LETTERS TO THE EDITOR,

o———-

Srr,—The Putriot states that the ‘‘Cus- toms, the Postal, the Railway, the Public Works, and every other Department” of the Civil Service is so packed with friends of the Government that the ‘Reformers’ have become so accustomed to it that they are beginning to regard itas a matter of course. Every intelligent elector in the town and country knows very well, that when vacancies occur in any of the Depart- ments na‘ned, they are or should be, filled by supporters of the Government for the time being, and the Liberal Conservative Government of the Dominion, having been in power for the past decade, and are like- ly to continue so for many years to come. “‘Oftitials” who are not blinded by preju- dice know full well that it is to their inter- est not to offer any violent opposition such as the Patriot suggests, to any Government in whose employ they receive their daily bread.

When the P. E, Island Railway was first opened under Grit rule, it was literally packed by the most subservient tools of that party, many of whom proved to be no- toriously imcompetent to . discharge the duties assigned to them. Not only was the

tailway Department thus packed but the Customs, the Postal, the Savings Bank, the Assayers, and other Departments were also tilled by hangers on of the Grit Govern- ment,—and until this day many of those barnacles cling to the ship of State protect- ed by the Civil Service Act, which, the Patriot alleges, has been used in the inter- est of ‘*Tories” only.

Will the Patriot deny that there are Grit officials in the Railway, the Customs, the Postal, the Savings Bank, the Assayer's and other departments in this city to-day who are the most servile tools of the Grit party, and especially so at election times, when they are known to act the part of violent partizans, and yet they have not , been dismissed and their places handed | over to Tories, as is falsely stated by the | Patrict. ‘* With what measure ye mete it shall be measured to you again,” is a doc- trine that the Patriot hurls at defiance. : Nothing will gratify him but the total ex- ‘pulsion trom office of every man who will not bow atthe shrine of his ‘organized hypocrisy.” In fact, it is boldly stated by Grit canvassers that one of the planks in their platform is a pledge from their candi- dates to the effect that every official, with- , out exception, in the employ of the Local ,Government are to be dismissed if the , Grits carry the day next Wednesday. This, ‘like mun other cowardly threats, will be | indignantly resented by every fair-minded

elector by tne free exercise of his franchise. Yours, SCRUTATOR.

Orangemen in Ireland. } The Montreal Gazette obtains from the | Belfast Northern Whig some interesting par- ‘ticulars as to the sentiments, purpose and strength of the Ulster Loyalists who are , ready to oppose the establishment of Home | Rule even by force, if necessary. At the meeting of the Grand Orange Lodge, early ‘in the month, at Omagh, county Tyrone, returns were handedin from the counties, | specifying the number of volunteers pre- pared to take the field in defence of their irights and liberties. The figures from | Antrim, Down, Armagh, Monaghan, Fer- managh and Tyrone, showed that more than the number expected had been enroll- ed and that when the list was complete the ‘volunteers would have a total strength of over 100,000 men. Tyrone, it isanticipated, , will contribute 15,000 men, one rural dis- | trict, Killyman, promising 1,500. Antrim ‘and Down will be able to send 20,000; } Armagh, 15,000; Monaghan, 8,000; Fer- 'managh, 2,000; Londonderry, 10,000, and ,other parts of Ireland, 1,500. The cor- respondent of the Whig said that he had been furnished with this statement, but it is worthy of note that the proceedings at the Omagh meeting, at which the returns | were said to have been rendered, were i strictly private; and though he claimed to have received the foregoing enumeration \irom a trustworthy source, it is possible jthat his informant was mistaken. The Whig, indeef, does not answer for his ;accuracy. Irishmen, north and south, are, it is true, less often lacking in courage than in judgment. They have always been ready to fight on more or less provocation, but that men who profess to be so loyal should be openly organizing resistance to authority in the way described is hard to believe. Ifthe report is true, itis to be regretted that the crisis was not met in a different spirit. Moderation would be more likely to meet with sympathy in the actual state of affairs than wild defiance. And if the North proposes to break the peace, what may be looked for in the South, where, we may be sure, agitators will not be wanting to inflame the popular passions !

‘effect, that there is no chance for railway ‘construction in China on a scale which | could be made profitable to European en- |terprise until the Emperor attains his ‘majority, which will not be until the closo of 1887. The paper says that the report of | the delegates have been read to a meeting |of German capitalists and manufacturers ‘interested in the investigations of the déle- gates, who further state that the viceroy ‘assured them that China would build rail- | ways when she was able to manufactutethe ‘materials needed in their construction ' within her own dominious. no encieanagitincettil ttl aspen

Mexican Gold Bugs.

