Ax employe of the Department ot Crown Lands, Ontario, now, or lately, in this city on public business, has been designated by the ‘Globe‘s correspondent as Superintendent of Woods and Forests. We know that there is nmo _ officer connected with the Department :bearing such a title; the branch _ of: the service alluded to iupc‘ui-clmdap.dmn who has been connected with it for a number of years. We might ask the Globe to correct this statement ; but it would be expecting too much of our contemporary t ask of it to They would have to protect their own fisheries, m thought it wortk while, as they best and it.would be a protecâ€" tion which the people of Maine and Massaâ€" %u.n::th _'oulg,pty sle;:r regard to. ith grain of every ription across to the States from Canada, ftgzl?)%' duty, there would, we fear, be but a slight demand for Prince Edward Island oats. Anybody who chooses to reflect can underâ€" staad what the position would be. The visit of Mr. Butler and his friends was calculated, perhaps, to tickle the vanity of the Island people somewhat, but attention which is insincere, and never intended to ChcOttawaCimes correct all the misstatements which appear in its columns. .In fact it would be nearly one man‘s work to correct all the blunders made by the Globe‘s Ottawa correspondent, to say nothing of the blunders which we may presume are made by other contributors. electioncering purposes.. Nor did the « deputation * indeed pretend that they had any power to enter into a treaty, they onuly came to visw the land and have a palaver, in order to serve a purpose, and a, very small one. Supposing for a moment that a Reciprocity Treaty was entered into between the United States and Prince Edâ€" ward, Island, what would be the conâ€" sequence? Why the Island would at once become a hot bed of smugling-â€"it would be to the Dominion and the United States what the island of Nassau was during the Southern rebellion to the former, and a state of. things. would spring up, which while: they would be demoralising to the Islanders, would be an intolerable nuisance to the neighboring countrics.

Houpex, of Merrickville, some filty miles distant from this city, who is at preseut engaged in farmâ€" Ing ten acres of land. He has somewhere about fifteen hundred grapeâ€"vines set out upon an acre and a half of this small farm ; bearing, sold a large quantity to Montreal and .Ottawa dealers. <It is estimated that healthy vines in full bearâ€" ing will produce from eighteen to twventyâ€"five pounds of grapes each ; and when it is reâ€" membered that these are retamiled at from twentyâ€"five to forty cents per poundâ€"with a thousand vines to the acreâ€"it may be well understood that grape culture gives a very larze yield for a very small space of ground. ‘ Even at less than half the estimated product, and at less than hallf the present selling prie.,nmo.lwv’u.‘muyhuu- nually qver a thousand dollars. This is a fact of which‘the owners of warm, stony axile would do well to make a‘note. Mr. Horoex‘s grapes shewn to us yesterâ€" day were of the Concord variety, and of very ecxsellent quality. â€" He sold considerable quantities to Mres. Propenric«, of Sussexâ€"st., and to Mesers. Darcuisg and RusserL, and Mr. Hars, of Upper Town. The balance of his present year‘s crop has been mainly dis posed of in Montreal, he having at the present time but a tew hundred weight on hand, in the sale of which, at highly remunerative prices, he will have no difficulty. The sucâ€" cess which has attended Mr. Horpex‘s efforts, so far, has been such as to induce him in the States, the want is not one that is sensibly felt. The visit of Mr. Butler and his associates to our neighbors was thereâ€" fore a piece of political bunkum, made for to â€"make arrangements for extending the enterprise ; and we venture to preédict that should he plant his whole ten acre s with healthy varieties of suitable grapeâ€"vines, he will, in a few years, with ordinary attention .to â€" ‘business, be the most successful and best rewarded cultivator of the soil in the whole Provyince of Ontario. Why should not our farmers generally devote a few acres to the cultivation of the grape ? Though the price of the article were reduced to five cents per pound, the return would stilj SsATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1868 almost anything that the soil can produce ; and afer the first cost the expense of cultivation, harvesting, and general management is comâ€" paratively triding. . We quote