The Scott Act, so far as this city 18 con cerned,is now being pretty rigidly enforced may be said with and the same regard to some of the country districts. There are, however, certain parts of the country, we are sorry to say, where the Act, though adopted by the people at the polis, is al- lowed to remain entirely inoperative. There What is is King’s County, for instance. being done in that County to enforce the law ? Nothing whatever, so far as we can learn ' They are, nevertheless, good temperance men In that part of the Island. It is hoped that if the officers of the law persist in neglecting their duty, law-abiding citizens will take the matter in hand. From a political standpoint, Conservatiues have nothing to gain from this state of affairs. On the contrary, they have much to lose, against The head of the bench on this Island has already ruled that it is not contrary to law to treat as the rum element will be used them when the election takes place. and use liquor at elections, if treating and whiskey drinking happens to be the ** custom of the country.”” Whatever may be thought of such judicial! ruling, the fact that drinking and treating is **too much the custom of the country” will not he Th: custom, therefore should be stamped out; andthe law of the land upheld. questioned. Congregational temperance societies are excellent -in their place, and deserve encouragement. But every besides these the temptation to drink must be removed. Let, then, the law be enforced. _ _—_—o_ « Governor's Pond. We own to a large amount: of sympathy for those who—unable to pay for high priced tickets at the Rink—are prevented, by the Board of Health, from skating in the Governor's Pond. Skatingis,of all the re- creations of our people, the most healthful, a3 well as the most pleasurable. For re- storing the nervous system and making the blood dance in the veins, painting the cheeks of our fair young ladies with roses, and giving strength and vigor to our gal- lant young men, there is nothing equal to the exercise of skating in the open air. The pretence that the filthy bottom of the pond is left naked and bare, in all its dis- gusting ugliness, for the sake of health, is emphatically too thin. But it is stated that some of the citizens deposit garbage on the ice, which adds to the nuisance of the suc- ceeding summer.

At the last meeting of the Dominion Sabinet a good deal of routine work was lisposed of, but it is understood that the question of dissolution was not considered at all. The Manitoba correspondent of the Mon- treal Gazette writes : **Without a doubt the Norquay Government will be sustained at the polls. The Grit party in this country ire in a pitiful state of demoralization.”’ Ministers Foster and Thompson ad- lressed a meeting in Bothwell on Tuesday evening. Both are making a favorable im- pression in Ontario. A somewhat spiteful rit journal, referring to a meeting where several ministers, including Sir John and Mr. White, spoke, declared that the speech of Mr. Foster was the only able address. ut one thing is certain, that no such en- thusiastic meetings have been held for years in Western Ontario as those which sir John and his colleagues have recently addressed. The Ottawa Evening Journal, speaking of the feeling im Ontario, says: ‘* A poli- tician who has just returned from Western Jntario states that if the enthusiastic re- eptions given Sir John be regarded as an index of public opinion, the Conservatives will sweep the province with an increased najority. Throughout the entire tour, the Premier was received with eyery demo»- stration of good feeling, and im sqme cases with an enthusiasm which might almost be termed crazy. The same politician regards Mr. Mowat’s recent action in bringing on he election as an indication of weakness ind anticipates for the Provincial Premier in unfavorable result. In an editorial on the importance of a vote, the Montreal Gazette says : ‘‘There is by far too much indifference among the people as to the political affairs of the country. Personal and sectional feelings are allowed te influence their choice of men when the bruad issues of National Policy und righteous administration are forgotten. Did every elector make it a rule to vote in every contest for the man he thinks most nearly represents his vi-ws, resulting in two ways. ‘Those in whose hands power rested, whatever they professed to call themselves, would feel compelled to a more careful ad- winistration of their trust, and the much- ibused, though necessary, party mpinagers would be less inclined to give way to the temptation that often comes to them to put forward an unsuitable candidate. The franchise is a right on the wise exercise of which by the individual rests the welfare vf the land in which he lives, a fact that, lespite such instances as are referred to, people are tuo prone to forget, though they sometimes are made to suffer for their in- difference. The following facts, which the St. John Sun places before our readers, are highly encouraging. The total receipts of the Government for the first four months and ten days of the present fiscal year are $12,- 399,321, while those of last year, at the same date, November 10th, were 310,- 894,956, showing an increase of $1,504,355. The expenditure for the period was §9,- 532,099. That of the corresponding period last year was $12,593,163. The decreasg is $5,061,056. The sum of $700,000, shortly to oome due for interests, should perhaps be added to the expenditure for this year. This will leave a net decrease of $2,311,- 055. The saving is due for the most part to the fact that there is little or no ex- penditure on account of the rebellion.

