Corressondence,

aw Wedonot hold ourselves responsible for the statements or opinions of our correspondents.

To the Editor of the Examiner.

Dear Srr,—-Mr. Heartz’s communications, on subjects with which he has a thoroughly practical knowledge, have drawn upon him the fire of sundry Lillipution masked batteries. Like all antagonists who cannot meet tieir opponents with fair and equal arguments, they can only make an assault with hifalutin and attempted ridicule. Mr. Heartz evidently knows what he writes about, and it will re- quire something more to the point than ridi- cule to shake him out of his shoes.

A spurt in Rotchford’s Daily reminds the writer of the reputed action of the heron, when singled out as game by the falcon. The affrighted bird at once essays his flight to- wards the zenith, having arrived at an alti- tude jhe had never betore reached, and is, from his peculiar conformation, unable to sus- tain—down- down he comes, closely followed by his relentless foe. The poor heron attempt- ed the flight of the eagle, but falls again to earth with the thud of a camel.

Let Mr. Heartz’s opponents meet him with argument, If they think the Asylum founda- tion a first-class job, let them bring forward proof that ivis so. Sneers and inuendos are only so much chaff, and, in the minds of dis- interested men, only strengthen Mr. Heartz’s condemnation of jobbery. A host of such erratic scribblers could not turn the position behind which Mr. Heartz has entrenched him- self. Yours, f'AIRPLAY,

May 30, 1875. To the Editor of the Lxeaminer :

Srr,—It must afford great pleasure to many of your readers to iind we have at least one plain-dealing, outspoken man amongst us. We see so much trimming, and backing, and filling, that anything carrying downright hon- esty on the face of it is really refreshing. Now, Mr. Heartz’s correspondence has got the right ring in it. A spade he calls a spade; and when he sees what he conceives to be a wrong to the working man, he must be conceded the merit of denouncing the wrong in language that cannot be misunderstood. And it would be well for this hampered community if we oould boast having many more men of Mr. C Heartz’s fearless, manly, and upright stamp ; his views on political economy may appear somewhat mes and illogical. But when he sees the claims of our tradesmen and laborers ignored, and the privileges and profits their birthright should entitle them to, handed over to strangers, it seems no way strange that he should indignantly utter his protest against it.

It is an easy matter for Editors, when com- fortably installed in their easy chair, to give vent to their lamentations that our young men should be compelled to seek for employment and expend their energy abroad. But what inducement have they to cling to a country where their claims are so obnoxiously over- looked. Our Island for Islanders seems exe cellent in theory; but in practice it may he re- gretted as a miserable failure.

It would require a big pile of logic to per- suade a hungry and ill-used man that patience is a virtue; and that it is his duty to stand silently by and see the bread he is willing and able to earn, passing from the hands of those he has been led to ‘believe were his friends, into the hand of strangers. Let Dominion contracts, by all means, be open for Dominion competition. But when our rulers have de- cided on the erection of local public works, the men who directly bear the public burdens should be the first to reap any accruing bene- fit. Doubtless there are many in our midst | who see and deplore the evil, but are afraid

_their outspoken opinion on the matter might embarass the existing Government. To the winds with any Government that overlooks and neglects the interests of their own people. In conclusion, we may express the hope that Mr. Heartz will continue to give expression to his honest opinion on any other subject bear- ing on the material prosperity of this commu- nity. Yours, etc.,

Our Washington Letter

WASEINGTON, D. C., May 28, 1878.

For a fortnight very little has been done

in the House of Representatives aside from the wranglings over the electoral fraud busi- ness, Which infectious and disturbing pool of iniquity may now be considered really opened again. The Committee of Investi- gation having been appointed, the House has been endeavoring to turn its attention to other matters; but little interest is felt or will be till that troublesome matter is disposed of. ” From all that General Grant writes home it would appear that no political thought or interest has a place in his mind. He has gone abroad to ‘“‘see the elephants” and to be made a lion of, and that he is heartily enjoying. He ought to be thankful to be out of the disquieting and childish political broil that is existing here now. His old Ohio soldiers sent him an invitation to at- tend their reunion of veterans at Newark, on the 22d of July, and in his reply he says): ‘* But the Atlantic will be between us at the time of your proposed reunion. This is the first opportunity of my life to visit Europe, and will likely be my last. There is much here to see which I have not seen, and I desire to remain to partly accomplish the tour I had marked out for myself.”

Decoration Day is at hand, and the usual extensive preparations are being made for its celebration. Arlington is the principal point of interest, of course, with its 16,000 buried soldiers. An enclosure and stand is built there for the annual memorial ser- vices, which consists of an oration, poem, music and decoration of graves. There are three other Soldiers’ Cemeteries in the Dis- trict, where service will be held, anda Committee is also appointed to place flow- ers on and about the monuments to heroes throughout the city.

The unsteadiness the present Adminis- tration has manifested, and the constant whiffling about of the great Government machine for the past year, when it needed, for the sake of the suffering country, to stand firmegst and staunchest, has led people to wish for the strong and_ steady hand of the ‘‘ man on horseback’”’ again—the hand that governed and held firm—whatever mistakes or wrong guidings it was guilty of.

Quite a large number of herring were eaught in Launching Bay during the past week. One boat reports having succeeded in taking about two hundred barrels with- in the time already mentioned. Accounts of this nature must be gratifying; and shonld the good news continue to reach us, the result will be still more pleasing. It is pretty certaim that the herring fishery at the Magdalenes is a positive failure this year, and in consequence of this the de- mand for herring, which is commonly used for bait in mackerel fishing, must be very

great. This is the general opinion at pre- sent, and until correct returns are re-

ceived from the fleet that went to Anti- costi in search of herring, there will be very little alteration in this opinion. It is a great pity that many more of our enter- prising men were not in a position to take advantage of such a splendid opportunity of making large profits. Those who were from this quarter through the week speak very favorably of what has been done and the chances of doing a good season’s work. The prospect of a remunerative summer's work at codfishing, is far better than usual. Competent judges have stated that there is a far better outlook ahead at present than has been for the last fifteen years. Nu- merous parties have taken very large hauls within the last few days at many points along the coast. Should the demand be good, and we hope it may, we may safely bespeak a prosperous year’s work fer our fishermen. — Adv. ———_>ec-

Judge R., in going to the Western circuit had a great stone thrown at him, which, as he happened to stoop at the instant, passed clear over his head. ‘* You see,” he said to the frieads who congratulated him on his escape, ‘** you see, if 1 had been an upright judge I had been slain.”

An enthusiastic Indiana editor wrote : ‘‘The battle is now opened.” But, alas! the intel- ligent compositor spelled *‘ battle” with an ‘-o,” and his readers say they have suspected it all along.

Brown's wife went to the dentist’s lately and took gas. The new set of teeth is not ready, nor is she ready ; and so there has been peace in the Brown family for several days. As Brown joyfully remarked, ‘‘ Her mouth is closed for repairs.”

At one of the schools in Cornwall, England, the inspector asked the children if they could quote any text of Scripture which forbade a man having two wives, One fof the children sagely quoted in reply the text, *‘No man can serve two raasters.”

‘Doctor, what is the cause of this rush of blood to my head?’ ‘£ffort of nature, mad- am. It abhors a vacuum,”

it is said that eating onions will prevent the lips from chapping. 1t will certainly keep the chaps from gurls’ ioe.
