VIRTHS, MARRUGES AND
,DE AT HE
The annual report a tho Provincial
Secretary a outario relating to births/
Marriages and d.eatlis for the yea1868
has been received, According to the
returns made to the department the
births of the year numbered 46,953 ;the
marriages 14,551; and the deaths. 28, -
The births in the cities numbered 8,-
880; an increase of 321, and a proper
-
tion of 270 per 1000. In thetprincipal
towns khey numbered 2,617, an in-
crease of 420, and a proportion of 23.4
per 1,000. In the rural districts the
number registered was 35,456, a pro-
portion of 20.7 per 1,000 living. Four
0 the eleven cities, London, Kingston,
Brantford and Guelph, returned an in-
crease in the number of births in 1887
ever the number returned in 1886. In
1888 they returned a decrease; and in
three of the other cities, Ottawa, St.
Thomas and St Catharines, there was a
decrease in 1887and an increase in
1888. The change was the greatest in
Ottawa. In 1886 that city returned
244 more births than in 1885. In 1887
the registration of births was 375 less
than in 1886, and in 1888 they num-
bered 353 more than in 1887. The re
turn of births received from •the City
ofToronto show a steady increase in
nuanber every year. There ware 24,-
354 male and 22,599 female births in
1888, ai proportion of 107.6 males to 100
females, not quite so great as in 1887.
4The largest excess of male over female
"births during the last ten years was in
1885, the proportion in that year was
1.09 males and 100 females. The
• month which gave the largest excess
-was in October, 1123 to 100, and the
smallest in November, 100.8 to 100.
The month of . January returned the
largest excess of male bieths in,the cit-
ies, 125.3 to 100, and July the least,
100.9 to 100 female births. The num
her of illegitimate births registered was
618; an increase of 222 over the pre
ecinus year. The births of twins child:
zan appear to be decreasing. In 1887'
the number registered was 72 pairs
less than 1886;in 1888 the number was
54 pairs less than in 1887: No cases of
triplets Were registered in 1887. In
1888 three cases were reported, wiz.eine
from the county of Middlesex, one from.
ithe united' ccain ties of Stormont, °
.des and Glengary, and :one •from the.
se ounty of Welland.
As stated, the nuMbee of, marriages
t registered during the year was 14,551,
:An increase of 91 over theprevious
,year, ging a rate of 13.4 married to
1000 living. From a denominational
• standpoint, it appears that the religion
_ of those married was as follows- Meth-
. milks, 10,057 ;Presbyterians, 5,713; E.
pi.scopillians, 5,209; Roman ..Catholics.
4,043 Baptists, 1,582; Liithera.na 591;
Congregationalists„ 565, mid the others
s divided among smaller denominations.
December seems to be the most popular month fot marriages, and August
the least popular: During the year 2,-
7,67 persons were married under twen-
ty years of age, of whom .• 2,560 were
males and 207 females." In the next
period, between twentr:five years, 11,-
566 persons were maeried, 6,578 fe-
males and 4,988 Males, showing that
the proportion of females to males was
not nearly so great as in the preceed-
Ang period. In every, other period of
:life the ages of the males when mar -
reed exeeeded those of the females.
There were thirty-one persons mar -
Tied at seventy years and oyer,twenty-
nine bridegrooms and two brides, The
oldest bridegroom was eighty-four
years, and the oldest bride seventy-two
years, The United 'ages. of the oldest
couple, married Was 148; their respect.
ive ages were s,eienty-eight and seven-
ty years. The greatest disparity be-
tween the agee.of and couple married
was that of a men eighty-four years
old, who toek ,for his wife a girl of the
age of seventeen years. Coming to
youthful marriages, nine girls were
enarried at the age of fourteen and
.,teveney.five at fifteen years. Two boys
at the age of seventeen and seven at
eighteen years were maeried. In one
eease the bridegroom was seventeen
,and the bride fourteen years.
Coming to deaths, it appeaks that the
rate evas a little Tower in 1888 than in
1887, owing to an allowance ' belief
made for inci'ease of population. The
report says the greatest variety in the
• returre8 eerne frern tho County'0 Car-
leton. In 1886 it retierried 1,487 deaths
.,arl increase of 280 over the eumber
returned in 1885; in 1857 the number
of deaths returned was 1,225, a de-
crease of 261; again ie 1888 the same
county retureed 1,382 deaths, an in-
crease ef 151, Of the 23,782 persons
reported as haying" died dttring the
year, 12.512 were males and 11,220
were females, giving, a proportion of
111.5 males to 100 females, The pro-
portion in. 1887 was 108.8 to 100. In
the births registered in the province in
1888 the propoetion between the sexes
was 107'6 males to 100 females; there-
fore, the proportion of male to female
deaths was greater than the proportion
of male to female births, the periods of
life under one year, from one to five
and from five to ten years the mortal-
ity of males exceeded that of the Fe-
males, and also in all the periods from
fifty years and upwards, exceptsin the
age between ninety and a hundred
years, where the female deaths exceed-
ed the males. In the periods from ten
to fifteen years, and in each of the four
succeeding periods, viz: from fifteen to
twenty years; twenty to thirty years;
thirty to forty years, and forty to fifty
years, more female deaths were record-
ed than males. In the cities the 'pro-
portion between male and female births
was 110.8 males to 100 females, ia
the deaths 114.9 males to 100 females,
therefore the proportion between the
sexes was greater in the cities than in
the province.
The ten highest causes of deaths
were as follows. Pheumonia, 2,537;
phthisis, 2,521; old age, 2,365; nervous
diseases, 2,275; anrernia, 2,271; heart
disease, 1,567; diphtheeia, 1,088; dial
rhceal diseases,934; ehteritis,909 ;fevers,
850. During the year twenty-one per-
sons died in the Province of Ontario
who were a hundred years old or up:
wards. The oldest person who died
during the year was Israel Talbot, of
the Township of South Norwich, in the
County of Oxford. He was a native of
the United States.
rail -ways in particular ,seerued to have
failed to provide need facilities for the
prompt and carefnl movement of per
ishable fruits. This is, of course, a
matter of the Very first importance,
as every thing depends on getting the
more delicate fruit to market in a fresh,
sound and attractive condition. The
attention of railway managers have
been called to the matter, they well
surely see that it is in their own inter-
est, to provide the best facilities. Even
if the business be yet too small to war
rant the outlay required, it is dear
that under such stimulus as better fac-
ilities for getting to market, the
traffic would rapidly increase, The
Minister of Agriculture certaidy de-
seryes credit for the energetic attention
he is giving to this and 'other depart-
ments of agriculture, ant the whole
country can. hardly fail to profit
greatly by the encouragement to more
intelligent and advance,Vmethods, in
all branches of this staple Canadian
industry. It is not easy to Conceive of
a more interesting,,and delightful oc-
cupation than that of the scientifie
horticulturist, and the department of
fruit culture is one of the most attrac-
tive brandies It would be well for the
country if much larva -01r dth-bers of
educated and energetic young men
could be induced to make this their
chosen industry, and enter into it with
the combined patience and enthusiasm
which are born of kno.sledee and es-

