It had been suggested that the minims embrace reports epee the uational debts of the world, data never before included in the work. Senator Stewart approved the plan, and was constrained to admit that while it widened the sphere of 111e supervisor's duties it should net neglect a commensurate increase of tie irrewitril. What is more impressed upon the debt of a nation—its debt of stitte and the obligations of its citizens- than its ewe rency ? Certainly nabbing. And when a few bluely tenants of the Senate seats heard this wise utterance, they knew that Seuator Stewart had made way for Ox Thursday of last week Messrs. Ray and Plewes, reoresenting the Dominion Millers' Association, were given a bear- ing before tbe Privy Connell at Ottawa with reference to the existing injustice done to the millers by the whose and dour duties. Mr. Bay (Listowel) is President and Mr. Plewes (Brantford) is Secretary of the association, which could scarcely hove sent a more efficient depu. tatioo for the purpose. Air. Plewes first addressed the Ministers, ureing the neceeeity, in the interests of the milling industry of Ontario. for a change in the duty on flour by making the duty $1 a barrel instead of 50 cents, as at present. He claimed that the Canadian farmer does not receive protection bv the present duty on wheat of le emits a bushel, while flour remained at 60 cents a barrel. Rec. koning that •ig busbels of wheat are re. quireci to make a bar el of flour, in order thee the two might at least bo equal the duty on a barrel of flour should be 72 cents. It was obvious, he contended, that no miller would import wheat while the flour could be brought in cheaper, and he urged that unless relief was afforded, the milling industry of Ontario would be utterly destroyed. Mr. Hay also mode strew; speeth in support of their conten. tions. Sir Jahn thanked the delegation for the important information they had given and said that their representations would receive the beat consideration of the Government. Teens is no doubt the extradition treaty between Canada and the States needs to be extended so as to cover the many refugees who find a quiet resting place in one country from their pecula. lions in the other. Under the proposed new agreement there will be no discrine ination between the forger and the thief they will have the same juatiae meted oat to them, and not before there was plenty of reason for the change. Ac- cording to a dispatch from New York, the grand total of money embezzled from corporations, private firms and the United • States Government during the year 1889 was $8,562,768. Tbe annual appropria- tion for the United States Navy Depart. went is lean than double the amount 'stolen, wbile it would meet the expenses of the War Department for three months. The amount would be sufficient to meet the allowance to Queen Victoria and the English royal family and the royal pensions for two years. Ib is greeter than the total minuet public revenue of the Kingdom of Servia or the principal- ities or di:milieu. It is also greater than the total annual revenue of the Republic of Guatemala, the united republics of Honduras, Costa Rica and San Salvador or Columbia and Ecuador combined. The amount is also greater than the cost of governing either each important colonies ae Tunis or Algeria by France. Summing up the embezzlements by menthe, we learn that it is in the spring when the dishonest servant finds it most congenial to get out with his employer's funds, as 46,888,815 of the money is shown to have been stolon in April, and over $1,181,487 of the romainded in March, The Canadian embezzlements are not nearly tio largo, in proportion to population, but they are fee greater than would have to bo ?worded 11 11 were as easy to get 0 Canadian embezzler re- turned from Buffalo or Chicago at it is to Bend thieves from ono portion of Can- ada to another.

A. gentleman who is a we perronal Need of Samnel .1. Randal , and who visits him frtemently, says the Penitsyl, vauia statesman Item s as thoreughly poeted on the proceedings in and out of Cougress as any man in the (Kinney. His bed chamber presents about the same appearance as the room of an ex. change editor on one of the Metropolitan daily papers. He takes all the leading papers that reach the Capital os the day of publication and is not Rattail .d until be has gone through the whole batch. In addition to this he has the Congressional Record gent to him each day, and through this follows all the proceedings in the house and Senate. Those who are admitted to hie room are surprised at his ability to discuss the measures pending in Congress, and no accurately ststo the standing of each one of them on the House or Senate calen- dar. Mr. Randall's physicians advised against thie, but he has been in harness too long to shut himself off from the world, and be le of the opinion that his plan of keeping abreast of the times has doue more than anything else to better hie condition. Numerous requests have been received by Superinteudeut Porter of the census for a special investigation to be made of the exact condition, financial and social, of the eoloree race in tlaiS cenntry. The sem us act of March 1, 1$80, pro. vides for the first time for a subdivision of the colored population int. enegrees, mulattees, quadroons, and certoroons." Provision for asoermining this informa- tion wi I be made in the population scedule. In calling the attention of Sec- reteri Noble to this matter Mr. Porter states that at his request special agents made inquiry as to the cost of such a special investigation and found that col. lecting this information on a special schedule and compiling it would require an additional appropriation of $450,000. In addition to the increased cost the superinteudent expresses the fear that a special enumeration on a separate ache. dule in the bands of the census enumerae for would endanger and possibly delay the completion of the field work beyond the limit of one month prescribed by the law. "Did you ever see anything finer then these paved streets 2" "Never," said the man from Montana, following with his eyes the splendid sweep of avenue point. ed out by his Washington boat "The National capital" continued the Wash. ington man "has the most magnificently paved streets—" "And the moat infern. al sidewalks in creation," bawled the Montana sight -seer, who having been di- verted by the beautiful street pavement, had forgotten the gopher holes, buffalo wallows, and other inequalities and man. traps of the crumbling brick sidewalks of the National capital. Representative Henderson, of Iowa, describes "a row" to be "when one side of the House is trying to do the best they can and the other side is trying to make a little political capital." If the defini- tion be correct Congress is always in a row. And it is mostly. INFLVENCE OF FOREST ON LORI. CIULTURE. To the Editor of Tan Pon. BM—Perhaps your readers will allow me to address *barn a few words on this subject : "The evidences," says a cele- brated writer, "are abundant" that a suer oessful agriculture depends 00 10 judicious distribution of feted& Dr. Oswald, in the Popular Science Monthly, points to the aridity of the soil all over Spain, Portugal, Southern Italy, Greece, Tor - key, Aida, Minor and Western Africa, from Morcnice to the Nile, and Deserts of our country that the States of Ohio and Indiana and the southern portion of Ken. tuoky and Michigan, so recently a part of the great east Atnerioan forest, have even now a greater percentage of treeless area than Austria and the North Ger. man Empire, that hey° been settled and cultivated for more than a thoosand years. He believes the central position of them districts aro unproductive from lack of moisture that was once supplied by the forests. A deep rich soil is one of the first oesentials to successfel agricul- ture. But there are other conditions quite as important, 5, auflloient and time- ly raintail, general distribution and re- tention of moisture in the soil, and better protection from devastating winds and from Wary by early and late frosts. These conditions cannot be well and thoroughly etenred without a oonsi ierr able proportion of forest growth fhatrib. uted throughout cultivated distriets.
