That this factory gets first prize for cheese is ample testimony tothe care be-towed by the farmers in feeding their cattle, as well ac handling their milk, assisted by the fact of their factory being well manag- ed. Another factory which is flourishing was passed at Orwell Cove—the only two met with so far—where at least four or tive should be in operation. Vernon River has some good farmers—the palm is hard to decide—and it may be between Mr. BD. P. Irving and Mr. Owen Sullivan. It is said the latter has netted the highest result per cent., whilst the former’s herd, might fairly compete wi kh Jacob’s berds at Haran. Where all are doing so well, it might be unfair to be more invidious. In the distance 6u high vantage ground is that imposing and splendid edifico— the Catholic chapel of Vernon River, which is a living monumert to the zeal and devotion of its people. Rev. Dr. Doyle is the spiritual director and pastor. He is alarge-hearted and generous man, who not only looks after the epiritual welfare of his flock, but loves to see them in the front rank of agriculture and educational progress. His fine herd of Jerseys is a fair example of what he would desire his parishioners to aim at, and they must have had a stimulating eftect on the dairy interest of this section. Near by is the beautiful residence of Jas. Hayden, Esq., aiso what is known and has been known as Hayden’s mills from time almost im- memorial. Here a!so is the well—-kncw>, residence, shop, &c., of that genial- hearted and true Trishman, George O’Neill, Esq. The reputation of his place for whole-souled hospitality can hardly be surpassed. Mr. O’Neill’s resid- ence Is uow connected by telephone with the city and other telephone siations on the Island. The boon which the Tele- phone Company has conferred onthe Is- land by extending its lines is incalculable. There are quite a number of places, how- ever, where the wires should reach. Op- posite Mr. O’Neill’s is the residence and office of Dr. Collins, who has been here for a few years. Heis quite popular, and has a good practice. Vernon River is a tine place, and its inhabitants are thrifty and comfortable. The lands on both sides are thickly populated, and like the tree which David referred to as being planted near a river, which yielded its fruit in due season, :o itis here. Lord McAulay re- fers tothe love which rivers excite on those who live on their banks, and gives many in-tances--the Nile, the Rhine, the Jordan, the Ganges, &c.,- aud the reader can add many more. And he asks: “Is it that rivers have, in a greater degree than almost any other inanimate object, the appeararce of animation, and some- thing resembling character?” He says, “they are sometimes slow and dark-look- ing, sometimes fiercer and impetuous; sometimes bright and dancing.” “The attachment,” be says,“‘of the French for the Khone may be explained in to a natural sympathy. It is a vehement, rapid stream. It seems cheerful and fall of animal spirits, even to petulance;” but adds, “this is all fanciful.” We must not, however, digress, not even to qaote Lord McAulay. But at the sametime we are reminded that not far from Vernon River, even on its banks, is the thriving settlement of Glencoe, principally inhabited by that noble race of McDonalds, descended from the Glencoe McDonalds in Scotland. However Lord McAulay’s History of England may be valued,it is un- doubted that he went much too far in the cold-b'eoded, perfidious and treacherous massacre of 1692. Further on, at the ex- treme head of the river, is Alberry Plains. Striking out to the north is Avondale and Hermitage. As we go from Vernon River to Ci.arluttetown, before reaching Millcove isa ucat residence and shop kept by Mr. Acorn, who does a thriving business. But before bidding adieu to Vernon River we must not forget the oyster and smelt-fish— ing, now rapidly