There "are some people who ar So positive that `Commercial Unio with the State_ is just the thing f Canada, that they do no take th The Hon Thomas White has been appointed Superintendent General of Indian Affairs, and it is understood entered on his duties Monday morning, Petitions are being made to the e Government against any repeal or n' modification in the prohibition law or clow in force in the Northwest. A ecertain element want beer and light time or trouble to weigh the col dition of things that make for other a contrary opinion, They seem t think that the whole ordering of th matter lies with Canada, and that by passinga few resolutions every thing that they anticipate will be ac colnplished. ['here are, r Y h ot1ers a v are notso confident, and see in th present condition of Canada bette results to be expected than the3 would obtaiu if the regulation o s a 0 e r trade and commerce were to be. transferred from Ottawa to Washing ton. For instance, the leading Commercial journal in 'the States - Bradstreet --plainly sets forth the fact that Canada would be better off remaining as it is. In a late issue, discussing 'Our Trade with Canada,' it says :--" The figures. so far as "they go, suggest that the present "fiscal policy of Canada is render• "ing that country more independent "than ever before, of United States "sources and.. support." That was one of the great objects 01 the National Policy -to render Canada an independent nationality, The '.Commercial Unionists" wish to knock the prop from under all that, n throwus entirelyupon theten- der entirely to der mercies of the Washington poli- ticians. What there might be to gain would be indeed small in com- parison with what we would surely lose. The products of Canada in butter, cheese, cattle and fruit rank higher in the British market than do similar goods sent overfrom the Si ates. It is on account of the greater care to ken in making the butter and the cheese, and the freedom of our cattle from disease. and the greater purity in breed, which sets them away up in price above beasts and butter sent from' the States. We have it from au- thentic authority that this difference" amounted to from $ro to $is per bead -a vast sum, it will be seen, when the total amount that is sent over is taken into account. Brad street shows how the present fiscal policy of Canada is making us more and more independent of the States by pointing out that the exports of American domestic manufacturers #ell off 13 3 cent, as between the last two years. Take the item of agri cultural implements alone. They have been reduced from $123,387 to $73,99o. The difference has gone into ;the pockets of the Canadiao people. And far mote, too, for had it not been for tli,e "present fiscal policy of Canada" American manu- facturers would by this time have swamped those of Canada utterly. Seeing that the alternative market which Great Britain presents is al- ways open to us, it follows that if the Americans want our cattle or our produce they must pay its prices --or go without. If they put a cus toms duty on such,,things they pay that tax themselves, because they have first to give us the top market price -as it rules in Liverpool -be fore they can get what we have to sell. It is thus only a pretence tn say that"Commercial Union" would increase the prices to the Canadian farmer of that which he has to sell On the contrary, he would find that if the markets were to be unified the superiority which Canadian articles now enjoy would be swept away, and everything would be marked "American. There are a large number of conditions to be inquired into before the mind of any candid person should be made up in favor of "Commercial Union." It is ad- mitted on every hand that the manu- facturers would be squeezed to death. And that being done those that depend on them would have to go elsewhere, The " exodus" about which Reform politicians have been wont to complain would be increas ed four fold, while many of the con- ditions that make Canada a desir- able country to live in would be greatly decreased. The farmer. wouid thus be called upon to lose not o,.ly the supply of a growing home population, but the cattle they raised and the cheese and butter they produced would be written down in the Liverpool market to their great disadvantage. The farmers would lose in the long run more from Commercial Union than any oilier class in the community. EDITORIAL -NOTES.

Pacific, the Manitoba rail- way question is fully explained. The strong argument is the twenty years monopoly clause of' the con. tract; under which they were in- duced to build the road, and which the people of that province now desire to repudiate. The second International yacht race for the silver cup between the Volunteer (American) and the This- tle (Scotch) carne of near New York, on Friday last, and resulted in a second decided victory r k #o the e "Volunteer." The cup has been in America for 39 years, and to judge from the recent races one is inclined to court the thought that it will re- main In America ca 39 years more. Expenienced yachtmen, those ac- quainted with the Scotch mode of sailing, claim that the course adopt- ed was not suitable to the '•Thistle" the course for racing usually taken by her being considerably more ang- angling-a better test for a yacht's racing capabilities. For the want of a free 'American market in Canada, and a desire to have their goods placed with the farmers of this prosperous colony. the Gale aulkey Harrow- Co, of De- troit were compelled to establish a branch manufactory in theatown of Windsor, in which premises every part of the implement is made, the timber, even, being that of Canadian growth. Mr. McManus, the man- ager of a colonyof the travelling agents now operating in this vicinity, attests that were Commercial Union to come about. the Canadian factory in which employment is given to a groat many mechanics, would at once be suspended, and all manu- facturing confined to Detroit, there- by increasing the Company's profits and lessening Canada's population. This would be the case with many if not all of the branch concerns. Distress for Rent. Two short acts passed by the Ontario Legislaturelast session are creating agreat deal of discussion and speculation at the present time. These are the acts respect- ing distress for rent and that providing for the exemption of certain Foods from seizureon execution. Each act is a comp- lement of the other, and will come in operation on Oct. 1. The Ontario Govern- ment was session after session asked to give its endorsation to Mr. O'Connor (Bruce) bill providing for the abolition of distress for rent. By way of compromise the Goverment introduced and carried both the above acts which, if they mean anything at all, amount practi- (ally to the abolition of distress for rent. An important change brought about Eby, the act of distress is that which exempts the goods of lodgers from being seized for rent due the landlord by the tenant. The goods seize must belong to the ten- ant. If the tenant makes a general assign meat to his creditors, the landlord can only collect the arrears, of rent due a year from the time of the assignment. The goods of tenant are exempt from seizure upon certain conditions. For example a tenant is in arrears for rent and at the same time refuses to vacate the house when Warned to do so by the landlord his goods are not exempted from seizure. The purportofthe act is to give protect- ion tothose tenants who will do right themselves by complying withthe condit- ional clauses of the sot. If a tenant is say two months behind in rent, the land- lord, if he chooses, can give him fifteen days' notice to leave. If at the end of that period the tenant leaves his goods are exempt from seizure; but if he does not do so the landlord has the power to distrain goods and chattels as by former acts and apply the money to the payment of the rent and the cost of the seizure. The goods exempt from seizure provid. ing the tenant complies with the law, are: The bed, bedding, and bedsteads iu or- dinary use by the debtor and his family, The necessary wearing apparel of him- self and family.
