Salmon in Dunk River. To ve-stock our depletéd rivers with fish is an object worthy of encouragement. All will ac mit this. A short time age the Hon. J.C. Pope, if we are rightly informed, donated a pioce of laud on the bank of Dank River, in order that an establishment fo! the breeding of salmon might be erected thereon. This admit, a patriot i¢ act well worthy of the Minister of The establishment

Hanter Davar, Fishery Inspector for thir district—a gentleman well acquainted witl. the habits of fish and with the location o the esiablishment Neither of these gen- tlemen have, we believe, expressed dis- approval of the site. But the Summerside Juurnel is very angry about it; ane shouts (metephoricaily of course) ‘a job,” “a job.” We have only to state that %& honest men, acquainted with them, the facts seem creditable to all concerned.

The Journal says the fish bred in, the establishment willswim away to Miramichi. Even so—so much the better for Miramichi, which is one of our own ports.

Sin A. T. Garr is credited with having at a recent meeting made the statement that for every dellar the Government re ceives as revenue from the sale of liquor, five dollars is paid out by Government on accouns of the same traffic. This statement does away with the common impression that the} liquor traffic is a source of - to Government whatever it may be ta the people. Colonel John T.

The Finance Minister.

(London Free Press.)

Sir Leonard Lilley has taken an amount of trouble to immake himself acquainted with the working of his own law, to see its happy results upon Canadian industries, and note such defects as are within the competence uf legislation to remedy, such as ought to vain iur dim the gratitude and confidence 4 of the poopte. It must be a matter of greai picatnre to him to find that tho success has a mn ail that,in bis most sanguine moments, he vould have snticipated,

(iv cate Lclegram—Independent. )

The latest discovery of the Grit press is vonard Tilley was at one time a drugyist. The proof of this damaging fact is so positive that there is really no deny- ing it. .\Ul that;ean be said in palliation wi the o'femee is that the offender is nota druggist now, and has left the region of ills and powders and tooth paste for the heed ani more congenial fields of politics and finance. The same paper that charges Mr. ‘filles with having beon a druggist once, put. Mr. Mills in the pillory because in the course of his melancholy and unfor- tunate career, he had actually been a schoolmaster —-& mere schoolmaster. If this sort of thing goes on there is no telling where it willend. But, after all, while it is an awit. thing tecontemplate that one of the foremost men in Canada was once a elenguist, und another a schoolmaster, and another masen, the case would have been a great deal worse if they had all been yori las or dodes or chimpazees,

JATL DISCIPLIN £.

Free and liasy Criminals.

Tue discipline at present in vogue in the Queen’s County Jail is a matter now vitracting much attention, and has for a number of weeks veen a loading cop discussion among those interested, i. ¢., the the residents in the vicinity of the imstitu tion. To give our readers an idea of this discipline, we quote the following extract fron the Police Register, which is signed by one of the officers :-—

‘“‘TauRSDAY EVENING, Nov, 13, 1879.

‘

‘A terrible noise in the jail, consisting of singing, dancing and swearing, which cana be heard all over the neighborhood, It is a great anisance to residents if the vicinity. 1% last- ed for over an hour this evening. Crowds coa- gregate at the street corners opposite and keep ip a verbal communication with the prisoners. fhis ia a constant practice. Every evening rrowds gather on the streets to hear the criminals singing, and in many instances en- courage them to sing. The singing, etc., has oega carried on for the last month. The wrisoners have cnt holes in the shutters on the jail windows, and through these holes they shout to passers-by and insult them by using all kinds of bad language.”

The above is a matter which calls fora speedy regulation at the hands of the jail commissioners. ‘The actions ef the crimin- als for the past month are simply outrage- ous, and that they shenld be permitted to continue is a burlesque on crimimal punish-

ment. Has the jailor no authority over those under his charge’? is a question which occurs to every citizen as he passes

the ill-governed institution. The actions of the criminals say he has not any. Are residents in the vicinity of the jail to be continually disturbed by a gang of noteri- ous criminals, who should be cast into solitary confinment for a breach of the jail regulations. They literally defiy the jailor; and not only do they sing, curse and blaspheme, but they heap curses and in- sults on the citizens passing the street.

Two American gentlemen passing the jail a few evenings ago were attracted by the progress of a ‘‘iree and easy concert in the jail.

** What's that ?’ asks one.

‘That's good singing,” replied the other, —** they all join weil in chorus.”

They listened until the conclusion of the aong and then one remarked :-—

“it must be an inebriate asylum; hear how they curse 7”

Presently a police othcer approaches and they agree to ask him what kind of an insti- tution it is, and, addressing the officer, one asks ;—

‘“ Ts that an inebriate’s asylum where al] the noise is ?”

Policeman (astonished) *‘ No! Why, sir, that’s our jail.” gThe gentlemen tangh heartily, and say :

‘Nonsense! Are they prisoners in it?

+ What are they incarcerated for ”

Policeman—'‘Incendiarism, sheplifting, burglary, larceny, rape, drunkenness, ete., etc., etc.”

First Gentleman—‘‘Ah ! Do the authori- ties incareerate those prisoners fer punish- ment, or just for the priseners own recrea- ation 7?’ : ‘

Second Gentleman —“Or to: recruit their health 7”

Policoman ‘‘thinks it is for the latter. hey all seom happy.”

Just now a prisoner commences 2 and two street arabs pass.

First Arab-—({in a loud voice) ‘‘Gay boy, Pete ; give it month.”

Second Arab—‘‘Rise it, Pete.”

First Gentlemen—‘Well, 1 have passed all the tap sheps of the United States; but that jail eclipses the whole of this for ap- parent real criminal enjoyment.”

A NEW GRAIN ROUTE FROM THB WEST.

The Montreal Witness states that the proposed International Northern Railway trom. St. Paul and Minneapolis to Montreal is creating some alarm in railway circles in Chicago and New York. The business of carrying the grain of the West to market is now controlled by two men, W. H. Vander- bilt and Jay Gould. When these giant piutters were in antagonism the public oc- casionally received the benefit of competi- tion, but this has been so seldom and for sich short periods that the Western farm- ers only had time to taste, but to taste in such a way as to lead them to conclude that tho ruinous reductions brought about by a war of rates was the normal condition of things. At present it costs from forty to sixty cents per bushel to carry wheat from Minnesota to the seaboard. The distance is about twelve hundred miles. This would be cut down to two hundred and sixty-two

but their memories will be tenderly cherish. ed by ther many frends. Mr. Dollard was born in Ellsworth, Me., came to this! state and country abort the year 1855, | and was a: tho time of his death abont 35 | years. He had filled for @ eral yesra th;! yesponsible position of superintenden, «f | the logging camps of the Mendocino Lum- |

| The Halifax Herald says :—* Halifax lmerchants are shipping conl to the West 'Tudies and are makiog preparations to do lso ina considerable quantity. Within the vast fortnight the following vessels hare cleared with eoa! for ports in the West In- i dies :—Clifferd, 70 tons cual; A. G. Jones & Co. Aimwel!, 102 tons coal; Bremner \& Hart. Hureka, i100 tons; same firm. Sappo, about 20) tons coal ; G. P. Mitchell & Sons. We learn, too, that Mr. Drum- mond, of the Westville collisry, is making arrangements to load a number of vessels at Halifax with coal. during the winter for the same market. As to the profitableneas of the trade,we are assured it pays better than fish at the present timo, and that a full cargo of cual out with a return cargo oF sugar makes a fairly profitable trip. A let- ter from a firm in Cardenas says they anti cipate doing a large business with the Maritime Provinces this winter.’
