Political Meeting at Red Point.

Pursuant to notice a large and influen- tial meeting of the electors of Townships No. 46 and 47, was held in the Szhool Room. at Red Point, on the 11th Jan., for the purpose of inquiring into the local wants of the District, the principal of which was the advocacy of the construc- tion af a Wharf and Breakwater at Red Point Cove. Owing to the almost impas- sible state of the roads and the lateness of the notification, the representatives of the dietriet— Messrs. McDonald and Underhay, were not in attendance.

The meeting was organized by appoint-

} ing Mr. John McLellan, Chairman, and

the undersigned Secretary.

Mr. Isaac Stewart, being the first to ad- Gress the meeting, said he considered the interests of this district had been very mich overlooked in the past, thought the Representatives rather negligent in their duties. He referred to a petition which was got up last winter in connection with a wharfat Red Point Cove and forwarded to Mr. Underhay in due time, and. which he believed wes never presented to the Government. He thovght we were justly enti'led to a wharf and Breakwater at Red Point.

Mr. A. W. Bruce considered this dis-

trict did net receive the justice to which it , was entitl d, our reads and bridges were ‘almost impossible, the money which was

fur Lined Cioaks, Sealettes and Colored Dress Goods, |

justly due this district, was expended in other districts, where it was not so much required. He thought our Representatives were derelict in their duties, otherwise we would receive fairplay. He considered last year’s petition was never presented to the Government, that it was rejected by a committee of the House. He thought the

be better attended to. Was satisfied that if petitions were got up and properly repre- sented there would be no difficulty in ob- taining grants for the construction of the Wharf and Breakwater already referred to.

Mr. Wm. McLean stro gly upbraided th: Representatives of the distoct, He sng- gested that if they would dono betfer m the future than in the past, they should receive the ‘‘ cold shoulder.” He did not think the survey of Red Point Cove, by Mr. Campbell, Government Engineer, and Mr. Underhay, last summer, was genuine, but thouvhtit was a mere sham He was very much in favor of a Wharf and Break- water, considered it a just d«mand, and was confident it would be obtained.

Mr. Alex. Robertson said that party feelings and side issues should be thrown aside when matters of interest to ihe dis- trict were Giscussed He tought the district did not get an equal share of the public money ; but did not think it fair to censure the representatives till they had a chance to give an account ef their stewordships. Hesaw no just cause why we should not obtain grants for a wharf and breakwater at Red Point, as he con- sidere i they could be erected at a com- paratively moderate cost, on account of natural advantages of the contemplated site

Mr. A. Mooney did not think it fair to condemn the representatives, as they were abseut and consequently could not answer for themselves ; thought they should get time to explain matters. He spoke of the dangerous condition of some of our bridges, which were without railing and entirely unsafe. He felt contident that the im- provements looked for at Red Point would be granted,

M:. M. Mooney considered it very cew- ardly ani unmanly on the part of the pre- vious speakers to take advantage of the absence of our represeutatives In such a manner, and to endeavor to censure their action with regard to the district. Le con- tended that they had done their duty faithfully, and had expended a fair share of money in the district during the past year. lie had been speaking to the Gov- ernment Engineer and Mr. Underhay about the wharf at Red Point, and they as- sured him there was no difficulty in having said work corstructed. He also felt con fident tht the petition referred to was Guly pres.nted to the Government by Mr. Underhay, and that the survey last summer was genniue,

Mr F. S. Robertson minutely described the cisadvantages under which the agricul- turaland fishing population of the com- muniy la‘ ored, on account of having no shipping port or harbor of refuge nearer than Souris. He considered a wharf and breakwater would be a great benefit not only to thie immediate vicinity, but to the He forwarded last winter's petition to Mr. Underhay, and re- ceive’ an answer that it wasin due time, He had no conidence in last summer’s survey— thought it was a matter of form. © He wou d not criticize the actions of the Repre- sentatives till he heard their explana- tion.

