Charlottetown as Seen by a Live American. WHAT THE EDITOR OF THE CAPE ANN ** ADVERTIZER”’ SAW AND NOTED.

Soon we boarded the well appointed train | ‘of the narrow gnage road of the Prince’ Edward Island Railway, under supervision | ‘of James Coleman, Erq., a very efficient: manager and affable gentleman. The road |

runs to the landing, and we found quite a

1

the arrival of the steamer and departure cf| ‘the train, an ever interesting event to all Island residents in every quarter of the wide world.

The ride of forty-nine miles to Charlotte - town is through many nice farms, but for the most part is not through the cultivated nor most attractive country, still it is very, very pleasant, and the train well filled and much enjoyed by the chatty passengers, consisting of tourists, and many natives coming home on visits. The residents are all very civil and obliging people, and easily distinguished by their frank and unassum- ing manners.

Charlottetown we find in the gloaming to be a much larger town (or city it is,) than we supposed. We arrive and land amid a crowd at the station who always welcome all arrivals. A Rankin House coach in waiting conveyed us at once to the hotel presided over by Johr. Davies, where supper was soon had, and a nice broiled fresh mackerel seemed to appease the hunger of the tired traveller, with the possible excep- tion of one, who, when the waiter men- tioned mackerel, looked up with much disgust and the query, ‘is that all you have?’ causing a hearty laugh from the rstof the party. These mackerel tasted good any way—possibly ovr friend had had too many mackerel.

The hotels are small, and are over crowded every night by tourists and com- mercial men, and it is hard to get good rooms, We should say the time as come for more convenient and modern hotel accommodations, if the country desire peo- ple from the States to make a tour of this plearant Island.

We'l appointed hote!s aro a crying need all over the Maritime Provinces, being few and far between. The style, comfert, service and pleasure of a good home-like hotel hes a great deal to do and is a strong inducement for visitors and tourists to make this long trip, which in the near future, with the_increasing means of im- proved and better transportation, will prove a popular and delightful experience.

One pleasant feature of Charlottetown is in its noble square, in which are all its public buildings, consisting of its City Offices, Government Houses, House of Par- liament and Court House, all so arranged as to make, as it were, a public park which, when its fine new Post office building, now being rebuilt of brick, with Nova Scotia freestone trimmings, is finished, will make a system of public works which no city need be ashamed of, as the walks will be properly laid out, and the beautiful bright flowers which seem to bloom brighter here than with us, help to render the picture ever pleasant, ever fair.

Subsequently we called on Mayor Henry

Beer, and find him a very courteous gentle- man, elected this year on the water issue which closely divided the eiectors and citizens. Mr. Beer, being a strong water man, is expected to be able to introduce system of water works ere the year closes, and has so far succeeded aa to secure a vote authorizing the city to pay $50 per hydrant for fifty hydrants, for fre purposes to any contractor. Here is achance for Mr. Nor- man, as no doubt the Mayor would be very glad tohave him come down and look the matte rover. Charlottetown ‘is a level flat city, and is so destitute of water that many of the citizens have the water brought to them by water carts and pay one cent per bucket. One citizen told me it cost him about $175 for his water, which is quite a tax, which an economical water system would obviate. —_———— [EEE

Colonel Ouimet Explains.

WHY HE LEFT BIS COMMAND—THE 657TH IN THE CAMPAIGN—CALUMNIES REFUTED.

At a banquet given in Montreal, on the 20th inst.,Colonel Ovimet, in the course of his response to the toast of the volunteers, said :—The toast of the volunteers used to be a formal toast, but since the Northwest campaign it has become a toast of honor It was the first time that the volunteers of Canada had an opportunity of showing that they were not mere holiday soldiers, and they nobly responded to the call of their country when its integrity was threat. ened. We, as French Canadians, having the benefit of our institutions under the Government of England had reason to be proud that we were amongst the first called out to fight for our country, for it showed that Canada had confidence in our lvyalty, and we showed that we were eager to go to the front and as willing as any other volunteers to do our daty to our country. I am glad to say that the 65th, as the rapresentatives of the Franch element in this Province, did honor to their nationality, and did their duty in the garrison or in the battle field. I wish to take this opportunity in public, in justice tu my regiment, to my compatriots and to myself, to reply to accusations that I

Major-General Strange made a misteke, ard from a military and political point of view it would have been at the time injadicious for me to make any statement in my defence. now take the opportunity to do. Since that time G-»neral Strange has been kind enough to contradict the rumors, and with the approval of the Minister of Militia, Gen. Middleton and my friend Col. Hughes, I now make this ex- planation. When I returned on my mission the people learned [ was sick, ani so I was. Remembering the many sacrifices | had made; remembering what | did for the maintenancs of the 65th, as being the only French regiment in Montreal; remembering that I did this for my country’s sake, it was enough to make me sick to hear some of the population of this country brand me asa coward and a deserter. The 65th, during the campaign, were worthy the nobie patrimony of their race, and 1 hope that the Canadian people will have the esprit de corps to make it one of the most etticient regiments in Canada.

More Northwest Coal.

At Crowfoot Crossing, 800 miles west of

Winnipeg, coal has recently been discover- ed of an excellent quality and in almost inexhaustible quantities. The coal deposits in that distant section are practically valuable not only as they ean be utilized for fires and motive power in the country east of that. And that it can so be utilized is due entirely to the building of the Canadian Railway. Yet, if Mr. Bloke could have had his way, that railway would not have been built west of Manitoba for years, if ever. As to the recent coal deposits discovered, an exchange says: «It was thonglt that coal existed there, and experienced men were employed by the company, and at last, after going 183 feet into the bowels of the earth, success crowned their efforts, for a seam of coal fonrteen feet thick was discovered. The intelligence was wired to the officers of the company here, who have been keeping the matter quiet for certain reasons. Several boxes of coal arrived here to-day, and were examined by a number of experienced gentlemen. They pronounced it an excel- lent specimen of anthracite coal. Many city dealers who have large stocks on hand are much excited over the find, because there seems little duubt that there will be an entire revolution in the coal question in this country. ‘Some think the coal fields just discovered will rival the coal ficids of Ohio and Pennsylvania.”

A few days ago the Chief of Police

received a printed circular from the Uniled States giving the name and description of

Walter W. Wanzer, jr., wanting in Fra- mingham, Me., for obtaining money under false pretences. The circular states that Wanzer deposited $1,500 in the National Exchange Bank, Boston, Aug. 11th. The

bank officers wrote to the National Bank of> Framingham, Me., the same day, stating

that the money had been deposited and also enclesing Wanzer's signature. A telegram

was received ou Monday by the Framingham

Bank purporting to come from the National

Exchange Bank, of Boston, stating that

they had omitted to send money by express,

and requesting the Framingham Bank to

pay Wanzer $5,000 and place the sum to

the credit of the Fremingham Bank. A

section man on the Thursday following the receipt of the telegram found that the

telegraph wire about a mi‘e and a half from

West Framingham, had been ‘‘tapped,”

and the instrument left on the pole.

Wanzer had sent the message, and then obtained the money at the Bank —Gilvbe.
