MM. CAUCHON.

Tue Canadian Monthly has the following sarcastic yet thruthful remarks on the conduct of the Grit press in relation to the retirement from the Cabinet of M, Cau chon, the leading member of the Quebec section of the party :—

‘‘The fetirement of M. Cauchon from the Government is one of those unspeak- able blessings which even his friends of the past four years can enjoy with mute com- placency. So faras we have observed none of the Liberal members have honored him with a political obitury. He died and made nosign, and no survivor has de- corated his tomb with immortelles, pro nounced an eulogy, or penned an epitspb in honor of the man. It may be that grief of the dominant party lies too deep tor tears, and many fathoms out of hearing, if it could form itself into words; but it seems far more probable that, having ex- baustively analysed his character during uis public lifetime, it finds there is nothing left for flattery or censure to utter. It is said in the Scriptures that ‘the memory of ihe wicked shall rot;? M. Cauchon, if we may accept the strictures of his recent allies, was, while yet alive, in a state of moral putrescence—or at least his offences were, or they would not bave ascended so rankly to the upper air. Such being the cue, itis perhaps wise in them to bury (heir dead out of their sight in silence anu without display.”

There is nothing very new in the an- nouncement of the rupture between the Allan steamship line and the Grand Trunk Railway, as it has béen a well-known fact for years that the relations between those ¢ rporations have been the reverse of riendly.

Various causes have combined to bring

THF CRATER OF KILAWA,

Tue following extract from a letter writ- ten by Mr. Edward E. Robins to his friends on the Island, though not intended by him to be published, will be found to contain an excellent description of one of the greatest of nature’s wonders. The Island of which this volcano forms no inconsider- able part will be remembered by our readere as being the scene of the murder of Captain Cook. The letter is dated Kapapala Kan, Island of Hawaii, Sandwich Islands, September 15, 1877 :—

‘‘Since I last wrote you I have visited the Volcano Kilawa. This Valcano has the appeirance of a great pit ; it is nine miles in circumference, and its lowest area covers six square miles. The depth of the crater varies from 800 to 1100 feet, accord. ing as the molten sea below is at ebb or flood. No personis allowed to go into the crater alone, consequently, | was ob~ liged to procurea guide. The first des- cent down the wallot the crater is very deep. The second descent is covered with a kind of long grass which bore clusters of blue berries. he beyond looked terrible. The next descent was over blocks of broken lava, which appears to form part of a break which extends irregularly around the whole crater. By this time we were ina region of blackness, terraces, cliffs, ridges and chasms of lava surrounded us, solid, blackened, shining, stained yellow here and there with eulphur or white with alum, lava upheaved every- where by the earthquakes—hot under. neath and emitting steam —after more than an hour of very difficult climbing,we reach. ed the lowest level of the crater, nearly a mileacross. As we went along,the bottom commenced to get hotter, a shower of rain hissed as it fell uponit. The crust at length become insecure, and the guide be-~ gan to use his stick in front, tuo test the footing. At !ength we came to the lake of fire which was 45 feet below us. It was one of the most wonderful sights I ever saw—unimaginable —a ‘sight I shall re member forever. Here was the real bo-~ tomless pit ot fire and brimstone, -- Hel! it- self-—this lake has waves like the ocean There was no smoke arising from it, only a faint blue vapour. The heat was now awful, eventhe soles of our boots were burned, After seeing ail, we returned for the road, and after two hours, got pp again on the top of the earth, we then visited the sulphar banks which are quite near the vuicano road. All round the margin of the crater are blow holes which are con- tinually emitting hot steam.

Exeten Mau Servics.—The arrange- ments for landing and embarking tke English mails at Rimouski wiil close for the season with the mails by incoming steamers from England of the lst Novem- ber, and with the mails for the outgoing steamer of Saturday, the 10th November. It is understood that the incoming steamer of the lst November above noted, will be the last steam-packet of the season to the St. Lawrence, and that the steamer from England, of the 8th November, will land her mails st Halifax under the winter ars rangement. The outgoing mai!; from Quebec, Montreal, and the West, for the steamers of the 17th and 24th November, are to be put on board at Quebec, and must leave the offices making up mails for England, as under the winter arrange, ments, coming down from the West by Friday morning’s train from Toronto, — Montreal Gazette.

about this rupture. Years ago there were two grand monopolies, the great railway monopoly, the Grand ‘Trunk, and the great steamship monopoly, the Allan steamship line For a time they played into one another’s hands, but of late years dissensions have sprung up _ regarding rates and conditions of carrying, which,

with other causes of trouble, have culmin-

ated in an alleged open breach. Some- times the Allan boats complained that the railway authorities delayed freights on the lines ; at other times the railway people charged the Allans with allowing masses of property toaccumulate in Portland. For some years past the exports from Canada via Portland did not afford much chance of competition between several lines of steamers, but the exceptionally huge pro- duction of Canada this year makes suc cessful competition not only a possibility but a sure result. The multiplication of Canadian steamship lines has broken the water monopoly,so now that there are others dipping into the trade, the Allan line goes where it will find more remuner~ ative employment than competing the Beaver and Dominion lines for the carry ing trade of Portland.

Nobody pretends to compare the rival lines on the score of efficiency. The magni- ficent boats of the Allan line, as passen- ger and mail boats. ere immeasurably su- perior in point of elegance and epeed to any Others jcroesing the same waters, but as common carriers they are pretty much on a level, the new lines being the cheaper will balance their deficiency in speed.

When the Allan boats commenced the Baltimore route, they at first met with in- different success, but the wide-awake people of that city have for years been perfecting their inland connections, and though cut off from the Great West by a mountain range, by their indomitable energy and living enterprise all obstacles have been surmounted, and the rapidly growing export of Baltimore warrants the Allans in trying to grasp a large portion of the grain, tobacco, oil, cotton, and naval stores, which seeks the European market through that port.

The question that concerns us is wheth- er anything can be done to make Halitax the outlet for Canada during the period the St. Lawrence is closed.

If we had a government with a spark of patriotic feeling on the subject of having a Winter Port for Canada on our own terri. tory, Halifax harbor, now empty would be filled with steamships and sailing vessels, and the huge wharves at Richmond would be busy scenes Of industry instead of being idle, dull and desolate as they now are.

What we want is patriotism in high places patriotism in working our railway in the interests of the country. patriotism in using the money of the country to advance its commercial interests, instea’ of pcuring it into the lap of foreigners. We want to see selfish individual interests give way to the common gooi, and we donot want to see our great public works used as puppets in the hands of political intriguers for their individual aggrandizement.

So long as the Intercolonial Rallway is controlled by men who have nothing in common with the people who live by the sea, we have little hope of Halifax being the Winter Port of Canada. Until we have a change at headquarters, a change of men, a change of interests, a change of patriotic seniinent, the Winter Port of Canada will be Portland, Maine. With the Grand Trunk wedded to Portland. and the Ivter- colonial authorities, backed up by the Gov- ernment, either profoundly indifterent or openly hostile, and with powerful vested interests opposed to any change, Halif x has no chance whatever in this strnggle; so the people of Nova Scotia may rest as- sured, that until we have a change of Gov- espment, not a bushel of grain, nor a pound of Western pork or beef, nor a barre! of Canada's flour, will ever come over the Intercolonial Railway fer shipment to Edrope.
