The Meeting To-night.

We hope to see a fall attendance of citizens at the adjourned meeting to be held in the Market Hall this evening. The need of procuring a sufficient supply of water for fire purposes, and of im-| proving the equipment of the fire depart-| ment is generally admi'ted. We there-| fore trust the question will be discussed | intelligently, without party feeling, and | some practical decision arrived at with- ovt loss of time. Insurance rates were advanced by the new tariff that came in | force in Charlottetown about two monthis | ago; and we understand that unless ar-| rangemeots are made at once to procure | an adequate supply of water, rates will be further advanced, and perhaps some of the agencies of the English compaaies withdrawn. It therefore behooves the citizens to act promptly and_ effectually in this important matter. An increase of 25 percent. on existing rates of in- surance would more than cover the in- terest on the probable expenditure neces- sary to procure plenty of water and put the fire department in first-class order. Let us therofore act promptly before it is too late.

The Garden of Canada.

Tourists and travellers long since proclaimed P. E. Island the “Garden of Canada,” a uame to which the fertility of its soiland the immense productiveness of its bays and rivers truly entitles it. The fact that in agricultural products P. E. Island far exceeds all the other Provinces of the Dominion has been fally demonstrated at the different Domivion Exhibitions at which the products of ber soil has been placed in competition with that of her sister Provinces.

At Montreal, in the year 1880; at Halifax, in 1881; and at St. John, iv the years 1880 and 1883, this Province competed successfully, giving evidence of the superiority of her exhibits in every department in which her products were entered for competition.

The press of the adjoining Provinces were not, on any of the occasions re- ferred to, slow to acknowledge that the different contributions from P. E. Island added very materia'ly to the success of those exhibitions. When the Commissioners representing the agricul-

tural interests of this Province at the St. John Dominion Exhibition 1883 were advocating our rights in this

regard, the St. John Sun with others favored the claims of the Island in the following words -—

‘‘The Sun most heartily endorses the claim made by the committee of management of the P. E. Island Provincial Exhibition, that the Island Province having contributed to the success of three Dominion Exhibitions is now entitled to a grant from the Dominion Treasury for the purpose of holding one on her own soil, inviting of course the competition of the adjoining and other Provinces.”

Many of the leading men of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia at the Dom- inion Exhibition in St. John, expressed themselves favorable to the claims ot the Island Province. Professor Lawson, of Halifax, Secretary of the Board of Agri- culture of Nova Scotia, than whom no man in the Maritime Provinces is better authority on agricultural matters, gave his opinion freely in favor of holding the Dominion Exhibition of 1884 at Charlottetown, P. E. Island.

We do hope that the representatives from our Province at Ottawa, assisted, as doubtless they will be, by the repre- sentatives of the other Maritime Provinces, will use their united influence with the Dominion Government to obtain our rights in this important questioa.

A m4n named R. Regan was arrested in Winnipeg on the 28th ult., for having pub- lished a cireu'ar calling for 5,000 reeruits to do service on the frontier at Emerson, and along the international boundary, and signing the name of the Adjutant General of the district. The prisoner is a corres- pondent of the New York Jrish World, and is supposed to be connected with a Fenian organization, which is ssid to be in exis- tence in Minnesota and Dakuta, but the reason for his action in this case is not understood.

Imperiac Fire Insurance Comrany.—The result of the business fer the year 1883 of the Imperial Fire Office is very satisfactory. After paying the usuai dividend and providing for other ontgoings, it has been able to add the very substantial sum of £50,607 sterling, ($246,287) to its reserve, which now amounts to £818,422 sterling ($3,980,933.) The result raust be highly gratifying tothe management and shareholders of the Company, for we fear a great many fire offices will show a balance on the wrong side for this is one of the most ad- verve years in the history of fire underwriting from Insurance Society. The Imperial does a large business in P.E. Island,and 1s represent- ed by, Fenton T. Newbery.

