_| Mr.
MARC H 22, 1886.
P. B, Island Railway.
in his report to the} Chief Superintendent of. Government | Railways, says that during the ended 30th June last, the rolling stock of this railway was increased by 1 loco motive, 1 first-class passenger car, 1 second-class and baggage car, 1 snow- plough and 1 flanger. Of the track, six and one-half miles were re-laid with steel rails. A new siding, 268 feet long, was put in at Richmond. Two hundred and sixty feet were added to the siding at Freetown, and it was made a_ through siding. This change was necessary to evable trains to cross at this point. New patent safety switches were placed in Charlottetown and Summerside yards. Twenty-one tons of steel tish-plates were used to replace broken iron plates. Thirteen hundred iron rails, seven steel rail frogs, eleven sets of switch sleepers aod twenty-one head blocks, with switch frames, were renewed. During the year 45,634 sleepers have beenput in,the track. The sleepers oa the whole line east of Alberton are uow laid 2 feet from centre to centre. Nive thousand three hundred and six cubic yards of ballast were dis- tributed duriug the year, and the road was lifted where considered necessary. Thirty miles of ditching was done. Fifty car loads of clay were taken out of the cutting leading to the wharf at Souris, and mavy other improvements were effectec.
The operating expenses, as compared with the previous year, are as follows :

Mr.
Respectiug the revenue account, Coleman says :
“Owing to the fact that the Northern Light,abou mid-winter, became blocked by ice in Georgetown harbour, until navigation was open, the railway lost the tranportation of a large number of passengers and a very large quantity of freighy which was stored at Pictou Landing, to be for warded by the Northern Light, but which was brought direct to Charlottetown and other points on the Isiand by water.”

The Gatling Gun.
In his report to the Minister of Militia, Gen. Middleton refers to the value of gatling guns. He says:
“In the late rising the actual effect of the gatlings was moral, and that only lasted for a short time. The various unofficial accounts of the effects caused by the gatling were very much ex- aggerated and distorted. At Batoche what really happened was this: The artillery, on a rising piece of ground, were suddenly exposed to a tre- mendously hot fire from an enemy concealed in rifle pits in a coulee below, and I had to retire them, and the gatling was advanced and opened fireinte the coulee. At first the rapid fire and the novelty stopped the enemy's fire, but only fora few minutes, when it again grew so hot that the gatling was obliged to retire behind the crest, bm | the loss of a man wounded (who afterwards
ied.) “”
ES I tate tt ae
—The St. John Sun rises to explain that “the previous question if carried compels a vote to be taken onthe main motion before the House and shuts out all amendments. If lost it shuts off the main motion altogether. The question before the House of Commons is the resolution of Lan- dry regrettiog that Riel was hanged. If the previous question is carried, the members must vote squarely on the resolution. If it is lost, they cannot vote on it atall. There is great indignation ou the part of the Opposition members who wish to evade the question, and who believe the previous questien will carry. But to those who dislike, dodging of all sorts, and who believe that a member of the tlonse of Commons should not be afraid to vote on a subject of this charac- ter, it will afford satisfaction to know that a straight vote is te be taken.”

: A STORY comes from Ottawa that whilet Mr. Cameron, of Huron, was making his headlong speech on the Riel question the other night, a French-Canadian in the gallery followed him with such remarks as “i‘hat is correct,” “Just 80, Mi ‘Well put,” “Just what Net ha say,” acd when the hon, member al finished, + Pao acute critic summed ap by ob ae: ls ia all true, but Mr. Cameron eve a word of in” —~Tvronte Mail.

