committ »%} crime

he A } : 1 who 7 hould be punished, but if he were mereiy vided with comfortable lodgings he would he likely to return to them again. Of course the Jail was no place for lunatics Ile cons dered the resolution too sweeping tion. Mr. Laird was still of vpiuion that when the Government took minors by force | from the custody of their natural guarcians, | they had the duties of guardians to periorm. | He did not wish to be uncorteous to any

n, much less to the Government, for | tne to the rulers of the country ;

ct was but bis honor had failed to show that they | 1d been uncourteeus. His honor the Leader of the Government said he was ignorant of | the state of the Jail, bul ten days ago his |

ronor from Belfast (Mr. McGill) fearlessly | exposed the condition of the prisoners. | Were ten days not suflicient time to make en- juiries, or did he think his honor was stating | what was not true? Then there was a state- | ment in the public papers that Dr. Mackie- | son, in a report made in February. had re- presented the state of the Jail. Hon. Mr. Strong said that report was made by the authority of the Government, and it bad been published without their knowledge before the official report was sent in :. Mr. Laird said the report as publish~ } was addressed to Sir Robert Hodgson, and it was natural to suppose that the Gov- ernment were aware of its conten‘s. He

| thought when his honorable friend ["ur. Mc-

Gill] made the statement here that he was exaggerating, and on the 24th ult., he—Mr. La | laced a notice upon the order book that he would ask for a return of the number of

prisoners, &c., and till that statement was tid upon the table, he was not in a position o make further enquiries. He was not ware what the exact terms of the Peniten- ury were to be, but he was sure that boys

ofa tender age would not be sent to jail with hardened crimnals. He believed crimnals vere not sufficiently punished by sending them to our jails, which were merely schools of infamy. Every person able to work shouid be employed. Desperate diseases require desperate remedies, and be fail >d to see that

fa tend

t | the resolution was too Strong.

Hon. Mr. McGill said that after the reports

Waa Se eee ween | of the jailor, Mr. Harvie, Dr. Mackieson and

Satrurpay, April Ist, (Continued.)

tion. Mr. Balderston, on seconding the motion, said he regretted the necessity for passing anything like a censure upon the Government, but they were clearly respon- sible for the disgraceful state of the Jail When it was brought to their notice a few days ago, by a member of this House, he thought his feelings must have led him to exaggerate ; but it was shown by the report pefore them that half the truth had not been told. The Government might complain that they had not means, but the whole country were willing to make sacrifices in the cause of humanity. Surely some arrangement could have been made, even a temporary one, instead of having those of tender years and the hardened in crime confined in the same cell. He understood that Prince County Jail was unoccupied, and why could not

| i

some of the inmates of Charlottetown Jail be |

sent there ?

Hon. Mr. Strong considered that their hon- ors were acting hastily in introducing such a resolution. If his honor the Leader of the Opposition had placed a notice upon the order book, instead of asking a question yes- terday without notice, it would have given him (Mr. Strong) an opportunity of explain- ing what the Government intended to do. By introducing this resolution, under the circumstances, they were treating the Government very uncourteously. Per- haps his honor the Leader of the Opposition had not reflected upon how far this resolution would extend, and who were included in this cemsure. Three years had elapsed since confederation, and no peniten- tiary had been provided for this Province by the Dominion Government, according to the terms of union. On account of this breach of faith many persons were in the Jail who would otherwise have been in the peniten- tiary. Further, he believed that when his honor the Leader of the Opposition was in the Government, the condition of the Jail was no better than now, and therefore by in- troducing this resolution he was reflecting upon himself and upon the Government of which he was a member The Government fully admitted the necessity for reform, but it should be remembered that our means were limited, and that $89,000 were voted last year for a Lunatic Asylum, and the probability was that it would cost from $150,- 000 to $200,000. It was designed for some of the Jail. When thesa facts were considered it would be seen that the Government were not regardless of the state of the Jail. His honor had read a lesson of morality to the Government, but he (Mr. 8.} was not pre- pared to acknowledge himself as the parent of those prisoners. It was the duty of the authorities to punish for crime, but the Government were as humane, and had as keen an eye to,the morality of the country as any of their honors. There were also means in course of compietion which would tend to remove the grievance. When the Lunatic Asylum would be built, the old building could be used asa reformatary. If the Government had gone to great expenses in this matter the members of this House would be among the first to find fault with them for going beyond theirincome. There was no necessity for such a sweeping re-

solution, and the Dominion Government were included in it as well as the Local

Government.