Two large three-story buildings on O’Con- nor’s wharf, Halifax, occupied by William MePatridge asa marine store, and adjoining | oue of a similar height occupied as a carpenter me by Michael E. Keefe, builder, were en. tirely consumed by fire on the 28th ult. A two-story building occupied by Thomas Offin, ee and block maker, was slightly dameged »y fire and considerably so by water. Mce- Fatridge had $860 ~=insurance) on. | each of the buildings destroyed and | $2,000 ou his stock in the Western office, half of which amounts is reinsared by the latter | with the Connecticut Fire Insurance Company. | There were galao $5,000 insurance in the Pheevix — $!,560 ow the building, and $3,500 on the stock of sheathing metal,stoves, &c. The building adjoining east, which was owned by Mr Keefe, was insured in the Halifax ottice for | $1,400. ‘The plant and stock were uninsured, rnd the loss on them amounts to about $1,500. The piace used by Offin was owned by Thonaus H_ Peters. who did not have it insured. Offin had $1,000 on his machinery and stock in

(ucen office, but estimates his loss abt | double that amount. ~ i a

PARLIAMENTARY CORRESPONDENCE, 3

AMENDMENTS TO THE KESOLUTIONS. Orrawa, Feb. 25. |

Several amendments to the Pacific Rail- | way Resolutions were proposed in com- | mittee. The most important of these, and | the most interesting to your readers, was | that moved by Mr. Weldon, who moved | that the resolutions be referred back to the committee, in order that it might be pro- vided that, as a eondition of the proposed advance, that, so long as any part of such advances or interest thereon remains Un- paid, none of the resources of the Company

| shall be expended towards acquiring inter-

est in railway or railway securities in the

United States, with a view to an Atlantic

Ocean terminus in the United States Terri-

tory. During the debate on this amend-

ment, the following letter was read by Mr.

Daly, of Halifax:

“Tue Caxapian Paciric RAWWway OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT, MonTrEAL, ]lth Feb., 1584.

Deer Sir.—Referrmg to your letter of the Sth inst., and to the accompanying memoran- dum and copy of resolution relating to the question of an Atlantic terminus of the Cana- dian Pacitic Railway although I have not had an opportunity of bringing the matter formaliy before my colleagues ta the direction of the Canadian Pacitic Railway Company, | may safely say that ever since the formation of the covnpany we have felt that it was only a question of time when the Pacific Railway must reach every peeves! en in the Mari- time Provinces, and especially their most im- portant seaports, and that this could only be accomplished either by lines owned er con- trolled by the company, or by triendly con- nections with other lines having identical interests.

“The Company, as you are aware, has already invested a very large sum of money for the purpose of seeuring an independent connection with the lines south of the St. Lawrence. But apart from this, individuals connected with the company, and deeply in terested with its success, have made large investments in lines leading to the Maritime Provinces, the success of which greatly de- pends on their connection with the Canadian Pacific Railway, and yerhaps this is the best assurance | can give yeu of our readiness to co-operate with you in _ perfecting the connection between the Canadian Pacific Rail- way and the Maritime Provinces.

“If it should be decided that the best way of accomplishing the object in view would be b; completing the direct line from Montreal to Moncton via Sherbrooke, Megantic, Mata- wamkeg, Fredericton and Moncton, I think, with the assistance of the Maritime Provinces, and with such subsidies for the portion of the line within Canadian territory as may be fairly expected from the Dominion Government, the means might be found to complete the con- nection, which would be the shortest one poss‘ble,

Ce.,

Yours truly, Gero, STSPHEY, President.” CONDITIONS OF THE LOAN.

The Bill, based on the Railway Resolu- tions, which Sir Charles submitted on Saturday morning provides that a deed of agreement shall be executed by the Com- pany and on behalf of the Government. This agreement will bind the Company to complete the central and eastern sections of the railway not later than May, 1886, and from month to month to make such progress with the work on both sections as will satisfy the Government that the agree- ment in this respect will be fulfilled. Should the Government at any time not be satisfied with the progress being made with the work, and so notify the Company, and should the Company not put on such additional force as may be sufficient to ensure its completion at that time, no fur- ther advances on account of the loan shall be made, and the total amount up to that time advanced on account of the loan shall, as additional security for the payment thereof, be a charge and form a lien upon any cash subsidy then earned and not paid, or apy cash subsidy thereafter earned by the Company. The other provisions of the deed are to be as set forth inthe resolu- tions.

