CURNEW STUDIO,

we would inform them that we have now incressed facilities for the production of first-class work, and are prepared to make Puorograrus of a Slyle and Quality that has never been before allempled in this Vily.

We bave ou exhibition, at our Rooms, a large number of Photograps «f every variety, including the

BEAUTIFUL PHT) - ENAMEL

be most beautiful style of Photograph known, possessing a softness and delicacy of coloring that has never been equalled. This elegant picture has become deservedly popu ar elsewhere, and cannot fail to be- come so here.

Though the finish of our Photographs cannot be excelled, We would direct altten- tion to the beaatitul

Glaece’ Pictures

which we make. They possess a highly enamelled surface, and are practically indes- tructible, und will retain their freshness and beauty for any length of time. If they become soiled they can easily be cleaned, as they will not lose any of their beauty by being wet, ‘This valuable quality, com- bined with their remarkable elegance, Make them very suitable for presents; while the dificuity of their production will prevent thein ever becoming so common as to Jessen their value. Our patrons cau have one or all of their Photos flnished in this style—an advantage which cannot be obtain d elsewhere. :

We give special attention to making Groups of Faunlies, Societies, Schools, &¢ ~ Our pictures of children are sufficient evidence of our success in this difficult branch of our art.

Our *NLARG#MENTS, finished in India Ink, Pastel, Creyon, Oil and Water Colors, have made a favorable reputation for them selves throughout the Lower Provinces.

Parties intending to have Photographs made will flud it to their adyantage to sit early, aS the number of our cu jtome2rs makes some delay in the delivery of the Photos unavoidable. We prefer to have our silters come by appointment, :

Photographs can be obtained for iess money elsewhere : bul in this case We ask that quality be giveu the preference; as- suring tne public that they will tlad our charges very moderate.

A. Plimsoil Bill Wanted. didieas ! To the Editor of tie Daily Examiner :

It is becoming painfully evident that some- | thing should be done in the interest of our sea- faring men. Although last fall was by no | means a stormy one,—the weather being, in | fact, unmarked by any very heavy gales, —the | loss of life along our coast has been unprece- dentedly great. There have been no less than five inquests held within the last few weeks in the eastern part of the Island on bodies washed ashore by the sea. Besides these, it is feared that other poor fellows’ lives have been sacri- ficed. Now, I believe that nine-tenths of the loss of life on this coast is occasioned by the old, rotten, unseaworthy hulks, in which sea- nien are too often forced to risk their lives. A poor man, with a helpless family dependent upon him for support, is often compelled to do what his better judgement teils him is franght with daagers seen and unseen. It is certainly right that the strong arm of the Law should be used 12 protecting individuals from evils which they of themselves are powerless to avert. We want a law on our Island Statute Book similar to that introduced by Mr. Plimsoll in the English Parliament. Here old hulks are sent to sea quite regardless of the lives of our brave sailormen. Not so, now, in England. ‘There, ships and the smaller crafts alike have to -ome up to the requirements of the law both in re- gard to seaworthiness and kind and quantity of cargo. Will not some philanthropic Island Piimsoll take the matter in hand at the next sitting of Parliament ? There are scores of old rotten worm-eaten crafts, appropriately called _ Sea coftins,” drifting around our shores every fall, that ought to be condemned and burned in the interest of suffering humanity. I remain, yours, &c., ONE OF THE PEOPLE. King’s County, Jan. 1, 1878;

Canadian Produce in Buropean

Markets.

A Pamphlet setting forth the merits of Canada as a source of supply for the horses, cattle, sheep, pigs, and poultry so much in demand in Kngland has been issued from the Canadian Emigration Agency in Lon- don. It contains a great many facts re- specting the Government, education facili- ties, and natural resources of the country, an also respecting the trade in eggs, dairy ‘products, grain and fruit, which are all pro- duced here of the highest excell-nce. Special prominence is giving to the recently estab- lished but rapidly developing live stock trade in horses and cattle, the English far- mers being reminded that as experience has shown their Can¥¥ian rivals can compete successfully with them in their own home market. Canadian horses are spoken of as meeting with a peculiarly favourable recep- tion, and as eminently adapted for military and hunting purposes. The pamphlet does not, like many emigration brochures, err in the direction of —_—oe

Se alaennilbas The Outlook for British Trade.

