Editorial Notes.
According to a corre sp mdent of the Gazette. Dr. Anderson, of Prince of Wales College, spoke very strongly, in the course ‘ i his address at Windsor Hotel, Mon treal, in favor of co-education. He™ said
thac after a long trial, during which he had kept his eyes and ears open, he had not observed any evil results, On the contrary, he spoke of the retining influence 1 had had
on the young men from the rural districts.
The establishment of a Canadian mint is strongly ad vocat <i. The Vonetai yu Time s says: * The arguments adduced in its favor are that it will give a gre.t impetus to the gold mining industry, it will save the miner from 5 to 10 per cent. of his product, and that it will add greatly to the prestige ol Canada to have its own gold coinage. Many people are of the opinion that the time has arrived when Canada should have its own standard gold coins. The severeign is awkward and clumsy in its relations to our dullar, and our pedple objec. very strongty to United States coins being accepted by Canadians as a standard of value.” “A judge’s right

Our Farmer Boys.
There is a frequently recurring complaint from the farm, says the American Ayriculturalist, of the reluctance of boys to remain in farming pursuits, indeed some- times even to enter on sucha life’ What is the cause of this restless spirit? Are country employments odious in themstlves? It is appalling to note the young lives wrecked in cities: youths who strained every
| nerve and used every means to attain a pro-
fession, who just reach the threshold and then succumb, worn out in mind and crash- ed in body, Of the vast multitude who year after year leave “their country homes to seek fortune in cities, how. many suc- ceed? The percentage is very small, even of those who find «a moderate amount of success. Some lack ability, others endur- ance, and many do not possess sufficient strength. i
From these remarks it must not ‘be in; ferred that dull and weakly boys are by nature best fitted to remain in the country and become farmers. The ablest men mentally are none too enlightened, none too capable, to cope with the many difficult problems of agriculture. To-day. the land question holds the attention of Europe,and with our abundance of territory, as yet sparsely populated, we are nob, many generations distant from searcity Of land and its inevitable difficulties. . The hardest part of farm life is its seeming monotony. , We advisedly use the word seeming, because farm life is more varied than is professional or mechanical life. . The four seasons bring to the farmer varied occupations and varied pleasures. ‘The journalist, the iawyer, the doctor, in their callings know no seasons ; three hundred and sixty-tive days annually are. the. working days of those who toil in the paths of the higher professions. Arti- sans and mechanics only enjoy rest on one lay in every week. Railroad employees two, sometimes three, Sandays’ rest out of tem months of the year. During the tieree heat of summer the public will travel, and the railroad men from the tiny newsboy to the general superintendent, must be at their posts.
Our counsel to bays is, before yuu decide to leave the farm for other work, seek in- furmation, and make as sure 43 you can that you are more fitted for city than for
untry life. To the farmers we would say, if your boys are well treated they walb-re- cognize it; if your boys are overworked, poorly clothed, badly-fed, and boorishly treared, make haste to change and to mend your ways. A bad employer gets an un- willing service. The best tempered boy can be made sullen; the most ambitious can be
discouraged. When a boy is old enongh to work for his father, and when his »work is
satisfactory, he earns his pay as fully as though he was a hired outsider.
Text of the Papal Rescript.
following is the text «f the
The Papal
dk cree :- ‘*Oa several occasions the apostolic See has given the people of Ireland, whom it has
slready regarded with special benevolence, suitable admonition and advice, when circum- stances required as to how they might defend their rights without injury to justice or public peace. Our holy father Leo XIII., fearing iest in the species of warfare that has been introduced amongst the Irish in the contests between landiord and tenant, and which is commonly called the ‘plan of campaign,’ and the kind of sucial interdict call d ‘boycotting,’ arising from the same contests, a true sense of justice and charity might be perverted, order- ed the supreme congregation of the in- quisition to subject the matter toa serious and careful examination. Hence the following was proposed to their emiuences, the cardi- nals of that congregation: Is it permissable in disputes between landlords and _ their
tenants in Ireland to use the means knows as.
‘the plan of campaign’ and ‘boycotting’? Afcer long and mature deliberation, their eminences answered in the negative, and their decision was confirmed by the Holy Father on Wednesday, the 18th of last month. The justice of this decision will be readily seen by any one who applies his mind to consider that arent agreed on by mutual consent cannot, without violation of a coutiact, be diminished
at the mere will of the tenants, = es- pecially when there are tribunals’ ap- poiated for settling such contro-
versies and reduction of unjust rents within the bounds of equity, after taking into ac- count the causes which diminish the value of the land. Neitherecan it«be considered per- missible that rents be extorted frem tenants and deposited in the hands of unknown per- sons to the detriment of land owners. Finally it is contrary to justice and charity tu prose- cute by a social interdict those who are Satis- fied to pay the rents they agreed to pay, or those who, in the exercise of their rights, take vacant farms. It will, therefore, be Your Lordship’s duty, prudently, but effectually, to advise and exhort the clergy and laity not to transgress the bounds of Christian charity ind justice while they are striving for a emedy for their distressed condition.

