Tur Rev. T. DeW. Talmage, we believe, has consented to lecture in Charlottetown onthe 10th and 11th prox. The subject of his first lecture will be “The Right Side of Things.” No doubt a large number of his many admirers will avail themselves of the opportunity of hearing the great and
popular lecturer. — ~~~ pe A considerable lot of productions, prin-
Cipally on epiritualiem, free-loveism, &c., that were taken from the lady alluded to in yesterday's issue, were burned by the City Marshall on Market Square yesterday morning. By the way, we cannot help re- minding the Argus, which called this in- dividual a “lady,” that it is necessary to draw the line somewhere.

Che Servian diplomatic agent here has declared that Servia has no knowledge of any intention on the part of Russia to send an army through Servia, denies that Servia has resolved to participate in the war, and states that no troops have been sent to the frontier.
Seven thousand Turkish troops disem- barked at Sulina and are marching on the Tultscha, which is weakly garrisoned.

Sirn,—Will you allow me to protest against the action of yourself and your contemporary the Argus re imoral litera- ture. In both cases the course pursued was, | am sure, well meant; but was it judicious? Ifuman nature being what it is, & warning not to buy from a certain person and not to tike a certain newspaper (the name of which is given) will in too manycases be read without the ‘‘ not,” and the warning will become a gratuitous ad. vertisement. The action of the public will, it: is hoped, abate the nuisance, but surely if any time such illicit sales become known to any decent person, his duty is privately to inform the Police Magistrate, but not to ¢'ve public warning.

THE REGISTRY OFFICE JOB.
To the Editor of the Daily Examiner,
Sizk,—It seems that Norman J, Campbell once had a friend, probably many yerrs ago, and that friend gave to him a piece of advice which he has laid to heart, and so important did he deem that advice that he has taken the public into his confidence ann told it to us in the columns of the Ex- AMINER. It is as follows: ‘* Never wrestle with a chimney sweep.”
I think it most excellent advice—so ex- cellent and so good that, by adopting it, | have placed a most insuperable barrier to my entering into a con.roversy with him i very much regret this, but his advice is so good | cannot retrain trom following it.
The Argus has dropped Campbell. In an obscurely worded paragraph it aban. dons him to his fate. The Patriot has never uttered a word in his defence; wili the Summerside Journal have pity upon the poor outcast? If not, he is a wanderer for sympathy indeed,
I still reiterate “as to whom I am is, | think, a matter of indiflerence.”’ If my charges are untrue, they can be refuted . but chat they never have been, because they are unanswerable. Amongst the turgid diction of his sentences it dimly appears as though he thought a lawyer had written my letters. He entirely mistakes, No lawyer wrote them, nor was any lawyer consulted as ta a single statement, but | ami very frequently in the Registry Uffice and I cannot but see how its duties are mismanaged, So that, although Camp- bell iuas ‘*no doubt” upon what he is pleased to cail his ‘‘ mind,” he is entirely inaccurate; and as to the source from which {| derived my information, he is still further astray. I have communicated with no *‘dismissed clerk,’’ I have held no communication with any one who, to use Campbell’s language, has been “kicked out of the Regist.y office.” My informa- tion comes from a higher source. That in- formation is correct and true to the very letter. Hence the Argus’ abandonment of a nian and his doings which are found to be perfectly incefensible; moreover, moved thereto by a hint from a quarter which it could not disregard.

guage, ‘‘he took itinto his cocoanut ’’~— which I suppose is Registry office slangfor head—to endeavor to answer my charges, he might have done something to allay the
strong feelings which exist. among the public against the mismanagement of that office;
but he has not done this, but in his ins nocence and simplicity has given us his friend’s excellent advice, which eftectually prevents any one adopting it from entering into disputation with him.
Thiz, however, is poor work. What the public are most concerned with are the doings in the Registry Office, and promising ior the future to ignore Campbell, his “ co~ coanut,’’ and his * mind,” I shall lay some further facts before your readers which cannot but be of interest to the public.

To the Civic Electors of Ghar- lot’ stown.
AVING atteru.. a meeting in the Athe- ueum On Friday evening last, for the pur- pose of nominating candidates forthe Licensing Board, it was agreed that the three persons re- ceiving the highest aumber of ballots should be the choice. Messrs. Dawson, Cundall and Blake, received the nomination. The next highest on tie list was the Hon. H. J. Callbeck. Since® thea Mr. Blake has declined to run. In Monday moroing’s Lxaminer, Mr. Joseph Knight offers his sefvices to the public without getting the couseat of the meeting that nominated the can- didates, although he received but very few bal- lots on Friday night. Since Mr. Knight has thought proper not to be bound by the decision of the meeting, it opens the way for others, and [, therefore; offer myself as a candidate for the suftrages of the people. If elected, I shall en- deavor to discharge my duty fearlessly aud im- partially. In our City we bave taverns, or night colleges, where the young are taught to driok, swear and gamble ; and, if elected, I shall do my utmost to have them closed, The morals of the community must be sacredly guarded and the majesty of the law faithfully vindicated.
