It is to be hop that the pending er-
hitration for the settlement of ae-
eounts between the provinces of Quebec
and Ontario will come to a inure eatis-
factory conclusion than former efforts
in the same direction. These accounts
are unsettled since Confederation, the
Board of Commissioners appointed at
that time having failed to satisfy ether
side.

A circular is now being iseued to
steamship agents, putting in force the
new 5:78W1111 of bonueee for emigrants
actually settling in Canada, It is too
early yet to form an opinion on the
prospective results, but 1 is thought
likely to produce some increase during
the coming season of emigration. 1.'he
English farmer delegatee report will
probably be issued at the end of this
month.

Tho total fire loss in the United
States and Canada fur 1800 was 8100.-
998,345, the smallest loss in five Yea..
The tutal in 1889 was $131,949,250 ; in
1888, $123,290.520 ; in 1887, $129,261n-
400 ; and in 1880, $110,080,000. While
the decrease is reassuring, the loss is
still far too large. With a little more
carefulness on -the part of the property
owners and better provision for com-
batting fires ia towns and villages, it
could easily be reduced by one-half.

Pour elections to fill vacancies in the
Legislature will be held on the '23rd -in
the two Norfolks,North Perth and East
Durham. The three first constituencies
were held by Liberals, and the last by
an Equal Righter. North Norfolk was
rendered vacant by the death of John B
Freeman South Norfolk by the unseat-
ing of Wm.iCharlton, North Perth by
the unseating of Dr Ahrens, and East
Durham by the same fate befalling Equal
Righter Campbell,

The execution of Lamontague and
Blanchard at Sherbrooke excited more
than passing notice. They recall the
fact that this was a hangman's year.
The record is a long one -Smith at Lon-
don, Davis at Belleville, Dupois at
Quebec, Spencer at Kamloops, Birchall
at Woodstock, Day at Weiland and
Blanchard and Lamontague at Sher-
brooke. It is to be trusted that the
epidemic of crime preceding these
events will now be stayed.

Saturday's Canada Gazette shows that
the expenditure of the Dominion Gov.
ernment for December was $2,720,333,
of which $2,256,553 was charged to in-
come and $469,781 to capital. The re-
venue for the first six months of the
fiscal year was $2,982,943. During the
six months the expenditure charged to
capital and income reached $10,460,575,
while the revenue was $19,410,678. The
surplus of $2958,103 will, the officers
of the departnient hope, be sufficient
with the current revenues to meet the
heavy payments failing due this month.
There is good reason for the belief
that the Canadian Pacific Railway Com-
pany will, at an early date begin the
work of connecting its system directly
with the New York lines by way of the
Niagara River.. The link required will
be constructed between Woodstock and
the the New York border. As a pre-
liminary, it is understood that the Can-
adian Pacific Company is promoting the
construction of a new bridge over the
Niagara River to connect its proposed
line with the United States railways.
The bridge will be erected immediately
below the falls.

A number of our contemporaries ap-
pear to be alarmed that our export trade
in horses is injured by the McKinley
Bill, and prophesy that Canadian breed-
ts will have to be atiefi ed with lower
prices; that in fact, outside of the de-
mand by the lumbermen, there is little
or no market IA one way the McKin-
ley 131111 will tezid. to briug about a much
needed reform in Ontario. It will set
some of our farmers to thinkiug that it
will pay them better to breed a good
class of horses than the mongrels some
of them have been raising. There is
an unfailing Imam' from the 'United
States for good half -bred horses, car-
riage cobs, Clydesdales and Shires.
They are just as keenly looked after
now as before the McKinley Bill went
into force, and Canadian breeders can
get just as much money for them as
they ever did,

