Some persons said that the Horne Rule bill did not exist. That is uncharitable. I believe two exists, one for the Irish and the other for the English supporters. THE UPPER HOUSE. It is quite true that a reform of the House of Lords is worthy of dis- oussiou, but any echeine modifying the structure of the House of Lords would certainly diminish the power of the Commons. It will not occur yet. Mr. Gladstone's menaces aro unworthy of his great position, be- cause it is contemptible to menace without the power to execute his mouaces. He cannot menace the house of Lords • with- out a revolutiou, and he cannot have his revolution ou limited liability. If ho imagines that the people of this country will allow him to sot up a revolution, to do - liver tho'stroots into the hands of a mob, and to expose to all the hazards of a revolution the vast con mercial and industr•is1 in terests built up in a long period of peace, lie mistakes, as he has often done before, the real fooling of his coun- trymen. THE ORANGE, NOT THE GREEN. Turning to Ireland, Lord Salis- bury said that in that country two great influences were prominent, blackthorns and priests. Nothing in modern history equalled the in- fluence of Archbishop Croke and Archbishop Walah in the recent history of Ireland. PR=PARIID Br `fir. J. 0. Ayer St Co.; Lowell.

Mr. W. A. Clouston, in the Aeiratic Quarterly Review, traces a 1'amilar tale, from the ancient Hin• •,doe collection, "Ocean of the Rivers . ref Narrative," through various ver. isioue, in many centuries and langu- ages. The Hindoo tale is, in brief, as foliates: A rich man ,said to bis treasurer, in the hearing of a musi- cian who had entertained him, 'Give this man two thousand panes." ,The treasurer said, "I will do so," and went out. The minstrel --aeked him for thoae panas, but was srefused, and on appealing to the rich man, he received this reply "What did you give me that I should make a return? You gave a short-lived pleasure to my ears by playing on the lyre, and I gave a mhort•l.ived pleasure to your ears by promising you money." Tn Gladwin's "Persian Moon - Shoe," a poor poet recites verses in praise of a rich man, who promises him a quantity of grain, but later mays to him, "You are a blockhead! You delighted me with words, and pleased you in like manner. Why, Alen, should I give you grain V' Lucian tells of a philosopher who complained' to his pupil because hie Fees were eleven days in arrears, and was thus anawored by the youth's uncle : "Pray let us hear no afore complaints of the injustice you suppose you have had at our frauds, since it simply amounts to this : We have bought words of you, and, till now, have paid you in the same coin." In "Jacks of Dover, his Qneet of 1uquirie for the Poole of all Foolee," English jost•book of the sixteen. century, there is a tale almost precisely like the IIindoo narra- tive.

A WOMAN OF STRATFORD GRIEVES FOR TIM LOSS OF A DAUGHTER AND KILLS HERSELF. The wife of Mr. James Martin, Ontario street, Stratford, cut her throat with a razor about 4 o'clock on the afternoon of Dec. 2, and died from the effecte of the self- iuflicted wound. Some time ago Mrs Martin lost a daughter by death. This unfortunate event uns settled her mind, and, being aware of her state, her family have watch. ed her closely for some months past. In the morning ahe went to see her daughter,. Mrs. John Hillman, who lives near her, and while there,sucs seeded in getiing possession of Mr. Hillman's razor, which she secreted in her clothes and carried about with her all day. At four o'clock in the afternoon she' and her son, James, were taking a cup of tea, when she said iihe was going outside. After she had been gone 10 or 15 minutes, the sou went out to sec if everything was all right. He walk• ed pant the door of the House of convenience two or throe times, and hearing no noise opened the door. A ghastly eight met his gaze. There ley his mother, with a large pool of blood on the floor. IIe lifted her up and found that she had cut her throat with the razor. Dr, J. A. Robertson was called, but when he arrived the woman was dead ; in• deed, she must have been dead when her son found her. The gash in• fleeted by the razor had severed the windpipe, down which the blood flowed, preventing respiration. Mrs, Martin had lived in Stratford about twenty years, having comp to that city from Woodstock, where the family settled after coming from England in 1854, Her husband, one son and two daughters mourn her unfortunate end.

