Thus brought face to face with the Trade question, we enter upon the consideration of it with great diffidence. It is a question as 1aany-sided and intricate as commerce— with all its involved and varied interests. And knowing that it effects—not P. E. Is- land only—but a country extending west- ward little less than four thousand miles and northward as far as the hardy trapper may pierce its frgzen wilds—a country of rich undeveloped mines and great fertile but still virgin prairies—of timber lands beund- less in extent and fisheries inexhaustible— of enterprising but now unprosperous cities and towns and villages and settlements, in- habited by a people whose interests are our interests, whose destiny is our destiny, we approach it in no narrow, sectional spirit— as though what suited Prince Elward Is- land only is to be considered. We approach it not a3 mere Provincialista, not as mere partizans, but as Canadians—rejoicing that we are members of the ‘‘new nationality” — called upon to exercise the right it gives us and the responsibilities it entails upon us. The puzzling question the people are call- ed upen to solve is, of course, underlaid by principles of general application. That it is best to sell in the dear market and buy in the cheap market, and that the freest possible intercourse between nations is most con- ducive te their materia! prosperity, are pro- positions, the truth of which uo one will deny. It is, nevertheless, clear, that the fiecal policy of acountry must, of necessity, toacertain extent, be governed by the physical and political circumstances by which it is surrounded. Laing—who is des- -eribed as ‘‘ one of the most accurate of ob servers’ —say3s :-—— ‘- Every country has a political economy of its own, suitable to its own political circum stances of position on the globe, climate, sot! roducts, and to the habits, characters, and idiosycrasy of its inhabitants, formed or modi. /. ‘2 . ” fied by such political circumstances.

Company.” A correspondent of the Patriot, jealous of Sir John MecDonald’s popularity, writes a earping letter, in which he complains of ‘the good taste” which suggested the name of the ‘‘ Sir John A. Company.” We fail to see what the Putriot’s correspondent has to do with the ‘‘ good taste’ of the members of the Hook and Ladder Company. And, certainly, the members of that Cuin- pany had a right to call their Company just what they please. If they are prompt at the call of duty, and if they do their duty well, as we are well-assured they will, we do not see that it matters much to the com- munity what name they choose to call them selves. As they are good, true and patri- vi: men, however, Sir Join M:Donald may well feel flattered by their appreciation of hisgreatability and unbounded patriotism.

Artex 4 short consultation last evening the Jadges gave their decision in the rule nist to arrest judgment in the riot case. Theo Chief Justice then addressed the traversers a3 follows :-— You have hal the bene it of excellent Coun- sel. You have been most ably defended. Butthe Jury have, aiter a great deal of dealiberation, found you guilty: Looking at the evidence, I do no think they could hive come to any other conclusion. ‘The trial has been prolonzed ; and at one time it was reported likely to extend until next May or June. But the Judges did not complain. We resolved to do our duty. We have sat here patiently; and have per- formed our duty so far as law and justice re- quired it ofus ia this ease. You must, by chis time, be conscious of the seriousness of che erime of which you have been found: guilty. It is are attended by very great danger to he peace of society. One manor two men may commit a crime ; and the danger to tic community may be counteracted. bine in a breach of the peace, there is, under ordinary circumstances, no means of control- ling them. ‘Therefore the law looks upon the crime of riot as a very serious one; and it is usually very severely punished. IL trust that the punikhment about to be inflicted upon you ners are ! one of those crimes which!

In reply to Howlan, in the Senate, Scott said he could nut promise aid to a harbor refuge at Cascumpec, as the expense was too great. Howlan pressed the case strongly in the Commons. | Pope has given the following notice: | Enguiry of the Ministry whether it is the ‘intention of the Government to take any steps this season towards the constructing o. a railway from the Interculonial Raiiway near Aulac to Cape Tormentine in New Branswick, and from Cape Traverse to the main ine of railway in P. E. L., for the pur pose of placing the Island in continuous communication in winter with the Inter- colonial Railway system of tke mainlana of the Dominion, as required by the terms under which the Province of P.
