This, consider. ing the state of the ground aud that bowling ie the forte of the Pictou Club, was looked upon as salistactory. Pictou then went in, and after a lively innings of 17 overs were despatched tor 53, A luveheon, provided by the Picton Club, was then partaken of, and the Island Eleven agaur took up the detence of the wickets; and, singu- larly enough, repeated their former seere ot 68, which, added to the surplus of the first innings, gave the Pictonians 83 to Ue and 4 to win, The latter went eagerly to work, evidently ex. pecting, if time allowed, to make up the required number; but the Islanders, whose superior muscle tells in the second inuings, rattled them out for 37, iv the unusually small number of 9 overs. We were happy to notice a marked improve meni in the play of the Pictou Club, both in feld- ing and batting, and we bave no doubt that in a short time they wall be able, if not to reverse the scores, at least tu give the Isluaders a harder struggle for the victory. His Worship the Mayer accompanied the Eleven tc Pictou, and we cannot toe warmly acknowledge the strong interest which, as Patron of the Club, he bas always manifested in the game.

Those leaders pretend to bave great sympathy for the tenantry! — ob! how their bosoms bleed for the woes of the anlortunate peo ple whe drag out a weary life auder the leusehold tenure! But, the shameless hypocrites, they have no more fevling for the tenautry aa a class Their de- ception ia prompted by the grosseat veltishness, than they have for stocks and stones, Phey are, and have been, using toc their own pri- Vale purposes, in their business transactions, the inowey wrong from their dupes in the shape of subscriptions to the League. They may have gel the monary “on loan,” and are keeping it on taterest for the benefit of the Society! They will keep it, They know the Society is, in law, a mere inyth — it has no legal existence — and it has ne earthly power to recover one single pound of the inouey loaned to Mr. George Adams or Mr- Re bert Stewart, of Lot 43. The Society, (or rather the heteregenous multitude that passes under the name of the Society), is based on the principle of repudiation in their dealings with the landlords as regards rent—(and we suppose they would by and bye apply the same principle to the payment of purchase money as well as rent)—and with this principle as the basis of their so-callea or- ganization, how eaay it would be for the leaders to eay to their victims: “If the principle of re- pudiation should hold good in any case, it surely sheuld have a most practical illustration in eur own.” Some of the Leaguers, who are beginning to open their eyes to the nature of the whole Swindle, express surprise at uot seving published an authentic statement of the receipts and ex- penditures of the Tenant League. surprised, We are not If they went to bring astouishment upon us, they will give sucb a publication at once.

We will nut now discuss, at any length, the question, Whether the troops ought to have been sent for at all, and a new Barracks built for them. We way merely observe, en passant, that a little disturbance on the part of a few rowdy Orange Tenant Leaguers, was not, in our opin ion, & sufficient justification for the sending of troops here atthe request ef the local authorities ; and there being no need of a Military foree, there was no need of a barracks. But what we de question is the assumed rigbt of the Government to expend the public money, especially in such a large sum, and for such a purpose as the erection of a barracks, without the consent of the Legis- lature. It is notorious that an ordmary bridge or light house cannot be built, (that is, supposing the Government ‘keep withiv the bounds of the oe — without* re” Legislature first enjoys the privilege of disetasin rangi about the matter i aillite deed. gv tone ture very justly claims the exclusive right to decide upon the necessity of any important public work — the site for it, and the amount of mouey that shall be appropriaied towards it.