There seems to be every prospect of a glut in the market for Mexican gold bugs. The late Miss Folsom brought over one of the insects from Europe. which has ren- dered them fashionable as articles of per- sonal adornment; but they are very scarce even in Mexico, and consequently are quite expensive. Fortunately, however, an ingenious naturalist has devised a method of producing these valuable beetles by wholesale, and gold-bugs will soon be pur- chasable at prices which will bring them within easy reach of every one. The afore- said naturalist recently inserted an adver- tisement in several rural newspapers offer- ing 5 cents piece tor 10,000,000 large-sized and well-formed June bugs. He did uot get that many, although large consignments were sent to him from: various parts of the country; but the number he received, some 50,000 in all, was sufficient to begin work upon. So fer as mere shape is concerned, the plain and unattractive June bug bears a singular resemblance to his dandy cousin of Mexieo, and the process of transforming the one into the other is exceedingly simple. There are two styles—the animate and the inanimate. The former is made by dipping the wings and back of the June bug in thin shellac and sprinkling them with gold dust, while the latter is vemepayrmney be yar ing the specimen upon a stee in, anc SSasainie ib into the varnish, which kills it at once. A quantity of gold dust is then dashed over it, andlo' the beetle is clad from head to foot with the bright metal, even to its antene. With two such coats he is practically embalmed, and, with care, . will last a lifetime. The American gold- bug is ap erss ged superior to the effete Mexican variety. Pe léoks precisely like a superb piece of jewelry work, and al- though his weight, or want of it,.gives him away, this difficulty may be overeéme by loading him with a buckshot to bring liim up to the standard. Just now he selis at $5 each in the shops.

a An Ottawa Fireman Pensioned.

Fireman Manners, of Ottawa, served in the Union Army during the American rebellion, and hearing that under an Act passed by the American Corgress, offering discharges to all United States soldiers who had deserted after the close of the war,the, was entitled to a bounty and pension, he made a final application in February last through a Washington attorney for his regular discharge from the Umited States Army. In reply he was informed that in order to get it, he would have to make a personal surrender to the commander of Pittsburg Barracks,JNew York. On the 3rd of the month he accordingly left Ottawa for the purpose of doing se, and next day formally surrendered to the colonel there in charge. It being necessary for the col- onel to get an order from the Secretary of the War Department, and that dignitary being then absent from the Capital, no recourse was left to the colone! but to incarcerate Manners, which he accordingly did, and the Ottawa fireman had to lang- uish in durance vile in the Pittsburg Guard House until the 10th inst., an imprison- ment for twelve days, when an honourable discharge was granted. He returned on Saturday afternoon in possession of his dis- charge, which entitles him to $350 bounty, due at the time of deserting.

Fickle Lord Gumboil.

The fickleness of little Lord Cairns, whom you know as Lord Garmoyle, and was cele- brated in Londonas Lord Guraboil, constitutes him the leading male flirt of the period. The breaking off his engagement with pretty Miss Grant, of New York, is now said to be entirely his doing. The story runs that he coolly laid his financial position before Miss Grant's mother and stated the exact sum——about $40,000; it is said—necessary to make him easy. This produced a_ pro- longed stare, and the little man bowed him- self out. The marriage had been arranged for early inthe Autumn, and Miss Grant and her mother are still staying in London mueh chagrii ed, but not sorry Oh the whole to be rid of a bad lot. Rumor says that without being formally engaged this sprig of an Earl has played truant to the affections of half a dozen other ladies at home and abroad. No breach of promise action is expected on this occasion,

——— _-

A few years ago a society of eminent Frenchmen discussed the Guestion :— ‘‘What language would a child naturally speak if never taught?” Twenty different results were predicted. To test the matter two infants were procured and isolated with a deaf and dumb woman, who lived alone in the Alps, surrounded with her sheep and chickens. After six years the children and the nurse were brought before the savants, who were un tip-toe of expec- tation as to the result. When, lo! nota word could either of the children utter, but most perfectly could they imitate the crow- ing of the cock, the cackling of a hen, and the bleating of sheep.

Journalism is taking a spurt in Italy. In Naples there is a regular newspaper read- ing craze, and even the beggars gather round some fortunate possessor of a daily newspaper as he reads aloud in the street. But the people soon get tired of any one paper and clamor for a new one. Thecon- sequence is that almost every day some paper dies and another takes it placo. One of the most certain ways of killing a news- paper in Italy, by the way, is to fill it with news. What they want is good local lies and blood-curdling sensations.

The marriage certificates of Grover Cleveland and Frances Folsom shows that the former is 49 years old and the latter 21. As we all know “figures do not lie,” and, as we have learned from the alchemists, the figure 7 is particularly lucky. Now, if one reflects that \o bride’s age is 3 times 7 and and that the groom’s age is 7 times YT, and that the difference between them is 4 times

7, he will see how lucky they sught to be.
