Political Meeting.

AccorpInG to announcement, a public meeting, called by the Hon. William Cam bell, tuwk place at New Lendon Hall, on the evening of the I1th inst. The Hail was filled with electors.

The meeting was organized by appointing Charles Bernard, Esq., Chairman, and the undersigned Secretary. Mr. Campbell caine forward and told the electors that his seat in the Legislature was now vacant in consequence of his acceptance of the office of Minister of Pablic Werks, and that he came before them to give an account of his public sets, and to seek their suflrages. He then spoke of various acts of the Govern- ment siuce he had been a member of it, and showed from the public records the savings and reforms that had been effected. A desiltory discussion followed, in whieh about a dozen took part, and while differ- ent opilions were put forth respecting some of Mr. Campbells statements, not one word wis uttered against his acceptance of office. Mr. Campbell’s strongest political opponents approved of the course he had taken, und said that opposition, in the present imstance, would be a step in_ the wrong direction. Wiliam Ross, Esq., moved, and John McLeod, Esq., seconded, the following resolution :—

Whervas, The Legislative business of this Island is greatly reduced in consequence of eiteriny into Confederation ; aud. whereas, the exp nse of keeping forty-three legislators to perform the limited amount of work to be done, is too gr at and will add largely to our taxes; md, whereas, the House of Assembly passed, last winter, a Bill to abolish the Leg- islative Council in tote, thereby depriving property holders of that right which every constitt tional Government guard and protect.

Therefore, Resolved, That this meeting dis- approve of the principle of said Bull, and would recommend eutting down beth branches of the legislature to a limited number—say, one hal’ —thereby guarding, protecting and represeiiting all classes of voters.

Wher the vote was taken the House was pretty equally divided.

It was moved by Mr. C. A. Crosby, second- ed by G. B. MeKay, Esq.—

Resolved, That this meeting approve of the course taken by Hon. William Campbell, in accepting the office of Minister of Public

-| Works, and pledge themselves to support Mr.

Campb: il, should a poll be demanded. — Car- ried.

Corresvonodenie. Medeski aninaeloanameichans — To the Editor of the Examiner.

Str,—With this you will receive the second part of my “Thoughts on Paper and Gold.” As to the first part, | may observe that the late Emperor of France, on his marriage with the Mmpress Kugé@nte, remarked that as a Par- venu, and nephew of a Parvenu, he felt proud that his wife was a lineal descendant of ‘* Kirkpatrick, Closeburns dreaded Knight,” the faithinl follower, the Cauxp, of one of the best and noblest of Kings. My episode ef Austerlitz, &c.—what shall I say? Sur Walter Scott, in ‘* Marmion,” tells us that the spectral Hidolon of King Edward the First, of England (LoxsGsHANKs) appeared to Adexander, King of Scotland, shortly before the battle of Largs, and foretold the bom- bardment of Copenhagen, with the capture of the Danish fleet, by Lerd Nelson. So I hope to be allowed to stand ‘‘parvus sub ingenti,” like a certain small tree known to us in this Colony.—or rather like Junivs (whoever he was) of whom hia title page says, ‘* Stat nom- inis umbra.”” My second part begins with a quotation, “verbatim et literatim,” from the two first lines of the ‘‘ Canterbury Tales” of Geofiry Cuaucer, a poet of whom | take the liberty to express an opinion a .alozous to what i have said of poor unhappy Robert Burns. The ground of what I say of the rod and the bridle, is taken from one of the Proverbs of ‘*the wisest man the worl! e’er saw.” Jed- wood, or Jedburgh, on the borders of Eng- land and Scotland, ‘‘the debateable Land,” had a Law that, whenever a murderer was taken ‘‘ red-handed, ’ he was to be hanged in the first place, and tried afterwards, in case any merely Jegal ground might be found for acquitting him. The next part, the third, will couciude my ‘* Thoughts on Paper and Gold.” ‘ Kece iterum iterumgue Crispinus !” and then (uniess you be quite tired of me,) I may say with the old shepherd in ‘ Lyci- das.” ‘* To-morrow to fresh fields and pastures new.” Your constant reader,

THOUGHTS ON PAPER AND GOLD, PART It. “*Whanné that April, with ls showers sote, The drought of March hath pierced to the rote ;” And ‘‘Stercoraceous heaps” in caverns pent, Have made our town a perfect (s)cent per

(s)cent,

What need of mussel mud for neighboring plains,

While Chirlottetown witheut a drain re mains. ?

But what, vou'll ask, has this to do with cash ?

Why ¢his, that our expeases have been rash.

A Railroad (curved and crooked) we possess !

But we ourselves are in a woeful mess!

A Railroad may be good, but | maintain

That land and man alike require—a drain !

Gold is the medium Heaven itself has made ;

And paper trash is but a scheme of trade.

In old Threadneedle Street, in Londen town,

Where smoke descends on trees not green but brown,

Oft have | seen, and added to, the hoard

Of bright new sovereigns shovelled on the board.

