—The Marquis of Lorne and Princess Louise sailed from Quebec for England, on the 27th inst., on the Allan Steam- ship “Sardinian,” carrying with them the good wishes of every loyal Canadian. There was a very large turnout of the population of Quebec to bid the ex-vice- regal party a last adieu. Prior to his departure Laval University presented to the Marquis the diploma of that institu- tion conferring upon him the degree of Doctor of Laws and Langnages, in re- cognition of his eminent services to the cause of Canadian education. Lord Terne returned very gracious aud appropriate reply. A deputation of chiefs aud warriors of the Huron In- dians, of Lorette, also waited on the Marquis to ratify his nomination as hon- orary Grand Chief of the tribe. The “Sardinian” has been fitted out in a truly regal style for their proper recept-

jon, having undergone a complete transformation for the purpose. 0; stepping aboard the steamer hearty

eers were given for the Marquis and the Princess, two actors, as Grip says, who have played their parts well. We join with,the whole Press of Canada in wishing them lon voyage, and a useful future cafeer.

--At first sight of the long columns of figures in last evening’s Patriot one is reminded of thé extended account for stationery which may be found in our Provincial archives to wit: “The Gov- ernment of P. E. Island to David Laird, Dr.” ete., etc. But on closer examin- ation the resemblance is fouad to be not so very striking. The small articles and the large prices are both absent from this last account; and the likeness to the first is only in its length! Not sta- tionery, pocket knives and spectacles, but piers—public piers—are the subject of’this account; and a comparison is made between the Governmental expen- ditures on piers under the administration of Davies and Sullivan respectively. What for? Simply to prove that under the former $6,667.17 more were ex- pended than under .the latter. It is notorions that while Mr. Davies Was in power there were more com- plaints about the roads, bridges, piers, ete., than since Mr. Sullivan began to lead the Government; and the only interest the public have in the fact the Patriot has'been at such great pains to bring out, lies in this: that under Mr. Sullivan the public works were better maintained at so much less expense. The Patriot, in its comparison, unfairly includes the present year, during which, for reasons that are well known, no ex- penditures have been made for piers. For the rest, we leave the Patriot to the tender mercies of the Commissioner of Public Works, whom it has singled out for attack and whom it most grossly misrepresents.

——As the facts in connection with the recent Algoma election become kuown, the means by which the Ontario Gov- ernment succeeded in carrying it, ex- cites wonder and astonishment. Fearful lest the peace of Algoma might be broken by these execruble men, the Tories, Mr- Mowat? hired a large num- ber of special constables from among a class that had no political proclivities, but were only waiting to be bought, at the moderate wages of $10 a day during the time they would be required on service.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.

All Halloween.

Siz,—To-morrow will be All Halloween, and I beg, through you, to direct the atten- tien of the Stipendiary Magistrate to the necessity of providing for the safety of the property of citizens. For several years past a large number of our would be gentle- mén (/) assume the role of Blackguard, and remove and destroy gates, docrsteps, fences and evetything moveable, and after- wards boast of their achievements in the illicit ram shops of which our town is now so full, and where, in fact, they derive in- spiration for their unmanly and disreput- able de The ‘police, if they do not encourage this rowdyism, certainly do nothing to eheck it and arrest the rowdies. Last year property was destroyed in every part of the town and not one arrest was made. If the authorities are unable to protect the iproperty of citizens, they will be compelled to take the matter in their own hands. Until a severe example is made of several of the scoundrels the nuisance will continue. I would suggest a liberal use of duck shot upon the first man who attempts to remove property. Des- perate diseases require desperate remedies.

Yours truly, Bucksnor.

+4<3>e- Notes from Souris.

The brig. Maxelton, Capt. Bartlett, put in here on Wednesday evening, in con- sequence of her mainsail being damaged by fire. Some 60 yards of canvass were re- quired to mend the rent caused by the spark of fire which lodged in the bed of the sail. She is herring loaded and bound for Charlottetown.

The schooner Harriet Torry, Capt. Lord, came into port Saturday night with 120 barrels of mackerel. They were taken by means of a seine and that during the last few days. The Harriet Torry is owned by Mr. D. Castello, of Bear River.

The Souris Branch of the Dominion Alliance will meet next Wednesday even- ing at 8 o’clock, sharp.

Shipping continues dull owing chiefly to the unmerchantable size of potatoes. Oats have been coming in slowly, but this week notes an improvement. The Millie B., Capt. Downey, is being loaded with pota- toes by Messrs. Doyle & McBride; the Lilly A. W., by Sterns Bros.; and the Mayflower, Capt. Malcolm, by J. G. Sterns, Esq.

The sch. Welcome, which drowned nine men last August, is being refitted and re- paired. She will load with preduce in a few days for Halifax.

The American fishing sch. M. L. Wetherell, called here Thursday evening for a seine boat, which she lost some time ago off the North Side. She is direc+ from Sydney, and reports the fleet doing nothing in the mackerel line.

Mr. Berrie, of St. Margaret’s, N. 8., is paying a visit to his. esteemed son-in-law, the Rev. J. J. Coulter.

The schooner Lorraine is receiving a first class ;ainting.. She is loading dry fish for the Haiifax market.

Mr John Tierney has returned home, after an absence of two years, from Colorado.

Meat canning preparations are the order of the day. Owing to the large quantities of stock canned last year only a nominal amount will be preserved this fall.
