Reciprocity vs. Free Trade.

The Minister of Agriculture of the Govy- vernment of Canada, it will be remember- ed, caused a number of delegates represent- ing Tenant Farmers in the United King- dom, to be invited to visit Canada last autumn, for the purpose of examining its resources and reporting on its suitability as These gentlemen were clearly informed, it was of all things

a place for settlement.

desired that their own judgemeut should be freely exercised and entirely unfettered. One ef their number, Robert Wallace, the Nithsdale delevate, at the conclusion of a highly interesting Report speaks as follows under the heading of Reciprocity v Free Trade. Wesimply recommend his remarks on this subject to the careful and unpreja diced consideration of intelligent througout the Dominion :

tcp

men

he people of Canada having at last found out that a system of one sided free trade is a delusion and snare, put in a Goy- ernment pledged te adopt what is called the national pelicy,” which is simply this : they want free trade on equal terms, but if other countries will not grant it, they must put ona tariff England and America are the countries that trade most largely with Canada, and the American tariff demands that something must be done. It would be impossible to give England free trade and put a duty on Americans goods, while her ports were open to those same goods free, consequently a tariff has to be adopted all round. Should England adopt a policy of ‘‘ reciprocity,” which she will have to do sooner or later, and the sooner the better for herself, she would at once get free trade with Canada. So anxions is the Canadian Government that there should be no difliculty er delay about this, they have it arranged that an Order in Council is sufticient to grant it. It would never do for England to go back to ‘‘pro- tection” for protection’s sake, but the time is net far distant when she will have ié employ protection, as jt is called, asthe power whereby to bring about a general free trade, which we all so much long for. The ene-sided plan has got a fair trial, and so far as we are concerned, powerful as we are, has miserably failed. Our opponents, the Americans, who took the other way of it, were the last to succumb when bad times came, and are now the first to take thelead on the advent of better things. Upwards 40 million pounds worth of manufactured goods are imported into Great Britain in a year, andin spite of the reduced price through depression of trade, the increase has been over 20 per cent. within the last ten years. These must consist either of luxuries or goods which could be manufac- tured at home. Suppose half the value due

_lto the work expended, and that our work-

men had dene it, the country would have been 20 millions richer in one year, and thousands of families that are this day star- ving would have an abundance. We must have grain stuffs free, but Great Britain should impose a heavy duty upon manufac- tured goods and live cattle from every country that wiil not give ua free trade ; then she would be in a position to say to our neighbours of the United States—and itis they who so obligingly manufacture for both of us—‘‘ As soou as you give us free trade, we shal! return the compli- ment.” The movements already made with regard te Canada show how seon they would come round to our way of thinking ; then in place of our own manufacturers going over to America and _ starting factor- ies, as Messrs. J. and P. Coates, thread manufacturers, and many more were forced to do, employing American workmen, we should have the work done in this country with our own subjects, now in a state of starvation. The glory of Britain has been in her manufacturing industries, but if she drifts into being a consuming centre, as her present commercial policy encourages her to do, in place of a manufacturing and supplying one, her day is done. Britain, having free trade with her colonies, and doing by others in this matter as they do by her, would yet lead the world, but it is questionable how long she may hold the first place by following her present plan.” . Oe Notes from North Rustico.

The people around here are ail busily en- gaged harvesting. he early wheat appears to be very good.

The fishing has been quite a success un- til last week, when the catches were small and mackerel lower in prices,

Considerable damage was done by the gale of Saturday blowing down the orna-

imental trees in front of the King’s Palace.

Diphtheria is very bad in these parts, but by applying honey well te the throat it is fast disappearing.

There isa monthly male kept running between the south side of the Island and here. His stopping place is the hospital. One of the inmates appear to have quite recovered from her shock of two years ago, which is a great ease to Drs. K. and Mac. Long may it continue to run, providing they carry their own svap and towel.

Rev. Mr. Archibrid is largely appreciated here.

Correspondence.

ae” We do not hold ourselves responsible for he statements or opinions of our correspondents,

To the Editor of the Examiner.

