OrAt:TON, Yiui x, Nov. 4TII, 1881. .nn.nne UR%TIcJSllt -.Notwithstanding the good times at present ;existing in Canada, and the• prosperity whichour country enjoys, there are some who still have the audacity. to say that the National .Policy has proved a failure, and that our coon- xy is not prosperous. Ifere is what The Ameri'cati,'a paper published across the lines, thinks about. it. ' a '.The adoption of a protective to by the Dominion of Canada in 18 Las made this a live issue in her par politics ever since, The Liberals, w are in opposition,• made the most reasonable demands in regard to t new policy. They asked to see i mediate resu ts.,from measures who effects must a visible only by slo degrees. . And charged upon t Protectionists the responsibility the bail times which had begun mad their own -Free Trade policy, and h • lasted for years before the new tar camp into effect, This style of arg inept marsh) been very efrecti ,,with ignorant people, but even . th now begins to lose its force.

She sees new manufactures opening.. The demand for labor was never so great, Agents stand at the doors of Catholic churches, offering employment at high wages to every oile theycan, induce to accept emplopment. The prices of merchandise .have not been enhanced by her purpose to .buy of her own producers rather than for- eigners. And, last of all, instead 'of. the usual deficit in the revenues of the. Dominion :Government, there is'a .sur-. plus of over four millions, The Lib- eral papers are having a • much harder time than they had five years ago, in their defence of a Free Trade policy. At that time, every workingman out of employment furnished them with 'a sufficient text; to show -that the Nation- al Policy was a failure, • and that the pledges given to the laboring classes by the Tories in the general electionhad• not been •k.ept.. Now. they have to argue against an :abundance of work auctan overflowing treasury. Some of i,liein undertake toshow that the .surplus 1s a..very bad thing, and even grow' mournful .ovdr that •in the American Treasury. Others argue that Sir Le- onard Tilley. is a bad financier, 'since be did not forsee his .large amount, 'of surplus.. Theythemselves foretold a deficit. Others urge' that•.

Stich is the case in this in- ` stance, since the arrest•of Mr, Parnell' and bus colleagues. The course taken by the agitators, was also too wild and waaideting to last for any length of time. The whole hobby seemed to be " No rent," without regard to what plant; or schemes were offered to settle thadiiiioalty. Asp ooneetluonco, there being no substantial foundation to the or&'anization, the moment the "leaders ceased to work, the same moment, the Land. League began to die a sudden and natural death. The people are be- gining to -see and think for themselves and n2 doubt, will be satisfied for the tiwe 6eing, to accept the Land Laws. and. givethem a fair trial. STsPs are to be taken shortly, to consider an agreement for the cannon-, tlation of the Midland, the Toronto and Nipissing, the Grand Junction and the Toronto and Ottawa Railway.Co}npan-, ies, into one company to be called the Midlands Railway. of Canada. The Railroads . are all in running order, with the, exception of the Toronto and Ottawa which is .only yet . a scheme on paper, but the other roads as they stand can bemade to operate with more sat- isfactory results. Itwill open Up" the Whole territory on the Georgian. Bay, thereby controllin g the largest lumbc r trade in the province. It will largely increase the lumber and timber trade with Termite, and bring into connection with its system the towns of Peter-' boro and Belleville, both ,being large manufacturing centres. The success of the scheme however depends in a great measure on the prompt prosecu- tion. of the worst on -:the Toronto and Ottawa road.