Mr. Horpex‘s example tor the benefit of the farmers of Central Canada, and of the public at large. Grlpt culture has of late years been very generally discussed in this country, and the (4â€"For markets see Fourth Page. many examples of its succers, wherever it has been set about in an intelligent manner, have been such as ought to have commended say the least of At the general election last year, Sir Hex#x offered himself as a candidate for the representation of his old constituency in the Local Legislature of Ontario; and the softening influences of time having obliteraâ€" ted old political antagonisms, Sir Hexry was again returned as one of the standardâ€"bearers of the Conservative party ; albeit it was not forgotten that lhe had not a tew Clear Grit proclivities. â€" During the interval between the election and the meetingâ€"of the Local Legw-i lature, the name of Sir Hsxry, along with that of our local city member, was freely mentioned in éonnection with the filling of the then vacant Speakership; but notwithâ€" standing the approaches which many of his old friends were quite willing to admit that Sir Hzexszx had made towards the m â€" creed, it was resolved, and .; doubt wisely, that he, as well as our own Mr: Scotrt, were somewhat o much icentified with past political party struggles to be acceptable for the offite, and gvery respectable but politically inexperiâ€" enced man was accordingly selected. 1 Sir Hex®y took an active part in the proâ€" ceedings of the first session of the Local Legislature. _ Without referring â€" to the record we would nut venture to say how many bills he threatened to introduce, how many he actually did bring beâ€" fore the assembled wisdom, or how many he finally succeeded in passing into law. RBut we certainly owe to hiim the new Game Act of Ontario, which has been the subject of praise or censure to no.inconsiderable degree ; and on other matters he shewed a most praiseâ€" worthy activity, and a keen disposition to criticise all the actions of the Government with the utmost freedom, but at the same time without any spirit df facticusness. â€"â€" _ Sir Hexay Suitu, as a politician, has ocâ€" casionally filled a large space in the public attention. _ As Speaker of the Legislative Assembly, he made his regn n.emorable by an illâ€"judged . collision with the members of the press, from which we believe in the end, he was fain to back out ;. but all whose opinions are worth listening to upon the point. pronounce him . to have been one of the most clearâ€"headed, imâ€" partiat and competent occupants of the " first. Commoner‘s"‘ chair. This is high praise considering the long list of distinguishâ€" ed Canadiaus who have held that position ; yet so far as we kgow it was well deserved. But his manners were rather those of a byâ€" gone age. Oflarge, and fine physical pro. portions, it may be assumed that his â€" mental . endowments _ were _ also more _ remarkable â€" for their _ vigor than their polish, and to this original source may be attributed the brusquerie, not to apply to it a harsher name, which many, especially those who might have occupied a somewhat inferior position, found (and complaimned of) in his manner. â€"As a nisi prius lawyer Sir Hexryx stood high among his FvL- sional brethren; we believe he enjoy the emolaments and patiently dinhr£ the duties incident to a large profés. sional practice ; and â€"that during â€" his honorable career le= had amassed a very considerable fortune. . In private life he was very much esteemed, and leaves a large cirâ€" tle of friends, not only at Kingston, but throughout the Province, who will join with it to the agricultural community as being worthy far more general attention than it has yet received. & Wr deeply regret to learn that Sir Hexey Suttu died yesterday at his residence, Kingâ€" ston, in the 57th year of his age. The deceased was a native of London, England,. and born on St. George‘s Day, 1812. At an early age he came to this eountry and eatered on the practice ot the legal profession, and during his career achieved considerable eminence ut the bar. In 1856 Mr. Sutru, being then a member of the Legislative AssembW, became~ â€" Somcrtror®â€"Gexzrat under the Hon. (now Sir) Joux A. Macâ€" poxaL»u. In the following year, aiter the general electionâ€" Mr. SwitHu was chosen as the ministerial candidate for the Speakership, and was elected to the office, which he conâ€" tinued to hold, during the existence ‘of that Parliament up to 1861. On the occasion of