To the Editor of the Examiner :

Dear Sin,—Your independent paper has called forth the ire of the Dominion Pies mier and his sittelites, At Summersiie the Premier made the Dairy Examiner a text forthe tirade of abuse agamst J. C. Pope. At Charlottetown he again siiowed the narrowness of his mind by huving a fling at the Examixer.

Instead of answering your question why Cauchon, the man who was rdénk ani smelled to heaven, was placed in the Usb» net, he flies off on a tangent about ye fences, The Premier evidentiy itrit ie force of the EXAMINER'S Criticisms oO iis conduct in the steel rail und other j be, and tries to divert public atientop room his acts by mere allusion to loca: matters that happened before we went into Cons tederation. Many went to listen to tii Premier, expecting to hear a dignifted aud manly discourse in defence of tiie acts of his Government. But instead of imat tucy heard nothing but abuse of his opponenc-, coupled with mean illusions to locat po pers and politics. ~ What a fail was there, my countrymen,’ when the Leader of {ie Party of Purity bad to defend himse.f oy saying that “Sir Jobn A, did the same,” [lis conduct was such that many who w-nt to listen to the Premier, wel! disposed io- wards him, left the meeting disgusted and disappointed with his narrow and con- temptible conduct,

OUR PARIS LETIER,

Pauis, July 3l.

In fashionabie language, ‘‘all Paris’ means some forty thousand of the inhabi» tants, the’remainder one and three qi acter millions are but hewers of wood and druw- ers Of water. ‘I'ne*forty thousand foliow, or imitate each other, like the monton de panurge, save this summer, where half the ttock, Owing to political or finaacial reasons, has repudiated the follow my-leader game of going to a Spa or the Sea Side. Tne life at both these places is quite different, and the first is the overture or preparation for thesecond. I'he wealthy and the idle— and it is not surprising, are, from their po. sitions, naturally invalids, real or imagin- ary. The exciting or wearisome round of winter, &c. festivities, must be followed by another round ata mineral water station to repair stomachs, livers and spleens, and fortify nerves, Since the war, the French never patronise Ems, Baden, c., they have discovered in their own country, springs equally efficacious for minds: de- ceased and bosoms full of penlous staff. Vichy, Canterets, Lucbon, &c., are tie principal drinking stations; the first is the most patronised, because most animated, and it is the safest rendezvous that the speciality doctors can recommend to sturdy invalids, Three weeks is the orthedox so-« journ to make at Vichy, and two montis at the sea~side. The mode of life is quite different at both places; but Belgravian mothers will find more chances in tavor of their speculations at a mineral, than at a salt,watering place. [he patients—that is— the visitors, live more in common in the former, and social usages follow a uniform current. ‘There are the table d’hote draw, ingxroom reunions, and excursion parties. [Individual life becomes absolved in a gens eralregime. A lady of the most simple taste is unconscionsly absolved by ine stream. At the sea-side she is in her own villa or apartments, and so free to act, and can pass the day with tw toilettes, or at most three; but at Vicby she must bave tive, each following @ series of metamora phases,/rom that worn in the morning when

gloves with that worn at the /able d ivle—a \repastat which all ladies are said to be ‘more or less coquettes.