THE PROHIBITION QUESTION.

A meeting of members and senators sup- porting the temperance cause, was held to-day, to discuss the form of a resolution to submit to the House, for the purpose of testing the question of total prohibition. After some discussion the following reso’a- tion was agreed to:

Whereas, The object of good Government is to promote the general weifare of the people by a careful encouragement and protective of whatever makes for the public good, and by an equally careful discouragement and sup- pression of whatever tends to the public disadvantage.

Whereas, ‘Che traffic in alcholic liquors as beverages is productive of serious injury to moral, #o‘ial, and jndustrial welfare of the people of Canada; and

Whereas, Despite all preceding legislation, the evils of intemperance remain so vast in magnitude, so wide in extent, and se des- tructive in effect as to constitute a social peril and a National menace, —

Therefore, Resolved, That this House is of opinion that the right and most effectual legislative remedy for these evils, is to be found inthe enactment and enforcement of a law prohibiting the importation, manufacture, and sale of intoxicating liquors for beverage purposes.

Professor Foster wili introduce the reso- lution at an early date. Bills were sub- mitted, to-day, for the purpose of amend- ing the Liquor License Act.

THE PRESS DiINW#R.

The annual Press dinner came of on Saturday evening. Some of the post-pran- dial remarka were excellent. Of course, the serious topic was that most potent, undefinable, and ubiquitous influence of which the diners are the motors and representatives. Some of the speakers said the Press should lead and elevate public opigios; and should not pander to low tastes and party prejudices. Others thought jt would pot pay to lead public opinion; for unless he he well armed with

the golden shield whieh few possess, public opinion will very likely kick the editor

wi presumes to lead it into the ditch, The pinion of others was that the Preas should be both a_ reflector

of public opwigs and a clear and steady light by which pubjic opinion may be guided towards a higher standard. How- ever this may be, i dges not xead the

signs of the times aright, who thinks shat |

the public opinion of to-day is reflected by

means of villification and hbel.

REPRESENTATION CABINET,

_ Mr. Shakespeare asked the Leader of the

Government, to-day, whether it is his in-

PROVINCIAL IN THE

tention to have British Columbia represent-— ed in the Cabinet at an early date. The Premier's reply was: ‘‘The Cabinet is full

just now, and [I have no intention to turn)

out any of my colleagues.”

The Budget Speech. | coe |

Sir Leonard Tilley delivered the Budget | Speech on the 29th ult. He admitted, in| opening, that there is a temporary depres- | sion in some branches of trade; but argued that in finances and in the financial condi- tion of the country Canada never stood in a better condition than it does to-day. | With respect to trade, he regretted to say that. owing to the depression in lumber and | to over-trading and over-importing, there was a depression at the present time, which, he trusted, weuld not be of long duration, but would be speedily overcame, when Canada would again be in the position it was in a year ago — prospering in every par- ticular. Sir Leonard then entered into a minute explanation of the receipts and ex- penditure, and opposition charges of extra- vagance. He dealt at length with the various phases of the trade and commerce of the country, and showed how its pro- gress had fully justified the national policy inaugurated bythe Government, He an- nounced the tariff changes as follows:

A Palace on Wheels.

