THE CANADIAN TARIFF.
(?'Som the Glas(lnwNowe,)
Our i nportant colony, the Dominiot
of Ortllada, Balled at times " the bright
est gem in the British Crown, des
not see it advisable to go for what ie
popnitarly known as free trade, Odd
as it may appear, the general publit)
have been living itt the opinion that
oaoaroolstifee have not been imposing
import duties ou go.'de from the
mother country, whil=e the fact is that
Paver since the mother oouutry went for
whet ire popularly known its free trade
tho Qoloui3a have been pine. in the
opposite direction. awl have been itn•
puitting higher and edit higher ditties on
114 -porta under the plea that they are
required fur revenue purposes, wiliest
all who are acquainted with the facts
of the ease know that really the pur-
pose is protection-- protot)tiou to home
industry. True, in the earn of Canada,
it has moved upwards s.nd downwards,
but still the average of a (le,:ade hits
been a. marked advance. Thi will be
boat illustrate l when the fact is stated
that about 1830, the tariff on textile
fablioe at the ports of lleutrl'atl and
Quebec was 21, iter cunt., and that it
lead advauoed to 17k per cent. for the
whole Dominion wheu this pre:+eut
startling tariff was announced. This
tariff will prove prohibitory again et the
itaporting of heavy woollens, cotton
goods, and to a largo extent of silks,
and the export of these goods from title
i ouutry to Canada will Cease just as
quickly as they can get maehiuery
erectea for the ivanufaoture of the same.
The effect of this, all must admit, oan-
1)ot be other than to throw out of em-
ploytneut tens of thousands of artizana
and rail operatives in this country.
Now, all this does look to the Free -
trade school very ridiculous and suici-
dal on the part of Canada; but ttltioh
colony or country indicates any prao-
Lies.l intention of following our fiscal
policy, exoeptiug one of our Australian
eolouios ? Wisdom surely seems to be
restricted iu its range of expansion
since Cobden and Bright made the dis-
eovery that we had only to proclaim
free trade to the world, disband our
.armies and navies, and that all uations
and peoples shoull follow our example,
and we should beat our swords into
nlouglisbare and our spears iuhitt)lrun-
ing• hooks, and lei ru the art of war no
more. Yes, that time will come, but it
will not be till everyone does as he
wishes to be clone by—till lying and
cheatiug cease and rival schoolboys
cease from fighting.
� E TIMES
1
•
\Vo have at present at the bead of
our Cabinet a wise old man. Iu the
days of the Cobden and Bright revela-
tions ha was yoaug, but even then he
could forecast the future. In one of
his sperkliug, telling speeches when,
nutter the leadership of Lord George
L'eutiuck, !ie, then 1Ir. Disraeli. criti-
cized the proposed new policy of free
trade, when he expressed himself to the
effect, addreislog the Hone of Com-
mons—°' If by free trade is meant the
reeiprocal free exchange of comtnodi.
•ties between 0 -teat Britaiu awl foreign
natious, then I and a freo trader ; but
if by fees trade you mean free imports
from foreign nations aucl hostile tariffs
by foreign nations ttgaiust British ex-
ports, than I ant nota free trader ;" and
then went on to point out that " it
would be a more politic course for
Gsat Britain to legislate for absolute
foe trade with our Indian Empire and
colonies, and such 'foreign nations as
would reciprocate," &c. Now, we ven-
ture to say that the time has come to
remind our readers that it would have
been far better for the future of our
manufactures and commerce had this
policy boon adopted. We confess we
do not see how this country can extri-
c de itself from the position into which
our so -galled free trade has drifted us,
and will centimes to drift us. At the
introduction of this so•called Free trade
policy our colonies got notice that they
were at perfect liberty to legislate for
thcmeelves in all commercial matters,
and to become, as soon as euitet' their
views, independent of the mother coun•
try. Now, suppose Canada to become
independent by acquiring wealth at the
'expense of the docadouco of our trade
and rnttnufrtetures at home., let us re-
aaenlbsr that it is the third maritime
State in the world, and this Moans
that, being separated from us, the num-
ber of seamen from which our navy
could be manned in thne of war will be
greatly diminished, and in the event of
Canada joining the United States we
shall then become a, second-rate mari-
time power. 'Ws' have had thirty years
of this so.called free trade, and with
other thirty years lit, and the absenoe
of war amongst foreign nations, the
memory of Cobden and Bright will not
bo (Modelled.
MALE AND Intl N A E FLIRTS.
It is remarkable, but nevertheless
true, that, as a rule, flirts, both male
female, do not marry gnickly. The
chancey oro that a girl who becomes
engaged at eighteen, and goes on be•
coining engaged and disengaged, as is
this custom for flirts to do, ultimately
settles dowu to a confirmed old maid.
If she does wed, as a general rule she
develops into a viruleut wasp, makes
her brisbaud miserable and brings up
her children badly. It is not very dif-
sieult to find reasons why flirts do not
merry. Seusible men admire in a wo-
nlan,l,olnething besides a pretty face slid
'»gaging uzauuers, They love intellect,
common beose Itnd heart qualifications,
which the flirt does not possess. The
true wnnign allows her affections NH
play, and is not ashamed of them. She
will not lead a mac to believe she cares
for him when elle does no such thing;
hhe will not flirt with hitn just for the
cake of flirting, She has a true con-
ception of what is right, and possesses
d great de& more common sense. She
had derived her educatiou from some-
thing more than three vol Imo novels'
and the society of emptypated. She
can be thoroughly lnerry,but she can be
merry without being idiotic. She may
attract leas attention in the drawing
room than a Birt does—because she is
less noisy and abstrusiva—bnt, for all
that, she will be married sooner, and
make her husband a better and truer
wife. A true woman does not care for
the spoony yoaug man. She dielikes
his foppishness, the vivid compliments
ho pays her, and his effeminacy, He
quickly finds this out and leaves her in
peltce. Thus, if he ultimately gets mar-
ried it is to the flirt,and tbe happy pair
load the jolliest cat -and -dog life im•
agivablo.
G001) FOR WARTS.
The popular cure for warts, and
other like excrescences, are very num-
erous, and vary in almost every coun-
try. One mode of charming thele
away is to take an elder shoot and rub
it on the part ; then cut as many
notches on the twig as you have warts,
bury it in a plane where it will soon de-
cay, and, as it rote away, the warts will
disappear. This is a southern charm.
In Yorkshire, and through the north
generally, the cure for warte is to take
a black snail and rub tbe excreeoencee
with it, then impale it on a thorn, and
leave it to perish. As it dries up and
disappears the warts will vanish. Ac-
cording to another form of the charm,
the warts must be rubbed with a fre•:h
snail for nine successive nights. Still
another wart charm is to take the
shell of a broad bean, and rub the
affected part with the inside thereof ;
bury tine shell, and tell no one about
it, as it withers aa ay, so will the warts.
