AROUND our wharves presents quite a lively appearance. Repairing and loading schooners is the order of the day.

Mr. Loyd French has a schooneg of about 60 tons in frame, Mr. John Ramaay, foreman With a man of Mr. Ramsay’s experience, coupled with the owner, no doubt she will when completed be A. 1.

We are looking for the arrival of our genial friend E. K. Caldwell, agent for Mr. Rapert’s nursery. He represents a firm, and we may say the only firm, that has given perfect satisfaction in their line of business. ‘The trees of all kinds imported to this part of the country by them are doing well, if any by chance miss they at ovee furnish others, The firm by their straightforward way of doing business here- tofore, bid fair to become a permanent and well merited industry. The people believe in their mode of dealing.

Two lobster factories will be working this season, the old establishment of Mr. James Johnston, and a new one erected by Joseph Rogers & Co. The four men belonging to the firm are men of long ex- perience in the business, very careful, and we prophecy for them, if the lobsters hold out, a successful career.

Your paper as usual takes the lead in cir- culation and infiuence. — WB. hae —

As Mr. Blair and his colleagues are known as Reformers, their victory is already represented as a »ad bloW at the Dominion Government, and bye and bye we shall doubtless be toldjthat a tremendous reaction has set in down east.
