It was said that the writ of elec- tion had been sent to and accepted by Mr Horne upon these terms.

These re- movals must be in the interests of, and for the purpose of retaining Mr. Peters and his colleagues in power. On behalf of the Liberal-Conservative | party of this Province, on behalf of every right-thinking, fair-minded man in this | Province, we demand fairplay in the elec tions. Wedemand and require of High Sheritf Horne that he, in all respects, com- ply with the terms of the law, that he take no interference from or permit of no dicta- | tion from any person whomeadcever, from the Attorney-General down. If he cannot do this, if he cannot, since his written | agreement, comply with the law and terms of his oath, let him resign. Let his oath be as it was intended to be—one of sul. stance, not of form.

PROPOSED NEW DEAL. Tuere is trepidation in the ranks of the Government. Something must be done to stiffen up the western wing of the Grand Army. Rumor says that Perry the Noble is to come to the rescue. Mr. ex- Speaker McLellan is, it is said, to give way for him, and he is to run his chance in the expectation of obtaining the Land the present term of the Dominion Parliament Uffice or some other . position. As will soon be up, Perry is willing to sacri- fice himself in this way, and McLellan—is to be sacrificed. What the ex-Speaker and his friends may think of “the new deal’ is beside the mark, provided that the deal be sanctioned by the Attorney-General in this city. -We hear that a conference in re- spect.to the matter was held with his{Czar- ship lastevening. The result has not yet announced. While it is certain that ex-Spealkeer Me- Lellan cannot be elected, it is equally cer- been tain that Mr. Perry is unable to redeem the position, which is as good as lost. Mr. Perry has not strengthened his hold upon the electors in recent years; andthe people ot the Tignish district have determined to elect Mr. Blanchard. PRINCE COUNTY RETURNING OFFICER Ir is stated that Mr. Peter McNutt is not content to be Returning Officer for Prince County, in defiance of the law. This speaks well for Mr. McNutt. That the | Government should have appointed him, the laws despite, is a point to be noted by the electors, We learn that Mr. John Gaffney has consented to act as Returning Officer, and tuat Mr. McNutt, cheated cut of the can didature for Malpeque, contemplates {ill- ing ip the gap at Summerside. ~-In the Annapolis Valley in 1860 the —_ crop was 30,000 bbls.

Many Dead Bodies Hav Been Recovered. Lonpon, Nov. 21. Reports from various points tell of the sad effects of the recent big storm. Be- tween Calais and Dunkirk fifty-eight ves- sels are ashore. Most of these are fishing vessels. There are also two steamers and seven or eight barques along the coast near Calais. Many dead bodies were rc- covered yesterday at noon. Cherbourg sea-faring men say that they never.ex- perienced such a storm. Fears are entertained for the safety of the breakwater at Cherbourg.

ARE YOUR HENS LAYING? It isa fact but little known to people who keep poultry, that the first part of a hen which becomes Dante oo the approach of disease, is the ovaries, or egg producing organs. Excess of fat, expo:s ure to wet and cold, poor condition, shed- ling feathers, improper food, want of ex- ercise, or lack of certain elements in the food to develop the embryo egg, will all produce the same effect and cause the hen to stop laying. It cannot be laid down as an “ironclad” rule, that when a hen ceases laying it is a positive symptom she will soon be sick; but itcan be stated with the utmost assurance that something is wrong or she would not cease laying for weeks and often months. The annual egg product per hen, in this coun- try, ranges from three to eight dozen each. Now, this is by far too small. There is no earthly reason why every hen that lays at all should not be made to lay from ten to fifteen dozen eggs each per year, and continue todo so for several years. We know of } avties who get eggs at that rate ia midwinter in our cold climate. How to get eggs in cold weather inter- ests every person who keeps hens. Mr. Charles Raymond, of New Canaan, Conn., writes under date of March 8, 1887, “I had excellent results from feeding Sheri- dan’s powder to my Seventeen hens. In December they laid 224 eggs: in January, 177; and in February,241. People aroand here who have three and four times the hens that I have, (and who did not use Sheridan’s Powder) = did not get one quarter as many eggs.” I. 8.
