Queen Square | Unper the tasteful and skilfal manage- ment otf A. Newbery, Esq., who is aided by a competent landscape gardner, the adornment of Queen Square with trees, grass, shrubs and flowers, is reaching ‘completion for the season. As early as ‘possible in the spring, even before the ‘frost was out of the ground, Mr. New-
$500,000. bery commenced tree planting ; and with |
‘characteristic energy and pluck brought a large lot of beautiful lime trees from Halifax, just before Arbor Day (which we are sorry to say failed to come off this year) and placed them on Gratton and Richmond Streets—north and south of the Square and St. Paul’s Charch ground from Queen to Prince Streets. With their neat, painted, ‘“ protectors,” the trees present a pretty appearance now, and give evidgpce of handsome and stately proportiors in _ the near future. While the tree-planting was going on. other of Mr. Newbery’s men were grading the grounds and malls of the Square—in some cases re-grading aud re-arranging parts which were part- ly prepared last season, and seedirg grass and makioy plots for the reception flowers and foliage plants. For some days past, under Mr. Newbery’s super- vision, the gardener and assistants have beea setting out the plants and flowers, as the seasou is propitious, and in a short time the work will be completed.
Very few who admire the beautiful flowers and plants, realize the care, trouble, time and expense bestowed by Mr. Newbery in preparing — the plants for their reception in the plots. When the frosty weather of Jast autumn admouished him to remove and care for th: plants which adorned the Square last season, Mr. Newbery had only a very small hot-bed to place them in,and could therefore save butfew. But he imported a heating apparatus, e*pe- cially designed for the purpose, from the United States, and placing it in a hot- house of fair dimensions, which he de- signed and built while the heating apparatus was onthe way, he duriug favorable weather and opportunities, from the few plants he saved in the small hot-bed, propagated the greater number of flowers and plants which will adorn the Square this season. Some of the varieties he, of course, raised from seed. ‘I'he bot-house was well worth a visit before he commenced removing the plants, as the groups of varied colored plants and flowers even then were pretty and pleasing to the eye, One could only, by visitiag the hot-house, realize the immense amount of labor and attention given to the propagation of the plants—and it was and is on Mr. Newbery’s part—a labor of love, and a determination to please and benefit his fellow citizens.
Mr. Newbery has only succeeded in performing the mass of labor he has given to the work of beautifying the town’ and in attending to his official duties,by carefully husbanding his time. His example is a good one for others to follow, as there is, and has beep, too little urban patriotism (if we may be al- lowed to coin a pbrase) amongst us. Many who are able, and possessed of means and leisure take little in town im- provements. We wish that the sum of two thousand dollars a year could be (for say five years) placed in Mr. New- bery’s hands to be expended in adorning and improving our streets. It would pay, if sordid considerations are only , to be viewed, while the comfort experinced, —as the dust would be reduced one-third at least, aad the pleasureto be derived from promenading or driving through handsome streets, would compensate for the ‘outlay ten times over.
Yachting.
Mucu interest is now exhibited in the United States on the subject of yachting. The cup which was won by General Butler’s yacht America, several years ago in England, is to be sailed for soon in American waters, and the New York Yacht Club is making great efforts and preparations to retain the cup on this side of the ocean this season. Yachts ‘from England and the British Provinces have for several attempted to re-capture the American’s cup, but have failed. This season other English and Dominion yachts have been build and equipped to wrest, if possible, the cup from the Americans; and yacht sailing matches or trial trips are of frequent occurrence now in America, in the great International — contest soon to come off. <A few days since, in a race in New York waters between four centreboard sloops, one of them, the
hours, seventeen minutes and 36 seconds; and a paper commeating on this perforance, says that it has been

'to say that the Mischief made five dis- tinct turus during the contest, and remarkably quick time in sailing the ‘forty miles. Genesta is the name of the British yacht which has been specially }built to carry off the America’s enp, and she is now on her way across the /ocean to New York, The friendly con. | test, in the beautiful and bealthfal recre- ation or sport of yacht sailing, will soon absorb much attention on both sides of the water.
LEPPERS TO THE EDITOR,
— $<
| Provident Mutual Association of Canada.
