The New Time Table.
By reference to the winter arrange ment forthe running of trains on the Prince Edward Island Railway, to be found in another column, it will be seen that a vew departure has been taken, so | far at least as the runviog of the Tignuish | train is concerned. In other years, a cause for complaint on the part of) through passengers from Tiguish, Alber- ton and other western points, was the length of time it occupied to travel to! ani from Chariottetowu. The force of| this objection has been recoguized by the | Railway authorities, and an effort has been mide to remove the cause. This | has beon accomplished to as great an_ extent ss is possible, with the traip ser- vice now at the Superintendent's dis- | posal, as our readers will see. Between | Charlottetown and Summerside, and vice versa, the Tignish Through Train will) be rup as vearly as can be done ia the) winter season on Express Train time, | thus redacing the running time between | these points to a mivimum. The train leaving Tiguish at 6.47 a. m., local time, will reach Charlottetown at 3.17 p. m., |
local time, remaining one hour at} Summerside. This is, we believe, | the quickest time made by train, under the winter arrangement, between Tigaish and Charlottetown siuce the road was opened; and, we have no doubt, the change will be duly appreciated by the travelling public. Owing to the fact that it is necessary to give parties west of Summerside, coming by train to that town, time in which to transact business and return home on the same day, the rua from Charlottetowo to Tiguish cau- not be made ir the same iime as the rua inward. Under these circumstances, the delay of the outgoing train at Sum- merside, which to some may appear uL- necessary, is unavoidable. Between here aud Summerside this train will, we| understand, do as litile freightiog as possible. The great bulk of the freight work between these poiuts will, during the wioter, be done by the Summerside train.
The speed of the Eastern trains is also somewhat increased. It will thus be seen that on no part of the road will more time be occupied in runniog the trains than wiil be absolutely necessary to perform the work required to be done. Another commendabie feature of the time table under consideratiou is, that passengers from tie west for points east of Royalty Junction can reach their destination on the same day.
Hditorial Notes.
—Reterring to the result of the last St. John election, the Hamilton Spectator says :—*‘Ouce more the reformers have gaived a great moral victory in St. John. The Conservrtive cindidate will have ail the substantial rewards of success. He will sit in the House of Commons, draw his iademaity aud vote with the Govern- ment. The reform candidate has the proud satisfaction of kaowing that he would have been elected had a greater number of people voted for him. He will also have the advantage of being able to give his undivided attention to his private business.
—The true inwardaess of the Premier’s mission avross the blue water has beeu diaoovere! by our lively contemporary, the New York World, who thus “ gives the whole thing away,” “It has long bean koown,” says our esteemed confrere, “that Sir John’s power hes been waning ; accordingly he has proceeded to England to secure an appointment which he has long coveted, tie Governorship of the West Indies, and an ultimate peerage, with ao Official standing as one of the Queen's advisers.”

MOWAT’S ANNUAL DEFICIT.
Last year Mowat had a deficit of $300,000, and this year he will meet Parliament with @ very much larger one. The Grit papers will please publish this announcement in capital letters.
DEDICATED TO THE GRIT PARTY. (Montreal Witness—Grit Paper )
There are some people, calling themselves Liberals, who seem to be under the im- pression that they have found the materials of a new party in the discords they have so unpatrictically evoked. The bare idea that a party based on race hatreds should have the stablo support of both racos seems absurd. Its foundatien would be as un- stable as it would be disereditable. Is Mr. Blake, the pronouner of the murdered Scott's funeral oration in Parliament, going to lead a party based on sympathy with Riel ?
KIEL'S WORK IN THE NORTHWEST. (Montreal papers of Monday.)
Mgr. Grandin, bishop of Prince Albert, officiate’ at the service in the Roman Catholic cathedral yesterday, and delivered an elequent sermon on the work of the Catholic missionaries in the Northwest, and spoke of how the work had been interrupt- ed by a half-breed chieftain with extrava- gant notions, who had urged the people into rebellion, and told them not to pay any heed to their priests, who, thongh they were authorities ow religion, did not under- stand politics. The preacher went on to depict the ravages cansed by the war, and spoke in feeling terms of the two noble missionaries whose lives had been saori- ficed by the rebels. The missionaries in the Northwest had been most devoted in their work, and had been the means of bringing

