L. P. Tanton. A PROTEST AND SUGGESTION. Sir,—I learn that on Saturday last the couriers at the Capes brought across from Cape Tormentine all the mail matter on hand there with the exception of one tag. In other words the stock on band at Cape Late in January a series of battles took | Torreutine on Saturday last was greatly pace about Insrunz, in which 4700 ( <0 Sede ced, are Known to have been slain. Hundreds of Chinese troops were aleo killed. T he rebels were literally mowed down by quick-firing guns and magazine rifles with which several regiments of the Imperial troops succeeded in recapturing Hungy Chai and might have followed up their success by other victories had not several other regiments of raw troops became panic stricken andrun away.

[n my opinion there ought always to be kept at Cape Tormentine a good supply of mail matter so that on no day can it happen that the boatmen will be unable to cross for want of mails to bring over. | ex- pect that during many days of this month and next month the roads will be ee bac be- tween Aulac and Tormentine that the Lik- eral ma'l-eleighs will be unable to get down te the Cape, and unless a good quantity of maile are detained there to keep the 0ats supplied there will be days when they can- not cross for want of mai! freight,and then there will be a how! from the merciiants and Boareof Trade backed up by a’! the Tory press aad Tory heelers in the country. This can easily be avoided by always keeping a supply of maile on hand at Cape Tormentine. A great risk was run on Saturday and ehould not be repeated. Patriot, MR. WISE’S RETURN. — Sir,—I have been much disappointed that no interview with Mr. Joseph Wise, M. L. A., our Jate smbaeeador to Great Britain aod Ireland, has appeared u the columns of either of the grit deily papers. The Guardian usuaily interviews people, the Patriot ie not far behind its coefrere in such mattere—and they have both inter- viewed lees deserving personages— but be- yond announeiog the fact that Mr. Wise has returned nothing has been said. As Mr. Wise’s trip has cost the country @ snug sum of money the taxpayers have right to hear the result of his journey and to have hie impressions of the Old Voun- try duly chronicled. In anticipation of the papers referred to doing now what sheald have been doneon Mr. Wisw’s ar- rivalI weuld suggest that after the ueual account ef how Mr, Wise was received at the Court of St. James and how he found the Queen and Royal Family, and kis impressions of Lord Strathcona and Mount Royal, that he tell the public ail about his trip in the Gaepesia and the cond'tion of the live stock shipped here“in good order and conditien” when they reached Liverpool, and why it was (ae rumored) that fines were imposed by the Piritieh authorities and upon whom they were im- posed, and whether it is true that the trip of the Gaspesia injured our leland trade with Great Britain. If those ru- mors are untrue they should be contra- dicted, and Mr. Wise as the special repre~ sentative of the Local Government, is the preper person to give the desired infor- mation.
