The elevation of Sir John Thompson to the Premiership of the Dominion, is received with unanimous approval from the Atlantic to the Pacific by men of all shades of politics. American pensions for 1892 will cost $180,000.000, The British Army this year will cost $87,000,000 and the British navy $71,000,000. The latter guard nearly 400,000,009 people and protect $6,000,000,000 of commerce. Comment is needless. t s s Referring to the talk about a union between the C. P. -IL and the Intercol- onial, The New York Sun says f—'When the bargain is consummated, our friends in Canada may as well abandon their ef- forts to bring about a union o£ the Anglo-Saxon race on this continent." "Our friend's' may as well atop anyway, Jay Gould, the many times IiniIiionaire railway speculator, is dead. Ho was poor, very poor, when he camp into the world, and he leaves the earth with no more wealth than he possessed when he entered it. There is not a great deal of satisfaction for any one in the mere ac- cumulation of wealth. In later years Jay Gould's health was impaired by anxiety arising from looking after his millions, **ar A gentleman who has just returned from England says we can form no con- ception hero of the effect which has been produced there by the public utterances of the Minister of Finance. Mr. Foater fairly electrified his audiences by his eloquence, and his able exposition of Canada's affairs has done much to attract tho attention of the Mother Country to her greatest colony. What impresses practical men is this: If free trade cannot prevent profound depression, excessive competition, for- mation of Trusts, immense strikes, icon' Bested Manufactures and ruinedfarmers, wherein lies it, peculiar virtue ? Eng- land just now prosenta every one of these features. Even the alleged wick- edness of protection can't 'hold a candle' to it, ••• Pork is dear, and is being bought at $6.75. The dressed hog season, which has now commenced, is always an inter- esting subject to not only provision men and butchers, but to consumers, as pork in its fresh, salted and smoked condition is an important factor in our food sup- plies, and the question as to what prices the product is likely to rule at during the corning season is an important one. This industry will bear expansion in this country, from the fact that out of a total import by Great Britain of bacon and hams amounting to 550,100.877 lbs, Canada only supplies 6,348,160 lbs. of this food material. In fact, as far as the British food supply is concerned, the Iist seems to indicate that the great- est possibilities of the future, so far as the English market is concerned, rests in raising hogs, cattle and sheep, and in exporting their products, fully prepared, such as cheese, butter, wool, meats and lard. Raising wheat for Ontario farm- ers has had its day. Comparing the price of pork, the as Trade Bulletin says that last year at ttii8 time tine market for uressed hogs opened at $5.60 per 100 lbs., and at the close of the year sold down to $5.40 for good stock, at times during the season bringing $6. This fluctuation of price will cease so soon as the large packing house proposed, is es- tablished in London. It will cure for the British market and will at all sea- sons require all available hogs. In this there will be considerable advantage to the farmer, inasmuch as he can sell his hogs alive and thus realize about fifty cents more on every head than by offer- ing them as dressed hogs" It was re- marked a few lays ago by a prominent dealer that "the day will come when not a porker will be slaughtered by • the farmers find other hog raisers, and everything pertaining to the animal, from the carcass to the hair, blood and entrails, will be utilized; as they now are in the .United States. The London packing leersewill not materially affect the smaller local institutions; it will cure pr,uoipftlly f«r the British markets, and although it may increase the price of hogs, the curing and trucking of the meat by farmers will be stoppedto a considerable extent. At present almost every store is overloaded with salt pork brought in by farmers. M. 0.

