The same thing lois occurred twice before, but on one occasion it was (hie to the Crimean war and oa the other to the war „'ot 1670.1.

A number of the (ommissioners say that when they were appointed they were certainly prejudiced • against the practise. but now view •the matter in a different light. At the var- • ious meetings, hearing experienced de- horners give their experience and mode of operation, several of the commission - have thoughb quite favorable of the scheme of dehorning cattle ; and it is likely that it -will be recommended as uniniurious. se. eee were a few of the lewer forms of the High Sohool added to the eurriculum of the publie school, that the children of poor people might obtain an average education without having to leave home at a young age to attend, High Seheol, the Department of Education would be enacting ameeedinents along the line of common sense and true public economy. *** The United Stetes Government ap- pears to labor under the delusion that it ha power to exclude Canadian vessels from the $t.

The canal through the fiats was certainly cut out by the Americans, but it is an Canadian territory, and our• Government will hasten to assert its ownership. * The Provincial electiops in Manitoba Saturday resulted in the return of the Greenway Government by a slightly re. aced majority. The surprises of the day were the defeat of Ron, Messrs. McLean and Smart, members of the Cabinet, and of Messrs. Roblin and Hegel, the Opposition leaders, The re- turns show the election of 24 Govern- ment supporters, 1$ Opposition, 1 Inde. pendent. In the last liousellr,Green. wee* had 33 supportere and. the Opposi- tion 11. Concerning the wheat crop of Ontario, the great majority of reports received, from all over, state that a good average crop appears to be assured, anti oven these reports which speak of rust admit that on the whole the year will be a good one. Prospects are also brifeht for a good crop of wheat in Manitoba. In the Northwest the news is less favorable especially from Dakota and Minnes.ota, where ene report ens the epring wheat yield will not be more thau 50 per cent. cif flee eeet year. + + + + + It would appear from the vote in Man oho, on Saturday that the people in that Province -want no Separate schools. The Greenway Government was strong ha its protest against separate schools receiving state aid, and went so far as to sly that if its platform was adopted and the Privy Council decided that the Pro- vince had no right to pass the law that they would not vote one dollar to any but public schools,thusleavingthe others to starve. The Opposition took a less formidable ground, and -while pledging to support the statutes now in dispute, agreed to not only as the Privy Council might decide, pro or con; so that the friends of the national school idea will rejoice over Greenway's triumph. tete Some time ago the Dominion Govern- ment decided to introduce machinery into the Kingston penitentiary for the making of binder twine. A large sum was placed in the estimates for that pur- p ose, and farmers will reap the benefit. With a commendable spirit of imitation the Ontario Government has decided to adopt the precedent of the Dominion Government and now purposes placing machinery into the ,Central prison in Toronto to make binder twine. This legislation well have effect on the Trusts, as also on legitimate labor; and if car- ried on to any extent in the various manufactures, we may expect it revolt such as occurred in New York stafe some years ago, the result of which was the repulsion of prison labor and the closing of the prison machine shops and fac- tories. ese* * • Between the years 1877 and 1890 the •t gal expenditure for High Schools in Oatai io increased from • $343,710 to $327,208 in 1E90, and this in the face of tee very great increase of population. Titis rapid increase in the expenditure •called for a good deal of comment in the Onbario,Houffe last session, Enid at the present time the several municipalities where these sehoole aro estehlishecl are sco riplaining loudly at the inoreaaed school tax. Incteased taxation for edu- stztional 'purposes does not appear to emanate so much from the representa- tives of the people —the truatees—as from the interference and dictation of paid officies. These men, the inspeotors may be the power vested in them by the Government, advise the withdrawal of Gevernment support in cose of a non- omplianoe with their recommendations There 18 00 doubt efficient High Schools are requieite, ha there is a strongly prevailing opinion that higher education in theleountry is being overdone; ths.t owing to the working of the system the seho lr are inaccessible to it great por- tion of the community ; or, in •other words, that all the people are heavily taxed for the benefit of a few. In fact, * The voters' lists for the various muni- cipalities are being got out by the clerks in this and other counties, and how is the time for party shovers to be up and doing to so that they are properly re- vised. There are thirty days after the list is posted within which appeals may be lodged with the clerk,and our friends in each municipality should scrutinize the lists and put in appeals,so that every one entitled to be a voter -will have his name on them.

