented. A full and detailed report of the evenings doings would exceed the space allotted to the writer, but in closing would say that the friends of the Scott Act mean business, and wuuld earnestly call upon every true temperance man, who has a vote in the City of Charlottetown, to prove his principles by being at the poll on the 24th November, and manfully cast his ballot against the petition and in favor of law and order. We are proud to learn that Victoria has banished the hydra-headed fiend from her borders, and now peace and prosperity reigns supreme.—OnrE Present.

Reports from Ottawa tell us that the milkmen had better look out, for we hear that the Government is to ask Parliament to pass a law establishing a uniform stand- ard for milk. That is all right, but there 8 no use ‘‘establishing the standard” unless the law is enforced and people found violat- ing the law punished as the law provides.

tell what a preventative of drunkenness and crime is this foreing of city convicts to work on the streets and public squares? Lazy, shiftless rascals, to whom work is the greatest terror, are not likely to seek the shelter and comforts of a jail (as they do in Charlottetown) when they know that their days must be spent in laboring on the streets, chained, and under the watchful eye of a keeper. Perhaps the comparative rarity of bad cases of drunkenness in Victoria is due,—in part, at least,—to the fearful fact of the chain-gang.

Though drunkenness such as renders a man liable to arrest is not so common in Victoria, as it is in some other towns I have seen, it will soon be apparent to an observ- ing man that there is in Victoria a great deal of drinking, and that a large part of the people’s earnings goes over the bar. Saloons are open at all times, day and night, on Sundays as well as on week days; and the saloon keepers evidently ply a prosperous vocation.

While the church bells are ringing and people are going to worship, the bar tender stands, with his apron on, at his open door, and boys play marbles on the streets, and sportsmen sally forth with guns in their hands and dogs at their heels. The Vic- torians impress the visitor with the idea that they are very free and very easy in all things, and by their actions they seem to

say, ‘** Liberty’s home is here ; do whatao- ever you wish.” At the same time the stranger fee!s they are frank and honest,

of liquor, not the men (as a class) to take |

meaning thereby King Henry the Second, then peaceably possessed of Londun. It has been suggested that the author of these lines in callmg London Cockenay might possibly allude to that imaginary country of idleness and luxury, which was ancienty known by thenameof Cokaigne or Cocagne. + *
