Island.” Sucu is the title of a well written article in a late issue of your valuable paper. Though the article is quite complete as it, stands; yet lam sure your correspondent | ‘*O,” who is evidently a thinking man, will | pardon me for slightly enlarging upon the | important ideas he has wielded in so excel-| lent a manner. i think the Government organs have dis-, posed of all the assertions by which the} opponents of the National Policy have en-| ceavored to prove that it is injuring P. E. Island; and | shall merely treat it as it may affect us in the near future. P. E. Island will never become a great wanufacturing province, from the isolation | she suffers in the winter months, and the want of ceal and iron. There is a suffi- cency of woollen mills in operation to .our farmers go more earnestly into sheep- ‘raising, an industry in which there is money, if properly attended to. Ootton factories, machine works, or sugar refiner- ies, would not pay. as we can now import from the sister provinces, perhaps, more ‘cheaply than we could manufacture. | Canning and fishing are buat transient indus- ‘tries, and it would be _ futile to build great expectations upon them. There is, however, ample room for more cream- _eries. There should be one in every farming /section of any importance, managed upon ‘the co-operative system, so that the farmers | should derive all possible profit from the | production of good butter and cheese, for | which there will always be a greater or Jess ‘demand. Farmers, in such cases. would ‘keep a larger number of cows, and conse- ‘quently their farms would be prvuportion- lally enriched. Our great industry for all | time to come must be agriculture, and our ‘efforts should tend to a constant improve- Frege of the methods of farmimg, and we should strive to increase the acreags under | cultivation. ' Nova Scotia, on the other hand, is not likely, with the exception of Cumberland, Hants, Annapolis, etc., ever to become a ' great agricnitural Province. But with her | vast fields of coal and iron, with her gold | and copper, etc., she is destined at no very ‘distant time to become fhe creat manufac- | turing part of Canada, Pictou, New Glas- gow, rry, Spring Hill, Truro, and ‘several other Villages, will become large ‘manufacturing towns—premising of course | that the National Policy continues to exist, ‘shutting out the United States competition —and will contain a large laboring popula- tion, requiring an immerse quantity of food, such as potatoes, oats, wheat, beef, pork, | fish, ete., of which the country immediate- ily surrounding them will not be able to ‘furnish a tithe. Now, as ‘‘O” very per- |tinently remarks, they must seek the markets where they can purchase most advantageously and cheaply, and thet market is P. E. J. | Lying almost at the door of the manuafac- turing and mining part of Nova Scotia, | with unparalleled facilities of shipment, | water communication being the cheapest |in the world, and considering the producing | capabilities of P. E. Island, as yet only in |their infancy, we can easily picture her as | the granary of Nova Scotia. A large trade jis already being developed between these | Provinces. Nova Scotia is willing to take | our field products, and we require her coal, ,iron, and manufactured goods, taking them gladly in return for helping to feed her ; people. A large number of coasters will be needed, giving employment to vessels that have been lying idle, and materially assist- ing our old occupation of shipbuilding. | Year by year the industries of Nova Scotia are vigorously growing, giving her more laboring people, requiring constantly in- ‘creasing food supplies from our little Pro- vince, and year by year we consume larger quantities of Nova Seotia coal. | We are now clear of the larger portion of our floating population, and we are not j } The Stock on hand is now selling at COST and GHARG KS, likely to see it at any future time form so vreat an element in P.

Our only safety then, our only hope of _ becoming a rich and prosperous province, | is in the continuance of the National Policy, | tha improvement of our agriculture, and the ‘gradual developement of Nova Sectian mining and manufacturing.

It was well sung, and earned for Mr. Lutz a high reputatior as a vocalist. Then followed readings from W. G. Me- Donald, J. W. Young, and J. A.

The latter gentleman recited in a clear, distinct voice, ‘A Yankee Courtship.” It was extremely ludicrous and brought down the house. There were also several ad- dresses delivered by gentlemen present. Thus ended a very pleasant meeting. The following Wednesday night we dis- cussed, ‘‘Which is the stronger passion, Love or Hatred.” E. Grant, Esq., Angus McKenzie, J. W. Young, John A. Smith, and Alfred Hynes, argued that Love was the stronger; and John McGillivray, Esq., W. G. McDonald, P. F. Doyle, Thomas Furness, and Jeremiah Murphy, ably re- plied on the opposite side. The decision was given in favor of Love. The subject for next debate will be, *‘Has Confederation been an injury or a benefit to P. E.

To the Editor of the Examiner. Dear Sirx,—In the Patrict, of January 30th, there appears a communication from **Civis” who tells us that he is a supporter: of the party of ‘‘Reform and Retrench- ment.”’ Well, if l were one of the newly elecied Councillors, I would be ready to . exclaim, ‘‘Save me from my friends,” What does ‘‘Civis” want them todo? Re- duce the expenditure? How can they? He does not attempt to show. After many suggestions and much advice, he tells them you must maintain the different depart-’ ments in their present efficient state, must keep the present city officials in office, ete., etc , Lut fails to show.them where they can reduce the expenditure one dollar. With “‘ Civis? I agree as to the main- taining of every department in good order, and do not think it would be wise to curtail the expenditure on any of them I would like to see our City Debt reduced, but cannot see how it can be done at present. If the income of the City meets the expen- diture, and money can be borrowed at} per cent. instead of 6, would it not be weil to let the present debt stand until such time as an improvement in trade is brought about. I think the out-going Council did well for the citizens and should have been returned instead of the so-called party of ** Reform and Retrenchment.” ‘* Civia’’ having failed to show where the expenditure can be reduced, I will not follow him in his wandering with reference to income, only to speak of the bell tower contract. If only a much larger rent eonld be procered from that, or if Blxke Bros. could be forced out, it would, in *‘Oivis’” eyes, be a panacea for the whole City trouble. Blake Bros., took the lower flat of the Bell Tower some five years ago, (when no other butcher wou!d'take it) and gave the city a good rent for it; and when they wanted their lease renewed, the council, could not do o#herwise than renew it for them. Now, when Blake Bros., have shown that they can do a good business, pay one hundred cenws to the dollar, and a big rent besides; how jealous ‘‘Civis” gets ! He (‘‘Civis”) is a big pushing fellow,—en extraordinary good business man, He would not do as Blake Bros., have done, deposit $20,000 in the Bank of P. E. Island; he would rather draw $16,000 out and never return it. I was figuring to-day in this way, total liabilities of the the Bank of P. E. Island $400,000, an overdraft of $16,000 consider- ed no good by liquidators, if paid would be just four per cent. extra dividend to the creditors, or $800.00 more dividend to Blake Bros., on their depesit which would pay an extra rent of €200.(0 a year for fours years on the Beil Tower. Now I would advise ‘‘Civis,” and the like of him, to manage their own affairs a little better, try to reduce their own expenditure, and if they do not know where to begin I can soon tell them.
