C. CHALMERS, Ch’town, June 17, 1882—tf Sunday School at 2 Deposits will be received on interest, and ch science cannot do, from which I conclude he means to infer the Island people and the Island trade are to rest satistied and continue to be thankful for the facilities Service and Sermon every Sunday at 10.30 afiorded for the transit of its productions and passengers to the Mainland through the ordinary channels for export. That we shall follow in the train of transit that was sufficient for us some twenty years ago, forgetting that during this time our agricultural products for shipping have doubled, that the channel cf trade has changed, that our productions which were then forwarded to Englaud are now sent to the United States, to New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, and that the present round- about way exhausts time, a matter of grave consideration in the transit of vegetable productions, as well as entailing changes at any landing en route for Boston. The necessity of affording a more direct and speedy communication to the markets of the continent is fully exemplified in the action of the Government, particularly by Sir Charles. His vigilance and activity has been fully exemplified in carrying out the great railway undertaking to the Pacific, a work which McKenzie could not compre- hend, an undertaking that his Govern- ment succumbed under. Sir Charles under- stands our wants better than ‘‘ Matter of Fact.” His eye viewed our wants, and his understanding has laid down a way that will give usa transport for our goods to ‘market, speedy and profitable, entailing as great advantages to the country at large, as the Pacific Railway is already affording to the Lone Lands of the Northwest. | This fossil, Mr. Editor, is asleep. He is ‘not awake, that’s certain. Perhaps he does ‘not comprehend the nature and the end of the undertakings that are now going on under his very long nose. Is he aware that a railway is now being laid down to Cape |Tormentine? Does he know that our rail- |way is to be extended to Cape Traverse, and that a continuous communication with the railways of the continent and this Island, will be kept up by means of steam- boats plying between the two Capes, of suf- ficient capacity to carry across the straits our whole crop and productions for export? Simultaneously with these undertakings, a bridge is to be built across the river St. | John, over which the trains will pass to the ‘United States. I need say nothing more. I leave you, ‘Sir, and your readers to contemplate the |great advantages it will confer on the com- | munity, when a farmer or a merchant can load potatoes along the line of Railway,and in forty hours be certain of their arrival in | Boston, in good order. Poor old fossil forgets how time is pass- -ing. His letter might have done for the times of the good old Tories, when Mr. ,David Laird was whipper in. But such ‘nonsense won’t do now. Does he really ‘think that the Islanders are going to ship | goods, or that passengers will travel via | Summerside and Shediac or via Charlotte- town and Pictou to Boston, or elsewhere, when the new line that science is laying ‘down sha!l have been opened. Yours respectfully, Rover. A Grievance. | To the Editor of the Examiner. | Dear Srr,—Yon are aware that the 'Teachers of this Island have to teach so | many authorised days according to law, or ‘otherwise their salaries are deducted in proportion. | Nowthe Council Election has been the ‘third held in this Province the last six | months. Teachers who have any stand- ‘ing in the country will probably be anxious ‘not to be deprived of their franchise on , these occasions ; and very often are invited to attend as Poll Clerks in Polling | Divisions. Under existing circumstances ‘they must attend to their daily duties and be deprived of their votes, or otherwise be docked off a portion of their small pittance. ‘[ think the Government should consider ‘this small matter and allow this class of ‘Teachers their liberty on election days, ; \which I think would be to the benefit of ‘any Government.