It rained hard all day. We anchored at Battis- can Tuesday evening. Left there on Wed- nesday morning at six o'clock and passed Quebec at eleven.

A large lot of Island produce is to be shipped t» St. John’s, and every inch of the space made on the Coban as | a result of the cargo discharged here, will be filed up. Mrs. P. R. Bowers and daughter, and Mr. Wm. Boyle will go as passengers.

Chappelle’s Almanac and Directory Six, —It is generally understood by the business men and other residents of Charlottetown, that 1 am preparing, in connection with Chappelle's Almanac-- which I have published for the last eleven years—a directory of the city—-a second edition of that I issued in 1878, enlarged and corrected. Yesterday, some ** creature”’ with base mind, caused to be circulated a ‘Caution,’ warning the public presumably against my ‘* Almanac and Directory,” (although itis not so stated in the ‘Caution ’) inasmuch as to its contents are alleged to have been purloined* from MecAlpine’s Directory. When my work is issued the publie will be able to judge whether its contents have been purloined from Me- Alpine’s or any other Directory—that they have been or are being | most emphatically deny. I would not take any notice of the ‘Caution, ” which is not signed by any person, and may possibly be only a joke, except that it might interfere with my advertizing patronage. Some six years ago Mr. Teare published a Directory in which he made extensive,if not wholesale, use of mine of 1878. I never made objections, and the public had a good work ; but what publisher, with any regard at all for his character, would depend upon so wholly an unreliable book as Me- Alpine's Directory? It is teeming with errors, gross and ridiculous, among hundreds of inaccuracies I select a few :- W. F. Maurice, Prince Street (should be Morris); F. 8. Moore, Cashier of the Mer- chants of N.S.; Samuel Miller, teacher (should be Lemuel); Conductor Frank Jelly (for Kelly); Wm. F. Maxwell, Sea Captain (should be Staff Commander, R. N.,); and in the advertisement of the Convent de Notre Dame, on the last cover of the book, among the course of studies we find ‘* Dancing and Painting in Water Colors” (for Drawing, &c. ) T may say that my copy, which is in the printer's hands, is all manuscript, and not printed sheets of McAlpine’s or any other Directory altered or amended. So far from being induced by the appearance of McAlpine’s ‘‘ Comedy of Errors” to issue my forthcoming Directory, I may say that so long as twelve months ago—long before Mr. Alpine commenced his compilation —l expressed my intention of issuing it. It is very significant of the meanness and venom of the author of this miserable dod- ger, and the faith he has in the justice af his cause, that these ‘* Cautions” were distributed last evening under the cover of darkness, and that they bear no signature nor the imprint of the office. I may as well add that, so soon as I discover the author or office of publication, [ shall enter an action at law for damages. Yours truly, Tueo. L. CHAPPELLE. Ch'town, Noy. 27, 1886. A Nuisance.

Sir,—My attention having been called to a ‘‘Caution” circulated last evening in this city, 1 desire to say that the copy furnished we by Mr. Chappelle for the Directory which he intends issuing in connection with his Almanac for 1887, is entirely in manu- script, and contains no extracts from Me- Alpine’s or any other Directory.

X. Perrault writes to the Mon- treal Stay an interesting account of what has been done by boats called ice-breakers | ‘in Sweden and Norway. The account is i suggestive of what might be done, not only on the St. Lawrence, but ia bettering the 'winter communication between Prince Edward Island and the mainland. We quote : The city of Gottenburg was the first to lmake the attempt, and so successful and efficient has the steamer been, that the town of Christiana in Sweden and Oersen in Der- mark have had vessels of precisely similar | construction built for their harbors. The vesult lof the going to and fro during the winter of | these powerful vessels is that free communica- tion is maintained between these northern ports and the open sea during the long winter that has httherto practically shut them of from the rest of the world. The relief of the commercial houses and industries of Norway and Sweden afforded by merns of tlre ice- breakers in the Cattegat can hardly be vver- estimated. These vessels are constructed with a series of water tanks fore and aft. Powerful pumps rapidly transfer the water from the after part of the ship forward and vice versa as re juired, The draft forward is much less than aft, so that, when sailing with the aft tanks filled, the bow of th evessel is raised high out of the water. When the ship is brought into action, as an ice breaker, it is _propelied forward, the skilf like bow is made to over- hang the ice ; water is pumped into the fore tanks and the gveat weight and pressure crush the mass of ice up to almost any thick- ness. The total length of this steamer is 134 feet, breadth 35, draft at stern 12. The water tanks have a capacity of 186 tons, 1 i ——— A PS LP 2 Secott’s Emnision of Pure Cod Liver Oil, with Hypeophosphiies the same time increasing the remedial potency of both of these specifics.
