‘he result now being apparent, Mr. Blaiue has submitted with the best pos- sihle grace ; and the people of the United States will, no doubt, show their practi- cal wisdom, by at once “settling down to business.”

By the way, this rapid succession of elections is very bad for business. If the turmoil of elections took place every ten years,avud were made co-incident i with the wave of depression which it is

said comes along every decade, the

at country would be the better off; and with a au well defined impeachment law, the

wt Presideat would not dare to be guilty of very bad acts, however long his term may be.

consequently making it,rather hazardous for the attendants in cases of this kind. Why should insane asylums be a place of amuse- ment? TheP. E. I. asylum is visited generally by persons who have no other de- sire than YU SATISFY A MORBID CURIOSITY,

and as a result has no goed influence on themselves and a bad one on the inmates, besides being the cause of making some cf the patients who have some realization of their condition, feel, to say the least, un-

comfortable. The excuse that it is neces- sary to insure good management to have

such institutions easy of aceese to the puab- lic is, some think, a mistaken idea. The public see nothing of the discipline, some means that are necessarily severe, and if there should be abuses they would not be cognizant of the same. The practice of making a spectacls of the insane should be stopped,

The colonial building is a very tine struc- ture, nore interesting than imposing.

SOMETHING THE NATURE OF A RELIC,

The assembly was not in session. I looked into the chambers, rather oid-fashioned, aud smelt like the hest yoom of a country

house that had not been opened for a rq = e 5

year. The library is the most pleasant

room jn the building, with a good selection

of books, also a number of curiosities.

{ visited the Court House; the County Court was in session. The judge and lawyers wore silk gowns; the defenaant handied his own case. I have heard of western trials, and this came very near th: description of sueh court scenes as they have in ‘‘Arkansaw,” the oniy materials in addition necessary to make up a tral, such as Bret Harte described, being red shirts, revolvers, bowie knives, and four or five pounds of tobacco.

The market is a very interesting and busy place. Tuesdays and Fridays being the days devoted to trading. The lower floor of the building is occupied by the butchers who sell eut pieces of meat. On the second floor the wonien sell butter, eggs, fruits and vegetables of all kinds, besides fancy goods and knick-knacks. Sometimes as many as 200 women are selling goods. They pay, | understand, tweity five cents a day for the privilege of using a certain amount of counter room, Outside the market on the equare you find hay, car- casses of beef and mutton, potatoes, fish and live stuck. Kvery one goes to market, from the

‘‘HIGH TONED” TO THE ‘‘PLEBS.” There is not much wrapping paper used tnere. If a person bas no basket he takes his ish Ly the tail, or the quarter of mutton by the leg and walks off with it; this appears to excite noremark, The market 1s probably one of the most enter- tating features of the town, pariicularly to one unaccustoimed to see business dune in that way. Idid not yisit the poor house, J thought it would be necessary at one time. There are a number of news- pspers prinied on the Island, ten or eleven. In the United States, when a man is anxious to have his past record shown up he runs for president; on the Island they run a newspaper. I would rather run for the presidency.

Au old cusiom in connection with their watchmau regulaiions is the eailing of the hour st night, with information that ‘‘all’s well.”

By the way, it is remarkable the small pumber of men on the pelice force for the size of the town.

The peopie buy dyinking water there. For that reason the Sevtt Act advocates sliould not be surprised at the smail majer- ity received. A number of the boys are ‘ov a keg” (sworn off). Nothing

so as to cause a stringency in the market. | vi erheard a girl going west say to a com- panion that she thought the price of a cup of tea sold on the boat exorbitant, and the quantity small for the amount asked. “Why,” she said, ‘‘they could come up our way and stopa week for ten cents.” I tried to find out where she lived; I will not tell; the Island would become too popular. If you want to put in a few weeks to ad- vantage in the summer, go to the ‘‘garden of British North America.” Yon will be well repaid, you have the best air—some days are perfect; a fine country and people, al- though the latter may fancy the sun rises ot Souris and sets in the neighborhood of Tignish.

The Pictou Drowning Accident

A correspondent of the Halifax Herald furnishes the followiug particulars: ‘* About half-past three o'clock the lifeboat, with the wreckers, elevex in all, left the Inveralt for the island. The wind blowing a heavy gale from the north-west, they were afraid to remain on the steamer, The boat got into the breakers, upset, and was righted three times, filling with water. William Allard left the shore in a small dory to go to their rescue, but he could not reach them, and his boat passing by ina very heavy sea, he probably was lost before he reached land. Capt. James Currie, an old seaman, saw them from the shore, and with a boy's assistance got the captain’s gig ready and went out. When within half gun- shot of the lifeboat he wheeled his poat around head to windward, came down stern first on them,thus giving all a chance. Heory Browo, the superintendent, Pierre LeChance and Narcisus Paradis got in. Laurence was within a hand’s reach of the boat, but was too far gone to take hold. He and two hodies were all Captain Currie saw. The wind and sea got him to leeward of them and they could do no more. They kept their boat as near to the island as possible; but the boat filled and the men were unable to do anything to help Curris. James Hogg and two others then left the shore in a four-oared boat. The survivors were taken on this boat, the other boar besng allowed to go adrift, and made for Pictou, which ihey reached with great difficulty, having to bail out water all the way.”

FRIGHTFUL MASSACRE IN A BURMESE JAii.

Details have been received of the massa- cres in the jailat Mandalay, by which, it is sald, over 300 men and wemen lwst their lives It appears that the King had given orders that sume half di zen famous dacuits, or gang-robbers, confined in the jail, should be executed. The men, hearing this, at- tempted to escape, when the Royal troops surrounded the prigon, shooting dowa every one wiio attempted to get out. Nat content with this, and as the majority of the prisoners preferred to remain iwside rather than run the risk of being shot down, the King’s Ministeis gave orders to set fire to one evd of the jail,

Tue miserable wretches confined in jail had ouly two courses lett to them, one of which was to be burned alive and the other to run into the hands cf the troops. They chose the jlatter, and were shot down or hacked to pieces indiscriminately with- out reference to sex orage. The scene was awful in the extreme, and the screams of the poor wretches, who, in their endeavors to eacape the fire found themselves face to face with their butchers, were fearful. Among the slain were two Royal princes and a famous dacoit, who some time ago was liberated from prison on account of his skill and pluck to go and fight the Shans,

but was reincarcerated because he went pillaging on his own account. After the prisoners had all been disposed of, the troops, excited to madness

and thirsting for blood, attacked numbers of peaceable inhabitants, and altogether Mandalay was in a most terrible state. The heads of many of the slain prisoners were stuck on bamboos and paraded about the streets, while the bodies were allowed to rot for two or three days, and then were carted away to the cemetery, where they were buried four or five together in a common grave oply a foot deep, The King and Queen meantime were, it is said,

well pleased with the work of blood, and |
