The Cumberland Election.

Tue election of Mr. Dickey by a majority of seven hundred and sixty-two is another great triumph for the Government led by Sir John Macdonald. Extraordinary means were taken to secure Mr. Dickey’s defeat. Knowing that a straight party man would not stand the ghost of a chance of election in Cumberland, knowing that Commertial Union and all their other fads are practically ‘‘dead ay Julius Cwsar,” the Opposition leaders tried to defeat the Government candidate by uniting their little strength with the greater strength of the Prohibitiowists. They refrained from placing a candidate in the field, called upon their followers to vote for Casey, and hoped that all the supporters of the Government who favor prohibition would do so too. In this way the Government candidate would, be de- feated; the would then claim a great victory, and prohibition would be quietly shelved. It was a nice little dishonest game ; but it was not successful.

We congratulate Cumberland, the coun- try and the Government upon the result.

Senator Hoar's Views.

Senator Hoar has set forth his views on the Fishery Question and the position of Canada. He pleads for the vigorohs pro- tection of the United States fishermen, on the ground that fishermen are ‘the only portion of a nation that maintains unim- paired its fighting quality during a long peace.” ** We pay,” said Mr. Hoar, *‘ $60,- 000 a year for West Point and Annapolis. Canada exported from the produce of her fisheries in 1887 a value of $6,843,388 ; of this we took nearly a million and a half. Every dollar of that was a payment to oar great rival, to our only possible enemy, to- wards the support of a naval school to which Annapolis or Greenwich is quite unimportant. The desire of Canada and Great Britain to contract within the least possible limits the fishing ground to which America shall have access, and to possess themselves wii hout obstruction of the call- ing which brings to this great American market its supply of fish for food and fish oils, has a vastly larger purpose than a mere struggle for a profitable industry, im- portant as that may be. : ' We have every motive of kindred, of friend- ship and of commerce, interest to live in a unity with the Mother Country and with the young power which is rising on our northern boundary, whose frontier for more than fifty degrees of longitude marches side by side with our own. We look with no contempt or dislike upon Canada. We are glad to see the spirit of her young Mationality stirring in her veins. We be- hold with admiration the growth of her magnificent railroad system and the courage and enterprise with which her statesmen are adding these new links to the chain with which England, like a mighty snake, is winding her coils about the globe. Sir Charles Tupper and Sir John Macdonald may well give lessons to both sides of this Chamber. She is not afraid to create or to control the great railroads that are essential to her commercial prosperity. She does not send away her famous engineers, when they place their genius at her command, humbled and baffled from her Legislative Chamber to die in sorrow and disappoint- ment. She is not afraid to build a ship, railway, or even to create a navy; but when she asks us to abandon our fishermen to her tender mercies, to build up a naval school for her by giving her fishermen our market, she asks what it is neither fitting for us to yield nor for her to receive.”

On one point, at least, the worthy Senator is mistaken. Canada not ask the United States to ‘abandon their fisher- men.’’ She asks only that her fisheries shali not be abandoned to the depredations of the fishermen of a foreign nation which refuses tu give reciprocal advantages in its markets. Upon her right to defend her own Canada insists, and will continue to insist ; but she is quite willing to enter into a frien lly and mutually advantageous arrangement uuder which the fishermen of

the United States may enjoy special privi- leges in her waters and keep alive their martial spirit and ability. We should be sorry to deprive the United States of a means of cultivating the military prowess of her people. But the States ought to be willing to give Canada a fair equivalent for that great privilege.

— Of the recently appointed Lieutenant Governor of Nova Scotia, the Ottawa Citizen says :—

‘* Mr. MeLelan was a practical statesman as the condition of the marine and fisheries and the post oftice departments testify to-day. In the former he made desirable improvements in the life saving service, introduced the gas buoy system, and added to their usefulness the meteorological bureau. In the post office de- partment he minimised the expenditure, in- troduced the parcel post system, and consoli- dated the departmental finances, in addition to extending the entire postal system. Al- though but a short time controlling the de- partment of finance, he earned the gratitude of the commercial world in bringing into operation the polariscopic test in determining the saccharine strength of sugar. Previous to this the color test was the system in vogue, and it led toa great deal of dissatisfaction and opened thedoor to fraud. In the cabinet, Mr. MeLelan had wany warm Among the warmes§Sir John Macdonaid and Hon. Mr. Thompson: The latter gentleman does not hesitate to pay a tribute to his ad- ministrative ability and unimpeachable in- tegrity, that any man retiring from the politi- eal arena should well feel proud of.

