Compared with the, cut•real,ttndine period of last year there is an he:reale of ti 11,.05ii,- 000, this year's figures reaching the unprecedented luta) (if k196,017,000, ae against 8184,e62,000 in 1898. IN'hile experts decreased by 84,703,- 000, the balance of t. ade between imports and experts wits 817,123,- 000 in favo of Oneida, In the seven month's period of 1.898 99 we exported $106,570,000 and imported 1'tS9,447,000 while during the corresponding period of 1897.98 we exported 8111,274,030 and imported S73 688,000. The duty collected. on imports was F4111,408,030 and $12,- 198, 51.5 respectively, an increase for :the seven months of 82,209,515. For the month of January 1899 the figures show exports of $7,667,000 as against 510,654,000 last year and imports of S10,485,000 as compared �ivith $9,887,000. It is from figures such as these, that Sir Chatles Tupper and his political friends must obtain -evidence of a fulfillment of their. prophecies ofcommercial ruin and national disaster, which they so; ',confidently predicted would follow the accession of the Liberals to power. If they sneceed in c.rnvine- • ing their supporters of the correct- ness of these predictions, figures Ban .indeed be made to prove any- thing. LOCAL POLITICS IN NEW BRUNS- 1 WICK. . The Local elections in New Brunswick ere over, and while there has never been any reasonable doubt that the Etnmerson Govern-, anent would be sustained, no one anticipated the practical al nilifla- tiorl of the Conservative party which was the result of the poll, for out of a total membership of fertysix there are only four straight Con -t ser vatives, end two • Independents who will support the Government. 'or many years the affairs of the' Province have been in the hands of a, coalition Government in which the minority have had representation Considerably in' excess of their 'numerical strength either in the Rouse or in the Province, but this refection was run on • straight party Sines, the Federal Opposition leaders ilaving'deeided that this would give Omen, better opportunity to capture the Treasury benches. How wofelly their. plans have miscarried is shown by the result of last Satur- day's vote. THEY DO NOT SING THE OLD SONG. Tupper cabinet, atatei his belief to the 0:tawa Citizen that the Con- eervatives who rallied t'1 the support of the Etnint'rsi'Ii Government would now detit:itely Ieautin in the Liberal eatup.The one grain feomn whieh the ()ppositietn has se farenceeeded in extracting from thesituatittn is the rc'adstu itt'„'', tit}nutlnctntent that "141 le Meter is not :erre tllg.

The following paragraph from the Agricultural Gazette, London, Eng., of the 30th ult., will be read with interest by farmers all over the' country :-"Messrs. Alfred Mansell & Co., Shrewsbury, have shipped by the White Star Line from Liverpool a small .but choice selection of eleven Shropshire ewe lambs and one ram lamb for the Hon. John Dryden, M. P. P.. Minister. t•f Agriculture furl Ontario, owning for their sires such exceptionally good rams as Butter Blue 9377, bred by Mr. David Butter. and purchased . co - jointly by .Mr. .

British farmers who have got their ideas of the climatic conditions of Canada from the old orthodox pictures of winter here and from Mr. Kipling's poetic imagery, must have been somewhat startled by a state- ment which appeared the other day in a leading English agricaltural weekly to the effect that a remark- able agricultural experiment was successfully tried during the past summer in the fa'' Northwest. The Members of a Roman Catholics mission at Fort Providence succeeded in reaping "a very fine wheat harvest," the period between seed time and harvest having been ninety- one days. Fort Providence is on the Mackenzie River just west of the Great Blave Lake, in a latitude something over 62 deg.—the latitude, that is of the Faroe Islands,Southern Greenland, and Hudson Strait. It is about 600 miles north of Edmon- ton, in western Alberta, 1100 miles north of the international boundary, and less than 200 miles south of the latitude of Dawson City." ONTARIO'S STOCK OF LIVE STOCK. According to the latest published returns of the several classes of live stock in Ontario at the close of 1898 are as follows : Agricultural horses, 611,291 against 613,670 for 1897 ; eattie, 2,216,993 against 2,182,326 ; sheep, 1,677.014 against 1,690,350 ; pigs, 1,642.787 against 1,284,963 Altogether the account of agriculture in Ontario for 1898 Is a prosperous one.