THE PBTMIER HONOURED.
On Friday afternoon Sir John Mac-
donald was the recipient of an oil paint:
•ing of himself from political supporters
in both Houses of . Parliament. The
presentation was made by Senator 0
gievie on.behalt oftlie donors, and in,
acknowledging the compliment Sir
John ,made abrief speech;ailitcling to a
few of the incidents'of:hie political cae
reer, in the course of which he traced
the growth of the present Liberal -Cons
servativeparty, of which for many
years he had been the esteemed and
honoured leader. Ile acknowledged
the faithful services of his followers,'
and Paid a tribute to the ability of
those who.supported him in the pre
Parliainent Sir John appeared to be
deeplysaffected by this letest mark of
confidence and esteem, on the, part of
these who acknowledge his °political
leadership. He is now in his seventy-
sixth year, and it safe to say that that
at no time in his long period of public
service has he so generally enjoyed the
personal affection and political attach-
ment of Conservatives as he does to-
day; while the "Ivekls' he has on the
county at large was never stronger.
He has fought many battles -"the hero
of a hundred fight," and he has gained
many significent victOries; and al-
though he is now an ad man, „it is
most gratifying to his followers in Par-
liament to find him in the possession of
his mental powers unimpaired and
blessed with physical steng.th sufficient
to enable him to discharge the onerous
duties connected with one of the most
important departments of the public
service and with the responsible ,posi-
tion of Prime Minister. That the vet-
eran Premier may long, be spared to
the country, to the promotion of whose
progress and advancement the best
years of his life have beep devoted, is
the earnest wish of his followers in
Parliament and of his many thousands
of admirers throughout the Dominion.

The ease against Mr. D. McColl, of
Parkhill,clarged with the manslaught-
er of Mr. 014S. Blaneliard, of the same
place, was dismissed last Monday, by
Magistrate Jervis, of London. The
reason the matter was not sooner set-
tled, was that the friends of the deceas-
ed were led to belieVe _that new and
importaut evidence could be obtained
in the matter, which if true would not
warrant them in permitting the mat-
ter to drop. But it appears that be-
yond what the inquest revealed, no ad-
ditional evidence of an important
nature is to be had. In connection
with the case one report has been go-
ing the rounds for which there is not a
particle of foundation, namely that the
jury at the inquest, were prejudiced
against the deceased, and that the fore-
man was heard to make statements re-
flecting injuriously on the character
of the deceased We have the author
ity of the foreman of the jury for stat-
ing,and all who know him believe his
word, that he never made any such eX-
pressitins as are attributed to him, re
specting the tete Mr. Blanchard,. either
during the progress of the investiga-
tion or at any other time.

