The following despatch appeared in the Chicago Tribune on Thursday, under the heading "Farmers Emigrate from Kansas—Disgusted with Populist Rule, they leave for British Col- umbia." . Atchison, Kas., March 28.—A special train of eighteen cars, containing 168 persons, passed through this city this afternoon en route for British Corunlbia, where the colony goes- to settle. The party is comprised of farmers from the valley in the vicinity of Clyde and Con- cordia, Kas., who have become disgost- ed with the Populist rule in county and State affairs • and have .decided on a change. The above is not correct in one par- ticular. These emigrants, as we learn from the officials of the C. P. R. office in this city tyre bound for the famous Edmonton district, north of Calgary, which at.present seems to be the Mecca of the home -seeker. They were taken on • Friday from Omaha to St. Paul by the Chicago, Milwaukee & St Paul Ry. At the Minnesota capital a transfer will he made to the "Soo" and the trip made to the promised land without change of cars. The party consists mostly of ex -Canadians, English and French, who are in comfortable circum- stances; some being quite well-to-do. All are experienced farmers and must prove a great acquisition to the Cana- dian Northwest. We understand the Canadian Pacific will in tt week or two handle a large party of Nebraskans, who 1vill also be taken to Edmonton. The fever among Westerners is fairly on, and the very satisfactory reports that have reached this country with reference to the agricultural resources of that part of the Dominion being such as to create great interest among home -seekers, which, of course, the railways will cio all within their power legitimately to increase. — Chicago Canadian American. THE TARIFF REVISION. It was not expected that the recision of the tariff, carefully and considerate- ly accomplished by the Government, would command the approval of the Opposition. Of lite years the most prdminent quality developed in the Liberal party is that !possessed by the candidate for eldership in the Kirk, who, when reminded of his lack of ex- perience and knowledge, stbicaily re- marked "Weer, loon, 1 could object." Laurier and his followers can object with a regularity and persistency worthy of a better cause. .They ob. jected a few weeks ago because the Government would not bring down the proposed tariff changes at once. Then when the Finance Minister ask- ed for a day last week in which to Make his statement to the House, the Opposition felt called upon to object on thegrounds that there was no necessity for such haste. No matter what kind of proposals Mr. Foster might make it is as certain as any- ` thing can be in this world that the other side of the House would express its dissent. The whole record of the party on the tori guaetion c�$t jpc(n.• sietenezetl i oontlraciiGt t)ns. levee nr4 alvwye the pelrey of thOr Liberals, baa hewn** or Qpportup1bp r to trim the: trade .sail t(> oatclt the plowing, breeAU without re ark, •tel tiie course their IN was tw in , l'roznt 187& to the time !Slake mace his celehiated Malvern Special their pro rens was toe wards pzotent1oz)• and: " they almost boasted that they were as einem, in their sul)port of .tho N, P. as were the men who emit:01ved and Successfully carried that policy into eilfect. Their came the retrograde rn.ovement, with its successive trials of Cpmmercial Union, Unrestricted Recipe onity, n- nexation and other fads. W'l?ere t ey tyro sna w it to hard to ss.y.. All we know ' e they still object. The speech of the Faience Minister on Tuesday was one of his ablest, as certainly it was his most important effort. Mr. Foster thoroughly under- stands the vexed tariff and trade problem. hie is no fireside philosopher intoxicated with the beauties of theories which are totally inapplicable. He is business -like and practical in everything he says or does and wastes no words or time in idle sentiment or impractical experiments. Mr. Fos- ter was at his best on Tuesday. His lucid comments on the different principles. of tariff legislation were opportune and valuable. He classified them as follows: 1. Simple free trade, revenue being raised by direct taxation. 2. Revenue tariff, protection being incidental and not designed. 3. Protective tariff, protection being both incidental and designed. Mr. Foster pointed out that free trade Chad not been adopted by any country In the world and that Eng- land was the only great nation ad- hering strictly to a revenue tariff.. His remarks on the advantages which years ago protection had afforded England, and the baneful competi- tion which her present system exposed her industries to, preceded a clear but forceful review of the happy results that had flown from the adoption of the National Policy in this country. After that Mr. Foster had Little difficulty in making a strong defence of the Governments action in retain- ing as far as possible the protective features of the old tariff. The changes —the most important of which were outlined on Wednesday— are directed largely to a reduction in the duties on the necessaries of life. Great reduc- tions, for instance, have been made on woollens, worsteds, cottons, soap and biscuits. Corn, hay, rye, flour, beans and peas will he made free, providing the Americans will do the same. Reductions have been made in the