Srr,—Since reading ‘‘Spectator’s” letter in last Saturday's issue, I have been mak- ing a few ingniries with respect to the Governor-General’ s presentation of the medal, and [am convinced that it was given ‘to the wrong boy. It was given toa boy having at least nine or ten marks less than the one who should have kad it. Now, sir, is this fair or encourafing?- That medal was offered to the boy making the highest number of marks; and, sir, why was it not given to him ? first class in Latin and French. Now, sir, there should be no distinction of classes, the moreso that when we look back a year or two aud see a boy in the second class in ‘Latin and French carrying off the medal. Please allow me to ask the trustees, or ' whoever had the doing of it, why the pupil | standing highest was overlooked? J re- taain, waiting for an answer, } Yours, truly, ENQuirenr. iThe Other Side of the Question. | Sir,—Since you have freely opened the ‘columns of your paper to temperance cor- respondence, will you kindly allow mea little space to set forth what is believed to to be the settled policy of the citizens of |Charlottetown. Iam moved to make this irequest not only that I may justify the ,course pursued by the citizens, ete., in | reference to the so-called temperance move- ment, but also that I may furnish some sort , of a guide for the future conduct of certain fanatics and enthusiasts. In the first place , be it known to all whom it may concern | that we, the citizens, ete , are in favor of \the free and unrestrained sale and use of all kinds of intoxicating liquors as a bever- age, and are determined that this ancient jand honorable custom which has lent dig- ‘nity to so many of our best families, shall | be handed down to our pos‘erity as one of ; their choicest heritages. So firmly do we , believe in liberty that, so far from reducirg | the number of places where liquors are sold ‘in small quantities, we would prefer, as a imatter of public convenience, to have an , open bar in every house where all who chocse , may drink to their heart’s content. Liberty Sir, we believe in liberty! If our young | men choose the ways of drunkenness why it tis their privilege, and what is drunkenness that such a fuss should be made about it? lIt is our chief glory, sir, our chief glory. We feet proud when we see our boys reeling through the streets; it is an evidence that tour reputution is rising, and a proof that the spirit of enterprise is still among us Deprive us.of any other Iuxury you may, ‘but touch our bar rooms and our drink, ;ing usuagesat your peril. Diminish them- ' Bir; no! increase them. Put them down? no! build them up, and make them a power ‘1a our land. Rumsellersrare benefactors— |bar-rooms are blessings, and we hava lonly seventy-five of them. What a pity, sir, what a ‘pity! In the next place, be it known to all whom it may concern that we, the ‘‘citizens,” etc., do en- dorse the noble effort of our Stipendiary Magistrate to protect the liquor dealers of our city against certain temperance fan- atics, etc., by giving them timely warning of his chief officer’s intended visit of inspec- tion, and thus affording the officer an op- portunity of reporting thet the results of his» victory were ‘highly satisfactory.” ‘Highly satisfactory, Sir. Ha! ha!

Another will shortly take place. time Ww - — Items from Somerset, Lot 27. | The writer having some moments of unoccupied time at his disposal, the idea ‘of penning to THe Examinpr a few items _of some local interest, suggested itself, and, suiting the action to the impulse hasten to comply. , Asa preface, I may lead off by saying that Tor Examiner is gradualiy becoming the favorite newspaper among our pedple here. Its independent tone, fearless main- tenance of right, and firm advocacy of true |Conservative principles, (by the by we're all Conservatives here), all tend to make it a periodical to be read as well as appreciated by the mass of our people; and we bespeak ‘for it a circulation far ahead of anyjournal \in the provinee, if already it has not attain- jed that degree of distinction. | In your iesue of the 20th inst, I4dook mauch pleasure in reading the instructive and very interesting essay on ‘The Cru- saces,’ by our worthy friend, Mr. S. M. Bent, and I feel almost certain that it has proven equally as interesting and instruc- itive to all those who have had the oppor- ‘tunity of giving it a perusal. We hope to jhear from Mr. Bent soon again. The noise which our friend, the Herald, has raised over the appointment of\ Mr. | Perey Pope to the Auditorship of, the \Bavings Dank, has reached even here. | But, the stopper which is being put on pour deserving contemporary’s harangue, through ithe timely intervention of Tae Exawiyer, thas been, and js, productive of a great |amount of satisfaction to those who have |had the opportunity of reading the Herald’s jattacks on the government which made that appointment and the replies in défence of that appointment, made by’ Tax |Examiner. I, es a Catholic, sincerely hope land trust that all matters of a sectarian ‘issue may never be mixed up with our | palitical affairs, and hope the Herald will | be philosopher enough in the future to look at these things in the samé light. The mischief provoked by religious ‘bigotry we never, as a Province, have é¥periencéd, and Heaven grant we never may. With much regret, I have to chronicle the dangeraus i!lness, from inflammation of the lungs, of one of our much esteemed neighbors and friends, Martin Somers, ywhose suffering during the pastfortmight or three weeks, has been so intense, as to make death to him almost a happy relief; , but the attending physician, Dr, Sutherland, has, we believe, pronounced hopes 6f his ultimate reeovery. + eto -~ : oe “. f ~ra. 7 Our crops are looking just too levely for anything.

What an excellent Stipendiary Magistrate we have, O, my countrymen! How admirably he shields our drinking privileges! If some low-born feliow chances to neglect the pup tax, look out for squalls; but if anybody happens to take offence at the proceedings of the tavern and threatens prosecution, why he gives notice that in just three days he will send around the City Marshal on a tour of inspection, and the Marshal is able to report ‘‘highly satisfactory.” Be of good cheer, my fellow-citizens. We have nothing to fear from the Scott Act, or from the temperance people, so long as we can boast of such excellent authorities. In- stead of lessening the number of drinking saloons, as some of you have feared, they will be multiplied; and, perhaps, liquor will get cheaper as the supply increases.

B., by ‘fast trains, without change of cars, is a project that is quietly but surely’ being icarred out. Already one link of the line is |in efficient operation, that froy Boston to (St. John, a fast train having been doing |the journey in thirteen hours or so, which used to take about twenty-three hours. The chief obstacle to having the whole ‘route covered by unbroken connection is a ‘gap in’ Boston, necessitating a tranefer ‘across the city. This is to be overcome by 'a train ferriage from one station to ancther, which, when completed, will not only ‘furpish transpert for passengers without ‘leaving their seats, but also for freight | without breaking bulk. It is anticipated ‘that this will Lecome a popular route to |Evrope, saving two or three days of sea jvoyage. A fast train from St. John to Halifax would be requisite to complete the ‘system, and there ought to be no difficulty about obtaining that. The echeme seems to promise Halifax the winter shipping ‘business, without any question as to Government favor, and increased import- ance as a competitor for summertrade. By the Short Line Railway, between here and St. John, which is being rapidly built, Montreal end western potrts will also be broaght into as direct communication with | the Maritime. ports. — Montreal Witness, ; — o- Bishop Kuudson, of Winteh County, Salt Lake City, has been arrested for plac- ing dynamite under the bed-in which two of his wives were lying and blowing them up.
