Public Meeting at Montague. LITERAL FULFILEMEMT OF THE UNION DEMANDED.

A public meeting was eld at this place last evening On motion, Duncan Mae- dona'd, E q., was appointed chairman, the undersigned, secretary.

R. W. Sprague, Esq., was the first person to address the meeting. He spoke principally on local wants, and submitted ‘a petition to the meeting for signa‘ures, asking a grant from the Provincial Govern- ment towards the maintaining of a Steam Tug Boat to ply on Montagne River, and make connection with the Railway termin- us at Georgetown. He eaid it could be proved that, as far as Putlic Works t Montague were concerned (clear of high- ways), the Government had been refunded for every dollar's eutlay.

Messrs. A. ©. McDonald, M. J. Fitz- Gerald and others supported Mr. Spragne’s stat menta.’ Hon. 8. Prowse, Jas. Clow,

TERMS OF

|for; and how those terms are now being ; carried out with a cost ‘to the Federal Gov- /ernment of over One hundred miliion dol- ‘lars Mr. Prowse referred to the excessive | taxation imposed on us after a promise had | been granted tothe Province that our tariff | would not exceed 15 percent. Mr. Prowse | cons'dered himself as loyal a subject as any ,in Queen Victoria's Dominioo, yet he would with pleasure ‘‘hail the Stars and | Stripes to-morrow, sooner than see the ; promises and agreements with this province of the Dominion of Canada and Great Britain broken and unfulfilled.

A. C. McDonald, Esq_, fully agreed with Mr. Prowse’s remarks, end would support the resolutions. He was very sorry we had not a shorthand reporter te report Mr.

| Prowse’s able speech,

E. T. Wickwire, E: by R. W. Sprague, resolution, which was ously:

Resolved, That this meeting hereby instruct the chairman and secretary to communicate with the Sheriff and request him, at an early

-» moved, seconded y-» the following carried unanim-

Esq., M. L. C., and Thos. Annear, E q., M, L. ©., all spoke fovorably to the

and |

QR Becks che i Oi + petition and promised their influence ofn .. "votes to secure this grant, as they consi‘er- |

ed, on hearing the argaments used, that Montague was fully trade facilitks Mr. Annear thought Montague was worse off in this matter, at present, than it was fifteen years ago

Dr. Robertson heped the Government wovll at least see the necessity of duing just.ce to Montague in the matter of river communication. He hoped we had seen the end of promises, and that the prayers of the petitioners would be. granted without further excuses. He desired to call the attention of the meeting to the non-iulfill- ment of our terms of union in regard to efficient and continuons communication with the Mainlind. He hoped to see Strong resolutions bearing on this question passed by this merting, and also at meet- ings throughout the country. The people should stir in this matter, and demand im- mediate action on the part of the Dominion Goverument, The Goveroment, for the past four years, bad net granted anything as an eyperiment or otherwise to fulfil our just terms of union,

Mr. J. M. Aitken moved, seconded hy R. W. Sprague, Eeq., the fcllowing resolu- tion which was carried unanimously

| Whereas, By the Ternis of Confederation under which this Island consented and «greed t»>a union with the Dominion of Canada, the D miaion Government were bound by section 7 sub-secti-n J, to asaume and defray all the chargs for the following services, viz :—‘‘: fhi- cient Steam Service for the conveyance of rails and passeng-rs to be established and maintained between tne Island aod the main- }Jand of the Dominion, Winter and Summer, | thus pacing the Island in continuous com- /munication with the Intercolonial Kailway and Railway system of the Dominion ”

And Whereas, Ter years have now pass«d since the said union was effected during which \the Dominion Government have enj vy+d ali

MEN’ ~ F 1 R qa APS | the revenues and advantages contracted for by bo s Jad Jz WI, the said Terms, but have not in any particular

; attempted t» fulfil their part of the conditions ' stipulated for by the said sub-: ection,

And Whe-eas, The Hizh contractinz parties to the Terms of Confederation were the Gov- ernment of Great Britain, the Par'iament and Goverement of Canada and the Legislature acd Government of Prince Edward Island ;

Therefore Resolved, ‘that the Provincial Government are hereby resp<ctfullv but earnestly requested to adopt such prompt and constitutional measures as wil] e: force the Terms as agreed upon by a!l the High contracting parties, and to demand on the part of the Province compensation for the mary

years we have been deprived of our righta.

He (Mr. Fi'zersld)

| thought that, in the meantime, commnuni-

cation could be maintained for a month or two later and earlier fall and spring, be- tween Georgetown and Pictou, than by any other ronte, He would therefore submit the following resolation, seconded by Mr. Danie] Riley, and carried unanimously :—

Whereas, The steamer “ Northern Light”

} has proved the feasibility of navigating the

| Straits for many weeks later and earlier, in the | fall and spring,sthan in fi rer years; | And Whereas.-The manver in which the }** Northern Light” is managed during the | present season is productive of grest injury to P. Be Island. especial'y to King’s County, ar po attempt has been made since the 5th inst. to cross the Straits, although the difficnities do not appear gr ater than ip former years; Therefore Resolv d, That, in the opinion of this meetiig. the Dominion Government should, without delay, provide a powerful 'screw steamer, prepe ly modelled, of twice the power and capacity of the ‘* Northern Light.” to run in conjunction with the ‘‘North- Light.” between Georgetown and the Mainland. for the late fall and early spring communication.

