Rigns er

Branch Railway at Elmira!

l'o the Editor of the Examiner.

Dear Sir,—Another year of peace aud plenty aud (I may add) prosperity, is drawing near to a close. ‘The farmers in this and adjacent settlements have gathered in a plentiful supply for another cold winter.

The crops in this eastern section of the Province have been very good fespecially the oat crop, which, to our farmers, means all the crop, as it is the only farm product exported, it being, under exist-

ing circumstances, impossible to haul heavier or more bulky produce to market.

We in this eastern section of the Is- land are laboring under many and very serious disadvantages from want of facil- ities for conveying our produce, etc., to market.

At this season of the year and later, when our farm products are ready for market, We have wo road, absolutely none, on which to convey them away. Is it not too bad, Mr. Editor, that, at the very time when we want a road the worst, when our produce must be taken to market, that it is the nearest thing to ‘impossible imaginable to get it there. There is vot such a road (for the distance) ‘on P. E. Island with hills, or mountains, ‘and gutter. What we want, and what I think we justly deserve, is a Railway ‘from Harmony to Elmira, only about ‘eight miles, over a perfectly level tract ‘of land, easily built, and plenty of lumber (on the track.

In the fall of 1879, I wrote an article on the subject of a branch railway to ‘Elmira. Subsequently the matter had been discussed and agitated, Meetings

‘Souris eastward were unanimous in ask- ‘ing our Representatives, local and Dominion, to aid us in procuring this much needed boon. Consequeatly peti- tions were sent around and hundreds of signatures readily obtained. The peti- tions were then sent to our worthy ‘Representatives at Ottawa, Messrs. ‘Muttart and Macdonald, who presented

‘them to Sir Charles Tupper, Minister of

Railways, etc. At that time, however, business was only just beginning to retrieve from a terrible state of depres- sion brought on by (I need scarcely say what). Sir Cherles, however, did not treat the matter with disdain. Heshow- ed that the Intercolonial and P. E. Island Railways were sinking money every year, and to add more branches just then would be reckless folly. Since then business has assumed gigantic pro- portions. Every department shows re- }markable progress. Railways, as well as everything else, are looking up,’ as can be seen by referring-to recent statis- tics of railway earnings. So much so that our plucky New Dominion is determined to bind the Atlantic to the Pacific by arailway. Viewing matters in this light, we are prompt to make another appeal for redress. Since writ- ing before, this remote portion of the Dominion has not been retrograding, but progressing apace with the rest of the Province. Fishing in the various branches has been prosecuted with unwented zeal by our hardy shere fisher- men.

Since writing before, no less than seven lobster factories have been erected ju this vicinity, all of which did a fair seasons work. Agriculture too is on the upward tendency, farmers are beginning to see that it isto their advantage to improve their stock and seed, and East Point can now boast of having as heavy porkers as any part of the Island. Our yield of wheat and oats hewever, is not what we woulddesire. We want lime or some fertilizer for the soil, and how can we procure it without a Railway, we have vo harbor, not even for a boat, nearer than St. Peter’s Bay, on the north side, and Souris on the south, from both of which we are absolutely cut off spring and fall by the bad roads, Shall we not try again ? Shall we not take advantage of this prosperous season to urge upon our representatives the ne- cessity of giving this subject a fair and impartial consideration? Would it be too much to ask for a survey of the pro- posed route, aud report on the result? Let us be unanimous ! Let us ask and keep on asking, and if we never ob- tain it let us live and die conscious that we did our duty to those who may follow us. We are paying for a Railway that may oever directly bevefit us in the least. Can we not have eight miles, which will save us hauliug our produce ete., over fourteen miles of the worst road in British North America.

I remain for the present, Yours, etc., TRADER. Elmira, Oct. 12, 1881.

To the Editor of the Examiner.

Sir, —You are well aware that the Scott Act is now !aw in this Province, and to all appearance is euforced. But how is it en-

fines and penalties imposed by the Magis- trates been paid, or have the violaters ever been asked to pay them! I answer no; and unlike the average newspaper scribbler, I know whereof I atfrm, and I now desire to say that I know of at least two persons whose fines are uncollected to this day, and one of them laughs at the idea of paying as a matter of sport. I will here state that in what 1 have written i have ao reference to the Stipendiary’s Court in your city. I un- Gerstand the Stipendsary does his duty fearlessly and as he should. But what about the rest ?