NOTES AND COMMENTS. Things Said and Done on the Streets and Elsewhere.
Waitt we in Gharlottetown were com-
laining about the few inches of snow on May Day and the cold which accompanied it, the people of Quebec were faring even worse. On the Quebec Central Railway, near St. Henri, the train from Sherbrooke, got snowed up in a huge drift which had accumulated during the night, and try hard has they might theengines could not force their way through. to put back and the passengers had to be driven to Point Levis in vehicles. It is also stated that the May Pole was plant- ed in the ice in some places, but I do not credit the report.
The apology for a barbed wire fence which at present encloses a portion of Market Square, is neither ornamental or Fuseful, but positively dangerous, and should be removed at once, There is but one wire strung at a height of about three feet from the ground, and the just big and sharp enough to severely | injure persons or animals coming in con- tact therewith. The wire cannot be seen bat all after nightfall, and the danger is therefore all the greater. A few nights ago, a young lad, not knowing that the wire had been put up, undertook to take the usual *‘short cut,” but was suddenly brought up by being caught under the chin and having his face badly cut by the sharp barbs. “This is the first accident, but it may not be the last. The authorities should remove the fence at once or they will have an action for damages, on their hands some ot these fine days.
Speaking of nuisances reminds me.of the aceident which befell the countrywoman on Water Street, near Queen, yesterday after- noon, | This woman turned thecornerin a hurry and her foot coming in’ contact with the projecting hinge of a cellar hatch in the néigh borhood, she wis thrown violently on her face. and hands, injuring »herself severely. These hatches, with theirlarge hinges, have long been a nuisance, and I am surprised tliat the authorities did not long ago.insist upon their removal. They will, probably do so after they have been mulcted, in heavy damages for their neglect.
—
There isa very dangerous hole at the crossing on King Street, near the Bishop's Palace, to which I direct the attention of the City Surveyor. This hole has™ been there for a considerable tinvé, and is caused by the earth which covers the sewer leading from the new Post Office. Building to the shore at the foot of Great George Street having tumbled in. Why it has bees allowed to remain in its present dangerous condition is a puzzle to strangers ; but we who are well acynainted with the n asterly inactivity of our civic authorities do not mind it at all. It-will probably be attend- ed to before the summer js Oyer.
I do not hear a word about Queen Square Gardens. Why is this? If we are to have the gardens this summer it is time a move were made to collect funds’ for their main- tenance. The season for commencing work has arrived and. time should be lost. The plants are all ready, Mr. Newbery’ is willing to superintend operations as formerly and all that is necessary is a little push and energy on the part of some of our leading citizens. It would be just like Charlottetown if the work so well begun were allowed to cullapse for want of the
necessary support.
I have beard persons who have had oc- casion to travel by the Northern Light com- plain about the high fare charged, con- sideringthe accommodation affurded. There is something in the complaint, and it is hoped the powers that be will take a step in the direction ot improvement, if we are to have the Northern Light again next year. The fare from Charlottetown to Pictou or vice versa is $3, with $1 for berth and forty cents for ‘breakfast. The saloon is heated by steam and is invariably too warm and cluse. In inclement weather, passengers cannot keep on deck for any length of time and eonsequently must remain in the saloon the greater portiun of the trip, oft- times suffering from headache. The berths are also small, and as there are no lamps therein, disrebing is not attended with a very great amount of comfort. The food furnished, however, is good, and the offli- cers, from the captain down, are as capable as could be got together anywhere. It is not their fault that there is cause for com- plaiat.
As Charlottetown wcmen, at least those of them who'own property, are to vote at future civic elections, the following anec- dote, illustrative of. how the Kansas womap does it, may .not. be out of place: First woman—‘' Were you at the polis yesterday, Minnie?” Second. woman: ‘Oh, yes, I was out at the dear little pulls. Isn't it just too nice to vote?” ‘* Really, dear, | don’t remember.” ‘* Well, you remember that they had two kinds of tickets—white and’ red?” ‘‘Oh, I remember now. It wa the lovely little red ticket that I put in the polls.” ‘*Why, I am surprised; that was the Republican ticket.’”’ ‘** Well, 1 didn’t ask. I saw that the color of the ticket was a delicate red and that it exact- ly matched my dress.”
