With the personal qualifications of Mr. Wheatley we are not so well acquainted, though we believe him to be,in a general way, an estimable citizen. As to Mr. Douse, the experience of the corporation bas been that, hcwever worthy of consideration and regard he may be in his private relations» he’is not fitted for public position. The dang er where there are a number of candidates the election of their own particular candidate and thus dividing their strength, the most uadesirable of all may obtain a majority of the votes cast. This danger may, how- ever, be avoided by the friends of the more desirable unitiag to vote for the one or the other who leads the poll at a certain hour—eay at twelve o’clock; and we hope that this plan will be followed on Thursday next. The electors of Charlottetown, as a whole, ought to act in ihe circumstaoces tion,—the shareholders in a bank or steamboat com pany—called upon to elect a director, would act. They cught to throw aside all personal, and private, or outside consideratione, and unite to pre~ vent the election of an unsuitalle man, and to eecure the election of a man fitted for the position. - TO BE NOTED. Mr. Wise voted with the Opposition regarding an investigation of the affairs cf the Prevince and the formation of a new policy. But the rest of the Government, members and supporters, voted against the resolution.

The Federal Government will not part with the trust fuod. Last year, whi'e consenting to place $300,000 to the credit of the Province, they ar,ued that this was only a very small portion of the trust fund which rues to millions of dol. lars and that, theretore, they were no* in- terf reg with the trust. Now they refuse to nullity themeelves by taking an «ction which will be contrary to that argument I is poseible thai having failed io thie de~ mand Premier Greenway will fall back on bis demand of last year for $300,000, but in this case it will remain to be eeen whetherthe Senate can be iad uced to re- | verse their vote of lasr year. pinnate In Summersipk-—-The Bogus Widow was put onin Summerside last night before a rather small, but nevertheless appreciative audience.
