The McKinley bill fixed f for said purpose. Therefore be it remised. the duty at 3o cents, and the Sen- ate Finance Committee reduced it to 25 cents a bushel. The Buffalo newspapers claim that malsters have invested $7,500,000 xn malt houses to handle Canadian barley, and that a duty of 25 cents a bushel will ruin the business and injure the elevating interest of Buffalo. Perhaps, observes the Rochester Democrat, (protectionist), the Sen, ate will listen to the present com- plainton the barley tariff and adopt a tariff of 15 or 2o cents a bushel, SURPLUS FOOD PRODUCTS. Mr. Secretary Blaine is advising the people of the United States not to reduce the duty on raw sugars unless the Cuban and: West Indian Islands, the Central acid South American states that export sugar to the -United States first consent to remove the tax which they now impose on United States food pro- ducts—flour, pork and the like.. Or, as Blaine puts it : "We have an immense surplus of food pro- ducts ; we want to find a better market for them ; and we ought not to remove the tax on sugar without a corresponding move on the part of the sugar•preducing countries in favor of our breadstuffs and meats." Here is the way the Chicago Tribune puts the same thing: -- A Washington dispatch says: Gov. (wear, Mr. Henderson of Iowa, Dlr. Cannon of Illinois, and other mem- bers t the house said to -day that un- der no circumstances would they consent to abandon the free sugar clause of the 11IeKtnley frill. Messrs Gear, Henderson, Cannon, °anti others" doubtless are ready to ex- plain on the stump to their farming constituents a couple of months hence why they deemed it Hest to take off these duties in such a way as nut to benefit the \t'esrcrn farmer, when they could have been removed in such a way as to open to him tho large markets of the South American continent and re. Hero hila of his surpluses of wheat when converted into flour and of corn when converted into beef, pork. hates or lard. It will take silver tongued orators this fall to convince the western voters that their representatives did a wise thing when they deliberately threw away the key that would have opened the Latin- American markets to them. They will have to convince them that they are smarter men and better statesmen than Blaineaino ,on tariff matters. They ma y find it a tough task. Erastus Wiman,'Globe and Mail persist in telling the Canadian fanners that there is a splendid market for all their surplus product in the United States. There is no such market; and if there were the United States farmers would never think of giving it to the Canadian farmers. They are bent on keeping their own market for themselves and they are not likely to share it with Canadians --they are not such fools. It is is he who makes the trade policy of the United States, and he is too wide awake to give away any advantages he possesses in his own market to his neighbors that is out of his line. that the Warden and Clerk be authorized to repeat the Provincial. Parliament at its next mission:to so amend the act that muni- cipal councils may be enabled to procure material for road purposes ^without loss of time in cases where sudden breaches might cause serious damage to the travelling pub- lio, and consequently loss. and inconvenience to the municipalities. ---Carried; It, Graham's name was, on motion, sub, stituted for that of P. Felly en the Salaries Committee fer the present sittings of the Council. The Legislativee provision per. xnitting persons erecting wire fences under certain conditions, to enclose a large portion of the highway, was found to act so injuriously to public interest its repeal was affect- ed at the last session of the Ontario Lie islature. This fact is not gen- erally known. and parties are still enclosing a portion taf the public road, under the impression that they are conaplying with the law. It is well for them and ethers to know that since the day upon which the royal assent was given to the repealing Act, the bth of April last, all inclosures of lands taken from the road allowance under the provisions of the repeat- ed law are illegal, and restitution; can be demanded and must be made,. musts 0 iNAIISTRr.

A pious thought has been sug- • gested to Mr. Mercier by his friends. He has been told that he ought to go to Rome and thank the Pope tor favors conferred on him. This, coming after his signal victory in the provincial elections. If Mr. Mercer should take the advice given him he might include the thanks of Mr. Mowat as well.

The salary is $5,000 a year ; just think of it 1 This same Farrar claims that he wrote Sir John and the Conserva- tive party into pov'er through the N. P,, and this sane individual, made an attempt to write Sir John and his party out of power in 1886 but failed. Mr. Farrar has a snap as to salary but his contract will last a lifetime.

A cable states that cases of Cholera have broken out in Brittany and also in Lyons and Marseilles. There is a great trepidation at Paris, where the water snpply is so short, that some of the suburbs and a few of the city wards arenow drawing their supplies directly from the Seine, and this condition of things has always been favorable to the spread of typhoid. At the same time it leaves the debilitated system a prey to the invasion of pestilence. France, however, has a good cholera record, and Paris, with her world -famed drainage, has probably little to fear. Statistics show that France is not susceptible to the disease as compared with other countries of Europe. The numbers attacked in previous epi- demics have been as follows : - Russia i in 20 ; Austria, i in 30 ; Poland r in 32 ; Holland r in 144. ; France r in Soo ; and Germany r in 700. These figures are based on later epidemics. Lake 'Huron, Labrad.ori kite Just received a censi n - Our Grocery GROCERY rent Importation of andDases.

The following supplementary report of the Jail and Court House Committee was read, In regard to the report of the epeoial engineer employed to report on matters in connection with the Court House and the Registry office. As we have already dealt with the Registry office in our former re- port we do not see any reason to change that report. With regard to that portion of said Engineer's report in connection with the Court House, we recommended that the matter be laid over to the neat regular meeting of council. With regard to Dr, Rollinsmotion in oonneotion with the drainage of the jail grounds, we recom- mended that the matter be left over to the next meeting of council, and that the county engineer in the meantime make an estimate of the coat of said work and report to said meeting. It was moved in amendment to the re- port, and carried, that the special altera- tions set forth in Mr. McDougall's report in the Registry Office, be carried out under the superintendence of an engineerwith the approbation or the Government Inspector, and the report as amended was adopted.