The vote recorded on Saturday is merely an expression of public opin- ion as to what ought to be dorte,but the effeet of :that vote will be to give it tremendous impetus to the agthation even now beginning for the f.ulther curtail- ment or total prohibition of the licensed liquor traffic. Such ezpressions of opin ion must be encouraging to ?temperance peornoters,and prompt them in dropping local option and Seott Act as a means of attaining their ends; and on the other hand utilize the licensing pewer of the Provinces fur the purpose of gradu- ally curtailing the traffic—to bring influ- ence to bear upon the Legislators which will. cause the enactment of laws lessen- ing the number of licenses that may be issued in each succeeding year. In this way it great reform will be gradually brought about without undue injury to private interests, and. at the same time opportanity will be given to prepare public opinion either for a state monops cdy uf the traffic'or its total abolition, as may be clesired. * Whether the return of 111r4Gladstone to power will result in the granting of Home Rule to Ireland in the near future remains to be seen. There appears to be more than one obstacle in the way of the Nationalists realising the object nearest their hearts. In the first place the fact that Mr. Gladstone will hold office through the support of the Irish party—thereby giving them the balance of power—may cause them to be more formidable in their demands, arid to iitsist at mice on a limasure the grantiug of which might alienate many of the Grand Old Man's English followers. For it has been asserted that it number of the latter support a moderate measure of Rome Rule merely through loyalty to their leader. On the other hand, as the Irishparty have everything to gain by pursuing a discreet course, they are equally, if not more, likely to accept the bill which the new Premier will offer, if it at all approaches their ideal. One thing, however, seems certain, and that Is that the House of Lords, in view of the fact that the electorate of England has declared at the polls against home in every municipalityhundreds of young rale, will put its vet on thee:Bill when men especially are liable to Pe omitted it, comes before it. Mr. Gladstone has if not looked after, Remember that stated that in thet event he proposes to under manhood franchise every young proceed with other legislation, and drop man who is a British subjeca,21 years of the Home Rule question for a time, age, and will have been twelve months in the province by the date the time expires for making appeals, is entitled to be on the list. Do notbe caught napping, as there is little doubt the next Ontario election will be fought on the lists not being made up. A little trouble now will make victory sure in many a riding when the election comes. An Ottawa despatch says the trade returns for the 12 months with the ex- ception of the figures front British Col- umbia are now complete. The exports for the year show the magnificent in- crease of $15,228,868 over 1891, the figures being $110,795,872, as against $95,560,504. Of course when the re- turns for British Columbia"are received the totals will be changed, but it is more than likely that they will makelthe final result better even than it appears to -day owing to the development in our trade with China and Japan. The im- ports totalled$110,486,444 as against $108,553,707, an increase of $2,922,738. The duty collected shows a falling off to the amount of $2,901,370, the Jgurea being $19,122,314, as against ,023,- 685. The returns for the xfu5n of June are of a reostenceuragingch ter the imports showing an increase of $2,000,000, while there is a slight in- crease in the duty collected. The ex- ports for June were $14,18819610fainat $10,893. 671, * * * At the recent session of the county council of Essex a resolution was passed in favor of memorializing the Local Legislature to so change the statutb as to make it compulsory for attending pbysi- chin to placaed any house Ina township or municipality wherein any contagions - diseases extee • As the law reads, at pre- sent, all that the medical man has to clo is. to notify the health officer or board of health of the existeoce of such Conta- gious disease, when it becomes the duty of that official or body to see that the proper placarding is done.

The United States itetaltation poo—mow It Will Ad'ect Canadian Shipping- Some New industries in Ontario Townia-rro- labition in Manitoba. The retaliation Bill which passed the United States Senate on Friday only awaits the signature of the President to become operative. As the President origanelly sug- gested this measureitis pretty certain that he will sign it at the earliest opportunity. On the 1st of August, then, Ca,nadiart Shipping passing through the St, Ste Marie canal will be subject to the enormous tax of $2.00 a ton and. passengers will be taxed $5.00 per head. nee The retaliatory measure will prove a stunning blow to the lake traffic between Owen Sound, .Sarnia, etc., aud Port Arthur, Duluth and other poets.

He received many wenn tokens of appreciation at the recent meeting in London. Hon, J. M. Gibson Was elected hie euccesson A vote of the electors of the Province of Manitoba on the question of the prohibition of the sale of intoxicating liquors was taken at the general election on Saturday. Pro- hibition carried by an overwhelming major- ity in the city of 'Winnipeg and Province. In Winnipeg the vote was about two to one in favor of prohibition. In Portage la Prairie the figures were 710 for and 188 against. The vote has no legal significance being merely taken to ascertain the popular feeling in regard to prohibition. Now that so decisive a, victory has been obtained by the temperance people they will take the earliest opportunity of invoking the legfs- lature to give effect to the popular wish. Should' it prohibition act be carried in the legislature its validity will be contested in the courts. The new Dominion cruiser is a beauty. She steamed quietly into the bay on Tues- day night.
