Don’t the taxpayers hope and pray that these dear Grits may get in again. While attending the Centennial Exhibition during a few deltyhtful summer months, the house rent of the Grit Commissioners cost only a little matter of $1,700. The Grit Com- ly popular in Philadelphia. They always paid their bills like men—out of the public purse. $216.50 for cab hire! Think of that ye careful farmers of P. E. Island, who grudge a dollar or two to spend in railway fares! You helped to pay that nice little bill. not state they wore livery provided at the public expense—and the maids!

Out who spend the millions of the country in light -houses, with the ** boodlers”’ building railways, canals, and public buildings ; and put im these dear economists—who, when the country was in the depths of financial depression and de- ficits were accumulating— rolled up the nice little bill of $39,700 for such necessities of existence as are mentioned in the fore- gving list, and paid it out of the money borrowed from England to make ends raevt . —_——__—. ___-+ eames —— *Keep it Before the Peopie.” We must congratulate the Patriot on last, one piece of genuine good work bearing The table showing the value of goods entered for consumption in having, at presented to ite readers upon the issue. this Province, and the amounts pf duties paid in the several years that have passed since Confederation are interesting ; ; and if the Patriot could prove from them that we pay inthe proportion of $24.10 to $11.11— that would be one good reason for declaring against the policy of the Government. But let us look at the table in the light of the facts and circumstances upon which it is dependent. On its face the table percentage of duty collected was $21.23 in 1876, and 22.64 in 1879, as against 24.10 in 1885—not a frightful increase, surely ! The amount of duty, too, collected at the shows that the Custom Houses in this Province was—ac- cording to the Patriot's tables in: —- eee tess Teak of aes eeeriva es $219,458.07 SO7G.

This is the story the Patriot's table tells —but it isnot atrue stery: Since 1874 the trade of the Province has been revolu- tionized. We now purchase large quanti- ties of goods—dutiable goods, free guods, and goods manufactured and produced in the Dominion—from other parts of Canada. Upon the du able goods the duties are paid at the ports of entry, and we do not get credit for them; upon all the other goods no duty whatever is paid.

Who says the) }ut when asked to propose some improvement, had to confess their inability! The Liberal Conservative cause is now much stronger than at the last local election, notwithstanding the conduct of Opposition canvassers in tamper- ing with the morals of the electors. I feel strongly on the subject, as last Saturday my house was invaded by Mr. James Sutherland, M. P. P., in company with a friend of his, with a large supply of liquor to back them up. Not finding my house congenial to their prospects, these worthies left precipitately, and my fare- | well was mixed up in a storm of curses from | one of the party. Yours truly, Wa. Beer. Hampton, Lot 29, Jan. 31, 1887. The Orchestral Concert. Lasr night Mr. Vinnicombe was deser- vedly greeted by one of the largest audien- ces we have ever seen in the Y. M. C. A. Hall; and we are confident that everyone agrees that the concert was one of the be.t ever offered by local talent in Charlotte- town. Defects and shortcomings there un- doubtedly were-—-for instance in the weak rendering of Mendelssohon’s magnificent march in ‘*Midsummer Night’s Dream,” also in the heavy bowing apparent in sev- eral of the selections, the general uncertain- ty about the highest notes, and the per- haps too conspicuous extravagancies of the leading violin; but as a whole the playing was of a higher order, and, considering the short time the young performers have been learning their instruments, it was little short of wonderful. Especially is this true of Misses Findley, Newbery and McDonald and Master Hyndman,—which last two charmed their hearers by their artistic and true rendering of Wohifahart’s 2nd Study, while the former ladies played with an ease, correctness and expression which called for rapturous applause trom the delighted aud- ience. The encores were well merited; but we think that Messrs. Fletcher and Vinni- combe deserved one for their harinonious playing in the tenth number. If Mr. Flet- cher’s cornet seemed unwilling to respond to the player in his difficult, solo, it did good service at other times during the even- ing. Messrs. Sharp and Strong were in- valuable with their bass viol and ‘‘cello” in the concerted pieces. Mr. Strong produced beautiful effects in the grand pot pourri of **O, Fond Deve” and other airs, and also in Flotow’s exquisite ‘*Good Night” in Martha. That the audience appreciated the refreshing solos of Miss Knight and Miss Newbery was evi- dent inthe hearty applause and encore which were accorded these ladies, Miss Newbery displaying aclear voice of wide compass, Miss Knight fully sustaining her reputation as a special favorite in Sulli- van’s ‘‘ Chorister,”” in spite of the disad- vantages of an accompaniment too lonc at certain times. Mr. Vinnicombe proved himself to be as much at home with the clarionet as with the violin, and it is diffi- cult to say whether he pleased us more by the former instrument or in his violin solo of Gounod’s exquisite ‘* Ave Maria,” with Bach’s accompaniment. Deserving of spe- cial mention was Miss Lewis’ tasteful piano accompaniment. This lady never falls into the common error of making the accompani- ment louder than the solo it is designed to support. Finally, a better concert has seldom been given in Charlottetown, and it seems un- kind to point out trifling defects when, almost without exception, the merit was so indisputable. We are glad to congratulate LMr. Vinnicombe alike upon the accom- plishment of his pupils (with the congenial aid of his older musical friends) and the resumed financial success of the concert. e must say a word about the shameful disorder which always disgraces a Char- lottetown audience during the performance of **God Save the Queen.” It is, to say the least of it, unbecoming for loyal sub- jects to make the National Anthem the signal for the putting on of coats and wraps, and for a hurried and noisy retreat to the doors, while it certainly is a very poor compliment to the performers. There is another aspect of the question which it is not our province to enter upon. Tue Salvation Army has invaded George- town. te GALBRA4ITH’s BAND at the Excelsior Rink to-night. Aut kinds of Boots end Rubbers repaired at Dorsey, Get? & Co's. jan31 tf Carr.

