LETTERS TO THE EDITOR,

The “Free Corn” Vote.

Sir,—A good deal was said last year about the way our representatives at Ot- tawa sacrificed the interests of us farmers by voting to have the duty of 74 cents per bushels taken off corn. Every farmer knows if that were done it would drive our oats entirely out of the markets of Nova Seotia and New Brunswick. It is a fast that of late years nearly all of our oats has been marketed there. No other market would, after paying charges, leave shippers as much to represent the price the farmer is to receive. The market of sixty million people in the United States, which the Grits and those favoring unrestricted reci- procity (which is now known as the short road to annexation) hold up for our admir- ation, would not leave us twenty cents per bushel after paying all expenses. This ‘*home market” in the provinces fulfils, to that extent, the promises and expectations of the promoters and supporters of the

A Winter Trip.

Mr. T. L. Chappelle, writing to Tur EXAMINER from Taunton, Mass., says :

A trip by the SS. Halifax at this season of the year is not always a luxury. She left Halifax on time (10 o’clock) Wednes- day, 5th inst., but when two miles down the harbor Capt. Hiil decided to cast anchor on account of a furious gale. We lay fast until 8.30 p. m., when the trip was resumed, and did not reach Boston until 9 o’elock Friday morning—19 hours behind time. The sail up Boston Harbor is inter- esting, especially when you have a party competeut to show the various points. I will only now speak of several. It is not generally known that there is situated here a small plot of land named Apple Island, between Fort Winthrop and Point Shirley, which was deeded to Queen Victoria by one of her loyal subjects. This, possibly, isthe only possession of Her Majesty in the vast domain of Jonathan.
