An Able Budget Speech.
(Moncton Times.)
The Budget Speech delivered by the Hon. ‘Mr. Ferguson, of the Prince Edward Island Government, is published in extenso in the Charlottetown Daily Examiner, and it will certainly rank with the most able and argu- iwentative of our Provincial budget efforts. Mr. Ferguson had a goed cause,and he pre-
the Government, while not neglecting pub- lic roads and education, have largely re-
directly responsible. $334,131 in 1878,to $261,275 in 1881.
increased somewhat, and the expenditure on roads and bridges, ete. , though less than for the period immediately preceding 1878 is still greater than for the period immediately preceding 1872, the year the Island entered Confederation. These being the facts it is easy to see that the Government, of which
Mr. Ferguson is so distinguished a member, deserves great praise for the large reductions effected in the aggregate of expenditures. In the
working of the Government Stock Farm the deficits during the three years immediately preceding 1878 averaged about $1500; dur- ing the past two years there has been a small surplus. In 1878 Legislation cost $18,118; in 1881 the cost was only $13,058. In 1878 the expenditures incurred in con- nection with the Executive amounted to $1,645; in 1881 to only $632. The admin- istration of justice cost $30,304 in 1878; in 1881 only $20,675, a reduction of one-third. Although the entire reduction in the ex- penditare is not due to retrenchment in controllable expenditures, the men compos- ing the present administration have shown themselves to be possessed not only of ad- ministrative ability, but an honest desire to economize. It is strange that wherever the Grits are routed and the Liberal Conserva- tives take their place, deficits disappear, surpluses re-appear, and affairs generally assume & more satisfactory phase.

Sn ne Dominion Railways.
Sir Charles Tupper kas laid on the table of the House of Commons the railway sta- tistics of Canada for the year 1880-1. By these it appears that the total mileage on June 30, 1881, was 10,505; of this 7,260 miles are of railways in operation, 335 miles of railway under construction on which the track is laid and 2,910 under eonstruction. The nominai capital invested in railways on June 30, 1881, was $389,285,- 700. This shows an increase ever the capital, as compared with previous years, of $18,234,507. The capital per mile of railways completed and under constraction is $37,048. The number of passengers carried was 6,943,671, against 6,462,948 in the pre- vious year,an increase of 480,722 or 7.46. he total train meleage for the year was 27,301,306 miles, against 22,477,449 niles in 1879-80, an increase of 4,872,657 miles or 21.7 per cent. The tonnage of freight handled was 12,065,323, against 9,938,858, an increase 2,126,465 tons or 21-39 per cent. The earnings of the railways in 1880-81 were $127 987,509, against $123,536,639, the in- crease being $4,450,770. The earti r mile of railway under traffic were $3,859 in 1880-81, against $3,405 in 1879, showing an increase of $454 per mile.

A disease called ‘‘thrush” has made its appearance among Pittsburgh herses, operating in an eruption of the skin, just above the hoof, and tending to soften and in some cases ruin the hoof. It is said to be non-contagious, except by immediate contact. Overworked horses and convales- cents from pink-eye are these most apt te be affected. A few deaths have occurred from it.

The city of Paterson, in New Jersey, is greatly alarmed because of the apparent in- dieations of a repetition of the bard times that begun in 1873. The great locomotive works are the main stay of Paterson, and rumors}that a number of large orders had been cancelled by the Railway companies i caused the alarm. The rumors have been confirmed and as @ consequence a great re- duction in the number of workmen is tak- ing place. One order alone for nine
locomotives has been countermanded, and several other smaller ones, amounting to one hundred and fifty engines in all. The railroad stock “market is so low that the Companies cannot raise the money to pay fer the engines, and as they will not be delivered without the cash, many that are now finished or under way will bave to be carried over. Ten finished engines at one establishment have already been stored. Orders that would not be looked at a few months ago would now be eagerly taken. The Railroad owners appear to have sud- denly awakened to the fact that the good crops of 1880 and the abnormal Kuropean demand caused them to over-estimate the requirements of the traffic, anda halt has been called. The Patersonians regard the situation with much uneasiness, and as it is claimed the panic of 1873 began in just this way, after a period ef inflation in railruad building, the circumstances are calculated to be of national interest. It does not follow, of course, that the experiences of 1873-8 will be repeated, but such may be the case, and the bare possibility is not, we
livered by Revs. W. Bayne, J. C. Berrie and} should judge,a pleasant thing tor “our
neighbors across the line to contemplate.’
The exodus from the overcrowded Gis- tricts of England to the Canadian North- West has fairly commenced, and gives promise of this year far exceeding any- thing previously kuown. So great was the demand for passage that the Allans found it necessary to comgotee an extra steamer on the 6th. ‘The first systematic step towards transporting the unemployed workmen to the land of promise was ta on the 7th, when, at the instance of the Lord Mayor of London a committee was appointed to raise a fund for the purpose. Sir A. T. Galt, on behalf of the Dominion Government, has promised to take charge of the immigrants on their arrival et Que- bec and see them safely into Winnipeg. ©