developing. The oysters of Vernon River have quite a reputation as well as those of Orwell Bay, and a new impetus has lately been given to botb smelt and oyster fishing here. In passing through Millview one is struck by the fice residences of Messre. Sheidow, Edward Grant end Walter Grant, Jas. H. and Peter Bourke, Hynes and Dunphy, &e. The ten-mil—house and Vicinity is now. the scene for triumphs i: agriculture aud the —_ peace- ful arts instead of rum-drinking. This is principally due to Mr. Delahanty, who is a progressive farmer. Mr. McGillivray isa seddler and will supply you with a neat and stylish sett of harness for your trotter orastrong and serviceable one for your draft horae. Mr. Dodds has here a very fine orchard and fruit avd flower garden. You should see his hurdle fence, which has stood the test of fifteen years. It is ten feet high and quite good yet. Mr. Dodds ean give you many points on fruit culture. A road goes south to Cherry Valley and China Point, two beautiful sections where much attention is given to dairying and agriculture. The Irvings, Mc- Innis’s, the Youngs, Murphys, Cranes, McIsaac’s and Mutches are met with. Dr. Beers attends to the physical ailments of the people. A neat but small English. Church shows to good advantage, in its cosy nook. Passing on to Charlottetown, the tannery of John McKachern, Esq, is met with, and the fruit-canning estab ish- ment of Messrs. Jones & McRae is ceen in the distance. This firm deserves well of the farmers of this province for the firm hold they have taken of the fruit canning busi- ness. Their canned fruit is ahead of any- thing imported, and they deserve success. Messrs. Alex. McRae, Edward Wood, and others, are staunch farmers. Albert Bos- well, Esq., is leading in the raising of prize sheep. Messrs. Richards and Lane have beautiful residences. In the distance is Pownal Village, with its picturesqus situ- ation. Its farmers are thriving. Its mechan- ics are industrious, its inhabitants are en- terprising, its clergy are zealous, and the place lovely. Mr. Acorn runs the May— flower Mille, which have areputation for good wholesome flour, oatmeal, ce. J. J. Gav’s nameisa household one.

Unprincipled persons are trying to prey upou and dupe people who are led to ask for kidney treatment. Some of the methods adopted by imitat- ors are as fullows: First —To imitate the size, color and shape of Dodd’s Kidney Pilis and sell them by count. Second—To put them up to appear very nearly the same and to be offered at the same price. Third—To hook on the word “kidney” in naming cathortic pills so as to increase sales of mere physic. Fourth—To givea name so near to Dodd’s that unwary people may be deceiv- ed and think they are getting Dodd’s. Look out for such dodges. When you want kidney medicine you want the best. And ought not to be the subject for any trick. So beware. Our power is measurable by the amourt of truth contained in ovr consciousness and the number of relative facts possessed by our intellect. Why Contemp late Suicides ? Tt is like tempting Providence for con sumptives to ignore the remarkable rem- edy known as Miller’s Emulsion of Nor- wegian Cod Liver Oi’. For any person to die of consumption without trying this remarkable flesh and blood maker, efter ! kupwing of its existence, is suicide pure and simple. All that the consumptive patient needs is new blood with which to battle against the destructive forces of the disease, Millei’s Emulsion provides new blood in abundance. It is a combination of Norwegian Oil and hypophosphites — of lime and soda—a triumph of science. Miller’s Emulsion is the great nerve strengthener and blood maker, and cnres Coughs, Colis, Bronchitis, Scrofala and all Lung affections. In big bottles, 50c. and $1, at all drug stoves.

That was six moyths ago, and there has since been no reappearance of the disease.” T.

