Beryline tlno:arl.n ago the American Government proposed to the Cana- clian Government that, if the export duty on logs were retlleve:1 the American Government would re duce the import duty on lumber $r a ttaoneantl. Lumbermen who only considered their own interest began clamoring for the acceptance of this offer, and the Dominien Govern. meet removed the duty on togs and the .'tt11E.a•icat.s reduced the lumber duty St '► th(ru sed. The lumber nets, elm bad long complained of the Aneticau duty as oppressive to their trade, thought they saw in this their salvation, that in a tete months the stoat; they had on hand would be transterred to the Uihited Stites nh:3ri te. L+Sit the advantage they loeke i for dill not come The Americans have had the benefit of free export ot kgs far seine months, but there has been no appreciable feet -eerie in the export of lumber. In fact. the market has been so flat that only a small quantity has been sold. and the lumbermen areas batt standard of butter turned out by term dairies was superior to that of cheese, Since the advent of factories Canadian cheese has so unproved in quality that it has gained an enviable place in the woild's markets, This improve- ment has been we boat intermission ard, as the Ottawa bureau points out in a bullettn just issued, the quality ot cheese may be further iterrovfd.

A very extensive cattle deal has recently been effected. This is the largest transaction that has yet been consummated in Canada.

Ft,ll- owing the example of the Americans, perhaps to some extent moved by the spirit of revenge, Spain has oeen adding to her import duties. France is cote tenaplating a similar measure, while even in free trade England the sentiment appears to be growing, that some differ• ence should be made between those nations which ]heavily tax British menu - futures, and those which tax thein. lightly. The spirit of protection is manifestly in the air. Said Lene Say, recently of his own country*, "No free traders now exist in France, and there is no prospect of the adaption in France of free trade principles during our time." And what is true of France to in a large measure true of nations everywhere. Certainly this spirit does not harmonize withthe idea entertained by many of the brotherhood of man. It must not be forgetters. however, that universal "free trade .menus the degradation of the labor of civilized countries to that of the worst . paid labor of the world." And whether brotherhood requires that those nations which have most advanced haveappreciate thecom- forts learned to iate alt- ee co forts of modern civilization shall place themselves in competition, with, say the Chinese, whose physical wants aro no- toriously few, and who con consequent- ly afford to work for a mere trifle com- paratively, is no question that may be properly debated, ister o£ Agriculture. The expediency to that time cheese was made with- of Mr Bronson's appointment to a place • out any regular system, the farmers in the cabinet is not so close, however. dabbled in it each according to his own lights, the product being Iarge ly a coarse, colorless article, the appearance of which hardly inspir- ed confidence among buyers, The We hardly ever read, says an exchange even in those winterdays,withoutfinding reports of sheep slaughtered by roving curs --they have "all seasons for their own" ; an ever present fact fully justi- fying the contention that, "if one thing more than any other demands legislation prompt and effective, it is this canine curse." Another writer touches the same, and an associate and costly nuis- ance, and gives his idea as to practic- able remedy :-- "I am obliged to house the sheep every night the year round and to keep a watch on then r by day, in order to ward off the useless curs which roam my fields, some- times unattended. sometimes at the heels of idle and mischievous boys of the neigh- borhood, sometimes accompanied by pro- fesional sports from the cities -for whose benefit our dog and game and fish laws seem to have been enacted If we could have a game warden whose duty it should be to prosecute and imprison every man 'hunting' an another's ]ands, the farmer could afford to he taxed to pay such war- den for his set vice Not a season passes but these privileged sports do great injury on our farms by their dogs worryiug our sheep. by killing our songsters and useful birds and by setting fires in woods and fields- Let us have laws to make 'game' of dogs and to protect farmers from all hunters except slavers of dogs.