iron duties sufficient to satisfy the reasonable demands of the consumers and at the same time allow of the pro- fitable development of this very im- portant industry. In fact, all through the revision the Government kept clearly in view the desirability of re- taining, where essential to the progress of the industries of the country, the protective features of the tariff. Can- ada is' wedded to protection. She cannot, unless she is prepared to re- lapse into a purely agricultural nation, sweep entirely away the. duties under which her industries have so far gratifyingly prospered. The necessity of lopping off some of the branches of our fiscal tree the Government realized and that they have courageously and patriotically accomplished the task set before them, all right-thinking Canadians with admit. IT PAYS TO BE CANADIAN. The following able editorial from the Montreal Star is presented as well wot'thy of perusal. The sentiments are good:— "Every utterance that comes from the Canadian financial world these days has in it the note of gratu- lation. While undoubtedly there has been more or less hard pulling along the road of life in different parts of the Dominion, we have escaped as a people that utter collapse of financial faith, with all its attending evils, which has afflicted our cousins in Australia and our neighbors across the line. It is a curious thing that the most conspicu- ous instances of commercial panic that have occurred doling • the present world-wide stress, have been seen in Australia and the United States—two communities which have more in com- mon with Canada than any other two on earth. The United States is nearest to us geographically, and very near ethnologically and in natural ressource. While Australia has a political position almost identical with ours a is the one among all the colonies of Britain fittest to pair with us ; and resembles us to a considerable degree in population and agricultural ability. Yet though these two communities suffered signally from the financial storm, losing many a bank in the gale, Canada has ridden throoi h the foul weather with coin- parattvely little uneasiness. It would not have been possible for a more crushing proof of the wisdom of a policy of commercial independence for Canada, to have evolved itself from any other conditions. The full value of this evidence is, no doubt, felt by the whole country ; and nothing can induce our people to abandon the pol- icy, thus so strongly commended, except a conviction that the present empodirnent of that policy—the old tariff—is fuller: of faults than virtues. This danger, the Government can avert. The lesson, however, that the inhabitants of the Dominion should not fail to learn from it all is that Canada is tt separate national entity with an individual life worth fighting for and a future to call forth our firmest faith. The boundary that cuts this country off from the United States is a reality, with substance enough at least to drive back financial panic. The Canadian people have "11 local habitation and a name," and there is more binding force in the word "Canadian" than there is separative influence in differing races or religions. Any man who proposes for any reason to break the force of the Canadian natne as a real bond of last- ifig unity, should be silenced as an enemy to the business prosperity of every dweller in the country. It pays to be Canadian. This is the truth we have learned ; and it is a truth we should never forget. When politicians propose commercial surrender, they should be reminded that it pays to be Canadian. When racial fanatics or religious bigots talk of breaking up Confedera- tion, they should be met with the determined rejoinder—it pays to be Canadian. When discontented office -hunters talk of cutting loose from the British Ernt5ire, it is a sufficient reply to point out that British connection is the sole adequate guarantee of Canadian ex- istence, and then to add that it pays to be Canadian.",,,,, rriur0n 0, RAl'lD.

Deep in a Cytbera cave, e Pealing a thunderous paean; Roars. as the ehiverigg wave Whitens the purple Aegean; Where to ltstoniah the globe, Terrible, beautiful, mighty. Clad with desire as a robe, Rose Aphrodite. Never again upon earth Like her arose any other; Got without labor or birth, Sprung without father or mother. Zeus, from his eery hone, Seeing the roseate water Lift her aloft on its foam, Hailed her his daughter. Sweet was her shape ; and is now; Sweeter the breath of her kissea; Delicate ivory brow ; Wealth of ambrosial tresees; Mouth that no favor denies; Cheek that no ardor abashes; Languishing eyelid, and eyes, Languishing lashes. Seeing her luminous face Shine as the ocean that bore her, Every nation and race Worshipped her, falling before her; Chaplets they culled for her fano, Fairer than any can Dull us Greece gave ber Sappho's refrain, Rome her Oetullus. Soft was the sound of their lyre, Luscious their lay without cloying Till, as a billow of fire, Crushing, consuming, destroying, Wasting her wines in their spleen Spilling her costly cosmetics, Swept the implacable, lean Horde of ascetics. Darkness they spread over earth, Sorrow and fasting of faces; Mute was the music; of mirth Hushed was the chorus of Graces; Back to the womb of the wave, Terrible, beautiful, mighty, Back with the boons that she gave, Sank