Winnipeg and Manitoba, are rapidly filling up with Gilt, making the defeo- tive dreigege e, constantly increasing evil. Besides these impediments to oultivalion, such crops as eau be pro- duced are comparatively worthless by lank of facilities for reaching a market. There was nover a more disappointed set of emigrants than those who have been cajoled into tryiug their luck in this muoh extoled 'paradise, " The above is clipped 'tom the Lon- don Adrert'iser of the 28th ult, The Refer& papers of Ontario are, we are sorry to say, pursuing the same course with regard to the Northwest as their Yankee ootenis., lettlug no opportunity pass by which they oan ruin the beat interests of the country, and the Lon. don A(leertis<.r bas taken the lead in this work, it having also had a cam missioner in the Northwest, and the acoount which that worthy scribe gives is something akin to the above produc- tion. Perhaps the Reread man made his report from the same plass as the Titer reporter, who never left the city of Winnipeg, and from what he saw thele in the wet season, name to the conclusion that the whole country was the same. But for the informa- tion of the "pricker of the Northwest bubble," as the Tiler claims to be, and our Y anlcee totem., we would say that since the spring of 1S78 tare numbers from the neighborhood of Exeter have gone out to that horrible place that is not fit to live in, and few of them have returned. Among those who went,some had considerable capital, while otllert had not so much, and they all say they are well satisfied with the change. Some of our own acquaintances have harvested from 25 to 50 acres of orop this harvest, so that it can not be so bid a piece as our Yaukee cousin and his Canadian allies would have ns be• lieve. The actions of our friends across the lines are easily accounted for, but it is difficult to understand why the same course is being pursued by the Reform press of Ontario in reference to tbeir own country. We would not accuse them of being the hirelings -of snnie interested land nom parry in the United States, but to say the least. it looks suspicious. The e`.ectivns• for representatives to the Dena_:nion Parliament for North Uuterio a.nt1, West Torouto came off on Saturday last, Mr,. Wheeler, the cppo. anion candidate, being returned for the former constituency au(1' Mayor Beatty, the ministerial caudidal<te,f'or tare latter, so that the rspresentatien• in the House will remain as it was before. The re- tnrn of 1Ir. George Wheeler for North Outerm by a majority. of 165• over Mr. Gibbs is a result not unl+ooked• for. lir. Wheeler was elected for the same eon- stitueney 1u 1979, but was unseated for bribery, and: as the sympathy of the el,:otos generally goes with the unseats., candillate,•no one is surprised at tpite result. In West Toronto Mayor Beatty has been elected by a majority of 241 over Me. Ryas, the Reform candidate..

In this• case' t'be per- petrator of the crime was caught in the act by the night police. The frequency of this kind of crime both in ianada and the r nited States calls for the en- forcement of the eetreme penalty the law provides.

Tilley's financial statement, made before Parliament shortly after assuming office, he estimated the rev- enue for 1879.8'0 at $24,450,000. As seen above the actual amount collected for that year was $24,708,585, or $b18,- 585 more than the estimates, The total expenditure of the year was $25,- 101,712. Deducting from this the aneonut revenue collected, as stated above, we arrive at the deficit for the year. viz., $808,127. In his estimates the Finance Minister counted on a de- ficit of eficitof $500,000, Moet Canadians, ex- oept perhaps a few of the Grit persua- ainn, will cos wit h pleasure that the +leficit is over 15200,000 less than was expected. et will also be seen that the deficit is comparatively trifliur;, aucl it niay with oontitlenm be anticipated that the financial year which closed on the 80th of June last will be the last of the years of deficit ruder the present admin atratlon, Canadian Enterprizes.

The competition arising has been the carne of the delay. It is more than probable the ministers may succeed in securing anal in the provisions as to the upset price of lands to settlers during n oertaiu term of years whilst such lands are under the control of a company. Much interest is manifested in Manitoba and the Northwest as the oonutry far, settlement as regards agriculture and stock raising.