Hon. Mr. McGill said that his honor the Leader of the Government, in denying that he'was in the place of the parent w ith regard to those young persons in the Jail, was mere- ly following the footsteps of Cain. If the Do- minion Government had neglected their duty, he (Mr. McGill) would pass just as strong a censure upon them as upon the Local Gov- ernment, but he believed that only three or four persons in the Jail were eligible toa place in the penitentiary. (Mr, Strong—his honor is mistaken.) His honor complained of being uncourteously treated in bringing forward this resolution so hastily; but on the 3rd Feb., Mr. Harvie addressed a letter to the Government respecting the offensive condition of one of the prisoners, but nothing had been done in the matter. He would ac- quit the Provincial Secretary of blame, for he was confident that if he had been here, and the communication addressed to him, not a day would have elapsed without an at- tempt to apply a remedy. He (Mr. McGill) had visited the Jail this morning, and found that there were two cases of feverin it, and whatcondition would they and their feilow prisoners be in, confined as they were in those over-crowded and ill-ventilated cells ? The fever would be through the whole building in a dayortwo. A few weeks ago the public were horrified at the explosion at Bremerhaven ; but did not the man who caused that explosion act in a more humane manner than the Government in allowing those prisoners to suffer a lingering death ? If he had to choose between the two he would prefer being blown up. He believed the resojulion was not strong enough. The Government were guilty of criminal negli- gence, and should be tried at the barof a court of justice.

Hon. Mr. Strong asked why his honor did not embody the Dominion Government in the resolution if he would not excuse them.

Hen, Mr. McGill replied that they were not as much to blameas the Local Government, but if he were in the Dominion Parliament he would expose them just as freely.

Hon. Mr. Strong said, in regard to send- ing prisoners to Prince County, that he un- derstood the Jail there was full, When the prisoners were taken from the old Jail to the new one some had to be taken back. There were proper visitors for the Jails. He, as a member of the Government, had never heard any complaint till he heard itin this House. it now appeared that the Government had many more children than they were aware of. He did not feel flattered by this addittion to his family.

Hon. Mr. Balderston reminded his honor that the matter had been brought to his no- tice by amember of this House. He had uns derstood that Prince County Jail was almost unoccupied, and a law might have been pass- ed to send some of the prisoners there. If the Dominion Government were as much to blame he would not hesitate to censure them.

Hon. Mr. Bolger did not think there was any necessity for such a sweeping resolution, and believed it was introduced for some sel- fish purpose, (Mr. Laird—erder—no insinu- ations.) He believed the Dominion Govern- ment was as much to blame as the Local Government

ion. Mr. Strong would remind his honor who called the last speaker to order that the Government had been compared to the man who blew up the ship at Bremerhaven.

iion. Mr. McGill—They are worse.

Hon. Mr. Munn said the Government were the guardians of the public interests, and if they were not aware of the state of the Jail they should have been. There had been sullicient time since the matter was brought to their notice by a member of the House, to take some steps to remedy this grievance. A workhouse should have heen provided long ago. It was too bad to have to pay for

keeping those prisoners in idleness when they should be at work, In i873 the state of the Jail was referred to in the Governor's speech at the opening of the session, but nothing had been done, and he could not acquit the Government of blame.

Non. Mr. McDonald said that the crowded slaie ofthe Jail was matter for regret, butif better accommodation was provided for the prisoners they would probably be more nu-

| others, it was vain for his honor to plead igs

norance of the state of the jail. Even if the officers whose duty it was to visit the jail had not done their duty, the Government would be responsible for keeping them in power. They had been told that they were acting uncourteously towards the Govern- ment; but he would go further, and say that if one of those young men who had fever in the jail died before Monday, bis blood would be upon the head of the Government.

Hon. Mr. Strong asked what the Govern. men were to do,if the jail should be filled in a few weeks.

Hon. Mr. McGill replied that it was a con- fession of incompetency, that they could not find a remedy for this state of things. He would hire a house, and take those young lads out of the jail. Ifthe grievance were not redressed he would bring it before the Governor General.

Hon. Mr. McEwen said, that a person merely looking into the jail would not think matters were so bad as they were represent- ed to be by the report. It was very unfor- tunate for the reputation of the Province that the Government did not attend to this matter sooner. The practice of placing young lads in the cell with hardened crimnals could not be too strongly condemned. The resolution was strong, but the Legislature should spear out so as to force the Government to take action, and remove this grievance. It could not have been unknown to the Government, and they should not have been so negligent. If the Dominion Government were negligent of their duty, the Local Government should have reminded them of it, and urged them to it. He would support the resolution.

Hon. Mr. Strong said it should be remem- bered that our means were limited. The Govenrment had expended a large sum for a Court House and Jail in Prince County, and $80,000 were voted last year fora Lunatic Aslyum. He lamented the grievance as much as any person, but the want of funds was the real reason why it was not removed. That was a strong argument against passing such a sweeping resolution. It would suffice to call the attention of the Government to the matter, for they would feel justified in incurring expenses to remove the grievance when backed up by the people’s representa- tives. In fact the Dominion Government were included in this wholesale condemn- nation, for the preamble to the resolution said the state of the Jail was a disgrace to the whole Dominion. He approved of much that had been said. and admitted that it was the duty of the Government to reform as well as to punish ; but there was no necessity for such an unchuaritable and censorious resolution.