Owinc to the Carnival, the Excelsior Rink will not be open to-morrow (Wednes- day) afternoon and evening. ‘Ticket hold- ers not in costume will be admitted to the promenade free on Thursday evening. sbi Tuer Paris Temps publishes an amusing account of the spread of French fashions among the dusky maidens of Madagascar. The creme of that island, if such a term can be applied to the colored womanhood, are submitting themselves to the hands of! | | Fvench dressinakers, and. notwithstanding | the physica! discomfort. entailed by exchan- ying the loose and scanty native costumes ‘tor tightiy-laeed corsets, high-heeled boots, ‘unaccustomed stockings and a weight of | skirts, worhan-like they bear their martyr- \dom, aiter the manner of their European sisters, with asmile. The men, tuo, are discarding their primitive attire, and are Impending Divorce Suits. LADY BROOKE TO APPEAR IN COURT WITH FOURTEEN CO-RESPONDENTS. The Divorce Court corridors and the club smoking rooms are full of rumors of impending divorce suits, in which the prin- cipals are well-known London society peo- ple. Commenting upon the ever-inereas- ing business of the Divorce Court, Mile. de la Rame (Ouida), who has been in London for a while, caustically remarked that ‘‘peo- ple of intellect are above all law. Mar- riage is only suitable for the lower classes. One story, which may fill a court room very soon, pictures a man looked up to by Eng- land’s millions kneeling at the feet of a man whom he had wronged and begging forgiveness. Another has this same man’s nineteen-year-okl son involved in a disgraceful intrigue with the young wife of an old man who had been his friend. Still a third story, the property of Vanity Fair, claims special attention from the fact that eight co-respondents are to figure in the case. Lady Brooke, it is said, is to appear in court with no less than fourteen co-respondents, the number of these in fashionable circles being ever on the increase, like that of bridesmaids at weddings. It isde rigueur to count in the number the now almost professional co- respondent, the Duke of Marlborough, besides Sir Charles Dilke and possibly a mnore august one. The two latter, with Mr. Gladstone, might have been called at a late prolonged trial with as much presump- tive justice as those who were summoned and appeared, and the one who, being summoned, declined to do so. The Brooke case would have come on ere this had not the Campbells slipped in beforehand with prompt and svccessful alacrity. Lady Brooke, who was a Miss Maynard, is an extremely beautiful woman and quite young. rE + 2 Celina Grenier, 19 years of age, wife of Joseph St. Hilaire, committed suicide by taking paris green in the house of lier parents, on Lafontaine street, Montreal, one night last week. At the inquest, de- ceased’s mother testified that her daughter for a week previous had been very much depressed and cried nearly all day. Her husband would sometimes stay away three and four days and then return home drunk and without money. As he did not work, her daughter worked all the while at what- ever job she could get, and would give her husband what spare money she had. On the evening of the suicide her daughter asked her for some writing paper and ink, then she went to her bedroom, and when her husband came home drunk shortly after eight o’clock he forced open the bedroom door and found his wife lying dead, with a letter on the bed which stated that the un- founded suspicions of her husband and the ill-treatment on the part of certain of her relatives had caused her to take her life. The jury returned a verdict that deceased committed suicide in a state of mental de- pression, caused by grief. DIED.