At the session of the county coutt- eil held friday the following a'e- solution was moved by Ex -Warden 11 intemute, seconded by Or. King, reeve of Kingsville: Whereas certain persons of more or less proreinonce within the county have recently ontered into an agitation for annexation t0 the United Staten, we, the members of this council, representing our loyal, free and enlightened constituents, desire to place upon record our fun belief and conviction that no court • try on oerth possesses a better system of government or more ad- mirable iuptitutions than our bo - loved land, and while desiring to live in peace and friendliness with the great country lying to the south of us, we hereby repudiate all desire or intention of becoming identified with it, preferring to remain uuder the glorious flag beneath which our country has become great and progressive, and to retain our exist• ing conditions, which have secured equality and justice to all creeds, nationalities and conditions of men under its influence and operation, loyally to their Queen and country. The only difference between them was that this political horizon ex- tended further than some others. • b'Ir. Wintemute said that the int -- pression had gone abroad that the county of Easel. was in favor of annexation to the Uuited States, For himself he was proud of his couutry, and would sooner change his eoligion than his nationality. While he was a liberal in politica he was not a partizan. He believed that the trade policy of the Conner• vati1e party had driven many poo• ple out of the country, and the Re- form press for political purposes had, he believed, greatly exaggcr• ated the evil offecte. The Warden had identified himself with this an- nexation movement and given it an importance abroad that it was not entitled to. This was n grand coun- try, whore we enjoyed the greatest religious and political freedom. He had the greatest confidence in the future of his country and saw a great future for it if we wore only true to ourselves, Dr. King coincided with what had been said by Mr. Wintemute. This question was above and bo- yond mere political parties. Refor- mers and Conservatives were almost unanimous iu favor of retaining our own nationality, He was very much pleased with the loyal ring of Mr. Wintemute's speech. Mr. Coste said lie was a French- man born, but at the age of 25 years had taken the oath of allegiance to Queen Victoria, and never had the slightest cause to regret it. He had travelled much and in no courts try, not even excepting Great Bri• tain, did people enjoy greater lib' erty.

In Can- ada a government could not exist a day that was not in accord with public opinion. He mentioned many other instances to show how inelastic American institutions were.

Mr. Shaw (Episcopal) of Lucan, were invited to lecture, and ou the even- ing promised arrived ready to open tIte meeting, when they learned that the usual old time "hop" was to fol- low their remarks. The ministers held that such a proceeding was not in keeping with the occasion, and refused to go on without a promiso to the effect that the dance would not be ctrriod out. After a long consultation those high in authority decided that the speeches could be dispensed with more easily than the dance, so tlio ministers departed, leaving bohiud many who would rather have heard the lecture. -Bulletin No. 11 ou crops and live stock in Manitoba during the past season issued by the Manitoba Department of Agriculture and Im- migration isagratifying one,ehowing that in Manitoba the wheat yield is over 23,000,000 bushels. Count- ing in rho territories, the aggregate( will not bo much below 30,000,000 bushels of wheat for tho Canadian Northwest. The estimated yield of wheat for Manitoba is 23,191,599 bush„ against 14,665,769 last year, an estimated average per acre 25.3 bushels, as competed with 21-1 bus- hels last year. The bulletin says the wheat crop has undoubtedly suf fared from frost to a considerable ex- tent, but just how much it isinipos- sible at present to . determine. Some correspondents ostitnato the damage in their localities as low as two per taut,., but in the aggregate thole will be,ae near as can be doter - mined from reports, 40 per cent,. all the way from No. 1 hard to chicken feed. -Daniel Whale, of Mitchell, a former Toronto hotelkeeper, who is now serving a life sentence for kill% ing his wife, has made a confession. Whale's confession in effect is that on November 30, 1890, he had an altercation with his son-in-law Bel- den, and hatter threw him out of the Ro3 al hotel. Some days after, dur- ing the course of a quarrel, Mrs. Whale had twitted him about being thrown out of the hotel. He said he became very angry, and told her that if she ever mentioned the mat- ter to him again he would kill her. On the morning of the terrible trage- dy Mrs. Whale again mentioned the affair to hint in a sneering manner. Being under the influence of liquor he became so enraged that he seized an empty ale bottle and struck her a powerful blow on the head. This was the blow that drpve the skull in and finally produced death. He then threw the bottle behind the wood pile in the yard, wbere it has been found since. -The estimated product of oats in Manitoba is 14,792,606 bushels against 9,513,433 bushels last year, with an average of 48.3 bushels per acre against 41.3 last year. The estimated product of barley is 3,197,875 bushels against 2,069,415 bushels Nat year, with an average of 35.6 bushels per acre over 1890. The estimated product of potatoes is 2,191,982 bushels, slightly under last year's yield. Regarding wheat, the bulletin says there is every reason to believe that, contrary to the usual result, the threehcr's yield will be greatly in excess of the esti- mated yield by crop correspondents. Absence of suitable help has been the bane of the farmer this season, says the bulletin. In almost every township there has been a dearth of farm laborers, and the inconveni- ence end loss arising from this source has been very great. The large number brought into the Pro- vince on farm laborers' excursions seen to have been but a drop in the bucket, and it is safe to assume Nat twice as 'many co 1i TiiiVd found employment for the three months or more from the beginning of harvest.
