The Premier's motto is, apparently, ° Dy and his sup

porters in King’s will cheerfully acquiesce in the appointment of the honorable mem- ber for Summerside, and unite in congratu- lating him upon the honor which he has had bestowed upon him.

The Government is, in our opinion, very fairly representative of the intelligence and ability of the Province. Of course, it goes without saying that there are ia the Liberal- Conservative Party many men who are as capable of managing the public affsirs of the Province as those who compose the administration of which the Hon. Neil Me- Leod is the head. There are, no doubt, other men whom the Premier would like to call to his aid. But the Executive Council, as it is now made up, is well balanced, and ought, we think, toc smmand the confidence and support of the Province at large.

It is pleasing to learn that the mem bers of the Government who hold office a: giv- ing satisfaction. We hear good reports of the Commissioner of Public Works, —who has lately been visiting some parts of the country and showing what he knows about bridges, to the confusion of careless con- tractors and inspectors. Persons who seem to think it no harm to impose upon the Government, and who counted upon the bon homie of the new CS mmissioner, will probably find that the wrong man has been placed at the head of the Public Works Department; but the People will recognize in the Commissioner who acts in accord with the priuciples of justice, who will not permit the country to be che ated,

the right man for the position. — Pt Ooe—

Notes and Comments.

~ An Ortawa despatch of the 19th inst. says : Some weeks ago the People’s Bank of Halifax petitioned the government to re- coup them the money alleged to have been lost owing to the delay by Chief Justice MacDonald in delivering judgment in a4 Lockeport case. It was alleged that while delivery was pending the defendants trans- ferred their property to other parties, thus causing loss to the bauk. The council has just decided that the government ig not liable.

4 great impulse has lateiy been given to the construction of tunnels. The latest report is that of a Scotch paper, Which says that the directors of the Caledonia Railway Company have at present in their posses- a scheme designed for the purpose of accel- erating their traffic from England to the North, the principsl feature of which is a tunnel under the Firth of Forth. When shail we hear that orders have been taken for the construction of the New Brunswick and P. E. Island Railway Tunnel.

— The following is the statement of re- venue and expenditure on account of the consulidated fund of the Dominion up to the end of October :—

The revenue for the four months last year was $13,502,124, and the expenditure $8,- 280,637. The net debt of the Dominion on October 31 was $233,855,202, a decrease of $334,124 in the month. At the same date twelve months ago the debt stood at $234,- 472,090. The expenditure on capital ac- count for the four months ending October 3L was $1,498,806, as compared with $1,- 861,718 for the same period last year.

Mr. Balfouraddressed another overflowing meeting on the 19th inst., at which he said he had been assailed with a degree and kind of calumnyunexampled in English his- tory, in any political controversy not re- cently connected with Ireland, but he never shrunk from meeting those calumnies face to face. He always acted, he said, with the simple-minded view of benefiting not only the empire, but the population before which he is habitually held up as an

stottice of common contempt aud execra- on.

KEROSENE OIL IN A MANURE

ATEALING CASE— FISH

REMANDED FOR THE BUTTER HEAP.

ee ced

Fred. Bevan was this morning arraigned betore R. R. Fitzgerald, J. P., on @ charge of stesling a cask of kerosene oil from the | premises of W. P. Colwill on ot about the lat November, inst. Mr. James H, Good appeared for the prisoner.

W. P. Colwill, the complaintant, was the first witness examined. He said iu sub- stance that early in October last fhe pur- chased tivecasks of kerosene oil from Carvell Bros , which he had placed iu his yard, and that he missed one of these casks on the Ist November. As he had been sick

for about two weeks before, he, however, could not tell exactly when it had been stolen. Oa Wednesday, he and ctlicer

Bradley made a search of Bevan’s preimises and found a cask of kerosene oil in his front shop which he believed was the cask stolen from his yard. The cask bad been tapped and a small quanity « f oil taken from it. It was ared cask ; the figures on the head corresponded with those on the other casks purchased at Carvell’s, and which were still in bis (Colwill’s) possession. he figures on the end of the cask had been painted over by some oue.

