No doubt the Domision Government | and their officials regret as much as the | withdrawal | potice, “St.
people of this Proviuce the at this season, and at such short of the f Wales” and Lawrence ;” for they have been put to) the trouble and the country has been put to the expense of supplying means for carrying the mails and passengers on the Pictou route. This they have done with commendable promptitude, and in a way which caunot fail to give satisfactioa A steamer leaves Picton every day in the week for either Georgetown or Charlottetown, on the arrival of the mail train from Halifax. Thus, the‘ Northera Light” leaves Picton on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Seturdays ; aud the ‘Napoleon ILi.”” leaves Pictou on Mondays, Wedaesdays, Fridays and Saturdays.
From the Island to Pictou mails and passengers W ill be carried on every day of the week - Fridays excepted. The “Northern Licht” leaves Georgetown on
“«D.° . +} rincess o
Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday morning at six o'clock, sharp. “Napoleon III.” leaves Charlotte- town every Monday, Wednesday and
Saturday morning at 7 o'clock. She is obliged to stay in Picton from Wednes- day afteruoon until Friday moroving to take in coal, and sv cannot make a trip | from Charlottetown on Friday, or there would doubtless be daily communicatioa | to and from Pictou, as well as to and from Shediac.
We may remark that the fears res-| pecting the “Northern Light” which the | Patriot is striving to raise are ground- | less; for the ‘Northern Light” was | placed upon the slip at Pictou last spriog and thoroughly repaired. The ** Northern | Light” never had an Inspector’s certifi- | cate—the enormous amount experded | upon her every year, being doubtless, considered a sufficent guarantee to i
public.

Civic Repairs.
Tae City Council will meet on Mon-| day evening. We hope that orders will | be yiven for the repairs of our side-| walks and streets where most needed We hope, also, that the best means of draining the northern part of the town so that the purity of Spring Park Brook | will be ensured, and the Charlottetown | Woollen Factory will not be forced to do | a civic work at their own expense, will | be discussed. | Election time is coming; | and our City Fathers should now be on} their good behavior. |

Editorial Notes.
—Seven additional numbers of Pictur- esque Canada have been distributed. Alike in engravings and letter press, they are excelleut. The remaiving num- bers will not be distributed in this Pro- | vince until spring.
—The Marquis of Lansdowne began his career as Governor-General auspic- ously. One of the first, if not the first, of his official acts was an act of merey— the reprieve of McCabe, who had res ceived the death sentence.

the practice of hunting deer with dogs, |
says that a law should be bidding the use of dogs in and that the penalty for the should be hanging, and for something severe.

—Reliable advices from the Upper Provinces state that trade there is ina
prosperous coudition; and according to |
the best opinions, the country is finan- cially sound. The want of confidence which existed a few weeks ago, for the most part, resulted from the false reports
and stock jobbers, and the failure of the | incom- |
Exchange Bank through the petency of its officials.
—A farmer in Vermont—poor man— |
says that potatoes were not worth
raising this year—he could get nothing |
for them, only fifty cents a bushel! Last year he and his fellow farmers got one dollar a bushel for their potatoes. farmers would not be so despondent as the Vermonter if they could get fifty cents for their potatoes. In fact they would consider themselves particularly fortunate.
—The manager of the Windsor Cotton
Factory has written a letter to the| Toronto Globe respecting its gross mis- |
statements about the wages of operatives, in which he says :—
‘“‘We paya thousand dollars weekly to 180 operatives.
spinners, $10; spoolers, $4 to $5; drawers- in, $4 to $6; beam-warpers, $5 to $6; strip- pers and grinders, $7; drawers, $5 to $6; and slubbers and rovers, $7 per week; ring spinners, $5; and we work sixty hours per week.” ,
Whether or noc these are “starvation wages,’ let the public judge.

—The “N. 1. Depression” gives our Grit contemporaries a great deal of anxiety; but, oaturally enough, they seem to know nothing whatever about the **Free Trade Ruin ” in England-- firms falling by the dozen! Apropos of “N. P. Depression,” we read,—
“Over one hundred new houses were erected in Moncton during the past year, and in Woodstock the record is equally good.
‘*\ gentleman, looking for an empty house, made a tour of the city of Halifax, a day or two ago. He traversed the whole north end, and from Cogswell street to the cotton factory, found but two small cot- tages and four parts of houses to let, In 1878 there were over 120 empty houses in the same district. And yet, the Recorder is praying for another era of depression ! Chere is only one vacant house in the south end. John Naylor, the real estate agent, says he cannot begin to get houses for people who apply for them. In 1878 he
had 176 houses to let; now he has oniy two. Consequently his real estate business has been ‘‘ruined.’’ The bailiffs also say
that their business has been ruined during the last few years.”

