Locat ELections are going on in New Brunswick. There are plenty of candi- dates; and but little else worth mention- ing. No great questions disturb the minds ef New Brunswick’s local politicians.
AccorpInG to late information received at Ottawa, among the names which have ob- tained prominence in connection with the Governor-Generalship of Canada are those ef Earl Carnarvon, Earl Hardwicke, Lord Normanby, a former Colonial Governor, and Lord Rosslyn.
We are very much pleased to hear that Mr. T. B. Reagh, who left here on Satur- day week to be ordained a Deacon of the Church of England by the Bishop of Nova Scotia, passed an eminently successful ex amination prior to his ordination. We heartily congratulate our friend on his suc- cess. —-Argus.
Party feeling in Montreal seems still to run high. Our despatches chronicle the small beginnings of a row between an Orange Young Briton and a Catholic youth, which led to a conflict between 2,000 and 3,000 people, and required a troop of cavalry and a body of police to restore order. This was not done, however, before several persons had been wounded. Another serious row and from a different cause is reported in our Montreal despatches.— Tel.
We direct the attention of the electors of this Province, whose names are not already on the Voters Lists, to the advertisement in another column, showing the times and places in which the Courts of Revision are to be held throughout the Island. In a few months at most there will be a general elec- tion for the Dominion. No voter will be permitted to record his vote unless regis- tered on the Voters’ List. Hence the im- portance, on the part of all those whose names are not on the List, of making it a point to attend the Courts of Revision in their respective sections. — Argus.
[We think the important advertisement alluded to above should be published in all Island papers. —Ep. Examrver.[
Tue NortH Nation, Peoriye STARVING, Bre.—Yesterday, a Frenchman, who has lately come down from the North Nation, informed our reporter that the people of that place were ina frightful condition of destitution, being obliged to boil down bass- wood leaves in order to keep themselves from starving. Even the parish priest of the place has been sometimes for weeks, obliged to live on buckwheat and molasses. Our informant stated that their wearing ap- parel was in a most filthy condition, being obliged to mend them over and again, until there was nothing to mend. He says that whatever little hopes they had from the coming summer’s crop has been destroyed through the ravages of the potato-bug and other causes. — Ottawa Herald.
Nor on THE ProcramMe.—During tlic afternoon, yesterday, His Excellency Lord Dufferin, whilst on the street at Hope's corner, was greeted by many of our me- chanics, who cordially and honestly bade him, good-bye, and amongst the number was one not set down on the regular programme, but not likely to be forgotten by His Excel- lency. A well-known public character, in fact no less a person than our city bill-post- er, Alex. Jacques, stepped up to him, hat in hand, and said in his genial style, ‘‘ My Lord, as a native Canadian, a true son of this soil, I wish reluctantly to say good-bye -—good-bye to the best man your country has ever sent to mine.” His Excellency seemed to accept the compliment so honest- ly intended. and heartily shaking the hand extended said, ‘“Thank you for the compli- ment.” Such cordiality has made His Ex- cellency what he is—the most popular man in Canada. —Ottawa Herald.
Pownat Wuarr.—The work of extend- ing Pownal Wharf is now nearly done, and needs but a few finishing touches to make it complete. It consists first of three blocks ef timber forming three sides of a hollow square which it was originally intended to have filled up with pile work; but after the contractors had commenced the work they found it would be next to impossible to drive piles on account of a lot of stone which was submerged in that locality, and they were therefore authorized by the Coun- cil to build the centre of the extension of the block similar to the exterior. This has now been done, and notbing remains but to finish the top planking and drive the neces- sary piles around the extension to make it complete. To give the structure increased solidity the interior of the blocks has been filled up one-third with stone. The timber used in its construction is, without excep- tion, the best we have ever seen, and it is worthy of note that every inch of it has been grown and sawn on this Island. The width of the extension is about 110 feet at the bottom and 105 feet at the top. The whole structure is built in the most sub- stantial manner, every piece of timber being fastened together with strong iron_ bolts. The contractors for this work are Messrs. John Sinnett, of St. Peter's Harbor, and Augustin Callaghan, of Lot 11; and to these
ntlemen too much credit cannot be given = the excellent workmanship displayed on this large undertaking. When finished, it will be, without exception, the finest wharf in the city, both in appearancg and con- atruction. We understand that it is the in- tention of the Civic authorities to make the old wharf of the same width as the new ex- tension, and when this is done it will make it equal to any wharf in the Maritime Prov- inces, — Patriot.

The excitement in the House is terrific, and has been greatly intensified by the delay in taking the vote. The debate has lapsed into talking against time. Both sides are ranged in their fullest strength, and if the vote is taken to-night it will be at a late hour.
