Kenzie government. Fr m the be- ginning of his public hfe in 1843 unt] the union Sir Jchu Macdonald sat for King- ston. He was elected there in 1867. Iu 1872 he had a sharp contest, but was elect- ed by a majority of 131, in the general election of 1874 his majority was cut down to 38. A provest was tied, and he was un- seated, but he was re-elected by the stl smailer majority of 17. In 1878 he was opposed by Mr. Gunn, the same gentle man who was defeated a few days ago,-Mr. Gunn was elected. Four years later Mr. Gunn was re-elected, and in 1887, when he was again opposed by the late premier, he only failed ut election by 17 votes, A pe- tition was lodged against the premier, but was dismissed, the trial judge stating that Sir John’s election had been one of the purest he had ever investigated. In view of the close contests and. defeats which Sir John had faced during the previous twenty years, his trrumphant return last March by & majority of 483 was a matter of astonish mecut vw Nis trends as weil as his oppon- ents. It was generally regarded as largely & personal victory, due in part to the re cognition of the fact that Sir John was fighting his last campaign. But the maguiticent victory of Mr. Met- calfe, which has eclipsed all but one of the l-te premuer’s successes at ihe polls in his own city during twenty years shows that K. agstun was iast year with the vid pulicy aud the old party as well as wich the vid man. o> | A Talk With arabi Pasha. HE HAS AGED MUCH DURING HIS EXILE AND STILL FEELS BITTER TUWARD ENGLAND, A correspondent lately had an interview with Ahmed Arabi, otherwise kcown as Arabi Pasha, the Kyyp tan lesder who caused so much trouble to the British in 1831 and 1882, and who is now in exile in Ceylon. Aravi | Pasha looks much older than he wouid be ex. ‘pected to look. He may he said tv have aged twenty years in the ten years he has psssed in banishment upon this island. He is well housed, well fed, well dressed and weil at- tended He has all reasonable luxuries at his disposal and wanders almost wren and where he pleases But he is a prisoner still. | Arabi Pasha said empioying Gen, Gordon as 'a soldier was a mistake, and that priest ouly should have been sent to the Mahdi. Gen, Gordon’s death, occording to Arabi Pasha, “lies at the door of the foolish British cab- inet.” The Eyypcian exile added: ** Lhe ‘ voices of your wise men have been iike the braying of wild asses in their dealings with | Egypt. ‘It was a sorry day for Egypt when the British soldiers landed upon its soil. Their presence caused the Mahdi to grow in import- dative reform. ance and in might, and enabled him to gather together large forces which he could not otherwise have controlled. England has de- liberately wasted blood and treasure in Egypt, has made France her bitter, unforgiving foe, and has gained absvlutely nothing by so doing. Without British interference we should have had a united Egypt, without corruption, and now that dream is 4 thiog of the past, ao im- possibility in the tuture. ‘*My days are ciosing. I have no heart for further fignting; but,” he said, with heaving ing desire to once more breathe the air of my native land before being gathered to my forefathers,” Arabi Pasha added : ‘30 long as British soldiers remain in re it will be impossibie to reopen trade with the Soudan, Tne Soudanese hate the Kritish and are hostile to the Egyptians because they allow the British to remain in Egypt. With- draw the Bricish troops from Hgyp* and then the Egyptians and Soudanese will mingle together in narmony, and we shall havea united Egept.” ! Socialists Create Trouble. A PEMALE SPEAKER ARRESTED DURING THE PROGRESS OF HER ADDRSSS. For many Suadays past the Socialists at Chelsea, England, have caused much troub‘e to the police by their riv:ous meet: ings Sunday last was no exception to the rule, and 1500 Socialists assembled to hear a speech by Emma Ham, 4 prominent leader of the L.undresses’ Union. The meeting was very disorderly. When the 1 speaker began her address she clasped her arms arvund a lamp-post to prevent the police from moving her. The offis-rs sum moned her to move but she refused, and ,an exciting scruggls betweea herself and a Police Inspector foliowed A gener- fight occurred, and several policemen and civilians were injured. Ultimately Eama Ham and two others who had been par- ticularly violent in their resistance to the police were arrested. The police had w fight their way through the mob to the station. The prisoners were arraigned in the Westminster pvlice court and charged with obstructing the highway and assault- ing the police, and were committed for trial.