Camp Brighton Militia Inspection.

Tue above inspection was announced to take place at three o’cloek yesterday after- noon, but owing to the inclemency of the weather the Battalion had to disperse sev- eral times before reaching the field. How- ever, at half-past three the battalion, head- ed by the Artillery band, marched in good order to Victoria Park, where from two to three hundred spectators, among whom I noticed His Honor the Lieut. Governor and party, and other prominent citizens, were anxiously awaiting their approach. <A few minutes later Deputy Adjutant General Worsley, accompanied by Lieut. -Col. Irving, rode into the Park. The Adjutant gave the word of command for the battalion to form into line for the general salute, which was admirably executed by the officers, non-cornmissioned officers and men of the battalion. The battalion was then put through the manual exercise and again tormed into companies for the march past. I have witnessed several military inspec- tions in Europe, but never before was I more struck with any of the manceuvres than I was with the march past so admir- abiy performed yesterday. In my opinion it woulc have done credit to regular soldiers. After the march past, the Adjutant gave the word to pass on the double, which was performed very creditably. Other different manceuvres were also gone through with in a manner which reflected credit upon all who took part.

The order was then given to Nos. 1 and 2 compsnies to extend in skirmishing order, with Nos. 3 and 4 in the rear as a support, and Nos. 5, 6,7 and 8 forming the main body. An hour was spent in advancing and retiring from an imaginary enemy; then the suppert got the word, to reinforce the skirmishing party and prepare for a grand charge with fixed bayonets. I am sure the spectators were not disappointed with this movement. With a genuiiie British cheer the men dashed at the supposed enemy, then retreated to their respective companies, and marched back for the inspection of arms. After this inspection had been con- cluded the Battalion was formed _ inte squares, and D. A. G. Worsley briefly ad- dressed the men. He said :—

**Col. Irving, Offieers and Men of the Prince Edward Island Militia:—I am much pleased to meet you again incamp. I am happy also to be able to congratulate you upon your smart appearance to-day at inspec- tion, as well as upon your behavior in camp. Ihave heard no complaints against you; in short, you have behaved like good citizens. I am glad, indeed, to be able to congratulate the Artillery upon the excellent manner in which they have performed their heavy gun drill; but I regret te notice that they are, however, a little behind in infantry drill. No. 8 Co., 82nd Battalion, commanded by Captain Sherriff, is in advance of any Cem- pany on the field in the matter of dress; the men look smart and clean, and in every way reflect the greatest credit upon their officers and the Battalion. In saying good-bye to you, I trust that you will behave yourselves like men. I hope to meet you all at camp next year.”

After the address, the Battalion, headed by the Band, marched back to the camp, where the men were thanked by their re- spetive officers for their good behaviour while in camp. The men then dispersed and all made for their tents in quest of supper. I wended my way to the Y. M. C. A. tent, where I sat down and penned the following :—

OUR P. E. ISLAND MILITIA.

Up, lads, it is honest endeavour

That leads to all noble success, For work that is well done can never Go long unrewarded, I guess,

In fieid, or ‘a camp, or in Council, True work has a weight of its own;

Who reaps by the miserly ounce, will Be he by the ounce who has sown.

For harvest time is the reward, boys, The fruit of the labors of spring ; For whether with plough or with sword, boys, ‘Tis our work that our wages must bring.

Then up, lads, and crown your endeavor, With the holiday crown of success, And laurels so well won shall ever Bett their stout wearers, I guess.

The German Parliament has been opened by the Emperor William II. The cere- mony is described as one of extraordinary splendor and interést. Nor was the Speech from the Throne unworthy of so great an occasion. ‘Though it bore evident marks of Prince Bismarck’s handiwork that but goes to show that the young Emperor is wise in trusting the man who has done so rauch to elevate Germany to her present position in the world. The speech has been well re- ceived throughout Europe. Curiously enough, in speaking of the foreign States the Emperor seemed only to consider | Russia and Austria. In regard to domestic | policy His Majesty promises to give the | working classes ‘‘ that, further protection | which, in accordance with the principles of | Christian morality, is needed by the weak | and distressed, in the struggle for exist- ence,” and further, goes on to hope that | ** it may be possible, in that way, to arrive at the equalization of unkealthy social con- trasts.” The speech throughout professed a desire for peace; there was no allusion to France, but a sentence showed that Wil- liam I}. relied on the army to assure perce, o1 if peace was broken, to recover it with honor. ‘The speech promises much, but it is so skillfully worded that very little is involved.