The Black Hills Indians resent the intrusion of white men upon their territory and the latest advices are in effeet that a large num~ ber of whites have been killed, wounded or taken prisoner on the road between Custer City and fort Laramie. A point called Pied (anon seems to be the rendezvous of the In- dians, and its position enables them to at- tack any force passing in that direction with impunity. Gold hunting seems a perilous enterprise in the Black Hills.

King George of Greece has sent a letter to the Greek Consul at Boston to be presented to the widow of the late Dr. S. G- Howe, the philahthropist, expressing the regret enter- tained by himself and his people for the loss of so distinguished and ardenta friend of the Hellenic cause. Dr. Howe,who is well known throughout the civilized world for his noble exertions on behalf of the deaf-mute and the blind, paid a visit to Greece in his youth, during the struggle of 1821, and took no small share in contributing towards the ats tainment of freedom for that country. In 1866, in his old age, he also thought it his duty to return to the land of his youthful en- thusiasm to participate in the aid to be ren- dered to the oppressed Christians of Crete during the conflict of creeds and races which then desolated that island.

There has been many ludicrous stories told about court etiquette, but the following, which Moncure D. Conway tells of the Engs lish court, surpasses most of them, ‘< It is considered indispensible that ladies introducs ed ai court or received there shall wear very low bodied dresses, Just before the last drawing room, Lady , wife of the diss tinguished nobleman, wrote to the Lord Chamberlain, saying that she had recently been ill, and her shoulders had become so thin that she was ashamed to show them! The Chamberlain, knowing how strict the Queen was, referred the matter to her, anda grand consultation was held. After a long and serious debate, the Lord Chamberlain was instructed to write to the petitioning lady that her Majesty would for once give her consent to the innovat on, but it was intimat- ed that the dress must be a compromise, that is cut down in front. The court papers re- ferred vaguely to this court dress, stating that it was by her Majesty’s gracious and special concession, in order that it may not become a precedent ?”

THANKS “ FROM THE DEPTHS OF THE HEART.”

Wettirneron, Lorrain Co., O., Dr. R. V. Prerce, Buftalo. N. Y.:

Dear Sir—Your medicines, Golden Medical Discovery, Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy, have proved of the greatest service tome. Six months ago no One thought that 1 could possibly live long. I had a complication of diseases,— scrofula, manifesting itself in eruptions and great blotches on my head that made suck sores thatel could not have my head combed without causing me much suffering; also causing swollen glands, tonsils enlarged, enlarged or ‘ thick neck,’ and large and numerous boils. I also suffered from a terrible Chronic Catarrh, and in fact I was so diseased that life was a burden to me. I had tried ae doctors with no benefit. I finally procured one-half dozen bot- tles of your Golden Medical Discovery and one dozen Sage’s Catarrh Remedy and commenced their use. At first | was badly discouraged, but after, taking four bottles of the Discovery I began to improve, and when I had taken the re- mainder I was well. In addition to the use of the Discovery I applied a solution of Iodine to the Goitre or thick neck, as you advise in — wrapping, and it entirely disapp-ared. ‘our discevery is certainly the most wondertul blood medicine ever invented. I thank God and you, from the depth of my heart, for the great good it has done me,

Very gratefully, Mrs. L. CHAFFEE.

Most medicines which are advertised as blood purifiers and liver medicines contain either mer- cury, in some form, or potassium and iodine variously combined. All of these agents have strong tendency to break down the blood cor- puscles,and debilitate and otherwise permanent- ly injure the human sysvem, and should there- fore be discarded. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, on the other hand, being composed of the fluid extracts of native plants, barks and roots, will in no case produce injury, its effects being strengthening and curative only. Sarspa- rilla which used to enjoy quite a reputation asa blood purifier, is a remedy of thirty years ago, and may well give place as it is duing to the more positive and valuable vegetable altera- tives which later medical investigation and dis- covery has brought to light. In Scrofula or King’s Evil, White Swelling, Ulcers, Erysiplas, Swelled Neck, Goitre,Scrotulous Loflammations, Indolent Inflammation, Mercurial Affections, Old Sores, Eruptions of the Skin, and Sore Eyes as in all other blood diseases Dr. Pierce s Gold- eo Medical Discovery has shown its great rem- edial powers, curing the most obstinate and in- tractible cases.

Ihave, therefore, at the request of alarge number of my friends and patrons, opened a BRANCH FACTORY AT CARDIGAN BRIDGE, which is conducted by a competent mechanic, who served his time in the ‘‘ Nonpareil,” and has since worked for several years in the United States—a mechanic who knows his business, and has such an interest in the work as to allow nothing but a faithful job to pass. He and several competent workmen will attend to the wants of the public in that County.

The stock used in the construction of the work will be of the best imported, viz :— American Hickcry, Oak. Ash, Elm, Bass, Whitewood, etc., etc. The iron will be of the best English refined; and Norway and Swedish iron will be used for the parts re quiring extra strength and durability.

Also, in connection with the said branch is a PAINTSHOP, which is conducted by a first-class carriage-painter, who will attend to the painting of new and second-hand work for the public.