Mr. A J. Campbell said it was beth un air and unreasonable to throw all the blame on the shoulders of our representa- tives for not having the petition referred to laid before the House. He felt sue that this matter would be satisfactorily explained in due time. He thought the representatives did their best to advance the interest of the district. He considered the construction of a Wharf and Breakwater at Red Point would be a great advantage

, to the public generally.

Afrer various other remarks by the differ- ent speakers, the following motions were unanimously adopted ;—

Mived by T. S. Robertson, seconded by Mr. McLean, That petitions be drawn up and pres. nted to the Loeal aud Dominion Governmenis praying for sums of money to be granted sufficient to erect a Wharf aud Beeskwater at Red Point Cove.

Moved by Isaae Stewart, seconded by A. W. Bruce, that the following committee be upneinted to draw up said petitions ; Messrs. Alex. Robertson, A. J. McPhee, T. 8 Roberison and Oliver Stewart.

Canadian Cattis Quarantine. The following information is taken from the recent report relating to the cattle quarantine established by the Deminion Government at Levis, Que- bee :—Some fifty men are constantly engaged on the works. and the expen diture of the Government upon them during the summer amounted to seme 15,000 dels, The extent ef ground now enclosed as the quarantine station is nealy fifty acres. These figures serve to vive some idea ef the great interest manifested in thisall-important matter by the Hon. J. H. Pope, the Deminion Minister of Agriculture, and himself a very large importer oi choice cattle. Not a single precaution bas been everleoked by the Minister, and those serving under him, to prevent the intreduction ef cattle disease into

Canada. One of the most notice- able features in the present arrangement of the quaran-

tine is the complete isolation afforded tothe different lots ofcattte confined within its several yards. The stables are exceedinely large, warm, and eom- fortable struetures, each one of which is erected in the very middie of @ spacious yard, two er three acres in extent,thus leaving ample espace for

selves, Each yard is complete; iselated, and shut in by closely-boarded fences, 6 feet bigh, amply sufficient to to prevent any contact between the anima's. During the present year but twe cattle have been lost out of £00, and three or four sheep out of 1,400 or 1,500,

Dark Swine Preferred.

Seme forty odd years ago, I first be- gap to execute erders given me by the southern planters, They required, with rare excep'iens, white swine. I! told them (says A. B. Alleo in New York Tribune), the darkscoloured would prove the most hardy and thrifty for itheir hot climate, the same as negroes over white men. Butl could at first persuade only a few toalept my epm- ion and take Berkshire, Essex or Neapolitan, in preference to Suffolk Prince Albert, Yorkshire, Irish Grazier, and Chester County—these last five being*the popular white pigs of thar day. But my ‘southern friends soon found that all of these five were subject te scurf, mange, and other disagreeable cutaneous disezses, which the blank or dark-spetted pigs eseaped entirely, and always were a healthy, clean, glossy, hide. The planters then began te change their orders, and in course of a few years would scareely accept white pigs from the North, of even the best breeds, asa gift. In most other parts ef the United Statesa deep pre- judice prevailed against black and dirk-spotted swine, and few weuld breed them. Pork packers were ess pecially opposed to them, _ be- cause, they said the skin was dark, and yet this would generally serape to white when they came to dress it However, time went on, and as breed- ers gradually found out nerth, east» and west, the same objections to white swine which had taken place at the south, they began rapidly to change the colour ef their steck, and now few white hogs are fovnd in Chiccago or other great markets in the west, the general run being on the Berkshire, the Poland-China, and Es-ex. Indeed, so much more fayourably are dark, coloured swine now considered there, that they have heen gradually breed- ing eut the white spots of the first two sorts above, and now they are almost entirely black, or very dark brown, like the Essex and Neapolitan. All these swine are very thrifty and msture early, The Berkshire and Poland. China are especially hardy—can endure any extreme of climate,from the coldest te the hottest. The Berkshire is fa- mous fer its larger propertier of tender lean, juicy meat, andis consequent'y greatly preferred for +m ked hems, shoulders, and baeon. ‘The three other sorts cut up choice, ear, fat pork, which is most desirabe te ealt and barrel,
