Tue Dairy EXAMINER,

SEPTEMBER 27, 1875. ;

neon ee a ee ere _—

The Charlottetown Election.

Tue Hon. Thomas W. Dodd, Provincial Secretary-Treasurer, must appeal to his constituents forthwith. No time should, we think, be lost in bringing his opponent into the field.

The Tignish Election.

We learn that Mr. Peter Gavin (of the firm of Gavin Bros., Alberton), has been requested to offer as a candidate for the vacaney in the Local House, made by the resignation of Mr. Hackett. It is said that Mr. Gavin will likely comply with the re- quest; and that it is more than probable he will beat Mr. Perry or any other can- didate the Rump Government may bring{

into the field. ———— 0 PO

A Wise View.

it appears that there are some thought- fal people in California who take a wise and moderate view of the Chinese problem.

The California Christian Advocate thus ex-

presses its opinion on the subject :—

‘The earth is the Lord’s for all His children to secure the comforts of life in by honest ef- forts and plodding industry. Parts of Asia are overpopulated. Millions in the North of China are perishing of starvation in conse- quence. Here, there are millions upon mil lions of unoccupied acres waiting for the hand of the toiler. Shall we, as a Christian nation, wall them out and leave them to die for lack of bread, instead ofjallowing them to come and by their honest labor cause the wilderness to blossom as the rose ?”

The Government's Movements.

A correspondent of the New York Herald says : —

‘‘It has become known in well-informed political circles that the immediate resigna- tion of the McKenzie Government has been decided upon. The announcement of the formal dissolution of the beaten Cabinet will therefore be officially before the public within a very few days. It is understood that the question of making appcintments has engaged the attention of the Ministry within a few days past, and that the Pre- mier, who so strongly condemned Sir John McDonald because he had made 600 ap- pointments on the very day that he re- signed office in 1874, is very much disin- clined to make any appointments now. It is probable, however, that he will consent to make such appointments as had been prom- ised before the elections.”

(Frow the Toronto Mail.)

It is unfortunate that leading English newspapers will insist upon writing about Canadian matters when they have buta very indifferent acquaintance with them. It was a grievous mistake of the London Times to give prominence to the report that Mr. Evarts had in preparation a proposal for a Customs Zollverein between the United States and Canada. Though it de- voted two speculative leaders to the subject, it is quite clear there was no foundation whatever for its statement. It was promptly denied by Mr. Evarets, and is so absurd on the face of it that no English paper should have been deceived into giving it credence. The Times, of course, gave the cue to the weeklies, and articles on the subject ap- peared in the Spectator, Pall Mall Gazette, and Saturday Review, all breathing a fear that something dreadful was going to hap- pen. A Zollverein meant, of course, the adoption of the United States tariff by Canada, and consequently discriminatory duties against England! Though it may seem a somewhat unnecessary return on our part to the charges of disloyalty which they persist in making against the Conser- vative Party, we feel bound to say that even.the McKenzie Administration would not have done anything so openly declara- tory of hostility to England. We venture, too, to affirm that with Sir John McDonald and his Party in power, no such proposal will ever come from Washington; if we could fancy such a thing possible, we could also fancy quite as vividly the manner of its rejection at Ottawa. The New York Times very plainly sees the folly of the talk in which the English papers have indulged.

As though it has not made itself suffi-

ciently ridiculous over its Zollverein mare’s nest, the London ‘‘Times” sounds a note of alarm over the Protectionist triumph in Canada. Protection has triumphed certain- ly, although there were a great many causes besides for the defeat of the Government. The new Cabinet will soon be in office and not many months shall have passed before it will be called upon to announce its policy. What that will be remains to be seen. But we think we may say to our super-sensitive contemporary that there is not the least reason why it should indulge in any further ecstacies of fear. The colonial tie is not in danger. The object of the new Govern- ment will be to increase rather than to di- minish the volume of trade between Canada and the Mother Country. Of a Zollverein it need not be inthe least degree alarmed. It will find, we have no doubt, that Canada maay be greatly served by her Government re Great Britain being in any way in- jured,

Tne English papers intimate that the Marquis of Lorne and the Princess Louie will visit all the .principal cities ef Canada, prior to taking up their official residence at Rideau House, Ottawa. Correspondents of the principal English papers, including the two great illustrated journals, will follow their Excellencies in their tour,

ee ene

Tun ©cieket match between thé com- bined eleven of the Halifax Garrison and

-1 sooterday, and resulted Dp ven wick- esalt as

this «) in the © ets. This Wits (ULL US byt could have been expected when we take into consideration the fact that the local Club have very few opportunities for practice, and the eleven who played had never before worked together as a team, and had to eon- tend against an eleven who have beaten the local clubs of Nova Scotia by far ereater scores, having made against the Windsor Club 450 runs. The batting of the Garrison was good throughout; Captain Broughey and Lieutenant Cummings made the high- est scores, being 39 and 31 respectively ; but the bowling ef Mr. Dawson was, we think, the chief cause of the defeat of the Charlottetown Club. One of the Garrison, Lieutenant Cummings, holds the champion bat gained at the Cricket Tournament held at Philadelphia during the Centennial Ex- hibition, and several others are also of high standing.

