The Tariff and Prices.
THE Moueta y Times, an indepencent
commercial journal, is pleased with the;
Budget of Sir Leonard Tilley. It says “the revenue producing capacity of the tariff has been amply proved by the result,” and that ‘‘it is patent that the tariff has
tended to foster and develop manufac- | \the programme was filed in with soul-
tures.” It says :—
“This fact is so patent, it lies so clearly;
on the surface. that ne one can have failed tv notice it. Sir Leonard Tilley has aszer-
tained that, between the month ef March, | 1879, and October, 1881, 95 new manufac. | '** , ; rsipging, in which the several parts were {judiciously proportioned, was almost fault-
tories, employing 7,025 hands, were set up. Besides which, there are pow in course of construction cotton factories that will employ 5,000 hands. These figures do not! embrace all the factories, for the| enquiries from which they are derived, extended to only a part of the Dominion.” |
The Monetary Times has reduced Sir! Leonard's comparison of prices to a tabula- | ted form, for greater ease of reference: In! the Budget epeech are the fellowing quo- | tations ;

The Monetary Times also shows that, while prices have been lowering in Canada,
Thus sugar, for which Sir Leonard claims greater cheapness, had gone up in the States from 7hc. to 73c.; tea (Young Hyson) from 124 to 15 cents; cut nails from $2 15 to $3.20; iron from $8 03 to $12.03; glass from 30to40 cents. Of leather manufac: turers the price was the same; and two arti- cles, one kind of glass and castile soap, were lower.

hundred persons present, Notwithstanding the absence of ex-Governor Laird and other gentlemen, who were expected to take a part in the entertainment, its literacy char- acter’ was fairly sustained. Rev. Mr, ‘Archibald’s address on ‘‘ Trne Manhood” jwas a masterly effort, and reflected much
‘credit on him as a public speaker. Mr. Wilkaw Laird also gave an instructive address which was well received. Then
followed seme choice recitations by Misses
Magvie Smith, M. Moffatt, and Jane Smith, and an excellent reading by Mr. A. McDonald. The remainder of
stirring music (instrumental end vocal), which formed the most pleasing feature of the entertainment. Miss Marianne Link-
letter presided at the organ, and ad- mirably performed her part. The
less, and bore evidence of careful pre- paration. In our opinion ‘ Nobody's Child,” by the children of, the scheol, was best piece that was sung. It was— well, ** just too utterly sweet for anything.”
nanthem, by the choir, entitled, ** Jeru- salem, my Glorious Home,” was also sung with good effect, and elicited a well- 7 mal — : Pa z ; deserved appianse After singing the time-lenered Doxology in which the whole audience joined, the meeting was brought to & close.
It would appear from’ the following inei- deat that the fourth commandment is rigidiy enforced at Wheatley River: As one of our neighbours was, with difficulty, making his way home on the Sunday fol- lowing the ‘‘ big storm” (on Friday, the 17th ult.) he was treated to rathera severe lecture on the sin of Sabbath-breakirg, by a certain seint of that place, whese righteons soul was filled with horror and indignation at the sight of such enormous wickedness. If we have been correctly informed, our poor sinner narrowly escaped being fined. Now, while it is true thet there is ofien more work done on the Sab- bath than is altegether necessary, yet it must be remembered, on the other hand, that due allowance has been made for works of necessity and mercy, and that under certain circumstances, travelling on that day might be in perfect keeping with the requirements of the fourth command-
ment. As it must, therefore, be im- possible to discriminste in all ceses, we do not think it would he wise
to make a business of fining, or even of threatening to fine those who may be travelling on the Sabbath, especially as there are so many other ways in which we may do good. Of course no one will pre- sume to blame the pious gentlemen or conbt the purity of his motives. His act was alt gether preisewe entitle him to the kindly applause of man- kind. There are many, however, who think that if a large portion of his opu stock of christien zeal was werked off some other direction, more gocd would be accomplished, while the interests of mo- rality aud religion would not euffer.
As an indication of the flourishing con- dition of onr Literary Society, it might be mentioned that not withstanding te stormy weather and bad reads, regular, and for the most part, well atterded meetings have been kept up throughout the winter. Quite a number of practical, as well as
other isteresting questions, have been debated. The question ciscussed at the
last meeting was: ‘* Which would be the best means of securing continueus com- munication with the Mainland, winter and summer, as provided by the Terms of Union.” It was, by far, the most import- ant question that ever came before the Society, and a very deep interest was manifested in it by all who were present. The diserssion was participated in by Mesers. William Laird, Geo. Smith, Alex. McDoneld, Jas. Moffat, Chas. Dickieson, A. Moffat and others. At its close the following resolution, which was moved by Mr. Win Laird, and seconded by Mr. Geo. Smith, was put to the meeting and carried ,—
Whereas, It is plainly stated in the Terms of Unicon, under which this Island became confederated with the General Government, that efficient steam communication for the eonveyance of mails and passengers, between the Island and the Mainland of the Domi ien, would be establi-hed and main- tained winter and summer, thus placing the Island io continuous communication with the Interecolonial Railway and the Railway Sys-
ten. of the Dominion.

Work on the Rustico Breakwater is now being vigorously pushed forward. There are at present upwards of one hundred mei engaged in hewing and hauling timber while a large number are also employed at the harbor. Mr. Heary thoroughly under- siands his business, and has already given unmistakable evidence of his ability to suc- cessfully accomplish the work which he has undertaken.
We learn that the Cavendish Road Debating Society has been wrestling with the question: ‘‘ If a man should plant a pumpkin near his line-fence, and it should grow over on his neighbor’s land, and pro duce a pumpkin, who would be the legal ewner of the said pumpkin ?’

Many of our neighbors were badly snowed up after the lest severe storm. One family in particular must have had rather a hard time of it, as may be jadged from the fact that it was found necessa to take breakfast by lam) light, at 8 o’cloe in the morning, and that for atime com- munieation with the outside w-rld bad to be kept-vp by means of an old chimney, which thus became a strange, though ve convenient, medinm of **winter communi- cation.’ We have heard of another man whe was obliged to cut a hele in the reef of his house in order to effect an exit, but we fear this story lacks the essential element.
