At the end of 1879 it was 860466 miles ; to -day, it is a little over 162,000 miles. The great- est inoreaee was in 1887 when over 1.3,000 miles of road was constructed, The railway mileage of the United. fitates and Canada is now greater ban that of all the rest of the, world. Toa year 1890 is certain to be a year of political excitement through, out the several provinces of the ,Do- tninion, as the terms of the Local legislatures of no less than five Prov, dunces expire: within a new months. The Xew Brunswiok Assembly has been dissolved, and the nominations `are set clown_ for the 13th of this month, polling to follow on the 20th, Elections will aleo be . held in Nova r$ootia, Qnebec,Qntario and Manitoba. 'Tan Montreal Star very politely ?teniarks that the proposal to establish `ariners' Institutes in that province en the model of those. in Ontario is an 'et4aellei one, and Oolonel Rhodes will leave the best wiehse of the commun- ity in carrying it into effect, apart al - 'together from mere party oonsidera- tione. In = Ontario these institutes have been of immense benefit to `. the fanners, in giving them opportunities for meeting, and discussing . their mutual interests. The debates' carried stn and resoluitiona adopted at these meetings furnish a valuable indica. tion of the tendency of thought in the rural, constituencies, make known the feedings of the agricultural, class, and are an educating influence of great value to the general public as Well as to t1u farmers themselves. • , Tag statistics of bankruptcy in the United States and Oanad.t for; 1829 show that the total number of failures in the Dominion lash year was 1,777, eompare'd with. 1,0.77 in 1888, In the United States they increased trona 10,679 to 10,882.

Tothe editor etthe Tanen Duo SII;, —.Ii; yotir edition, of the 29th of November, Rev. Mr, Shortt continues his reply to my letter in yours of the 1st and: 8th November. My reverend friend once more alludes to the Jesuits Estates' bill, I do not see any use enlarging on this question. It has been suffrcient}y veutilated, and the proper authorities have decided the matter. He also treats us to a few more remarks on the immorality of the Jesuits. - It seems that in my let- ter, , in quoting from him, t said that his objection to the endowment of the Jesuits "is not grounded on their im- morality, but on their interference in political; matters, and with the religion if they did not restore and Mr. S. goes on and e ehowed from the pNes les bane des Jesuits (b that in. h the terrors of cation were held up, Ie n interference by somebody' dear Rev, friend, In the ti the Witness ill not only no authority on matters Oat is. notoriously pred,judic ing them, At ail even Friend will have some diffi least, in proving this vague from unreliable authority, to work of the Jesuits, for thos utile are not mentioned.

This" will be of others when they obtain power," I P omitting the word • private" before is immorality, Does die omission make any material difference ? Let us see., s If the Jesuits are moral in their•pri. a rate life, are they not as a natural con, t sequence moral in public life also? p Neither can. the society, ad such, be no immoral. 1t is absurd to say that a yo number of moral men will organize themselves into a society for immoral of purposes, or that they would join a p society organized foh that purpose. If ho they did either, then they are not bed moral at all. Nor do I think my rev. Iles erend.friend bas mended the matter pl by enlisting the service of Rev.Princi- zoo pal Oaven,who says.; " We disclaimed abo referring to them on that score from he a the beginning," That. is to say, on the in score of their private immorality, but the worthy Principal goes on, "tl+c apol society as a whole is immoral because its tain members in promising to be a staff or in f crucifix in the hand of the Superior, not. yield up their conscience, and their' imp responsibility to God to another." ` (The italics ,are mine.)