JOSEPH. Lot 49, Oct., 1881.

Te the Editor of the Examiner.

| Dear SrrR,—As the reader of a short para- _graph in your paper of the 14th instant would _ be led to suppose the firm of which I am a member was guilty of a violation of the Fish- ery Act, and not wishing to lie under that imputation, I beg leave to state the following facts: On August 15th we ccased canning lob- | sters, and the following day ordered our traps to be landed. By the 2ist ef August eighty per cent. of what we succeeded in recovering were landed, and by the 26th the balance ;werein. Although not |present at the trial in Souris, 1am informed by my partner that . the evidence of the Fishery Warden, McDon- ald, failed to show that we had violated the law in the slightest particular, but proved we had used every effort te get n our traps. Why His Majesty the luspector inflicted us with a fine for a violation of the Fishery Act, while under precisely similar evidence the case against MeLean & Son was dismissed, is a mys- tery to me.

Obituary Notes.

(From the Toronto Mail.)

SENATOR PENNY,

Public life has lost a notable figure by the death of Senator Penny, of Montreal. ' He had been in very poor health for years, |and owing to partial paralysis his energy ‘was, ef course, greatly impaired. His | death did not come unexpectedly. The de- ceased gentleman was sixty-one years old. He came to Montreal in 1844, and was called to the bar. But journalism and politics absorbed his life thereafter. For many years he was the chief writer of poli- tical and commercial articles for the Mon- treal Herald, and never lost control of the paper we understand. His hand could always be detectsd in the paper by the clearness of the style and the purity of the language. Common sense was a etrong characteristic of Senator Penny ; and good humor combined with common sense gave him a personal popularity that was, we be- lieve, very assured. Contrary to the usual course vf things in journalism and in poli- tics, Senator Penny accumulated a con- siderable fortune. His death makes the fifth existing vacancy in the Senate.

DR, HOLLAND,

Thére were three active literary men in thé United States whose aames and writings have been most familiar to us in Canada, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Geo. W. Curtis, editor of ‘‘ Harper's Magazine,” and Dr. J. G. Holland, editur of ‘‘ Seribner’s Monthly.” The last named has been suddenly snatched away...His death de- prives the continent of one of its keenest literary intellects. From month to month readers of ‘‘ Scribner's Monthly” have eagerly sought out the editorial articles at the end of the magizine, always with the certainty of finding some timely items treated in a manly, scholarly, skillful, and refined manner. His fineness of percop- tion never seemed to fail; and his Re- publican sentiment never yielded to that tendency towards the bombast and seilf- laudation which too often marks the writ- ing of the American magazines. As poet, nevelist, essayist, and journalist, Dr. Hol- jand’s claim to admiration and remem. brance is indisputable. His work is of the purest. As Thackeray said of Washington Irving, “‘ here all is open, pure and clear.” There are no apologies to be made for aline he has written that we known of; God’s laws and man’s proprieties were never transgressed wantonly by this voluminous writer. It is greatly to the credit of the American people that so pure a writer should be so popular. It is to the credit of litera- ture that so pure a life should have chosen it as a profession.

A company has been incorporated in Paris, with a capital stock of ta niillion pounds, for the establishment of an Ameri- can exchange.

The commission of experts appointed by the Hungarian Government has decided in favor of maintaining the prohibition against the importation perk.

It is very melancholy to learn that at Sir Richard Cartwright’s recent meet- ing at Smith’s hall, Gooderich, only about forty of the party were present—just the nimber in the band that Ali Baba saw going into the cave.— Toronto Mail,

Lord Salisbury, speaking at Newcastle the other day, denied that he ever advecat- ed protection, but he desired a thorough investigation of the subject. If he found that by raising the duty on luxuries, or tureatening to raise it, pressure could be brought to bear upon foreign Goveruments to reduce their rats, he could throw the erthodexy formula to the winds.

The Bey of Tunis has signel an order authorizing the occupation of Kairouan by tae Frenca trvops. Heavy siege artillery is being mounted at the citadel at Tunis, aud in the iarge fort outside the principal gate of the city. The insurgents attacked a strong French Force near Susa, and the French suffered some loss. They feil into an ambuscade. Despite the large French garrison at Susa the insu: gents captured many cattle close to the town, and piilaged

forced in this County of Queen’s. Have the’ several villages in the vicinity.
