SUMMERSIDE'JOURNAL, THURSDAY,

New School.

On Saturday evening last. a large and influential meeting of the householders oi the eastern section of this town, was held tor the purpose of appointing Assessors and a Building Committee, to have a new school house erected. AlterColin Mchn- nan. Esq. had been called to the chair, the following gentlemen were nominated and elected to serve as Assessors:

Messrs. John I". Baker. Thos. Brehaut. Matthew Dcmnsey. Thomas Crabb, and Chas. B. Saunders.

A good deal of interest was manifested. if we may judge from the speeches made. The Committee were instructed to erect a Building 40 x 25. and of proportional height. They were also instructed to se- lcct a suitable site. “it: think this impor- tant matter is in good hands. and we trust cre long to see erected such a School houses as the iuhabituuts oi Sumuicrsidc may feel proud of.

AN Emigration scheme has been pro- puundcd by tho Intercoloniai Railway Commissioners. with the view of providing the extra labor which the works of the la- tercolonial Railway will require. It is certain thatthc prescnllahoi'ing population of the Dominion will not be able to supply the extra demand for labor that these works will necessitate, and no doubt its construc- tion will be the means of attracting large numbers ofemigrants. It is estimated that about 10,000 men. including laborers and artisans, will be rcquirl d during the next three or lourycars. or at lcast; while the work is going on. which will take that time. It is proposed to make arrangements by which every ninn employed on the Railway. who shall work taithiully and continuously a cried of atlcusttwe years. shall be cntitlct , as a bonus for his good conduct. to a great oi the ungrantcd lands of the Dominion. at from 50 to 100 acres. Such a plan as this will sctllc the count 'v at a more rapid rate than could otherwise be iiccouiplish'ed.

Acconmxo to announcement. an Euler- taiiiiuent was given in Central Hall on Tuesday evening last. in aid of the \\'hclau Memorial Fund. The amount realized was about £6.

0N Dun—That the Rector is preparing a dungeon under the Saiiits’ iiiquisition, to be furnished with the most approved iii- sirumcnts of refined torture. tor the Special benefit of the Sumincrside Grammar School Teacher. and when complete. ng nts of the Jesuits will be employed to kidnap the said podngogue. and placo him lliltlt‘l‘ the mild correction of their order.

WHY is the Rcctoi‘ of St. Dunstan‘s like one ol the Charlottetown newspapers?

llocanse Melt-ac. has proved him “an in- competent Examiner.”

Tins excuse made by the Government — so we are informed—for not establishing in Simi- iucrridc. a Registry of Dccds and other iiii- portant cillccs asked for by nearly the whole 1 opulution of Prince County, is that there is no proper and secure building here in which to kcrp them. If they had granted us the oillccs. there would be found. we doubt not, just as ctilcicntn. building lll which to keep Dccds. &c.. as Charlottetown could boast of when as old as Suniinersidc. The need of such ofllccs is felt every day, the inhabitants of the County are entitled to them. and thc Gorcriiiiicnt need not think to put them oil with such lame excuses.

” SOHOLASTIO ABILITIES."

'l‘uis is an age of Velcclpcdcs and Cartoons. Last week our contemporary noticed a cartoon on ” the situation" ot'the Rector and Mr. Mc- Rnc. We notice that Mr. McRnc is placed in an ultugt tlicr different position by a new pic- torial rcprcseiitatiou just got up, and photo~ graphed again by Mr. Forster. With the thistle in threatening proximity, the Teacher is forcibly reminding Mr. McDonald of the short-lived nature of earthly triumphs. with the words'“ You’ll not crow'long. old Cock ." this designation lowing bct'omc, we fear, iii- scparably attachcil to the Head of St. Dun- stan's by the first cartoon, wherein his friends rather iiicautiously represented him under the figure of a venerable rooster crowing over his enemy. But to return to “scholastic abili- ties," the Rector. frightened at the thistle. taken refuge behind the “Board.” with the cntrenty “Defend me." The Board. howcvcr. edging to one side, rcpllcs “ we can't." On the right-hand side of the Cartoon. the Rector is seen saying his lesson to Mr. Mcli:ic,——oiic he has not wcll learned, if we may judge by his answers. The question “ How do you conjugate who I" hciiiganswercd “110 supine.” " Where is the Shannon?" “ 1n Iiriniin." is the answer. “ Young Suminerside" at each end of the room, is seen conipussloniiling the deficiency of the new scholar. and asks “ Does his mother know '1’" dc. ansli iigingon the wall, witii “Shannon” and “Great. Britain" consplcuuurly printed, complete the curious picture. We commend its study to the Board of Education

