Dear Sir,—I suppose; by this time, you are beginning to expect some of those items of news which I made some sort of a promise to try and pick up to send you. You willsee by my address that I have got quite far West; and, so far. I have been much pleased with the country. Indeed, I think H. G.’s advice, “Go West young man,’’ holds good in P. E. J. as much, or | more, than in the neighboring Republic, and I hope some of you Charlottetonians will take the hint, leave the dusty streets of the Metropol:s, to come and breathe, for a short time at least the invigorating air of Cascumpec, Kildare, and the surround- ing country. I proceeded on to Alberton viathe Western Road, and, I may mention, in passing, that | have travelled smoother and better roada, A great deal of the road is of that descrip. tion called corduroy, in going over which you get terribly shaken and knocked about, However, a few miles from Cascumpec the road begins to improve, and when you arrive atithe village formerly called Cascumpec,but now rejoicing in the less euphonious name of ‘ Alberton,’ you get quite a surprise to see such a smart and business like place so farfromthe Hub of P. E. Ll. Really, Sir, I was quite astonished to find such a large village after my long and weary ride over the Western Road. New buildings are being erected, and the place shows every sign of progress and improvement. The religious wants of the inhabitants seem to be well supplied, as I noticed three or four churches belonging, respectively, to the Presbyterian, Methodists and Episs copalians, in or near Alberton; and I was told that the Roman Catholics are about to build a brick chapel. The schoolhouse is quite a neat building, and will compare very favorably indeed with any of the Coy ernment schools in Ch’town. As my time is limited,I must leavea further description for another letter ; but I cannot forbear to give you a short acs count ofa ‘Pe:.ny Reading’ which I attends ed while in Alberton. 1 was quite surpris- ed one evening to hear some one remark “Well, are you going to the Penny Ready I said in my last, the majority of | rum in the | dozen | Let Prohi- being in the | in the | : | held in Hull, yesterday, (Sunday) a resolu- | tion was passed to petition the Governor | heading) in connection wit! the English Church, would come off that evening, Oct. 19th at the Temperance Hall, Door open at 74 ocleck p.m.,&c.’' Here, thought !, will bean excellent opportunity to get an item or two for my friend of the Ex- | llavying reached the Tem- AMINER Office. perance Hall, we found it well filled and, were early, we had quitea After a short duett, ar . } s ?
