Tue Princess was delayed at Pictou yesterday on account of the late arrival of the train, there was no mail clerk on board her, the mail was heavy with Charlottetown mstter, and the copsequence was that the letters and papers for Christmas were not ali ready for distribution until late in the night. This ought not so to be. The

Senate

The joint resolution acknowledging the independence of Cuba, introduced into the United States Senate recently, reads as fo - lows :—

Resolved, by the House of Representa- tives of the United States of America, in Congress assembled : That the independ- ence of the Republic of Cuba be, and the same is, hereby acknowledged by the United States of America.

Section 2. That the United States will use its friendly offices with the governme :t of Spain to bring to a close the war betweea Spain and Cuba.

A Washington special to the New York

World says thal, according to high authority, Secretary Olney when he

appears before the Senate commit’ee on foreign relations will give to the com- mittee a piece of information that Senor de Lome, the Spanish Minister, hae un- officially conveyed to him. It is that France, Russie, and Holland have instruc- ted their representatives here that the in- stant the United States takes any official action toward acknowledging either the belligerancy or the independance of Cuba, without previous provocation er an affront by Spain against the United States, they are to inform the Secretary of State that their governments consider this act hostile and unfriendly. England, the despatch says, although the largest proprietor in the Antilles after Spain, does not seem to be considered in this alleged international! agreement. It is apparently well under- stood that England will not join issue against the United States. eee

NICARAGUA WANTS TO FIGHT.

Making Preparations to Attack Columbia— Cause of the Trouble.

The Norwegian steamship Jarl which

arrived at Mobile a tew days ago from Bluefield?, Nicaragua, brings news of

active preparations being made in Nicara- gua looking to war with Columbia. There pave been no open hostilities, but the Nicaraguan government has a patrol boat going up and down the Rama river, con- scripting everybody who'can be used as soldier. Laborers on plantations are be- ing taken and men thus conscripted are being taken to Rama ani the Bluff, where they are put in g«risons, It is said the cause of preparations for war is @ dispute between Colambia and Nicaragua as tothe ownership of the great and little Corn Islands about 40 miles from Nicaragua end one, 60 miles from Rama. The fort at Bluefields bluff bas been garrisoned in expectation of a visit from meno of-war 0! the Columbia navy. Itis reported that there is no armament on the fort except a few old fashioned mortars. Officers of the Jari state that Nicaragua is not in a position to cope with Columbia in open warfare, as one of the Columbia men of war would have no trouble in destroying Rama and Bluefields.

Only Three Days Now

until Christmas, and we propose to make these four days the most interesting in the annals of the

Toy and Fancy Goods Trade of this City.

Our stock is so immense that there is no danger of a famine, and the variety so great that we can suit all tastes ; while the range is from goods worth ten to fifteen dollars each to others costing tem, cents per dozen, and yet each and-all suitable for Xmas presents.

Santa Claus Headquarters is for the Rich and the Poor,

and the harder the times the larger the trade, because more can be had for the money here than anywhere else. People from almost every household in the city will visit this store during these three days, hundreds, — possibly thousands every day.

Let Them Come!

Our store is large (three stores in one), we have twenty-two attentive clerks, and the store is open until after 9 o'clock every night. Goods are delivered to all parts of the city promptly.

Shall we mention prices? We have cut prices of many lines of Fancy Goods in half. We are taking 10 per cent. discount from most

other lines, and the prices were low before. ‘ours for a Merry Christmas,
