John, and upwards of sixty of their friente Trey much enjoyed their beautiful sail over and their visit in the city. Some of them obtained souvenirs of their visit, one youog lady taking home with her a large specimen of the dried codfish. We presume tbat she must bave thought that she was in Canso or Arichat of one of the coast towns where little is tobe seen but fish. Most of them had dinner at the Revere Hotei.

NOTES AND COMMENTS.

— One of the questions of the day—a hot one in Ontario—is “shal! the ballot stuffer or the people rule io this Canada of ours ?',

—England is suffering from drought,

and there is anxiety io London regardiog the water supply. The rain came our way this year.

— lt now appears that the Liberal vic- tories at the bye-elections in Cornwall, North Gray, South Brant, West Huron and Brockville were al! won by “Ballot Stuffe ing,” **Personation” and other devices of tbe machine which Dr, Preston wanted to bug.

—There are eaid to be, so far, sixteen applicants for the Senatorship made vacant by the death of Senator Santord. Many of theese geptiemen are members of the House of Commons who are anxious to *“get in ont of the rain” before the next e.rction,

—The Guerdian seems to be sorry that it implied that the Provincial Opposition opposed the Hillsborough bridge and ought to be punished by the electors of Belfast. It’s surprise that Tue Examiner should resict such a false and injurious implicas tion is surprising. But cur independent contemporary, apparently still imagines that it is “ indiscreet” to stand up for that which isright and fair as betwen the two parties in this Province.

of $2500 will produce a revenue of $12,500.00. An average of two mestages daily from each of the eight toll stations —and this is a smal] estimate—would prodace revenue from that source $13,140.00. Add io these the ameunt received from the Provincial Government $1,085.00, and it would give a total return of $26,725.00. Deduct from this the costof afew pounds of eal ard the salaries of a few cheap employes, and vou have $20,(00 to $24,000 annual income on a paid up capital of probabiy $40,000. This is something for our citi- zens to ponder over. Almost first amengst the acts of the present government was to extend to this campany a fifteen year mon. cpoly, and in addition vote a subsidy to them Out of the funds of taxpayers of the province. If it were not for the obstacle of this sbsolute monopoly a company might be organized to give us a $5 and $10 rate bringing the telephone within the reach of all cjasses in the community, be- sides making the service more general, in- stead of limiting its use as at present to the few under the exorbitant $20 or $3@ rental.

A bad promise is better broken than kept ; aad when a monopoly stands in the way of the people’s progress the ; privileges are better cancelled than adbered.to. The legislature, who have acted hastily in thus depriving the great mage of the people of telephonic communication ata reasonable

of

eost should at once rectify the mistake and repeal those clauses in the act. If the company should

object, on the usual “plea of vested rizhte, Why offer to take the plant off their hands in the interests of a suffering public. By no reason, in justice, should we be com- pelled to stand this for seven years longer, while the company hold their $30 sub- scription bucket under the wounds to catch the life blood of the commerce of the community.
