There is little. doubt that the eholere is decreasing wheee i haa for weeks past been holding death's carnival in the German city of , Hamburg, and threughout the Empire of Russia. Ocean vessels, too. US coming into Anaeriean ports without any cases ou board, and. on quarantined vessels but lane or two deaths have occurred. It is doubtful too, if death in these cases eesnited from Aeiatholera. In the eity of New York the disease, whieli it was feared had gained a foothold, has apparently beeu stamped out, there not having been a death there for seine time. In Canada there has beeir no ceees reported so far, aud withthe admirable quarantine on ocean vessels established at Grosse Isle, and other reguletions which have been made whereby all passengers from the Unit- ed States by rail are to be medically exami»ed before setting, foot on Can- adian sell,alai above all, with the speedy advent of cold weather, it may safely be pztelicted that the dread scourge will gain no foothold in this favored land of ours this year. That it may break out again uext spring is among the possibilities, but a vigil ant and etrective,scavanger service in the large cities and towns will prove a great bar to its progress, while the per feet sanitation of all populous centres should receive the best attention of the medical health officers. TWO IMPOBTANT ASSEMBLIES Two religious gatherings haye as- sembled in Canada within a few days past, which will have an important bearing on the future of our people, if not upon the religious world generally We refer to the late meeting* of the Provincial Synod of the Church of Eng /and in Canada at Montreal, and to the Pan -Presbyterian Council which is still in session at Toronto. Of course those two assemblies wee very differ- ent in their aim --the one being a rep- resentative gathering of Bishops and Clergy, with lay delegates, having leg islative powers to transact business o importance; as couferred by law ;while the other is simply an advisory coun- cil, composed of delegates (lay and elerical). assembled from all parts of Christendom to confer on matters of mutual interest to the various Reform ed eb.urches organized on the basis of Presbyteranism. One principle subject of great interest to Canadian Church- men was the maturing of a scheme for consolidating under one general synod Wile several dioceses and provincial syn cads connected with the English Church throughout the Dominion. Hitherto each synod and diocese presents its own course and transacted its own bus bless independently of the others - though all were affiliated in history, doctrine, and worship with the parent thurch in England. But the present mouvement has for its object an or genie unity of all the Episcopal chur• elacs throughout the Dominion under one general synod, with power to each diocese to arrauge its own local affairs The present scheme, the geueral prin• elpIe of which has beau adopted by all the parties concerned, is to extend to Newfoundland -though that island is not yet within the Dominion; and it has been arranged that the final con ference for PIA g and completing the scheme for consolidation will be. held in Toronto in September 1898 fa respect to the Pan-Prosbyterian council still going on, we may say, that: each an august assembly is not without fleet importance to the various d'enomlnations of Presbyteriau ehrist lays represented therebteancl although they are not met to pass laws, or to ale zange a creed, or even to feel their way to,a, possible organic union of theft different ectlesiastical bodies, yet the coining together of so many emin- ent divines for mutual conference on such matters as education, missiopary effort, temperance, and the social. quest ions of world-wide interest, cannot fail to be produetive of good and May rove a harbinger of that choacu un- ion to'which nearly all caristians chur ehes are earnestly looking., Why could not those -two lea ding denominations - the Church of England in Canada„ whose claim of historic', descent from the apostles, and whose litarg'y has called forth commendations of praise from outside sources; and the several denominations of Presbyterianism, Who ice firm adherence to the , doctrines of grace and whose testimony for Sab lath obserynnee are so well known- ithy could not the leading sphits in both theee two bulwa,rits a Protestaat ism see their way to uniting their mor al farces, and thus economiking men and moans, so as to present a more united front to the aggressions of modern Rationalism and to the more successful reaching of heathens would be stieh an organic; unity, and would do more to convinee the world of the truth of religion than all the apolegies ever published in defence of the path of Christendom., COLONIAL RE0.11-ROOTTY. Although Canadians have very good reason to be satistied with the change which has taken plitee,in English pub - he sentiment with regard. Co the im- portanee of the colonies and the nec- essity of cultivating closer trade relat- ions with them, it must be admitted that the prospects of an early establish ment of a system of preferencies in our commercial intercourse with the motht er country are not you brilliant. The opponents of such a. policy can pain with muck effect to the recent change of government in the United Kingdom to the adverse vote in the Chamber of Commerce Congress, and indeed to the disinclination on the pees CA. even a Conservative goverment to listen to the representations of the United Em- pire Trade League. While we cannot deny that recent occurrences are, on the whole, less fayorable than. we could desire, we see no reason for re- laxing our efforts, but every induce. client to redouble them, and to remem- ber aud take advantage of a hint drop ped by members of the late govern ment, which if carefully considered and acted on may prove to. be a fort une legacy to this Dominion. When in 1646, the English Parliament abol- ished differential duties and destroyed the last vestiges of the Colonial system it, at the same time, authorised Canada to remodel its customs duties. Simi- larly, in the present case, the English Government has declined Commercial Union with its Colonies, but has also pointed out that these colonies,can com bine among* themselyes and make whatever inter•colonial fiscal arrange ments they think fit. The power to regulate her own tariff ha e been one of the priecipal causes of Canada's pro- gress during the last twenty years,and if We ere only wise enough, the right' of Making preferential trade arrange- ments with other British possessions ay be so used as to bring in the fut- ure a large amount of material benefit, not only in Canada but to the whole outer Empire. When we look at the efforts which the United States are making to extend. their trade with tropical countries, and the success which has attended these in securing preferential admission to the markets of Cuba, Brazil and other states, we may well ask why cannot Canada do likewise? Why should she hesitate to offer better terms in her markets for similar favors in countries with which she has already a close political con- nection. Around About Us. THE REPORTER'S REVENGE, -0013 - stable Thomas Grundy, who assaulted Fox, one of the witnesses in the Camer on vs. Maclean. libel case, was arraien- ed Friday morning before Mayor gut - ler on a charge of aggravated assault. He offered to plead guilty to common assault. The information was amend- ed accordingly, and the mayor, after reading him a severe lecture, fined him $5 and costs or thirty deers' im prisonment in the county jail. The report of the Flax Supply Asso- ciation for the improvement of the cul tura of flax in Ireland shows that in the years 1890 1 the resulte were as follows: Acreage in 1890, 96,896; ae- reage in 1891, 74,672; decrease, 22,224, or 22.98 per cent. The record for the last 10 years shows a declining scale for the last five, and ths year now un- der review is the smallest in the 10, and 27.85 per cent. under the average. The yield per acre in 1890 was the largest for 27 vears; and, as every- thing in connection with flac culture is traditionally fickle, a change in the last year did not come as a surprise, but a drep of 19.61 per cent. was a heavy one. The success met with by the sharp- ers who succeeded in passing hundreds of dollars of worthless Prince Edward Island and U. S.

K Gore was arrested at Goderich on Monday last, charged with perjury. Gcre is the man who furn- ished certain statements attacking the reputation of M. C. Cameron, ex M. P., which led to the libel suit against the Goderich Star, in which a verdict was obtained by Mr. Cameron laSt week. When it was beginning to get hot for Gore some time ago he left suddenly for Detroit, and remained there till re-, cently, when he returned. During the trial of the libel suit he kept under cover, as a warrant had been issued for his arrest. But this Morning he made his ;appearance on the . street, thinking the trouble had blown.
