The ear attracted considerable atteentron. The parties who accompanied the shipment, which goes to Michigan, had quarters fitted up im the centre of the car, and also carried baled hay for the horses. The animals were purchased on Prince Edward island, which 1s quite famous for its heavy beam horses. ’ , The St. John} Telegraph of the 18th inst., says about twenty horses arrived by the Intercolonial Railway, |; yesterday afternoon, from Prince Edward {fsland. . They wore purchased by a gentleman in Bangor, and were shipped for that point last evening.

Treexixe Wernovr License.—Vhere are now but twenty-three licensed truckmen in this city, and we are informed that over the same number of men truck without license. This being the case, do not the authorities permit a great injustice when they compel one class ef men to pay license and allow others to truck without paving anything to the City far the privilege. Again, a number ef express men in the city carry on a flourish.

ing trade uncer the very noses of the authorities without paying a single cent in the shape of a fee towards the

City revenue. Licensed truckmen justly complain of this; but the authorities have made no attemot to redres® their grievance. The first clause of the by-law respecting truck- mon and truckaye says that ‘‘No drive any track. cart, sled, or carriage for the transportation ef goods, wares and merchan- dize or other things whatseever, within the city, fer hire or wages, unless he shall be

licensed as a truckman, under penalty of | av we see unlicensed | goods i

while truckmen, who pay licences, are stand- ing idle at wharver and Railway Station. As we said before, this is grossly unfair, and the authorites should either prevent expressmen |

Despatches irom Constantinople are to the effect that the Turkish Government, having no confidence that the result of the supplementary conference now in session at Berlin will be faverable to its interest in re pect to the enforcement of the provisions of the Berlin treaty, is quietly but steadily pre paring for war, and that notwithstand- ing the searcity of money, the deplorable stite of the country, and the depletion of her treasury, is making continual additions to the war chest, in suppesed anticipation of war with Greece.