The Latest Cartoon

Represents two prominent doctors—one po- litical. and the other medical—on the point of deplirturo to “ Boating." Beyond a couple of individuals in the distance, there is no one visible to say “ Fare-thec-well, and ifforercr. torevcr fare~thce-wcll." except a precocious looking rooster, which. standing on a town piimp.pours out his lumcutthus: ‘- Ynukcc- - doodle-don. Good-bye to you." Some “in- ducements” in the distance. and an attempt to represent Suuipicrsidc with the Union. Jack ilying. fill up the corners. Mr. Clark is the photographer.

Wt: have received no less tlinii tlirce com. inunications on the subject ofthe appointment of the new Judge. One of them we publish in this issue. They all say that Edward Palmer is the man. and at the same time cx- press the hope that a young man like .‘ir. Hensley. who has attained to such a lilin po» aitlon. will not new forsake his party. One writer from ilcdcque says '——" 1 have no doubt but that if Mr. chslcy Iivesn few years uiorc, he will yet occupy the important position of ClilefJustlcc of Prince Edward island."

'I‘iiir. report that a woman was killed in Lot 14. is not true. A woman named McNeil] was very badly beaten by some of her own relatives. but she ll still living. We learn that the parties who thus ill-treated the poor woman. are now in jail.

Several achooners laden with nuts. are l *- ing at the wharf here. all ready for are. we t- ing for the ice to clear out of the harbor and straits.

Tim House of Assembly was proroguod on Monday last. There was not much done since outlast. it was certainly a quiet ecs- nlnn, whatever else It may have been.

Some 01 the Colonial papers ccnsuro the Island authorities very much with regard to Dewey‘s execution. They all express the same opinion as was given by an emi- nent Lawyer in Charlottetown~“ that he was only guilty at manslaughter."

The House of Assembly when amending the I'll-lotion Law. gave Sumnicrsldo a polling division.

As you have given publicity to the Resolve of the Board of Education in your last issue, regarding my letter of the 18th of March last. the public will naturally expect a few words from me. I have already written to the Sec- rctury of the Board, that I shall only be too happy to appear before them when duly sum- moned—not questioning as to whether or not they linvc authority in citing inc thither. Can the Board be justified in condemning me without being heard in self-defence? Do the Board think that I shall ify any man at the expense of the truthl’ thii till the statements made in my lii'st letter are dis- proved, then I shall “cave in," but not till then. These statements 1 have witnesses enough, I think. to substantiate.

As to the censure of the Board—notwith- standing the strong language in which it is couched—1 iiiny say I still survive it; that my opinion in reference to the Rector's “schol- ustic abilities” is firmly the same; and that I helire public opinion is not in the slightest degree changed. Enough now.

Wiuiir I.“l‘lll)\'EMENTH.—Tlic Wharf of .l. 1.. lloluuiii. 14511., has undergone uthorough repair this spring. and in addition to it, a new block is being built adjoining the outside block. When this is completed, there will be a greater dcpili of water at the head of it. then there is at present at at the hcad of Queen's Wharf; besides it is much wider. and has ample accommodation for a iiunibcr of vessels. 1f the steamer goes there, as it is said she will, there will be a good landing and a ccniiiiodious warehouse alongside. We know tliiit a number of persons are opposed to the bout going so far down, but if the Queen‘s Wharf is to undergo the repairs for which tcndcrs were recently issued, there will be no choice in the matter. The sooner the Government sell the Queen‘s wharf, the better for themselves, us then it would he kept 111 good repair. and cost the country less than it does at present.

No “inseam—So many worthless medi- cines are achrtiscd for the cure of various diseases. and when tried ‘fuuiid wanting,’ that the invalid loses all faith in specifics.
