Summer Arrangements for Travel.
Tiwe TaRLes have at length been issued
] steamers ; and travellers ements.
for our trains ant may now make their summer arrans
‘The Railway time table 1s, we think, the
best yet issued. Under it the trains will be so run that the whole Island may be traversed in a day ; and persons leaving ho:.e for almost any point, on any day, will be able to reach home again the same day. Residents of Souris may leave that ton nat 6.30. m., come to this city, re- main about six hours, and got back again at 7.35 o'clock p, m. Residents of Tignish may leave home at 6.40 8. In, remain at Summerside two and a-half hours, and have returned by 7.50 p. m. Between Sanmerside and Charlottetown there sre three traina daily—leaving this eity at 6.30 a. m., 9.25 a. m., and 4.50 p. m., and leaving Summerside at 6.49 a. in., 1.05 p. m., and 6 p.m. This will afford ample accommodation between these points, It will be observed that the difticulty at the Westward complained of last year has been remedied ; but that, in consequence, it will be impossible for passengers for St. John, ete., residing in that part of the Pro- vince to take the steamer on the’ morning the) During the whole of
last summer only about sixteen persons
leave home. tock advaniage of the arrangement for deing so; and this loss is mere than com- pensated by the greater convenience afford- ed ‘‘ way” travellers.
The Steam Navigation Company keep a steainer running between Summerside and Shediac, leaving Summerside (daily) at a few minutes past nine a. m., and Shediac (daily) on arrival of the train from Sie Join. On the mornings of Monday, Wed- nesday, Thursday and Saturday, at hailf- past seven o'clock, a steamer leaves Char- lottetown for Pictou. We learn that the Manager of the Steam N pany tried to induce the Intercolonial Rail- way authorities to put on a special train to
Navigation Com-
connect with the steamer on these days; but the latter declined to de so, on the ground that the tratlic would net be suf- ficiently large to justify the expense. This is to be regretted ; for it is very annoying to passengers tu be kept waiting at Pictou three or four hours, while on the way to Halifax. The steamer leaves Pictou for Charlottetown every Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, after the arrival of the Halifax train.
Times are looking up; the arrangements fer travel to and from the Island are pretty goo |, and we have reason to hope that this year a large number of tourista will come to admire the ‘‘Gem of the Northern Seas.”

An Official Change.
Wa learn‘that Jehn Robins, Esq., has b2en promoted to a first-class clerkship at Ottawa, and the Hon. Joseph Pope will re- turn to his old pesition as Dominion Audi- ter and Manager of the Savings Bank in this Province. Mr. Pope’s dismissal by the late Government was an outrage for which he has, all too tardily, received satis- faction. By the late Administration he was summarily ejected from office without cause assigned. But rather than do any wrong to so capable an official as Mr. Robins, the present Government waited nearly two years, untill they could give him promotion before doing right in Mr. Pope's ease. Butifit be right to reinstate Mr. Pope, it would have been right to reinstate Mr. Colin McLennan when the opportunity eccurred ; and it would also have been right to fill vacancies and new offices with those who have suffered as Mr. Pope has sutfered. This has not been done. Men possessed of no special qualifica- tions—except that of being Grits to within a year of the last election,—have been placed in office, while Mr. Pope’s fellow sufferers have been left to sink under misfortunes which have in conse quence come upon them. The Govern- ment have done well in Mr. Pope's case. We regret that we cannot give them credit for having done well in that of others who were treated with equal harshness by the late Government.

The Supreme Court General Term, New York, has unanimously decided on the ap- peel against the burial of David Coppers in Calvary Cemetery, N. Y., in favor ot the Roman Catholic Chureh. The authorites wanted to exclude Copper’s remains, on the ground that he was a Freemason and a Protestant, and the Gencral term decision upholds the right of those whe control cem- etries to make conditions as to the persons who shall be be buried within the grounds. It appears that defendant was net bound by either contract or law to bury Coppers in Calvary Cemetery, and further, that the Beets had no status, being neither legal
presentatives, next of kin, nor assignees

Summary of Latest News. A large portion of the fall wheat in the Ottawa district has been killed.
Cordial relations are again establish- ed between the United States and Mexico.
An Ottaw’ report says it is said that the Hon. Sydney Smith of Coburg is likely to take the Senatorship made vacant by the death of the Hon George Brown.
A meeting of Catholics was held at Dort- mund, in Westphalia, on Saturday, at which 25,000 persons were present. The speakers demanded the abolition of the May laws, the recognition of the priests’ anthority, &c. Similar meetings are pro- jected throughout Germany.
A rumor current in Ottawa, but not gen- erally credited, is to the effect that Mr. Schrieber will shortly be appointed Chief Hngineer of the Canada Pacific Railway, and Mr. Sandford Fleming, Chief Engineer of the Lntercolouial and Consulting Enagin- eer of the Department.
For the first time since the reign of Henry VII, a military Mass is now cele- brated iu the Tower of London for the benefit of the Roman Catholic officers and wen of the Guards stationed there. This result has been mainly brought abeut by the Rev. Father Bowden, formerly an otti- cer in the Household Brigade.
It is a question whether Russia is not attempting an experiment similar to that of keeping back the tide with a pitchfork, when she tries to check the flow of emigra- tien. She has compelied so many to emi- grate by ferce to Siberia that it looks strange to sce her preventing her discon- tented population from going of their own accord te America.
The ninth of the faliing girders of the Cay brige was lifted from the water on Sat- urday and beached. ‘This girder, which is the last of the set of three spans, has been raised at the instance of the Committee of Enquiry, with a view to ascertain the direction in which the bridge fell. There was an expansion joint at the north end of this girder and the condition of the iron work, together with the fact that part of the permanent roadway onan adjoining span was torn away, indicates that the bridge tirst yave way at the sonth end.