the visit of H. R. H. tus Prrso® or Waues, Mr. Suitu, as Speaker o5 the Commons, and Mr. Berreacr, President of the Legislative Council, were both elevated to the dignity of knighthood. At the following election Sir Hexey, was opposed, in his old constituencyâ€" Frontenac, by the late Mr. Mostox, of Kingâ€" ston, who defeated him on that occasion, and also in 1863. From that date, the star of Sir Hexey in the political horizon was almost lost to view. A misunderstanding between himself and his political friends â€"led to his being left out in the cold ; and it was not until after the inauguration of the new order of things that Sir Hexay again reâ€"entered the [ political arena. _ _ #> his numerous family in mourning his loss. Fora man of his strong constitution and vigorous frame, though he had reaghed & comparatively advanced age, his death may be regarded as sudden and unexpected. But a short time ago, we have been assured that he was in his usual health, and we have not heard from what particular cause he died. Tus following lively pictureâ€"drawn to the liteâ€"is from the pen of the Montreal Gazette‘s ‘ special correspondent, and as the matters treated of have some local value, we think it right that our readers should‘ have the opâ€" portunity of judging of the opinions of imâ€" partial * foreigners‘‘ uninured to the apeâ€" cial code of manners which apparently preâ€" vails in civic circles at the capital. The writer, we need hardly explain, is describing the incidents connected with the Waustax trial, and in the following extract we join his company at the Court House door.

Severai times he chased a redâ€"skin and caught up to him ; Gooken‘s checking was strong and rather severe on Indian extremiâ€" ties ; Melville played a neat, strong game ; Orminston checked well; Gore made good throwing. During the game Black Fox acciâ€" dentally touched the ball with his hand, and Prescott cried foul and stopped play. The umpires disagreed as to whether it was a deliâ€" berate foul or not, and whether ar not the ofâ€" fender should be suspended from play. The matter was then left to the Referee. Black Fox acknowledged having touched the ball, but said he did it to save his face. The Presâ€" vott men, however, withdrew their protest and the game continued. Several wrestling conâ€" tests ensued, one Indian throwing Walsh, while another Ajax and Ulysses struggled near the ropes until separated by the Referee. Perhaps much of the rough play was partly in selfâ€"defence, but such play at all is not Laâ€" crosse. The game was finally won by St. Regis, they having the best of it throughbout, though Prescott proved themselves pAysically no mean matchâ€"for their dusky opponents. =â€"Montreal News. THE LACROSSE TOURNAMENT AT â€" PARLS. Confirmation of the Reported Loss of the Hippocampusâ€"Not a Survivor ofa Crew and Passenger List of 55 Seuls. [From the Buffalo Express, September 12.] . Our telegraphic columns on Thursday mornâ€" ing contained a brief mention of the nonâ€"arâ€" rival of the propeller Zippocampus, and of the fears felt for her safety. Nothing further has since reached this point concerning her, until the receipt of the Chicago papers yesterday dispelled the mystery which shrouded her fate, by the still more terrible certainty that all the worst fears had bean realized. It seems from the Chicago papers that the illâ€"fated boat left Benton Harbor, a little port near St. Joâ€" seph, Mich., about half past ten o‘clock on Monday night, having on board about fortyâ€" five living souls, all told, with acargo of fruit and sundries suélciently heavy to fill the main and hurricane decks, and to cause the boat herself to settle down in the water. She was towed down the canal by the tug Daisy Lee. The men on the tug remarked that the propelâ€" ler was heavily laden, and saw that she rolled somewhat unsteadily. _ But overhead the sky was clear, the day had been clear and calm, and no one had a suspicion of the terrible fate towards which the unfgréunate vessel, with still more unfortunate passengers and crew, was then so surely moving. accompanied by the jurors, entered the grove. On approaching the spot where the light was, he saw & number of fi;'ullaud around a fire. No sooner had they caught sight of him than they hasuly jumped on a waggon halting close by, and drove off. When the J ndge and his companions arrived close to the fire, ‘a horrible spectacle met their eyes. A twelveâ€"year old boy was lying there, gagged and tied to a board.. In the fire lay & redâ€"ho« iron, with which, the boy said, the beggars intended to burn out his eyes. They had coaxed. him away from Stuhlweissenburg, and had intenied to deâ€" prive him of his eyesight, because charitable persons would give more alms to a hittle boy than to the old vagabonds themaselyes. . As if it had been a warniog, the propelier, after leaviog St. Joseph, ran aground. A tow line was made fast to her stern, and after conâ€" siderable detention, the boat was drawn off, her head was put right, and she slowly and steadâ€" ily steamed on the voyage gl death. 