IT is thought by experts that the • census, to be taken Juoe 1at 1890, will show a population in the United Stetee of 61,000,000 -an inereese of 14,000, 000 over that of 1888, A Movie is on foot in the In S. with a view of introducing a Bill to gompel the adoption of a system of parcels -post in that coontry. MR. !TORII WAX/MAILER) of Philaciele ethia, will take a place in the cabinet of President Harrison. M. Wanamaker is one of the shrewdest men in the Union and is the greatest merchant on the continent. His portfolio will be that of Postmaster General. ---- • JAexsorernen is herself again. The shadow of the plague has departed. In • the land of Flowers, the first frosts marked the elose, instead of the begin- ning, of the winter of discontent, which •the fever -tainted surnnaer had made for that stricken region. Now the refugees are flocking back. with the birds from the nortlnand all is brightness, anim- ation and renewed hope. The stir thet is being made by the nurserymen of the United States' is a thnely illustration of what kindof a reciprocity we may expect to get from our neighbors. Last spring the U. S. Government took the duty off fruit trees, plants, shrubs fruits, etc •entering that country, as did also Can- ada reciprocate by a • similar move. Now the LT. S. nurserymen finds that Canadian nursery men can compete successfully with them, and are asking congress to re -impose the duty on Can- adian nursery stock. It is evident that our neighbors do not want reciprocity with Canada only in cases where they -will be the sole gainers. IT is somewhat remarkable that the price of wheat in Chicago one year ago, two years ago, and three years ago was virtually the same. The price of No 2 red winter wheat in elevator there one year ago was 92i cents, two years ago the same price, and three years ago 93 cents. Although the price now is about 101, and generally regard- ed above the export basis, it cannot be called high, being only about 8 cents per bushel higher than for the corres- ponchne time of the lase three years, when both the visible and the invisible • were very much larger than at present, and is now reduced to so low a point that conserva,tiya parties estimate that • for the next six months they can only • spare 15,000,000 bushels for export. --- A. LETTER from C. W. Riches, of Park River, Dakota, conveys the first authentic information of • the extreme • sufferings and privation among the Nor- • wegian settlers in WesternWalsh county. iifert with a relief party reports that • they found about seventy families in about as destitute circumstances as it is • poi'sible for human beings to be and still exist. Many were found with barely enough clothing to corer their •nakedness, and that of the thinnest Material. Shoes were almost unknown. These farmers have lived on their little capital until nothing remained. Most of them have been living on o, kind of • porridge made by cooking frosen green Wheat and oats, stuff not fit to feed a hog. One family had not seen any our • for six weeks. The people have been dividing their potatoes with each • other until now they are gone too, --- RETtrinee to the War °Mae of Great Britain show that despite the efforts to obtain a home supply of army horses • the presene stock is still not sufficient to mount two thirds of the men. It is expected that further Canadian horses will eaon be sought to meet the press ing needs of the army. Our export in horses is expanding, as the following tabulated statement from the latest reterns will show: 1887. 1886. inerease No. of horses 18,779 16.525 1254 Value $2,268,853 42:147.584 $121,245 The value per animal in 1887 war a trifle over $120. An analysis by returne of trade tables tshos that horses to the value of $38, 230 were exported to Great Britain in 1887 as against $19,279 worth in 1886. Since Confederation the number of horses exported from this country was 261,750. During the Same period 29, 290 we're inverted for improvement. When the British authorities began to buy horses in Celled& the jealousy of agriculturists in England was excited aed a, demand was made that the home breeders be enceuraged. That has evidently failed to supply the demand, for the authorities ere again looking towards Canada. Farmers shoulcl •pre. per° for One opportunity, There is money at all times in sound, Substantial horses a general utility. •Even should they not be wanted for the army they will always be in good demend for gen- eral purpOsee. Thews is no little agitation going on in the United Statee just now oti the question of the reduetien itx the rates of letter postage. At present the charge is two tents for a •letter weigh- ing one °Mace, while in Cenade the rate ie three cents for a letter weighing half an ounte-so that We pay just three times the rate that they de Ott the Other eids, But there are many mat - tore in whieh our eyetem ilea great ad-. vantages. For examplenewepapers been lifmin ted no a word Said by a proe are earried free from the ocee of pub. man in the 117, S. to cause the absorbtio lication, a service of innnenee labor and peat practical beneat. Then, again, ill in the citiee the charge for the delivery of a local letter is but one cent, whilst in the States the charge is still 2 cents. In the matter of parcel post the advan- tage is else with Canute,. kith regard to letters that are "registered" the ad- vantage is with the Canadian public, as with us the additional charge for regis- tration is but two 'cents per letter, whilst on the other side it is as much as ten cents. So that a registered letter in Canada is carried for five cents, whilst in America it costs twelve emits! The boast that the postal service in the States is more liberal than with us in Caned% is thus not so well founded as some iney suppose. Indeed the faCt that we have free postage in the matter of newspapers places Canada at the head of all nations in respect of the liberality of its postal service. Ir the whiter wheat fields of this neighborhood may be taken as fairly repreeentative of the general area of this cereal growing in Western Ontario, then the present outlook is excellent. Melting snows and ram have left the fields exposed to view, and the wheat, which is now almost altogether sown in drills, though not rank in growth, is decidedly healthy in appearance, the individual plants being uniformly vig- orous in stalk end leaf and the color a strong green. As far as seen or report- ed on the fields are free from dull, one - Mous patches of sickly looking growth. Generally speaking, there is evidence of careful drainage, heavy manuring, with early and thoreugn tillage, thus affording a seed bed in which the plants readily take a deep, firm root, and from which the rootlets take up freely the constituents of the plant itself. As a protection against unfavorable winter weather, some have tried with geed results, m addition to the foregoing, a light mulch of straw, all the better for being partly rotted. frorn exposure in the yard where it has been tramped and broken, by the cattle during fall. A farmer experimentally inclined, who thus mulched One half his wheat field -- the part most exposed to cold wind- iest winter reports exceptionally favor- able results from the light application of broken straw applied about the beginning; of winter. It is not too late yet for some of our farmers to make test in the same direction, with straw or manure. A Plea, for Canadian Indepen- dence. To the Editor of the Exeter Times. • PEAR SXR.