Influences of Parents.

In a recent number of the Jowrnal ef the Royal Agricultural Society of England, Mr. James Howard, M. P., writing on their Breeding and Management” (an exceedingly interesting valuable paper) pro- fesses his faith in the Orton's teaching in the celebrated lectures to the Newcastle Farmers’ Club,

a quarter of a eentury ago; and, having

himself made in lependent observations in |

the breeding ef several kinds of stock, and | compared notes with other reade rs, believes | that the following propositions lay down |

‘feardinal points in the art of breeding which have been fairly established:

That from the male parent are mainly derived the external structure, coufigura- tion, and outward characteristics-—the loco- motive peculiarities inclusive.

2. From the female parent are derived the internal structure, the vital organs, and, in a much greater proportion than from the male, tution, temper, habits.

3. That the purer the race of the parent the more certainty there is of its trans- mitting its qualities to the offspring. Say } two animals are mated; if one is of purer descent than the other, he or she will exercise the most influenco in stamping the the character of the progeny, particularly if

const

the greater purity is on the side of the male. 4. That, apart from certain influences or

causes, the male, if of pure race, and de- scended from a stock of uniform colour, stamps the colour of the offspring.

5. That the influence of the first male is not unfrequently protracted beyond the birth of the effspring of which he is the parent, and his mark is left upon subse- quent progeny.

6. That the transmission of diseases of the vital organs is more certain if en the side of the female, and diseases of the joints if on the side of the male parent.

Patrick Egan, in a letter to the tr reasurer of the Home Rule League at Dublin in reply to the recent circular, says that while remanding the Home Rulers, heas one of them, deprecates their idea of attempting to revive and extend their movement at the present juncture by the formation of local associations. He protests against the epe- ning passage of the eircular, which he says wauld appear to imply that the land liqui- dation of the Government had given satis- faction te the lrish people. Egan ironically asks the League why they did not think ef lucal asseicatiohs eight yeaesago, and says the country initsdesire for independence has outgrown Home Rule in iis present form. As long as Parnell, Dillion, and their friends are in prison the revival of the Home Rule agitation must be untimely and prejudical to _ re of Ireland.

1882. THE EXAMINER. 1382.

Now is the time to Renew Subscrip- tions and Subscribe.

Ove of the most prominent questions to be agitated is that of improved com- munication with the Mainland duriog winter and summer. Tue EXAMINER will, in 1882 as in 1881, be actively employed in the discussion of this ques- tion. Ai the suggestion of the Hon. S. Prowse — who seems to have a high opinion of the influence of Tue Exam- INER—and who has taken a leading part in the measures which have been adopted by the Local Legislature aad Govern- ment—we shall keep before the public eye the following extract from the

TERMS OF UNION.

Section 7.—That the Dominion Govern- ment shall assume and defray all the charges for the following services, viz :

Svuxp-Section J.—Efficient steam service for the conveyance of mails and passengers to be established and maintained bet«xeen the Island and the mainland of the Dominion, winter and summer, thus placing the Island | in continuous communication with the Inter- | colonial Railway, and the Railway system ef | the Dominion.

As heretofore, Taz Examrner will, in 1882, advocate the introduction of im- provements calculeted to advance the interests of Prince Edward Island, in particular, and the great Dominion of which we form a part, in general.

THe Examiner is in favor of cutting down the Local Legislature, consolidat- ing the Local Civil Service on a sound business basis, maintaining a system of rigid economy in the administration of and applying the money thus saved to the advancement of the Agricultural and Industrial interests of the Province.

local affairs,

Tue Examtner’s policy shall be, as it has been, first and then Political ; first for the Island, next for Canada, and then for the Party by which both are governed.

Articles on Practical Agriculture will forma prominent feature of Tue Exam- INER during 1582; and our columns will, as heretofore, be well filled with news and interesting miscellany.

Now, rater is the time to subscribe.

MORE LIGHT |

FIIHE Charlottetown Gas Light Company

have imported some of “Bray's Burners,” which they will supply and fit on Gas Brackets, etc., at a moderate cost to consumers.

These Burners are reported to be the best Flat Flame Burner yet produced, and will give a far greater amount of light than any other Burner with the same consumption of Gas.

Dr. Wallace, F. RB. 5. E., F. C. S., Gas Examiner to the Oity of Glasgow, in a lecture delivered by him, calculated that £130,000 ($650,000) a year. are thrown away in Glas. gow by the use of imperfect fittings. On the subject of Gas Burners he says; ** Another and as I think a better Burner is that called Bray’s regulator, ard as I consider these the best unien Burners attainable at moderate cost, I have selected them for a series of ex- periments.”

The Report of the Committee of the British J Association of Science to enquire as to the best means for the development of light from Coal Gas of different qualities—comprising Dr. William Wallace, Professor Dittmar, und Mr. Thomas Wills, F. C.S., F. I. C. E., showed that Bray’s Burners yielded the grectest amount ot light of all the two or three score | of Burners reported upon. which incladedall the Burners of repute in the market,

In @ pamph le t upon Light and Heat, pub- lished by R. B, Taver, A. M., he says: “'The cost of Gas as compared with other illumin- ants is much more economical when rightly used, than many suppose. From experiments made for this purpose, the following results have been obtained. They were made by burning samples of Devoe’s Brilliant Oil and ordinary Oils, and testing their illuminating power. It was found that Coal] Gas costing one cent at $3 per thousand feet, gave a light equal to 18 candles, while Devoe’s

srilliant Oil consuming 27.4 grammes cost- ing halfa cent, gave a light equal to 9 candles,

“A good Argand or Johuson’s Burner, the Burner's used in the last experiment, will therefore give the light of 2 ordinary Oil Burnérs in direct comparison, at no greater expense in the cas: of the finer and safer grades of Oil. Lights, however, on the author- ity of Scientists, are not to be compared in direct proportion, but in proportion to the squares of their powers, and euch a com- | parison with the case of the use of Ges, its ‘cleanliness, freedom from odor and dangers, renders its use desirable wherever it can be ntroduced.”

As the above experiments were made with Gas at $3 per 1000 feet, and not consumed through Bray’s Burners, it will readily be seen how wuch more economical it is to con- sume Gas instead of Oil, when its price is only $2.63 per 1000 feet as now charged bere when consumed, more especially through Bray’s Burners.

Messrs. Goodwin & Co., of Philadelphia, the well-known manufacturers of Scientific in- struments for testing the illuminating power of Coal Gas, etc., say in their Circular to Gag Companies : “In presenting the Bray’s Stand- ard Patent Slit Union Burners and Lanterns, for which we are the sole Agents in. the United States, to the attention of the public, we are convinced that we are filling a want long felt.’’ They furtber add; ** The yield of light frota these Burners is 12 to 20 per cent. greater per cubic foot of Gas consumed than that from any flat flame Burner hitherto in- troduced, {no 4 cod tf
