Haitrax is to have a Graving Dock. Mr. Morris, 2 London engineer, one of the firm who are erecting the Esquimault Graving Dock, at British Celumbia, called to see the Mayor of Halifax on Friday last, and informed him that active operations on the Halifax dock, would probably commence next month. This is gratifying intelligence fer the people of Halifax.

\ MOVEMENT is being made in Quebec which will more extensively develop the grain trade of Canada with Kurope. Lead- ing members of a syndicate are now there fer the purpose of commencing the work. The transhipment will be made from barges by means of floating elevators into the ocean steamers or sailing vessels in the new tidal basin now dredged out, and at Indian Cove, which is well adapted for that trade, large warehouses and elevators will be erected on the new Princess Louise em bankment, but the bulk of the trade will be done by mere transhipment. The capital available te contro! this extensive trade is said to be $5,000,000.

Tur National Currency League held a meeting in Toronto on Wednesday last. The meeting was largely attended, and speeches were made by leading members of the League. The platform of the League was made known; and, in brief, provides for a national currency, no importatien of English nayvies at Government expense, no Chinese labor, no land monopolies, to grant of land by Government to companies, a protective tariff, raw material to be ad- mitted freega graduated income tax, the mortgagee to pay taxes on property to the ameunt of his claim. At the close of the meeting Mr. A. W. Wright, editor of the Commonwealth, was unanimously nominat- ec Currency League candidate at the com- ing election in West Toronto. Mr. Wright has the name of being a clever writer and a (luent speaker.

Tue Patriot awaits with great anxiety the publication of the complete revenue returns for the year, and with genuine pat- rivtism gloats over an anticipated deficit of a million or two. The complete returns will be published as soon as the Gevern- ment can possibly do so. Let the editor of the Patriot, therefore, possess his seul in patience. Ifthe deficit that the Putriot expects don’t appear, there will be weeping end gnashing of teeth in the Patriot eamp. One would think from ita tone of late that a deficit was an unusual occurrence in Can- adian administration. The Patriot seems to forget that such a man as Sir Richard Cartwright ever existed. All at once he appears to have contracted a horror of de- Geits ; and by the time the returns for the year are published he will have his virtu- ous indignation worked up to the right pitch for au assault on the financial policy ci the Government. During the term of Mr. Cartwright’s administration, when he a cumulated deficits to the amount of eight

lv is patent that the fares and more es- pecially the rates of freight of our railway should not be arranged on the same basis as those of Continental Roads. The latter extend for thousands of miles, and, besides the way traftic, afford through passage and through freight between distant points. The former is entirely dependent upon the ‘(way traflic,’ and 1s subject to the com petition of the numerous schooners sailing around our coasts, and to the horses and carriages, with which every farmer, and almost every inhabitant is supplied, = It follows that to obtain the way trattic, the rates charged by the railway must be sub- ‘ect to these circumstances. ‘To fix them according to the scale on which the rates of the Intercolonial, the Grand Trunk, or other railways of the Continent, is to drive away traflic. Our railway authorities have heen compelled to acknowledge this fact. They have been constrained to issue second as well as first-class tickets and to abate the rates of freight on many articles. The abatement on ‘‘mussel mud” resulted in a large increase of traftic, and was an incalecul- able boon tu the farmers of the country. Every reduction that has been made has, we believe, resulted in the same way ; and we believe that further reductions will be followed by similar results. At all events, the country ealls for further reductions ; and we hope the Government will see its way clear, consistently with the mainten- ance of the road and the interests of the public te make them.

interests of the colony, attributes the fact to the manner in which the Norwegians cure the fish. It says :—‘‘ It is unhappily true that until recent seasons we relied very unwisely on the fixedness of this char- acter, on the natural superiority of the qual- ity of the Newfoundland article ; aud hence, and from the activity of competition in the the despatch of early cargoes, arose a great deal of negligence inthe treatment of the fish. We ourselves thus stimulated the efforts of

‘ : ; | the Norwegians to supplant us with custom-

ers ;and they were not slow to turn our short- comings to their profit in a remarkable degree. “heir exports, which had hereto- ore been comparatively unimportant, ac- quired sudden growth; and though in quality their fish was admittedly inferior to ours, they succeeded, by lower prices and better cure, in displacing us in markets in which we had previously held almost ex- clusive possession. A return has just been placed in our hands which is an alarming exhibit of our loss resulting from these causes, and possibly from others which do not come within our reckoning. This paper gives the imports of codfish into Spain for the season of 1879-80, showing that while Norway sent there during the year the large expert of 615.319 quintals, Newfoundland sent only 200,285 quintals, of which 153,010 quintals were of Labrador and 47,475 quintals shore catch. So that of the total quantity of 815,705 quintals shipped te the various markets of Spain, this country supplied not one-fourth.” This is a subject of great interest to the fishermen of the Maritime Provinces,

RENDERED SENSELESS.

A fearful thunder and lightning storm pass ed ever the north side of the Island, on the mornivg of Friday last. One of the fishing stages at New London Harbor was struck by the fluid, the gable end was completely mad- dled ; the fluid following the corner posts of the building and also those upon which it stood, sRivering them all to spltuters. At the time there were nine persons in the house

one woman and eight men. Sev eral ot them were rendered senseless by the shock, and, sad to relate, one of the men Mr. Jamvs Kinsman, of St. Kleanors, was instant- ly killed. Mr. Kinsman is supposed to have been asleep at the time of the melancholy ec: it is strange that the woman, who her head against the gable end, She escaped death but re- ceived severe injuries, from which she 1s likely to recover. A coroner's inquest was held the same morning by James Pigecn, Esq., and a verdict rendered in accordance with the facts of the case. Dr. McNeill was promptly summoned to the scene of the aeci- dent. He reports the patients doing well aud likely to recover. On behalf of the friends of the deceased, we tender the people of New London their sincere thanks for the great kindness extended towards them in the hour of their affliction. —S. Progress.

“To sum it up, six long years of bed-rid- den sickness and suffering, costing $200 per year, total $1,200—all which was stopped by three bottles of Hop Bitters taken by my wife, who has done her own house- work for a year since, without the loss of a day, and I want everybody to know it for their benefit.”
