oats,

Oats are at present quiet in the English market, They bring nineteen shillings per quarter of 304 pounds for the continent, and seventeen shillings and sixpenee for

| ports in Great Britain. In New York and | Boston the market for oats is also quiet, and prices have very little change. They range from 36 to 44 cents, as to quality. ‘In Halifax and St. John the market is dull. | The price in Halifax is 40 to 41 cents,and in St. John, 41 to 42 cents. In Charlottetown

they sell at 32 cents. POTATOES '

| The outlook for a potato market in the | United States is not good. Markets in Boston and New York ure reported quiet. Fifty-three cents per bushel is the highest price obtained for the best quality of pota- toes in Boston. Northern Rose are there quoted at from 45 to 50 cents, Eastern at 50 to 53, and Eastern Prolifics at 50 to 55. Here in Charlottetown, potatoes sell at from 16 to 18 cents per bushel. Several vessels are loading at outports for the Pro- vincial and United States market. EGGS.

We are pleased to see there is an im- provement in quality of eggs sent from the Island to Boston, and that our eggs are bringing almost as high a price as the best sold in that market. Circulars of Oct. 20, quote the best stock :-—Eastern—fresh at 28 cents, while P. E. Island is quoted at

27 cents. This is a good position for P. E. Island eggs to hold, but we thingy with a littke more care it can be bettered, ana P.

E. Island stock, eggs, butter, potatoes, ete., can be placed on a par, as regards price, with the very best in the Boston market.

PORK.

The Montreal Gazette says a limited volume of business transpires in the hog products, sales of pork being mainly of jobbing lots for city and country account at $14.75 for Western Mess. Pork in Charlottetown sells at from 5 to 5} cents. The market is dull.

FISH.

The receipts of Mackerel at Boston for the week ending Oct.20th, have been 5,932 bris, including 3,214 bris from domestic and 2,718 brisfrom foreign ports. ‘Trade has not been very active, and on the lower grades of Ma:kerel prices are easier, but choice are held forth at previous rates. Provincial Mackerel ara pretty well sold up, and the range of prices is about the same. E. T’. Russell & Co., Boston, quote Island No. Lat $15 to $16; No. 2 at $12 to $13; and No. 3 at $10 to $11 per barrel. Unculled lots sold at $12.50 to $13 per barrel. Nova Scotia range from $9.50 to $10 per barrel, as to quality. Shore mackerel have dropped a little on 4's, and we quote large lots as follows:—Extras $20 to $22; No. 1, $18 to $19; No. 2, $13 to $14; No. 3, $9 to $9.50, and No, 4, $5 50 to $6 per barrel. Bays are selling at $13.50 and $14, out of pickle. The shore fleet havej been operating in the bay, but did not catch many mackerel

the week, owing to strong winds. The

1881. rices continue low on all kinds except eorges, which are virtually out of market.

Sales of pickled cured Bank at $3.874 and

$4 for large, and $3 for medium; dry Bauk

at $4 to $4.25 for large, and $3 to $3.:25 for medium; pickle cured are $5.50 per quintal.

BUTTER.

As yet there is ne provincial market

open for butter. It selle in the city at

from 18 to 2) cents.

HERRING.

Herring are in demand in the city at $5.50 to $6.50 per barrel, but large arrivals are expected.

CANNED GOODS. The Montreal Guzette says: The Cana- dian lobster canneries have all sold up their product pretty close, and Boston dealers have now turned their attention to this market, enquiries having been received from them for round lots. Stocks here, however, are very light and are quoted firm at $5.50 to $5.80 per case, according to quality, and brand. London Grocers’ Gazette of October 6th says:—‘‘Stocks in first hands have almost entirely disappeared, and the con- sumptive demand has been so brisk that dealers have very little left to offer; under these circumstances holders have advanced their prices, and we now quote tall tins from 233 6d to 25s per case, and flat tins from 29: to 3ls per case. Mackerel are quoted here at $5.50 to $4.60 per case. ointnagittiaarditnlteliach bon

A short time ago a ycung lady residing in a village near Ottawa went to a photo- grapher to have her likenesa taken. When the photograph was completed she refused to pay for it, alleging that it was not a cor- rect likeness of her. The photographer, out of revenge, added a moustache and a cigar to the picture, and placed it on exhi- bition in his window. The young lady thereupon entered an action for $1,000 damages, but the matter wes compromised | by the photographer paying her a smaller sum.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.

To James R. Mclean, Esg., Sowris.

