Henry MM. Stanley.
Tue fate of Henry M. Stanley, th: famous African explorer, is stil! uncertain sen
and “an expedition is to be
oat to see whether he is living or dead The expedition of which Stanley wa in command, was, as will be remembereo for the relief of Emin Pascha, another es plorer, whom it was said was at the time in dire straits in Central Africa. The sta was wade from Cape Town in March, 1887 Proceeding to the north of the Congo the expedition went up the stream a distance i about thirteen hundred miles, or until the mouth of the Aruwini River was reached. Up to this point the course was through » previously explored sketch of country, ane along which the travelling could be near!) all done by water. The most difficult par of the journey was, however, yet to come

Congo waterway miles to be made by caravan unexplored country, inhabited by unknown tribes, before the outposts of him for whom they were in search could be reached.
The first of the outposts referred to was expected to be at Wadelai, a station fairly well known and within reach of Emin Bey. Stanley's problem was to cross those three hundred and fifty miles of terra imcognita between the Aruwini onthe Congo waters and Wadelai, in the Equatorial region, the waters of which drain into the Nile. His plan was to form at the Aruwini, an in- camp, before starting out for
This camp was to be in a@ sense
trenched Wadelai. the base of his operations, a stronghold to which he might retire should he meet in- superable obstacles ir his march, anda atorehouse of supplies.
In forming well as in his overland march, Stanley was
this entrenched camp, as to have the assistance of one Tippoo Tib, an individual whe is worthy of special mention in view of the fact that if Stanley has, as some people fear, been put to death, the blame will probably be laid ar his door. This Tippoo Tib is said to be one of the most powerful potentates in the Congo region. Being an Arab and a slave dealer he has succeeded by the peculiar in- telligence natural to his race, and the eruelty and profits which are the accom- paniments of this calling,in building up for himself a reputation, a fortune and a pres- tige, recognized far and wide in the torrid swainps and plateaux of the Dark Continent.
Stanley, it is said, had reason to doubt Tippoo Tib’s friendly feelings, but formed the alliance notwithstanding. Tip- poo was to fortify the camp at Aruwimi, and with this understanding Stanley left the Aruwini for Wadelai, where he was to meet Emin Bey. Since that time nothing deinite has been heard from Stanley or his dcubdtfal ally, Tippoo Tib.
‘hose who know Stanley, however, claim that he is all right, and will be heard from in yood time. They say he is a man of wonderful pluck and energy, and will not be easily disposed of. Notwithstanding these facts, however, considerable uneasi- ness is felt as to his safety in view of recent reports of disaster that have come from Africa.
Life Insurance.
_
Tae Montreal Gazette, in the course of a lengthy article under the above heading, remarks that ‘‘the extraordifary increase during the last tem years in the amount of life insurance earried by the Canadian peo- ple must be credited to some extent to the prosperous state of trade and the improved position of wage earners. Between 1875 and 1878 the amount of insurances in force actually foll off from $35,000,000 to $84,- 752,000, and it was not until 1830 that the remarkable expansion which is still pro- ceeding began. In the brief space of seven years the Canadian life risks have more than doubled, augmenting from $91,272,000 at the close of 1880 to $191,694,000 at the close of last year. A prosperous condition of general trade implying larger incomes by wage earners and merchants does not in it- self afford sufficient explanation of this re- markable expansion of life insurance, and, we believe, perhaps as potent an influence has been the attraction of large profits which accumulated earnings have enabled the companies to offer. There has been throughout these seven years a sharp com-
petition between the life companies operat- ing on this continent, out of which have
grown various attractive forms of policy
calculated to entice insurance, and although
the nominal rates have not been reduced, the dividends to
actual cost of insurance. and limited payment plans, been greatly developed.

policy holders have materially increased, thus lessening the The endowment too, have And yet there ave, after ell, levy then » hundsed thousand

Cenatians imsured, namely 84,208, or about one in every sixty of the population, In 880 only 33,557 lives were insured, or .bout one in every one hundred and forty f the population, a really wonderful ex-
cension of business. One gratifying feature i the returns just issued by the super.n* tendent of insurance, is the success of the ome companies. In all twenty-nine com- “nies are vow operating in the Dominion, f whom eleven are Canadian, ten British
cad eight American. The Canadian com- vanies have uninterruptedly enlarged their musiness from $21,957,000 in 1875 to $101,- 96,000 in 1887; the American companies uusiness fell off from $43,596,000 in i885 » $33,643,000 in 1880, since when it ha
nereased to $61,734,000 at the close of Ins! year, while the British companies by slow »rogression have carried their business uj rom $19,455,000 to $28,163,000 in the
welve years.”

