THE TWO-CENT RATE.

Sir,— We notice that the “P

owers that

be’ take great credit to themselves for introducing the two-cent letter rate throughout the Empire. We fail to see

anything to crow about, Who in Canada are benefitted by this change? The millionaire importer and trader and a few Ligh-toned parties who, io most instances, like drones in the hive, living luxariousiy on the labor of others, save some money; but wherein does the benefit come to the working bees whom Mr. Muloek repre- sents ?

Does it not seem ridiculous that a domes- tic, say in Charlottetown, must pay three cents on a letier to her home a few miles away, when Mrs Uppercrust can send one to Liverpool or John o’ Groat’s for two? Yet if Ll understand the law sucb is the case, and it is considered a wonderful stroke of statesemanship! Verily, people like to be “humbagged.” A country merchant in sending afew hundred accoutts to cuas- tomers within a radius of a few miles must pay fifty percent more postage on each letter than it costs to send the same to London, England. We will be told, of course, that our ideas are too narrow, that

we do not underetand the case because of

our ignorance, €tc, etc. We claim that some people are placed in responsibie | posiions by the

—too wel! often in proportion to the labor performed, and the least we can expect is some consideration in return. People are

the canse of to have

to have their nawes enrolled among “great” men of theday isthe such laws as we now are about iret, and “the greatest good to the greatest | number.” ‘The bailot is our only legiti- mate weapon, and it will be used until we

think of us and our burdens

W:l! someone please explain what ad- vantage this foreign two-cent rate is to the farmers, artisaus and laborers of Canada? If such was would be nearer right, viz: Give a local two-cent rate first and: later reduce the foreign, if found prac- ticable.

CRAPAUD SPEAKS

Sin, —Considereble blow is being <arried on by the Patriot and some Liberal keelers in regard to the straightening of the curve at North Wiltshire by which the time be- tween Sumwerside aod Charlottetown is shortened by one half minute, at a cost of between thirty and forty thousand dollars. sum should have gone towards a branch line to Crapaud, in which case it would have been money well epent. As it is it is simply wasted. It was boodle of the worst kind. A practical way for the elector to ascertain tbe value of the change is toask himself haw much cheaper is it to travel from Wiltshire to Charlottetown Since the opeuing of the aew curve, be- vause there is quite a sharp curre in the new piece ot roads. The 3 tickets has not beer redaced one,cent. The claim that coal will be saved is a mere statement which may or may not be true, while jthe claim that $10,000 a year will be saved in «now fencing 18 simply untrue and carries its untruth on the face. The money was wasted, the étraightening was not required,the whole work is a piece of

in the Episcopal Chureb, and only labored for turee years. He died on the 2nd April, 1209, and was so lovingly held in remem-~

P Elsland. There being no stone in this province suited for mouuments, a young man why revered nis memory erected one ot wood at the back of the pulpit of the church in which he ministered. In 1846 a stone monument was placed over his grave, a plain freestone slab, which com memorates the memory of P E Island’s firet Presbyterian minister.
