New Rolling Stock tor the P. E. Isiand Railway. WORK SECURED

FOR ISLAND MECHANICS,

Hap the case referred to in the Patriot's leader, yesterday, been put up to tender, as at first proposed, it is rather more than | probable the contract would have been secured by some of the extensive car Luild- ing establishments im other parts of the Dominion which are already provided with all the facilities and materials required in the construction of cars

The order for the construction of thes ears has not, as the Patrivt more than in tinnates, been countermanded.

It is but two days since the appropriation for their construction became available; and already twelve or fifteen Isianc mechanics have been employed, and frames for the firet five are well under way

All the lumber for the whole lot is now on yand, seasoned, in the Railway lumber yard; aud, with the exception of the oak, which was not to be had here, it was ali procured by tender on the Island. Wheels, axles, and springs for twenty-five cars are on hand, and the balance required tendered for. Al! castings required wiil be prevailed in Charlottetown.

It has also been suggested to us that ons cannot always hardly, perhaps, tell much about the opinienms of Railway Superin But it ts sufficient, in this case, to say that during the past year there have been bmlt at the Railway works, by Island mechanics, under Mr. Archibald’s direc- tions, some twelve or fifteen box and fla cars, which are as good as any on any rail road, broad or narrow gauge, on this con- tinent

It will now be in order for the Patriot t tell us what Messrs Brydges aud McKech nies opinion of Island mechanies was when they built at Moncton, in 1876, some fifty seven cars for this road, out of second hand materia], resulting from the change of gauge on the Intercolonial, and why 1 did not occur to the Patriot to sympathise with the Island mechanics at that time |

We feel sure the Putriot will also be pleased to learn that every mechanic in the Railway employ, at the present time, is in receipt of higher wages than when under the late Governinent.

The Baiiot Deprivation Question.

We, im this Province prefer open voting. as the more manly and more moral method; and we choose not to incur the expense every year of cestly electoral lists. We have a perfect right to do this; and we have nothing whatever to do with the conduct of Dominion elections.

Yet the Patriot charges the Local Gov- ernment with being the cause of the want of ballot papers at Eldon and elsewhere.

The Patriot quotes the 4th sub-section of the 28th section of the Dominion Election

*,. which provides that, —

hall be the duty of the Returning furnish to each Deputy Returning ~th-ient number of ballot paper> tame description, and as .<e) to supply the number ae list of each polling district.” as

»* Local Government, knowing that ‘s the requirement of the Dominiov ettion Law, put it out of the power of the Returring Officer to supply his Deputy wiih voters’ lists, and also took from the Keturn- ing Officer himself the enly means known to the Dominion Law of deciding how many bal-

lot papers to send to each polling place.”

Strange (isn’t it /) that in searching for ‘the 4th sub-section of the 28th section,” the editor of the Patriot had not dis- eovered the 11th section of the Act, which

provides against the very contingency which arose in this Province. Here it is :—

**The Returning Officer shall ascertain from the lists of voters, which. under the provisions of this Act, are to be used at the election, and, in Electoral Districts where there are voters entitled to vote, but there are no lists of voters, From auch other infor mation as may be within his reach—the namber of, or probable number of persons qualitied to vote in each city, town, ward, parish, township, loca) municipality or other locality, where voters are so entitied to vote; and if such city, town, ward, parish, township, local municipality or other locality hes not been constitut d or sub- divided for electoral purposes inte polling dis- tricts by the Legislature, or by the local authorities under the legislation of the Prov. ince wherein such electoral district is situate, or where such subdivision comprises more thar: three hundred voters, he sha! constitute or subdivide the said city, town, ward, parish, township, local muntcipality or other locahty or subdivisi« n, into polling districts in a con- venient manner, so that there shall be at ‘east or j Ali me di trict for ere ry iro h undred voters: and he shail also fix a polling station in a central and convenient place in each polling district; and the Returning Officer may in his discretion grant such additional pulling places in such polling districts as the extent of the district and the remoteness of any body of its voters frem the polling place may render necessary, although the voters thereof may be less than the number above specified.”

Who will dare say, after this, that the editor of the Patriot does not scruple to} suppress the who/e truth where it suits him to do go ?/

This section shows clearly the duty of the Returning Officer; and in the poll books of the recent local election there was placed within his reach the very information he is required by the law to obtain.

An Unfounded Charge.

}

Tue article in the Patriot, headed “‘ The Partisan Council,” is, we are assured, without a tittle of truth. McDougall and King were not policemen ; but only acting temporarily. Councillor Chappelle did not solicit the vote of any one on the force.

It was generally understood that King voted for the Government candidates. Me- Dougaill’s political leanings were unknown.

Councillor Chappelle assures us that he never had any conversation, political or otherwise, with McDougall. The assertion that none but ‘‘ Tories’ are employed to perform city work is also a fabrication. Some prominent city officials voted and} worked against the Goveroment candidates; | and at least two of the three newly ap- | pointed policemen are Grits. Therefore, |

| (From the. Patriet, with the proper appli-

cations.)

