A visit to the different packing establish- ments in this city will convince one that pork is among our most valuable staples. The season. which commenced a month or £0 ago, has been very active, and a large num- her of hogs have been already packed, and shipped to Montreal, Quebec, St. John, Halifax,’ and Newfoundiand. — Packers VOL 12.-—-NO. 16, € ORR RESPONDENC FE. W e do not ho a vursilose nape “for the opinions or statements of | our correspondents, Plagiarism. ee T. the Editor of the Exvuminer. Dear Sirn,— On reading Mr. Cummiskey’'s ‘‘Lessons of History” in the New Era, agree that the quality of the pork brought] T was led to the conclusion that it was neat in this season, though good, is not equal to the article brought to market last season. This, nodoubt, is owing to our farmersseliing off their produce, when prices were high last time for such histerianms as Fréeman, Froude and Justin McCavthy>te dek to their lanrels. I am pleased to find: that so formidable a rival in the field of -historieal apring, and notsaving soflicient to feed their stock, and thus bring in a good article this) fall. However, as the season advances, the quality Improves and packers are at present | receiving first class pork, although it is not heavy—the average weight being about 250 lbs. The stock bronght to market in March will, it is predicted, be excellent, as farmers have not shipped a great deal of literature has arisen in the person of Thomas J. Commskey, of Fort Augustus, As a brilliant chronicler of contemporary events, he throws all our Island writers into shade. The ground traversed by his ‘* Lessons” shows clearly that our gifted author from Fort Augustus is a scholar of ex'ensive reading. The pages of Groteor Gibbon may be more learned, but. in their produce and they will therefore have larger stocks of feed on hand. The price paid by packers this season is from 5} to 7}! cents per pound~ the low figure being for | porkers not exceeding 150 lbs. weight, and the high figure for those exceeding 400 Ibs. Stock at present is coming in freely, and packers are in receipt of all the hogs they can econvenienily bandle. Engaged in pork+ packing in this City pictorial power he approaches very closely to MecAulay. But! must not pass too ungualifi- eda panegyric on Mr. Cumnriskey. ‘He has ‘his faults iike other great writers. He appears to have a chroric aversion to acknowl dzivg his obligations to the writers from whom he filches wholesale, Ap en instance of his base ingratitude in this res pert, I might just refer to a speech of hiei’s and the barbarous treatment it re- are Owen Ocnnolly, Esq., A. _ Brijges & Co., William Rattenbury, J. H. Myrick, | and. George Wright, Esqrs. Messrs. | Bridges is packing very extensively. They have splendid facilities for the business in| their establishment on Hillsborough Street, | aud keep constantly employed ten hands. Their average packing, we are informed, during the present season, has been six hundred hogs per week,most of which have ; been shipped to fill orders given before the’ -recent decline took place in the price of pork. Last Friday was their busiest day this season, when over four thousand dollars were paid for carcasses. Messrs. | Bridges also do a heavy business in lard, | They render over fifteen hundred pounds 2 per day, all of which has been can- tracted for by a firm in Halifax.’ Mr. | William Rattenbury, whose © store is next to Tue Examiner Office on Water street has done quite a thriving business this fall. He has already put wp about one thousand hogs, averaging about 250 Ibs each. George Wright, Esq., who has a first class establishment on Kent street, has packed a like number, and Mr. Myrick has now handled over nine hundred and fifty ‘ porkers. Owen Connolley, Es sq-, who has not yet entered into the business so large- ly as the above named gentleman, has already eo about five hundred. hogs. He‘jntends to keep up his average yearly wont “put of pork, which amounts to over , three thousand barrels. | The price of pork abroad has been de- | N.

Large quantities of potatves arrived in Boston during the last week of November. The market was for a day or two glutted, and prices declined five or six cents per bushel. However, prices since advanced and P. E. Island stock is now quoted at from - 5 to 70 eénts. In Charlottetown large lots are coming in for shipment per steamer \** Worcester ’ ta Boston. She will take a full cargo, and the ‘* Carroll” will also take a full freight of potatoes, next week. The prevailing price is 23 cents here. A _ pri- ' vate advice to the St. John Glube from a ‘former resident of St, John, who now lives ‘in Montana says the potatoe crop in the States of Ohio and Michigan has been some- | thing tremendous. The growers are hold- ing on to their crops till the spring, when _they hope to have control of the Boston market. OATS. The market for oats in England continues firm and exhibits a prospect of a rise as the ‘season advances. The prices quoted is from 18s. 6d. to 19s. for cargoes in good jorder. A yood demand exists in the Pro-, vin ces, and prices in Halifax and St. John are qnoted at from 41 to 42 cents per | bushel.

In order to disguise the frand which our ingenious author is perpetrating, he mangles the speech referred to in a horrible “manner, and makes Shirl speak nearly as bad English as himself whenever he ven- tures on an original expressien. This foul a tempt to sink Shiel the orator in Commis- _key the historian, is the most clumsy piece ‘of literary workmansbip that hapever come under my notice. In corrcebor abe of what I here state, I ask the reader to compare the _ peroration of Mr. Shiel’s speech on the , trial of O'Conn: ll. in. 1844, with the con- ' eluding part of Mr. Cummisk ey s historical disquisition. JT belicve, and L.thimk all lovers of English literature will agree with me, thatsome effurt) sheuld be made to prevent those masterpieces of our langnage from falling a prey to the Goths and Van- dals of the day. Mr. Cummisrkey’s literary efforts remind me of what McAnlay said of a purloiner who had made similar havoc with the writings of one of the greatest writers in the English language MeAulay said that the work of this literary. pilferer ‘very closely resembled the architectural workmanship ef those ancrent barbarians, who used the Coliseum and Theatre of)? Pompey as a quarry, bui t hovels with Tor ian friezes, and propped cow-houres on pillais of lazerlite.” Yours, etc., DonzEeat. Ensilage. To a dairying or stock-raising country the questian whether or not the silo system ,is a successful method of preserving , timothy or clover, is of great importance. Mr. Tilson, of Ontario, whose silo was built summer before last, says it is a perfect success—and in his case is no longer an ex- periment. Fodder corn, which is grown very extensively throughout Oxford, is stacked in the field, and becomes bleached and dry before being fed in the wiuter, end it is said loses very much of i's original value. It is claimed that the silo system, by excluding in iarge measure the air, pre- serves the corn in a green and wholeseme state, and isso much more nutritious that cattle fed on ensilaye (en-silo-age) receive more nutriment from one bundred weight of the stuff than from two or three hundred weight of the stacked fodder, Mr. Tillson’s silo is built in the basement of his barn. The walls are of stone to a height of fonrteen feet, and beyond that they are double-boarded for four feet and filled in with sawdust. The area ench sed 'is 24 x 30 feet, divided into three .com- partments, two of them opening through doorways into the third, which opens by a thick dvor into a eloping, cement-floored passage, up which the ensilage may be wheeled to the cattle. The silo contains about 240 tons. The corn tu be siloed is cut green about the Ist of September, cut up by a forage cutting machine and dumped inte the top of the of the silo, where half a dozen men and a couple of horses trample 4! down firmly as it is thrown in. When e silo is filled above the level of the stone wall, a number of board frames, closely fitting to each other, and to the smooth wall of the silo, are laid on top and coy- ; ered three feet with earth.
