DECE MB ER 4, 1878.

A yeAR and a half have rolled away sand

the Darty Examiner still lives.

Indeed it may now be truly said that the |

Daity ExaMINER is one of the tions’ of the Province.

An appetite for a daily paper has been | l i

formed; and, judging by the increasing sales |

of the Dainty EXAMINER

the line of railway, and in the various towns |

throughout the Province, it is doubtful if the people could live without their daily paper.

Hard though the times and dark the pros- pect of the coming winter, it 1s our inten- tion to continue the publication of the Dairy Examiner, so that the popular de- mand may be supplied.

Throughout the winter we intend to sup- ply to the public, by means of the Darty EXAMINER, a daily telegra:u containing news of all the notable events which shall tran- spire throughout the world in this great crisis of its history.

Through the Datty ExsMINneR the people of the Island shall—-from day to day—and, independently of the Northern Light o1 Mutiart and Irving—be informed of what is transpiring in Afghanistan, in Russia, Germany, in the neighboring Republic, anc most important of all—in the mother

ountry.

We shall, if possible, send a special cor- respondent to report for the Darry Examr- NeR the Parliamentary proceedings at Oitawa, with special reference to those which most directly and most deeply inter- est the people of this Island.

The local news shall be given through the Datty Examiner promptly, truly and as full as possible.

For the large means required to carry out this work we look to the people whose wants the Datry Examiner will supply, and whose varied interests we shall assidu- ously endeavor to promote.

The original subscribers of the Datmy EXAMINER will, in the conrse of a few days, be called for a renewal of their favors.

The beginning of another term is a good time to subscribe ; and persons who have not hitherto taken the Dauy Examiner would do well to subseribe now.

In connection with the Darry Examiner the Weexty Examiner will be issued, at the unprecedentedly low subscription price of ONE DOLLAR a year-—payment to be made in advance.

Bishop of Down and Connor, Dr. Dorrian,

| Viscount Templet own, the Protestand Lord | Bishop of Down, Lord Waveney, and | After some preliminary observa- | uions Lord Dufferin rose in response to a; toast of his health. Huis Lordship said the snecess of a Colonial Governor depends as | much on his good fortune as his good con- | duct. He might easily encounter “insvluble problems of popular discontent, be betrayed | by his ministers, be thwarted by his Parlia- } mont nature itself might rise against him and his rule be signalized by pestilence, famine or war. These trials, Lord Dufferin said, he had been most happily spared. He found the people of Canada not only free from dissensions, but enamored of their prospects as a people. Many questions still agitating Europe were already settled for Canada. Pending controversies among themselves were being conducted with as much moderation as even in Ireland. itself. (Cheers). His Ministers had proved able and trustworthy. While contentment reigned within the New Dominion there was peace without. On three sides Canada was without a neighbor. On her southern frontier lay a mighty but a most friendl nation. His Lordship then alluded to the prompt and honorable payment of the fish- eries award, and passed a warm eulogium on the American people, of whose good sense, good feeling and gereral courtesy too much could not be said by any candid per- son who had enjoyed any real opportunity of testing them. He gave the Earl of Car- narvon, as Colonial Minister, and his pre- decessors, Lord Monck and Lord Ligar, and the British Minister at Washington, the chief credit for the haleyon tres he had known. in. the New World. Passing then to matters nearer home, Lord Dufierin gratefully acknowledged the presence on this occasion of so many persons of politics different from his own, — Officials in the service. of the country abroad would al ways count, he was glad to say, on the countenance of the Government of the day at home. He had served under three Secretaries of State, and. he would find it difficult to say in the hands of which he had felé most. secure while attempt- ing to discharge his duty asthe ser- vant not of a party, but of the nation. (Cheers.). Even when the acts of public of- ficials at a distant point of duty appeared rash, the Beitish public and tie British press, he was giad tu say, forebore Yo pre- judge their case. 1t was simply just to re- member that a Colonial Governor had to conciliate two public opinions—that of the Colony and that of the Mother Couatry. These two sometimes diverged; and the un- fortunate Governor was then like an. eques- trian acrobat straddling over two. horses. While the steeds keep together he is all right, but if they start asunder, or if one of them trots while the other gallops, down he comes to the ground. (Laughter and cheers.) He felt that this demonstration was not mere compliment to himself,though he cordially appreciated its personal aspects also. It was an intimation of the deep in- terest which the British people take in Canada. The people of Great Britain might be sure that nothing so stimulated the affection of the Canadians as proof of this imterest and sympathy. John Bull is not naturally a very sympa- pathetic or sentimental creature, and per- haps he sometimes fails to make due al- lowance for other people’s warmer suscepti- bilities. When dealing with kindred na- tionalities intelligent men ought to take their sentimental tendencies as well as their interests into account. The ties created be- tween thousands of people in Great Britain and their emigrant relations had contribut- ed immensely to unify the Colonial system of Great Britain, and Jolin Bull had learned at last that instead of confining his atten-

Oo the rs.

tion to his home farm he must now concern himself with his imperial estates. If Eng-

land is true to herself and to those ske has sent to plant the laws and liberties ef Brit- ain all over the face of the earth her empire will find the realms associated with it every day more and more disposed to recognize their unity, more and more ready to “take an honest pride in their common anteced- ents, more and more prompt to oppose a solid front: to every common enemy, and more and more deterriined to keep sacred and intact for ail time to come the princi- ples of that free and menarchial constitution which, as experience has proved to English- men, was the most solid bulwark of a true Parliamentary Government. (Great cheer- ing. )

The People Want Proof.