‘The Water Gatti
a
James McDonatp, of the Customs | Department, has received Ahe following letter, and has given a copy to His Worship | the Mayor:
MALDEN, Mass., March 17th, 1886.
DeAR Sir,—-The plan, reports, specifications, ne wspaper articles and letter from you, in regard
o Waterworks for Charlottetown, P. I. Island, were duly received, and furnish much valuable information on the subject, for which I thank you very much, I hope to bring to Charlottetown a gentleman who has built more waterworks than any man in the United States, who is worth about $5,000,000. He is away from Boston but is ex- pected back immediately, when I shail lay the matter before him, *
If we decide to make the city an offer for building complete waterworks, or to supply the city through a private company by the charter already granted, we will push the work rapidly and complete the same satisfactorily.
[ find, when considering this matter with my associates, that the general feeling is that Char- lottetown is a long way off in another country, and that they do not like to put their money where they Saanot see atany and all times just how itis being spent and the company is man- aged; that in settling all land damages, water rights, &c., there would be natarally a disposition to charge more to a foreigner than to a citizen of Charlottetewn or Canada. I am sure there will be a handsome profit from the rates paid ina city of 12,000 inhabitants, and that it will be compara- tively cheap to pipe your city
I have an act before the Legislature of Massachusetts, at the present time, for a charter giving me and my associates the right to take water from springs and build waterworks to supply atownin Massachusetts. I feel assured of a good profit on the investment from the water rates to be collected, or should not ask for this charter or build the works. I do not know of water works in the U nited States, the income from which has, not paid all running expenses, the interest, provided a sinking fund to pay the cost, and a surplus for extensions and additions. It is better for a city to build and own its Waterworks, for itis always a paying investment. But when the city will not build or own the works, it pays for a private company to put in the works.
In regard to supply from wells, a number of cities and towns around Boston find an abundant supply from that source. Swampscott, Quincy, Hyde Park. Dedham, Attleboro, &c. are supplied from wells, the water of which is pumped to w ronght iron reservoirs. Taunton, Newton, Lowell, Lawrence andjWaltham are supplied{‘rom filter basins, so called, near the Taunton, Charles and Merrimac Rivers; but by actual tests it is found that the water runs into these basins from the water sheds above the river level.
From whatlI haveread from the reports you gent me,lam led tothink that a supply from wells will probably be the cheapest and best source for yourcity. Next pump toa wrought iron reservoir to hold at least 600,000 gajlons, and furnish an effective head of 150 feet in all parts of Charlotietown.
If, forty or fifty years hence, a larger supply is} needed than can be had from wells, it can be brought from Gates’ or Curtis’ brooks,
Ican supply the best American pipe and hy- drants at res city, including freight and duty, | for what the city of Charlottetown is paying for the same, but if we do anything in Charlottetown should prefer to patrouize the Canadian manu-

Masonic Visitation
On Monday evening, the 15th inst., the} Deputy Grand Master, Bro. S. W. Crabbe, Bro. G. W. Wakeford, Grand Secretary acting, accompanied by representatives of the Masonic Body of P. E, Island, left the city on an oflicial visitation to the sub- ordinate lodges in the western part of the Province. At Summerside, the members of “King Hiram” and “Mount Lebanon” Lodges ‘received the delegates in proper Masonic order. After the meeting closed, the visitors were entertained by a sumptucus oyster supper at Bro. Me- Arihur’s. On the following day, the Grand officers proceeded to visit ‘‘ Alexandra” Lodge, Port Hill, where they were met by the Grand Master, Hon. John Yeo. After the official business was over, a fraternal repast was giver, which was fully enjoyed by all present.. On returning tothe Port Hill hotel, our host, Mr. Thomas Murphy, gave his guests marked attention, Next morning, the delegates left for Kensington, where ‘‘ Mount Zion” Lodge is located. Here Bro, George Sims and lady received the visitors, where evory attention and comfort were furnished: Inthe evening a number of the brethren from the city arrived by train toe join our ranks. The Grand oflicers paid their official visit, after which they repaired to Bro. Leslie’s to pass a social hour. On the following day a large number of the Kensington Masons accompanied the delegates to Stanley, to interview ‘‘ Prince Edward” Lodge. At the close of the meeting a severe snow storm set in, which prevented the visitors from participating in the collation prepared for the occasion, when they returned to Kensington. On Friday morning, the
whole party took train for County Line Station, where they were met by horses and sleighs, to convey them to “ True Brothers” Lodge, Tryon. Another party of Masons from Charlottotown arrived by train at Cape Traverse to join the dele- gates. When the Lodge closed an excel- lent supper was spread, and a pleasant time spent. At an early hour the re- presentatives of Grand Lodge and friends returned en route for Charlottetown, by way of Cape Traverse, and were safely deposited at the Lansdowne Hotel, where a comfortable night's rest was obtained. Early next morning the departure of the mail boats across the Straite was witnessed with much interest by those who now saw it for the first time. Here we met Captain McEthinney, the Superintendent of the ice-boat service, who fully explained the manner of performing the perilous work. He is thoroughly acquainted with the nature of the duties that he is placed here to see exccuted, and which have already shown such marked improvement. After partaking of a substantial breakfast, sup- plied under the supervision of the very attentive host and hostess of this excellent hotel, we stepped on board the mail special and rolled along the branch towards the city, with the conviction that the week spent among the genial and warm-hearted people of those districts, renewed our youth for many days to come, and aroused a desire to have a repetition of the occa- sion at another early date. We know that we express the sentiments of every member of the delegation when we say that a more enjoyable time could not be experienced, and on their behalf would hereby tender our most bearty thanks for the many cour- tesies extended throughout the entire excursion, by the brethren of the Mystic Tie.—Com. = an?
