Let our old- fashioned Nor’westers stiffen up, as soon they must (Veunor or no Vennor), and dry goods will sympathise in the general im- provement. Long is the time since we had such a bright business prospect before us as at present.—Montreal Gazette.

Prince County Judgship.

Iv is reported that Tuomas Ke tty, Esquire, has been appointed County Court Jndge for Prince County. The report is, we believe, correct. Mr. Kelly’s name was freely mentioned in connection with this office at the time of its creation ; and since the death of the late lamented Judge Pope it was generally supposed that Mr. Kelly would be raised to the vacant position. No gentleman of the profession of the law had stronger claims upon the consideration of the Liberal-Conservative Party in this Island than Mr. Kelly ; and the recognition of those claims by Sir John McDonald and his Cabinet is, from a party stand-point, very satisfactory. Mr. Kelly will, we believe, be a good Judge. He is, if we mistake him not, emphatically a ‘fair-minded man”; and his dignified bearing, his moderation and urbanity, tc- gether with his sound judgment, will ap- pear to advantage in the high and respon- sible office to which he has been called. We heartily congratulate His Honor Judge Kelly.

A New Steamship Line between P. BE. Island and New Brunswick.

Tne Buctouche correspondent of the St. John Telegraph writes: ‘Mr. G. Gir- euard, M. P., and other influential citizens of Kent, it is said, aro interesting them- selves in the project of having a steamer route opened up between P. E. Island and Richibucto, on the completion of the Kent Northern Railway. From West Point, P. E. I., to Richibucto Cape, the distance is said to be only 18 miles, and the passage is open and free from ice, or nearly so, all

winter. It is only when eastern winds prevail in the spring that itis liable to be blocked np. It is contended that a steamer such asthe ‘‘ Northern Light” might tra- verse this route all winter, and convey mails and passengers from the Island to the Intercolonial Railway.”

Mr. Blake, the erratic politician,has con- sented to re-enter public life, and Mr. Burk, the member for West Durham,makes the sacrifice necessary to provide a seat in Parliament. West Durham is the banner Liberal county of Ontario, and has more than once afforded a refuge for

rty leaders whose censtituents have eft them out in the cold; but we believe there will be a general feeling of satisfaction at the return of Mr. Blake to Parliament, for, in spite of his ignominious failure as a politician, and his want of the qualities which would entitle him to rank as a statesman, he possesses legal abilities which make him a useful man in com- mittee, and oratorical talents which give interest to any debate in which he engages. Butfor the inconsis- tencies of his short career he might have become a formidable man in the Liberal

rty ; now, while we may expect to hear im expound his missionary reforms in the House, we hope for some practical result from his critical abilities and knowledge of legal affairs. — Montreal Gazette. — — —— ———

Lasr evening, at 8 o'clock, a house owned by Bir.JE. Robertson, of Newtown, situated on Grafton street, west, was discovered on fire. The alarm was immediately given and the engines hurried to the scene, The fire erigin- ated in a back kitchen and, as the uae es been for a long time unoccupied, incendiarism is supposed to be the cause. ‘The interior walls were burning brightly when the engines

eommencedl work; and the flames had erept iuto the roof threatening to take possession of tie building.

After extinguishing all visible tire in the in- terior of the kitchen several holes were cut in the roof. Water was freely poured through these, and in a short time the last spark dis- appeared. The building was badly damaged both by fre and water. We have not heard whether the owner has it insured or not. Logs is estimated at $300.

Tue Pictou Town Council, by resolution at a late meeting, imposed a license of $12.00 a year, or 3! a month on parties living beyond the limits of the town who bring meat in for sile and ecll it from door to door, Also, $6 a year or $1 a month for those that sel] milk. The Standard calls this ‘‘a new departure,”

fhe liberals are not inclined to boast

‘ch over their mass meetings of late. It

w turns out that at Yamachiche nearly half the names put as movers or seconders of the resolutions were used without con- sent of the owners. At Kamouraska, a conservative suddenly appeared and ac- cepted the defiance of Mr. Joly, and ad- dressed the meeting for two hours and 80 disgusted the audience with their liberal ministers that the meeting was closed a few minutes afterwards, and lastly at Belle- chasse, a disgraceful scene was enacted. Mr. Joly addressed the meeting at some length, and was followed by Mr. Landry, M. P. for Moentmagny, a couservative.. Mr. Mercier then addressed the meeting, conducting himself in a most extrava gant style, challenging any one present te fight him or meet him in any manner whatever after the meeting. Mr. Fradet, the diver, the late local member for Belle- chasse, met Mr. Mercier on the boat, ac- cepted the challenge, and a fight ensued, which was only put a stop to by the per- sonal interference of Mr. Joly. The scene was a most digraceful one and caused con- siderable stir among the passengers, many of whom were simply enjoying a Sunday afternoon excursion on the river. The resolutions the liberals had prepared be- forehand were torn up by the audience, who refused to pass them.

Decay of an English City.

A correspondent of the London ‘Daily News” gives a sad picture of the town of Middlesborough. A few years ago this was one of the most flourishing towns in the North of England. In twenty years its population had multiplied fron 8,000 to more than 40,000, and there seemed no limit to its growth. But the depression of the iron trade and the substitution of steel for iron has thrown Middlesborough in great distress. Eighty-six of its one hundred and sixty-five blast furnaces, the most expensively built in the world, are idle, and there is no pros pect that they can again be opened. Its rail mills are useless till they receive new machinery, which there is no capita! to purchase. The mansions of its iron mas ters, palaces, most of them, are closed. The billiard-room of one of these palaces itself cost £50,000—the walls being decor- ated by an Associate of the Royal Academy. This was but one of the many exomples of the magnificent extravagance which has been one of the growths of mushroom pros- perity. Nearly all the leading men in the town are now poor. Rents have fallen nore than 50 per cent. Properties will net realise the mortgages upon them. Hun- dreds of houses are empty ; dozens of shops are closed ; and upwards of 5,000 men, women and children are starving. The ordinary machinery of poor relief has ut- terly broken down. ne Up

At the fire last evening a young man named George Gardiner had an arm dislocated at the elbow by accidentally falling into a hole in the rear of the burning building.