First to the Chief Cashier my bow was made,

Chen to the ‘Drawing Vitice” to be paid.

‘‘Owlyavit?” next inquired th’ attendant Clerk,

(The missing H is dear old London’s mark ;)

Like Malcolm Greme I answered, ‘‘calm and bold,”

‘*O, if you please, I'll take the whole in gold E

The business being done, to my content,

U'er to the neighboring ‘“‘Mansion Heuse” I went,

An hour or two with valued friends to stop,

And have my lunch, a savoury mutton chop,

And end the morning’s work ['d been about,

With just a glass of Fowell Buxton’s svovt.

O ! happy days, when cash was duly paid! |

When noexcuses for delay were made!

When laws by Lorps and GENTLEMEN were made,

And LAND was not a THING for truck and trade !

Of all the notes within eur Banker's hand,

[ like the notes of Galbraith s glorious band !

When Drums and Trumpets join in Highland Reels,

And circumambient air the repercussion feels.

‘These notes are true; we know, without mis- tuke,

They represent a BANK which ne’er can break !

When Christiaan souls o’er Life's rough waves have driven,

We know that music will be heard in Heaven !

A season comes, of dark eclipse and shade,

When Satan's latest effort shall be made ;

On allhis Whigs, that first great Whig will call;

And with his legions vex our earthly ball.

In that dread hour may lords and monarchs make

A noble stand, for truth and order's sake!

But seen will kings aud lords no more be known,

And rank rebellion fill each vacant throne.

No more in mutual aid let monarchs trust,

Since hapless Maximilian bit the dust !

While vile Juarez sits in high degree, }

Instead of hanging from the nearest tree ;

Our Jedwood Law was made for such as he. \

Mazzini’s cunning and rebellious mace

Make Austria’s Empire tremble to its base;

Russia, to please th’ inusatiate servile band,

Gives to each villain serf his master’s land ;

I fear that ruin’s rod full soon may pass

On HIM who took the bridle off the ass !

The Belgian sovereign owned his ready wind,

To go—or stay—as Brussels felt inclined |

The Spanish mule from off his shoulder, flings

The fair descendant of an hundred kings,

The Throne of Hanover exists no more;

Gone are the Isles of the Iouian shore ;

Gibraltar s rock, the fruit of many a fight,

** England must yield it back to Spain!” says Bright. ;

‘* We need no Seamen, we require no “hips! }

We'll pay for all the Alabams trips !

Ner mourn the Sun of England i Eclipse !” \

St. Patrick’s Day.

To the Editor of the Examiner.

Dear Stx,—In your issue of Saturday there appears a letter signed ‘‘ Irishman,” to which I will, with your permission, briefly reply. This ‘‘ Irishman” says he ‘* observes with regret that the Irish Socie- ties of this eity intend-to parade on St. Patrick’s Day.” In the first place this cor- respondent does not state facts. The St. Patrick’s T. A. & B. Society (which no deubt he classes as one of those Societies), at a meeting heid a short time ago, passed a resolution te walk on/y from their Hall te St. Dunstan’s Cathedral, and not in ‘triumphal procession threugh our streets,” as ‘‘ Irishman” has it in a part of his let- ter. I feel certain the Bensvolent Irish Society will net extend its walk further than this. It is necessary, in some way, to continue the celebration of St. Patrick’s Day—it keeps alive our love fer Ireland ; and, at the present time, will prompt us te still further assist the people of that un- happy country. In this matter ef ‘turning out” and walking to Church on St. Pat- rick’s Day, the lrishmen and Temperance men of this city have had an advice that they value more highly than this corres pondent’s—-an advice which never would have heen given (or accepted) if it was thenght that by so doing it would reflect discredit on them as Irishmen, or be a means of rejoicing when their Motherland was face to face with a famine. ‘‘ Irish- man’s’ aliusions to the ‘‘silent glens,” the ‘‘ Harp with the broken siring,”’ the ‘*hills of Erin,” etc., may all sound very well, but are quite common. In closing, I would suggest that this wise and thoughtful ‘** Irishman” be at once appointed a kind of Dictator or Adviser te his countrymen in this city, as he would then bein a posi- tion to give them the benefit of his superior knowledge at their meetings, and ndt be obliged to rush into print at the eleventh

A Good Thing.

German Syrup is the special prescrip. tion of Dr. A. Boschee, a celebrated German Physician, and is acknowledged to be one of the most fortunate discoveries in Medicine. It quiekly cures Coughs, Colds and all lung troubles of the severest nature, iremoving, asit does, the cause of the \affection and leaving the parts in a

strong and healthy condition. It is _not an experimental medicine, but has stood the test of years, giving

satisfaction in every case, which its rapidly increasing sale every season confirms. Two million bettles sold annually. Beware of medicines of similar names, lately intro- duced. Boschee’s German Syrup was in- troduced in the United States in 1868, and 'is now sold in every town and village in the civilized world. Three doses will re- lieve any ordipary cough. Price 75 cents. Sample bottle, 10 cents.
