Canadian journals it will be found that the
contrary is the case. First, with regard
ta postulation. It is notorious our cities,
toWns and villages hane never been so fully
occupied as they are now. The official
census ehows that between 1850 and 1860
the papulation ot Upper Cenada increased
at a rstio of fully one half more than that
of the United States._ The odcial census
of the V. States confirms the statement.
If we turn to the Agricultural progress,the
balance will be found in favor of Canada.
In 1852 there were in U. Canada 9,826,417
acres occupied as farmseaf Which 3,695,-
763 were under cultivation and 6,130,684
were wood and wild lands, 9 years
after, in 1861, the land oceupied bad risen
to 10,354,907 acres, of which 6,057,619
were cultivated, that is, the cultivated
land had increased during these 9 pears,
65.75 per cent, or 17.10 percent more than
the population. In Lower Canada, in
1852 the occupied farms embraced an atea
of 7,042,609 acres,'of winch 3,129,361 were
cultivated -while in 1861 the whole land
occupied as farms had risen to 9,006,082
acres, of ahich 4,170,177 were under cul-
tivation, giving an increase of acreage un-
der the plough of 33,26 p.er cent or 8.50
per cent greater than the increase of popu-
lation during the same period. In 1860
according to the census Returns of the U.
States 295,560,714 acres were occupied as
farms In the different States and Territo-
ries of which 113,032,614 -were under cul-
tivation in 1860, the occupied acreage had
risen to 407,212,538, of Which 163,110,720

of 44.30 per cent, on the cultivated por-

THF SOIL AROUND THH SAULT
ln consequence of the Military guthorities
having determined to discharge the pro-
peller Arctic at Fort William, your cor.
respondent was uneble to proceed thither
last week. He however- was enabled to
visit the farms and farming lands in the
country back from the Sault river on the
Canadian side. The land in the immediate
vicinity of the tillage of Sault Ste Marire
is not 'good being filled with stones, the
stratum of surface soil being thin and sandy
and not calculated for the growth of any of
the cereals to advantage; in fact very little
of the contiguous land is under crops of
any kind, when it is cultivated the work is
done in a. careless and slovenly manner
laziness being the order of the day among
the half breeds and Indians in this lo-
cality. On the road direcely back from the
Hudson Bay fort, I was informed that I
would find some good farms with partial
clearance, the first clearance about two
miles back dn the road was occupied by a
famile from Barrie,theMissus of the house
informing me that elle was the daughter of
a soldier in the *Wish army and was
born at Bhurampol in India and with her
father and mothe had come to Canada

mother country. ot married in Barrie
and came here wit her husband to work

four children all b ys looked healthy in
the extreme and, showed no spirit of des-
pondency by hor 'language and demeanor;
everything look brlit before them, she
was looking to the time when her boys
would be grown up a id driving the plough
through the land with a span of horses and
when the whole of t e forty acres would
be in a state of cu tivation. She stated
that she helped her usband to do all the
work on the land and that he was then at

to some ef the pool effeminate creatures
without hope, inclus tre or animation that b :-
come a poor man's lot in most of oar
towns andcities. I left the premises of the
humble landocrat Deed , came to another
clearing abeut ?tie balf of a mile from
their own bnt 4n the opposite side of the
road. A number of cows and one horse
and foal ;were basking in the sun round
the house as were also some swine; con-
siderably more land was cleared on this
holding than on the former one the house
and barn being also of a substantial des-
cription an old lady was milking one of the
cows. The heat of the day having made
me thirsty I asked her for a drink when
without hesitation she offered me a pitcher
of new milk but I preferred water which
she breught me from aarippling brook
close by as cold as ice and to me under the
circumstances a decided luxury. I soon
discovered that the old lady was the
mother of the wife in the afore mentioned
holding and soon begun to relate her ex-
perience against the sepoy rebels in -India
instead of what I was ifftent on, the condi-
tion of the farmingaciminunity above the

fonder of whiskey than Work. However
through her hand work they had managed
to get five cows three pigs one horse and
foal and twelve acres of the land cleared
on which they grew potatoes, turnips, hay
and barley or oats but no wheat. They
had some money in the Post Office saving

out going to the Sault and then are carri-
ed on without a licence and would not
trust a stranger. However much to her
disgust I preferred the milk as she expect-
ed having espied her husband coming a -
tong the road that he would have unlock-
ed the whiskey cupboard to drink the
stranger's health however this spoiled all
her plane. On speaking about the land
the man declared that the land Piss as goad
as any in Canada that anything could be
growa on it, that he would not sell it for

between the pension and the farm and that

The delegates from British Colembia

are prepared to treat with the 'Governor

points the DoMinion Government has been
unable to givd a definite reply until in-
structious have been received from the
Colonial Office -such for instance as the
maintenance Of a naval establishment at
Esquimault. The only point on which there
has been any doubt is the amount of popu-

*hen to Buy s, Farm.
Very few persons seem to know that the
menthe of June and July are tbe best in
the yeat in which to look for or purchase a
farm. At this season one eau judge wheth-
er the land can or does produce good crops
for if it is rich, the waving grass and grain
will be an ocular demonstration of the
fact ; and if there is, accordine to the
stereotyped assertion, an alteenaance of
choice fruit, it can be seen at this time to
the best advantage. The low lands will
show whether they are really dry enough
for pastures in summer and the np-land
in capacity for withstan'ding drought. If
there be any musquitoes about, they will
generally make their appearance known at
this time, if ever, . and by observing the
children in fhe neighbourhood one can de-
termine whether the locality is healthy or
other w ise.
Summer is also a good titme to view the
never failing spring and the trout pond
near by, and a draught from one and a
lunch from the other are attractions whieh
those who possess them seldom fail to bee
stow upon those who are likely to become
a purchaser. Even the weeds on a farra
will assist a man in determining its value,
for if nothing but stunted rao-weed and
five -finger are to be -seen, then the land
may beset down as poor -indeed • but if
burdock and catnip abound, it' shows
strength for crops of higher order.
The pasture and meadow, orchard and
garden, all show what they are and what
may be expected of them in these months;
but earlier or later the aspect of things may
change, the roads are muddy for ever and
the distance from the farm to the raiLad
station appeare to be much greeter than it
actually is especially to a stranger. In
autumn the leaves are turning yellow, the
grain has been gathered, the fruits are
nearly gone ; still the air is fresh and the
landscape glowing with autumnal tints -
but the valuable products of a farm, which:
are its produets, are mainly out of eight, ,
beim, stored in the barn or in the pro -,1i. •