Dear Srr,—Will you . favor us with a little space for the insertion of the following brief article :—

Some time since you were kind enough to publish a letter from ns, having reference to Mr. H. as a preacher; we now desire to speak of him as a defender of the truth.

For two or three Sundays Summerside has been besieged by a Universalist, pro- fessing tobe a preacher, though his style, manner and inane utterances have led some to the conclusion that this profession must be like the assertions he makes— question- able! This gentleman has been alternately asserting and denying, until at length even his most ardent admirers fail to understand what he does believe. In his first Lee- ture (/) he denied the Divinity of Jesus Christ, consequently the Trinity and Eter- nal Soulship. The Atonement and Fall were also excluded from his creed. On these five contested pomts Mr. H. took him up on the succeeding Sabbath.

His utterances on this occasion produced & threcfold effect ; viz., Convincing his hearers from Scripture that these doctrines form part of God’s revelation to man. Exposing the absurdity of his opponent’s remarks, and the fallacy of his assertions, and thirdly, enraging the lecturer. This last mentioned effect was demonstrated on Sunday afternoon, when Mr. Reid, failing to answer Dr. H’s arguments, did the best he could by ridiculing and abnsing cem- mon orthodoxy, and Mr. H. as its repre- sentative. However, in the evening, a crowded audience flocked to hear Mr. H., thus expressing their sympathy for him, respect for his teaching, and loyalty to their Bible.

The subject of the evening’s discou was ‘* What shall the end be of those that obey not the Gospel of God?’ In answer to this question the Evangelist replied ‘* Everlasting punishment.” In substan- liating this assertion, Mr. H. manifested great research into ancient and modern literature, displaying the most intimate acquaintance with the mythology and gen- eral religious writings vf the ancients, and the more medern philosophy of the Greeks,

Those who heard this young man quoting from the teachings of Zoroaster, Buddha, Piato, and all the earliest religious and superstitious writings, could not but com- pare his discourse, pregnant with wisdom and stored with argument, with the child- ish babble and ribaldry of the Univ ersalist aggresser.

He then appealed to the universal con- sciousness of man with referenee to this sub- ject, and alse to his convictions on carefully perusing the suspired Revelation. He then arrayed the Old and New Testament against this ‘‘development of modern thought,” and thus without condescending to his opponents weapons of abuse, and iow yitn- perstion, he manfully, and eloquently, de- fended the truth, for which defence, he merits and receives, the thanks of all ortho- dex denominations in this town.

We will close this brief article by saying; this feeble opposition Mr. Hinson has en- countered, has manifested to his fellows the great power he possesses as a defender, and expounder of the Bible.

For a full hour last evening he combatted this Universalist theory, retaining te the close the attention of the large and aopre- ciative audience, who weekly assemble to hear him.

Asking you to insert this short communi- cation at your earliest convenience, we are dear sir, Yours very truly,

(From the Monetary Times)

Over 100 reapers have been sent from Toronte to Ireland by the Toronto Reaper & Mower Company. The first one was in- troduced by Mr. Glover Harrison, of the China Hall.

Montreal harbor presents a scene of more than ordinary activity ; seme sixty-five sea- geing vessels, besides the usual complement of river craft, lie at the wharves busily dis- charging or loading. At the same date last year there were forty-seven vessels in port, showing a gratifying increase of eighteen,

The figures relating to the shipments of live steck from Montreal for May, June and July, have just been published, and show that ever 70,000 head of all kinds have ieft that port this season. The proportions are as follows, cattle 21,627 head, sheep 48,355 swine 575 head. These figures show an increase over last year, of nearly 100 per cent., in the shipments of cattle, about 35 per cent., in those of sheep, while there has been a falling off in the shipments of swine.

The Nova Scotia iron has been tested in the Western States, and has given marked satisfaction. We learn that the agent of the Steel Company of Canada, at London- derry, N. S., sold, during the “boom” in prices, a quantity in Chicago and other cities, forghe use of car wheel works and machine shops, the prices prevailing in the American markets during the periods indi- cated permitting our iron to enter and pay the heavy duty. So highly were its purcha- sers pleased with the quality of the iron, that they would willingly contract for quantities of it if the price could now be placed at a figure to admit of its importa-

| tion inte the States.