Nelson Ratteabury, a clerk at Carvell Bros., testified to the selling of the five gisks of oil to Me. Colwill on the 4 h Oct. last, and to the marks thereon, which were identical with those on the remaining casks he sold Mr. Colwill. He had no doubt whatever but that the cask found on Bevan’s premises, and which he had examined in the police station, was one of the five he had suld Colwill

At the conclusion of Mr. MRattenbury’s evidence, the prisoner was remanded unt.l Mond, y.

Michael Hughes, a man employed about St. Dunstan's College, was examined as to the theft of a tub of butter from that in- stitution. All he knew about the batter was that it had been left at the college and had been stolamtherefrom. This case will also come up for hearing on Monday.

Yesterday afterncon Bradley made an- other search of Bevan’s premises, and found a barrel, partly filled with herring, secreted in a manure heap. Alexander Horne & Co, report that a barrel of herring was stolen from their premises some time ago,

This afternoon officers Bradley and Camp- bell made anether search of Bevau's premises. Jn the woods, about ten chains from his house, they found that portion of a whiskey still known as a worm. The worm, which is of copper, was hidden under a thick clump of bushes, and officer Camp- bell bad to crawl in for it upen his hands and knees. Tie officers confiscated the worm and took an old man named John A. McCallum in charge, they having a warrant fur his arrest as a witness against Bevan.

McCallum admitted to the officers that he had taken the worm from Bevan’s house yesterday and concealed it in the bushes

where it was fouud.

Ireland. DILLON AND O'BRIEN.

When the news of the sentences imposed upon Dillon and O’Brien by the magis- trates at Clonmel was conveyed to these gentlemen, Brien said: ‘It makes no difference to us. We shall do our duty here and then go back about the time the spring session of parliament is called to- gether, probably in Febreary.”

THE FOOD SITUATION.

Balfour, in a speech at Grimsby lately, declared his tour in Ireland had no political object, but was made purely in quest of in- formation, He found the people so near the brink of want that the serious failure of the potato crop might make imperiai assistance necessary. He was firmly con- vinced something more was required than money and relief works. It is a necessary change in the habits of the people, to make better farmers and fishermen of them. Such change he believed possible, but it would necessarily be slow.

Colonel Turner, who has just returned from a visit to the district ot Skibbereen, which Mr. Balfonr was prevented by illness from visiting on his recent topr, gives a very gloomy report of the condition of the district. The inhabitants, he said, are for the most part in a state of abject poverty, especially in Schull, where the greatest destitution prevails.

The board rooms of the Schull Union, County Cork, were besieged on the 18th inst. by a great crowd of small farmers and laborers, who came to implore the guar- dians for either food or employment. The applicants numbered fully 1,004.

PARNELL'S POSITION,

T. P. Gill, M. P., steted on the 19th that the Irish delegates in the United

anemia cermin tL OO —

States had cabled their colleagues in Ire- land to the fullowing effect: ‘* We stand firmly by the leadership of the man who: has brought the Irish people through un- paralled difficulties and dangers, from servitude and despair to the very threshold of emancipation with a courage and success unequalled in Irish history, and we do so not only out of gratitude for these un- paralleled services in the rast, but in the profound conviction that Parnell’s states- mensuip and matchless qualities as a leader are essential to the safety of the Irish cause.”

O'Brien and the other members of par- liament, convicted on the 19th, have sent telegrams to Parnell expressing their fullest devotion to him. O'Brien_also sent the following to Parnell: ** In view of my six months sentence, my duty to my electors and colleagues, and to you, is to resign so that Monaghan may be represented during the coming session of parliament.”

A London special to the New York Herald sigued by ** A Member of Parlia- ment” says: ‘* Many strong believers in Parnell clung to the hope to the very last that he would come forward and deny O'Shea’s charges. But :f the woman in such a case refuses to make any contradic- tion, what can the man do but follow suit?