Last week I gave a specimen of an epi- taph which I thought worth retailing. This week I give one of a very unusual kind. It was written by Lord Sherbrooke in 1874, on the burial place of Lady Dorothy Nevill’s dogs :

Soft lie the turf on those who find their rest Here on our common mother’s ample breast. Unstained by meanness, avarice, and pride, They never flattered, and they never lied ;

‘lo gluttonous excess their slumbers broke,

They no'er intrigued a rival to displace, They ran, but never betted on a@ race ; Content with harmless sports and moderate

food, Boundless in love, and faith and gratitude. Happy the man, it there be any sucb, Of whom his epitaph can say as much.

A London newspaper, reputed for its ‘*smart ” writing, thus ex: -resses itself re- garding Mr. Stanley, the African explorer, —and I venture the opinion that many of your readers will be inclined to agree with it :—

‘Tf it turns out to be true that Mr. Stanley has only been ‘severely wounded’ with an arrow, but not killed, we shall be prepared to offer our hearty congratulations to him, to his friends, and to his backers who run him. But if we were to permit ourselves to look at the matter from the wider point of view of general humanity, we don’t know that we should be altogether justified in suppressing a feeling of regret that that ‘arrow’ was not better aim- ed. Mr. Stanley is an enthusiastic philan- thropist, whose enthusiastic philanthropy compels him to be perpetually walking about on other peopie’s. land and shooting them. His course is described as one of ‘continuous tighting’ in a country where, if the natives don’t want him (and they apparently object to him very strongly), he has no business to be at all. He is, in fact, a sort of Godless Gordon, with a share in the business. Now, for our part, we thik the nigger-shootin business a very disreputable line of trade, an if that arrow-head is successfully extracted, and if Mr. Stanley returns to this country with a string of sealps at his waist, and if the Lion of Flanders (of course we mean P. de Keyser, and we know he is only a poodle, but he is cut to look like a lion) asks us to meet him at the Mansion House, we shall have a previous engagement.”

Tt am asked why King George is called King of the Hellenes, and not King of Greece ; as King Leopold is called King of Belgium and not King of the ** Belges ?” The reason I believe to be is that when the present King was elected to the Throne of Greece, he was acclaimed by the nation as King, not of Greece, but of the ** Greeks.” This title was justified by the undiminished alleg‘ance which Greeks in all parts of the world own in their heart of hearts to the sovereign of the free portion of theirfather- land. The Great Powers admitted this title ; but out of consideration for the sus- ceptibiities of the sublime Porte, they ac- cepted for ofticial purposes the style of King of the Hellenes, as distinguished from the Greeks still under the Turkish

rule.

I do not imagine that many of my young friends who have not yet Jeft school will care to trouble themselves about lessons in history, but I recommend those who are wise enough to keep a scrap book for news- paper cuttings to give a place to the follow- ing lyrical. but I admit not very musical, bit of listery, and if they will but learn it by heart they will find it of much use to them :

Henry the Fourth died with fits to excess,

Henry the Fifth in the noon of success;

Henry the Sixth died of grief in the Tower,

‘Twas lust brought Edward the Fourth his last hour;

Edward the Fifth in the Tower, too, was killed,

By awe the Third—siain at Bosworth heid;

Henry the Seventh owes death to the gout,

Edward the Sixth died a natural death,

Mary in quietness exhaled her last breath;

Queen Bess closed in anguish an_ill-spent reign,

land (though it seems little known in America) that should it happen to rain on St. Swithin’s Day it will ram for forty days afterwards. The legend is that St. Swithin, Bishop of Winchester, who died 862, desired to be buried in the church-yarg of the minster, that the ‘‘sweet rain ‘0’ heaven might fall upon his grave.” At canonization, the monks thought to honor the saint by removing his body into the choir, and fixed the 15th of July for the ceremony ; but it rained day after day for forty days, so that the monks saw the saints were averse to their project, and wisely abandoned it. In ‘* Poor Robin’s Almanac,” for 1697, occur these lines :—

In this month is St. Swithin’s day,

On which, if th.t it rain, they say,

For forty days after it will,

Or more or less, some rain distill.

