Stn,—In reading the EXPOSITOR, I was greatly amused at some of the re- marks contained in Mr. Hugh Love's letters, giving his views and experience on the changed condition Of affairs in the old country. Mr. Love's uame having been for many years before the public as an instinctor of his brother farmers in stock and cattle raising and other matters connected with farming, his remarks are always interestingeThe last letters were both interesting, -in- structive and amueing. Many of your readers, not personally acquainted with Hugh Love, Sr., will naturally paint in their minds the aged patriot bowing his grey head with sorrow to the grave, and weeping over the perversity of his adapted and ungrateful country in re- turning only gvil, and that continually,' to the land that gave them birth, and wlio has nourished and suPpotted them ever since. It is certainly's- sad spec- tacle of filial ingratitude, but fortunate- ly the picture is not true. In the first place, Hugh LOVA, Sr., is a sprightly young man, with scarcely a grey hair in his head, and apparently not entitled to have used the "senior" so long. He is, however, an old politician whose bvery word and move is calculated to advance the interests of his "pairty," add to have disastrous effects on his ofpon- ents. I would not have taken so much no- tice of his letters only for the exalted sneer her condescended to bestow oh the N. P. Considering the improved con- dition of the whole country, it ' comes with a bad grace from any intelligent person to sneer at the new policy. I recollect the time—it was during Mc- Kenzie's rule—that a new roof, a lean- to, or a water closet built round a mane, ufactaring establishment was published' all over as being the sign of returning prosperity. Alas, prosperity refused to return until the assumtion of power by the powers that now are, when, as if by magic, sugar refineries that had stood they for years began to work; new and in- creased industries sprang into life, and with, old ones were revived and enlarged. and The blessings of the policy have been stall felt equally by those wh.o favored and Eie„ those who oppposed it. Even John i tha' Watson, of Ayr Agricultural Works, trie that clearest of clear Grits, has i,20 been forced to leave his old premises pro and water power, and put up a building large enough to meet the requirements \ienig of his trade. It must be a sad change Tent to leave the place he has occupied for /Year or two at the furthest. Th the last thirty years, which has always/08,p the duty st inSposed wo been quite large enough and the power once turn the tid of immigration great enough until now, and no doubt the old world and from Caned would have continued so if his own po- 'litical head had been keiit in power, •Wo d even cause a rush fro ,e which would have saved him. the trouble t n ten years En and expense of putting up the buildings a we read of. It is consoling, however, to MWa h think that what is Mr. r. lees is al his country's gain.

But orargument's sake, it did f other pockqts, it would onl in less th get 100,000,000 bushels of th at I raiSed in the world at bou the price they -ar now fore d to the America s. Beidesj this, Mr. Love gives a comparison of prices in 1871 and 1881, showing that during his first visit prices were then nearly double what they are now. This is strange, as prices were then much lower in Canada than they are now. This demonstrates beyond any doubt that cheap freights enhance prices to the producers and reduces them to con. earners. This simple truth Mr. MC - Kenzie, during his term of office, never would learn, but alldwed Canadian railways to carry all sorts of American products into Canadian markets at fully erne -half the rates they would carry our own. Mr. Love also states that old country farmers are terribly down on American produce pouring into the country, which fairly rains them. The outlook for the British farmers is indeed gloomy, but if theycomplain of low prices now, when prices are up to al- most famine mark in America, what will they do when prices fall to starva- tion figures in this country? It is plain they cannot compete, even al- though they had no rent to pay. Mr. Love knows it takes two or three times more money to manure an acre of eel turnips in the old country than they van are worth here when raised, and it is aorn pretty much so in raising any kind of ! how crop. P pe Mr. Love gently hints that there is (31 quite an agitation going on in favor of dv fair trade, but adds, in his eareastic way, that the people of that country 618, will not allow themselves to be fooled lege. like the Canadians with such political ene quackery, and holds up his hands in bee, holy horror at the idea of the poor 6e l man's bread being taxed.
