| To Prince Edward Island and Return.
(Prom the Chianecto Post, May lt.)
During the past few weeks we have Visit- | ed portions of the five Provinces of the} : Duminion. “To some of these we went for! pleasure and found what we songht; to! Prinee Edward Island we wentin response | |to the eall of duty. Oar aged and henored | sire was called to his reward and we reached | home just soon enough to attend the funeral | For fifteen years a soldier in the British Army he served his country well and faith- fully and for over thiity years a soldier in Immanvel’s Arms his record is one of ear- nest and active labor as a Local Preacher) and Sabbath School teacher. He died as| he had Jived— well.
As the steamer did not come over on the 25rd ult., and anxious to get to the Island as quickly as possible, we crossed in a schooner in company with thirteen others who weie returning tothe Island. Some of these were from the lamber camps on the Metapedia and State of Maine, and some from far-off Manitoba, but all seemed glad to get home again. Indeed, several expressed their firm resolve to settle down and give up rembling as it did not pay. And judging from the statements of one very clever young fellow, Winnipeg and the West generally have some serious drawbacks which largely counterbalance their much talked of advantages.
lmmense quantities of produce and large numbers of horses and cattle are being ship- ped from the Island, and the trade in these is nothing to what it will be. Such land, so easily cultivated, is hard to find, and yield can be immensely increased. No one need go abroad for good farming lands, and ‘the powers that be” certainly have a duty te discharge in directing the attention of intending settlers to the facilities afforded in the Maritime Provinces.
, The N. P. is not as popular on the Island as here, for the people depend on farming rather than manufacturing. Still, to say it is unpopular and ruinous is all nonsense, and none know that better than those who talk so much about it. Factories will be started, indeed have been started, and we heard of companies to be formed at once for the carrying on of the manufacture of cheese and starch. Others will follow and the day is not far distant when the popula- tion of ‘‘the Garden of America” will be double what it is now.
The Cape Railway is a burning question just now, not indeed whether Amherst or Sackville is to be the Junction with the Intercolonial, but whether County Line or North Wiltshire will be the point to tap the P. E. Island Railway. As the latter is much nearer Charlottetown and passes through a more thickly settled region, it is

Fodder Corn.
Govt. Stock Farm, Ch’town, May 11, ’83., A. Gourlie, Esq.:
Drar Srr.—Concerning Fodder Corn I may say thatif the ground is fit the Ist of June would be the right time to sow, In putting it in we use the gang plough, but I would ad-| vise to sow in every second furrow. A man | following the plough should sow in the faur-| row an amount equal to half the thickoess of, garden peas which would be equal to two half bushels per acre.
| The horse hoe should be run through the same as for potatoes and a slight moulding.
Everything we have on the farm seems to be very fund of it and I think the farmer who; sows one bushel this year will sow double as much next year. Frost will not trouble it.
I am your obedient servant,
Francis Bet.

| The St. John Sun says thatthe fears ‘expressed in some quarters that cotton ‘manufacturing in Canada bids fair to be | overdone, are scouted by those who have ‘taken the trouble to inform themselves; | with respect to the possible production and | the extent of the market; and a writer in| the Toronto Globe treating of this subject, gives some interesting figures, from which | we take the following:—Atthe close of 1878, about 150,000 spindles were in opera- | tion in Canada; while up to July, 1882, the| total number in operation, building and | projected, was about 400,000. The total number in Great Britain is about 55,000,-| 000, aud the total in the United States in| the vicinity of 17,000,000, or one spindle in| every three of her population, while Canada| with 400,000 spindles, and 4,600,000 inhab-| itants, has but one spindle to twelve of her| population. The United States exports some staple lines of cotton, but imports of manufactured cotton about three times more than she exports. If the United States requires 16,000,000 spindles to partly supply the home consumption, Canada must require an equal proportion, or say 1,600,000 spindles, not allowing for the! annual increase of population. The impor-| taticn of manufactured cotton goods for 1878 was $7,500,000, for 1881, $10,500,000. and for 1882 a trifle under $12,000,000, in addition to the large output of our mills which may be put down at 250 per cent.

The hearing in the case of the men charged with having been connected with the dynamite conspiracy was resumed at Liverpool on the 22nd. The proceedings consisted of offering of evidence showing thé connexion of the prisoners with the ex- plorion in the gas works at Glasgow. The couasel for Deasy and Fianagan protested that this did not concern their clients. A policeman testified thet he followed O'Con- nor in London, March 24th ; saw him ex- amine the Houses of Parliament and West- minster Abbey. The hearing was adjourn- ed.
Lord Dufferin has arrived in England, Prior to leaving Cairo he made a_ speech, which, underneath a light and sportive tone, is of deep consequence. Addressing the Evropeans whe now hold official pests in Egypt, he bade them recollect that they are, after all, subordinates, and then pro- ceeds: ‘‘You ought to remember to take a hint from your wives, who, in spite of an assumed submissiveness of d«meanor, lead you along in the way in which you ought to go.” The meaning is obvious. European officials are to obtain‘u h influence over their Egyptian supericrs ¢s will render them mere puppets in their hands. In other words, England is to be the real ruler of the country, not only inthe Khedival Council Chamber, but by gaining control over the entire administrative machinery. And this, after all, is perhaps the best and most politic manner of governing the land of the Phareahs.

A Chinese gentleman bearing the name of Ton Kin Sing. who owns a farm of 100, 00C acres at Tn Sin, is making a bold ven- ture. He has imported from England a consignment of high bred cattle with which to regenerate the vative bovine race. This
venture is a hazardous one, for supposing ne cows escape the perils of the sea
voyage, and the tramp of eight Lundred miles up the country from Shanghai to Tin sin, it will need all the prestige of -the name of a popular Chinaman to preserve the new comers from that jealousy which the Celestials usually exhibit for all ex- traneous products, whether in the shape of man or beast. It is not so very long since the foreigners who opened coal mines in China were imperatively ordered to desist fur fear that the devil should escape from the open shafts. And some of the natives will undoubtedly regard the imported cattle as dangerous as the horse which brought about the fall of Troy.
The 24th was a gala day in Brooklyn. Throughout the city there appeared a gen- eral surrender of business to sight-seeing and celebration one way or another. The main business avenues, heights and many streets were decked most gaily with flags and bunting, and flowers for the bridal with the city over the river. Public buildings, private houses, street cars, wagons and

Apvices from Barbadoes state that the’ price of molasses has declined from 26c, the highest point touched since the opening of the season, to 2ic, at which figure the market is firm. Jn Montreal, sales have becn made’ of about 200 puncheons of Barbadoes at 47}c, | and a lot of 299 puncheons was disposed of by | one of the banks at about 45¢ per imperial gallon. Stocks are now said to be well con-| centrated, being mostly in the hands of one tirm, and higher prices will probably be the order of the day. A considerable portion of the 299 barrels lot was purchased for ship-| ment. The Gazetie quotes the market quiet’ but steady at 47ic for Barbadoes.
tions were most profuse and elegant. In the harbor flags flew from all shipping. Four war vessels lay in a row off Governor's Is- land flying the national colors. The navy yard and all ships along New York and Brooklyn front were decked with bunting. The exercises at the opening of the bridge were held on the Brooklyn side, and opened with music by the 22nd regiment band and prayer by the Rt. Rev. Bishop Littlejohn. The presentation of an address on the part of the trustees was then made by Wu. ¢ Kingsley, vice president. Responses were made by Mayors Low, of brooklyn, and Edson, of New York ; orations by Hon. Abram 8S. Hewett and Rev. Richard 8. Storrs, D. D., followed.
