whom this want of punctuality in pay-|

ment is due. We have recent'!y seen it stated that the taxes of Charlottetown are paid by about eleven hundred of the electors. Some people believe,therefore, it would be much better to equalize the school tax, levying it on all the house holders of the city. ‘The experiment is at least worth attempting. This is one part of the work before the Council.

Then comes the question of water- works for Charlottetown. Doubtless the city would e:e this have been supplied with pure water were it not for the ill- advised opposition of the present ma- jority in the City Council. A bill was last seseion introduced in the House of A sembly, praying for the incorporatioa of a compavy who would bring water into the city: without entailing taxation upon the citizeus, leaving them tree to purchase from the company or not. The bill was defeated by the *‘cld ladies” in our toy House of Lords, at the insti- gation of the majority of the City Coun- cil aud their supporters, who raised a hue-and-cry about sewersge. One result of that course is an enormously increased rate of insurance, aud a threat by the insurance companies of a still further advance on ivsurance rates. We hope to see the next Council] composed of men who are vot averse to cleanliness and comiort, even at the remote risk of the necessary sewerage.

Then cur sidewaiks have degenerated to such an extent that they are posiiively dangerous. A large outlay is required to put them in good repair again. The piecing aud patching they have received durivg the regime of the last two years will vot meet the demands of the future. The streets should be repaired in a thorough manner. It would be ad- visable, and prove a saving as willas a biessing, to levy yearly an amount necessary to meet the cost of paviog two or three streets so substantially that they would need no repairs for generations to come. Once ivaugurate!, the work of paving would extend ir a few years throughout the most public thoroughfares of the city, and the miserable plank walks, with their pitfalls and mantraps, would po longer disfigere our streets or endanger our limbs. The cost of paving the most public streets might be wholly or partially met by the issue of deben- tures, #6 that future geverations, who) would reap the benefit, would also bear their share of the cost. We have very slight hopes of seeing this suggestion carried out at ap early day, but we con- sider it worthy of discussion,and that it is the method that must seoser or later be resorted to

Again, the Fire Department is not in the complete state of organization and equipment, necessary to master such a fire as we had last February. From want of water and machivery, it has beep unabie to avail disasters iu the past, and it may be so in the future, unless practi- cal men ere chosen as councillors, who

i inthe Council of the Confederation, Smyth supported Smith O’Brien, Dillon, D'Arcy McGee, and others, in opposing the resolutions of John Mitchell! advo- cating open rebellion, but subsequent events embroiled the whole party in the armed rising, which ended in ‘48. When the insurrection was put down, the Government made strenuous efforts to capture Smyth ard _ the other leaders, but with much difficulty he escaped to America, where, for some years, he de- voted himself to journalism. undertook the perilous enterprise of rescuing the Irish State prisevers, who were undergoing sentence of penal servitude in Australia. Heset out tor the convict settlements,and after encoun- tering great dangers, he successfully rescued John Mitchell. On another oc- casion he assisted in the escape of bis frieuod Meagher. He was returning a thirdtime to take off Smith O'Brien, when the granting of au amuesty render- ed further action unnecessary. In the management of this undertaking, Smyth evinced a most resolute aud daring spirit.

In 1856 he returned to Ireland, and was one of the most active promoters of the erection of the national monument to O'Connell. He became a prominent member of the Home Rule Association, and his election for Westmeath in 187] was ove of the great triumphs of the ustioval party. Hesubsequently sat for Tipperary, which seat he retained until he resigned a few weeks ago. A man of great ability, he soou won a foremost place iu Parliament, and delivered some of the best speeches that have been heard in the House of Commons in this generation. He diferedfrom Parnell a few years ago, partly on matters of policy, and partly, it is said, owing to difficulties in the construction of the party and the position of members. Since that time he nas sat with other Irish members on the Liberal benches as an Independent Home Ruler, and has seldom spoken. Not accepting the leadership of Parnell, brought opon him the odiem of the young followers of the great Irish Jeader, and they waged unrelenting war agaiust him. Although an industrious lawyer, an allie crator, and ao author of several popular works, yet he remained a poor man; the best answer that can be made to those who question his political integrity. His whole life was given to agitation ip behalf of ireland. To advance her interests he braved dangers, suffering and exile, but in the end was fated to poverty and political death. He resigned his seat a few weeks ayo, aud was obliged to accept a petty office as secretary to the local fund board with a paltry salary of $1,500 a year. He did not live to euter upon the duties of his office. Per- secutions of his former allies, aspersions cast on his politica] character and straiten- ed circumstances broke hisheart, Aweek or two after accepting office he died.

But, as we stated above, personal-

‘ities are not confined to newspaper writers, in the heat of election con- tests. The more purely literary meu have a weakness for personal

remark which is very much akin to scandal. It is only a year or two since the literary world were threwn into tumult over the publication of Carlyle’s journal, in which he recorded confidingly his opinion of the eminent men whom he met; in most cases with a view to taking them down from their eminence. Car- lvle wrote us one soured; 4s one who felt the world of society to be out of joint; as one who believed that the liovs of letters did aot deserve the praise hey received. He had also by nature a keen pair of eyes for human defects, and in his jourval and letters he did not hesitate to write down all the meanness that he saw. People either justify Carlyle on his transparent honesty, or they abuse him for his unmanly jealousy. At apy rate, he did not seruple to write the most contemptuous things about his coutemporaries, whether as from a pedestal of lofty virtue, or from a snarl- ing and diSagreeable nature, being a matter of opinion.

