We are all, now, thoroughly alive to the fact that the true interests of the Island lie in the improvement of our farm stock. The benefits of breeding after the best kinds are very app#rent in the wealthy districts of Tryon, Bedeque, Margate, etc.; and it is evident that farmers who take care to breed five ani- mals are the most prosperous. There is, consequently, and will continue to be, a brisk demand for high-bred stock ; and the Government have done well in directing Mr. Longworth to obtain the very best that could be obtaived in Can- ada. It is only to be regretted that the lot is not much more*numerous. But the outlay on the Legislative Council, and other useless things, prevents a pur- chase sufficiently large. We require several Clydesdale mares; and many more big bulls and fine-wooled rams. It is a pity that the Legislative Council | should stand ia the way of their pur-| chase. One good bull would be worth a great deal more to the Island than all the Legislative Councillors together—in their Legislative capacity ! Canada’s Crops. Acexts of the Grand Trunk Railway have issued full reports of the crops gathered in Canada. The returus show that the harvesi equai'that of any pre- vious year, and is, in many respects superior, The following synopsis will be of interest to our farmers :— CROP REPORTS, 1882 Aver- below Above age.

In the general retuins, oats seem to be a very heavy crop, and hay has proved uniformly a splendid yield Barley is uvprecedently full, but has been damaged by damp Both wheat and oats on the Island have turn- ed out but poor crops, but as a conipen- sation all other crops seem to be above the average. On the whole, there seems to be much cause for thankfulness, and all classes of the community will feel glad that the labour of the husbandman has received its fair reward. *_<oeS: The Water Question in the Maritime Provinces. The St. John News is taking an interest in the water question, Concerning Fred- ericton it says:— ** Fredericton people who have deplored the insufficiency and inferiority of their water supply must be in good spirits at the progress of the movement to remedy the great evil complained of. The prospect is that in a short time Fredericton’s water supply will be ample and excellent. Pipe-laying in Fred- ericton’s easily worked soil will be light work. Fredericton’s character as a place of residence will be immensely improved by a perfectly good and abundant water supply.” And then the paper turns its attention to the Charlottetown supply, and says:— **Poor Charlottetown seems doomed to do the best it can with its wretched water supply. lt has no noble river like the St. John flowing at ite feet. It has no high placed lakes in its vicinity, like St. John ‘and Halifax, from which to araw ‘its drinking supplies. Its artesian well projects have thus far failed. We fear its brook sources of supply will not amount to much. Its unfavorable position im respect to water supply is much to be re- gretted. Perhaps, however, some day a suc- cessful artesian well scheme may solve the problem.” =_- . Our Eggs. _ The Egg business of the Maritime Prov- inces is assuming very large proportions For the month of September, the transfer book of the Intercoloaial Railway shews the following shipments:— Per International Steamship Co., 52 barrels, 1597 casea and 11 boxes. Per the St. John & Maine Railway, 9 barrels and 228 cases. The total number of cases is 1825, barrels 61 and boxes 11. The past summer's opera- tions in eggs are reported as very good, both for the local and outside trade. The greater part of the eggs that come over the Intercolonial are from Prince Edward Island, and form bat a portion of the ship- ment tothe United States. The Boston boat carries away every week an enormous quantity. This business, well pushed, should form one of the richest resources of our Island. ~*~. Tur Supreme Court has ordered that no proprietor or editor of any pbewspaper or journal shall permit the publication of obser vations, comments or arguments respectiny the evidepos yecently taken in the matter of iin Victoria: Kgyptian New Decrees. Telegraphic news f:.

