Rustico.
We catch the first glimpse of Rustico Harbor from near the Baptist Church, on the road thither from Charlottetown. Its expanse of bright blue is seen breaking in among the shadowed hills to the north, and cut off from the sea by the long, straight bar of gleaming white sand. Beyond the summer breeze is chasing the sea waves,into flecks of snowy foam; but whiter stiil are the sails of the fishing fleet scattered thick ‘over its surface, for Rustico is one of our | great fishing ports.
On the rest of the way out some view of
the bay is always with us. Now smiling in “narrow glimpses th: ough the foliaged Strees, ‘and again is preading its broad waters right |up among the rich cultivated farms and
neat white homesteads, At Oyster Bed | Bridge the road winds picturesquely along
the bank of the Wheatley River. Here are remains of shell heaps accumulated by Indians before the European occupation of the country. I felt a grave suspe on that these so called Indian heays wir: only the remains of heaps of massel-mud hauled up by the farmers. But acloser examinaion showed them to be composed a!most entire- ly of edible species, and the discovery of stone axes and arrow heads among them sets the matter completely at rest.
Rustico, or Racicot, which is the origina! name, is one of the cldest s ttlements on the Island. Before the ri: dle of the last ‘century the French hrd a station here. The earliest seitler of whom any account Is ‘given was one Louis, who, in that crvel time of constant feud and deadly animosity lof the races, sought an asylum hire in the solitude of the forest and the wild sand girt border of the sea. We felt an interest in visiting the spot where dwelt this hermit alone for years, finding a kindlier sympathy in the savage wildness of nature, than amid the abodes of his envious fellow men. As a tradition of the time, it is related that after two years of isolation, Louis one evening saw two men approaching his hut. Supposing that it must be the English in pursuit of him, he levelled his gun and forbade their advance; and only when their familiar voices assured him that they were his own two brothers, could he be per- suaded to entertain them.
We saw the site of the original clearance of this rude pioneer of civilization. °Tis on the meadow-covered bank of the gentle little stream still called Riviere de Louis by the Acadians. The old grave yard is here ‘too—a neglected spot amid the scented grass-fields by the silvery sheen of Louis’ soft-flowing river. The graves are thick crowded and marked only by rude boulder stones. No carved line tells the name, the date of those brave men who first kindled the lamp of civilization in the race dawn of ouf provincial history. The site of the first log chapel, erected one hundred and thirteen years ago is near by. And much that is interesting in Rustico still centres round this spét. The large and tastefully kept chapel, the third building of the kind on this place, the Bank, the Public Hall, and the handsome Convent building are all on this old historic situation,
The road leads past the chapel down to Seaside Hotel. The Hotel is a delightful retreat, surrounded by the wildness and beauty of nature. It is situated on an elevated point opposite the harbor entrance, buried in grovesand draped round with meadows. The glassy waters of the harbor spread round its lawns, and beyond the sand-hills booms the ceaseless surge of the sea. We stood onthe lawn and watched the busy passage of boats about the harbor and the white flecks of sails that dotted the vast blue beyond. The fresh breeze from the water was whispering in the maples.
There were sounds from the harbor and gay voices from the lawn; but, above ail, and through all came the deep-toned, cease- less murmur from beyond the storm-riven sand-hills. The never-hushed voice of the sea, is one of the beauties of the place, the grandest cord in nature’s mighty anthem oi praise.
We took a boat and went across the har- bor to the Island. The kingfisher was plunging into the glassy surface and the snowy terns on their buoyant pinions floated round us, wild spirits from the deep. The Western part of Rustico Island isa wilderness of storm-tossed sand-dunes. On the landward side, they are covered with 'sand-grass. The long interlacing roots of which keep the sand from shifting. On the sea-face the winds have woven the shifting sands intoa thousand fantastic forms, like ruined walls and casties, all along the border of the foaming deep. Krom this point the long line of grey sand hills and shaggy groves is seen stretching to the eastward along the border of the guli till it is lost in the dim eiher of the horizon.
We were glad to learn that the bresk- water built on the western side of the har- bor entrance, though yet incomplete, has deepened the water three feet on the bar. The position of these sanded harbof is not very permanent. Sixty years ago the entrance of the little harbor was close to Brackley Point but is now shifted’more than a mile to the westward alongside of Robis- ons island. At the time mentioned, a marsh and a considerable wood occupied the situation where now the fishing vessels pass in and out.
* There is a pleasant drive along the high bank to the westward of the hotel. We passed round it at sunset, when the Hunter River lay in calm shadows and the verdant
swells of North Rustico were shrouded in purple light. The crowded fish- ing village, the lighthouse and the
returned fishing fleet were all in full view. and beyond, the great red capes were black in shawdow by the border of the restless sea.
of lines and the purple singed cups of
| oxalises, which bear five golden drops in their bosoms. By a little run over whose babbling crystal the flags were waving their blue and golden banners we found the winter-berry bush JPrinos vei ticillabus—a flowing shrub covered with pure white snow-flakes of blossonss—which | hed not seen before. A botanist needs to be a great rambler. Almcst every hill-side and every SWatnp possesses some floral feature peculiar to Itself. and which is of interest to the student of nature.
