NOTES AND COMMENTS.

— Now it is the “ingenions Yankee” who has invented a wireless telephone. What is most of al] wantea in Charlottetown is

a swearless telephone. But this we fear even the “ingenious Yankee” saonot supply.

—Cummenting upon the fact that the Filipinos don’t seem to stay thrashed, the Montreal Gazette remarks that “if the beggars were only Anglo-Saxons this would be a virtue in them.”

—All the publisied reporte of the battle of Omdurman, agreed that the most bril- jant feat of arms of the day was that achieved by Brig.~Gen Macdonald, whose brigade was caught between two divisions ef dervishes, and was only saved from immolation bya rapid change of frent, which enabled it to repulse a cecond attack from the rear after clearing its front. It was implied by more than one correspon-

disaster was only averted by the resource- fulness aud promptitude displayed by Geveral Macdonald. No doubt the latter acquitted himself nobly, fully jostifying the confidence reposed in him, bat in a speech which he delivered the other day in Glasgow he gave a very different account of the whole affair. He declared that it was he who attacked the dervishes, not the dervishes who attacked him ; that the situation had been foreseen by Lord Kitchener, who had provided him with three batieries of artiliery and several Maxim gune, with which he was able annihilate the first attack at long range, and that he was in readiness for the second attack before it developed. The completeness of (ae enemy’s rout was due to the admirable fire disc’pi:ne of the Britieh troops. The aim of Lord Kitch

ener’s strategy, he added, wus to cut off the dervishes from their fortificatiobs.

Bap Accipext ar ALbANY.—A very bad accident occurred at Albany, on Sunday evening, whereby the six year old son of Mr. Abrabam Noonan, postmaster at tha place, lost fourof his fiogers. A gen:le- man had taken bis wheel from the train on Satard-y evening and as it was raining stood it in a sbed io Mr. Noonsn’s yard, intending to leave it there until the roads were fit to drive on. Oa Sanday Mr. Noonan’s two boys, aged respectiveiy s:x andeight years, were lookingat the bicycle, seeing woa kind it was, eic., and one of them picked it upand gave the pedalzaturn. Some way or other the smallest boy got his fingers caug!i t be- tween the chain and the teeth of the hind sprocket wheel. The father bearing the boy’s cries rushed out and was horrified to find two of his *0a0’s fingers lying on the grouo?. The doctor was immedistcly sent for. Thetwo remaiaing fingers were so badly damaged that they had to be ampu- pated.

Ficutine Carenpi_iars.—The orchards ists in Kastern Maive are having lively times these dave in ~»ging war against the army of caterpillars oat seems to have swept down in.a cloud from the unknown, aod is now destroying the fruit trees at a rapid rate. Some of the orchards that a week or ten days ago apreared entirely free from the pestis are ncw covered with the webs, and nests can be eeen on nearly every limb. The farwers who free them one morning go out to look them over the next day only to see another crop larg«r than the one already disposed of. Parties arriving in Baogor from Eddington, Clifton, Dedhem and the eastern tovwns report the conditions asterious. Tie? eay ihat never for many yearskas there been such an awfui mars of living, crawl ing destruction. It seems es if every new~ born Jeaf has its caterpillar, and before its stem is fairly straightened out to receive the strengthening rays of the sun its framework is eaten away.
