Fatal Boating Accident,

Two Men Drowned.

—

We regret to learn that a fatal boating accident occurred at the entrance of Char- lottetown Harbor this afternoon. Four men, viz: M. Dooley, F. Coyle, Art O'Neil! and Thomas Donovan were engagad in hauling in lobster traps when the boat upset. One sank immediately, and the other started to swim for the shore, but sank when within a short distance of it, The other two clung to the boat, and were rescued by the Messrs. Taylor, of St. Peter's Island. Of the two who are saved one is Donovan, and from the description it is thought the other is Coyle.

The Irish Situation. ENGLAND WITHIN MEASURABLE DISTANCE

OF CIVIL WARS.’’—THK ULSTER ORANGE-

MEN TO BE DISARMED.

New York, May 9,—Justin McCarthy, Home Ruler, cables that there is a great re- action against the Chamberlain and Har- tington doctrine. The debate on the second reading is sure to last a long time, perhaps two or three weeks. Gladstone is quietly preparing for a dissolution, if such steps be necessary.

T. P. O'Connor cables that the feeling of the members of the cabinet against Cham- berlain is accentuated by the publication of his letter to Bolton. Gladstone’s speech on Monday will not go beyond the position he assumed in his recent manifesto, He will show that the affirmation of the princi- ple of self-government is the only question for the House to decide at the second read- ing; and that amendments and comprom- ises belong to the committee stage. Hav- ing thus indicated the willingness of the government to consider modifications, and having defined the time for discussing them, he will call upon the liberals to stand by him, at all events for the second reading. The retention of Irish members at Westminster will be declared an abso- lutely open question, but no terms of set- tlement on this or any other issue will be made until the principle of the bill is accepted ocr _ rejected. James O'Kelly, home rule M. P., cables : Chamberlain is acting in concert with Lord Churchill, and both are conspiring to pro- voke a civil war in Ulster, if that is neces- sary to prevent granting home rule to Ire- land. Quantities of arms have been distributed to Ulster farmers and laborers. The government has introduced an arms bill with the view at the proper moment to disarm the Orange body in case they should pass from threats to action Wolseley and Beresford’s connection with this con- spiracy has been known for a long time and though it may be denied, the correc- tion of Johnstone’s rather foolish state- ment may be relied upon.

A Whig member of Parliament cables that pending the decision of the Irish question, members refuse to listen to any- thing else. He believes the second reading of the home rule bill will be carried by a small mojority, but the land purchase measure will undoubtedly be rejected. The liberal party will not have that at any price, because the constituencies are up in arms against it. Nor would home rule pass but for Gladstone’s adroitness in hold- ing out a prospect of modifying it in com- mittee to an extent to satisfy his supporters. Rumors of Lord Wolseley’s declaration are probably exaggerated, but quite true, and he makes no secret of his sympathies with the men of the north. In any case be assured there is great trouble impending in Ulster, and there would be little inaccuracy in applying Gladstone’s words on a former occasion to the present state of affairs: ** England is within measurable distance of civil war.”

Apvice To Moruers,—Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup should always be used when children are cutting teeth. It relieves the little sufferer at once; it produces natural, quiet sleep by relieving the child from pain, and the little shrub awakes as ‘‘bright as a button.” Itis very pleasant to taste. It soothes the child, softens the gums, allays all pain, regulates the bowls, and is the best known remedy for diarrhes, whether arising from teething or other causes. Twenty-fixg | cents a bottle. Be sure and ask for ‘‘Mrs Winslow’s Soothing Syrup,” and take no other kind. [feb 4e0d wkly

It ia the opinion of the lobby, that if de- feated, Gladstone will resign, and ask for a dissolution of Parliament, but that the Queen will susamon Lord Hartington to form a Cabinet.

The Indian and Colonial Exhibition.

At the opening of the Exhibition His Royal Highness tha Prince of Wales, on be- half of the Royal Commissioners of the Ex- hibition presented Her Majesty, the Queen, with an address, to which she was pleased to reply as follows :

“I receive with the greatest satisfaction the address which you have presented to me on the opening of this Exhibition. I have observed with a&warm and increasing interest the progress of your proceedings in the execution of the duties in- trusted to you by the Royal Commission, and it affords me sincere gratification to witness the successful result of your judicious and unremitting exertions in the magnificent exhibition which has been gathered together here to-day. I am deeply moved by your reference to the circumstances in which the ceremony of 1851 took place, and I heartily concur in the belief you have expressed that the Prince Consort, my beloved husband (had he been spared) would have witnessed with intense interest the development of his ideas, and would, I may add, have seen with pleasure, our son taking the lead in the mayement of which he was the originator. I cordially concur with you in the prayer that this undertaking may be the means of imparting a stimulus to the commercial interest and intercourse of all parts of my domin- ions, by encouraging the arts of peace and in- dustry, and by strengthening the bonds of union which now exist between every part of the Empire.”