The Hon. S. Prowse was the principal speaker on these resolutions. Mr. Prowse made an able and very vigorous speech in their support. He considered both politi- cal parties were to blame in this matter, and thought the people should (clear of party) force the question on the Dominion. He wonld sac:itice party to-morrow if stood in the wey of justice being granted to the Island on thi: question. He would not accept $5090,¢ 00 00 (five hundred thousand dollars) a year in lieu of our terms. He considered the nonfulillment of those very terms and the fulfilimens of the terms to B.itish Columbia, was the means of draw- ing the young men—the bone and sinew— of this Province away from it. He con- sidered if we had continuous communica- tion with the mainland, manufactures would spring up all over this Province, and | thereby give employment to our peonle. |Mr, Prowse referted to the manner in which ithe Dominion Government rent an avent to British Col. mw ia te sound the Govorn- ;ment and people to see if some easier terms ‘could not be had, than was granted to that |province; aod how the prople of that pro- | Vince bounded t wether in leagues, similar

ern

; | entitled to bett r!}

i

He considered |,

dav, to convene a county meeting at George- town. to take into cansideration the question of the literal falilment of the Terms of Union.

It was then moved and seconded that Mr. J. M, Aitken take the chair, after which R. W. Sprague, Esq., proposed, and M. J. Fitzgersld, Esq., seconded a vote of thanks to the chairman, which was duly acknowledged.

An Invention in Shoemaking.

It now looks asif poor mortals would soon have a chance to wear comfortable shoes, as a gentleman of Boston has in- vented a process which ig extremely simple in its work, but which .epables hand-sewed goods to be made within a few cents per pair of cheap machine work, For six months past, Mr. Lee E Moore has been making a shoe by a process which, it.is cal- culated, will revolutionize the entire bisi- ness. The process is very simple but de- cided'y practicable, as it ‘is equally appile able to ladies’ work as to t»at of heavy work for men. Heretofore in the manu- facture of hend-sewed work, the upper leather, which remuins after sewing the welt to the ieee sole, has either aa off or tacked down and the s at by the new method the vintlestahter having been fastened to the sole Gstardied back over the welt, and in toro is again sewed to the ourer sole, thus mrking the bout doubly strong, and making it virtually wate . [n case @ poor mner sols is used 8» that the sewing gives way, the welt still acts as a lever, and there is no possibility of the upper pulling ont. In the manufacture of common work for women-where machines are used, there isa rough seam left euthe inside of the shee, which is decidedly un- comfortable to the wearer, whereas if made by the process alluded to, the inside of. the hoot is left perfectly smooth. Then, again, by the old method, nails are used to a vreater or less extent in lasting, which in due time give the wearer immeasurable dis- comfort, but this is entirely obvivted © by the new process, as.no nails are nsedyas the upper does not reqnire to be fastened to the inner sole except by the sewing. Those who have investigated the process are loud in their praises, and compliment the in- ventor highly upon his success; and it is a fact that manufacturers of shoe machinery are already at work endeavoring to produce a machine which will accomplish the work which is now done by hand, and with a

good prospect of, Racpess.

Agricultural Notes.

Dors Poutrry Pay !—If proper care is taken of poulury there is no doubt that it pays. We cannot expect to make any business profitable unless we give it oar attention. A great many people feed their poultry regularly, but neglect to give them drink, and then say that it does not pay to keep poultry. The best drink for hens is sone milk, and if possible it should always be kept by them. Scraps of meat, fish skin, etc , are excellent for fowls. Do not feed on clear corn or meal, but vary their food as inuch as possible. In the summer feed once aday, but in the winter give them a second feed just before they go on the roost. Always give jast what they will eat up clean. Hens fed in this way will lay all winter,if they are of the right breed.

Mance on Horses —Mange is a disease of the skin which destroys the hair and produces intevse irritation, accompanied with very small watery blisters, which break and are rubbed into raw’ spots. It is caused by a vegetable parasite which grows inthe skin or by a« auiall insect which burrows in it, and there are two kinds, but both produce similar effects. The disease is contagious, and may be

dogs, or infected harness, or stalls or musty hay. The remedy ia to wash the skin with warm water and soap —whale-oil or carbolic soap is preferable; then apply an ointment, made as followa:—Four ounces of whaie-oil, one dram of creosote, ope ounce of salphur; grind the sulphur with a little oiland the creosote, and then gradually add the rest of the tar and oil; rub wellinto the skin after washing with warm water.

THE ORIGIN OF THE PoTaTO.—At the last meeting of the California A y of Sciences, Mr. John O. Lemmon rted the results of a summer's tour of ical explorations. among the mountain ranges along the Mexican frontier of Arizona. Among his disceveries were two or three varities of indigenous potatees, found grow- ing abundantly in high mountsin weadows surronnded by peaks attaining a heignt of 10 000 feet above the sea level. The tubers were about the size of walouts Mr. Lemmon brought home a supply which will be carefully cultivated. The Scientific Am*rioun remarks that thig interesting