2 The rest is a blank, and the page will probâ€" ably never be filled. A few hours of peacéful incident and quiet, the story of whose moments will never be told, and then the certainty of the occurrence of a terrible calamity. This is the eonclusion to which the disappearance of a precious cargo and a few bruken, disjointed pieces of wreck inevitably point. But the intervening moments, the two or three short bours that preluded an eternity, it is probable that no survivor will ever be spared to say how they came and went. The presumption is that the fite was that of a vessel topâ€" heavry, overwhelmed and sunk in the waves by a furious squall ; that those on board, thrown into the sea, after battling for a short moment of agony with ineffectual effort, went.down one by one, till the last cry was stilled. â€"â€"A Judge at Mohacs, in Hungary, was returning to the city, with his jurors, when he noticed a light in a grove which the passed. â€" He alighted from his carriage, am{ ‘TOtkl.....««5karsa rarixe.s11sr«ss 127 ANALYSIS OF BOWLING.

YESTERDAY‘S DESPATCHES. THE NEW YEAR 5629. Via Y1a Hontrfll Line, Plan for Forwarding Small Parcels by Mail««Public Delivery of Parcels More Economical than that of Pri« _ vate Companiess=A Small Parcel to | | be Delivered for One Cent, &¢. € [ From the Economist. J : Mr. Chadwick, to whose suggestion the adâ€" | , dition of the working of telegraphs to the | , business of the post office is partly due, has « come forward to urge another addition to the q business of the department. Besides forwardâ€"| . ing our letters and telegraphic messages, the post office, he thinks, might take charge of : small parcels, accommodating the public in P this as in otbher matters by low and uniform 4 charges, irrespective of distance. The sugâ€"| . gestion has been made at various times, more | . or less effectively ; but ina recent letter pubâ€" | | lished in the Journal of the Society of Arts, || Mr. Chadwick fully sets forth his reasouns, and || describes how the plan might work. The question deserves some attention, and perhaps has a chance of getting it at the present time, | when the post office is undertaking new duties itnd people are awake to the principles on which it does so. The tenor of the argument for a parcel post is manifestly the same as | that for the postal working of the telegraphs. . " The public," says Mr. Chadwick, " having an establishment for the collectionand distriâ€" bution of letters of some twelve thousand postal stations, and of twentyâ€"five thousand persons, has the right,and ought, for economy, to utilise that great establishment for the colâ€" lection and distribution of any other matter within its capacity." This was exactly what _was said for the telegraphs. The machinery of the postoffice enabled it to supply facilities for the collection and distribution of telegraâ€" phic messages with which private telegraph compat ies couldâ€"not compete. And the arguâ€" ment that the existing work of the post oftice will be beiter done by increasing its functions, especially of a similar kind, is also applicable® here. Mr. Scudamore insisted very strongly on the superiority of the class who could beâ€" got to act as postmastersâ€" in country districts, with every addition to their duties and consequent addition to their pay. The only questions are whether the conveyance of parcels will be an analogous duty, and whether there is sufficient promise of public advanâ€" tage. But on both points we think there can be no doubt. The book and pattern post is already a species of parcel post, and the proâ€" posal is ouly to extend to all articles the facilities granted to a few, with the farther facility of & still lower charge. People who are partial to the extreme. doctrine of private enterprise Assert that the post office goes too far in carrying parcels even as it now does ; but on general principles there is no ! reason for carrying