The commission will consist of nine members and be under the presidency of Ismm! Bey. The second decree orders that a court martial, with eight members, | Reouf Pacha presiding, shall be held in Cairo, and shali give judgment according to the willtary code without appeal in all cases submitted by the above named commission. The third decree directs the assembling in Alexandria of another court martial to iry all cases submitted by the tribunal recently appointed in Alexandria and Tantah The proceedings of both courts martial will be public and the accused will be permitted to employ council. ———a-S ee Safety in Railroad Travel. The October number of the North Am- erican Review has an interesting article on ‘* Safety in Railroad Travel.”’ The facts and figures are very reassuring to the thousands who travel by rail. The num- ber of persons carried every year over the railroads are 375,000,000, of whom but 1.800 meet with injuries and 460 are killed. There were more people killed each year fifty years ago, in Massachusetts, by acci- dents to stage coaches, than there are now by railroads, notwithstanding the increase in travel. la that State, where the statis- tics have been carefully made up for ten years past, there have been carried 490.- 000,000 persons, of which number but 581 were injured, and of these only 132 fatally. — —to- Victoria. The Melbourne correspondent of the Times closes an iateresting letter with the following satisfactory summary of affairs ‘The colony is prosperous, money is cheap, the revenue continues ty increase, the working classes generally are fully employed at good wages, and, .al- though We are receiving no assisted immi- gration, I was informed by an experienced builder yesterday that.at Emerald-hill, a suburb of Melbourne, on the southern side of the Yarra, no less. than. 7,000 houses have been built during the last year, and that most of them are let as soon as com- pleted. I cannot but think that in this statement there is some exaggeration.” **>- Underground Telegraphy. The telegraph system in England; will ultimately be all underground. The plan has been successfully introduced in France, and adine on this plan is being laid from Paris to Marseilles. From a description by Iron, the English journal, it appears that the pipes aredaid ata depth of more than a mater and a half, and chambers for facilitating repairs are placed at about every 500 metres; they resemble large cast-iron caldrons with covers, and have apertures for receiving the ends of the two pipes which they connect. The nuisance of tele- graph poles will not be permitted to exist much longer in go-ahead cities. rt oe On D. C. L.’s. A correspondent, writing to the Mai/, says that ‘‘ there seems to be some doubt among the members of the press whether one who has received the honorary degree of VD. C. L, at a University, ought to be addressed and designated as ** Doctor.” Decidedly he ought not. The honorary degree is merely a compliment paid by the university, in academical form, to distinction of any kind—literary, scien- tific, political, or even military. At the last Oxford commemoration the poet Browning received the compliment of an honorary degree, but nobody would think of calling him Doctor Browning.” sactinlien ceigelesegeel sig ls Berseford Dancing a “Break- Down.” Lord Charles Berseford, the gallant com- mander of the ‘‘Condor,” is, as everyone knows, the bosom friend of the Duke of Edinburgh. On one occasion, when H. R. H.was the captain of the *‘Galateas,” he challenged ‘‘Charlie” to dance a ‘‘break- down’ with him. They stood up before each other so long and danced with such violence that it was evident that the dance would only end with the utter exhaustion of both. The band played several tunes not of a dancing nature in order to induce them to stop, but to no avail. Finally they struck up *‘God Save the Queen.” At the first strain of this air both stopped and resumed their seats. —_- me By CABLEGRAM to Peake Bros. & Co.—Brig ‘* Alpheta ° arrived at London on the 29th inst., 28 days. nde httd.

EGYPTIAN NEWS | SERIOUS RIOTS The Porte Thanks England, Special Dispatch to the Examiner, Lonpon, Sept. 28. It is rumored that Sir Garnet Wolseley will remain in Egypt, pending the settle- ment of the questions arising on the courts- martial for the trial of the rebels; the questions likely to arise after the imme diate withdrawal of the bulk of the British army, and those arising in connection with the re-organization of the Egyptian army under Pacha Baker. Serious riots have taken place in Upper Egypt, and are likely to prove very troublesome to the authorities. It seems that the riots were started owing to the efforts of the different authorities to en- force loyal demonstrations from the people to the Khedive. Two Companies of the 49th Regiment have been ordered to Tantah. The Porte sent a note to Lord Dufferin thanking England for re-establishing order in Egypt, and hoping that England and Turkey would be more closely united on account of the close alliance and friendship of the two powers in the Egyptian erieis.

The contest in the libel suit of McNamee against the Post has resulted in a verdict of not guilty. The suit was one of great interest in Irish circles here. GENERAL CABLE NEWS. Lonpon, Sept. 27, The Times’ Cairo despatch of the 26th says: The reception by the Khedive at Ghezireh Palace to-day was more largely attended than any within the recollection of the people. It is estimated that from 3,000 to 5.000 persons paid homage to the Khedive. He refused to receive Ragheb Pacha, Alhadek Pasha and Marachli Pacha, all late ministers of the Khedive. Cherif Pacha and Rinz Pacha strongly insist upon the necessity of capital punishment tor the prime offenders in the late revolt. Postmaster General Fawcett, speaking at Hackney, said: ‘‘ England has nwo seifish object. Her chief concern is to secure to Exyptians the best government and the greatest amount of liberty possible. The abuse conn cted with the late control will be avoided in future, the Egyptians will pot bave to submit to the injustice of an unduly large part of their revenues being approprix ted by foreign officials ” ' Mr. O'Donnell, M.P. for Dungaroon, telegraphs to the Times from Dublin tha: | serious apprehensions are felt for the health of Mr. E.

Tle | Jeromists declare that the recent duel be- | tween M. Richard, editor of the Pete/ | Caporal, and M.