Tho Journal of Commerce remarks :
Tho cattle trate o C mada. is assuming
large proportione, and it is probable
that owinr to the new United States
tariff abutting out Canadian agricultural
products, hay especiolly, the trade will
assume still greater proportiona in the
coming years. Therefote, the attempt,
wietz:/t. Plimsoll represents, to ruin
the trade becomes of prime impertance
to the whole country. It may be true
that the slaughtering of the cattle on
this side of the water would create other
industries, but the facts and data are
not at present available to establish this
contention. At any rate, we know that
the Americans are anxious to be allowed
to send their live cattle to England. 11
it pays better to slaughter on this side,
why are they thus anxious ? In England
also, their is opposition of the keenest
sort among cattle -raisers to the import-
ation of Canadian animals. But the in-
vestigation has established the fact that
Canadian shippers are prepared to make
every possible arrangement for the well-
being ot the stock on the ocean voyage,
and that is ell that Mr Plinisell can reit-
zonably expect. Mr Plimsoll's refusal to
answer any questions in relation
to the charges in his pamph-
let, and his stubborn adher-
ence to the statements he had made, in
spite of the most convincing evidence
to the contrary, have injured the cause
he has attempted to champion. Good
will doubtless result from the investig-
ation. Both the welfare of the cattle
and of the men who attend them will
be batter looked after, and should the
government act upon the suggestions
made, as a result of the investigations
there will be no further cause for com-
plaint.
A census af the German empire was
taken last month, and shows the same
notable growth of cities and towns observ-
able in ether countries, In five years the
number of cities with the population over
100.000 has increased from 21 to 26, and
in the same period some of the increases
were very large. Berlin has now a popul-
ation of 1,574,485, Hamburg 570,430,
Leipaic 353,272, Munich 334,710, and
Cologne 282,537.

Some of our contemporaries over the
border are taking great pride out of the
fact that their lake marine is much larger
than that of Canada. They count a fleet
of over two thousand vessels, one half of
which are steamers, and " point with
pride" to the fact that the ratio of increase
in the value of American cargoes passed
through St Mary's canal last year was
nearly thirty fiye per cent. Meanwhile,
they assure us, British cargoes decrease
at nearly the same ratio. These facts are
interpreted as meanine that the United
States are supreme on the lakes. With-
out entering into a disputation concerning
the merits of these alleged facts, we may,
nevertheless, suggest that they are cap-
able of another ieterpretation. The
trade carried on by these vessels is a
coasting interstate trade, on the lacus -
trine border of a populous commercial
nation, and should in the nature of thins,
be much greater than the sparsely peo-
pled country lying to the north. It would
be indeed astonishing if the United States
had not a much larger lake marine than
Canada. But if we take population as a
binds for comparison. it will be found that
Canada shows to singular advantage.
At least once a yesr the privy should be
cleaned and its contents distributed over
the land. A low sled with box for this
purpose is best, and the contents if dis-
tributed on the now, will sink down and
.not be offensive during the following sum-
mer. Every privy should have a movable
box. or rather, two boxes, so that the
contents may be mixed with dry earth un -
till all there offensiveness disappears.
Nothing of valve is lost in such compoait-
ing, and the contents make a valuable
fertilizer.

Forged Promissory .Notes OONDENSED NEWS
he planting of a promissory note upon
the uususpecting farmer is an old form of
deception, and is opera'ed in a hundred
different ways. The plan of catching
farmers on sueh articles as washing mach-
ines. sickle grinde's, ete , was to induce
them to become agents ia their sale and
sign au agreement in taidicate. one paper
to be held by the farmer, one by the eon
tracting party and one to be sent to the
manufacturing Orin. The agreement held
by the farmer was all right, but by some
means the other paper always turned out
to be a proinissera note for 6100. There
can be no doubt that a promissory note
lies hidden beneath the paper the fernier
believes he is signing, and that, by a little'
manuel dexterity the dishonest agent cau
get the unsuspecting man to sigu any
document he p'eases. Scone of these
documents are very ingeniously arranged,
a couditional order, or even a receipt for
storage being easily transmitted iuto a
uegotia'ole note. Here is an agreement
that looks innocent enough, but when torn
off along the vertical dotted line between
the words 'or' and 'bearer' it becomes
transformed into an ugly promissory
