OMMITTEE ON DESPATCHES RESUMED.

RAILWAY. Hon. Mr. Wightman asked for an explani 1- | tion of certain items in the accounts which = observed were paid by the government | rv law expenses. Hon. Mr. Strong said that certain persons | had entered actions at law against the con-| tractors for damages, and the government considered it the best policy to settle those claims. Those claims arose from the circum. stance that the contractors had entered upon lands before they were dedicated. The govs ernment found it impossible to fellow up the contractors, or to have the jands dedicated any sooner, and the contractors had no right to pay the expense incurred on account of actions for damages, Hon. Mr. Bald ierson be ‘lieve d the majority

of the cases referred to arose from the in- efliciency of the fence. ion. Mr. Bulger had travelled upon the

line when there was no fence to protect’ the farmers’ crops. Heconsidered that they had a pertect right to recover damages for the loss they sustained. In some instances the farmers’

crops. Hion. Mr. Laird said it was fortunate for the government that the people acted so

leniently towards them with respect to the | damage done by cattle breaking through the fence. He had freqnently expressed his

opinion that if he were in theircircumstances

|

he would try whether justice was to be ob- tained, though he would not a:vise the people to do so. The government were | liable for very heavy damages, and he would | not have been surprised ifthe amount had been ten times as much. He supposed the people would be more alive to their own interests hereafter, and wou i hold the Do- minion Governme..t liable fordamages, The}

It was well | known thatthe then leader of the govern- ment had publicly acknowledged that he had some influence in the appointinent of such coinmissioners, and it was quite reason- able to suppose that in this case ke had used his influence, as the other four were, he believed, all strong si meee rs of the gov- ernment. It was his (Mr. Laird’s) duty as chairman to preside, but that position gave him uo more influenc e than his fellew com- missioners in making the award. The A‘s terney General, in opening the case, said it was not the duty ef the commissioners to take into consideration the general rise in | the yalue of property in Summerside on | account of the construction of the Railway, nor wasilt hisintention to callin any wile}

A Cure for Cholera.—There is not now, there never will be, any reason to fear an invasion of this community by

lary gentleman to an old country newspaper many years ago,may be well worth preserv~

the probable approach of cholera tothe coun-

facts before the publie, and leave it to your discretion to publish them or not.

Ist instance--A planter with a number of coohes on his estate, had 200 cases of severe Asiatic cholera—no deaths.

2d instance—100 troops in an isolated posi- tion, and no medical aid, had 12 cases—no deaths.

Treatment in all cases ;

Ist. Put the patient to bed in a room, with plenty of air and light (mind the light); de not induce sleep.

2d- Talk to the patient til] he recovers.

3d. Place a mustard plaster 8 inches in width across the stomach. so as to completes ly cover the region of the liver and reach fully to the other side; sprinkle the plaster with a little torpentine.

4th. Place the feet in hot water tard for ten minutes,
