Bruvswick aud P.E. Island Railway we know nothing. If Senator Wood refused tocome to reasonabl: terms in the matter, if he were impracticable in
they may be justified in theiraction. We
should like to see the correspondence in this regard. The fact remains, that the railway is the only means by which close connections with thetrain service of the mainland can be obtained with any degree of certainty. Even the train, o-casionally, when the maile arrive late at Tormentine, could not possibly arrive in time to meet the western express at Sackville. Horses and sleds loaded with the mails never can do thiw,except when the crossing is un- usually early and the roads unusually good. When the roads become bad, as they must, ere long, it is more than likely that there will be misces at Tormentine as well as at Sackville,—unless the railway is again resorted to,
A prudent foresight wil] therefore impel the Government to renew their uegotia- tions with Senator Wood in order that there may be no delays when the roads be- come bad in the spring, and when the im- portance of quick despatch is greater than itienow. It ie not at all likely that Senator Wood, will be unreazonable in his
demands in the face of the odium which ue andhis railway are certain to incur in this Province, and also the ioss he must sustain, if Le shouli force the Govern-
ment tomake a permanent arrangement with sledge drivers. Oo the other hand,

M. Flammarion, the distip —_ French astronomer, points out that § new planet is, with the exception of | moon, the nearest to the earth.
