lhad always been a Liberal-Conserva- | itive, and that he only voted against| ‘the Hon. Mr. Pope in 1876 when) the came out as a Free Trader. | But the statement gives us infinite pleasure. A gentleman who has always been a Liberal | | Conservative, and who opposed Mr. Pope! when he came out asa Free Trader, will! continue to be a Liberal Conservative, and will heartily support Mr. Pope now that, | in the interests of Canada asa whole, he | is a member of the Ministry, which, by the | will of the peeple, introduced the National Policy.

With respect to Colonel Gray’s letter, we) ‘have just one regret. It is that Colonel} | Gray did not, like a man, meet the point ai, issue, and tell the public that he had not the honor of being one of those who estab- lished the Darry ExaMINer.

Educational Institute.

THE annual meeting of the Educational Institute was held last evening. ports of the officers for the past year show | that the Institute has done good work, and,

*ciple for which Tus Examiner has been evuntending, becomes the more apparent. '

But, having learned the Su. of that date had read Tug Exam-} INER &@ .esson, We procured a copy. | On perusing ‘* the iesson,” the Su; must have thought that the Sun| itself had lately learned a lesson; and we! can imagine the auiused chuckle of Mr. | Coleman, Divisional Superintendent at} Truro, as, comfortably ensconced in his; official chair, with the Sun before him, he gave utterance to the old saw—*‘ Con-| sistency, thou art a jewel!” co The [act is that, not long ago, the Sun! eppose| with vivience the appointment of | Mr. Coleman, on tie ground that being a New Brunswicker, he should not have been sent to Nova Scotia. The Sun did this, notwithstanding the fact that there were 1n | efice in New Brunswick Nova Scotian officiais, and that, in tie matter o! official prumotion, there was—that which there lias not been between the otliet Provinces and this Island—perfect reci- | procity. It is said that the editor of the] un even carried about a _ petition rayiny: tor Mr. Coleman's removal.

many

We have avoided the narrow indefensible ground taken on that occasion by the Sun ; and we have not carried around a petition.

In fact Toe ExaMIneER has, but enforced the broad and well established principle that in a trie Federal Union there must be mutual sympathy between the different populations ; and we have argued that this routua! sympathy cannot exist if one of the populations 1s, as that of this Province has been, under a disability. Our attack was, from the first,not against the appointment of Mr. Archibald, so wuch as against the fai!- ure up to this date, of both political parties to recoguize the claims of officials on the Island to promotion.

The Sun, we note, states that ‘‘ at several important points on the I. C. R., there ae {slanders holding responsible positions.’

We challenge the Sun to name one.

We feel that itis not necessary to con- tinue this discussion. The position taken} by the Examiner is, we believe, perfectly | understoodi and recognized to be sound, | net only by the people of this Island (with | whom the EXAMINER is en rapport), but also by the Government. The Argus of Tues- day has an article which contains this signi ficant statement:—‘‘We would not be sur- prised to learn that the Minister of Marine and Fisheries, who has ever taken a lively interest in ali matters affecting the welfare of his island home, has endeavored to offset Mr. Archibaid’s appointment by having several positions on the Lutercolonial Railway filled by Islanders.”

The Argus would not, wethink, have made this statement without authority for doing 30.

If dir. Pope succeeds in this endeavor, he will accomplish that which we have contended for. eured the recognition of an important principle, and he will deserve, and receive, the thanks of the people for having pro- moted in Uanada the interprovincial inter course. equality and cordiality necessary to the success of the Union. At any rate, we have cone our duty.

Mr. Smith, who was to have prepared a | paper for this meeting, not being present, the subject of the jast meeting’s discussion, | viz., *‘Oramming for Examinations,’ was! continued,

Some difference of opinion existed as to what cramming really was—some contend- ing that all home tasks or memorizing of lessons was cramming—others, that the mere reception of what may be contained in the text book without any understand-

} '

The system of cramming the pupil for the purpose of making an exhibition before the public on closing day, or for the purpose of satisfying the demands of school officers

Was unanimously condemned.

Opinions differed as to the matter of home tasks. A tendency of the present day to make everything simple and easy for the pupil, was thought to be of ques- tionable utility, on the principle that what is easily acquired is less likely to be re tained.

The Ohio Women’s Whiskey Crusade.

The Christian Herald says :— The Women’s Whiskey Crusade has been re- newed in Frederictown, Ohio. They met the other morning, suinmoned by the ring- ing ef a hand bell. Forming into pro- cession they marched to the principal liquor establishment of the place, which they found closely guarded. After some par- leying they proceeded to break down the doors, and having thus effected an en- trance, they then turned on the taps of all the barrels that were tapped, staved in others that were not, and broke every bot- tle in the place. Then they proceeded to the next hotel, where a repetition of the scene was prevented only by the abject capitulation of the proprietor. He under- teok forthwith to cart the whole of his stock-in-trade out of the town, pledging himself by a solemn oath, that he would not in the meantime dispose of a single

town. The ladies next visited other stores where liquor was sold, and\ pursued their victorious course unchecked.

Aw Ovp Speciric For | rts Disconrent. —- The tollowing extract is taken from ‘‘Curi- osities of the Search Room” (page 106):— ‘‘T give and bequeath the annual sum of £10, to be paid in perpetuity out of my estate, to the following purpose:—It is my will and pleausre that this sum shall be spent in the purchase of a certain quantity of the liquor vulgarly called whiskey, and it shali be publicly given qut that a certain number of persons, Lrish only, not to! exeeed twenty, who may choose to assemble

on the anniversary of my death, shall have the same distributed to them. Further, it is my desire that ¢ach shbali receive i: by half a pint ata time till the whole is con- sumed, each being likewise provided with a

pany shortly afer the neu apaper weit out of the ands of Mr. Bowers, and that it was put in at @ time when the party was in great straits, and when it weuld be impossible for the organ to liv» without it.” e

_ In other words, shorily after Tur PExan iwex had been ruined by Mr Bowers! This may be true. We know

nothiiy of the “inside histury” of THe ExaMiWER previous to the date on

stout oaken stick anda knife, and that they shall drink it all en the spot. Know- ‘ing what I knowof the Jrish characters. |my conviction is, that with these materials given, they will not fail to destroy each , other, and when in the course cf time the | race comes to be exterminated, this neigh- | borhood, at least, may, perhaps, be colo- i aiane by civilized and respectable English- men.
