From Charlottetown to Georgetown is just about as nice a trip as one can take or two——for one sees a variety of sloping hill and wentle dale, many comfortable and elegant residences, well-tilled farms, an endless classification of stock from scrub to thoroughbred, churches in plenty and saints and sinners of every stripe. All these and much more attract attention, even though the most charming of company may occupy seat No. 2 in the buggy On the whole—after many fears— the crops are fayorable. No doubt the nest speech before the assembled wisdom of the country will thank Providence for this favor, and quite right to do 80, with a hearty amen. Still the farmers deserve some credit, for nature is a co-operative arraigement, as the old gentleman believed who thanked God and the cook for a good breakfast. The Lord of Creation issued mandate to till the ground, and the law has been imperative for thousands of years.

Georgetown, Aug. 24, 1886, A Disastrous Storm. A Victoria, (Tex.) despatch of the 23rd says that a disastrous wind storm visited that city the previous day, and the whole colored section of the city was almost swept from the face of the earth. About seventy- five houses were completely destroyed, and 118 more or less damaged. Trees and shrubbery were blown down, the streets filled with debris and business entirely sus- pended. Loss, $100,000. In Cuare, the storm was very disastrous. In the country the storin was very violent, damaging the crops and destr ying property.

We have mot seen one of them down this way for weeks. I hope they are doing their duty faithfully, but this 1am inclined to doubt, judging by reports from other parts of the Island. When poachers line the shore within one and a half miles unmolested for weeks, we must believe that there is a screw lose some- where. If Americans can get all the fish they want,which apparently they are doing, we will be a long time without a Reciprocity Treaty. This one-sided game is becoming un- bearable. Until such time as we can get a fair deal the existing treaty of 1818 should be enforced to the lecter. It appears to me that the shore machinery is not as eflicient as it might be. There was an American fishing schooner im this har- bor for several days unmolested, repairing her seine-boat, getting smith-work done, shipping crew and fixing up generally. If the Customs ofticer was located at the har- bor, instead of some ten miles up the bay, and empowered to look after such charac- ters, not only in harbor but outside, it would have a very salutary effect. This ‘*Yankee Skip,” knowing that he was liable, appeared very nervous, especially so one evening when the Station Agent was driving along the beach, whom he mistook for the Sheriff. On clearing, he said he in- tended to take fish wherever he could get them, which intention not only he but the whole fishing fraternity appear to be carry- ing into effect. Local fishermen are indig- nant at the existing state of affairs. Yours, &c., PiscaToR. Morell, Aug 20, 1886. Notes from HKiidare Cape. The hay crop in this part of the country has been an average one and the harvest promises to be exceedingly good, At present the fishing vessels off the coast seem to be doing an unprofitable busi- ness. They are continually sailing here and there having their seines in tow, but hardly ever are they seen to be at work, The trout in supply at Round Pond afford the pleasure seekers of Tignish a good opportunity of fishing (7) trout. There has been a change of teachers in the Cape School. Mr. Charles S. Matheson has resigned and Mr. P. Bolger has taken his place. We hope that the people of the Cape will lose nothing by the change. Mr. Matheson enjoyed the good will cf the peo- ple while in their midst. They also feel grateful to him for the services he has ren- dered while occupying the position of teacher. Mr. Matheson is shortly to leave for Toronto to complete hit studies for a medical doctor. The people wish him suc- cess in his studies amd in the exercise of his profession, to whieh he will be a eredit on account of his cleverness and kind dis- position. W. DIED.