Evening shadows had closed over the woods and hills, the broad-fields and grove- embowered homesteads of this land of tradition and beauty when we left on our way homeward. Little Waddy, tired with 'the day’s rambling, fell asleep by my side in the carriage. So slept the stars on the shadowed bosom of lovely Rustic Bay.

A rip to Victoria, Crapaud. BY J. J. C.
By Wednesday morning’s Express, in company with other delegates to the Grand Division, we leave the dust and turmoil of the city, and ina very brief space of time we find ourselves welcomed at County Line Station by Messrs. Nelson, Mclntosh and Lowther, who have teams in readiness to convey the delegat:s to their destination. After a warm shake-hands from our genial iriknd, J, W. Hughes, Esq., we started oat, and in a short time find ourselves in the new and rising little villege of Victoria. The Grand Division held their meeting in a hall kindly loaned by the Rev. Mr. Johnstone. The reports of the (Jrand Officers were full of encouragement as to the present standing of the Order. The time for adjourning having arrived, the delegates were invited to visit the beautiiul residence owned by J. B. Lea, Esq. In the dining- room a large table had been arranged by the ladies and an excellent dinner was served. Seon after dinner Grand Division resumed, and we found ourselves in the midst of important business. After an hour or two spent in discussing matters vitally affecting the temperance question, and the disposition of certain resolutions, the session was brought toaclose. In the oar a public meeting was held in the new Methodist Church, Henry Wadman, Esq., presiding. A choir in the gailery rendered excellent service. The address of weleome wus delivered by Richard Nel- son, Esa., and responded to by the G. W. Patriarch, Jas. Carruthers, Esq. Recita- tions were given by Messrs. Henderson and Fowler, and addresses by D. Rogers, Esq., Rev. J. A. Dafoe, Rev. A. McLean and the Grand Scribe. Feeling reference was made to the late Father McGillivray, beloved and esteemed by all who knew him, and his hervic labors in the cause of Temper- ance. The meeting was one of the eet we have ever attended. On Thursday morning, in company with the Secretary of School Trustees, we visited the new ool House. It isa fine substantial building, 65 x 26, and affords ample accommodation to the large number of scholars in attend- ance. One of the teachers said it was the intention to have a good school bell attached to the building. In the afternoon in company with the Rector, the Rev. T. W. Johnstone, we visited St. John’s Church. On eatering, we noticed many improvements since cur Jast visit,seven years ago, A very costly stone font stands near the entrance. The Pulpit and Reading Desk are of simple yet neat design, the walls have been nicely marbled, and the old gallery removed. Inserted in the wall to the right of the Organ is a very fine marble tablet, inscribed to the memory of Frank Palmer, son of D. W. Palmer, Exq., who perished at sea some seven years ago. The church bell is not attached to the building, but is fitted up in a rough tower, similar to. that of St. Peter’s Church. In the evening we were invited by our old esteemed friend, Solomon J. B. Leard, Esq., of Her Magesty’s Customs, to a sail in Crapaud harbor. This harbor, we noticed, has un- dergone many marked improvements of late years. Onreturn to the wharf we were agreeably surprised to hear that a special meeting of Onward Division, with visi- tors from Lady Fane, had been calied. After the opening ceremony two proposi- tions were submitted, one of these a well known and very popular officer of the Do- minion Government. Singing and speeches were now in order. Messrs. Reid, Me- Intosh, McDonald, McQuarrie and others spoke of the meeting of Grand Division, and said it had been the means of infusing new life intothe order. The Grand Scribe told them about Peter VanIderstine, the long, lanked Barbour of St, Petersburg, and enjoined upon all the necessity of faithfulness and perseverance, in order to the accompiishment of our purposes. We have often beard hard things about Victoria and drink; but we have no hesitation in saying that a more quiet, orderly, and law- abiding people is not to be found on the Island. The only signs of the traftic that we could see was three or four dirty old bottles, used for propping up the window of a wonderfully constructed hovse. ‘Only this and nothing more.’ Ou Friday morning we find ourselves on board the good steamer ‘Heather Belle,” under command of Capt. Haugh McLean, a very attentive and oblig- ing officer. After quite a number of passengers and a large amount of freight was taken on board, we steamed out of Victoria. An excellent dinner was served on board. The steamer’s cabins are not yet quite finished, but the passengers speak most favorably of the construction of the boat, und believe that it will give entire satisfaction to the public. After a very pleasant sail we reached home, bearing with us kind reminiscences of our trip to Vic- toria. God save the Queen.