The Department of Agriculture has received information that the Suffolk Horse Sooiety of the United States has joined the many other similar societies in agreeing to the admission of Canad- ian atock to competition at ;the [iWor1d's Fair. Canadian stock, horses, cattle, sheep and pigs, can now compete in classes for which the total money prizes amount to $27,800. besides which there are six gold and five silver medals offer- ed. • • • Mr. Gardner, chairman of the British Board of Agriculture, has given a pledge on behalf of the Government that the restriction recently imposed on Canad- ian cattle imported into Britain will bo removed as soon as Canada has proved beyond doubt that the Dominion is free from pleuro -pneumonia. Tho High Commissioner has communicated with Dominion authorities to have an inspec- tion made and the proof of the country's absolute immunity from the disease for- warded to London. Meanwhile those interested in the Canadian cattle trade, particularly in Scotland, are keeping up the agitation to have the restriction speedily removed. The people of Scot- laud feel it badly, as they made a good thing out of buying and fattening Can- adian stockers. " In the South. Riding of Huron there seems to be a pretty general impression that :4r. Bishop, who has so long and so faithfully represented to Liberals, will not seek re-election." The Clinton New Era, from which the above extract is taken, presumably in- tends to convey the impression that M Bishop will not seek to be the candidate of the Liberal party at the nextelection; if he were he would eurely seek re-elec- tion. However, the Era can rest assured that Mr. Bishop will be a candidate at the next election. While Mr. McLean, whom the Era proloees as a fit successor to 111r. Bishop, has a strong claim on the party, yet he is not strong enough to pull the party strings from the present worthy incumbent of the seat. Mr. B. has a great many friends, and is the only candidate who has a ghost of a show in contesting the Riding with Mr. D. 'Weismiller, the popular Conservative stendard•bearer. It was always thus with the Managers of the Liberal peaty. When they have a faithful servant they are not satisfied until they have him be- headed. At present Sir Oliver Mowat is the subject of censure because of his professed allegiance to Great Britain ; and Mr, Bishop, a true follower is con- tinually threatened with displacement, simply because someone else envys him his seat—not at all certain. THE WIDE WORLD. Cholera bas reappeared in Evince, and is causing much alarm. Cardinal Gibbons favors the opening of the World's Fair on Sundays. Tho Panama canal scandal continues to absorb public attention in France. An observatory is being built on the top of Mont Blanc at an altitude of 4,800 metres. Capt. Schminekey, of Baltimore, Md., claims to have invented an electric sleigh which will go fifteen miles an hour. There has been a general resumption of the tin plate industry in Wales, resuitingin extensive orders from the United States. The monetary scheme of Mr. de Roths- child, the British delegate, has been reject- ed by the committee to which it was re- ferred. Herbert Gladstone says the new Home Rule scheme attributed to his father is a forgery which in no way represents his views. Smallpox is extending its ravages through- out England, and in some places the doctors are working night and day in inoculating the people. Paul Jordan, who died in the county in- firmary at Findlay, Ohio., on Friday, claim- ed to have been an illegitimate son of Napo- leon the Great. The London Local Government Board are preparing a new and stringent series of regulations to guard England against the recurrence of cholera next spring. A sensation has been created in the Eng- Iish literary world by the discovery in Edin- burgh of a system of wholesale forgery of autograph literary and historic, documents. The Christopher Columbus, an immense whaleback passenger steamer which will run between Chicago and the World's Fair gronnds, was launched at West Superior, Wis., Saturday.

A Curious Bigamy Case. Tonoxro, Deo. 7,—.A. curious case came before the Common Pleas Divisional Court yesterday afternoon in Queen v. Torry—a case of bigamy. The defendant is John W. Terry, who in the month of June, '80, met and married a Mrs. Begarry, who he thought was robed in the garb of recent widowhood. Finding he had been beguiled in marrying a grass widow he drowned his remorse by marrying Annie Keats. Mrs, Begarry, whose realhusband is enjoying the soft breezes of a more salubrious clim- ate, thereupon brought action against Mr. Terry for non-support, but upon being tried at the January Assizes of '91, the jury acquitted him. Six months after- wards Mrs. Begarry, at the instance of the Crown brought an action of bigamy against Terry, which was recently tried at the Sessions before Judge Macdougall, who in his charge to the jury told the jurors that they should take for granted that Mrs. Begarry was his lawful wife in the absence of evidence to the contrary. .As a result the jury found a verdict of guilty and the defendant now appeals upon the question as to whether the judge was right in so doing and on other points raised by the defendant'a counsel in objection to the judge's charge, Robbed Itis Benefactor.