The bowling of Mr. Liddell for the Phoe- nix was excellent. He used his head as well as his hands, and, as will be seen in analysis of the bowling, contributed greatly to keep down the score of the Garrison. The batting of Messrs. Wyatt and J. H. Yeo, as well as their fielding, was the. most noticeable feature in the play of the Phe- nix. It is satisfactory to know that the Garrison team have expressed themselves as much pleased with their reception, and that they will repeat their visit next year. It is only by contending with cricketers of this stamp that our club can expect to be- come experts in the game, and we hope the example of the Garrison, in batting espe- cially, will not be lost upon them. The re- marks of the Patriot in regard to the Char- lottetown eleven may serve to soothe the ruffled feelings of some gentlemen, but we very much doubt if the change suggested would not have led to a more disastrous defeat than that sustained. Two of the men named have had scarcely any practice this summer, and have evinced little inter- est in the advance of the club.

Latest Scientific Story.

The last scientific story is told thus :— The Saturday Review once declared that the greatest benefactor of the human race would be he whoconld enable man to drink an unlimited quantity of wine with- out getting drunk, Such a man has been found. Dr. Bell invented the telephone, but its wonders pale before the telegasto- graph. This is an electrical machine by which the palate can be tickled and pleased by any flavor, and for any length of time, without fear of indigestion or inebriety. By putting soup or fish or ¥ ine into a re- ceptacle connected with a powerful battery, the taste of tlie daintiest viands can_be conveyed along a telegraph wire for miles, and to an unlimited number of bows ciwants. They have only to put the wire into their mouths, and they seem to be eating and drinking. They may get drank or over: fed, but the moment the contact is broken the evil effects pass off, and nothing remains but ‘“‘a delightful exhilaration.” The in- ventor, however, keeps the modus operandi a perfect secret, and wishes to perfect his discovery before he discloses it to the world.

MATTERS UNDER CONSIDERATION AT YESTER- DAY’S SESSION— OFFICERS INSTALLED, Kc,

Bartmore, Md., Sept. 21.—In the Grand Lodge, I. 0. O. F., this morning, the committee to prepare a form of funeral ceremony was continued until the next ses- sion. The report avd memorial resolutions on the late Past Grand Sire Stuart were adopted. The matter of the endowment plan for the membership was recominitted to the Committee, to report at the next session. The matter cf an equitable ad- justment of sick benefits was recominitted, with instructions to report at the next ses- sion. The lodge refused to allow Rebekah degree lodges to hold meetings on Sunday. A revised edition of charge books in the French language was ordered. A charter for the Grand Lodge of Quebec was direct- ed to be issued. There was much debate on the matter of enlarging the rights and privileges Sf Rebekah degree lodges. A semi-annual password was authorized. The daughters and sisters of members above 18 years of age were made suitable candidates for admission into lodges of this degree, and the quorum of a lodge was fixed at seven members, irrespective of sex. The appealof Eliza Goodman from the action of the Grand Lodge of New York, in refer- erence to degree lodges, was sustained. It was enacted that subordinate lodges may readmit suspended members on their own terms. The Grand Lodges of British Co- lumbia, Chili, Switzerland, Utah, Wyo- ming, Louisiana, and the Grand Encamp- ments of South Carolina and Louisiana were not represented at this session.

This afternoon several amendments to the constituiion were printed and laid over. A revision of the installation service of officers of degree lodges was refused. The commit- tee on finance reported the estimated re- ceipts during the ensuing fiscal year as $28,210, and the expenditures $32,048. A strect regalia for the patriarchal branch of the order was prescribed and recommend- ed to the several jurisdictions. The Texas representatives presented a protest against the confirmation by the lodge of the action

session held in Baltimore, instead of Austin, Texas, which was entered on the journal. Several matters of legislation were partially considered and deferred until the next ses- sion. The following officers for the ensuing term were installed: John B. Harmon, of California, grand sire; Luther J. Glenn, of Georgia, deputy grand sire; James L. Ridgely, of Maryland, grand sec- retary; Joshua Vansant, of Maryland, grand treasurer. The grand sire made the following appointments, which were con- firuted : Theodore Ross of Maryland, as-

able of Kentucky, grand chaplain ; Nathan Taylor of Massachusetts, grand marshal ;
