We may reasonably presume that the Governor -General's invitation to observe last Thursday throughout Canada as a day of national thanks- giying was generally observed. The present position of, the Dominion, and the unusally botuutiful return of the late haryest season. afforded abundant material for gratitude to the "Giver of ,ll." When we review the position of Canada since the era of Confederation, :and compare our present prosperity and widely extended dominion with the once disjointed state of the provin- ces—particularly of Upper and Lower. Canada -it is enough to call' forth the gratitude. and the loyalty of every true lover of his country, and to feel the glow of British sentiment circling through his veins: What are the facts? The several provinces of a new coli. ;federated Dominion were isolated from each other by trade and commert;e, and by local jealousies that in a spirit of rivalry almost alienated one from the other. Ent no sooner was the poi. icy of Confederation inaugurated, than the leading public men of the different provinces agreed to sink their local .and even their political differences, so as to bring about a grand union of territory and of government and of fiscal policy. They tarew off the swad- dling bands of their infantileconclition, and at a single bound assumed the pro portions of a young ;sant; ever since which event the trade and territory and resources and public works of the Do- -minion have attained a degree never dreamt of by the most sanguine pro jectors of Confederation. As an evil enee of this, the trade of Canada has risen by $165,000,000 in value; the sav- ings of the people have risen by $142,- 000,000; 142,000,000; while the assets of banking and loan companies Haire increased by the enormous suin of $271,000,000. Then look at the amount which has been expended on the public works of the Dominion on railways, canals, and other necessarypublic • works. No doubt, this has materially increased the public debt; but the fact that we 'have more than value for all our in- debtedness, and that money lenders in England who ought to know estimate Canadian consols at a higher rate than has ever been known in the history of a colony, are sufficient proof of the monetary condition of the Dominion, speaking of our trade, the prohibitory tariff of the neighboring republic— whieh at one time was our only market has been the indirect means of opening lap a profitable trade with the Mother- land, which has grown to large propor- tions; in such commodities as eggs, cheese, butter, apples, grain, horses, beef, and other articles of export. Shew ing an increase of $15,000,000 within a few years, But one of the most strik- ing evidences of extension anal pros- perity to be seen is the development of.the North West territory, by means of C. P. 11., which has resulted in the opening up to civilization of about two million acres of fertile territory, and the springing up of cities, towns and villages all through from Winnipeg to the Pacific coast, In fact, the progress and development of our great North West seems more like a dream of en chantment than a reality. Wiunipcg, whose population as Fort Garry was only 300, is now a city of $25,000 with unlimited possibilities in the future of rivalling Chicago itself. Vaticony-er,. .which three or four years ago was un- known n-l;nohvn to the world'save as the site of tt saw-niiill now numbers nearly 15,000 of a population. Then the extent of .newly discovered nines, consisting of all the untold wealth of iron, coal,nick;, 'el, silver, petroleum, salt, fish, timber, has already given' to Canada a preeminence in the eyes of foreigners such as to mike our country the envy of the neighboring states. Add to all this the recent yield of harvest returns. all over Canada, but especially in the North West Territory, valued at some Twenty Million Dollars to the farmers of the Prairie Provinces; -and we have abundant reason for thankfulness that oar lot has been cast in such a goocll � Y land, and that we coal sincerely say "'rhe lines have fallen to us in pleasant places;yea we hay' ea goodly herltab i" eiessanowartsemenenstrosm THE EFFECT ON .GGS. The :1'[cKinlcy rill has now been in force for more than aaar•, and its ayear, effect as far as certain classes ,of Ca- nadian products which it was supposed it would specially injure, is no longer a matter for ,coil jeeture, but can be calculated with tolerable accuracy. The three articles which were most seriously attached by the bill, and the trade in. which the Grits told is would be "destroyed," were eggs, 'barley and horses Well, let us see what the re- sult has been so far as eggs, are con- cerned. The net result, after a year's experience, may be briefly summed up to bo that the average price of eggs throughout Canada, inuring the whole summer has been about two cents a dozen higher than it was last year This eyery housekeeper knows as a feet which will not be rubbed out by any amount of Grit fiction. The cry that the loss of the American market meant ruin to the trade has been proved to be utterly fallacious, as a better, More certain and more profitable market has been found in Great Brit• ain. In Prince Edward Island this ruination cry was used with great per sistanee by Mr, Davies and his follow- ers, who may find when. they again, have to faze the electors after being unseated by the courts, that the cry has something of the boomerang about it, and may, in unskilful hands, do more harm to its frieads than to its enemies. Here,is the position of the egg trade