The London Times, in forecasting the commercial and business situation, says :— ‘“‘ We retain, absolutely if not relatively, allour former advantages, and, as soon as peace is re-established and the excess of manufactured goods now existing has been cleared away, there can be no doubt that we shall once more enjoy our full share of the world’s prosperity. Much of the com- petition against which we have ta contend ls even now spasmodic and self-destructive; and, when some cf our rivalsjhave ruined each other in their determination to under- sell us, we shall still possess the capital, the knowledge, and the energy which helped to give us our old pre-eminence, and these will have ample scope under a constitution which combines the most absolute stability with the largest possible measure of indi- vidnal freedom. The only shadow in our path is that increased luxury of living, in al! classes, which militates so powerfully against the accumulation of wealth by savy- fng; and it is much to be wished that those winong us whose acts are accepted as ex- amples would serious!y consider whether it

PY A Result of the Fishery Award."

** Tt is evident that our Dominion neighe bors have still in view the piwpose of usin their fishery claims to cosrce the United States into a Reciprocity Treaty, which is 80 very smportaat to them. One need not be a very close observer to notice that the result of the Fishery Commission and. the discussion of further claims by Dominion journals wlll no: haye a tendency to put the Yankee mind in. a condition to appreciate any further reciprocal relations with the Provinces. They are a little too clever for even the Yankee, and their anxiety for re- ciprocity will make the people on ‘this side a little suspicious. In other words, the award has postponed reciprocity.” — Boston Journal.

The Journal is putting the coercion boot vn the wrong leg; and it credits the Cana. dians with a sharpness. not possessed by them and not admired by them in anybody. Canada has won a most desirable reputation for good faith and honest conduct. No- body suspects her of an intention or desire to shirk her obligations, in any direction. Her creditors in “Exrope have perfect con- fidence in her determination to meet all fmancial claims upon her, even to the uttermost farthing. The red men of this Continent, from the Arctic Circle to the Rio Grande, have equal confidence in her inviolate good faith in the maintenance of treaties. The confidence in both cases has been well earned. The Journal may be assured that Canada proposes to maintain her character for good faith and fair deal- ing in all her transactions with the United States, reciprocity or no reciprocity.— St. John News,

England’s Duty.

_——

A remarkable article recently appeared in the ‘* Pall Mall Gazette,” which is agitating the people and the Press of Europe. It is entitled, ‘‘The Prospects Abroad,” and runs as follows :—‘‘ The outlook abroad is not improved, and the news contained in to-days papers is calculated to increase the uneasiness which has long afflicted the soberest minds. Nothing now remains to counterbalance the prevalent anxiety. It is most unusual to hold Cabinet Councils dur- ing Christmas week. That held yesterday was hastily summoned. Why it was called is best answered by reference to the news of the morning. From. St. Petersburg, Vi- enna, and other quarters, come reports of a most disquieting nature, regarding the armed attitude of Russia. But this arma- ment is not in Russia alone, as we shall soon show.” The article then refers to Germany's armament, and concludes as fol- lows :—‘* Surely it cannot be denied that there issscarcely anation in Europe, great or: small, that is net concerned in these dark and anxious troubles, or which at any moment may not find itself deeply inter- ested. That England isin this condition is a matter of absolute certainty ; yet every day sermons are addressed to the Govern- ment, fofbidding them to see, or say they see, any danger, and threatening them with the wrath of God and of mankind, if they dare to make the least psovision against perils clearly before their eyes. But, un- less all Europe lies under a illusion, and only the friends of Russia in England are wise, it would ,be -mere» imbecility on the part of the Government, if, like no other Kuropean Ministry, they take no thought ior the armament of the nation. It may be that the signs and tokens of to-day belie the condition of affairs. It may be that yes- terday s Cabinet meeting had good and bad news before it, but, unless there is really a break in the sky, it would be the merest folly for a rich nation like this, with so many interests to protect, to make no prep- arations for a storm.”
