Controversy.
We are free to admit that having
published Mr Cameron's letter to Mf

McGillicuddy, the reply of the latter i
lq"i,:,.,, • -entitled to a place in our columns. But
1 `• if we publish that reply we are in duty
:bound to publish any letter Mr Came
N,', ron writes, and the thing might go or
,ad infinitum. We think it beat, there•
'i, fore, though it may seem unfair to do
r„�t':- so, to withhold Mr McGillicuddy's re
F ' ply, and' at the same time we omit, a
'�,, reply to it, received this week from Mr
'r ” Cameron. We fail to see that any good
�' whatever will ensue by the further
,,F .,.; publication of the letters. The matter
l,; '' its one in which the two persons are
#�, more directly concerned than the pub•
r lie, and it will be infinitely better tc

. Cattle' Business.
q' _
r The Toronto World says:-
}h',. ."Twenty-five car loads for the Buf-
`� �'' falo cattle market passed through Tor.
_' onto yesterday morning."
1w .
ltrT . Small as this item is there is room for
-JNt, �, a good deal of hard thinking about it.
;�'�:', During this season there has been an
4
average of 15 or 20 car load of cattle
- stockers - shipped from Toronto
r < .weekly for Buffalo market. Then they
t):",
� - are shipped from Buffalo to farmers in
"� the Western States, who fatten them.
,,Now this represents at least,two pro-
Sts on the handling of those cattle, but
-p1rofits tbatdid not come intothe hands
of the Canadian farmer. The mistake
,Co- made is ie selling those stockers in the
sf,, first place. Every Canadian farmer
�_ -rtvho is in aposition to feed cattle should
!�.,,; . "tten the stock on his own farm. He
itierives double the advantage of enrich -
f ,,, in his own land, and getting the pro-
?" $ta for his fatted cattle, which now the
`'-`.; or
farmericoeives. Somefarm-
'z ," ers are compelled to sell their cattle be-
` fore they are fat, but it should not take
i Tong for the average farmer to put him-
self in a position whereby he is able to
fatten his own stock. Good farmers
say that no grain Should leave a farm
except in the shape of beef. Buyers of
• "'batttle complain that Canadian farmers,
as a'rule, do not fatten their stock to
m2ake them equal to American expos t
,icAattle. and the consequence is that the
fatter fetch a higher price than ours do.
,Tow, that corn 1s accessible at a mod-
terate price, there is no use for this
stateof thingscontiuuing.

A magnificent reception was s000rdei
Ron, Wilfrid Laurier and wife, on tbeh
arrival at Quebec on Saturday, and in hii
reply the Premier spoke as follows: -
Mr Mayor, ladies and gentlemen, -Hoes
can I And words to express to ) on the sent .
ments of gratitude which fill my heart ai
the eight of this immense audience, come
from all parte of the country to offer me
their sincere congratulations ? How can 1
I find wordei to tell you what are my feelings
which fill my soul as a Canadian, and hove
' proud I am of my origin, of my nationality
and of my country, in the face of this aud•
ience, in the face of this panorama which 1
have ander my eyes and which has no rival
I am sure, in the world ? Gentlemen, it 1
may believe the terms of the address, the
voyage which I have just made in England,
in France, in*. Europe, has found some
echo in the herts of my fellow -country.
men. Let me tell you without any hesita-
tion that the flaeet part of that voyage,
which, perhaps, I can say without boast-
ing has 'had some success, that the finest
part of that voyage is the return, (Applause)
I loved my country when I was going away,
1 love it a hundred times more on my re-
turn. (Applause) I was proud of my coun-
try before having seen the countries of
Europe, and now that I have seen the most
famous of those countries, I am a hundred
times more proud than I was before of
Canada, my native country, (Applause) I
have seen the hills of Scotland. I have
seen the fields of England adorned with
woods luxuriant in richness. I have seen
the fertile plains of France covered with
grain and vinee. I have seen the moun-
tains, the lakes, the valleys of Switzerland,
famous for their beauty, eternally young,
celebrated especially because they were the
cradle of liberty in Europe, at a time when
liberty was unknown. I have seen Italy, I
have seen the plains of Lombardy, those
plains wboh Bonaparte showed to his sol-
'3iere and which he pointed out to them' as
the flneSt in the world. I have seen the
hills of Tuscany, with their feet bathed in
the azure waves of the Mediterranean,
while on their sides the vines and the olive
stretch up to the most inaccessible heights.
Gentlemen, we must recognize it, heaven
has been pro3igal in its gifts to these coun-
tries; but let me tell you that, however fine
they may be, Canada is still finer. (Ap-
plause) I have Been London with its im-
mense wealth. I have seen Paris with its
in, omparable artistic beauty, I have seen
rome with all its treasures—well, neither
London, nor Paris. nor Rome, not even
Rome, though it be the oapltal of the relig-
ion to which I belong, have spoken ,to my
soul like the rook of Quebec when I per-
ceived it on my return. • (Applause.)
What the Papers Say.
The surest way to get gold out of the
earth is to cultivate the soil. -New York
World.
Canada is here to stay, and is going to
manage her own affairs according to the
notions of her own citizens. There is no-
thing "international" about this. We in.
terfere with nobody else's business and we
intend to be left- free to attend to our own. -

After the Conservatives came into power
in 1878, Mr, Rufus Stephenson, then M. P.
for Kent, said that be would continue to
support a government which had raised
the price of wheat. Wheat brings many
cents more per bushel than it did in the
last year of the late Conservative Govern.
ment of uanada. Will the men who gave
the Conservative Government credit for
raising the price of wheat extend the same
courtesy to the present Administration of
Canada? If not, why not? -London Ad-
vertiser.
The Montreal Star, Conservative,
says: -Never since Canada bore a
name and was a country, has she greet-
ed one of her sons in a manner to com-
pare with that accorded to the Right
Honorable Sir Wilfrid Laurier yester-
day. It•;vas not only in Montreal last
evening that the Premier received the
hearty greetings of the people, but the
whole way up the St. Lawrence was a
continuous ovation which the newly
made Canadian knight might well be
proud of,

of the County of Perth, at Stratford, com-
menoed its sittings before Hon. Chancellor
Boyd, on Tuesday.
60,000 people welcomed Laurier at Mon-

while the enhanced value of grain had
given them increased confidence and hope
in looking into the future.
Charles Durand, the noted patriot and
friend of William Lyon Mackenzie, died at
Toronto, Friday morning. He was born in