Over and above the right of a biographer to publish material not meant for the outside werld, one is

forced to pass an opinion ou the character of the man who would exter in a private journal a minute account of the unpleas- ant things that might be said about those into whose company he is thrown. For after all, what a man does when alone, when the eye of the world is not en him, when he is unrestrained by those delicacies which company imposes, is the best index of bis real self. Ifa man is habitnally when writing in his private journal, then either his published exhcrtetions to no- bility are assumed, or else he is the victim of an ill-balanced nature, whose verdict on apy poiut is to be received with caution.

Quite recently Mr. Julian Hawthorne published a book entitled ‘Nathaniel Hawthorne and his Wife.” It is chiefly a

biography of his father, with copious clippings from his father’s journal.

Some ot the selectious printed sefer to well-known persons still living, iu terms which would wmuch better have never seen light. Perhaps those sketches by Hawthorne of men whose hospitality he enjoyed were only in- teuded as aids to his memory, exclusively for his own private use; why they have been printed, it is difficult to conceive. There are many smart things which one might say in temper or in pleasantry which would be unjustifiable in manu- script, being uttered only for the moment,

their underlying meanness. The fact that an author who afterwards became great has written severely or ungenerous- ly of the promivent men of his acquaint- ance, does not stamp these remarks as of value ; they do vot gain with bis advance ; they may have owed their birth to a moment of petty ill-feeling of which later their author would be ashamed. At apy rate this jourpal-stabbiog is a meaver kind of personality—less houor- able because underhand and secure from reply—than the ruder outbursts of the vewspaper editors who are tempted in the hurry of writing to copsider men equally with movements fit topics for general remark.

Primeval Man. Mr. Cuas. Patmer’s paper, on ‘‘Prim- eval Man,” read last evening before the Literary and Scientific Society, was one of unusual interest. The paper showed much research on the question of the origin of man ; and Mr. Palmer preity conclusively siowed, by the admissions of scientists themselves, who previously had tried to prove the opposite, that the theory of evoe- lution “will not, does not, and cannot demonstrate that man has developed from a lower order of species ; that man did not exist during the earlier periods of the esrth’s history, and that he only appears during what is known as the medern period, probably six tq eight thousand years ago, when the earth was particularly fitted for his occupancy ; and that the Mosaic account of the origin of man, and his first appearance on earth has not been refuted, and that all scientific data and archeological discover- ie3 abG study ccrroborate or sustain the Biblical record.

Why the Law is not Enforced.

THE INSPECTOR'S KEPLY.

Srr,--Your correspondent ‘‘Protection” asks me the question, ‘‘Why is it that the Scott Act is not enforced, now that the Supreme Court of Canada has confirmed the legality of the provisions of the McCarthy Act, in so far as they relate to the machinery for the enforcement of the Scott Act.” In reply, I beg to state that every supporter of the law must know thatit would be extremely injudicieus on my part to make known the steps which I take to enforce the law, iu answer to a question of this kind, asked byan anonymous writer. Such a canse would tend to defeat rather than promote the due enforcement of the law. I may, however, say that if your correspondent, is actuated in making his enquiry by an honest desire to have the law enforced, I will be glad to answer bis questions, and to satisfy him that the re- sponsibility for the present state of things does not rest upon nme or the License Board, if he will see me cn the subject.

Yours, RH. Crawrorp, Inspector

. Wiil Mayor Hooper Extend “a Friendly Greeting.”

Sirn,—The civie contest on Wednesday next bids fair to be the most exciting that has taken place for a number of years, and Iam sorry to find that my old friend Mayor Hooper has so far forgotten the pledges and promises he made previous to his election in 1882, as to allow himself to be persuaded by a certain clique to nomin- ate again. The strongest argument he could use at that time against Mayor Dawson was that Mr. Dawson had occupied the chair for some two or three years, and that, having done so, he ought to retire and not seek re-election. Well. Sir, the citizens took Mayor Hooper at his word and elected him with the understanding that he would not follow Mr. Dawson’s example in that respect. After the elee- tion, Mr. Hooper published a card thank- ing the citizens for the confidence ‘hey had reposed in him, and concluded with the following words :—

**T shall at all times be most willing, as in duty bound, to submit to the voice of a majority of my fellow citizens, and, I need not say, treat them at least with common courtesy and decency, and be willing to extend a friendly greeting to whosoever may be returned by the citizens as my successor to the Mayoralty of Charlottetown, should my life be spared another year.”

Now, Sir, the above is dated Jan 28, 1882, and signed ‘‘ D. R. M. Hooper,” and I would ask His Worship whether he thinks he is treating his ‘* fel/ow citizens” with “‘common courtesy and decency” in trying to force himself on the citizens for the fowth year, after pledging himself to ‘‘extend a friendly greeting to whosoever may be returned by the citizens as my suc- cessor to the Mayoralty of Charlottetown, should my life be spared another year.”

Comment on the above is, I think, un necessary, and I will conclude by asking my fellow citizens to unite in electing a Mayor and Council composed of men determined that our fair city of Charlettetown shall no longer be a bye-word and a reproach amongst the cities of this Dominion, but a credit to its people and an attractive place as a summer resort for the numerous pleasure-seekers of the American contin- ent.
