Notices were also posted declaring that the police would not be allowed to land or to remain at Michipic- ton. teases Messrs Morson & Morcan, Cardigan Bridge, have done a large shipping business in oats and potatoes this season. They have sent away some ten or eleven loaded vessels, and bave several more leasing Over three thousand bushels of potatoes were shipped by hem on Saturday last, the price ranging trom 20 to 32 cent, The same firm has shipped about 10,000 bushels of oats already. Candi- gn Bridge is fast becoming ove of the best shipping places on the Isiand, and tle high- est prices can always be got there for fa‘m proauce, The people of that villege, during late years, are recovering from the decline in shipbuilding, aud are turping their attention to tarming. As a natural result, they have better farms, and are becoming more inde- pendent, more alive to the great advantages vy which thy are surrovpnded, and we con- tidently predict that before the close of an- other decade, Cardigan Bridge will rank with Souris, Georgetow *, or Montague, if, indeed, it does not surpass them. —-_>—--- Caledonian Club of P.
