[ have not the shuhtest doubt that a Sugar factory on your Island will pay, and pay handsomely, if started in the right way and by the right men! From the pecularity of the situation J should judge that a factory on the co- operative plan would have most elements of success, they are the most successful in Germany, where thousands of farmers have grown rich through them. You must be aware that the most import- ant part of the manufacture of Boet Sugar is that Sugar Beet, without these and large quantities of them, no Sugar factory can prosper. If you wish to build up an industry on your Island, begin at the very foundation, the raw material. If the beet-sugar indus- try is a good thing for your Island, it is so a year hence as well, a few thousand tons of Beet supply the first year might ruin the Sugar works forever; but the farmer who has raised from 1 to 5 acres of beets with profit the first year, will gladly raise from 5 to 10 acres another year. if $5 per ton do not give the whole profit to your farmers, and to ihe Island not only the blessings of an important industry, yet it will pay your farmers better than. any- thing else and lay a sound foundation te the future industry. Now, if you knowof any iman or men who will take this matter in hand we are prepared to treat with them if yor will ad- vise them to correspond with us. If any- thing is done I would must likely pay a visit to your Island very soon. J send you a paper with this by which you wil! see how the industry stands here. Yours truly, Ernest Tu. Gennerr. Now, as it is impossible to start large and costly sugar works on « short notice, aud even if you could proeure the necessary funds at once, which is more than improb- able, I would advise you to go to work and raise sugar beets, raise them in large quan- tities and make the fundamental start of the industry. Our company is prepared to contract with some responsible parties for any quantity of sugar beets up to 5,000 tons at five dollars per ton, delivered in Port- land on our wharf. Now, have you any enterprising men on your Island to enter inte such contract? We pay cash on de- livery and supply the party with seed to be paid for with beets. I have not the slight- est doubt every farmer who tries, really can raise on one acre from 20 to 25 tons, here in Maine as high as 40 tons have been raised. But 25 tons I would call a good crop, no more. This will give your farmers $100 per acre, because one dollar per ton will pay the transportation and commission. This is sure money when delivered direct from the field, big and small, the farmer has sure cash and considerable more than an acre of potatoes will give him, and no more work! Should we find there is no trouble to procure large quantities of beets, it will not be difficult to procure the money to erect sugar works on your Island. You say many of our people would take stock if they believed their money was safe. How are they to find out! The best sugar factory in the world cannot make sugar without the beets. Where is the guarantee for the supply of beets ?

The marine losses heard of during the past few days foot up to over one hundred and twenty-five thousand dollars, between eighty and ninety thousand dollars of which will come out of local insurance companies. +--+ —- -°*o-- A Clergyman on Lord Beaconsfield- —— Preaching on Sanday, the 19th inst., at St. Silas’s Church, Ardwick, Manchester, the Rev. Richard Butler, who spoke from the text, “What shall be done unto the man whom the King delighteth to honor ?” drew an elaborate parallel between Morde- cai, Joseph the ruler of Egypt, and Lord Beaconsfield, whom he considered three of the greatest statesmen in the world’s his- tory. What, he asked, had been done in Great Britain for the man who, by God’s grace, had risen from a gentleman of the press tobe a peer of Britain, and almost the king of Britain? By sheer industry, by clearness of intellect, by educating his party, by making himself distinguished in the House of Commons, he had been raised to the House of Lords, raised to the dignity of a Knight of the most noble Order of the Garter, and to the position of Premier, and all this, no doubt, through a blessing from above, for as God blessed Joseph, Premier of Egypt, so He had blessed this extraor- dinary man, who was the highest of ali, higher than Mordeeai, and higher than Joseph. What had he done for his Queen? He had made her Imperatrix of India, and he was now working for her a success- ful peace, because virtually we might say that the Afghan war—if war it could be called--was passed away, and now ‘‘poace with honour” would shine on the glorious escutcheon of him who was the greatest statesmen of Britain’s modern days. That was the honse of God, and the clergy was not to be political, but there were times when these considerations might he overridden by the necessity of upholding the man whom God seemed to be uphold- ing, and whem God seemed to bless with his favoar. He hoped that in addition to the honours that Lord Beaconsfield had re ceived, and in addition to the heart of Britain that loved him and beat for him, a splendid golden wreath might be got up for Benjamin Disraeli by the millions of Britain, by each giving a penny to pay for this wreath of gold to encircle the head of Senjamin Disraeli, in whose career there was not one dishonouring blot. The move- ment, as some of them perhaps knew, had already been set on foot. Manchester would be asked for its peznies, the whole ‘country would be asked, so that a most beautiful wreath of gold should be provided by the love of Britain for the Prime Min- ister. More than that, might his life long be preserved, and might he receive here- after a better wreath, the crown of iimmor- tality. siaeniie-<ciiciiiliaiataitielas The Death-rate of Our country is getting to be fearfully al- arming, the average of life being lessened every year, without any reasonable cause, death resulting generally from the most in- significant origin.