THE PUBLIC HEALTH.
NEW CASES.
' Last evening attention was first called to ‘the case of Rosa Wood, in the house of ‘Mr. McCloskey, Pownal Street. The | Health Officer believes that there was no ‘intentional concealment of this case, and the reports about town are unfounded. No new cases to-day,
CONDITION OF PATIENTS. Dr. Jenkins reports that Mrs, Forrest is
Somers and Miss Carver are also very ill; the other women are progressing very In the men’s ward, William Allen is very low, but exhibits a slight im- provement. John Crockett is alsojvery low, but the improvement in him is more mark- ed; Music had a rather restless night bot seems better; Way is also very low, but shows signs of improvement, All the others are progressing favorably. Miss Power is very low and cannot long survive. The patients in town, viz.: Misses McLean, Walsh, Callaghan and McPherson, Dr. Cox's child and Tynan’s child, young Thompson, Mr. Redmond, and Mr. J. W. Mitchel! are all reported ‘doing well.”? In those cases, with one exception, the power of vaccination is apparent. Mr. B. Dawson slept last night, and is rather better to day.
DEATHS.
Mr. Duncan’s child—a little girl aged about twelve years—died last evening. De. Jenkins reports that she had been very low for some time, and her throat, which was affected, closed, and she died asphyxiated.

A meeting of the Protestant Clergy of the city was hell at the residence of the Rev. Job Shenton this (Saturday) morn ag.
The Rev. Me O Meara having notitied the meeting that, owing to the inability of Dr. Fitzgerald to do regular duty on ac- count of ill health and the fact that by tne rubrics of the Church of England he (Rev. Mr. O Moara) was unable to avail himself of the kind and Christian cffera of assistance made him by his brother clergymen throughont the city, St. Paul's Church would have to be closed if he continued to visit regularly the smallpox patients.
It was moved by the Rev. Mr. Rice and Mr. Whitman, and
ser-
carried unanimously :
That as itis now hoped that the disease is well under control, we notify the Health Officer that each Protestant Minister is ready to attend to his owa parishoners when called upon to do go.

A FAVORABLE REPORT FROM VICTORIA
A correspondent at Victoria writes: ‘‘The patient, Neil Pemphrase, under the care of Dr. J. F. Covey, Health Officer, is doing well. So far, he is isolated in his own house. The rest of the houses flagged were all relieved to-day. Great hopes are entertained that we wil be able to confine the disease to the house of Pemphrase The Board of Health have bought a house end are fitting it up as quick as it possibly can bedo e. [see the Putriot says Pem- phrase caught the disease at the wake. Such a report isnot the case. He got it in the Rocklin House where he slept, and no other ploce. Great sympathy is felt for Mr. Pemphrase and family. He is a very industrious man, and no doubt being laid up at this time of the year will frot him coasiderable, and make his trouble bear harder on him. The want of nurses is very much felt. None have been pro-
cured as yet. Hon. W. W. Sullivan de- serves the thanks of the people of this” part of the country for the manner in which | he responded tothe calls of the Board of | Health of Victoria.”
ONE OF THE QUARANTINED. }
Six,—During the excitement arising | from the presence of smallpox in our midst | for the past two weeks, every possible | effort has been put forth by our medical | men and the Board of Health to check the | disease and allay the fears of the peopie. | Too mach praise cannot be awarded io, those who voluntarily gave their services in | the interests of the public at this critrcal period, end the care taken to trace out and isolate every suspected case. Although at first sight it appeared rather an arbitrary | act to flog dwellings and place a guard upon

intercourse which would tend naturally to spread the disease. To those watchmen in charge of the snspected honses we would award the credit of faithfully dis. charging their duties, while always ready to do whatever lay in their power to supply the wants of tho isolated, the cheerful call at the midnight hours of ‘‘All is well,” gave asense of security and re:ce. We have great reason to be thankful that this terrific scourge has been to a large extent stopped, and if proper care is taken by each family to use common caution in disenfecting their dwellings and out-buildings, and remaining at their own homes until all danger is past, the disease will be stamped out.
Thanking you for granting a space in your journal to express my thankfulness,

