MR. PETERS’ RESIGNATION.

Mr. Perers waited upon His Honor Lieutenant Governor Howlan this forenoon aod delivered up the seals of hi- «flice as Premier and Attorney-General wf the Province. We have not yet heard that he has resigned his seat ia the Legislative Assembly. But, practically, he is out of politics. Thisisafact upon which we may congratulate both Mr. Peters and the public at large. Mr. Peters is no naturally a politiciao; and bis training base been rather that ofa lawyer than a states - man. He cannot bave bad unalloyed enjoyment throughout the period in which he has been atthe head of the Government, aod we feel sure that he will te glad to escape from the position of Premier, in- fluential though it is and powerful in it as he has proved himaelf to be. Upon the other hand, the people at large will rejoice thatan administration whieh must ever be associated in their minds with public debt and public taxation is no more. At the same time, we feel assured that they bear Mr. Peters no personal ill-ill aud that they will unite with Tue Examiner in the hope that bis namewill soon be added to the long iist of successful Islanders abroad.

LADY MACDONALO’S LIFE OF SIR JOHN.

No man bas lived in Canada whose caree was so completely in the public eye as that of Sir John Macdonald. Yet there are some points in it npor which his wife hes thrown some additional light in the short and well-written article "which las just been published. Referring to her husband’s early struggles Baroness Mac- donald says:

“Practically bread-winning for the family fell to the hard-worked lad. He studied law, sat in an office, and ran home early to belp in the little home. There were breaks sometimes of course in the daily routine, when young neighbors met together and amused themeelves ; but for the most part-it wasa stern life, full of care and business, both further weighted with scanty means and sad want of op- portunities. The boy’s promise was only slowly realized. Seat to help in a country law firm when about twenty years old, he did well and made new friends, life Zradually brightened and enlarged as experience and income increased. He grew prominvert aod popular us years went on, and after being called to the bar, opened a law office in Kingston, started on his own account, rose steadily in his profession, made money, @od interested himself in politica. Sir John’s first visit to England was in 1842, a year after his father’s Toate and soon after bis return to Canada he was elected 10 sit for Kingston in the Legisla- tive Assembly of the two provinces, of which at that time the now far stretch- ing Dominion of Canada was alone com- poeed.”

Of the difficulties by which he was beret and the triumphs which he won late: in life, she says:

“For nearly fifty eonsecntive years he sat ip that Parliameut, entering the small legislative chamber in Mont a hearty young man of twenty-six, ful] of . hope, courage and iatention, creeping from the

Concerning his personal character she says:

UNCLE SAM’S PROFITS,

The placing of corn on the free ligt has been advaniageous to the United States producer.

He gets the Canadian market, and the Ontario farmer is as a consequence hit in the price for bis oats, which is three cents per buebel less than at thie time laet year.

Ca: adian artieans are ruled out of the United States, but United States artisans have the freedom of the Dominion.

Canadians cannot hold United States Government contracts; but the contracts for printing bank notes and for bnilding locomotives have been given to United States firma, our own people not being permitted to contract on even terms.

Ontop of all this we have the log quettion.