That the publica tion of such an excellent magazine may be ventured upon in Canada shows that the literary, artistic and intellectual as well as the material interests of Canala are in ahigh state of development. The letter press and illustrations of Massey’s Magazive compare favorably with thoce of the better clavs of magazines published in the United States. Wenote that the contributors include such men as Profess— or William Clarke, J. A. Reid, R.C. A., E. Pauline Johnson, Charles G. D. Roberts acd T.M. Macintyre, Ph. D. Charles Gordon Rogers’ art’'cle on the Sault Ste. Marie Ship Canal will be eagerly read by those who take an interest in the com mercial independence of Canada. “The Canadian Soo Canal,” the writer remarks, “isthe great and independent waterway between the East and the great Canadian West. Canada in the future will be thor- oughly independent of her neighbor. In- deed, it is probable that American vessels will seek the Canadian lock. The in creasing growth of Canada’s marine ser— vice, the rapid development of her great West, and the consequent increase of com merce, will be stimulated by the posses sion of an independent waterway between Lake Superior and Lake Huron. It may seem premature to refer to what the eftect of the new Canad’an canal has already been; but for the three weeks in Septem- ber following the opening of the cana! an average of about twenty vessels per day, having an aggregate registered tonnage of considerably over three hundred thousand tons were locked through our new Cana- dian canal. These figures speak for themselves, as the canal will, in the future, speak for itself in even more convincing numbers.” ** How Bateese Came Home,” by W. H. Drummond, is a thoroughly Canalian poem which will be popular, and “ The Deserted Wharf,’ by Charles G. D. Roberts, is in our author’s best vein. Upon the whole, Massey’s Maza- zine is well worthy the support of the Canadian people. + —"™ TRADE OUTLOOK, The Toronto Globe reports that “the outlook for the trade in spring good; is fairly satisfactory. Country merchants, it says, are disposed to order more liberal— ly of spring dry goods. Sugars. the Globe continues, are likely to be higher. The Montreal Trade Bulletin says a de- cidedly firmer feeling characterizes’ the cheese market, and stocks here are being worked oif quite satisfactorily at a steady advance in values. Within the past eigit or ten days 40,000 boxes at least have been sold in this market at 8c. to 3c. for summer goods, and at 8 7-8c. to 9jc. for fall. A New York buyer at pre- rent in the city has beea operating to some extent, and a large English concern took quite a line of Am- erican goods, said to be early fall at 8 7-8c to 9c. There have also been sales of finest we-tern fall at Sic to jc; but no more of this class can be bad under 9c, some hold ers refusing to ofter under 9}c. The healthy feature of the present movement js that it is based upon a steadily increasing En, lish demand, which holders here are encouraging as much as possible by keep ing their demands well within export limits, and allowing as few orders as pos- sible to go past them. By this method they have inéuced a good volume of busi- ness, which bids fsir to increase as the season advances; and values hive been their | heir ancient | | | FURNESS LINP. > ake J ° sept ew tegular Fortnightly : ‘ a t y Sailings between and HALIFAX.

Never has the political isolation of Great Britain been more marked. A few years avo Russia declared that her only true triend in Europe was Montenegro. To- day Great Brita cannot claim even so much as anally. Bet and the chief American power a storm of animosity ba3 risen; while the chief power of Continental Europe ostenta- tiously out cf its way to offer her and and the rest of the world look; on with uncon cealed satisfaction at her woful plight. has Vc@h her tierce goes > insults menaces; There is, it is tru’, something magni- ficent in the way the British themselve- face the situation. Is all the world against her? “Let them comeon! We'll fight them single-handed ’ is the response of those to whom memories of Ay ncourt and Plassey and Trafalgar are an ever- | Jasting birthright. Yet such isolation is unnecessary, a8 the British themselves are beginning tu realize. To some extent, it is unavoidable, no doubt, or at least is not to be charged against Great Britain Much of it is due to foreign jealous of British prosperity, growth of British popu- lation, and legitimate expansion of the Briti-h empire. We showed the other day how immeasurably Great Britain bad out- stripped France in population. She is similarly, if not in as great a degree, out- stripping every other Euopean power. She isthe one nation of them all that shows a genuine, prog es-ive, triumphant vitality. France’s population is stationary. Germany and Russia have enacted laws to discourage emigration. But Great Britain sends out as many emigrants and colonists as their total increase, and still increases in her stay-at-home population more rapidiy than any of them. To-day the “meteor flag of England” floats over more than one fifth the land-area of the globe, and over more than one-fourth the entire human race. No wonder her would-be rivals hate her! “The Sun Fire of London,” The above Companies are possessed oj immense resources, and have a world-wide reputation for strict integrity and liberality in the settlement of claims.
