' t OUR STREETS. | Wrra the return of spring we have to ,endure the return of many things less 'pleasant than the songs of birds, the |balmy breezes, and the scent of newly- isprung flowers. Put, perhaps, there is nothing more disagreeable from New Year | to New Year than the abominable state of our streets at this poetic season. It is not ithe melting of the snow alone that makes jthem so unpleasant to the sight and the tread ; it is not only the mud, which in a soil like ours almost inevitable ; but it is ithe accumulation of filth of all sorts, that |has been allowed to remain on our streets |during summer and autumn, and winter, itill spring comes with its slush to mix all ‘into one digusting mass. Iam not going ito raii on the City Councillors, for they ‘seem to be elected by the people with a i tacit underetanding that they are to do as | little as possible in the way of improvement. il am not geing to blame the City Surveyor, or the Police, or any of those high oficials | who are vaguely supposed to be responsible 'for Civic affairs. That the town is so dis- | gustingly dirty and so painfully ugly is not ‘the fault of the few »:ersons who happen to be in office at any particular time—it is the fault of the people of Charlottetown at large, and another of those characteristics that make this town one of the dullest, least energetic, and mest backward com-

munities in Canada. We have been used to walking every spring, through slush and mud, and something

that is worse ; we have been used to be blinded and choked every sum- mer with dust; we have been used to stenches of every sickening kind, as we pass along the streets ; we have been bred to it ali, and we would rather go on as we have been going on than exert ourselves forachange. We have no more notion that it is indecent to have our town so dirty, than has the Irish peasant that it is indecent to keep his pigs in his own bed- room.

There has been a great deal of snow this winter, and it has been a matter of surprise to some that householders and proprietors were not forced to keep the sidewalks clean. Itir not generally known, however, that there is now law to compel them to do so, except for people living between Pownal

street and Prince street. Why people living beyond these limits should be so badly treated is not ex-

~—

explained. But we all have the satisfac- tion of knowing that though the letter of the law may-apparently favor one street more than the other, still it dees not make any real difference, for the law in Charlotte- town need not be kept. If it is allowable to break it in Queen street, what can be expected in Water Street or Great George Street ? Of course it is some one’s duty to see that the law is kept, and that person is answerable to the people for the fulfilment or the neglect of his duty; but as long as the people are careless, and shamelessly un- clean, so long will the officials whom they appoint be careless, and shamelessly neglect- ful of their daty. R. B. C.

West River Bridge Notes.

An immense quanity of mussel mud was raised here this winter, and still the hum continues.

Steps should be built on the south side of the Bridge to enable the traffic to pass at that end, as the north side is full of spring holes, some of which are new open and very dangerous.

The people here look with pride and satisfaction upon the west River Bridge and for that and other reasons will give a hearty support to the Government candi- dates at the coming election.

The Bridge offers one of the best sites on the Island for tradesmen or business men, from the large extent of country on each side. A tailor, blacksmith and shoemaker are badly wanted, and would be sure of abundance of work and a smart business man, who weuld keep a supply of geod groceries, etc. would have herean excel- lent location, and would do a big cash business. So come along, the first that comes gets the business. GE oe

Ex-Empress Everne.—A eorrespondent of the Buffalo Courier writea:—‘*‘ To-day I saw that former beauty, the former Em- press of France, entering her temporary London residence. The tall, erect and stately figure is bént and drooping ; the queenly air is akin to that of a mendicant: the fair locks in their luxuriant wealth of tresses are white as the driven snow, and thin and scanty in appearance; the large, expressive and animated eyes, half violet and half blue in recurrent tints, are gray, watery and leaden-lcoking; the oval face is wrinkled and worn by cruel care; and the blush of beauty is supplanted by a sepulchral whiteness. It has been my lot to see ociher queens in exile, other mag- nates dethroned; but no one so strongly aronses sympathetic sorrow as does this widowed, childless, parentless ex-Empress. It is

feeding the hungry, clothing the naked and

comforting the afflicted. Where the poor wear not their wants on their sleeves, there you will find the prematurely aged and tot- tering lady rescuing asocial wreck and hold- ing out a hopeful beacon.

