FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1881. -1 DOt7H?fN0 ?HAMA$ Mr. Thomas Farrow, who represents North Huron at Ottawa, has evidently ,Leen worried by its utterance of rums in last week's issue, in which we hazarded the opinion that, owing to his vote on the Syndicate monopoly, he would not nit in the next Parliament. That Mr. Farrow has been touched in a tender spot, can be seen by the following let- ter, te•eivd by u0 en Wednesday. morn- • OTTAWA, 7th Feb4; 1881. -e' DEAR SIttakL, - Allow me to thank you for your free editorial in reference to myself, and your prophecy therein contained, but I must remind you that you have in the past, in my one roved a false prophet, and, therefore, what re- liance can we put in your utterances. • Yours, &c. , , T. FARRow. Mr Farrow is en unbelieving Thomas, and would rank us with the false prophets. Leat us see where our later Didymus stands. In 1e72 he defeated Mr. Somerville by ' ver 200 votes. In 1874 we predicted a reduced majority for him, and his majority over Mr. Leckie was 167 . In 1878. when the N. P. agitation was spreading over the Dominion, and when Mr. Farrow pro - ,wised to support Mr. Pat Kelly for the "O, :sae nine enemy would write • book!" The member for North Huron bas net written a boot, but he attempts to be witty in s letter which we take pleasure is publishing this week. When Mr. Farrow tries to be serious, he is laughable ; but when- he would be facetious he grows solemn. With all his pretended indifference and assumed bravado, theBluevale statesman appears to be a little scared. Ws hope our readers will read, and preserve for future reference, the mag- nificent spascb of Hos. Edward Blake, which atam in supplement for this week. Mr. Blake did not speak to the members of the House alone. His wards were for the nation's ear. Parliament has ratified the contract, but the country has yet to pronounce upon it. The patriotic words of the eloquent leader of the Oppoation were not heed- ed by the servile majority that range themselves behind the Premier's back; but a listening country will not forget them; and when the next election takes place, the full effect of Mr. Blake's ut- terances will be seen in the triumphant return to power of the Liberal party of Canada. THE Stratford Herald is silly enough to state that although Mr. Blake is a Legislature if that gentleman would get wealthy nun; his friends are "ouietl" him the Catholic vote, Tag sIG1t1L pro- Ipeering the hat around among the audi- pkesied aTurther reduction in the num- ber of ` los supporters, and even hoped that he would be defeated. Mr. Farrow was victorious, but his victory was a Pyric victory indeed, -- his previous majority of 167 over lir. Leckie being re- duced to only 81 against Dr. Sloan. A proportionate drop in 1883 will retire Mr. Farrow to the classic precincts of Blue - vale. Doubting Thomas is more biting- ly sarcastic in his note than the circum- etances warrant. He knows as well as we do that his political days are num- bered. We have no quarrel with Mr. Farrow personally, but politically there is a volca ta, and we hope to be in at his political death in North Huron in 1886. We would counsel Mr. Thomas Farrow to follow in the illustrious foutateps of Hon. "Wandering Willie" Macdou- gall, and insist upon getting the loaves and fishes very soon. His North Huron seat is fast slipping from him; his party is doomed, and he knows it. Then he has before him but one course, and that is to put his claim as a tried politi- cal servitor of the Tory party before his chiefs, and ask for his share of the fat of office before his last chance dips away. with the mate duties in all poets of the Inspire on those ItrtieM on which it atictM le Arend neoessa•7 te impose a Oe$oms tariff, and whish they might imtjort from each other, but with a wr is as goods from their foreign was - tries that retuned to enter into the ar- tsa�asat, trail. betimes all parts 4 th.

If a detferential duty could be put on all merchandise reaching colonies from other countries than England, European nations would have some inducement to give us the benefit of the most -favoured -nation clause. ence in order to recoup hien for his speeches.,. Thi% assertion is made on the strength of a request in a Reform circular for members of the party to raise funds to aid the Opposition in Ottawa to fight the Syndicate contract, in the way of spreading political literature. The Syndicate and Government provided the ,neons for the circulation of Sir Chas. Tupper's speeches; while the Re- formers have had to depend upon the liberality of private members of the par- ty to endeavor to offset the spread of Syndicate matter. The Herald is dishonest in its comments upon the cir- cular -but it is characteristic. WHAT ABOUT ANOTHER RAIL- WAY! When Mr. Horace Horton. at the municipal nomination, stated that it was necessary to bring in a competing line with the Grand Trunk, in order to furth- er the prosperity of God.rich, he struck a popular chord, and every ratepayer who listened, believed that a truth had been enunciated.

