THE ASYLUM COMMISSION
Ir is announced, after a lorg and inex cusable delay, that Dr, Conroy and Messrs Benjamin Rogers (Alberton) and D. P. Irving. (Vernon River) are the commiss eioners (oO investigate and report concerning the P. E. Island Hospital for the Insane. The qualifications of these gentlemen will be better judged by their inquiry and report toan by the standard of preconceived ideas’ Dr. Conroy is @ physician of high charac- ter andexcellent repute, and be will, we hope and believe, use his knowledge and judgment as independently of outside influences on behalf of the betterment of the condition of our unfortunate Junatice as he does in the case of the patients committed to his care. Than Messrs Irving and Rogers better representatives of our farming and mercantile interests are not available; and we may hope that the energy and good judgment which they have shown in relation to their private
affairs will be exhibited in respect to & matter in which the honor and character of this province are involved.
Of course a great dea] willdepend npon the scope of the inquiry ; and that will, we presume, be defined by the Government.

We hope that less attention will be devot- ed to the scandals of the past than to the improvemente to be made in the future. The past is beyond recall; what the peo- ple of this Province desire is provision for the future care and cure of the unfortunate’ committed to the public charge. Let the re- ceut charges be tried and the present con~ dition of the institution be discovered, to the end that eseential improvements may te judiciously made.

EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS AT WINDSOR.
A perrer site fora trio of educational inetitutione “could hardly be found than Windsor, Nova Seotia. Situated in the Valley of the Avon, and surrounded by a stretch of beautiful farms, and possessing stores of a very high class, together with many hospitable homes, it gives to thore students who come either to King’s Col~ lege or to the Collegiate Schoo! for boys, or to Edgehill, the echool for girls, all the advantages of town and country.
These three institutions are situsted about sbout half a mile to the east of Windeor,—the first and eecond ou two seperate hills and the third on the valley between. There are maby beautiful spots within a radius cf one to three miles from the town, and to goto any of these makes a most enjoyable walk ordrive. Below the reservoir, from which the town gets its water supply, are the Falls, Theee, though not very high, are nevertheless well worthy of the love which picnic goers bave for them. Perhaps to say that they are a miniature but eubstantia] re- presentation of the Niagara Falls would be the best way to describe them. Then there are the gypsum quarries at Wentworth, Fort Edward and many other historic buildings and placee inand about Wiad- sor, to visit any of which is both interest- ing, instructive and beneficial.
King’s College, or rather the University of King’s College, is, as everyone well knows, the oldest Eaglish university in Canada. In it have been educated, years gone by, many of Canada’s most famous men. Tie staff of professors is at present a very efficient one, and students either in the schools of Arts, Kagineeriag or Science have a good chance in their re- spective branches. Of course the college has not, and does not claim to have, euch facilities for illus‘ration as have large in- stitutions as McGill, Harvard and the like; but it claims, and justly, that this loss is more than made up by the personal supervision that the professors have over students, by the lack of the distractions which are bound to exist for young and growing minds in a largecity, by the ad- vantages of always having fresh air to breathe and a beautiful country to keep the most industrious bookworm from spoiling himself for futare usefulness, and by the residential system which, in iteelf i3 an immense advantage,

One of the chief educational men in Halifax, and a wel! kaowa and recogaiz:d authority in all educational wmatters, soon after Miss Lefroy had become the Lady Principal of Eijgel.ill, was heard to remark that he considered the system used at the school to be the best of its kind in the Maritime Provinces. That this opinion was well founded could easily be believed by anyone who witnessed the closing exercises of the schoo! last June. In the first piace, the young ladies had the look of health and happiness about them which betokened wholesome food and suf- ficient outdoor exercise. Then, in the s:hoolexaminatioas most creditable work had been done, Perhaps the best indica- tion of this was the announcement that ten of the senior girle had passed the senior local examination of King’s College, and had thus been admitted as associates in arts in that university. This exami- j nation covers about as much ground as

that which is called * Responsions ” and which is taken near the ead of the second year of the ordinary arts course. One of the young ladies who passed thie exami- nation was Miss Marjorie Stewart, of Stratbgartney, in this Province. The work required for this is general and com
prehensive, and yet must be done thor- oughly. Miss Lefroy, who was for many yeare connected with the Cheltenbam Ladies College, is assisted in her work by a staff of nine or ten resident lady gover- nesses,
Tine Collegiate School, far toys, is aleo ‘na flourishing condition. Mr. Hand- somebody, who has been head master for two yearr, has proved himee!f te be psins- taking and thoroughly efficient. The diecip!ine is excellent, and boys attending the echoo] are well taken care of both physically and mentally. Not a day passes without regular exerciee in the gympasium under the supervision of Sergeant Cunniogham,a skilled instructor- Ther, in the autumn, football is played and in the Spring cricket,—and in these games great interest is taken, Last autumn the Collegiate School team won nearly al! the matches it played against outside teains, notwithetandiag the fact that these were, in nearly every instance, composed of much larger andolder boys. Perhaps most praise should be given to the success which the echool is having in pursuing its main Object, viz, of fitting and preparing boys either for the universities or fer entering upon the study of any profession or business, Good work was done last June both in the examinations for entrance to King’s College and to the Royal Military College at Kingston,

OUR JAILS AND POORHOUSE.
Tne Examiner, several weeks ago, ex. preesed the hope that the commissioners in the asylum matter would be authorized to report upon the whole subject of the reform and improved management of our Provincial institutions, including the jaile andthe poorhouse. These institutions are antiquated, expensive and the reverse of creditable to Prince Edward Island. But there has been no intimation that the Farqubareon Administration will adopt a reasonable and practical suggestion. The season 16 now 60 faradvanced that it will be impossible to act upon the report of the Commissicners ia time to afford relief for our unfortunate lunatics before the cold winter sets in. Consequently there wil! be ample time to go into the whole matter and to formulate a general scheme of im. provement applicable to all,as well as to one of the public institutions referred to before action can be taken next spring.

SIR, RICHARD—NOT IN IT.
At the beginning ot his Toronto speech Sir Richard Cartwright said:
“Mr. President, there is an old saying that onlookers,at any rate if those onlookers know anything of the game, see more than thoee who play. (Laughter.) Now fora period of some three years back I have myself been ratber a badly crippled man, and in consequence have been to a certain extent occupyiog the role of onlooker.’’
From this remark of his it hae been fairly ;infrerred by the St. John Sun that “whatever Sir Richard may say in exten. uation of the acts of his colleagues, it is evident that he desires the public to under~
stand that he is not himself in “the game.” The St. John Sun adds: “No mistake need be made in the future. Hon-
est men have little to hope from Sir Richard. He is an “onlooker.” He sees the game; but it is Mr. Tarte, Mr. Blair and Mr. Sifton. with the Pacauds, the Prestons, the Farrs, and the whole “ busi- ness is business,” “keep your man low” graternity, who play it.

PO ULTRY FATTENING
Some persons had begun to fear that the idea of having experimental poultry fatteu- ing stations was not to be realized thig year. But we are glad to note that Pro- fessor Robertson left Ottawa yesterday for the Maritime Provinces, and that chicken fattening is to be the object of his mission.
He will be here in the course of a day
or two. It 18 expected that he will address meetings and take steps to inaug- urate the chicken*fattening movement, —_—-——— - e-ere -— --__——

The expenditure is not down to thirty-five, but up to eixty millions. Mr, McMullen must go.!