“The truth is that Mrs, O'Shea has made up her mind that marriage shall fol- low the divorce suit after the usual inter- val. That being so, Me. Parnell could not venture into court to deny anything. But his complete surrender has been a terrible | shock to the stricter sect of the Gladstonian

‘party, especially to the venerable leader, who has no toleration for offences of this

description. circumstances will be

give up, but strong for him,

“The invasion of O'Shea’s home under the disguise of friendship, che son's pro- tests, the long course of deception, two children born after the intimacy, the pro- tests of innocence, the masquerade in the | names of Smith, Fox, and Preston, every circumstance is calculated to injure & man occupying a foremost position.

*\No political leader in this country has ever survived such an exposure. In the case of Lord Melbourne and Mrs. Norton, both parties asserted their mnocence, and a jury found a verdicé in their favor, It will be just as imposs:Lie in the long run for Parnell to lead his party in parliament as it was for Sir Charles Dike to pursue his public career ;

**Attention, therefore, is centred upon the question, whe will succeed Parnell ? So far as f can judge, there is « strong teeling in favor of Dillon, a man of blame- less character, of great parliamentary skill, a brilliant speaker, 5 devoted and zealous friend of Ireland, William O'Brien is also mentioned. The Irish party generally will for a time stoutly deny that any change is pending, but it mustcome. Mr. Gladstone will not go on with an ally stained with the dirt of the divorce court. Dillon would bring renewed energy into the Irish cam- paigu, and arouse fresh enthusiasm, The tinger of destiny puints to him asa the com- ing man.”

Wm O'Brien, M. P., was in Boston for a short whilé, but shortasit was he was ferreted out by a newspaper man and inter- viewed on the result of the O'Shea divorce suit which places Mr. Parnell in a com- promising position. ‘* I decline,” said Mr O'Brien **to take any notice of hostile news sharper rumors about Mr Parnell. For the past ten years the very same news- papers have made all sorts of villainous attempts to assassinate Mr. Parneil’s char- acter, vot in the least from any motive of public morality, but on account of his un- rivaled leadership. Kaowing nothing whatever of the O’shea case, «Xcept from O’Shea’s evidence aud that of his employes 1 can give no opinion upon the subject at the present moment. All I do kuow is that O'Shea is a loathsome creature capable of anything. He was employed by the Times newspaper to swear that the forged letters were Mr. Parneil’s and it was only when perjury in that matter,failed him that he seemeu tu have fallen back on this story of his own dishonor. The Irish party and the Irish people may be trusted tu sife guard the interests of the Irish cause with- out the Jeast regard to the cumor set aflvat by moralizers lke Pigott’s employes.”

Mr. Eugeuve Kelly said at New York that if the charge against Parnell was proven Irishmen woulda want no more tu do with him asa leader. Of cvurse he cou'd vote on a question, but he would never be looked upon as a fit mau to intro- | duce any measure looking tou the relief ef Ireland. ‘*Suli,” continued Mr. Kelly, ‘“*we must be generous and wait befure coming to a conclusion detrimental to Mr. Parneil. Scull, as I say, if the charges are proven against him, not ouly wiil tie clergy vf America cease tu have anything more to do with him, but the laity will act likewise. To think that a mau like Parnell, whom we have always lovked upon as a pure man with his ability, his ancestry and his past achievmeuts, should mix himself insuch a scandal! It must remove him from that high pedestal upon which the Irish people have placed him.”

Tae London Dai/y News says: ‘The! unionists appear to hope that the discredit that has deservedly tailen on Parnell will cling to the Irish party and the Irish cause Bat political principles and partics are in- dependent of accidents to individual leader- ship. ven should the present leader step aside, there are others who will take his place. ‘Ihe anticapation of damage to the home rule cause wiil be disappointed.”

The London Standard says: ‘* Mr. Parnell seems to have been actuated by no desire to save the ledy’s reputation. Ali sorts of shabby pitiful devices were adopted to avoid detection by the husband. The whole story is low, despicable and disgraceful, with no redeeming feature, to justify the indul- gence which has sometimes been extended