It isreported that Mr. Mitchell Henry, M. P., will be raised to the peerage, Mary Power O’Connor, a sister of thef Irish M. P., of that name, has been pros. ecuted for advising tenants not to pay rent. She went to gaol in default of find- ing bail.

Bank of Prince Hdward Island. To the Editor of the Hxaminer.

Siz ,—As a constant reader of your paper I have perused many articles lately pub- Vsied about cur unfortunate Bankirg in- stitution. in which many views, suggestions and opinions have been presented. I therefore trust. you wiil net consider it amiss, if I should give my opinions. From general conversation in the different parts of the Island I have visited, I learn that all are anxious and willing to assist the Bank of P. E. Island to resume business. Now, why not open a subscription list (let it be confined to the Island) and see what patriot- ism there is amongst us? What is a Chicago or St. John fire compared to the failure of this institution to the Ieland. In one case the house and furniture is burnt but the owner has his banking account aad insurance money to rebuild, (the latter in Inany cases a great advantage to him.) But when one’s life’s earnings be taken ; when the loss of a regular income to the widow or orphan is certain, efforts should be made to save them from poverty. Give them back their money, is what I would suggest, and the money given in this worthy manner will be certain to bring its own reward to our little Island. *‘ Life is short,” and while together we should all assist one another. Twenty-five thousand subscriptions of ten dollars each would, I venture to say, place the Bank on a sound footing again, and would be scarcely felt by the contributors. One of vour correspondents—‘ Busi- ness’’—states that in two years we will have forgotten about the failure, and he certainly is in very good spirits, and his letter is suggestive of the fact that he is one of the fortunates that has made money out of the serious failure, or perhaps has taken advantage of the Garnishee Act. He certainly looks at the wreck through green glasses. In thanking you for publishing the above, Mr. Editor, if you thiuk my views practic- able, a few hints from your pen on the sub- ject would oblige

Address To John Ross, Esq., Dear Six,—In consideration of your valuable services as teacher of the Cape Wolf Singing Class, we beg leave to express to you our sincere gratitude. The progress mado by the pupils under your chargeisthe surest proof of your untiring diligence in their behalf, and illustrates the fact that resolute and unremitting devetion may achieve results in excess of the hopes of the most hopeful. Ali are agreed that your methods of discipline and organization are admirable ; while your perseverance in meeting your class according to appoint-nent, in spite of snow-storms excessive, has convinced every- one of your sterling reliability. In the short time we have had the pleasure of being your pupils, we have been econ- vinced that wherever you choose to take up your abode, yeur usefulness as a member of society, and your superiors talent as a teacher cf music, must be unanimousiy appreciated, While we regret that we are soon to be deprived of your valuable services, we entertain a hope that at some future time you may favour us in again becoming our teacher. Cherishing this hope, we in the meantime respectfully request you to accept this weak expression of our regard for you, and we assure you that the knowledge of your success wil always be accompanied a pleasant remembrances in the minds °

Jotham Blanchard, Metherall, and Allan Ferguson, GENILEMEN,—Your very unexpected and fiattering address has taken me somewhat by surprise. {thank you most heartily for the very complimentary address just presented, and the high encomiums on my services during the short period I have been amongst you ; but the main cause of the success of the class must be attributed more to the close attention paid to the lessons, with the uniform good order preserved by the pupils, than to any extra effort on my part. Your kindly expressions towards me I appreciate very highly, and hereby most cordially thank you, and through you, the members of the singing class at Cape Wolfe. I remain, er. with respect, ours

The Queen, it is said, has given offence to the Eton boys by driving almost in state, a compliment she did not offer them, to receive the felicitations of the Roman Catholic boys at the Jesuit College of St. Stanislaus at Beaumeut, Old Windsor. Two hundred students, with the eldest son of Don Carlos at their head, were in line, al! with bouquets in their jackets, and the Queen was greatly struck at their bright, fresh looks and loyal enthusiasm.