This Swithin was a saint, I trow,

And Winchester’s bishop also ;

Who, in his time, did many a feat,

As ancient legends afl repeat. ,

A woman having broken her eggs,

By stumbling at another’s legs,

For which she made a woeful cry,

St. Swithin chanced for to come by,

Who made them all so sound or more

Than ever that they were before.

Lut whether this were so or no

Tis more than you or I do know.

Better it is to rise betime

And to make hay while sun doth shine,

Than to believe in tales and lies

Which idle monks and friars devise.

A letter from a correspondent in the Penman’s Art Journal, copied into Thurs- day’s EXAMINER says: ‘‘A friend asks me to multiply $5 by $5. I do so and announce the result as $25. All right. Now multiply 500 cents by 500 cents, giving the answer in cents. I do so, and am surprised to see the figures climb up to 250,000, which is $2,500. As $5 ani 500 cents are equi- valent, the result is puzzling. There is clearly something wrong. What is it ?” There is really nothing wrong, for it is im- possible to multioly a sum of money by another sum. Number and value are

distinct, abstract ideas, and can- not, without committing a logical ab- surdity, be confused. To multiply

is to repeat a certain number of times, and it is obviously impossible to bring value into the question. Value is arbitrary; num- ber is fixed. I use pounds, shillings and pence, because while the principle is the same, the absurdity is more apparent. One pound is eqaivalent to 20 shillings, or 240 pence or 96 farthings. In value there is no difference vhatever; but what an enormous difference between multiplying by 1, 20, 240, or 960! The so-called problem of multiplying £19, 19s. 11?d, by the same may be treated fractionallv, considering the shillings and pence as fractions, and the multiplicator would read 19 959-960ths. This, though a long process, is perfectly possible, but the idea of value is entirely lost. A little reflection will show what a palpable absurdity this is.

Western Agricultural ‘Convention at Margate, Prince County.

YESTERDAY the annual meeting of the above Convention was held in the hall at Margate, and was attended by a number of representative farmers from different sec- tions of Queen’s and Prince County.

Wm. Laird, Esq., New Glasgow, Presi- dent, occupied the chair.

The Secretary, H. A. Stewart, Esq., Malpeque, submitted the financial state- ment of the past year, and read a very able report on the working and aims of the con- vention.

The President having delivered an ex- cellent address, the election of ofticers for the ensuing year was proceeded with, when the following were elected :— President—Arthur Simpson, Esq., Caven- dish.

Vice-President—Herbert R. Baker.

Secretary-Treasurer—H. A. Stewart, Mal- peque.

Executive Committee—Alex. Laird, M. L. C.; R. H. McDonald, St. Eleanor’s; William Brown, Margate; Stewart Burns, Freetown.

A paper on the *‘ Possibilities of Farm- ing ” was then read by Mr. Geo. F. Owen, Cardigan, that elieited a lively discussion, in which Wm. Simpson, Malpeque, | onald Ross, Freetown, Alex. Laird, Stewart Burns, Dugald Wright, Searitown, Wm. Brown, Margate; John Marks, Walter Simpson, Cavendish, and others-took part.

A vote of thanks was given Mr. Owen, who was elected an honorary member of the Convention, for the interesting paper he had read, to which a short reply was made acknowledging the great honor conferred.

The next meeting will be held at Free- town Hall, in January next, of which due notice will be given. Alex: Laird, R. H. McDonald and Stewart Burns, Esqs., have promised to read papers at that meeting. A committee was appointed to arrange fer a public meeting to which the general pub- lic will be invited. +.

His Arm Torn Out, TERRIBLE ACCIDENT IN WHITBY—PAIN BRAVELY BORNE.

A few minutes before the whistle of the Mowat Manufacturing Company’s works at Whitby blew the noon hour on the 10th inst., Arthur Thompson in handling a machine belt caught his right hand in a rapidly revolving pulley, and before he well knew what had happened the arm was stripped of its flesh.and sinews from the shoulder down, the bene broken off below the elbow and the lost member twisted tight about the whirring shaft.

Three were very shortly on hand, and the arm bone sawn off just below the shoulder. The young fellow—he cannot be more than 18 or 19—bore the pain unflinchingly. The doctors were astonished at his courage.