letters or telegraphic mesâ€" sages whick does not apply to parcels. The interchange of small articles is a part of those " communications" which promote the comâ€" fort and convenience and welfare of socicty ; and the book post practically demonstrates that no other agency for their collection and distribution is so effective or convenient as a postal establishment. The case is just one where a national agency may intervene to equalize facilities throughout the country, performing in many cases more service than private personus could, and in noâ€":cases, or at least very few, performing less. It might be a practical difticulty in establishing the parâ€" cel post, though Mr. Chadwick does not alâ€" lude to it, that certain private businesses will be interfered with. Railways carry partels, and there are parcel companies, but the post office will beat them all out of the field. At the worst, however, this would only give a claim for compensation, though in strict right, in a country where the principle is unlimited competition, there ought to be no compensaâ€" tion merely because the Government, that is the whole community, becomes a competitor in a particular business. It cannot be urged, at all events, that railways have encouraged traffic as to entitle them to complain of threatencd rivalry; The uniform tarif proâ€" posed by Xr. Chadwick is two pence per pound â€"â€"a half penny per quarter of pound â€"and this, as a rule, will be cheaper than any parcel tariff in existence. It is half the present tariff by book post, and quarter the tariff for the pattern post. Ifthe thing can be worked so as not to cause loss to the departmentâ€"and we believe the ogi:xion of the post office auâ€" thorities is that it"canâ€"the adrantage to the . public is apparent. ‘The wants that will be supplied, the small convenience furnished, which taken altogether amount to a great deal, will be infinite. Mr. Chadwick says : « A son in place in London sends to his mother by postage, stamps or money order, a portion of his wages, and she in return might send him some piece of her own workâ€"a pair of . stockings, or some socks, or a comforter"â€" some small thing which would not bear the expense of the pattern post. But there are multitudes of other transactions between town residents and the country. Every person in the country may order trom the metropolis, or froem towns, on his own account, articles which it would not pay to get sent as parcels or patterns undâ€"r existing circumstances. Those especially whose business is in the meâ€" tropolis, and who live in one of the cities more or lessdistant, which are virtually a part of it, will have a carrier to their hand in the post office with which z0 existing agency can compare. . The post book has done much already to cut up the provincial book trade, but not without advantage to the buyâ€" | ers of books, and similar results will follow the extension of similar or greater privileges to other articles. There are two practical difficulties which will be urged. A halfpenny parcel rate can hardly fail to interfere with the postal revenue ; every letter will be called & parce!, and possibly it may ‘beexpedient to . make the minimum charge a penny, except | in the case of printed matter sent in an open . cover, about which there can be no mistake that it is not a written letter. This would allox a balfpenny charge for circulars, and remove some gricvance that is undoubtedly felt in consequence of the present postal monâ€" opoly. But these are matters of detail, and a regulation as to the mode of making up parâ€" cels may sufticc to prevent evasion. The other practical objection is~â€"and railway comâ€" panies say this already of the book and pat. tern postâ€"that the post office will bs overâ€" whelmed with work, and letters will be delayâ€" ed that parcels may be delivered. But this again is a matter of regulation and detail. The public should rather gain even as to their letters by the increase of mails and deliveries as the business of the post office increases. Altoâ€" gether, we believe there is no goé theoretical or practical objection to a parcel post on the plan proposed. which we trust will soon be carried. The advantage to be derived may be less than from the State working of the teleâ€" graphs, but it is great enough to authorize a little agitation on the part otf the public which is to gain. The Government and the post office authorities are not likely to be remiss if publicâ€"opinion supports them.