We are surprised that Dr. Robertson, (M.P.P.) is not too much of a man, is not too high spivited, to be a party toa con- temptable trick, devised by the Grit law- yerlings of Charlottetown, to eodeavor to take a seat for which under the law he s clearly not eligible ;—especially when ne knows that he would never have

jobtained his majority of 6) votes if the

electors had not been misled and deceived as to the true position he occupies. Why does he not, now that the law has been clearly explained to him, submit to the aw. To see him try, by illegitimate means, to sneak into a seat for which he is legitimately ineligible, must be most humiliating to anyone who ever formed a good opinion of him. The nullity of his election is a matter that there can be na dispute about. Dr Robertson owes it to himself and to his friends to make it known that he was not a party to the trick oy which it was hoped Messrs. Perry and Rebertson could contest the Dominion election and stiil, in direct opposition and violation of the law, remain members of the Local Honse of Assembly.

To Shippers.

The following circular has been issued :— ‘* Boston, June 2d, 1582.

Dear Str,—We beg to call your attention to the fact, that by the Keguiations of the United States Custom House, uo goods from foreigm ports are allowed to be entered or

elivered to conisgnees until bills of lading are produced.

In sases where merchandize ts consigned to order, two copies of bili of lading must be sent to consiguees, one for use at the Custom House snd the other fo. the agent of steamer.

We call your attention to the above facts, ‘Sin the past, either through carelessness or ignorance, shippers in several instances have suffered serious inconvenience and losa, by net omplying therewith. Yours, very truly,

Found Dead. AN INSANE MAN ESCAPES FROM THE LUNATIC ASYLUM, AND IS FOUND DEAD IN THE WOODS OFF NORTH RIVER ROAD.

TEN or eleven days ago, alunatic named Peter Oliver escaped from Falconwood Asylum. He wandered through the dif- ‘erent groves in the Royalty during the disagreeable weather last week, and, it is supposed, met his death from exposure and starvation. His body was, yesterday, at 5 o'clock, discovered by Mr. Dickieson, milkman, in a grove on the ‘* Swabey F«rm,” North River Road. Mr. Dickieson informed the Police of the discovery, and they had the body removed to the Poor House, where it was to-day viewed by the Corover’s Jury who will hold a» inquest this afternoon. A post mortem examination was held by Dr. Conroy who will give evidence at the inquest.

The deceased appears to be a man of sixty years of age. He has been a year or more in the Asylum, and, we learn, was pronounced to be a quiet untroublesome vatient. The result of the Corouer’s in- quest will appear to-morrow.

The Egyptian Army.

Should the British Government find it expedient to despatch an army of 20,000 men to Egypt to restore order among the rebellious soldiers of the Khedive, that foree could prove more than a match for the Egyptian army as itis at present or- ganized. Thelast Khedive, Ismail Pasha, though under obligations to limit his army to 30,006 men, had an effective force of 180,000 men, well armed, well equipped, fairly trained, and fairly officered—an army superior in every respect to that of Turkey. The Egyptian contingent during the Russo- Turkish war showed marked superiority in equipment to the Turkish troops, and did not disgrace itself inaction. But in 1878 the fieancia) rottenness of Egypt involved reductions in the army, ani in 1880 the numerical limit was fixed at 18,000 men, a portion of which are stationed in Upper Egypt, and cannot be counted upon for use in Egypt proper. Large numbers of officers have been discharged, among them the Euro- peans and Americans, who had always been on good terms with the native regimental ofticers, though they were cold shouldered by the bigher Turkish and Circassian offi- cers inthe army. The number of men at present under arms in Egypt proper is esti- mated at 8,000 infantry, 1,000 cavalry, and 1,000 artillery. The troops have for some years been regarded by Europeans critics ag well trained, the drill being mainiy Prussian. while the Remington rifle and Krupp field gun leave little to be desired in point of armament. General Stone, how- ever, who has served in the Khedive’s army for more than twelve years, says :- - ‘** The common soldiers possess a}] possible military virtues with the single exception

of bravery.” -_>o-m +

New Grand Excursion Route.

(From Portland Daily Press, June 29.)

The fine side wheel steamer ‘* Admiral’ has been secured to run the coming season hetween Eastport, Bar Harbor, Campo- bello, and Grand Menan in connection with the steamers of the Iutercolonial Steam- ship Company.

This offers a very tempting trip and all tourists will desire to visit the new eastern summer resort Campobello, and Grand Menan, which it is admitted has the most magnificent scenery on the coast. It is only 18 miles from Eastport and has never till this season had good steam communica tion with the mainland.

The ‘‘ Admiral” is a first class sea going steamer of about 600 tons and well fitted for the route. She was finely furnished and fitted up by Gen. Butterfield for Gen. Grant’s trip to Cuba, and will be found, we are assured, in every respect comfort- able and safe.
