Six,— Although you extol the postal authorities and assure us that they will shave the possible closely in serving the public under changed mail service, how did it happen that we received no foreign mai! last night and only amixed and alio- gether unsatisfactory assortment today. Certainly the railway or the boatie not to blame this time. The postal auchorities who are so worthy of praise as efficient officials must bave known that yesterday’s mail could have been brought to the province aod distributed east and west fifieen hours earlier by the mail clerks who went along with Only local matter last night. If they did not know they are hardly as up to date as we are being led to

believe. And to day, by the three o’clock train, what have we gotin the west after walliog another fifteen hours? Oaly a part of yest rday *s mail even, as it would have come by the old arrangement.

The Board of Trade has heen very active of late and given much study to the m) sils problem, andr soluted loudly en- ovgh to be heard at Ottawa. But let us hope that all this was not for Charlottes town alone, where some people think

every legitimate demand begins and ends. There are other piaces, inthe Province besides Char lotietow Db. we beg to remark; and if vo mail clerk 18 put on the Princess what will happen so far as they are con- cerned? Why, instead of suffering a dilay of fifteen hours, we'll have to add another twenty-four hours to that for all western points! This moroing, even, the train had to be delayed at vour end togive us a small portion of our ancient mail; to- morrow if avything happeu to delaythe boat we’)l get none at oll. It isclear, then that we cannot depend upon the Charlottetown postoflice for distribution. It must be dove on the boat ifwearetogetour mail. They say that there is nO distributing room on the Princesse, and in that case the resource ful 8. N, Co sbouid supply the defect at once. ‘hen if ope mail clerk cannot do the work let there be two or three—any number required to give us the prompt d«livery we have a right te, But does it not occur to you, sir, as op- portune, in all this conflict as to speedy transit, to urge upon the governing powers the eclection of the shortest, speediest and best route into and out of the Province. There is no place elee in all creation, but here where aight orday makes any diff- erence in the continious transmission of mails and passengers. And why should we worry over this trivial detail. We had better make up our minds tbat until the Capes route (the one natural route) is selected, no prompt system available will exclude night work for officials. But we ought to be getting nearer a settled pulicy as to the best point of contact in this mail service withthe mainland, Sir Louis will, in this matter, have to choose between his 8, A.Co., and his duty to the whole Province. We cannot afford to go back to primitive arrangements. We ought not to stand still and biue— monid either; and as the only light to a progressive step comes from the Capes, the work of building a pier on our side, and thus permitting the plying of steamers there, ought inall reason to be pushed abead in the general interests, let let local concerns or favored ports act as selfishly as they may,
