Daniel Davies in a second ‘*T have heard it said stock in the hovel, ‘‘provided the site is | purchased from them,” does more harm than good, as, if accepted, it would compel the managers to take it, when, if free to choose, they might have selected a better | one. Ladmit the force of the objection, and would say to the promoters of the | enterprise, as soon as you have a sufficient number of shares subscribed to siart with, call a meeting, and appoint a committer with power to select a sits. If the ground oftered by the Steam Navigation Co. is considered the best, well and good; if net, Iam sure that shareholders in the company will not ‘act the dog in the manger policy,” but will take some s*ock in tho hotel, even if ed by A‘ my time of life itis a matter of liitie consequence to me wheihor the hotel is built or not; but as a native of the town and one who may claim to have done some- thing by commorcial enterprise in the past towards its prosperity, | would urge upon those who are now taking our place not to le Shipbuilding ica helped the town so much, has passed . oe the site offer- the Company is not = | ' . . | this preject drop through. } : | ! > v away. Therailway has had a_ tendency decentralize tie trade, and spread it over the country, and it is of the first importance that we should make » effort torender the town attree ive for s mm r tourists This shows the right spirit, and con- tains good advice. It is very pleasing i have the project of a first-class hotel t-« Charlottetown favored and assisted b» oae of the age and long experience in I I ! siness of Mr. Davies. If the project allowed todrop a great mistake will loubdtedly be made. We hope those * oO are promoting it will persevere until e -ry obstacle to success is overcome. i.e assurance given by Mr. Davies that ‘1 Steam Navigation Company will not bhmper the Company in the choice of a! ‘e for the hotel will remove an ebjec- t'on which many persons hive to sub- ribing tor stock at this juncture. ihe “erald’s’ Insult to the Irish. Tue Herald quotes THe Examtner’s rem: ks, at the close of the past year, as to the horrid work of the Irish “dynamite f-ctioo,’ under the heading, “THe Examiner’s iusult to the Irish ’’—mean- ing, of course, the Irish people. By so doing, it clearly conveys the idea that denunciations of the torture and assassi- vation of innocent mev, women, children aud animals are ivsultiog to them. A greater wroog was never done the Irish people, the great mass of whom are law- abiding and generous, and regard with horror and detestation “the dynamite faction.” The insult is heaped, in double measure, upon the unoffending Irish people in this particular Province, for the Herald says “a large number” of its readers will not fail to appreciate the language of Tue Examiner. The readers to whom the Herald refers are, of course, its Irish readers ; gives the impression that THE AMINER'S denunciations of ‘‘t Vnamite faction” are pecyli y insulting to them. e“Rerenre that the Herald's Irish readers will regard its implication with amazement and repudiate it with horror. The Island has no _ better citizens than those of the Irish race and extraction; and they will, no doubt, com- pel the Herald—which draws most of ics support from them—to evier into satisfactory explanations. Were we disposed to be severe with our contemporary we should say that the insult of the Herald is intentional and deliberate, for the force and scope of our remarks were so plain that they could uot be misundersiood; but, kuowing that the Herald wishes to stand well with Irishmen, we must charitably con- clude that it took a mean way to try to mar the friendly relations of Tue i-XAMINER and large numbers of its sub- ‘vibers, and had not sense enough to see ‘ue inference to be drawn from its own words. It is, indeed, only on this latter supposition that we can acquit the Herald ‘com being an active sympathizer with the dynamiters. _——— + The Torn Envelope. The Patriot is avgry about this puttier and very much disposed to mis- present. Tue Examiner, it vow says, “first ridiculed-the idea of foul play with the letter being possible—the end of the nvelope had only been ‘worn off by rubbing against the mail bag,’ was our contemporary’s ipsinuatiog. Tu point of fact, Tur Examiner stated at the irstthat, as tbe Patriot aad de- cared the Jetter to have been broken opeu,we could not “conclude that the end ol the envelope wes worn off by rubbing agaiust the mail bag.” We have had, it is true, a good deal ol fun out of the Patriot's unnecessary developments as to the author and nature of the letter ; but.as the Patriot is out ot temper and evidently sees its error, we ‘hali not jus’ more ridicules upon it. now throw aby A very good tobogy in siide bas been added to the many sources of enjoyments our young people have in Summerside.

Johnson, Cedar Rapids, Io a, | says: ‘l have used Scott’s mul-ion in Lob». | cular troubles, with satisfaction, both to patients and myself.’ is true Oddfellowship. But, some will say, why is it a secret society? I reply, it is not, properly speaking, a secret society. It, like ail weli governed families and busi- ness institulions, has its secrets. But these are merely to guard it agaiust imposition. We try to keep all but worthy men out of our institution, but ia spite of our caution unworthy persons will sometimes gain our copfideace, and it is imperative that we have seine test by which our honest brethren may be protected. Then, again, if our ritual were exposed tothe uninitiated, it would lose the charm of novelty and im- pressiveness, which it is desired that all who cross our threshold shall enjoy. Out- side af these points the world kuows all about us. Our work is annually published, and the millions of dollars that the Order distributes for the relief of Brothers, their widows and orphans, are so well known that it is unnecessary for me to repeat them here. But so much as regards our princi- ples. 1 may now be pardoned, as this tezst refers partly to myself, for making a few persona! remarks. I had little idea, ono year ago, when I sat among you at the fes- tive board, that | should occupy the highly honorable and proud position of Grand Master of the Order in the Lower Pro- vinces. or it is an honor for any man to be the head of an Order such as ours, numbering between forty and fifty Lodges and two thousand five hun- dred members.
