The roads between East Point and | the nearest shipping place, Souris, are! among the hilliest on the Island, and no| wonder the farmers who have to haul their produce over them in the fall complain bit- terly over the disadvantages and hardships with which they have to contend. A Breakwater at Red Point is what is wanted. A harbor here would prove of more advan- tage to them than even the proposed East Point Railwey. Dr. McIntyre is aware of this, and still he pleads for Bay Fortune and Naufrage, while he hasn’t a word to say in behalf of our Red Point Breakwater. We expected better, both from himself and his colleague, when they were around here canvassing.

Red Point, May 21, 1888. Seana ain chee ocean Another Cryptogram.

A GENTLEMAN WHO BELIEVES THAT CROM- WELL WROTE ‘* PARADISE LOST.”

R.

Mr. Labouchere cables to the New York World as follows : ‘‘ The air is full of cryp- tograms and Donnellyan discoveries just now. Having devoted some attention to the Shakespeare-Bacon controversy —for which, 1 am proud to say, I have received an autograph acknowledgement from Mr. Donnelly—I have been favored with a great many communications from riva) dis- eoverers. [I think the best of these is a communication from a gentleman whv has found out that ‘* Paradise Lost” was really written by Oliver Cromwell. The case for Oliver Cromwell is, to my mind, irresistibly strong. John Milton, as every schoolboy knows, was the Protector’s secretary. Crompell occupied his leisure moments in dictating to him the great Christian epic. It would have been fatal to Cromwell poli- tically, especially with his army, to have been known as a poet, The thing was there- fore kept secret. My intormant supposes that on his deathbed Oliver Cromwell charged Milton to burn the manuscript. The temptation, however, was too much for the honest Puritan, and he brougnt out the work m his own name. I have not space to go into the evidence. But there are one or two points which will strike every reader. Milton certainly wrote light verses as a young man, but nothing which iudicates the seriousness of the purpose of the author of ‘‘ Paradise Lost.” Further light is thrown on his character by the well known fact that he was the last under- graduate subjected to corporal punishment at either university. Finally the prior evi- dence is clinched by a cryptogram like that of Donnelly. My correspondent wisely re- frains from telling all he knows on this point. But it will set people thinking, | fancy, to hear that there are not a page of the ‘** Paradise Lost” in which every letter that forms the name of Oliver Cromwell is not to be found,

A Famous Faster. Mrs. Weidler, the famous Lancaster, | Pa., fasting woman, reached the fifty-

second day of her fast on the 13th. Some of the local physicians think some: one has smuggled food to her, but her door has been barred, the transom nailed up and the only window is barred and three stories above the ground. The only keys to her room are in the keeping of Dr. Sensenig, the resident physician, and Mr. Eaby, the ward-tender, who is an experienced and re- putable woman. Mrs. Weidler entered the institution just one year ago, being sent there because she was starving herself at home. For atime after entering the hos- pital she would eat if she thought no one observed her.. Finally she would not even do this, and for five months liquid food was forced through a stomach pump, the woman violently resisting, and it became necessary to handcuff the poor woman and hold her down in order to feed her. This process was stopped fifty-two days ago, and in all that time Mrs. Weidler has had no nourish- ment but water, drinking from half a pint to a pint daily. She was strong enough en the 13th to scrub the floor of her room and set things to rights.

The Archbishop of Canterbury’s wifc, Mrs. Benson, presided recently at a temperance convention of women at Maidstone. She said she had been a total abstainer for two years, and she urged others to discard intoxicants.

‘*] hear,” says London Truth, ‘‘ that Mr. Robert. Browning has nearly completed the

the record.” In the large English and American markeis their beef sells from two to three cents higher than any other. Both the Hereford and Polled Agus are very hardy, otf kind disposition, easily . kept, great grazers and foragers, and fatten read- uy on grass. They puton flesh in places where it is of most value. Either of the above makes an excellent cross with Short Horn, Ayrshire, or grade cattle of any kind.”

The Voice of the Vatican.

The Chronicle's Rome corzsespondent says:—‘‘ The Papal rescript will be read from Irish pulpits at an early date, with an explanation from the bishops—which will be submitted to the Vatican for revision— to the effect that the Pope does not condemn the political objects of the Nation- alist party, but only the means employed for attaining those objects.”” The Stan- dard’s Rome correspondent says :—‘* The Irish bishops have forwarded to the Pro- paganda their observations on the mode of putting the Papal reseript into effect so as to eliminate any political significance and to avoid bitterness. These and other points are now under consideration.” A majority of the Parnellite members of Parliament have started for Dublin to attend a conference on the Papal rescript, which will be held there on Thursday. Archbishop Walsh, in taking leave of the Pope, said that no Irish could rebel against the rescript, the question being one of faith and morality.

The Late Murder and Drink.

(Toronto Globe.)

It is beyond all reasonable question that the late shocking and deplorable murder by which Toronto has been disgraced was caused. exclusively by intoxicating drink. However brutal and conscienceless Buckley may have been, yet had he not been maddened by drink ke would never have acted as he did. And on the other hand, had his victim been sober, it is all but cer- tain that she would have escaped from the fierce attack of the worthless ruflian with whom she was cohabiting. Drink, brought »oth down to the utter destitution and de- gradation in which they were, and fitly closed their most miserable careers in violence and murder. The whole of the sad and sickening tragady is but another commentary on the character and another illustration of the legitimate effects of the drink traffic. It is for the community tu say hew long such a state of things is to continue.

ee

Gold in the River Bed.

A belief that plenty of gold could be found on the bed of the lower Fraser river, induced an attempt several years ago to employ machinery to get at the precious metal. A powerful steam pump, operating through an iron cylinder, was used to draw sand and gravel up from the bottom of the river, the expectation being that gold would be found amongst the sand. The plan dic not work, and after a good deal of money had been spent the attempt was abandon- ed. A new scheme on lines somewhat similar is at present being taken in hand by indefatigable gold-hunters, and the British Columbian regards the project with favor, claiming that gold must be plenty in the river bed, being washed down from the banks and places where the ore was formerly obtaiaed in abundance.

a

Sir Charles’ Arguments Used>

Mr. Allen, discussing the tariff bill in the House of representatives on the 16th inst., quoted extensively from Sir Charles Tupper’s utterances in the Canadian Parlia- ment, in which explaining his apparent concessions in the fishery negotiations he cited Secretary Bayard’s letters to himself, saying that it was the only way he could obtain his object of closer commercial rela- tions. The ink was hardly dry upon the treaty before the chairman of the committee on ways ard means, representing the ad- ministration, brought forward a measure to make free every article that Canada sent into the United States and upon which $1,- 800,000 in duties were collected last year. The discussion was continued.
