By the time they were at Saunders ean- depot the howling began again and Polley said he would haul him up. He thought it was cruelty to the dog and that Mr. Crabb was not drawing it mild.

Thinks the dog was whipped severely but as he spoke feelingly -not tooseverely for theatrocious crime committed. It was the butt of the whip he was thrashing the dog with. Mr. Trueman has the dog's brother and Mr. Crabb suggested that his dog therefore bore Mr Trueman `malice aforethought' as these brethren sometimes fight and Mr T. uses his freely on Mr Cra,bb's pup.

This witness, in answer to Mr Polley could not say if constrains fuit, The dog was produced and did nothing to vindicate himself but sliok into a corner. No medical gentlems,n being present the Mayor declined to make a surgical examin- ation of his physical condition. Ma CEA BB in defence of Mn. CRABB made an eloquent appeal to the Scriptures declared "Train up a child in the way he should go. and when he is old he will pot depart from it." If the law allows a parent to chastise a child (which of coin se Mr Doyle knows nothing about as he is an old bachelor) how much more does it allow a dog to be punished if that dog knows he is guilty. This dog is an intelligent dog and a pup, in fact a "child" among dogs and punish- ing him now would make 'm'him amenable all his life to the law concerning dogs. If this dog had been an old dog he might have shot hitn, but he was a young dog and had made an impression on Mr Crabb'e affectionate bosom and punishing him now would make him a gond dog as long as he lived, and he held that under the statute 'necessary' punishmet was permissible. The effect of the chastisemettt was already apparent as he use,cl to cherish `malice aforethought' to Mr Triteman ; while, since the thrashing he had been in Mr. Trneman's Company without showing any desire to miitilate his nether garments. It was only the other week he had seen Mr Polley's man unmercifully beating a baulky and he might have prosecuted hini bUt for his extreme "ge,ed nature' and this was his reward. B. L.

Dr. -Sterry Hunt, of the Geelogical Sur- vey, has just published an elaborate report on the Gbdericli regime The first part gives a description of the gedlogical for- mation of the region, whioh is interesting to those who are in search of wells and which gives a large amount of information as to the results of boring in different localities. The second part of thhe report igoccupied with details of the processes for making salt., and shows clearly that the manufacturers of Goderich have not yet adopted the best means toy working to advantage the brine which is so abendant in that region. To realize the enormous waste now going on at Goderich, it is only necessary to show the different results ob- tained from the Syracuse brine and from the Goderich brine. The brine from Syra• ousts mark from 590 to 65° of the salometer, while those of Goderich give from 81° to 90° and 95°. A pure brine of 600 contains 15.6 per cent. of salt, and 38.9 gallons of i it are required toyield a bushel ot salt ; while a brine of 900 holds 23.4 per cennand yield a bushel of salt for 24.4 gallons. At Goderich, as has been shown, there are obtained 35 bushels of salt to the cord of wood, while with a much inferior brine Syracuse yields 30 to 38 bushels. At the same ratio of production as that of Syra- cuse -and it must be remembered this ceuld be largely increased-Goderich brine should yield 52 bushels salt to the cord of wood, again of between two and three hundred barrels a day in the busy season. it will be said, no doubt, that the evapora- tory are the sante as those used in Syra- cuse. Even suppose the brine to be the same, tlie Syracuse evaporators are by nn means the most perfect that could be ob tained, and it would seem to be the busi- ness of those who complain of being exposed to unfair competition, as the Goderich men have done, to endeavor to make their salt as cheaply as possible. But 86 far from this being the case, they hate adopted the process which -granting it is found suitable at Syracuse -is not suited to the stronk brines of Goderich. Even this process, according to thtl re- port, has been cOndneted in a slovenly, careless manner. This is nonffritted by the report of Dr Goessman, who, in 1868, recommended that a different method should be pursued, either, evaporation by moderate heti oti the European plan. of large pans, or evaporation 14 solar heat in wooden vats, on the Onondaga plan. - Each of these plathS, he believed, would produce, with less trouble, not only a good marketable article, but i'3otild make ahdiffetence of fifty per cent on the re- turns. Since then the pan system hag been tried in Clinton the reduat being the producticnof fifte bnshels to the cord, the maximum strength of the brine, being stated to be 85° althrottgh the specimen analysed by Pr. Hunt shoed only 80. That the Go derich brines old be worked nitre cheaply than . any other, seems to admit ef no doubt. The analysis and the deductions from them made by eUr Fl ant and Mr. Goessman shovis that salt from the Goderich brine not only compares most favorably with the best forergn salt, but that Chat from Saginaw brines is made at much greater eXpense; the brines being much inferior. What is required, therefore, to enable the God- ericu salt well proprietors to enter on ad vantageiks terms into competition WW2 American produces is proper tininess management. -Montreal Bead.