S1r,—I fear you have grown impatient of @ reply to your letter, which appeared in the Patriot of Wednesday last, but [ may be permitted to say, by way of apology, that matters of greater importance have fever since enyrossed my attention. Now, however, | shall endeavor to give your letter fall consideration. You will per- ceive that, for convenience sake, I take the liberty of addressing myself directly to you. Your letter, Sir, opens with a mis-state- ment, and closes with something less ex- cusable in a gentleman of your pretensions. You state that I, in a former letter, accused another gentleman and yourself of having produced a certain communication for the Patriot, while, what I really did suy in that letter was, in substance, that rumor had informed me to that effect. I cannot see how my words could have escaped your observation. I notice, however, that you do not deny having written that letter in question. You simply say that you did not “‘assist” et:., ‘‘ either in writing or re- vising” it, leiving the inference to be drawn that either one of you might have written it without the assistance of the other, Such evasive quibbling, Sir, is to wen I assure you, it matters very

to me now, which of you wrote it, It was written, and badly written tuo, and the writer may live to regret having ever conceived the idea of writing it.

You evidentiy wish to convey the idea that a ‘“‘feud” exists between Mr. Mc- Eachern and m,self. If such is the case, I confess, lam altogether ignorant of it. I am persuaded that that gentleman is no particular friend of mine, but I apprehend no serious consequences. You may, there- fore, compose your mind on the ‘‘fend” question. The militia will not be called out,

You oppear a trifle hurt for being named in my last letter, and demand in rather imperious tones my authority for having used your name in such a manner. I may tell you that I have had no positive in- structions from any person to use your name in print. I took the liberty upon myself, and I suppose this correspondence is the penalty. But it strikes me that 1 have met with your name in print before. In fact, I believe there are few men who have received more newspeper corrections and have profited less by them than y ourse’f. No person laments more sincerely than I do, the evil consequences of an ecrimonious discussion of this nature, but I have the consolation that Iam not the aggressor. The Souris correspondent of the Patriot has for years been throwing out small, mean insinuations about my private charac- ter, and if this correspondence will unearth the cowardly booby, my chief object in writing will have been attained.

The concluding paragraph ot your letter is scarcely worthy of notice, and yet, I have no doubt, sir, that you regard it as the For my part, i confess, I do not quite understand it. If

total quantity landed at all the ports/you find it necessary to obscure your mean+ by fleet is 7,717 bbls. against 3,854 bbls. jing, in order to preserve the elegance of same week in 1882, and 10,383 bbls. injyour diction, I would suggest the use of Codfish are in liberal supply, and}foot notes. I

notice, however, that you lay no claim just now to ** high literary attainments, like

some gentlemen of moderate education whom you know,” and judging from your letter, Sir, I should say your modesty in this respect does you no serious injustice. You must have had more faith in your literary attainments when you were pleased to become a member of the Board of Education of this Province.

I shall now take ny leave of you for ‘the present. Ishall not be surprised if you impose upon me a task similar to this for next week. But one more word at parting. When you next volunteer to the public any cheap, little insinuations about my private character, if you cannot use the language of a gentleman or a scholar, do, at lenst, show some little respect for the delicacy of your readers.

I am, Sir,

Yours, ete., Micuart J. Foury.

Cardigan Bridge Notes.

Shipping has been brisk for the iast ten ays, some fourteen vessels having been loaded with oats, potatoes, and turnips. There are seven vessels now loading. Prices — onts, 34 cents; potatoes, 18 cents; turnips, 6 cents.

On Saturday night two sailors, who had been up throvgh the village, on their return towards their vessel mistook Captain McDonald’s wharf for the bridge and walked over the end of the wharf, and one of them was with great difficulty saved from a watery grave. He was unconscious for a considerable time after having been taken trom tke water, but was finally brought to and on Monday was all right again.

Mr. Watson, section foreman on No. 1 section of railway, was helping to unload a car of posts on Monday and suddenly dropped dead. The bedy wastaken by train to Georgetown, and a ccroner’s in- quest was held at the station house there hy Dr. Kaye, and a verdict of Died by the Visitation of God was returned by the jury. Mr. Watson had been some years on the section from Georgetown to Car- digan, was considered a good foreman, and much sympathy is felt for his family.

Mr. James Mustard, ar., of Pisquid Road, Lot 52, died on Friday last, and was buried ou Monday. He had been ailing for seme months but his death waa un- expected. ‘The funeral was atteuded by a large number of his friends and neighbors althongh the day was very disagreeable.