A sleeping car, the invention of Col. Maine, of St. Louis, was brought to Mon- treala few days ago for the inspection of the Grand Trunk officials. It is, the Gazette says, a palace on wheels. It is sixty-four feet long; the trucks are of aspecia pattern, each having six forty-two inch paper wheels. The interior of the car is of the most ele- gant description. At either end is a vesti- bule entered from the platform, from which open respectively ladies’ and gentle- men’s dressing rooms and _ closets, the lavatories being suppled with every toilet appliance. C. nnecting the vesti- bules and shut of from them by doors is a commodieus corridor running along the side of the car. Opening off this hallway by doors are several compartments or boudvire. Some of there rooms are arranged for two and some for four persons. These com- partments have high arched ceilings, large plate-glass windows and one or two luxuri- ous sofas. These sofas are thwart the car, and under them and behind their inclined backs are carried the mattresses and bed- ding. At night the backs of the sofas, hinged at their tops to the cross partitions which completely separate the rooms ac swung out and up to ~@ horizontal pos.tion,- where, automatically fastening themselves, they form the upper beds, the sofa seats becoming the lower beds. The beds are larger than those of the palace car, and by being arranged across the car, the sleeper avoids the rolling motion ex- perienced in beds placed longitudinally, while the head is removed from the noise incident to close contact with the car walls. Off the ladies’ vestibule is a two-place bou- doir always reserved for ladies travelling alone. Connecting with the gentlemen’s vestibule are a smoking-room and a buffet, from the latter of which passengers can be supplied with a good substantial bi eakfast, light lungh and variong drinkables. In each compartment are electric bell gommunica- tions to call the porters. The car is hand- somely finished in amaranth wood with decorations of «embossed leather panelled to different colors, The ventilation of the car is perfect, air being brought in from the top and passing through a tube, being heated before entering the car, while in summer it can be covlel in like manner. The car, which is a pattern of comfort and convenience, is estimated te accommodate twenty-two persons. ‘‘La Traviota,” with another of the Mann boudoir cars, ‘‘ La Somnambula,”’ are at present under charter with the Mapleson Opera Company, and ‘La Traviota,” which was only brought to Montreal for the inspection of the Grand Tronk officialy, left Jast evening for St. Levis. Duijne the day the car wag visited by a large number of persons apd wag greatly admired,

THE EARL OF GRAFTON ATTEMPTS TO ¥YUT AWAY HIS WIFE—A FORMER EUSBAND APPEARS,

Mayfair, a new society magezine prvb- lishes the following paragraph:—‘*Another celebrated case will be that of the gallant Earl of Euston, who will be the next Duke of Grafton. The dazl geeks to get rid of his wife. His appearance in’ the witness box will be highly dramatic, for the lady has seen him, and declares that she knows nothiog about him. The approaching trial

will ijyal the Tichborne case and be the sensation of the season.”

The facts of the matter are these: Thir- teen years ago Henry Jritgroy, eidest san of Lord Augustus Fitzroy, fell in love with a dubious woman known as ‘‘Kate Cook.” She was handsome and stylish in person,

and her matured charms were quite suffi- cient to captivate the youth of twenty-three.

Unknown to his father, who was equerry

to the Queen, he married her. Most chronicles of the peerage ignored the marri- age. Qthers Cescribed the bride as the

daughter of John Walsh and widow of ‘Mr,

Smwrh.” eee .

Jn 1882 the bridegroom’s sogial position

ehanged. Lord Augustus Fitzroy succeeded

his brother as geventh Duke of Grafton.

Henry Fitgroy became Bayl of Bustop.

The widow of “Mr, Smith” became the

Counntess of Euston and the future Duchess

of Grafton. But trouble had already come

between her and her husband. No fault | being proved avainst the Countess since her

marriage the Earl in vain sought for an ex-

cuse for divorcee. The mysterious ‘Mr.

Smith” has now appeared and the excuse

is found.

If the case fails Kate Cook will be

Duchess of Grafton, and the title created

for a mistress of a King will be borne by a

woman of the town,

In 1853 he married Mary Louisa Anne, danghter of the third Lord A: hburton, and in 1863 sncceeded his father as sixth duke. The first Duke of Grafton acted at the coronation of James IL. as Lord High Con- stable of England, and commanded that monarch’s forces in the action of Philip's Norton Lane. Afterward he espons:d the cause of the Prince of Orange and received a fatal wound while storming the city of Cork in 1680.
