A PRACTICAL HINT.
- ~ oe
Tue fact that the fourth steamer to cress the ocean direct from Charlottetown is now loadimg, containg a practical hiat for our farmers, viz. that eo long as they produce plenty of articles ofthe right kind to send direct tothe British market they need not be under soy apprehension that means
will not, in future, be found to take them across. Of couree, the Lake Winni-
peg and the Gaspesia have bad the inducements of a Government subsidy. But subsidy or no eubsidy, once it is dis- covered that cargoes can be obtaised here at regular intervale, steamers will be found to carry them, Our farmers are £0 much nearer the market than those of Ontario, or indeed, of any other part of Canadsin a position to compete vith them, that they may now without ear, direct their attention particularly the production of such things as are constantly demanded by the great town populations oftne Mother Country, This will necessitate more heed to the breeding of cattle, sheep and lambs, to the manu- facture of butter and cheese, to the growth of apples and other fruits,—a)l of which can be prodaced here in perfection, if ouly the means to thatend be adopted by our farmers.
to
The chief, we may say the only, drawback, is the comparative smallness o¢ our territory. To overcome this it is im- portant that our farmers aod merchants co-operate even more closely than those of the other parts of thecountry. Our agri- and fruit associations have a
great work before them in directing and
cultural
combining the energies of the farmers to-~ wards the production of animals and artic- les such as will sell most readily in the British markets. This is the practical hint which we truat will be acted upon at the meetings of these associations to be held in the course of the coming winter months. The matter is one in which our are interest-d, To our merchants it is a matter of second- ary importance. Indeed they have better opportunities to “buy cheap and sell dear *’ without direct intercourse than with it. The more irregular and difficult our means of communication, the more chances +for our speculators. But our farmers who are interested in obtaining the
farmers most of all
best prices avaitable are interested in regu~ lar and direct !connections with the markets and in the provision of those things which will supply the regular de- mami ofthe markets; and the more can send to Great Britain the better will be the demand and the higher the the prices in the local and Provincial The matter is therefore one for
we
markets.

A SUGGESTION.
Sir,— Your local yesterday about the Imperial stamps explains a mystery. I: was hard to imagine where the American artist got bis design from, but now it is , evident that he ate a heavy supper of canned lobster, and in the nightmare that followed be evclved the desigu from the labels of the pyramids of lobster cans piled upon hischest. Could not some of our local exporters persuade the postmaster general to put their namee on these stamps as an advertisement of our Island produce.

On the Altar of Diabetes, Saved by Dodd's Kidney Pills, Cnly.
Hardly a family in the counrry is iree from Diabetes. Great thirst, ‘ailing sight, numbness in the thighs, bleeding gums, swollen ankles, ema ciation, nervousness, pale or turbid urine, loss of sexual power, decaying teeth, pains in the loins or small of the back, are all positive signs that Diabetes is in the system.

LETIER FROM LONDON.
The Weather and Streets- -the Royal Stables---Madame Tassaud's.
Mr. Auben E, Arsenault, who is at)
resent in London with Mr H R Mac-
enzie, in the coarse of a recent letter Bays :—
‘Though we have not had many foge we have bad ot of rain; indeed there have been very few days during the past two weeks that it did not rain. It is not safe to go Out,in the morning without an umbrella theugh the sun be shining (wh'ch by the way is seldom) for coming on in the afternoon it is sure to begin to rain. Though the streets are very clean in fine weather they are filthy when wet. The mud, or rather mixture of asphalt, wood aod rain, flies on yonr clothes and is very difficult to brush off. We have not hed it cold as yet, and in the country the grass is quite green,
“There is nodoubt that London is an interesting old city. Yoncome upon his- toric buildings and places at everv corner, aod the country io general bears the etamp of age and antiquity about it. The buildinga are either quaintly built with queer gables aud their chimneys —one at each end of the honuse— or else the stone is ~—- bleach~ ed aad crumbling, showing that for ages it has withstood the inclemency of the weather. I noticed, as I was hurled along at & pretty fastrate in an express train, the excellence of the coi ntry roads, and [ remarked to McKenzie that England must be a paradise for wheelmen.
“London is very irregularly built and one requires to have the lay of the city pretty well before he can pilot himself around without the aid of a map or the evr courteous policeman. To the crook-
eduess and narrowness of the stre-ts may be attributed the frequent blockades, for if the streeta were straighter and wider the carriages could circulate with much more freedom. Asit is I wonder there are not more accidents; but everything seems to g0 On smoothly in this old town, sidewalks may be thronged and yet there is no pushing or elbowing or jostling; you can walk ata much faster rate than you can along Sunnyside ona Saturday even- ing. Along the Strand or Regent atreet is a very fine place for making a study of human nature. You see individuals of every description. I notice that the people here have a very good eye for the artistic
you always see a crowd before a window in which acy work ot art is exhibited. They are mostly middle or poor class people. Of course some look because they eee others looking.
‘‘Last Saturday we went to view the Royal stables at Buckingham Palace. Our ticket we Obtained through Mr. Colmer, of tke Canedias High Commissiorer* office here, who has been very kind as well as usefv] to us, Having presented ourcredentials at the stable gates a guide was assigned to us
i
acd we -began our tour of: in- spection. I may ssy that the stud, which numbered about 112 horses, contains
some very fice animals. I noticed one verv animal which the guide tld me stood 17 hands one inchhigh. Needless to say the stables and horses are kept in the cleanest condition. Each stall is deeply bedded with fresh straw, which is kept in }lace by abordér of woven straw which runs along the back of the stalJa from one end of the stabletotheother. We were na- turally auxious to see tne cream horses, and this piece de resistance was kept for the last. There are seven of them, but one of them is gevting very old, being 19 vears Ofage. A peculiarity of these horses ig that when they get old they get hollow- backed. They are cream, in color with the exception of the maneand tail which are light auburn. These horses are only used on state occasions and last drove the Queen's carriage on jubilee day. For that occassion a Leautiful set of harness was made for them, It covers them from head totailand isof red leather ~ichly ornamented with gold-plated buckles and mountings. They cost £2000 (about $10,000.) Among the other harness we were shown were the set builc for the Jubiice of 1887, aleo of red leather with gold plated mountings, and a set built for Geo III, 135 years ago. of blue leather with mountings. Of the many carriages the one which took
up our attention mort was the stage coach built in 1761 for Geo a. oe SR et in = Jength
exclusive of the tongue, and s‘ands about ten feet in height. The hind wheels are over six feet in diameter.and at each cor ier of the coach is a small Neptnne. The work of painting and decorating wasdone by a celebrated Italian artist. Itis still ina good state of preservation and was last used by the Queen in 1861.
“This evening we spent at Mme Tassaud’s waxworks. It iswell worth a visit, and a few hours can be spent there usefully as wellas enjoyably. Among the latest acquisitions are figures of Dreyfus, the Sirdar(Kitchener)Marcband and De Rovj- ment, There is aleoa splendid and natural representation of the Gordon Highlands at Darghai.”
