A prominent Last Ditcher Ccity) showed
his hand plainly yesterday at the St.
Charles Hotel. He confessed that the Re-
formers were presumptuous in claiming a
place on the Greeley and Brown ticket and
thought the Liberals were not required ab-
solutely to pay much attention to their de-
-mands, "but," added he, "yOu may set it
down as positive that we will make. no
terms which do not give us the parish and
city ticket" This has been their objective
point from the first

1t is particularly excellent spirit. mani
tested by the Liberal delegates from the
country that they are determined to stay
here as long as their important business re-
'quires. Many who chafe at even the pres
ent necessary delay, assert a firm determi-
nation not to be run off or demoraized, as
on the occasion of the Opera House con-
ventiOn. This is patriotic, and promises
good results,

Ex-Governor WickIife, on. the Demo

mise, eonciliation and union policy. Should
such meR's counsels prevail the Liberals

of them.

HOW THINGS ARE

AS lntimated in my last article on this sub
ject, continue my remarks.
A 4th benefit enjoyed by the town-folks is
the want OF proper water conveniences. A few
miserable wells in both towns, without any conve-
nIent arrangements for drawing or pumping the
water, afford all the supply which has been
Youcflsaied TO them. 1t is q good thing for us
that fires are OF so rare occurrence here, or this
striking neglect of the public good, might have
developed its fatal consequences long ere this,
with a vengeance.
Some time ago, the government built g cis-
tern on the Protestant Quay, in the harbour of
Christiansted. This is the only public reser-
voir on the island, and was principally intended
to supply the shipping with rain water; but it
affords no supply to the public. There is a cis-
tern on the premises of the courthouse in each
town but neither of these affords any public
supply.
If the financial state of the island cannot al

common use and convenience of the townfolks.
and as a municipal provision to guard the inter-
eSts OF orr ogerhn:dened town taxpayers, can
not a simpler continuance be adopted, one less
expensive, but, at least, calculated to meet this
necessity in such a manner, that an ample sup
ply of god water might be always at hand, to
meet any exigency in cases of FIRE Would it
be the worst use that could be made of the

island, by the Home-G Government, to spend q

To the Editor of the "St. Croix Avis"
Mr.. Editor:
Dear Sir,

Your correspondent "Agricola" has
doubtless held up to public view certain
grievances, the fucts Of which have been
read with no small degree of interest and
satisfaction but | regret to find between
the lines his antipathy (not disapproval of
the Sal 900 Military burden, which every
one bemoans) against the poor private
soldier and his non-commissioned officer,
for this his weak point tends in some mea-
sure to tarnlsh his moro equitable deduc-
tons.
lam, Mr.. Editor, an old traveller who
has seen no small portion of the civilized
world, and in no part have | seen at any
time a more regular, orderly, well-disci-
plined and better behaved body of men
than the soldiers in st. Croix. 1t seems
, 1872-04-24

rather hard that they should be charged
with g life of ''dissipation," when they
only receive for their hard and unpleasant
duties (rom which, thank God! we are
exempt the nearest known thing to nothing
that such men have ever been known to
receive as their wages. Allow me to ask,
What can their few cents procure them9
whence tie means for the state attributed
to them? Are they not "men with like
passions as Mr.. Anybody7 Why should
any one be surprized to find q bad case
here and there among q people who are
far from their homes aud friends, and who
are in a great neutrality-suspicious. | should
say-entireiy excluded from the better So
ciety to be found IN St. Croix, Just because
OF the circumstance attendant on a militia
ry life. Add to the above, one important
fact, the punishment Inflicted on them for
dissipation OF one sort, and you will see a.
once that were they more inclined to such
d life than any other people, they run the
greater risk Of double punishment, where
as many Of the 'Cedars Of Lebanon" who
really can afford to enjoy life. do iast the
very thing fer which the poor soldier is IN
Justly reproached, This reminds me of
the trite saying, "Wha is uce in the poor
man is virtue in the rich or we,I-to-do."
Let "Agricola"-but probably "Agrico-
la" has no time for AgricoIe est agrum CO.
Iere-visit the Barrack a little at different
periods of the day, and l am sure he will
be forced to moderate his views regarding
the military and confess, at least 10 his
heart of hearts, "they are on the whole
no worse than others, (though much worse
off than many as regards comforts,) what
ever name those others are accustomed to
bear"
| do sincerely hope the time to be not
far distant when we shall be able to dis
pense with the military, and have in our
own people an efficient Police Force, con-
trolIed by an able but not overnight salaried
Chief; but until then, let us have patience,
(for which we are proverbial) and never
do injustice, especially to men whose very
position far away from their homes claims
cur sympathy.