TROIS PISTOLES TO GREEN RIVER, Proceeding from above the contlueace of the River Abawisquash with the Trois Pis tules, the line follows the valley of tie tur- mer, with easy grades, for 114 milea; here it passes over a summit of 690 ieet above the sea into the Basin of Island Lake. Eleven miies wore of easy grades bring us to the head of Eagle Lake, 532 tuet above the level of the sea. Llere the lines turn in an east- erly direction, and ascend to Wasan Lake, four miles distant from Eagle Lake. It then curves on & prfect level to the valley of the furadi, a tributary of the Rimouski, and fullowing the valley of the Turadi with a grade ot under 20 feet per wile, it eaches the 37th mile from River Trois Pistoles. At this point the line enters the valley of the Sneilier River. changing its course to a southerly direction; at 45 miles (rom River Trow Pustoles it passes over a water shed to the valley of the*Nurth Braveh of the Toled: river. ‘Three miles more bring it to Echo Lake, where it turns still more to the east, ‘and a rapid descent of 70 feet per mile fur three and a filth miles is unavoidable.” At the 56:h mile from the aturting point the line reaches a point 1 350 feet above the sea. From here to 63rd mile (which finds it 1,360 feet ubove the seu) the grades will undulate easily. From the 63rd mile the line follows a tributary of the Kimouski, and crosses the boundary between Canada and New Bruns- wick at the 65th mile. Two miles turther south bring it to Lake Tiarks, attaining a total elevation of 1,515 feet. “At this point the line crosses the water shed between the streams flowing into the St. Lawrence and those discharging into the River St. Jotn by the Green River.” From Lake liarks the line passes almost on a leyel for 14 miles to the valley of Green River, then descends 24 wiles reaching Green River Lake between tue 70th and 71st mile. Here the elevation is 1.365 feet above tide water. Phen in @ Buuth-eusterly direction following Green River to the Forks at the Slst mile, SURVEYS reaches the north side of the Kiver Sc.

Fom Little River the line continues in an easter!y direction to the head of the Grand Lake Navigation on the Salmon Kiver, which it erosscR at the 19ch mile. For this distance the yrades are undulating and favourable; near the Och mile the line crosses the New- castle River, and in this locality it passes close to several coal mines, where coal of fair quality crops oat on the surface ; at the ]6ch wily the line crosses an arm of ** Tron Bound Cove which will have to be bridged. Alter passing Salinon River the line curves southerly, and passes over a ridge with as- cending and descending grades of about 60 feet per mele to Coal Creck, which it reaches aear the 25th mile, about a mile and a hall further south the line joins op to the next section. The bridging on this section is yery heavy | when its length is considered. The rivers to be crossed and the structures proposed are as follows ; of course the character and dimen- siuns of the latter may be greatly modified on & proper location survey being made. At Lite River the bridze wiil be 45 feet ip height with nine spans, one of 100 feetand eight of 60 feet openings At the Neweastle River the bridge will be 37 feet high and wal have eight spans, ove of 100 fect and seven of 60 feet openings. At tron Bound Cove the bridge will be 23 feet above the level ot the water, and it will nuve three spans each 60 feet. At Salmon R ver it is propose to have a bridge 17 teet in height with nine spans each 6U tees. At Coal Creek a viaduct of considerable Mugoitude is at present consider d necessary ; the height will be about 70 feet, with one span of 100 feet across the ctreaw and eleven OU feet spans in the approaches. Coat Creek To Aroragrr. After ascending from Coal Ureek with a 65 feet grade, the hae follows a seutherly diree- tun over a iavourable country, and reaches Canaan River near the eleventh mile. Canaan River is crossed at Long Rapids and the line there ascends by Porcupine Brook, on grades generally 60 feet per mile to Long's Creek Ridge, which it reaches at the 15th mile. The line then descends to the North Branch of Long’s Creek, which it crosses at about the 17th mile ; then continues in & general southerly direction up the valley of the South Branch, on grades not exceeding 52 8 feet per mile ; it passes over a bridge and enters Chowan’s Gulch a little beyond tne 21st mile. Chowan’s Gulch leads the line by a rapid descent, involving grades of 52 8 and 60 teet r mile, for five and a half miles, to the val- ey of Studholm, Mill stream + following which on undulating grades to about 3l4 miles, it joins the European and North Ameri- can Railway at Apohaqui Station. where the elevation is 1,075 feet; thenee in been spending the publio wouey very freely the same directiva over & mile up the south- i The bridge over the Canaan Ri i ver will be the most custly structure of this section, its this point, the grades are remarkably favour: | reaches the Frederickton upper ferry at 384) | alifes, than they have been able to take. i They are now taking from Charlottetown ‘from 1000 to 1500 bhis.