Aphrodite. Down the abysses of time Rolled the unchangeable ages, Reit of the glory of rhyme Graven in passionate pages; Sad was the measure, and cold, Dead to the language of kissea; Sadly the centuries rolled Down the abysses. Now in the ends of the earth Tenderer singers and sweeter, Bait with a ravening dearth, Cry on the goddess and greet her i Cry with their rapturous eyes Flashing the fire 6r emotion; Call her again to arise Fresh from the ocean. Hot as of old are their songs, Breathing of odorous tresses, Murmur of amorous tongues, Ardour of fervid caresses; Trilled with a tremulous mouth Into the ear of the comer, Warm as the breath of the South, Soft as the Summer. Under the depth of the wave, Hearing their paseionate numbers, Piercing her innermost cave, Waken her out of her elumbere, Soothed with the sound of their strain, Beautiful, merciful, mighty, Bank to the nations again Comes Aphrodite. . —Grant Allen, in Temple Bar. Royalty and Marriage. Kingdoms and 'principalities run cer- tain risks in the marriage of their rulers that students in biology could tell them were dangerous. For instance, Queen Victoria's granddaughter, Victoria Meli- ta of Edinburgh and Snxe•Coboutg, is to marry the Queen's grandson, Duke Ernest Louie of Hesse-Dltrnhstadt—first cousins. But they are also second cou- sins on the Darmstadt side of the house as well as on the English royal side. The grandmother of the Princess Victoria was sister' of the Grand Duke of Hesse, from whoni Duke Ernest is descend- ed ; the Empress of Russia, wife of Alexander the IL, having as they say in Russia, brought consumption into the Ruinanoff family, witnessed not only her own but her eldest sun's death by it at Nice and the delicate health of the two sons of the present czar. The be- trothed are not only first cousins, but second cousins beside on the Russian and Darmstadt side, and so the compli- cations that too closely -connected mar- riages sometimes develop are already shadowing the match. When the family stock on both sides ie healthy, however, the marrying in and in does no harm, it is at$rnied by French statisticians. The good qualities are doubled up and ac- cented as the preponderating defective ones occasionally are in these marriages of near relatives.—New York World. 1ultivatrna Bacilli for Dye Factories. A clever engineer has lai ely discovered that' the best way to prevent a steam engine from being shaken to pieces by vibrations is to make these vibrations do usefnl work on the business in hand. But the neatest idea for rounding on the ills that flesh is heir to is a scheme just published by M. Gaston Seemlier, a foreign chemist, for extracting the color- ing matter from microbes. 'To accom- plish this it is necessary to cultivate the microbe on a quite commercial scale. Microbe farms will become the indis- pensable adjunct of every self-respeot- ing dye factory. The nutritive broths and cultures, which at present are pre- pared in stealth and private laboratories will be dealt with in song kitchens and sterilized in bulk. The bacillus will no longer drag out a precarious existence in the face of persecution, but will be fattened up under conditions which best " suit him. When he has laid on pigment in sufficient large quantities the liquid he infests will be strained off. ' He him- self will be pressed and dried, and finally treated with chemical agents capable of removing the coloring matter which constitutes the secrets of his strength and of his power to do harm.

CHOCOLATE CUSTARD PIE.—Quarter of a cake of Baker's chocolate, grated; one pint boiling water; six eggs; one quart milk ; one-half cup of white sugar; two teaspoonfuls vanilla. Dis- solve the chocolate in a very little cold milk, stir into the boiling water, and boil three minutes. When nearly cold, beat up with this the yolks of all the eggs and the white of three. ,Stir this mixture into the milk, season, and pour into shells of good paste. When the custard is "set'—but not more than half clone—spread over it the whites, whipped to a stiff froth, with two table- spoonfuls sugar. You may bake these custards without paste, in a pudding - dish, or cups set in boiling water. CHOCOLATE PIE.—Make plain cup cake, and bake in a deep pie -plate, having the cake thick enough to split. After splitting, spread one-half with a filling made as below, place the top piece on and sprinkle with powdered sugar. The cake should always be fresh. Filling : , One square of Bi+ker's chocolate ; one cup sugar, yolks of two eggs, one -this'd cup of boiling niilic. Mix the scraper chocolate and sugar to- gether, then add, very slowly, the boil- ing milk, next the eggs, and simmer ten minutes, being careful that it does not burn. Flavor with vanilla. Let it get entirely cold before using, PIE PLANT PTE.—One cup sugar; one egg; one heaping tablespoonful of flour; stir together, then add one cup of pie plant, peeled and sliced, season to suit the taste, arid bake with two crusts. This makes one pie. — MEAT SHORTCAKE—Take any cold meat such as the remnants of a roast, cold steak or boiled meat. Chop very fine ; add water until quite thin, season well, thicken a little. Make a shortcake same as for anything else ; when done split, pour over a portion of the meat, lay the other piece on top and pour over the reinairder. If you try this you will never regret it.
