An Avpacious Liz.—‘‘ Mr. Pope has abandoned the contest in Queen’s, on find- ing that he had no chance of being elected, and is now doing his little best to injure Messrs. Yeo and Perry’s prospects in the Fourth District.” The above we clip from the last Summerside Journal. When the editor penned it he knew that he was cir- culating a malicious falsehood. Electors, show your disapproval of such contemptible warfare by to-morrow yoting the square Conservative ticket. At eleven o'clock on Sunday night a fire originated in the barn of Mr. John Seller, at North River. It spread rapidly, and the flames were communicated to the dwelling- house, thence to the warehouse, and thence to the store. The fire assumed very large pro- portions before it was discovered, and all efforts to extinguish it were useless. The buiidings were all burned to the ground. Resides the four buildings, Mr. Seller lost a large quantity of grain, all his merchandize and farming implements, consisting of wagons, carts, mowing machines, ete. His loss is esti- mated at four thousand dollars ; the amount of insurance being only eight hundred. The fire was evidently the work of an incendiary. A store belonging to Mr. Seller was consumed by tire in the same place in December last. Danurnovus Manritiwr APVENTURE OF THE Qvuesn.—Apropos of Her Majesty's review of the ironclads at Spithead, it may be interesting to recall the fact that the Queen can look back upon at least one dan- gerons maritime adventure. ; the Islé of Wight in the yacht Hmerald, while she was yet Princess Victoria, the breeze freshened into a gale, and before the vessel could get into Cowes road the decks were swept fore and aft. The com- ing Queen, however, undauntedly remained a witness of the stirring scene ; when a sud- den squall took the merald aback, and crack went the topmast imme- diately above the cap. The _ pilot, Mr. Saunders, quick as thought, sprang to where the Princess was standing, lifted her in his arms to a more safe position farther aft, and the next mo- ment crash came the topmast down where the Queen had originally stationed herself. sut for the prompt action of Mr. Saunders the Queen would probably never have lived to witness the ponderous procession of iron- clads last week. Indeed, Her Majesty long ago acknowledged that the escape was some- thing to be thankful for, as the pilot, at her instance, was promoted to be a master ; and when the Princess Victoria became Queen of England, he was early invited to Court. Moreover, at the death of Myr. Saunders, some few years after, Her Ma- jesty made considerable provision for his wife and family. ————— nr To Blacksmiths, Lime-purners, &e. COAL!

TION (Limited) beg to intimate to the Public that the price of SYDNEY COAL has been Reduced to $2 per ton of 2246 Ibs., a price which it is hoped will place it within the reach of all consumers, The opening of the new Winning at ** THE SYDNEY MINES” and the fact that the SYDNEY COAL now beiag shipped is all from the DEEP taken in connection with re cent improvements in the process of screening, affords purchasers a positive guarantee of the very superior quality and condition of the SYDNEY COAL now offered for sale. it is a well-know fact that for many years past the prices of other Cape Breton coals have heen regulated by the rates lixed for SYDNEY COAL; but while it is true that other coals, to yet a sale at all, have been pressed on the market at various prices under the current rate of SYDNEY COAT, it is no less true that, taking into account the superior lasting quabties of SYDNEY COAL when compared with other Cape Breton coals, the advantage, both as to economy and convenience, is in favor of SYDNEY COAL, even at a much higher price. The General Mining Association (Limited) regret that they should again have to caution the Public against the attempts being made from time to time to induce them to buy in- ferior coals purporting to be ‘* EQUAL TO SYDNEY,” “SUPERIOR TO SYDNEY,” ete., ete., while some yet more unscrupulous vendors have not hesitated to advertise their coalas SY DNEY COAL (from some designated locality). ll these efforts to sell coal by such means are ouly so many admissions on the part of those who make them of the sranparp character of SYDNEY COAL, It has come to the knowledge of the Asso- ciation that in frequent imstances parties giving orders to truckmen and others for SYDNEY COAL have been furnished with other and inferior coal, The Public are cautioned against permitting themselves to be imposed apon in this way. Every vessei loaded at THE SYDNEY MINES is furnished with a certificate of the cargo being Sydney Coal. Parties purchasing should satisfy themselves by demanding the production of this certificate. The ‘‘ Sydney Coal” is registered under the laws of the Dominion, and unauthorized parties using the Trade Mark ““SYDNEY COAL” are liable to prosecution. CUNARD & MORROW, Agents G. M. A., Halifax, N.