I had hoped to have heard that steps had been taken by Canadian aepitalisti looking to the organization of a Salt Mining Co., and the mining ref rock salt. Since I advocated the Kind-Chandran peas for sinking at Gude-ride' there have been shafts sunk in more that one place in England, vis: Catlnuck Chose, Staffordshire and Whitbsr'n. I inclose you extract from treaasaCtioas of the W. E. M. M. and M. E. showing how successful the process has been carried on at the latter place. Now, while your country is advocating and obtain - mg aid for gigantic rilway schemes, I think it is a groat pity some aitch aid can- not be obtained for your salt interest.

E• hist. M. and M. Registers. - - The Kiwd- Chandrus Process of sinking Shafts. "The Whitbern Coal Company hav- ing obtained their royalty, commenced operations about five or six years ago; but the quantity of water encountered became so enormous that the sinking operations in the ordinary way had to be suspended. The quantity of water pumped at the time the ordinary meth- ods were discontinued amounted to near- ly 12,000 gallons per minute. In each pit water was met with at a depth of 100 feet, and the difficulties then began. By means of incessant pumping upon a prodigious scale, a further depth of 36 feet was sunk ;and then the excessive meet and the slow progress of the work de- cided the proprietors to discontinue the means which had up to that time been employed, and to resort to the Kind- Chandron process, the use of which had been in successful operation in the North of France and Belgium. In the first shaft a preliminary pit, 6 feet in 'diame- ter, was sunk to a depth of 422 feet, and then the shaft was sunk to the same depth at its full diameter of 14 feet 6 inches. Upon the completion of the first shaft to below the water -bearing strata, a second shaft, which is neces- sary in order to comply with the require- ments of the Legislature, was begun. Thi] second shaft is being put down, and is now ennk to a depth of -274 feet, of which the 1oeer part 164 feet has been sunk' by the Kind-Chandron process. At the time when the members of the Institute visited the pit one shaft had been completed to below the water -bear- ing strata, and the second was in course of sinking, and far advanced towards successful completion. In the first shaft the average rate of advance by the small bore was 2 feet 8 inches per day of 24 hours, and by the large bore 1 foot 4 inches. In the second shaft the ratio of advance with the small bore was 1 foot 8 inches, and with the large bore it has been up to this time 1 foot 6 inches. The diameter of the small bore in the second shaft HI 6 feet 7 inches, and of the large bore 15 feet 5 inches. The weight of the small boring tool (trepan) is 11 tons, and of the large boring tool 20 tons. The sand punp (cuiller) contains 12 feet in depth, and 12 tons in weight of de- bris from the large bore. The debris extracted consisted of very small pieces of limestone, the largest weighing only i few ounces, and theme larger pieces being very few in number, 1t is expect- ed that alt. second shaft will be com- pleted by the end of the present year." --iTransactions North England Institute Mining and Mechanical Engineers, vol.

We are glad to note that the proposal to create a free -trade union between England and the Colonies seems likely to assume a tangible form. The follow- ing in reference to the subject • is from the Co/reties and India: -- In the last week of February an im- portant conference of the representa- tives of the Chambers of Commerce in different parts of the Empire will be held in London on the subject of free trade, and the best means of cresting unifor- mity in the Customs' duties throughout the Queen's dominions. The arrange- ments fur the conference have been near- ly two years in course of preparation, and it is anticipated that all parts of the Empire will be represented by delegates. The different Chambers of Commerce in England will send forty-eight, Canada ten, India nine and other colonies from two to four each. The leading object to be obtained by the conference is the establiahment, by special regulations, of reciprocal trade advantages between the mother country and the different colonies of the Empire, and between those colo- nies themselves Even if this desirable object be not attained, the conference ,will afford an opportunity for collecting and making public the fullest inform- ation relative to the different colonies, 'their delegates being specially invited to furnish statements of their imports and exports to and from Great Bntais, the Colonies and India, and foreign coun- tries respectively, and of the available surplus for exportation "f the different products of each. The broad proposal to be submitted to discussion is that, by uniform fir at least reciprocal fiscal regulations, all parte of the British Empire should be induced to trade with titch other rather than with foreign countries. The bond between the several dependencies of the Empire and the mother country, and between the dependencies themselves, would be greatly strengthened by the encourage- ment to mutual trade which wtuld be . ceded by the poaal.