SAILORS THE VICTIMS OF VICIOUS SYSTEMS OF INSURANCE STAKTLING CHARGES Some seusstioaal testimony was given before the Royal Labor Commission at London last week by Mr. Piimsoll, champion of the rights and :terests ot sailors, whe gave -tstistics to prove that the loss of life on British ships ts quadruple that, proportionately, of any other nation Mr Plimsli believed that the cause of the slaughter of human hfe would be found io the vicious system uf insurance, whereby iv was frequently a more profitable thing for an owuer to luge his ship -and instan ly kui a score or so of seamen—than to save 1b Mr. Plimsoll caused a sensation by pointing out, and proving by a comparison of statistics, the fact that whenever the value of shipping declines, in periods of mercantile depression, it becomes to the interests of owners to jose their ships. The evidence then turned upon the con- the | ut CIVIC ELECTION. IT’ pursuance of an Act of the General Assembly of this Island, mde and »assed in the fifty- first year of the reign of Her eer Majesty Queen Victoria, Crap 12 intituled: “The City ‘harlottetown Incorporation Act,” ant of the Act amending the same, 55 Vie, Cap 10, In- ‘itul d “An \ct te amend toe City of Charlotte- town [ncerporation Act ” I do hereby give Public Notice thatan election ofa Ma or forthe said City, and of one person to serve as Common Counecilmas in ihe ity Cou-cil for each of Wards Num ers i, 2 and + of said City. and of two persons to serveas C mm a Councilmea in the said Couwcil for Ward No, 4 of sxid City, aud of three persons to serve as Comron Coun-ilmen in the said Council for Ward No 6 n saii ity, being in alla Mayorand Eiz.t Common Couacilwven, repressoting tbe City asf llsws :— For Ward Number One........One Councillor. 7 _ ” Wes isecw One Councillor. ~ = Tiree...,..One Councillor. * " Pe nue Two Conncillors. * Five.......Three Councillors, WILL BE HELD ON Wednesday, the 10th day of dition of the sailors. Abundant proot was at hand of the bad food and poer accom- mudation afforded them. Mr. Plimsoll considered it imperatively necessary that the food provided on all outgoing ships should be regularly examined. Lirge num bers of suiiors die, he averred, from the effects of improper food. The witness ‘“eclared that the present law allowing three feet of deckload should be modified. There ought, at least in loug winter Atlantic voyages, to be no deckload ar all. The penalty should be made sufficient to prevent infringement of its previsions, A ship owner could have a ship built with absolutely no buikheads at all, aud revis d legislation is needed in order to provide for the proper construction of vessels in this respect. Over insurance is a more common thing, said Mr. Plimsoll, than is geversily im- agived In one case last week a ship that could not be suld for £7,000 was iosured for £16 000 Men exposed to the hardships of life on shipboard cannot sustain the vital energies on food that is little better than swill. Not long ago several slips arrived at San Francisco, having lost hali their crews, and with the survivors so wasted by starvation that they had to be taken to a hospital, where oue of the sarvivers died. He had seen meat taken aboard vessels, to be used as food on the voyage, which was in such bad condttion that the men who were handling it held their nuses to escape the odor. He would not ssy that ship owners were particularly anxious to buy carrion, but he knew the practice was com- mon of seeking the cheapest market, and not being too careful in inspection of the stuff furnished, lt was a common thing to scrape meat, and sometimes to pare off decayed por- tions, puting the remainder in fresh brine aud sending it on board for the ship stores. These are but a few of the details reveal- ed by Mr. Plimsoll, who appealed for legis- A Child Carrie’ Off by a Bear. A little girl three years old, named Flem- ming, whose parents live in northern Michigan, being missed one afternoon, her parents tracked her to some bushes in the field, about forty rods from the house, at which point the child’s tracks disappeared and those of a large bear were fund lead- ing into the woods. The horrified father, which had carried off the child, as fast as possible; but night set im, and they were obliged to wait till morning when the pur- suit was re-commenced. In a short time, as the pursuers were passing a swampy spt, they heard the child’s voice calling aloud. They rushed forward, heard a splash ia the water, and soon saw the child standing on « log stretching over 4 pond The bear, the child said, was carrying her across the log and had just jumped invo the water and swam away The bear had nwt hurt the child in the least, but had been caressing in its manner, and had lain down at night with its arms around the little one as if tushield her from hara: The bear had just lost her cub, and seemed to wish to adopt the child in its p!ace, Evicted Tenaats Saffer. JOHN DILLON S APPEAL TO THE PARNELLITES TO HELP BENEFIT DESTIVULE IRISH John Dillon has written a protest agamat the attempts made bythe Parnellites to prevent subscriptious being made te the fund for the benefit of evicted tenants. In Mr. Dillon’s letter appears the last year’s balance sheet of the fund This shows that thera was expended £45 220, the pro- ceeds of Mr. Diilon’s American tour and Irish subscriptions. Mr. Di'lon says that since August last the McCarthyites have furnished £11,148 to the fund, that sum being allthe money received. There are, Mr. Dillon says, 7.500 persons who receiv~ grants, requiring the sum of £3000 monthly. Owing to the lack of funds, some of the grants have not been paid. He concludes with an appeal to the Par- nellites to start a separate fund and to enter into friendly rivalry with the McCar- thyites in relieving the tenants who have been evicted from their holdings, ee the New Kentucky Association held at Lex. ington, Ky., last week, the dates for their pring meeting were fixed for April May 10,inclusive.
