What- ever difference of opinien may have existed as tothe efliciency of the steamer herself, and | must say that [ believe her to bea most excellent beat fer the purposes for which she is intended.- There can be little difference of opinion, | think, amongst un- prejudiced men, as to her unsuitableness for dutyat Capes Traverseand Tormentine. Be- tween these Capes isa distance ef about 7 nautical miles, a reef about one and a half miles in length runs out from Juriman’s Island near Cape Tormentine. The depth of water between Cape Tormentine and Cape Traverse ranges from six to sixteen fathoms. The water for along way out from both shores in very shallow-- now when it is remembered that the Northern Light draws over-twenty-one feet of water—that the ice literally packs in, principally through the action of the tides between these Capes, the unsuitability fer this route of a sieamer drawing so much water as the | Northern Light must be apparent. I be- lieve it is a mistake to expect uninterrupted steam communication to be kept up the entire winter with only one boat. Lf another steamer along with the Northern Light were placed en the easisrn route I believe that steam cemmunication could be kept up for the whele of the winter season. I am aware that any irregularity in the carry- ing ef mails and passengers is very ennoy- ing to the public, and when the winter steamer happens te be jamed in the ice and unable to cross, people naturally feel like losing faith in the steamer. But it “must not be fergotten that the same irregulari- ties and delays would be likely to eccur through stress of weather and other causes in mid-summer if we had te depend upon only one summer steamboat for the cen- veyance of mailsand passengers. With an- ‘ether winter beat on the Geergetown or leastern reute, i believe winter steam ceinmunication between tho Island and mainland could be kept up with regu- larity and satisfaction. I may say that I agree with the opinion expressed in this House a fow days ago by the Hon. member from Antigonish, that Cape George is mere accessible as a winter port fer the Island steamer than Pictou. Nertheasters pack the ice in so closely at Pictou Island, and the approach to Pictou, that it is difficult to get through it, and this is invariably the cause of the interruptions which have oc- be obviated if Cape George were made the pointof approach on the mainland, as more sea room would be afforded,and consequently the ice would not be found so closely packed on this course as upon the route to Pictou, especially during the prevalence of north- east winds. I think that the Government, . : : - ; } ht to order the Northern : Capes, especially as the experi- | ence of the present winter has shown that} odwork, and it is cenfidently | hex | aiid jand May ; the great majority of then SS OF Guile convinced the | 11iTl@S 28 a Wih-} cord for the present winter, | think Jam jus- | tified in asking the Government to place on the Georgetown reute, an additional boat | of similar dimensions to that of the North- fe ‘The people of King’s County de ;not receive their fair share of steam com- jinunication durng the summer months.

The movement has outatepped j all sectional jealousies or political feelings, and the whele community on beth sides of the river, at Calais and at St. Stephen, seem bound to have the cotten industry es- tablished, to take the place of the waning ‘lumber business. An enthusiastic public meéeting was held at Calais on Friday to further the enterprise. Suicipk.—On the 2nd inst. the body of Peter MacGleggan, of Tay Creek, Nash- waak, N. B., was discovered lying under a waggon, face downwards, with a revolver, having one chamber empty, in his right hand; and there was a large irregular hole through his left breast and the bedy was drenched with bleod ; the unfortunate man bore a reputation from neighbers for sobriety, industry and intelligence. He was 28 years of age, and had been married six months. Domestic troubles are be- lieved to be the cause. it is stated on reliable anthority that ‘the $7th Regiment will leave Halifax in the ecurse ofa few months for Malta, where they will relieve the ist-20th Regiment for- meriy in this garrison and new stationed at Maita and Cyprus, and they prebably be succeeded on the Halifax siation by the 1st Battalion Rifle Brigade under command of H.