Str,—As nemerous false rumors have been circulated to the prejudice of the ‘Provident Mutual Association of Can- ada,” would you kindly give insertion to the attached paragraph, clipped from the Toronto Mail of the 17th inst. :—‘*The business of the Provident Mutual has been conducted with marked ability aud pru- deuce, as is evidenced by the small ratio of mortality experienced. Another import- ant fact is that thousands of dellars have been paid to the families of deceased mem- bers that never would or could have in- sured with old line companies
“With ordinary care it can either con- tinue in business, having ample funds to meet its liabilities in full, or wind up with little or no logs to its members. Ali have had value for the money they have paid, inasmuch as up to this date they have been insured at less than one-half the cost charged by an old line company.”
I have also received the following official letter, which speaks fer itself :~—
*‘MonTREAL, June 18th, 1885, “Theo. L, Chappelle, Esq., Charlottetown, P.. Bi. ‘Dear Sin,— Yours with Mr Hopper’s Iet- ter to hand “Mr, Hopper has left the Provident to take charge of an American Association as its re- presentative for this section of the country. Iam informed to-day that he has detinite)+ obtained the general agency for Canada and { believe it is the case. “Our circular, which we send you by this mail, will convince you that the Provident is pushing for new business and is able to com- pete for business with any other Company. I see no harm in Mr. Hepper trying to work up his Company, bat it would be wrong for members leaving their own Canadian Company to jom a forcign institution, **Yours faithfally, ‘“‘ArTHUR GAGNON, **Managing Director.” Yours truly, Turo. L. CHAPPELLE,
Agent Provident Mutual Association. Ch’town, June 22, 1885.
The Volunteer Fund.
Sir,—Some time ago, I asked for informa- tion about what had been dono with the proceeds of the performance given for the benefit of the Halifax Volunteers who had gone to the front, and was informed that the amount realized was about two hundred dollars, and that one hundred had been sent forward, but since that time nothing further has been made public. Now, Sir, since this is a public matter, our Stipen- diary should give the public some informa- tion about what has been done with their money. He should be held responsible for the whole amount, and let him give us a statement of the whole proceedings—what the gross receipts were and what the ex- penses—also where the balance is. If part of itis not fortheoming he should pay it himself. There was surely time enough before the departure of the worthy Secre- tary to have had the matter properly closed up and the net proceeds sent to the proper parties, so that the people of Charlottetown might get credit for what they did, and not have people think that the performers have only been wasting their time and the pub- lic paying their money for a purpose to which it has never been put. The whole arrangement seems to have been very poorly and, I might say, carelessly managed. ‘The performers have never even been thanked for their trouble by the committee in charge, neither has any credit been given the Oddfellows for the use of their scenery, or the getting up of the per- formance in the first place.
Credit should be given to whom it is due. I am surprised that the matter has not been brought to the notice of the public ere this,
‘and I think if our worthy officers (Major
Irving and Col. Beer) had known how mat- ters were, they would have had it cleared up long ago, and not have anything of the kind dragging along for nearly two months, when the money shorld all have been in Halifax in less than a week after the per- formance was given. Yours truly, Ros. Ch’town, June 20, 1885.
“An ounce of prevention worth a pound of cure’ isan old adage but true. In view of | pretictions that this country is liable to be | visited by more than an ordinary amount of contagious disease this year, it behoves all to inquire about and practice every sanitary measure,especially cleanliness, which as a pre- ventive, cffers some one means of eecape at least: and in this how important the article of Soap as to quality fit for use; certainly all in- ferior grades made so by foreign substances and adulterations of a questionable charactar, should be rejected, that there moy be no taint left on the person or clothes which might in ‘any way invite the germs of these various dis- leases. A first-class article, made by known ' reliable manufactarere, is the only kind that |can be safely used or recommended. In the ‘use of astandarl soap, like the ‘‘Welcome,”
made by Curtis, Davis & Co., there can be no ‘risk, being the goods of a firm whose name on | soap is a suflicient guarantee of its purity. es > + Sue our Novelties in Ladies’ (bains, Initial and Nome Pins, Cuff Studs, &c.. jast opened junel3
