A amen in the question that the National Policy has prime of life, possessed of as splendidly f not produced the ruin predicted --by developed physique, few imagined that pressimistie prophets of the Free Trade the ,days of his usefulness would be F s,llool-that on the contrary, it has seen cut short, He is dead, however, I largely contributed towards the getter - and, thonudseudfi who had him, to re. al welfare of the poeple ,spec. will not soon forget his mann excellent qualities and the untiring efforts put forth by him in the interests of his native prov- ince. The man who hes no enemies, seldom has many warm friends, and Mr. Norquay was no exception to the rule. From the first hour responsible k Government was enjoyed by Manitoba, the lamented gentleman held a seat in the Legislature. Step by step he umlauted the ladder, until the highest; honors cozferable by the people, were, accorded to him. Naturally enough. 1 Izcrtle who wanted office, struggled to l tall hint dawn, and the petty artifices and i demo ogle intrgues of such, az eventually prevailed, after which, al- though leader of the Oppositiou, the ex-Premiervirtually retired from public life, to devote himself to business, prov- ing the manliness of his nature by the philosophy with. which he accepted the inevitable. The Lemented gentleman, was born on the 8th of May, 1841, and was tluertivre in itis fort-nizzeh year x wizen railed .away. He tool; a promi- nent ttart in all diseussious relating to este Reel River Rebellion of '69.70, his moderation, practical common sense' atsa*L undoubted eloquence, securing for him a foremost place in the ranks of public men in his province. His advancement was rapid; he became a inenaber of the Executive Council, Minister of Public Works and Agri- culture, Provincial Secretary, need in 1878 formed a. Government as Premier. Subsequently, he became Treasurer of the Province, resigning on the 27th of August, 1$86, and becoming a Railway Commissioner. Ile after- wards went into opposition with his party. upon Air, Greenway attaining power. Mr. Norquay was indefatig- able. in his efforts to bring about the best possible feeling between the Pro- vincial and Federal authorities; and nearly all the principal measures re- lating to municipal law drainage, railway extension and general dev el. opment, were either initiated or aadvo eated by hint. A Conservative, his loss to the party will be severer felt, for men possessed greater abilities, or were better adapted to political life. "He sleeps, and life's poor play is o'er;" a brilliant ettreer is nipped in the bud, a vacancy created for some new man to fill. It will be long, however, ere the name of John Norquay is forgotten; death will .ensure to him his proper place in the history of Manitoba, and envy, ceasing to disparage, will record upon dull, cold marble, what was de- nied to a worthy ma,i, when in the full flush of life. The statement has been made by Op- position organs that the increase in Post Office Savings Bank deposits has been at the expense of other sitvings institution -that is to say, deposits have been withdrawn from other backs and placed in the Post •Office Savings Banks. This is . notoriously untrue. There has been a remarkable increase in every case. By way of comparison we draw attention to the amount at the credit of depositors in the Pot Office Savings Banks, in the chartered banks, in the Government Savings Bank -which has nothing to do with the Post Office Savings Banks -for the two periods of 1877-78 and 1887-88, and in the loan societies in 1877-78 and in 1886-S7, the latter being the last year for which we have returns, cents being omitted, and the returns being to the 30th of June.

A sad drowning accident occurred in West Williams last:Friday, by which a boy named Dougall McIntosh, aged 13 yerrs, son of Mr. Angus McIntosh, lost his life.

A hard specimen of cruelty to ani- mals was witnessed on a certain farm on the 16th con., Hullett, one day late- ly and we suppose can still be seen. It is a cow with her front foot strapped to her body so that it does not touch the ground and the animal is only a living skeleton. What has become of the humane society? During the severe thunder storm last Thursday, two valuable colts be- longing to Major John. McCleod, near Brooksdale, were struck by lightning and killed.
