When the Northern Light got caught out in the straits a few years ago,—when her passengers experienced so much difficulty in landing near Murray Harbor,—l am told that if she had been half dn hvur earlier in getting to Cape Bear that evening, she would have got into Georgetown without difficulty. But it was late before the Cape was reached. The Captain would not risk going in through the thick weather that shut down all around, and laid to all night. it es By the morning he was carried a td Oe te ail eile eee posed by Dr. J. T.

Such a disastrous time is not likely to hap- pen with the Stanley. She makes the run so quickly that even if a storm is brewing she can get to port ahead of it. We arrived at Pictou at 9 a. m., and having taken a tour through the town, are now waiting for the express to Truro. Pictou shows marks of progress. The eXtension of the railway into the town makes considerable stir, and business men whom we saw report trade fairly good, altbough the lack of snow interferes greatly with general traffic. One of the most noticeable improvements in Pictou is the large establishment of G. J. Hamilton & Son, where all kinds of bis- cuits, confectionery and other edibles are manufactured and sold. Among the passengors by the Stanle to-day were Hon. A. J. Macdonald, Mr. Mills, of Summerside, Mr. McInnis, ot the P. E. Island Railway, and several others, all of whom were loud in praise of the Stanley and highly pleased with their mid- winter trip across the Straits. The officers of the Stanley are evidently the right men inthe right position. The long experience and caution of Captain Fin- layson inspires confidence, the geniality of Mr. Ryan, the purser, attracts business, Agricultural items. and the good catering of Mr. Jas.
