We are pleased to note that the Sti pendiary Magistrate is again receiving sub- scripions for the generous purpose ol providing a good Christmas dinner to poo! families in Charlottetown A hint to our wealthy and <« haritable yeitizens ougbt to be suthcient St. John Telegraph: The Charlottetown Council have unanimously resolved against the imprisonment of a woman for violating the Scott Act.

Victoria, B. C., is prospering like the rest The Col s¢ states that its white poy ati 1s mm 20,000, and that there are enough Chinese and Indians to bring the popula n up to 25.000. The Colonist re Lnd the the growth has not seca DY any neins. Lhe influx is continually goingon, and x3 we have seen, Victoria has been obliged to enlarge its bounds and to increase the number of its dwellings to make room for its increased population. We are pleased to see that \ ic- torians ar t blin to these indications of growth. The number of those who believe that this city has a right futur before it has greatly increased of late, ahd the whiners and the croakers are heard no more.” [his is cheering, for Victoria's advan- taves are many and great; and it is bound grow Victoria, B. C., is contemplating a system af sewerage In view of an under- ' t ¥ , taking §$0 costly, the Colonist says :- ‘It is not enough that the Council that ? undertakes a work of such importance should be honest. Its members must also be intelli gent and capable Honest incapacity may do as much harm as dishonest ability. Cannot a sufficient number of good business men be found ‘in city public spirited enough t sacrifice some of their time in order to put this work of draining the city on a proper footing and nnos& the rate payers elie t tnese men t the WCoun il because they know they are able to do the work ? Cannot all parti slities and preju lices be laid aside for just one election in ler to elect men because they aie qualified to do the city's work? We hope that time wil! not be lost in disputing about trifles, but that at the next Council election good men will be nominated and elected on their merits as busi- ness men The Council that carries a sewer- ag — law must have the confidence of thé ratepayers, Let then measures be taken t& have the ‘ best men’ elected to fill the seats goou to be made vacant in the City Council.’ Herein lies a hint for the ratepayers of Charlutietown. 4 St. John (N. B.) correspondent of THe EXAMINER calls attention to the fol lowing quetation from a letter of the Rev D. Dav ies M ~oreto the Provin ial We sleyan, and asks, **Can this he true? ‘‘In this Province of Prince Edward Island drunkenness is frightfully onthe increase. At least three hundred low taverns are secretly (? dealing out ‘vitriol madness’ in Charlottetown. e is spreading throughout the coun- try with the rapidity and virulence of smali pox Market days have become the carnival On every road from Char- lottetown may be seen on market evenings scores and hundreds of agriculturists making their way home in every stage of intoxication. No road oa such nights is sate to travel. The home, the society, the church, the province, are threatened with such a peril, in such di- mensions, as never before showed itself. ‘Ihe axe isin the air.” Presumably, the fiend is not less inactive in our sister provinces. The hour for an earnest forward move has indeed struck, and struck loudly.’ routes of ba thus, That drinking and drunkenness have been for several years on the increase in Charlottetown and throughout the Pro- vince, is undoubtedly true. But we in- cline to the opinion that the Rev. D. D. Moore’s picture is overdrawn. The editor of the Island Guardian, and denounczer of Father Strubbe will, perhaps, be able to say how far wrung the rev. gentle- man is. Recently, we have been pleased to imagine that drinking was slightly on There was, certainly, in Charlottetown, a notable falling off in the number of drinking men subsequent to the delivery of Father Strubbe’s temperance sermon. We agree with the Rev. D. D Moore that an ‘‘eavnest forward move” is much to be desired. The Scott Act, and strong sympathizers with the liquor dea!era t he aecrease. in the City Council,—this combination is not likely to promote temperance in Char- lottetown. Tokyo Gospel Society.

Among a lot of colts taken to California by Sam Caton, who will winter them there, } is a weanling filly out of Noontide, 2.20}, her sire being Bel] Boy, 2.19} as a three- year-old. As noontide is by Harold, and | out of Moonlight, the dam of Jay-eye-see, | 2.10, it will be seen that this is a pretty | rich pedigree. F. H. Briggs, an enterprising Maine | breeder who is now on a visit to California, has purchased the two-year-old stallion | Warren, a full brother of Sunol, 2.104, and | will bring him to Maine. This will make two brothers to Sunol standing in the} East, the other being Sunolo, that is stand- ing near Clyde, N. Y. Che news comes from England that $80,- | 000 has been refused for the two-year-old | . - { tilly Riviera that won ten races out of the thirteen in which she started this season. She is a full sister to the celebrated racer Sea Breeze, and is owned by the Duchess | Montrose, an eccentric old lady who races | under the name of ‘*Mr. Manton,” and | who last year married a young fellow of twenty-five. | The latest reported offer of a fortune for | a trotting colt comes from Pennsylvania, aud is nothing less than the statement that $36,000 has been refused for the yearling | colt Electric Bell, owned by Miller & Sib- ley, and a full brother to their stallion, St. Bell, being by Electioneer, dam Beautiful Bells. As Miller & Sibley are rich men and have gone into the breeding business | to stay, they naturally declined the offer. In St. Bell they are confident that they have one of the best stallions in the world, and this being the case they do not care to part with his full brother at any price. Mares by Rysdyk’s Hambeltonian are now the dams of sixty-one 2.30 or better trotters, this being by far a better showing than is made by the daughters of any other horse. Ten years ago it was a common say- ing among the opponents of the Hamble- tonian blood that while the sons of the old horse were getting trotters his daughters were not doing anything in the line of pro- ducing speed, but since then the showing they have made completely dwarfs all that has been done by fhe daughters of other stallions, and it is now admitted that at the present day mares by Rysdyk’s Hamble- tonian are the very best property that a breeder can have on his farm. Ic is generally understood that Maud S. will de placed in training next season with s view tu lowering her present record of 2.087, which stands at the head of the list. Since Mr. Bonner purchased Sunol and went to California to look at.the filly he has been much impressed with the ability of Marvin, and uniess a change in the pre- sent plans is made, Maud 8. wil be sent to California in the spring, consigned to Marvin's care. It has all along been the belief of horsemen that if Maud 8S. were properly rated she would beat 2.083, Blair's driving of the mare having been of the haphasard sort, and, as there is no man in the country that can regulate a trot- ter’s speed better than Marvin, he will be given the queen of the turf to handle, after which it is probable that she will be bred to Palo Alto.
