The Libe- rals who had vote 1 with Ontario were made special objects of hate, and a dead set was made against such Liberals as Messrs. Geoffrion and Holton. The true position is put by the Herald when it says that "it is quite true that several Liberal members frootn this Province voted to postpone the transfer for the disputed territory to. Ontario, and for so doing they were warmly commended by the Government organs. But those Liberals who voted against the confirma- tion of the award of the Commissioners were not playing a double part. They did not pose as the friends and benefac- tors of Ontario. They voted against that award for precisely the same reasons that prompted Mr. Mousseau and the members for Cardwell to vote as they did -because they believed that the dis- trict in dispute should not be transferred to Ontario at all." A Coolest at Fees. The Mail has more than once referred to the fact that Mr. Blake received $600 for acting as counsel in A very important cane on behalf of the Local Government. The Moil would have the public believe that this is a large fee in an important case affecting the rights of the Province, and one which required a great deal of research, because it involved principles lying outside of the beaten track of the practitioner. Sir John A. Macdonald paid the late Chief Justice Harrison $12- 000, we believe, f ,r prosecuting a few Fe- nian. at the assizes. We are not aware that the Tory organs then complained, and the .Moil will hardly contend that Mr. Blake is entitled to less than a fraction of the fee paid to the late Mr. Harrison, Sir John Macdonald is coun- sel for the Trust and Loan Company. He received from the Company last year $4,000 for hi.. services, which we will venture to affirm were less than Mr. Blake's in the one case referred, to by the Mui!, in which he received lei• than one-sixth this sum. We have no dis- position to drag the private and profes- atonal acts of the leader of the Tory par- ty before the public, but he is never wearied in pursuing this policy towards others. His organs do hi. biddmv : the perwnalties in which they indulge ate at his instance. What they say of Mr. Blake is said up.m his advice. The Tor- onto Mail dare not give an opinion on the weather without first consulting Sir John.

The meet - nem of the order has taken every - y by serene'', and the fact that most of the pbpi1a had just obtained the book has lad tu considerable irritation. It may be aa well to state how the book came to be put on the list of works to be read in high sehteils during this school year. Every fine years a committee of the senate of the University of Toronto, is appointed to overhaul the curriculum, to suggest at y important changes re- quiring to be made, and to prescribe the texts to be read in the various depart- ments during the next five years. Of course the professors of the various de- partments in University College suggest what should be prescribed, and their wishes, we imagine, are always followed. The latest curriculum wits issued in 1889, and although it has been some- what modified since its first issue to meet the wishes of St. Michael'soollege,which has been affiliated with the university of Toronto since that time, the course in moat departmente stand precisely as fixed in 1880. Dr. Daniel Wilson, be- ing professor of English literature, pre- scribed the course of study in English, and he selected "Marmion" as a work suitable for junior m ttrlculation. It fell to be read in 1883. Shortly after the high school interme- diate was started the educational author- ities resolved to prescribe for that ex- amination the text book selected each year for the matriculation examination by the university of Toronto. Hence Mannion was to be read during the arming year fur the intermediate. It will be seen that Mr. Crooke, did not prescribe the work, and it is pretty certain that he would not cause the work to ne examined as to its suitability for school purposes It would seem that soon after the school opened, Mr. Crook's attention was called to certrn passages in the first canto as objection- able in point of morality, and to certain others throughout the poem as tasting re flections on the Roman Catholic church. The result was the now famous order to stop reading the book. The question is now being fiercely debated in the politi- cal journals, and of coutbe much non- sense is being talked on both sides.

