The Organ at Sea.
Tur Patriot is in a bad muddle over the sugar duties. Because a larger revenue is re alized from sugar in 1889 than in 1878, the organ jumps to the conclusion that the sugar duties must be higher in the former year, and to clinch the matter he shows that the value of the sugar imported in 1878 was greater than in 1889.
The ridiculous blunder which our con- temporary makes is in ignoring the quan- tities imported in these years. In 1878 we imported only 108,952,092 Ibs., while in The average rate of duty was in 1878 about 2) cts. per ib, and in 1539 only a little over 1} cts. per Ib. !! The great difference in the valve of our importations is due to the fact that now we mainly import raw sugar from the West Indies and other countries of production, while in 1878 we imported an immense quantity of refined sugar from Great Britain and the United States. The duty is on an average one cent a pound less now~ than,under the Cartwright tariff, which is a direct advant- The indirect advant-

age to the consumer. ages are in the increased trade with the countries of production and in the em- ployment of our own people in the refining and distribution of sugar.
Cartwright’s blunders on the sugar ques- tion were great enough to drive any govern- ment out of power. In these years the American Government gave a bounty in the shape of a drawback on the export of refined sugar. This closed the Canadian refineries and crippled our West India trade. When appealed to, Cartwright ad- mitted that he was a mere “‘fly on the wheel” and could do nothing. The people put men in power who could do something and a lower rate of duty per lb., a cheaper article and a big inglustry are the results. ek AE. ew Notes and Comments.
—At a special meetizg of the City Council, held this forenoon, the following resolution was moved by Councillor Byrne seconded by Councillor Hughes :—
Resolved, That the Mayor be impowered to pay out of the funds of the Corporation to the managers of tho Provincial Exhibition Association, a sum sufficient to cover any deficit in prize moneys that may occur at the approaching Provincial Exhibition, said sum not to exceedfive hundred dollars.
After considerable discussion the resolu- tion was withdrawn on motion of Coun- cillor Eden, seconded by Councillor Douse. The absentees were Councillors Large, Taylor, McCarron and Davison.
Address to Rev. Dr. Doyle.
Yesterpay morning Rev. Father Cullen, of the archdiocese of Boston, sang High Mass at St. Paul’s Cathedral, Summerside, and delivered a beautiful discourse on the virtue of charity and upon the too common vice of detraction and calumny. The ser- mon, which was attentively listened to by a large congregation which included many non-Catholics, made a profound impression. After mass and the sermon, Father Doyle, the retiring pastor of the church, entered the Sanctuary when Judge Kelly advanced to the altar rail, and on behalf of the con- geregation read the following
ADDRESS :— To the Reverend Patrick Doyle, D. D. and P.
P., Summerside :—
Dear Srr,—Less than two years since your parishoners, with others, shared the privilege of assisting at the celebration of the silver jubilee of your ordination, and pom ope you on the occurrence of that important an happy event. Then our feelings were those of joy and gratitude. Now a sense of sorrow animates our hearts as “we realize the fact that the intimate and official relations which have happily existed between us for the last sixteen years will have terminated§in the course of a few days.
To your untiring zeal and enthusiastic labors in the interests of religion, education and parochial improvement we are indebted for our present prosperous condition asa separate congregation. During the process of their early organization, few missions in this diocese have experienced difficulties and obstacles as great as those which Summerside has had to encounter, and none perhaps, can now point to a more successful assertion of its claim to a prominent place amongst the Catholic settlements of the Province. One man there was—and he, literally, “‘to the manor born,” who, above all other human agencies in this satisfactory result, brought order, beauty and religion out of chaos and indifference. To lose the services—spiritual and corporal—of such a man after a long and faithful pastorate, is, indeed, a bereavement, alleviated only by%the confident belief that the severence about to take place has been wisely authorized by the venerable and beloved Bishop of Charlottetown, and for the greater advantage of both priest and people.
For the many annoyances to which you have been subjected at our hands, and for repeated omissions of our more sacred duties, we crave your forgiveness, and would beg to assure you that we will implore Divine favors on your life and future ministry, and may that life and ministry be abundantly prolonged and as abundantly blessed.
With sentiments of reverence and repect we bid you farewell, and wishing you all possible happiness and success in the important mis- sion to which you have been assigned,
We remain, Reverend and dear sir, Your devoted friends,

After the reading of the address Dr. Doyle ascended the pulpit and spoke his farewell words to his beloved parishioners,
many of whom were visibly affected by the
rev. gentleman's remarks,

The Burchall Murder Case.
Woopvstrock, Ont., Sept. 21. Detective Bluett, who has been unceas- ing in his efforts to complete Burchall’s de- fence, has secured two men who will be used as witnesses, but he declines to divulge the nature of the evidence. It is thought, however, that he will endeavor to prove by them and others that Benwell was alive after February 17th. It is stated on what seems good authority, that Meville H. Pickthall, whose name has been connected with the Benwell murder case at one time as a suspect, and later as an important wit- ness, has disappeared, and the crown officers cannot find hiin. Woopstock, Ont., Sept, 21.
At assizes here Friday the Grand Jury returned a true bill against Reginald Burchall for the wilful murder of Fred. C. Benwell. The prisoner will be arraigned Monday morning.

A Lunatic Captured.
On Saturday afternoon last, as the Rev. F. E. J. Lloydand Mrs. Lloyd were taking a quiet walk on the Lower St. Peter’s Road, they noticed a woman running in the direc- tion of the city, the hair of whose un- covered head was streaming 1n the wind. Recognizing that she was none other than an escaped lunatic, Mr. Lloyd ran off in gursuit of her, and after a very exciting chase succeeded in capturing her near the entrance to the Exhibition grounds. The poor woman struggled violently, and re- fused to retrace her steps. By this time Mr. Robt. McMillan, of this city, drove up, and at the request of Mr. Lloyd he drove to Falconwood and apprised Mr. McPhail, who sent a keeper to take her back. Mr. Lloyd was able, but with much difficulty, to bring his captive about a mile along the road in the direction of the Asylum. When Mr. McMillan arrived at Falconwood he found that the Superinten- dent, having just discovered the fact of the escape of one of the lunatics, was about to telephone the intelligence to the City Mar- shal, and much credit is due to Mr. Lloyd for his timely aid and succersful capture.
A Dwe.iine House Brryep.—One day last week the house of James Duncan, (a farmer lately out from Scotland,) who resides on the France Road near Dundas, caught fire and was burned to ashes. Mr. and Mrs. Duncan were working in the harvest field when the fire began It is supposed that children playing with matches started the flames. ‘There was no insurance on either the building or its contents. Among the latter were about two hundred dollars in cash that Mr. Duncan had managed to save out of his hard earnings. Much sympathy-is felt for him and his family by the neighbours.
