THE Canadian~ Pacific Railway Company has, been awarded $579,0G0 as compensation for defects in that portion of its road which was handed over to it by the Dominion, and the ntOUey is to be expended in remedying these defects. IVhet the people of 'the country would like to know is, says the Mail, whether the contractor for the construction of the work was paid to•build the line properly in the first place. If he was, the $579,000 went into his pocket over and above his honest profits, Teu policy evhich was to increase our exports and decrease our imports has worked with the opposite effect for many years, and the return of • the volume of Canada's trade for the first quarter of the fiscal year shows no exception to this rule, The Canada Gazette shows that there is a decided falling off in the exports for Septemw ber, which were $12,225,596 against $12,640,528 the same month last year. i?or the first quarter of the fiscal year the total exports were $34, 017,012, compared with $35,200,528 for the same quarter last year, a de- crease of nearly $1,200,000. The imports, on the other hand, showed *all increase for September from $1 O,- 700,006 to $11,08,0,075, but tl er ty y e. collected is less than last y $280,000. • Tin Canada Presbyterian says that it is amusing to see Mr Ohapleau worrying himself with the fear that the Montreal Presbytery and Principal Grant may, not have read the evidence in the cases recently investigated in Ottawa. What really' does worry the honorable gentleman is that,tbey have read the evidence too carefully. Un" fortunately, it was not, necessary to read. the, evidence in all the cases. In the meanest ease of • the lot -tilt, meanest we should hope ever brought to hght in an English-speaking gem- muuity, the counsel for the defence practically admitted that Government positions had been sold for a small sum - of money, though lie contended the sale was not made by his client. In some of the other cases nu eyidenes was needed but the story was told by the gentlemen who carried on the operations. 'Mr Chapleau need not trouble himself about the neglect of the clergy to read the evidence. They • know all about it. THE report of Messrs Haggart, Dewdney and Fostet,' the ministers, appointed to inquire into the interior department boodiing, has been sub - witted to the Governor-General in Council. • The ministers find that sixty clerks in the interior department were coneerned in the illegal or fraudulent praetitl'e of oktaiuinu money by means of accounts for alleged extra . work— which system was , exposed by Mr Setnerville before the Public .Accounts committee last session. The ministers are of opinion that the permanent clerks knew they were acting illegially in using the names of outsiders or extra clerks to get accounts for extra work passed, and ench 4,f the clerks implicated is to be fitted a month's galaxy, and one man is reduced to the minimum of his class. With respeet to Mt Burgess, the deputy -minister, the ministers think his case differs in some respects froth the others and they therefore recommend that he be tee diced to the rant: of chief clerk, with a loss of $400 0 year salary. Three oiv'tl service employes and some out- side parties have been handed over to tbe departrnent.Ot justice to be pro. Au, Autumn Cameo. Southward, Birds are flying Summer's dead,.

Ii; Baro say it will, responded the lad, as he proceeded to moisten it at the mouth of the steaming, teaArettle. And you can have the two cents and thus save for marbles suggested Mr. Brown, thoughtlessly. hi Bred That would be cheating, w sp Dan's conscience. The stamp has al- ready done its duty in carrying one letter. It will carry another, 'It is not marked, argued Dan. But yen know that it was a mistake, urged the nibnator within. That was the postmaster's fault,and not mine, was Pan's inward reply. it is a very small thing, and the Govern- nient will net miss it ; no; not even know it The right man ;in the right place is a husband al home in the evening,.

Preparation for cold weather should begin early in the fall, and is deferred until late it becomes useless. Trees, to withstand the rigor of winter, must, says S. W, Chambers in the American Culti- vator, be strong, healthy and vigorous. After the trees have produced their fruit it is not desirable to stimulate them into woody growth. Such a growth is always tender, and a severe cold wave might kill it. It is much better to have the trees grow slowly and stocky -like after the fruiting period, and this will harden and mature the wood already made. • Surplus wood should be pruned off,andlatebuds, likewise, should be pinched away. By disbudding; the new twigs the sap will. tend to thicken them, and not to shoot them out into long spindles. Worms and insects should be looked for carefully. Iefany of them have probably laid. their eggs for another season, and it is well to gather these for the fire. Borers should be grubbed for around the base of the trees, and not allowed to spend their winter months near the trees. Begin- ning with September, the borers should be looked for every two weeks until cold • weather. If they are discoved . in the trees, run a stiff piece of wire in after them so that they may be thoroughly killed. The various washes recommend- ed do not answer so well as personal in- spection. After cleaning and rubbing the base of the tree in this way a number of times, it is well to wind a piece of wire netting around the base, extending it as far down as possible, and running it a foot above the surface. Then shovel the dirt up aroend the roots and pack it in a mound. This mound can be left all through the winter, but it should be re- moved in the spring.` The mound and wire will koep grubs, mice and often rabbits away from the bark of the trees. a Will you know it,and can you afford to be dishonest for so small an amountl the small voice whispered. Dan trembled, fur it seemed that someone had spoken the words right in his"ear. Flinging the stamp he had loosened into the fire, he exclaimed : No 1 I cannot aforaito sell Myself so cheap. What's wrong ? asked the farmer, glancing' up from his paper. Lose the stamp after so much trouble' Worse' than that, replied the boy, sheepishly. What 1 burned your Lingers with the steam 1 questioned, his employer. No, said Dan, determinedly. I sold my honor, or came hear doing so. • What do you mean, boy' The stamp is all richt. It would never have been found out. But I knew it all the time, and two cents is a small amount to get for your self•respeet ; besides— Besides what ? queried the ntan. God knows about it, and He looks upon .the heart, answered Dan. It's a mighty small thing to worry over, I am sure, replied Mr. Brown. The post office department would not have been much the poorer, I assure you. It would have been I who would have been the poorer Had Isold my honor for two cents, I should have made the worst bargain I ever did: And so Dan gained a victory, and he was never sorry that he had obeyed the voice of conscience. • binrn x IS.