The School Concert.
Tur entertainment given by the teachers and pupils of the Upper Prince Street School, came off last evening in the main hall of their building. The pupils of the
| higher grades occupied the tiers of seats to
the left of the Chairman; all the other available space was taken by the large audience present. Principal Mellish called upon W. E. Dawson, Esq., to preside. The programme was then proceeded with, and required fully two hours to render it. On the whole, il was somewhat too long. There are some things, even good things, of which The one leaves you with a sense of relish, the other with an uneasy feeling of satiety. The teachers were certainly generous with the measure they meted out for the small admittance fee, but they almost erred in their estimate of the receptive capacity of their hearers.
| Of a performance which contained so |many pieces it is impossible to speak in | detail. The pupils sang in concert a num- | ber of popular airs, chiefly patriotic, such | as ‘‘Hurrah for Canada,” ‘*Scots wha hae,” **’Twas in Trafalgar’s bay,” and another | devoted to the glorification of England. |The recitations also were of a patriotic | turn, ‘‘Breathes there a man,’’ ‘‘O Cale- | donia, stern and wild.” It may be added too, that the opening organ solo by Miss Harvie was the French National Anthem, and the closing song, God Save the Queen. Here was truly an exhibition of all-em- bracins jy triotism. There is nothing narrow in the range of sympathies fostered in the Upper Prince Street School. And not only were the pieces well sung as pieces, but they had a moving, stirring effect upon, at feast, one member of the audience,
‘The most ambitious piece attempted by the pupils was the rendering the trial scene ‘in the Merchant of Venice. The seven or
eight who took part in this knew the dia-
logue well, and repeated it with vigor and 'self-possession. It must have required very great care to make the performance as successfulas it was. But the speaking was much too fast, and except in the case of the Shylock and the Duke, the speeches were, 'as in parliament, too much recited to the audience, and too little addressed to the | eharacters taking part. The young ladies had entire self possession, which is the first requisite in appearing on the platform; but |they did mot reach the point of self- | forgetfulness, which is needed to personate
a character.
We do not intend to comment on | the readings and singing of the teacher's | themselves. In one case the reader was
much annoyed by a chorus of boys outside who shouted in all keys that they had ‘‘one
At the | more river” to cross. It is to be hoped that
in the passage they will all get a thorough drenching. In another case an encore was

A Rome despatch says:—Cardinal Man- ning has been specially active and gracious in his reception of the American bishops. It is rumored that the Vatican is dis- pleased at the position taken by the Car- dinal, as it is believed his views with regard to the re-organization of the Ameri- can Episcopate differ from those of the Vatican.
A St. Petersburg despatch says:—The Nihilists are miserably weakened in men and means. They have lost many promi- nent members the last two pears. The arrest of Vera Philipora, is the worst blow of all. They now regard Lavroff, who is in Paris, as their chief, and the campaign will be conducted from without. In Russia the Nihilists are broken up into widely scatter- ed groups, and are driven to murder and robbery in order to obtain funds.
A special cablegram says the Popo is very decided in his opposition to the whole- sale exportation of Irishmen from Ireland, and is very outspoken in his condemnation of the British Government for permitting Orangemen to commit outrages upon Roman Catholics. It is reported that the Archbishop of Toronto has addressed to the Pope and Cardinals and to the Bishops of Lreland a long letter on the loss of souls in America, consequent on the wholesale and impoverished emigration.
The new and thrifty town of Pallman, near Chicago, lies on a flat prairie, and the problem of drainage, which is so difficult to solve in a great many places, had to be met in Pullman. The following is the one adopted, and it is said to be satisfactory in its working and profitable in ita results. Sewers are built to empty into a sunken tank, from which the sewage is pumped through a twenty-inch main to a farm three miles away. The system cost $80,000; the farm yields a profit of $8,500 a year.

British News Notee.
The recent rioting in Londonderry is to be made the subject of an official investiga- tion.
The London Times, of October 25, con- tained a letter from an engineer describing and highly praising the state of the Cana- dian Pacitic Railway from Port Arthur westward.
The Jilustrated London News, of October 20, contained a full page of sketches at Rat Portage and on the Winnipeg River, en- titled, ‘‘Sketches on the Canadian Pacific Railway.” They were accompanied by a very eulogistic notice of the progress of this great work.
The Pall Mall Gazette states that the Government will probably introduce, next session of Parliament, a Household Suffrage bill, to apply to both town and country in all parts of Great Britain and Ireland. A like bill for the redistribution of seats in the House of Commons will probably fol- Jow.
Lord Chief Justice Coleridge consulted Mr. Charles Russell and other leading members of the English bar the other day regarding the differences of procedure in the High Courts of Justsce of England and America. One of the points discussed was the admission of foreign lawyers to practise before English courts.

During the month of October the ship- ments of cattle from Canada to the United Kingdom amounted to 5,886 head, and the shipment of sheep to 12,683. Under the rigorous system of inspection adopted by the Department of Agriculture the ship- ments of the month have been free from any scheduled disease. The farmers and others interested in this trade have warmly supported the efforts of the department.
In the Moncton cotton mill a woman who can manage four looms earns six dollars a week, anda man who can manage six earns nine dollars aweek. But the mere fact that cotton mill operatives are paid at these rates will not prevent the veracious chronicler who says the Finance Minister thinks cigars are made of lard, from repeat- ing his story that they earn only twenty- five cents a day.