NEW Yonx, Dec. 5, — The history of Jay Gould from the barefooted boy who wandered over the rough hills of Deleware County to the railroad king whose wealth was estimated at 860,000,000 is one of the most remarkable amonour self made men. His life for the past few months has been a constant battle against the inevitable and all means that medical skill and the inter. JAX GQALD. est that friends and relatives could suggest were employed to prolong the financier's life. Ho was taken about nu private luxur- ious cars to places where milder air and the absence of business excitement might be ex- pected to work a recuperation of his ener- gies. But to no avail. Mr, Gould controlled about 13,000 miles of railway lines, No two estimates agree as to the amount of Mr, Gould'a fortune. The most conservative estimates place it at about 500,000,000, while some people in Nall street, who think they know some- thing about his accumulations, figure that he must havegotten togetherfully $100,000,- 000. Mr. Gould was born in West Settlement, a backwoods village at Roxbury, Delaware county, New York, May 17th, 1836. He was the son of Jan B, Gould, it fanner who was fairly well-to-do. se Dynamiter of Finance. Lcnrnm-, 1)eo. 4. --Irl commenting on the death of Jay Gould, the News says : "It was MrGould's ambition to he the richest man in the world, but he died disappoint- ed. The Vanderbilts, Asters, and Rocke- fellers all Bead him. Yet all honor to tho greatest money-maker of any age or clime. He was less it man than a machine for churning wealth, Napoleon's combinations wore never vaster, and there wore many points of resemblance between the two men. It will bo impossible to explain one phase of civilization without a frequent mention of Mr, Gould's name, therefore lie is sure of a place in history." The Chronicle, in recounting the career of men whom Gould is said to have ruined, coils him the poet of society, a dynamiter of finance, a man possessing a power that althe Czars might envy with the ethics of the ligator. Tho Times says: "Afr, Gould's death means the removal of a disturbing influence of vast and incalculable force. The man and the position he held were products of American life. Such a career could hardly have been possible elsewhere than in America. honey is raised in America to a rank higher than it can usefully occupy, owing to the absence of class distinctions." The Standard says : "No honest bio- grapher can adhere to the maxim 'Deal charitably with the dead' when the wrecker of industries and impovisher of mon conies up for judgment. It is impossible to point to a single enterprise that he benefited or to a solitary act of self-sacrifice on his part. It would be affectation to pretend that the world is made poorer by his departure." MEANS A FRESH APPEAL. To the Country if Gladstone's Borne Rulo Bill is .A.ccepted or Rejected. LONDON, Dec. 5.—It is stated 'Michael Davin desires to resign his present seat in Parliament, and to run again without priestly assistance, but under the charges of undue clerical influence he will not be permitted to accept the Chiltern Hun- dreds. Modifications will be made in the Home Rule measure of 1SS6 as follows : Clause 4, restricting the powers of the Irish Legislature, is enlarged by further defining the limitation of the powers of the Legislature to interfere with the endow- ment of religion or to impose disability or confer privilege on account of religious be- lief. Further guarantees relating to denomi- national education are provided, Next the constitution of the legislative body will be modified by raising the number of members of the first order of the Upper House, who, as in the first hill, shall hold office for 10 years. The much -disputed clause 27, removing the Irish peers from the House of Lords and the Irish members from the House of Com- mons, disappears in the new bill, the repre- sentation of Ireland in the Imperial Parlia- ment remaining the same as at present. To meet the threatened active refusal or passive resistance of the Ulsterites to the Irish Parliament by the non-payment of taxes, sub -section 4 of clause 19 is to be ex- tended so as to insure the employment of the police and military forces to enforce the payment of all taxes Leviable by the Irish Parliament. Another alteration relates to disputes arising between the Irish Legislature and the Imperial Parliament. If Mr. Gladstone passes the bill in the House of Commons, it is certain to be re- jected by the House of Lords. This will involve a fresh appeal to the country. Even if the peers are at once submissive to the will of the people and allow the measure to become law, the alteration in the representation in the Imperial Parlia- ment consequent thereon will require another general election, while the initiation of the new Irish administration will draw heavily upon Mr. Gladstone's energies.

Accumu}atingin the blood, it attacks the fibrous tissues in the joints and pauses agonizing pains. What is needed is a remedy to neutralize the acid, and to so invigorate the kidneys and liver that all waste will be carried off. Hood's Sarsaparilla is heartily raoommended by many whom it has cured of rheumatism. It peeresses just the desired qualities, and so thoroughly purifies the blood as to pre- vent occurrence of rheumatic attacks. We suggest a trial of Hood's Sarsaparitls by all who suffer from rheumatism. Mr. Thos.
