NOTES AND COMMENTS The county of Pontiac, Quebec, has been. seized by the sheriff, who will probably levy taaee on the people to satisfy a judgment and coats amounting in all to about $200,000. The debt was incurred by bonusing a railway, and it is safe to predict that no other rail- way will be bonused by that country until a new set of enthusiasts have grown to maturity and the old ones have classed off the stage. Says the Toronto Globe: --- ",After making the most liberal provi- sion for education, for charitable and re- formatory institutions, for agriculture, for colonization roads, eta., the Ontario Gov- erument has a surplus of several million dollars in its treaeury-" If this be true, Sir Oliver Mowat has not done with the people's cash as he saki at Woodstock he would do at all times,uauiely,spend it from year Oyes; as it came in. and not hoard ie. He once told his Woodstock hearers that that was the best way, to spend every dollar for the public needs, and not keep it locked with the moth and rust. In face of that plede'e, if the Globe telly truly, Sir Oliver has kept back a large sum each year, until ho hat "several million dollars in the treasury Why. does he keep it there under look and key, while there is so much to be done with the aid of a little money in /every part of the land ; * i Less than a quarter of a century ago this country suffered consider able loss from the free circulation of silver of BAD FOR CANADA.

Found Frozen in the Woods. OrrAwA, Jan. 4.—John Burns, who went into the hospital on Saturday, had a ter- rible experience rap the country. He was engaged working in one of Mr. J. R. Booth's hunber camps on the Black river, some 110 miles from Mackey's sta- tion on the C,P.R„ and left the camp on December 23 with the intention of coming home to Ottawato spend his Christmas holt- days. He was met on the road eoming down by John Dosser, jogging along Four days afterwards the unfortunate man was found standing up with, his arm around a tree some six miles away from the camp he had left on the 23rd. Mr, Dasserwasreturning when he espied the unfortunate roan, and thinking that he was dead, exclaimed, "Why, that's John Burns, and he is dead." '`Not dead," replied the unfortunate man, "but nearly dead." Ile was carefully taken into the convey- ance and brought to Mackey's station.

It may be that some legislation in the matter is necessary or desirable, but we trust in view of the fact that the circulation of that class of coinage israpidly increasing in volume in Canada, probably not with- out design, that the Government will give the matter prompt attention and take the steps necessary to check the evil.
