The Railway Readjustment.
THz King’s County Advertiser has the following just remarks :—
‘* By the re-adjustment the employees on the Railway will receive upwards of nine thousand dollars less wages annually than formerly, which means a loss of that amount to the Island, as it was distributed among us in a general way. For our part we do not wish to see money spent unnecessarily or extravagantly, no matter where it hap- pens to be spent; but we contend that if the running expenses of our Railway are to be shaved so closely, our employees are justly entitled to the same wages in every de- partment as are paid in all other parts of the Dominion. This is the least we can expect. We want no sinecures on the road, but would wish to see our men well worked and well paid. It is generally believed that whatever arrange- ments will satisfy all parties will be made in due time, and that every Railway em- ployee on this Island, will ere long receive the same wages as are paid elsewhere. If the authorities are prepared to adopt this system it is the cuty of every der to assist and uphold them; b Were not at any time so very anxious to beeome con- federated that we should now be considered subordinate, nor will we ever submit to such treatment. There is, we believe, enough independence in P. E. Islanders to resist at the outset, any innovation of this kind.”

A Peculiar People.
The Moncton Times says :—‘‘The Grits are & peculiar people—in the ordinary, not in the theological, sense of the word. They are affected almost to tears by the discharge of eighty men from the Govern. ment workshops, representing a diminu- tion of employment to the yearly value of say $30,000. Yet they can lovk on with perfect unconcern and behold twice this amount of their own money sent annually
to the United States employing operatives there to make goods that ought to Le made here. We say, and we challenge contradiction, that the money sent to the United States
for articles consumed in Moncton, and that could as weil be made here, would employ more men than have recently been dis- charged from the shops here. Is this a fact! If so, is itnot worthy of the con- sideration of our business men? And would it not be better for Grit and Tory to put their heads tegether and endeavor to stop this big leak while at the same time we seek by all legitimate means to secure an inc: ease of Government work at this point ?’ A < —-
Cunt AND Peru's War.—A_ telegram via Panama, April 28, says :—The first naval enceunter teok place on the 15th, off River Loa, between the Chilian corvette Magailaneo and the Peruvian vessels Union and Pilcomayo. Little damage occurred, the Chilian vessel withdrawing. The (h'ian
uadron destroyed the loading apparatus of the Guano Leading Company at several ports. These works cost a large amount and were owned by foreigners. General Daza, President of Bolivia, with 4,0C0 troops, is rapidly approaching the territory loccupied by the Chilians.

The “ Aged Departed.”
To the Editor of the Examiner.
Sim,—In fulfilment of my promise, I send you a condensed list of the ‘‘ aged de- parted” in the months of March and April
last. Their names and years areas fol- lows :— James Laird, New Glasgow, . : 70
Thomas Harris, Eldon, . ; ‘ 70 Mary Rowe, Montague, . . , Mary Ann Prespier (Ind.), 8. P. Bay, 68 Eliz. T. Tanton, St. Eleanor’s, 78 John B. Crossman, Cape Wolfe, . 78 Mary Mooney, Peake’s Road, : 80 Susan Connolly, Ch’town, . 1 92 D. Nicholson, Victoria Cross, Lot 57, 76 Ann McSwain, Argyle (rear), ; 75 Nancy McLellan, Grand River (east), 110 Elizabeth Bearisto, Lower Montague, 66
Alex. Robertson, Brudenell,. 76 Wm. Gillespie, Carlton Point, . 72 Margaret Wilson, Summerside, . 74 Peter Gregor, Charlottetown, : 73 Rebecca Whitehead, New London, 69 Jenny Hogg, Kelvin Grove, . ‘ 75 Patrick Daly, Lot 16, . . ‘ 74
Elizabeth Simpson, Hope River, . 65 Bernard Clarkin, Mora:han Road, 104
These are remarkable ages. Passing Kiley’s stone-cutting establishment, the other day, I learned that Capt. James Furniss died at 78, and Michael Murphy at 81. If I have overlooked any names for the period covered by this letter, I will publish them in my next. Yours, &c.,

Rum vs. Fairpiay.
To the Editor of the Hraminer.
Drax Sir,—A community capable of self- government should not be a people to care- lessly sanction class legislation; but if now a free people had an obnoxious sample of class legislation foisted on them, the citizens of Charlottetown have, by the adoy - tion of the Scott Temperance Act, had it with a vengeance.
By the adoption of this extraordinary Act, one class is denied the use of malt or fermented liquors—whilst the wealthy or privileged class are permitted to import (ostensibly) for their own use, as much wine, brandy, etc., as they choose to pay duties for. Now, what is to prevent this privileged class from importing a much larger stock than they really require, and afterwards selling a portion to their friends; yes, and at a reasonable profit, too. Under such a system every private cellar known to contain liquor would require to be placed under Excise surveillance ; but why was this clause inserted in the Act at all /—just to disarm the Opposition of the wealthy and influential class.
And there is also that very objectien- able 10 gallon clause, which is nothing more or less than an encouragement for unprincipled dealers to carry on an illicit traflic in obscure holes and corners of the City ‘which the law will be powerless to reach—even @ruggists should not, under any pretence, be allowed to import alcohol, let them import their tinctures such as rhubarb &c., in a prepared state, and alcohol as a necessity of their business may be dispensed with, for we all know if men are resolved to have drink, drink they will have, and wherever a store of liquor is kept, there are a favored few who will always be able to obtain it.
There is one only remedy for such an anomaly—the traders, moderate drinkers, and the unfortunates who, by the Provisions of this Act, are treated as pariahs, ought to combine with the temperance man, and demand the exclusion of the article. If liquor is to be prohibited let it he so, but let all classes fare alike.
Yours Xc., SCRIBBLER.

A splendid national theatre is projected in London, after the idea of the Grand Opera House in Paris, at a cost of about $15,000,000.
Why Will You
Allow a cold to advance in your system and thus encourage more serious maladies such as Pneumonia, Hemorrhagesand Lung troubles, when an immediate relief can be so readily attained. Boschee’s German Syrup has gained the largest sale in the world for the cure of Coughs, Colds and the severest Lung Diseases. Itis Dr. Boschee’s famous Gerinan prescription, and is pre; pared with the greatest care, and no fear need be entertained in administering it to the youngest child, as per directions. The sale of this medicine is unprecedented. Since first introduced there has been a con- stant increasing demand and without a single report of a failure to do its work in any case. Ask your druggist as to the truth of. these remarks. size 75