The Liquor Traffic. In au interview with Hon. Wm. MacDou- gall on the liquor tratlic, the conclusioa ar- rived at by that gentleman is that the question, so far as legislative enactments are concerned, narrows itseli to these alterna. tives : the amemdment of the existing laws io the direction of greater stringency, or the difect control by Government of the importa. rion, Mauutacture and sale of spirituous liq- ors. A great many laws have been passed in various countries for the control of the liq- or traffic, and many of them have becouie ob- sylete for want of public support. Mr. Mac- Dougall admits that ander the Gothenburg aystem, if it wert adopted in Canada, the il- licit manufacture or sale of spirits could no be entirely prevented, but he maintains thai no matter what kind of liquor law may be in force, whether a prohibitory enactment or licensing system, there will always be those who will try to make money by aelling liqao illegally. Parliament is no more able to a law which will of itself prevent liquor than it is to pass a law which will seJling robbery or incendiarism. The prohibitionists want nothing short of prohibition, but against pio- hibition in the shape of the Scott Act the eyvuntry seems to be turniug ite face.—ZHr.

Davies, formerly of Reddin’s Drug Store, who has been in Florida, for up- wards of a year past, arrived home on Saturday evening. Rev. W. B, Hinson has returned to Monc- ton from Summerside very much improved in health. He occupied the pulpit of the First Baptist Church as usual yesterday,
Rev. L. G. Macneill returned yesterday
after a month's vacation in P. E. Island. Mr. MacNeill reports the Island looking. it prettiest just now, end the crops giving great promise. - St. John Sun. Mr. R. A. Anderson, of the well-known real estate and insurance firm of R. A. Amderson & Co., Vancouver, B. C., is visiting his rela- tives and friends on the Island © Before re- turning to Vaneouver Mr. Anderson will visit Boston, New York, and other cities.
i <p ip Mack eke... — Mackerel fishermen along some parts of the Island did fairly well last week. On Friday some boats off Red Point, and be- tween there and East Pvuint, took in four and tive hundred to a boat, Off Souris and Grand River the same day rone were caught. On Saturday, a few were taken off these places, the quality of which are said tu be unsur- passed, beat and vessel aciners are doing little or nothing. The wisdom of rely- ling less upon seining and more upon the old hook and line plan of fiahing was never more apparent than this year. It looks as thongh boat seining by our shore fishermen would have to be abandoned altogether for the older and cheaper mode of hovk and line.
It is stated that during the year 1886 there were in the city of New York 2,418 delirium tremens patients brought into one hospital. Of these 2,418 delirium tremens patients 1,950 were men and 468 were women, a average of nine women and thirty-five men for every week during the year. This statement is taken from the Christian Statesman, which adds, ‘if the result ot one hospital tells such a tale, what revelations would the graveyard make if ne marbles would tell the truth 7?” ,

This year the Provin- ctal Exhibition of Nova Scotia is to be held st Truro, which is but a small place com- pared to Charlottetown, and yet they have supplemented the Government grant of 34,000 by adding some $3,000, making a total on their prize list of $7,078.25.

Queen Square Gardens.
_—-.
Srr,—The new idea of lighting the garden | square with elevated electric illuminators 18 | + long step forward in the direction of popular improvements. The effect upon the floral displays will be a revelation few eld have anticipated before Arthur New. bery spread his magic touches over the litt'e public domain, smoothing its roughness, geometricing its footways, emiching its soil, aad finally, after turning chaos into order, leaving the prints of his skill and taste to emblaze wuver the most beautiful and even sward anywhere produceable.
It is no ase longing for an enclosing fence to do the flowers honor—that will come by- and-by —or raking up the short-comings of those who ought to know better than sleep st their posts and leave their duties undone, but what we can do, let us do. Let us em- ploy a band to play on the squ«re under the electric lights; let us get up promenad- ing on fine evenings,—in fact, let us utilize our park flowers, (the work of Mr. New- bery’s hands) and as there are some propos- ing a substantial recognition of the same, (in some form or another) let each in grati- tude promote so well earned an idea, and talk it up in communications.

The Jubilee Fund.
Sir,—I see that a meeting of the Jubilee Committee is to be held this evening to consider the advisability of handing vver the $200 surplus to the persons entrusted with the management of the proposed re- gatta. It is to be hoped that the com- mittee will not overlouk the claims of Queen Square when the matter is being discussed. The mopey is wanted for the proposed ** Jubilee” tountain, and to my mind it could hardly be put to a better use, The fountain will be permanent—the re- yatta means an hour or two of sport. Which is the better ?
