THE AMERICANS GET TkIE
BETTER OF US.
Some monad ago the American
Government pioposed to the Gana,
distil Government that if the export
duty on loge were removed the Am-
erican Government would reduce the
iluport duty on lumber $1 a thou
sand. Luniberwrn who uuly con-
sidered their own iutere$t began
clamoring for the acceptance of this
oiler, and the result was the Douiin•
ion Government removed the duty
on loge and the Americans reduced
the lumber duty $1 a thousand.
The lulubermeu, who had for long
complained of the Aulericau duty
tee oppressive to their (rade, thought
they Haw in this their Halvation,
that in a few Mouths the atocke
they had un hand would be trans,
ferred to the United States marks.
Not only (lid they hope to profit to
the extent of the reduction in the
duty, but they insisted upon the
railwaja git nig reduced freight
charges, so that they bad a reduction
of arena $2.25 in the thousand.
But the advantage they looked for
did not come. The Americans have
- bad the benefit of free export of
logs for some months, but there has
been no appreciable increase in the
export of lumber. In fact, the
market has been so Hat that only a
small quantity has been sold, and
the lumbermen are as bad off as
ever. This may he regarded as a
sample of what would occur in other
braecbes of trade were the people
to rely upon the promises of the
unrestricted traders and accept their
views. The profitable market in
the States would be found to have
no existence, and the Americans
would have the advantage of having
-this country opened to them. w ith
the export duty off logs they -can
carry away the tin,ber and mann
facture it into lumber at their own
trills ; and not only are they doing
this, hut they are stripping the laud
of wood for (taper leakiest and other
purposes them ttlauufacture into
lumber. The plmeries of the south
aro able to supply the demand for
lumber in t he States, and why
should they trouble themselves about
Canadian lumber when that is the
case1 The Canadian leiherinen
have been badly bitten in this case
of reciprocity, and they should ask
that the duty on Togs be reimposed.
TjtA ITALIAN G4'VE1 NMENP
WANTS UTTQL1 SAX TO
RTL.
Washington, March .31.R...•Earou
Fava, the Italian Min.ieter, Mia
•afternoon presented to the Depart-
ment of State his recall by the
•Italian Government, and asked for
hie passports, giving as the reason :
"The King of Italy is dissatisfied
with the progress of adjusttnent be-
tween the Iwo cuuntries in re-
gard to the New Orleans massa-
cre." •
To say that Aoki circles were
surprised is to put it mildly. They
were thunderstruck. It had been
generally supposed the Italian
Government would at least await
the action of the New Orleans Grand
Jury, which is charged with an iu-
vestigation of the bloody episode at
the jail. It appears however, that
the iuformation• received from its
representatives must have led that
Goverutuent to the conclusion that
the Grand Jury investigatiou would
fail to result in the punishment or
even indictment of any person con-
nected with the killing of the
Italiaus. Governor Nicholls' letter
in reply to Secretary Elaine was
also, it is thought, tegalded as
evasive of the real point at issue.
Reparation .or an alleged wrong
and the Guvernor's assurances that
further bloodshed would not follow,
unaccompanied by auy excuse for
the failure of the state or Municipal
authorities to take precautions to
prevent the killing, was, it is said.
regarded by the Italian Government
with extreme dissatisfaction. It
looks as though the Italiau Govern-
ment does nut understand the re-
lations of the National aud. State
Governments, and it appears to
Italy that the United States Goveru-
nlent had exhausted its resources.