There is 10 medicine prescribed by physi

cians, or sold by Druggists, that carries such

evidence of its success and superior virtues as Boscuer’s German Syrup for severe Coughs, Colds settled on the breast, Consumption, or any disease of the Throat and Lungs. A proof of that fact is that any person icted, can get a Sample Bottle for 10 cents and. try its superior effect before buying the regular size at 75 cents. It has lately been introduced in this country from Germany, and its wonderfu eures are astonishing everyone that use it. Three doses will relieve any case. Try it.

Journalism.

Tus Montreal Witness says : ‘‘ The intel- lectual effects of reading, all-important as they are to the future of growing minds, shaping them, as it were, after its own less serious than its moral effects. ‘On what a young person reads depends very vreatly his moral life and health. He may by it be made great, or by it be fitted only ‘for the. abodes of ‘death. To supply the right reading for a people is the greatest work that can be undertaken. How many enter on it with no holy desire to serve their generation by the will of God, anxious only to produce what will best meet the ex- istiug demand ! This is the vice of modern journalism. It is a degradation of the high mission that is committed to it of shaping the very being of ‘the people. The ambi- tion of the journalist should be to turn the mind of the age away from the vile and the low, and towards whatsoever things are pure and of good report.”

Distress and Dissatisfaction Among the Indians,

A Battleford correspondent of the Mail says the Indians in that region are starving, and that Government pay day is weeks overdue. He says their complaints against the Indian officials are well founded; the agricultural implements supplied by the agents are cheap trash, purchased for a song in the Eastern markets; their instruc- tors are half-breeds who know litile about agriculture, while the cattle which have been provided for them equal in wildness and surpass in natural ferocity the bison of the plain. One or two of the Chiefs have refused the cattle, and others complain that they have been deceived with regard io the treaties. By way of insulting the police, they sent an old sqaw to represent them at a pow-wow; and in speaking of Mr. Laird they say, ‘‘The Queen’s Councillors are a poor lot; they are like buffalo calves.” The correspondent adds that Mr. Mill’s offieial reports were jittle better than romances, and that great dissatisfaction exists alnong the tribes throughout the territory.

Cur Indian Army.

Tho British army in India numbers 63,- 210 men, and the native Indian army 126,- 77 making a total of 190,087 men, from which the torce now operating. against Af- ghanistan has beendrawn. That force con- sists in round numbers of 35,000 of which one-third is British. The force of artillery employed reaches twenty-five battalions, or 150 guns. ‘The artillery is all British, with the exception of perhaps a battery or two. There will also be a farge reserve force at Peshawur, which, indeed, has of late had the strongest garrison? in British India— and at one or two, other. points neat the northwestern frentier. The available force which the Ameer has at command is not known with any degree of precision, and reports vary greatly. Estimates “of the regular infantry range from 25,000 to _ 60,- 000 t0,50,000 men ; ; of the regular cavalry from 5,000 to 13,000 men, and of the regu- lar field artillery ‘from 30 to 200 guns. ee lowest estimation are the most authentic To the regulars must be added a large force of irregular cavalry and infantry, and the

forces wnich will be bronght into the field by quasi-independent tribes . who may espouse the cause of the Ameer. He _ will

unquestionably have a much large force of infantry and cavalry, than those sent against him; but he will be vastly inferior in field artillery, numerically and in the quality of the guns.

‘az Truro Sua states that Mr. Wa P, ae of Clifton, Colchester County, N, s. attempted to commit suicide while lal boring under a fit of insanity. On Sun- day, the 17¢! i, it was noticed that there was something wrong with him, as during the night he was lecturing and talking in wild accents to tha cattle stabled in the barn. How long the poor man was descanting to his dumb animals is not known, but when morning dawned they fonnd that he had with an axe killed six heed of cattle, only leaving a sucking calf out of all his stock, He had endeavored ‘to kill one of: his horses, but the animal was too strong and spirited for him, and had broken away with the luss of an eye and a dislocated jaw. No one dare approach the man in his ravings, as he threatened death and destruction to all who came near him, After some time a young man named Hamilton got near enough to sce that there was blood on his shirt, and that bis throat was cut in a fearful manner. His only son, a young man about 20, at once went to Truro for medical assistance. Dr. D. S Muir immediately went to the scene of the now tragical action, but found it impossible t> get nearer than seeing distance to the pitiful object before him, and he was oblig- ed to return to Truro without dressing the ghastly wounds. On Monday special con- stable Wm. Yuill, after a most hazardous attempt, got the man secured. The insane man was brought to Truro jail. His wounds were dressed, and found to be most serious, His throat was cut badly, and his arm was cut almost in twain in two places. The most surprising feature of the whole is that he did not bleed to death, as his wounds were in most vital parts.
