NOTI S AND CQMMENTS
While all busiaesa is being done
with as idea of Pat liament owning on
November 4sli, it is mote probable that
the 18th. of that mor.ttt will be the more
likely date of the epening of the next
session.
There have been abottt a, hundred
rural sued delivery routes established in
Canada since the inauguration of the
system last autumn, The majority of
them are in Ontario and Manitoba. The
demand for free rural mail routes is less
active in Quebec and the Maritime
Provfnoes than in other parts of Canada.
The foreign element predominates in
Ohie go which has a population of
2,573,835, The native born Americans
number 699,554; Germans, 563,705,
There are about a quarter of a million
of Irish, and the remainder consists of
Poles, Swedes, Russians, Bohemians,
Chinese and people of thirty or more
other nationalities
Immigration to Canada is again on
the increase, and the growth in arrivals
from the United States is especially
heavy. It was sixty thousand last year,
rind promising to exceed aeventy.five
thousand this year. During June, 20,•
869 persona entered Canada, 5,233 more
than during the previous June, an in.
crease of thirty-three per cent.
The man who gives himself over en-
tirely to pessimism is likely to become
hardened and sour, an affliction to him -
sell and a nuisance to the neighborhood.
The wends:deemed man takes in the
whole picture, the sunshine as well as
the shadows, He rejoices at times and
is glad of the opportunity for rejoicing;
but he does not close his eyes or harden
his heart to the saddening realities of
lite. He takes the world aa he finds it,
but tries to make it a little better, not
entirely satisfied with his success nor
yet despairing at his failure. -Wood -
stook Sentinel -Review.
There are frequent paragraphs in the
daily papers regarding a combine of
Dement manufacturers. The object is
to eeoure uniform prices, and the com-
bine was advertised at first as needing
$20,000,000 to buy up all the factories -a
sum since increased to $30,000,000. The
more water the more profit to the brok-
ers who are trying to engineer the deal.
Should the combine be carried ant, its
promoters may count upon it the farm•
era of the Dominion will make a united.
demand to have the duty on foreign
made oementa removed. Cement has
become an essential. - Huntingdon
Gleaner.
Canada's trade is booming again, and
at the present rate of growth will soon
reach the high-water mark of a eon*
of years ago. The total trade of the
Dominion during the first four months
of the present fiscal year, which is to
the end of July, approached the two
hundred million mark, totalling $191,-
919,204. Of this $111,791,842 was mer -
anodise entered for consumption, a
gain of $29,377,301. Dutiable goods
were entered to the amount of $66,028.•
887, a gain of $13810,834, and free goods
were valued at $45,762 945, a gain of
$8,566.467. Duty was collected to the
amount of $17.855,948, an increase of
$3633,440, Exports of domestic pro-
duce totalled $73,398,595, a gain of
$6,193,585.
A newly apointed Scottish minister
on itis first Sunday of ofdoe had reason
to complain of the poorness of the col-
lection. ',Mon," replied one of the
elders, "they are close --vera close.

ter he put three or four saxpences into
the plate hisses' just to gie them a start.
Of comes he took the saxpenees awa'
with him afterwards." The new minis•
ter tried the sumo plan, bet the next
Sunday he again had to report a dismal
faflttre. The total collection was not
only snlull batt he was grieved to find
that his own eixpentee were missing.
"Yo may be a better preacher than the
%old meenister," exclaimed the eider,
'but if ye had half the hrowledge a' tbo I

Certain, of the Tory papers are allud-
ing to the public) expenditure as being
greater than it was twelve years ago.
These papers cannot realize that Oan-
ada is growing. While it is true that
the publio expenditure is greater than
formerly, it is likewise true that the
public) revenue is greater. When the
Canadian Pacific owed the Government
the sum of $30,000,000, its gross revenno
wss nuder $5,000.000 and its ex-
penses less than that. Now the gross
revenue of the company is $75,000,000
and its expenses large in proportion,
but no one would be foolish enough to
attack this company for spending mare
money than it did thirty years ago,
beoauae ft is well known that the rev-
enues will stand it. So 11 is with the
Government. The revenue is greater,
the expenditure is greater, but there is
a very comfortable surplus, or differenoe
between ordinary expenditure and the
revenue. Canada is a greater country
than was the case twelve yeara ago, but
the Conservative party are not willing
to acknowledge this, It is unfortunate
for Canada that opponents of the Gov-
ernment follow a policy of political ex-
pediency rather than of patriotism.

Live Stook Markets.
Toronto, Aug. 16. -Union Stook
Yards-Butoher cattle prides were 15c
to 20o higher at this market to -day than
a week ago to -day. Trade was only
moderately active, owing to the fact
that the drovers were inclined to hold
their stock for to -morrow's export mar-
ket. For this reason, although there
were over 90 oars of oattle in the mar-
ket, there was but a Iight offeeing of
botcher cattle available for to•day'a
market. The result was firmer prioea
an a limited amount of trading.
Anticipating a good demand for the
export trade to -morrow, loads of good
butcher cattle were held as shipper's.
Cables to -day, however, indicate a
little easier prices in the Old Country
markets, though a good demand for U.
S. markets may more then make up for
any possible falling off for the Liverpool
market.
Spring Iambs were firm at last
week's sudden advance. Sheep were
steady.
Hogs -Market easier and 15o. lower,
To -day's run was 90 tetra, with 1,848
head of cattle, 442 sheep and Iambs, 8
hogs and 50 calves.
