A son of Mr. River, had, ‘this

James Farqaharson, forencon, a very narrow escape from death. He was coming to this city, with a load ‘of ‘hay. His father, with another load, followed, a short distance iu the rear. As they approached the rallway crossing at the foot of Grafton Street the horse driven by the boy took fright at the Souris train, which was also approaching the crossing. He dashed madly up to the train,and

was caught by a box car, torn from his 1 rad, carried along between a cutting and the train |

and thus crushed to death. ‘he boy, as the horse collided with the car, slipped dowa be tween the load and the train and, strange to say, escaped with slight injuries. ‘The plat form of the passenger car, to which the box car wat attached, was badly broken, but no further damage was done, >

Tur Summerside “Journal,” without regard to etiquette, or even common decency, char ged an official of the Railway Department with writing letters which recently appeared in TH® Examiner, over the signature of ‘‘ Liberal” and “‘ Disgusted Liberal.” Such an accusation is mani‘estly unjust, and is cal- culated to injure the official, whom the ** Journal” does not name, but clearly points out. Wedo not know who writes the some- times scurrilous, and oftentimes stupid edi- torials of the ‘‘Journal,’”’ but were we to charge a clergyman with their authorship, and say he lives in a Summerside Manse, our charge would be as just and correct, as the one to which we above refer. However, we must strictly abstain from accusing a clergy- man of having anything to do with the ‘* Journal's” editorials. We have a higher opinion of them (the clergymen) than that In justice to the otiicial accused, we may state that since he accepted a situation in the Railway Department he has not coatributed a line of correspondence or editorial matter to this paper. It is therefore highly improper for a newspaper to make such false accusa tions. In decency, the ‘‘Journal” should witndraw the charge made, accompanied by an humble apology.

| a Orrawa, March 23, During Mr. Mills’ speech about half past

{ |nine this evening, word was brought to the

’ - 4 Heuse that Bl

the Western Block was on fire. Sir Hector Langevin, who was among the | Hest to get the news, whispered it to Sir yn and rushed out. Sir John explained and moved House during

lit to a few about him, I the adjournment of the |the pleasure of members. The peo- |ple in the gaileries,which were crowded, were thrown into a flutter of excitement |and a panic nearly occurred. Many thought | the Parliament Building itself was on fire |and rushed out. On learning that the fire | was out all hands retmrned to the House j}and the galleries. The debate went on as | before.

| A deputation of thirty-five electors from Lennox waited on Sir John MecDonaid to-day, and tendered him the Conserva'ive |nomination for the Commons. . Sir John lthanked the deputation and accepted the In mination, but makes the condition that

Kast | he is to be excused from canvassing.

In the Commons, this afternoon, Mr. Snowball made a speech of two hours, which infused new life into the debate. | He was closely listened to throughout by a full Honse. [t was his best effort yet made }in Parliament.

seven miles between Dover Cove and the town ef Canso, and are expected to be com- pleted in a few days. The deep sea cable | was successfully landed at noon to-day, and at 130 p. m., the * Faraday” started to

‘a, paying out the cable to join with the portion of the second cable, which she suc- cessfully laid last fall, and burying about 500 miles from this point.

ROBERT D. McLEOD, Feb, 28. 1882.

MORE LIGHT!

YEYUE Charlottetown Gas Light Company have imported some of “Bray's Burners,” which they will supply and fit on Gas Brackets, etc., at a moderate cost to consumers,

These Burners are reported to be the best Flat Flame Burner yet produced, and will give a far greater »mount of light than any other Burner with the same consumption of Gas.

Dr. Waliace, F. R. 5. E., F. C. 8, Gas Examiner to the City of Glasgow, in a lecture delivered by him, calculated that £130,006 ($650,000) a year, are thrown away in Glas gow by the use of imperfect fittings. On the subject of Gas Burners he says; “ Another and as I think a, better Burner is that called Bray’s regulator, avd as I consider these the best unien Burners attainable at moderate cost, I have selected them for a series of exe periments,

The Report of the Committee of the British Association of Science to enquire as to the best means for the development of light from Cos! Gas of different qualities—comprising Dr. William Wallace, Professor Dittmar, and Mr, Thomas Wills, F. 0.8., F. I. C. E., showed that Bray’s Burner's yielded the greatest amount ot light of all the two or three score of Burners reported upon, which included all the Burners of repute in the market,

In a pamphlet upon Light and Heat, pub- lished by R. B. Taber, A. M,, he says: “'The cost of Gas as compared with other illumin- autsis much more economical when rightly used, than many suppose, From experiments made for this purpose, the following results have been obtained, They were made by burning samples ot Devyoe’s Brilliant Oil and ordinary Oils, and testing their iliuminating power. It was found that Coal Ges costing one cent at $3 per thousend feet, gave & light equal to 18 candles, while Devoe’s Brilliant Oil censeming 27.4 grammes cost- ing halfa cent, gave a light equal to 9 candles,

“A good Argand or Johnson's Burner, the Burner's used in the last experiment, will therefore give the light of 2 ordinary Oil Burners in direct comparison, at no greater expense in the cas» of the finer and safer grades of Oil, Lights,however, on the author. ity of Scientists, are not te be compared in direct proportion, but in proportion to the squares of their powers, and such @ Come parison with the case of the use of Gas, its cleanliness, freedom from odor and dangers, renders its use desirable wherever it can be introduced.”

As the above experiments were made with Gas at $3 per 1000 feet, and not consumed through Bray’s Burners, it will readily be seen bow much more economical it is to con- sume Gas instead of Oil, when its price is only $2.63 per 1000 feet as now charged here when consumed, more especially through Bray’s Burners.

Meesrs, Goodwin & Co., of Philadelphia, the well-known manufacturers of Scientific in- struments for testing the illuminating power of Coal Gas, etc., say jn their Circular to Gas Companies : “In presenting the Bray’s Stand- ard Patent Slit Union Burners and Lanterns, for which we are the sole Agents in the United States, to the attention of the public, we are convinced that we are filling a want long felt.’ They further add: ** The yield ot light from these Burners is 12 to 26 per cent, greater per cubic foot of Gas consamed than that from any flat flame Burner hitherto in- troduced. {no 4 cod
