A correspondent of the Montreal Witness Canadian Banks. in the United Stets', a bank director, in fact, sends that paper a clipping from an Anterican monthly journal purporting to 1 be a list of failed Canadian banks and the value of their bills " Our oorrespontlent," the Witneu says, "Boding most of the Mlle reported worthless, naturally desires to know how this statement is to be reconciled with the general concemitin of opinion among Canadians that our bank circulation is ale solutely safe, The list epparently covers the entire range of Canadian banking hie. tory, end the billm of twenty•four of these benks are declared to be worthless.

The only bank in Canada which hag not psid its note -hollers in full since IMO is the Maritime Bank. Of those banks whole notes are hesitated worthlese in the clipping several have not merely paid their note.holders in NIL but have liquidated all their other liabilitien et one hundred cents on the tiollar and fee- quently had a surptue remaining for diet i• button among the shareholders. The It eil- eral Bank, for example, whose notes are tucked only ninety•five eents,paid denote. holders in hill, and after dieeharging all its other lishilities to the outside public, paid, we believe, ninetydive cents to its share- holders In fact, it oan scarcely be said to have really failed. The Bank of London paid its liabilities in full also, and ninety- eight cents to its shareholdere, while the Consolidated liank paid twenty-one cents to its shareholders after discharging ail ob- ligations.

Arel, f urthermore, if, atter due notice, th4 holdere of notes do not avail themselves of the redemption, it may be claimed that they are no more entitled to deley than any other creditor who doe. not file his claim.

Canned Heiman hag been well cleaned out. It is more than probable that a large demand will elways exiet for tinned meats and fish, but the public is lees disposed to buy (lamed fruits and vegetables for more than one reason. The mupposed injurious effects of tin when brought into contact with acids ts hard to reason away, especi• ally when cases of poisoning are called to mind, although the blame really lies more with the consumer than the dealer, who Mould examine whet he le going to conk, or eat, to gee if it is fit for food, Tno many went into the trade at the outset, the remit beim( that goods were carried over from yeti'. to yeitr end deteriorated in quality. Nothing cen he len inviting to the average homeholder than deception in the way et stale canned goods, possibly opened up for consumption at a catnping out, many milea from lime. It must be borne in mind, adda the Journal of Commerce, that canned goods are a luxury, and that those who can afford to buy them ean pay for a fresh and consegnently more palatable artice. We are noW practically supplied with free' fruits and vegetable all the year round. Rapid railway transit has opened to us the marketa of California, Florida and even Australis.

The New Arm for Volunteers. The future arm of the Canadian Volun Uteri is to be the Martini. Metford rifle.

The Martini- Metford in a mall bore ride with so small a trajectory that it is fired point blank up to five hundred yards. We are not quite eat. tailed that General Herbert's reason for chooming a single loader for the Canadian militia im a good ono. It is probable that in inteltigenee, attentiveness and mechani• cal knowledge as well as in carefulnese, the Canadian volunteers are far superior to the British regular noldiers, and therefore far more capable of using and taking care of the mechanism of the magazine rifle. It ,etans to us that the sooner Canadians are lisciplitted and taught to use and take care of the magezine rifle the better.

It is one of the re. 0 tho development of intercontinental co unbeaten, by means 0,‘ che Canadian Pacific Railway, that more efficient provia. ion for the defence of Eaquimalt becomes at once desirable and feasible. So long as British Columbia was Notated from the rest of the continent by a sea voyage round the Horn, Esquinielt was valueltle only as a naval citation for ships navigating the Pact' tic onset. Now it is the western ootport at once of Canada and of the Empire. To hold Esquimalt is to hold the highway through the Dominion and to ,minnianti the defenees of Canada ill Uhl rear. It is also to command the coaling supply of the nortlewestent Ainericso cone. The beds of Nenainie, on the ipland of Vancouver, lontain the best coal which Nee been found hi those regions and supply a very large pert of the coal used in the Western Staten. In addition to these consideration'', the in. creasing aoinmercial impetance ot the town of Vancouver,on the mainland, which, from being the terminue of the railway, becomes also the emporium of the maritime trade of the Northern Pulite, has rooderell the question of defence of late years always more important.

A successful Rue. than roue .1, main might, in tho event of a European war, put the whole of this trade in Russian hands, and, though the coast must evidently depend for its main defence upon the ships of the naval ststion, it is only the more advisable that the naval Mo- tion should be rendered practically impreg- nable by the resources of inodern engineer- ing and modern armament. The harbour of Esquitnalt is one of the most lovely eitua• Gong on a lovely coast." With thote words ringing in our ears it is easy to believe, as an old military man remarked the other day; " When Commis agrees to ennexistion, if alio ever doter and I don't believe ehe ever will, the greatest empire on earth will perforce aleo have something to say in the matter. She will not hamper the people in making a free choice, Itut, there are many details of importance that will have to be agreed upon. ' — — Money Well Spent.

The reporters' gallery in the Home of Common' ie about 5 feet in width, awl stretches immediately above the chair of the Speaker. It contains about 30 seats, 15 on each aide, but it is only on the occasion of impogtant debates that these are occupied ell the time. A tone =crow desk rune down the entire front fitted with drawer& for the storing of "copy" psper or copies of bills. So good are the acoustic properties 01 the chamber, and so well situated is the gallery, that almost the faintest whisper on the part of any legislator cen be' heard; saul nom of the cross -firing that accompanies a fierce debate is lost. The rate of speed at which members talk in the House of Comntons averages from 140 to 150 words. There ore • number who talk far in excess of that rste. Judge Lem dry, formerly M. P. for Kent, N.

TIIE HARD WoRKED REPORTERS., Reporting in the Rouse is sometimes of a very arduous °tweeter. The rnpnrter is not like the member able to go and return when he pleases, merely leaving hie =hese even with the whip. Sometimes it is a constant grind from 3 o'c/ook in the after. noon until o'slock the following morning.

P. Low, has a tatik before him which far exceeds anything that lias over been aceotnplisited in the way of exploration, if we except, the journey whioh Dr. Kisim made in le55 down the coast of Greenland. Mr. Low ham undertaken to go through the heart of the Labrador peninsula, and left ()thieve last June for that purpose. Ile will go to Mistemaimie, north of Lake St. John, and pane from there northeant to Nitehogoon, and then nay proceed north to Hielmoti'm Strait or eastwards to the La. brasier Coast. The Lebrador country is prolehly the rengliest on the face of the globe. Travelers who hove been up tho Saguenay or along the north shore of the fiulf of St. Lewrence can form some hies of the mountainous character of the region. Mr. Low hes ito otiviable trak before him, cepecially al he will have to winter in the interior of Labrador. He, however, expects to complete the exploration in two years. When one attempts to form an idea of the labor* of these Canediau explorers he realizes that an expedition such as that of Stanley Africa will not bear comparison with one such es that being !nide by Mr. Low. Stanley had ueually to contend only veith numbere; he had s large army with him ; provisions could always be obtained and his personal safety was alwaye ensured. In one of those Canadian expedition. half. a.dozen men start oat in It 'woe with all their belonginge and go into% wilderness to contend against famine, danger. of running rapids and the intenee cold of the northern winter.
