Tho New Time Table.

Fox the first time a passenger may travel the whole length of the Railway from Souris to Tignish, and frem Tignish to Souris, or to or from any intermediate station, on the same day. For the first time a passenger may travel from Tignish, or any intermediate station west of Sum- merside, to St. John on the same day. For the first time the public east of Charlolte- town are to receive the railway accommo- dation to which they are entitled.

A passenger leaving Seuris at 6,15 a. m., arrives at Mount Stewart at 8.25; at Roy- alty Junction at 9.38. There he takes the train from Charlottetown at 10.05, arrives at Summerside at 1.50 p. m., at Alberton at 6.40, and at Tignish at 7.40. If he wishes to go to Charlottetown he will arrive at 9.55 a. m. There he may stay all day till 4.30 p. m., and be returned te his home at 8.05 p. m.

A passenger leaving Tignish at 5.15 a. m. may take the steamer at Summerside at 8.45 and go to Shediac and St. John; or he may proceed east—leaving Summerside at 12.40 p.m., arriving at Royalty Junction at 3.50 and at Charlottetown at 4.15. Then, if he wishes to go on to Souris, he leaves Charlottetown at 4.30 p.m., or Royalty Junction at 4.49 p. m., and arrives at his destination at 9.05 p.m. Or, if he desires to stay at Summerside, he can stay there about six hours and return to his home in Tignish in the evening.

Amixed train leaves Charlottetown for Georgetown and Souris at 6.50 every morning, arriving at Georgetown at 10.45 and at Souris at 11.35. This will be a great advantage to business men of the east, for they will get their freight, etc., delivered on the day it is dispatched, and avoid the night work which was before necessitated. A passenger in this train may stay in Souris upwards of three hours, or in Georgetown four hours, and return to Charlottetewn the same evening at 7.40.

Express trains run between Charlotte- town and Summerside—connecting with the steamer at Summerside.

A mixed train leaves Tignish at 6.20 a.m., arrives at Summerside at 12.05 p.m.. and at Charlottetown at 4.15 p.m, It seems strange that two trains should leave Tignish within an hour and five minutes ; and there will doubtless be some complaint on the part of people at the west, on ac- count of the long space of time intervening before the next train leaves. But it is said that if the first train were a mixed one for the accommodation of both passengers and freight, it could not reach Summerside in time to connect with the Shediac steamer, unless it left Tignish at an unduly early hour; and if the last train left Tignish later in the day, it could not make the necessary connections with the eastern trains. It will thus be seen that this vould not very well be avoided.

On the whole, the ‘‘new arrangement” is far the best we have yet had. It gives an opportunity to stay a good while at the principal centres of trade during business . hours. It enables passengers to go over the whole length of the line in aday. A through passage to the mainland is daily afforded those who reside west of Summer- side. Much work that before had to be dene in the dark will now be done by day- light. We congratulate Mr. McNab upon these improvements ; and we feel sure they will be appreciated by the people of the Island.

We hope that as soon as Mr. McNab has made himself sufficiently well «cquainted with the Island, he will devote sou. stten- tion to the improvement of the treight tariff. The present one gives rise toa great deal of complaint ; and we think a tariff might be devised which wonld suit the people better, without materially, or for any length of time, diminishing the re- ceipts. The mistake of the former imaaage- ment was the application of the tariffs of other railways to the entirely different con-

ditions which exist here. ——_ ~+a2a--—___—

QuzEN Vicroria’s youngest son—Prince

Leopold—has proposed marriage to his cousin,

Pringess Marie, ot Hanover.

Instead of the requirement of a five years residence on the part of the voter, and a property qualification of the value of $600 the part of the representative, they

il propose that,—

“The Legislative Council and House of Assembly of this Province shall be abolished from and after the coming into force of this Act.

‘‘In lieu and in place of the said Legislative Council and House of Assembly, there shall be established a Legislative Assembly.

“The said Legislative Assembly shall be composed of twenty-two Members—fifteen of whom shall be elected by the Electoral Dis- tricts of the existing House of Assembly, and so that each District shall elect one repre- sentative instead of two as at present, and seven of whom shall be elected by the Elec- toral Districts of the existing Legislative Council by the voters qualified to vote for Members of the existing Legislative Council, and so that each District shall elect one Mem ber only.”’

In. short, they propose to have a her- maphroditic Legislature, in which seven members shall be of the property-holding gerder and fifteen members of the non- property holding gender !

Now, suppose a question to come up in this Legislature in which the interests of property-holding and non-property classes clash. What would be

Why-—if the premises of those

the holding the result ? who favor this scheme be true--seven re- presentatives would vote for the property holders and fifteen representatives would vote for the non-property holders! The majority would, of course, carry the day. The property holders would be no where !! This is the kind of “ Protection” these ventlemen would afford by a hermaphro- ditic Legislature, such as does not exist in in the world to-day. This is the scheme to protect farmers against their sons, merchants against their clerks and book- keepers, master mechanics against their journeymen and assistants. This is the scheme to place clergymen, schoolmasters—the most intelligent men— everyone above the money grubbing pro- fessions-——under a disability. If it were adopted, the Island would be the laughing stock for the universe. Such a scheme might properly be proposed in Punch or Grip. But, to think of grave legislators entertaining it and pressing for its adop- tion! We-hope our legislative Councillors are not going to make fools of themselves by carrying this matter further. j rittninscehellgs aie aaa Ee

Another Successful Islander.

Tne success which uniformly attends upon young Islanders when they go abroad has, we are pleased to learn, followed the collegiate efforts of our young friend Mr. John A. McKinnon, son of Mr. Daniel McKinnon,of the firm of McKinnon, Fraser & Co. He has been attending Prinity College, Toronto, and he is the winner of the Silver Medal and two honorary cer- tificates for proficiency in the study of medicine and surgery. He came very near obtaining the Gold Medal—a young man who had been much longer at college than he only beating him by a few marks. The percentage made by Mr. McKinnon, in the various subjects connected with the pro- fession, is as follows : -

We have much pleasure in recording this result of Mr. MeKinnon’s labors ; and we wish him every success in the profession he has chosen for his life work. Mr. McKin- nen was a student in the Prince of Wales College.

Kobertson having called here, is now on her way to Souris to load. Whatever speed, consistent with safety, is in the ship, Capt. Ronald McMillan will carefully take out of her :—

Upon the medicinal virtues of Lime Juice and Quinine it is unnecessary to dilate. The combination of two agents of such universally

| acknowledged value, in at ence a palatable and innocuous form, has been a disideratum long sought, but only nowsuccessfully accomplished; for although the 7'onic qualities of Quinine have been popularised in the form of QUININE WINES, it is well known these combinations have been attended with serious evils conse- quent upon the Alcoholic Stimulants they all contain, at once prejudicial to health and de- moralising in their tendency.

Aromatic Montserrat Quinine Cordial is guar- anteed to contain one grain of Quinine in each wineglassful, and to be entirely free from al- cohol, being prepared solely from the Mont- serrat Lime Fruit Juice combined with Aro- matics.