---Great amusement was created
the other day by an incident in a
certain church at AZurden, Kau. A
young lady, evidently a etranger,
while seated in one of the pews,
accidentally let her 'handkerchief
fall on the floor. In makiug a
desperate effort to regain possession
of it by repeatedly stooping down
on oue side, ehe attracted the notice
of a gentleman in the pew bohiud.
The gentleman seemed to have gut
the impression that she was seriot's-
ly ill and about to faint. With
the best of motives, therefore, )►e
stood up and took her gently under
the anus, raising her up—very much
to her surprise. As she tied to
release herself auother gentleman
alougside came to the rescue, and be-
fore the lady knew what was the neat
ter they were moving her out into
the passage. Naturally she was too
much astonished to find words for
protest, and they had ulauaged to
half carry, half lead, iter some
distance, when she directed an
appealieg look to another gentle-
mau in the pew es if askir'g him to
help her. He, too, promptly rose
from his, seat., and rendered assis-
tance by helping to lilt up the lady
and carry her gently to the outside.
\'Then explanations calve to 1io
given, the feelings of the trio only
heimagined.
A demand for passports is an ex-
treme measure. It is taken when
war feeling runs high, and the
Minister's person is in danger at
the hands of the popnlaco. [t is
also in a degree suggestive of
menace. A recall under the circum-
stances of this case is a serious teat -
ter. There could be n0 attempt to
disguise that fact, but it does not
signify that mutual explanation
and diplomacy cannot restore the old
status. The Marquis Imperiali is
in charge.

WOMEN AS PREACHERS
T. W Ag{;inson, in Harper's Bazar.
I can remember well that it seem-
ed, even after women had conquered
their place in medicine, that the
twin professions of law and divin-
itywould atilt remain closed to them.
Yet the preacher's desk had been
occasionally occupied by them from
the foundation of the colonies.
Anne Hutchison almost revolution-
ized the New England churches;
Mary Fisher and Anne Austin
taught publicly the doctrines .of
Friends, 13abara Heck was ' called
"the real founder of American
Methodism," as an English sect had
been largely established by Susanna
Wesley and the Countess of Hunt-
ingdon.
Canada on Nov. 1,1889 ; on July 1,
1890, the number had increased to
7,913. Assuming the population at
5,000,000, the number of post -odic•
es would be equal to one for every
631 persons whilst in the United
States, taking the population at 64,-
000,000, the number of post -offices
(62,501) only affords one office for
every 1,036 persons ; 1,303 miles of
mail route have been added during
the year, and the total annual tra-
vel is now 26,498,497 miles, being
an addition to that of last year of
741,719 miles. It isestimated 3,-
280,000 registered letters passed

614.83, an increase of $239,392.03.
The expenditure for the year
amounted to $3,010,695 59. The
(difference between revenue and ex-
penditure for the year ending 30th
June, 1890, was $617,080.96. The
difference for the year 1889, was
$761,817.82. The money order
offices in operation on the 30th June
1890, numbered 1,027, an increase
of 34 during the year. The total
number of orders issued in Canada
was 258,270 for $2.638,427, and
Payable in Canada 105,530 for $1,-
851.058. Thirty-oue new savings
bank offices were established during
the year, slaking 494 Rs the total

June. The number of deposits was
154,678, andthe amount $6,599,

ican of her sex. There seem as yet
to be no trustworthy statistics as to
the whole number of •wbtilen minis

the names of 35, the Congregational
Year Book 5, and the 1Jnitarian

had 16 women as pupils. TheDici•

Protestant Methodists have also or-
dained women on a small scale, and
the institution of deaconesses is be-
ing revived among the larger de-

clerical functions of a woman may

EDITORIAL NOTES.
It is quite evident that theGrits do
not object to high duties as they
voted for commerical union at the
recent election with the imposition
of the American 60 per cent duty in-
stead of the present Canadian duty of
.27 per cent. And those aro the
men that guyed some Conservatives
into supporting their falsely alleged
policy of free trade.
The Dakotas have sometimes boon
irreverently rail 1 •`,1 • 1 's country”
by enthusiastic Americans and their
Canadian allies and booinster's. Re-
cent accounts show that however
much their sixty per cent tariff wall
and diesughty, deadly climate may
have impoverished the settlers so
that they could not get away from
it, yet the people nave at last be-
come desperate from a practical
knowledge that it is not man's coun•
try, and they are trying •to get out.
A recent despatch says :—

to leave town in two hours or they