—Note some of the objections to Independence. We shewed before some of the great benefits. The first ob- jection always urged is that of expense. Now what increased expenses would be entailed on us? Canada would not pro- fess to keep a regular standing army. It would he useless and unnecessmy. No expense would be incurred in that way. Our present malitia costs a good deal. all �f which is paid. by Canada. Nothing more would be required were we independ ent. We would have to keep representatives at some of the foreign Courts. Not an foreign Courts. Only those front whose dominions emigration to Canada was active. The principle of the U. S. of placing a Consul in all the citiesand towns of Canada, need not be followed. We get along very nicely now, by having our British Minister at Washington. What more would be required were we indepencl ent ? Nothing more, because a direct ap- pointment of our own would be much more convenient than a British appointee. Why? T3ecause at present all communi• cations regarding Comedian affairs, have to go through Downing.street, London. We would only need our Minister at Washing ton, which would be far more convenience for us than the present expensive legation placed there by Britain. In all we would not require more than a dozen or so of representatives, and in any case the expences coeld not be much nue e than $100,000 or at the very highest estimate, $l50,000 a year. Such a sum is the veriest trifle in a gross expend:ture of over thirty millions as at present. And of that amount we already pay a good salary to Sir Charles Tupper, as our re- presentative to England. Britain of course would be our most important power, and not one cent more would be required to pay for a legation there than is paid at present. Outside of legations and military, what more expense could be eutailed on us than at present? I would like any opponent of Independence to give the details of such increased expenditure. Parliament would cost no more. We pay twice es much as the U 8 paid. their President until the lett few years, when his salary was raised from $25,000 to $50,000. Nothing else Would require any change at all. Gov- ern meet ana departmental business would he run just as itt present, No increase of expenditure would be necessary or pot, sible. The only possible increase would be caused by new territory or new popu- lation, which would be increased just the same under our present regime, as Canada now pays all her own expenees. &appose then it cost be from $100,000 to $200,000 tuyear more than at present in a gross expetiditure of $30,000,000 to $35,000,000, what of it? 14 would be only, a drop in the bucket. Could, we net obtain from n000 to 50,000 additional immigrants each year as a result, who could say that the investment was not a good one? The next objection is that we would be absorbed by the United States, or require a vast military to protect us. Pactand experieece, however, do not boor out this objection. Did We sever, our conizeetion with Britain, the only been. tive to our absorbtion by Yankeedorn would at 01100 disampean, Yankee politi cio•ns, for the purpose of gainitg Irish votes ate, abut election times, green to Atglo-phobia.

The political resul might be disestrous to either one of th parties. Politicel parties in the United State have for a great many yews loeee ver evenly belancecl, and. will so continee fo a great many years to coine. Person with any political experience can easil and truly prophesy that. Political pre dilection the strongest motive power it the United States to -day, has been to years and will so contimie. Any possibl (termer to either party would be fough with envenomed ferocity. The adclitio of either Canada or Mexico to the U. wood be an unknown, uncertain, and con Eminently dangerous political element, an would, if proposed by one party receive the enmity of the other. The ti has to -day all it can well manage. With its discontented south its ettilwa.yend other monopolies, its Anterchism, its Commuesisin its capital aecl labor 'fight, and various other causes of internecine coact, the poli- ticians ot the United State, have their heeds full and will continue to have them full for all time to come. Were it not for anti•British feeliug of certain Yankee people, and a desire to get anti-British votes at election times, the absorbtion or annexation of Canada, would never be heard of in the 17 S. No more than the annexation of Mexico is. Such anti-Blitish sentiment would here eonneetion with Canada, were we an independent Republic. Canada would therefore have no more oecesion (not aa znuch in fact) to maintain a standing army than she has to -day. The next and only objection is our loy- alty to out fosteremother-13ritein. That is a good and noble sentiment; but a vast proportion oi the population of Canada to -day, was born and bred in Canada, consequently have not the enthusiastic loyalty, born of personal acquaintance. Britain has been a good and indulgent foster -mother, but the majority of Cana- dians to•day are more intensely Canadian than British. Then why should Canadian Independ- ence injure Britain? I contend it would benefit not injuie Britain. Because in- creased British and other emigra,tion woeld come to Canada instead of the U. and doing so, would be better customers of Britain, for many years to come, than as 17 S citizens. What posaible difference other than that could or would our inde- pendence make to Britain. Canada could never afford.even if independent) to make a free trade treaty vvith the U. 8-, while a heavy custom barrier was erected against Britain. 'Britain, would retaliate by scheduling our cattle et. .As a matter of finance it would not pay. Canada if independent must maintain a protective policy against the world. • Such are some of the objections againet independence. Such are the answers to them. In short it will be seen that Can- ada would gain •materially by independ- ence, which would cost only a fraction more than present expenses, while no army would be required as we need have no fear of yankep interference ; and in- stead of a disloyalty to Britain, it would, be a boon rather than otherwise to her. In short if change .Canade. must, Inde- pendence is the only possible or probable change; and even such a change proposed and publicly discussed in a right spit it it would receive the endorsation of a vast majority of Canadians to day.
