LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
—~@—
Chronic Grumbiers. Srm,—-A day or two ago I happened to meet a successful shipmaster of Summer- side on Water Street, in this city, and almost the first thing he said to me after the usual remarks concerning the weather probabilities, was “‘Do you know that there is scarcely any patriotism left in Charlotte- town!” | asked him in what respect. His reply was, ‘‘You never hear a Summerside man run down his town,” but here, when a stranger asks how business is, the reply invariatly is ‘‘Oh, there is nothing doing, everything is going to the dogs.” I was fotced to confess that it was only too true.
People get into a bad habit of complain- ing of “hard times’ when in reality, busi- ness with them is as prosperous, if not more so than it always was. They are chronic grumblers froma bad habit con- tracted. One individual sets the ball arolling by saying ‘‘Charlottetown is going down; another takes up the refrain,and so the bad habit spreads. I teli you it is more contagious than the Smallpox. Men of Charlottetown don't you doit. Stick up for your town even if we have poor side- walks and no waterworks. I am, of course, aware that we have some among us who find it difficult to make both ends meet ; but they are not, as a rule, the class who forever go about complaining about “hard times.”
Wage earners who know nothing of hard times, ane whose wages are just the saime as last year also get inoculated with the same disease, and talk of how bad things are this year. In a great many cases it is no more n-r less ‘han a habit,and a bad one at that. These same young men will spend their dollars in a bar room, and think nothing of the money so spent, but they will talk of the business stagnation and the scarcity of money, all the same.
Don’t you think, Mr. Editor, that con- tentment contributes very naturally to suc- cess, and discontent the reverse.
Hoping the evil habit referred to will be discontinued,
I am yours, JIM.
Judge Palmer Gets Married.
St. John, N. B.. abounds in social and business sensations these days. The at- tempt of the local papers to suppress the news has been ridiculously unsuccessful. Things done in a corner are now proclaimed from the hovse tops. A social event which has been much talked of for some time past took place in the Centenary Church on Tuesday morning, when Judge Palmer, Equity and Supreme Court Judge, was married to Minnie, daughter of Gilbert Bent. The ceremony took place at 8 o'clock. Both bride and groom were un- attended, and the number of guests were small. Rev. Mr. Brewer was the officiating clergyman. Mr. and Mrs. Palmer left by the next train for the west ona month’s tour. The Affair is causing quite a talk around town, the groom being over sixty years of age and double the age of his wife.

Monarchy in France
A document written by Comte de Paris in Scotland in September last and address- ed to his partizans, has been made public. He denounces alliances between the right and extreme left for the simple purpose of hampering the Government. He- says : “The monarchy is the Government in reserve. The Conservatives ought not to put themselves out of court by refusing to
accept the republic as a working machine until the way is_ pre- pared, not by violent means, for the monarchy. He urges’ them
tu adopt a programme in favor of the re- duction of new public posts and treasury burdens, the maintenance of five years military service. appointment of a non- political general to command the army, the stopping of religious persecutions and the reinstatement of magistrates who will loy- ally support the republic. In conclusion he says: ‘‘ By accepting this programme you will inspire France with the faith that she should have in us that our efforts will be useful to her.” —— ah + <P
“Shot by Mistake.
Mr. J. C. Hill, a prominent re- sident of Edgewood, a wealthy suburb of Pittsburg, Pa., mistook his daughter for a burglar « few nights ago, and shot her through the neck, inflicting, it is feared, a fatal wound. Mr. Hill made collections of about $5,000, which he took to his home to keep over night. His daughter, who had a bad toothache, arose early in the morning, and went down to the library to warm her- self by the fire. Her father hearing the noise thought burglars were in the house, and taking his revolver followed her down stairs. When he reached the door of the library he fired, the ball striking his daugh- terin the back of the neck and passing through to the front. The young lady is in a critical condition, and her father 1s