ORWELL BOARD OF HEALTH.
A meeting of the newly constituted Board of Health for Lots 49 and 5) will be held at Seal River schoolhouse on Monday, 30:h November, inst., at 3 o’clock, p. m.
The Montreal Gazette has a despatch which says: ‘‘There are now abont one hundred cases on the Island. Ex Mayor Dawson is down with the disease.” Our esteemed contemporary has, we are glad to say, been misinformed.
Private advices say that the smallpox is spreading greatly in Sydney, and that the health officers are keeping things quiet.
VACCINATION,
Dr, T. Garcean, of Boston, says: ‘One thing which should be followed closely is vaccination, for I regard that as the pre- ventative against the disease. Itis not a sure preventitive against the disease, but it always serves to ‘ake the disease of a much milder typs. Universal vaccination is, however, a sure and certain preventa- tive against epidemics of smallpox. Where emalipox breaks out and finds victims whose conditions are highly favorable to the disease, it is bound to spread, and will go on doing so, if all the cases are not is- lated, until the two tidal waves—that of the disease and that of vaccination—meet. Thia opinicn is based on the pest experi euee of epidemic in cities throughout the world.”
“There ara several very good vaccine ‘firms,’ chief among them being that of the New England Vaccine Company,of Boston, who have been continuously engaged in the propagation of pure and reliable bovine vaccine virus for the past fifteen years, and ers thus enabled to maintain an even standard in the quality of their production which can only be acquirei by careful observation and study of the subject, com- bined with actual experience ino all its details. Beginning in a small way, when the use of Non-Human’zed vaccine lymph was comparatively unknown, their patron- age has steadily increased from year to year until now they can justly claim the most extensive business of the kind in the world, having among their patrons the Boards of Health in many of the largest cities in the United States and O»nada, together with the War Department of the United States, whose entire requisitions for vaccine virus they have received for the past eight years,”
NOTES.
Michael Bourke, the patient at the Quar- antine Hospital, ia doing well. The crew of the Lucy Pope are all weil.
he Mrs. Smith mentioned as one of the patients in the Sma!lpex Hospital, ia Mrs. Hugh Smith, of Pownal Strest, and ro con- nection of Mr. H. B. Smith, of the D - minion House. It has been currently reported on th streets that Miss Rosa Wood, the patient removed to the Hospital last evening, was until recently, a servant at Mr. Theo. L Chappelle’s residence. This is untrue,as the girl has not been in Mr. Chappelle's em- ploy for some weeks.
It is pleasing to know that the Churches aro to be opened to-morrow; but it is hoped that those who live in the infected districts and houses, and these who are unvaccinated, will have the good sense to stay Away.
a
Jumps to Her Death.
The most dreadful accident which has occurred in Woodstock, N. B., fer some time, happened on the 25th inst. Mrs. R. B. Jones was thrown from a sleigh and in- stantly killed. Mr. Jones is manager of the Manchester House, and both he and Mrs. Jones are well and favorably known. A deep feeling of sorrow over her tragic and sudden death is expressed by the whole community. It appears that Willie Albert, a colored boy, was driving Mrs. Jones to evening service, about 7 o’clock, When coming down the street towards the bridge, the horse, which was not a particularly unmanageable animal, started to run away Mrs. Jones, evidently fearing an accident, jumped out. The boy, who soon had the horse under control, turned and went back. The town marsha!, who witnessed the mis- hap, was immediately on hand. The un- fortunate woman was taken up and carried into Mr. Sprague’s office, but by that time —though only a minute er two elapsed— life was extinct. She never uttered a word nor showed a sign of consciousness afser the accident. Shs was young and active, and her death will leave a blank in a very wide circle of friends and relatives, and her loss to her little children wiil be irre. parable,—Tel