in Prince Edward Island, as given by the Charlottetown Guardian, which fully maintainsthe contention that' the Mchirltey bill has been a good instead of a bad thing for the farmer so far as eggs are concerned: "Eggs have been advancing in price. for some time. The advance is clue to the brisk demand in the United States, caused by a shortage there brought about by shipmeuts to Great Britain of large quantities of eggs by Canadian shippers, who. had kept them during it, part of the summer, and up till 1st October, waiting for an advance in price in the United' States. The. price, however, did not go up, and our eggs went to England. Larger shipments have been made to England during last summer and this fall than ever before, owin`• to the operation of the McKinley bi.l. Mr. Auld, who probably sloes the largest ousiness in the • egg trade here, has shipped a considerable number to the Old Country. At pre• sent, however, and for about a• month past, he has been sending the great. bulk of them tie the UnitedStates, as rhe price for there there is better than. in England. Eggs are now quoted in Boston at about2$c., and in. London and Liverpool about2fic. The amount of eggs annually shipped from this province is about 2,000;000 dozens." This clearly demonstrates the ad- vantage of having an alternate mark- et. So long as shippers were depend- ent on the United States alone the'1 hadto take whatever the American egg ring pleased to allow them; but note, rat ing two markets to choose from, they can always select the best. Mr. McKiulev may as well understand first as last, that.his attempt to cheer: the Great Canadian Hen is a failure. TLE NORTIL ITEST ELECTION'S'. The result, of the elections for mem- bers of the North-West Assembly has been a complete route for the Prohibi- tion party. Of the eleven members el- ected by acclamation, only one was a Prohibitionist; and in the fourteen con- tests held on Saturday only one Prohi- bitionist, Dill, of Wolsely., was return- ed. With so overwhelming a majority of the people against it,it is about time that the law forcing Prohibition upon the people of the North-West, against their will, was abolished, In gaining their desire, however, it is to be hoped that the people of the North-West will use their victory wisely ;aucl adopt such stringent license laws as will prevent anything like an ' approach of Free Trade in rum, and will effectually pre vent the sale of liquor to the Indians, The greatest and strongest argument in favour of enforcing Prohibition in the Northwest while all other parts of the Dominion have been allowed toex. ercise discretion in the matter, has al ways been the danger their would be of the Indians becoming drunken or unruly, if they were afforded an oppor- tunity of getting liquor. The . people of the North •?l est owe i; to themselves to see, not only that the legislation pro- hibiting. the sale of liquor to the l.ndi- aus is very strict, but that the lane .is rigidly eaforced. If the white men in the North-West )attest have liquor, well, we suppose they must;but they certain- ly ought to see that the sale of ligttot to the Indians is prevented. CANADA IS TrIANI 'F'UL. Thanksgiving never Was a festival of the Canadian pioneers. It is not hal- lowed as is the American day by a sacred association with the long fasts and„brief joys of ttie I'uritan forefath- ers. Never can it rise to the throne to e which generations of our race have lifted Christmas and New Year, With us it is not a time of family re unions around a hearth tire of a central liou'se• bold. IA purpose 11 is a religious ob- servance, the feast of iegathe•ing and the occasion for the sincere expression of devout gratitude to the Most High for all His mercies to us nationally and individually. Space does not,sutlice for a catalogue of all the blessings that haye crowned this year of grace, Financial ills have been mixed with the joys of existence in thisearthly paiadise. The country has bed its troubles. The people have hacl their troubles, but after all, our griefs are infinitely -lighter than our joys. Each heart can best appreciate each man's causes for thanicfuluess, P -o clamations cannot make the gloomy man rejoice,” but at calm survey of the bounties of the year will attune the heart of the fair minded Canadian to music of thanksgiving anthem.

Up to the present time its magnificent alld heaven -blessed triumphs have been so many and so remarkable, that many jealous physicians, of the lower order. have despised its wondrous effects, and will not condescend to e alpine truths connected with it, simply. because they dislike it, and fear it will take away their means of obtain ing a living. ' Warne on such low, sordid character! Away with such men, who mat personal gain before the public weal and „rood! We now .a11 t"e attention of our readers to a few soul stirringfacts;aint at the same :time we would inform those jealous physicians who dislike the truth, that full and ample proofs can be shown to them of the following cares:— Mr: B.

Dillon, chairman Board of City Assessors, Montreal, P.Q:, was for many years a sufferer from indigestion flatulency and rlieuinatisni. He has become a new mail through the use of Paine's Celery Compound, and now nosSeeses a robust constitution. Mr. Joseph Manuel, of West Brome, Parva, was given up by the doctors as an incurable from dropsey; he was ex• pected to die, but Providence directed friends to try the eFeets of Paine's Cel ery Compound on the sufferer; with the result that he is now iiigood health Mr: E.