What True Merit Will Do.
The unprecedented sale of Boschee’s German Syrup within a few years has astonished the world. It is without doubt the safest and best remedy ever discovered for the speedy and effectual cure of Coughs, Colds and the severest Lung troubles. It acts on an entire ly different principle from the usual preserip- tions given by physicians, as it does not’ dry up a Cough and leave the disease still in the system, but on the contrary removes the cause of the trouble, heals the parts affected, and leaves them in a purely healthy condition. A bottle kept in the house for use when these diseases make their appearance, will save doc- tor’s bills and along spell of serious iilness, A trial will convince you of these facts. 1t is

Secession Not Wanted. PROVINCIAL-SECRETARY FERGUSON SCOUTS THR IDEA OF PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND LEAVING THE COONFEDERATION,.
An Ottawa correspondent telegraphs the Montreal Gazett: Hon. Mr. Ferguson, Pro- vincial Secretary of Prince Edward Island, who is now in this city, in company with Premier Sullivan, on business with the Gov- ernment, in an interview here this evening, pronounced as ridiculous and altovether de- void of foundation the statements published in the New York press and purporting to be de- spatches from Ottawa to the effect that Prince Edward Island and New Brunswick had threatened the Dominion Government that they would fall into line with Nova Scotia in the secession movement if their claims for the fulfilment of the terms upon which they entered Confederation were not satisfied. He laughed at the idea of Premier Sullivan and himself having come here to ‘‘ellect a reconciliation * as stated. Their visit to Ottawa was, -he said, in connection with several matters ‘of interest to the island, which he did not care to make public at present. Of course the subject of the ful- filment of the terms upon which Prince E4- word Island entered the Confederation would not be ignored. This, as was well known, had tor long been a burning question on the Island, but now seemed not far from a satisfactory settlement. Certainly no threat of secession would be made. It would be very childish to threaten what they did not mean ; and ag for secession, such a thing was not even thought of by the Islanders. Their only grievance was
the want of continuous communication with the mainland, which they were now satisfied they had a good prospec- of getting, as the Dominion Govern- ment were giving the matter their serious attention. The Islanders believed
they had a goed case and sought to win it by caim and fair reasoning,the force of which the Federal authorities seemed fully to appreciate, and they seemed also to be desirous to do fell justice to the Province, and the people of the Island had full contidence in the justice of the Dominion Government. Hon. Mr. Ferguson is a warm advocate of the scheme for tunnel- ing between the Island and the Mainland, thus securing railway communication and put- tingan end to the present trouble. This scheme has been pronounced feasible by Mr. Walter Shanly, C. £., and other high author- ities. The tunnel would require to be about seven miles in length, and its entire cost is estimated at five million dollars, The greatest depth of the channel is but eighty tect. Asforthe much talked of secession movement, Mr. Ferguson says it is well known that in Nova Sootia, which alone has given it any endorsation, it is merely a piece of bluff. He knew there was no sympathy with it in P. E. Island, and the public utteraiuces of
Premier Blair, of New Brunswick, proved that his Government were altogether opposed to it, and he believed the people
whom they represented were likewise loyal to the Confederation.
— oe A Check to Coercion.
The development of the coercive policy has been checked by a strong division of opinion within the cabinet. Lord Ash- bourne insists upon instant action based upon the judgment of the Irish judges— that the anti-rent campaign is illegal. He favors the adoption of the severest measures,
treating the National Leaguers as en- gaged in an illegal conspiracy. Sir Michael Hicks-Beach backed by Lord
Randolph Churchill, demands a mild en- forcement of the ordinary law. Several members of the Government, outside the cabinet supporters of Lord Ashbourne,have advised Lord Salisbury to dismiss Sir Michael Hicks-Beach from the office of Chief Secretary for Ireland, and appomt as his successor # man in favor of thorough evercion. The St. James Gazette and the bulk of the Tory papers violently assail the Government for the dilatory use of the existing powers of suppression. - a ~ <> <O———-