It is uftuu said that great caution ought to be e'etvised in introducing peo- ple to each other, but 1 somewhat exag- gerated importance has been at4ahed to this point. As nee, yes aro not likely to meet in any bowie where you yourself visit any peesoa whoa you world not be williai to know. 11 Se meant court- esy, however, whoa $ gegilslatia has ex- pressed a wish to h• pregea4i to a lady to tan her of it and ask her permission in advance. There is even something in the very fact that the wau has desir- ed to know her which would incline a woman favorably. toward him. A man is introduced to a lady, or two ladies or two gentlemen the younger is presented to the elder or the least distinguished to the tetter known. It is always well to give two strangers a slight hint on which a conversation can be based. 1f you arc introduced to Mr. Hardy, it is a name, no more ; but if your hostess adds, 'Mr. Hardy, of whose novels you are so fond,' you at once understand the value of your opportunity. It is better to present "Mr. Browne from New York," than merely Mr Brown -the name of the city may recall thethought of some common friend; atthe least It gives you a score of suggestions for the first conversation which between shy people is often an effort. If you know that your interlocutor is an author an artist, a musician, you are thus furn- ished a key to whatever is most interest- ing in his range of thought and exper- ience. It would have been hard to for- give a hostess who would have presented Trelawney to you without letting you know it was the Trelawney of Bryon and Shelley ; or Severn, without any sug- gestion, that it was the Severn whom Keats Loved. One likes to know every one who has bean neighbor to the rose. It is rudeness, when some one asks to be presented to you, not to use your best effort. to make the conversation pleasant. Merely to bow and say good evening is not aufficient. The small coin of social intercourse is imperatively called for. Especially when you are the hostess and a guest has been brought by a friend, all your social tact would be well employed to make the new -Cotner fol misrepresentations. Taking West Huron as an illustration, how is the charge sustained that the License Law has turned into a political machine 1 Why, of the fifty-three men holding li- quor licensee in West Huron, fifteen are Reformer.. Does that look as if the Re- formers were favored at the expense of Conservatives 1 not very much. In Clinton two out of seven hotals are con- ducted by Reformers. Of the thirteen hotels and liquor shops in Goderich, but four are run by Reformers, and Tim SroNAL very truly says that the Conser- vative liquor dealers of Huron are dis- gusted with the hypocrisy and meanness of the Tory press on the license question None of thein would care to do business again tinder the old system. As a proof of this fact we give below an extract from a memorial to the Government by the Licensed Victuallers' Association, in l'January, 1876:- "We are agreed in this, that the Act of the Ontario Legislature known as the "Crooks Act" is, on the whole, a fair and just enactment, and if its provisions were strictly carried out and enforced with Sonne slight alterations, to which are shall hereafter refer), we think that intetnperance would greatly decrease, and the public on the one hand and the ta,yern keepers on the other would be generally satisfied."

By this process part of the starch of which the grain is mostly composed has been converted into sugar, and a new substance has been developed, known as disasiase, a nitrogenous body, which immediately, when the malt is mixed with water, reacts on the remaining starch and transforms it also into sugar, the liquid consequently soon assusiing a sweet taste. We have now, in fact, a solution of sugar, which is known as wort ; bnt we may attain the same by using unmalted grain -potatoes, peas, beans, or other starchy materials, which, by the addition of dilute sulphuric acid, is converted into a soluble sugar. Hav- ing thus obtained a solution of sugar from any of these sources, or still more directly from beet root or "toothsome cane," yeast is added to the wort, and the process of "fermentation," is rapid- ly set up by.which the sugar .is decom- posed into ton chief dreducts, alcohol and carbonic acid gas, and several minor ones, glycerine, succinic acid, etc., 95 out of every 100 parts of sugar being transformed into alcohol rad carbonic acid, four parts going to form glycerine, etc., and one part as nourishment to the yeast plaut, which has multiplied im- mensely, and now forms a frothy scum upon the surface of the liquid. By the fermentation spirits have been produced, and the object of the next process, the distillation of the fermented wort or mash, is to separate the spirits from the liquid in which it exists. The produce of this operation is an impure spirit known as "law wines," which has to be redistilled at a lower temperature to get rid of part of the water and oils with which it is contaminated, the product of this second distillation being the mix- ture of alcohol and water known u "whisky" or "spirits of wine," because it was by the distillation of wine that spirits were first obtained. --[Chambers' Journal.

As he had no counsel the court appointed a young lawyer to take charge of the de- fence. The lawyer alluded to his client as "a child of the sad sea waves, a nur- sling of the storm, whom the pitiless billows had cast a forlorn and friendless waif, upon the shores of bene, after a life spent in tierce and heroic contests With the reigning elements." Then the defendant was put in the dock, and the fact was revealed that he was cook on a canal bort, previous to which he had hawked fish. The "nlirsline of the storm" is now in jail for six months. - [Ex. True to ser Trust.