Wreck of the ‘“ Cedar Grove.” An official investigation is being held at Halifax, by Capt. Scott, R.. N The fol- lowing is the evidence cf A. P. Wilsom :— ‘J was at the wheel when the ship struck. The steering gear worked by steam, The course that we were sailing was west by south by binnacle compass, The ship also had a pole compass. I don’t know whether the pole compass and bitnacle agreed or not. 1 did not observe any com- pensating magnets correcting the steering compass. The captain was on the bridge when the ship strack. He. called ont ‘Starboard your helm ! and I didso, He was considerably excited, I think, . I think it was about three o'clock in the morning when she struck. I left the wheel as soon as she struck. Before she strvék breakers were seen and the captain.immediatelv ordered the engines stopped and reversed full speed ; but the headway she; had car- ried her forwaid till she struck, , All hands were then called to clear away the boats. We then went forward and let go the starboard anchor. We saw Cape Race, but I do not remember what day it was. There were no soundings taken during the whole voyage, but between twelve and two o'clock on the morning of the accident I went with another man to get the heads and deep sea line. We looked for it more than an hour before we found it. The second officer ‘sent us to look for it. Ido not recollect what course we steered after we left Cape Race. It was blowing when the ship struck, bet not very hard. It was very thick. It was raining and was very thick and foggy. After we left Cape Race the weather was pretty fine. All day Wednesday it was clear. I saw the cap- tain taking the sun on Wednesday. I saw the lady passenger only once, and this was just after the ship struck. She was com- ing out of the cabin crying, and I told her not to cry for then thought she would be saved. The compasses worked very well, I do not know any reason for the ship run- ning ashore. I saw the captain about 4 quarter of an hour before the ship went down. He was standing on the main deck, talking withthe first officer and the chief engineer. I think the lady was in the cabin at the time. I left the ship in the port gig. __—oe + Dectructive Storm Predicted. The President of the United States has received a communication frou Professor E. Stone Wiggins, L. L. D., Astronomer of the Canadian Finance Department, of which the following is a copy:— Ortawa, Nov, 27, 1882. To His Excellency President Arthur, Pre- sident of the United States, Washington: May it please Your Excellency—On the 23d of September last I announced through the Cavadian press that a great storm would occur in March next; that it would first be feltin the Northern Pacific, would appear in the Gulf of Mexico on the night of the 9th, and, being deflected by the Rocky Mountains, would cress this meridian from the west at noon on Sunday, March 11, 1883. No vessel, whatever her dimensions, will be safe out of harbor, and none of small tonnage can hope to survive the tidal wave and fury of this tempest. As the wind will blow from the seutheast the planetary foree will be sufficient to submerge the low lands of the American coast, especially those bordering on the Gulf of Mexico and washed by the Gulf Stream, while the air currents for several hundred miles along the east side ef the Rocky Mountain range, owing to the great atmospheric pressure in those regions, will spread universal destruction. The New England States will also suffer severely from the winds and floods. No point out- side of harbor in the whole area of the Atlantic, especially north of the Equator, will be a place of safety, for this will be pre eminently the greatest storm that has visited this continent since the days of your illustrious first President. In view of this event, therefore, | take the great liberty of respresenting to Your Excellency the advisability of ordering all United States ships into harbors not later than the 5th March till this storm be passed. ——_—__ -¢ »ae@ o-— It is estimated that the cost of unloadin cotton at Liverpool and sending it by rai to Manchester, a distance of fifty miles, is about two-thirds of the transport across the Atlantic. In order to diminish the cost it is proposed to dredge the channel of the Mersey, cutting off corners, and to continue a tidal waterway to within tfteen miles of Mauchester, from which point a canal will be constructed with locks. The ficst por- tion of the canal will be tidal, the second semi-tidal, while the concluding section will be above high water. , From Manchester to Warrington the canal will be 109 feet wide. at bottom or 28 feet wider than the Suez Canal. From Warrington down the Mersey the channel will be 300 feet wide. The uniform depth is to be 22 feet at low water, and the upper part 20 feet. The guarant- ors of the project will apply to Parliament for powers to carry it out. The estimated cost is $26,000,000, a The whole sugar productions of the world is estimated at about 3,700,000 tons annually, of which 1,500,000 arc raised in Europe from the beet, leaving 2,200,000 tons from the cane produced in all other countries, Of th’s last amount India, China, Egypt, and islards of the Southern Pacific raise about 700,000 tons, and the balance is raised inthis country, South America and the West Indies.
