From ab"nt Tuesday, the 8rd, to Friday, the 6111, there are reasons to expaat all the changes and phenomena of a very deoided storm period. A marked ohauge to warmer and failing barometer will lead rapidly into cloudiness with general rain and thunder etorme in the South, Raine may ate° be expected in oentral and Northern section, but change to much older will follow the raine, with heavy now equalle,generally along the Northern side of the country. Sharp change to °old will bring up the rear of these etorme, bringing the temperature quite to the frost line far into the South. To Ploxog.-The Stouffvilie Pilot, of Feb. 18, speaks of H. J.

Besides these there is at present, and from indications will be throughout the Summar, a great boom in the building of agorae, &a. Thle oo0utry ie certainly the plain for meoltaaioe and laborere. Tailors make an average wage of 712 to 725 a week ; plumber 35 to 45a an hoar ; oor- penters, after April let, will make 36 to 600 an hour; and painters, masons and other meahanios make similar wages. One great drewbaok to this Province is the Chinese and Jape. I feel safe to say that the people of thie Province would be quite willing to ehip every Ching Po, Lee Hung, Sam Soy end so forth, and every Jap bank to Eastern Canada, pay their fares and all wages tar 5 years, In fact I think they would be quite willing to part with them for 10 yeare, but I am afraid the people of the East would want to oall "quite" at the end of 5 yeare, If the people of Eantern Canada knew bow the Chinese and Jape were reining this aoantry for the white man they would work like Trojone to get rid of every one of them. They can live on about 5o a day and ooneegaentiy can do Work for a great deist lees than the white man, but we ere in hopes that before lang they will be shat off framable ooantty entirely, We are always anxi008 to reaeige THE' Po87 as we get all the news of oar Eastern friende.
