| To the Editor of the Leaminer. } Srr,—-Our wherever they go | . . 1’ ° ‘ e a

| abroad, take high positions in law, in medi-

boys,

icine, and other professions, and, if they |

lare capable of obtaining such a standing abroad, they are also capable of filling positions at home. If it was necessary In the early days of the railroad in this col- ony to fill some of the important offices from abroad, surely, after our experience of six or seven years, that necessity has passed away, and our young men are fitted for something more than to be hewers of wood and drawers of water to officials from the other Provinces, and have a right to expect that, as vacancies occur, they shall be promoted to higher positions.

Our representatives have got to take a stand in this matter, and make this a test ease. Let them teli Sir John Macdonald and Sir Charles Tupper that they will not submit to Nova Scotians being foisted on this Colony, and every good office filled by them. Letthem remind Sir John that in 1873 he found the Island members, though few in nuimber, had sume weight—and he may experience that fact again! The time may come, earlier than he anticipates, when the solid vote of the Island will be valued by him ; and let our representatives tell him that their support i? the future is contingent on justice being done now. If our members are powerless to obtain justice now, they will find justice meted out to them at the polls.

Yours, Xe., ELECTOR.

The St. John Sun says: ‘it will be noticed that, while manufacturing for home wants has revived throughout Canada anu more home-made goods are consumed than ever before,the imports have also increased largely, as compared with last year, show- ing that the purchasing power of the peo- ple has greatly increased. (The same re- mark is true of the United States.) That is to say, not enly has our trade among ourselves revived, but our commerce with the outside world has greatly extended, in the last twelve months.”

Acadian Iron Mines.

‘fuxse Iron Mines are situate at Lon- donderry, N. 8. Their blast furnace, roll- ing mills, machine shops, and foundry, are all first-class, and give evidence of enter- prise and confidence in the prosperity of the Company. Samples from bars in rstock from the Acadian Mines were ex- hibited at our Provincial Exhibition in October las:, and are new to be seen at the Secretary's roums, Queen street, repre- senting both puddled and merchantable iron. The puddled bar is in a rough state aud would have to be cut in short lengths and put through another heating process, and passed through the finishing rolls be- fore being merchantable or in a shipping condition. Loudonderry iron is now known as rating with Lowmoor, and in fact no one who uses it will afterward consent to re: place it by either Lowmoor or Sweedish. Ritchie Brothers’ test proved its strength of a tensile force of 60,000 pounds per square inch. It is in use now in nearly all the iron works in the Dominion and the demand is steadiiy increasing. All the Nova Scotia shipbuilders are using it for their vessels, and pronounce it far superior to any importod iron in use. The Domin- ion Government use it on their bridges and in fact wherever extra work is required you will find it. A large proportion of.car wheels in use on the Intercolonial Railway are made from this iron, and judging by the increasing demand-we should think no other iren will be used in Canada in an- other year or two.

Garfield, who if he ‘lives till next March will be installed as | President of the fifty millions of people | who live in the United States, was born in the State of Ohio, in the Jitile village of Orange, Cuyahoga County, near the city of | Clevelaud, on the 19th of November, 1831 tie will therefore be 49 years vld on the 17tl of this month, The General was brought up in the woods. He gained dis- tinction in the war of the rebellion, and has been in poiitics for a long time. For several years he has led tho Republican party in the Heuse of Representatives, and has taken a leading part in all the active movements of his party. He is speken of as personally generous and warm hearted and as a political leader keeps up mest cordial relations with his opponent.

Another terrific hurricane, accompanied by a blinding~ snowstorm, has passed over Denmark. The railways are blocked and a score of wrecks are reported.

A despatch to the ‘‘ News” from Athens states that the Porte is sending troops and ammunition to the Greek frontier. Unless the Turks retire to the new frontier war is certain.

The Premier of the Capetown govern- ment telegrspha that the position is criii- cal, the Pondos havirg rebelled. The magistrates at Isolo and Gathberg are in imminent danger.

A despatch from Berlin to the ‘* Stand- ard” says that 10,000 troops have concen- trated at Khabarovka, on the Russian shore of the Pacific, in view of a possible war with China.

A despatch from St. Petersburg says: ‘There is reason to beheve that General Greigh, Minister of finance, wili shortly re- sign and be succeeded by M. Abaza, member of the Committee of Ministers.”

Mr. Watkin Williams, member of Par- lirment for Carnarvonshire, succeeds Sir Robert Lush as one of the Justices of the Court of Queen’s Bench, on Sir Robert’s appointment asa Lord Justice of the Court ot Appeals.

A religious tract, called ‘‘ Put not Your Trust in Prinees,’” was thrown into the saloon of asimple old German. He read the title, and soliloquised : ‘* Vell, 1 don’d put some drust in princes. Dey must pay der cash in dis shop chust der same as a vite mans.”

The consumption of mule and hersefiesh is steadily increasing in France. The weight has risen from 171,300 pounds in 1866 to 1,982,620 pounds in 1879. In the principal cities of the provinces the con- sninption of horseflesh may be considered to have fairly taken root. The average price of horse meat is from twenty-five to thirtyfive eents per peund. Each horse furnishes about four hundred weight of meat, which is capable of being prepared in many ways, such as pot au feu, boiled, roast hashed, haricot, jugged, etc.

The correspondent of the Stendard at Teheran, Persia, telegraphimg before the relief of Urumiah, says :—‘* Fugntives from Urumiah informed the Rev. Mr. Easton, at Tabriz, that the Sheik Abdullah sent a communication to the American mission- aries in Urumiah requesting them to hoist the American flag above the mission build- ings in order that it may be recognized and respected when the city is attacked by the Kurds.” A despatch from Meshed says:— ‘“Tt is generally believed here that the rising of the Kurds will soon come to an end. It is a mere marauding inroad.”

An official report just published shows that Washington has a larger area of paved streets to iis population, and more smooth sireets, in asphalt, and the like, than any other city in the worid. The streets, squares, &c., are under the control of regu'ar army officer, and the work now being dene is of a high degree of excellence. Under the same energetic official, the largest sewer in the country is now being completed. The impetus given to public improvements in 1871, and which tempora- rily increased 1n 1875, because of the euor- mous cost of work as then done, is now felt again and promises to make of Washing? ton the best paved, best sewered, hand- somest aud healthiest city, anywhere to be found.