Dastardly Doings at Dover.
Port Dover Junction, Feb. 18. -(Spe-
cial.) -The railway tralnwrecker keeps
at his work on the Michigan Central
road. On -Feb. 12th an attempt was
made to ditch Express No 20, going
east'near Hagerville, a number of
fence rails having been laid across the
track. This failed; and a second trial
was made near Courtland on the
14th of February Five railroad ties
were throwe aerosS the eails, and the
express dashed into them at the rate of
a mile a minute. The engineer was
sure he had struck something, but did
not pull up till the Dover Junction was
reached, when he discovered that the
ties were on the front of the engine,
having been lifted there from the track
by the cowcatcher. The third attempt
was made at one o'clock yesterday
morning about a mile east of this
place, and the men engaged in the af-
fair must have been fiends, indeed.
Two large steneS were rolled on the
track, one of which would weigh about
500 pounds The place chosen for the
commission of this black crime was at
the west end of an embankment, about
40 feet deep, apd just where the rail-
road crosses Big Creek. The express
came dashing along at'i great rate of
speed, and struck the stones,. seeding
one on either side of the track, a dis-
tance of about 50 feet,vvhen theyrollecl to
the bottom of the embankment. Had
the tram' gone over at this point it is
hard to see how any Of the, passereeers
could have escaped. Those who ''had
not been killed instantly would have
in all probability been drowned. De-
tective HeenAlitvas on the ground a.
bout 4 o'clock 'in the morning, and
tracked the would •be-trairewreckers for
a considerable clistance,but as they ap
Peered to double on their tracks no de
finite idea of the way they had come
or gone to the scene of their attempted
crime could be ascertained. That they
were in no hurry to leave was quite
evident, as a number of sWitchrods
were afterwards laid acroes the track
about half a mile further 0 t8t, and
w(.we displaced by e freight train Ie
the afternoon Detective Heenan was
joined by the Superintendent of the
C. R. detective atAlT, from Detroit, awl
the two have been working steadily
ever since in endeavoring to track the
villans. This morning they loft here
in a buggy for Delhi for the purpose of
looking after some suspicious char tet
ers Seeu about that place. it is quite
safe to say that this attempt to ditch
the express is the most diabolical act
ever heard of hereabouts And the per-
petrators, if caught, should receive a
most severe punishment.

The annual meeting of this Conipeni
held at its bead office, Toronto, on Tuesday
the 281h of January, 1890. There was a large
attendance of those interested in the institu-
tion. The Directors' report showed that the
new business for the pttst year was the largest
in the history of the Company; also that
large increases had been made in every branch
of the Company's business, tending to its con-
tinued progress and prosperity. It was also
pointed out that the greater part of the Com-
pany's business was on the Iltemi Tontine in-
vestment plan and further that nearly all
the Home companies were now issuing poll. -
cies on this plan under one name or another,
clearly indicating that the insurhig public
prefer this form of insurance. The Fin-
ancial Statement together with the auditors'
report thereon, was duly submitted to the
meeting.

Mr. John L. Biaikie, Vice -President of the
Company took the chair in the absenceof the
President, Hon. A. Mackenzie'M. P., who
was attending to his duties at Ottawa. The
hon. gentleman, however, did not forget the
company with which he haeheen connect-
ed since its inception, and ,addresseda letter
to the Policy Holders and Guarantors, *hick
was read at the meeting. Be expressed his
regret at pot being present and especially so,
as Pie Year 1889 was the *oat successful in
Abe:history-of the Rompan3r, and the state:
went showed the, (greatest advance of any
year, ,He. also dwelt on the fact that the :as-
sets had in every instance been brought
down tei e cash basis thereby continuing inp
thaaarae course that hid been adopted at the
outset, Viz.; to build the Company up' on a
solid foundation.
The letter from the President was received
with loud applause. •
Mr. Blaikie, the Vice -President, then ad-
dressed the meeting and dealt very fully with
the main, features of the report. He
also referred in feeling terms' to the loss
sustained by the death .of the late Vice -
President, Hon. Alex. Morris, which had
occurred since the last annual meeting of
the Company. By comparisons with other
leading companies, he demonstrated to the
satisfaction of all present that the secur-
ity offered to policy holders by the North
An3erican can truly be said to be "Unsur-
passed on this Continent."
In referring to the competition experienced
from the large American companies, he
showed in a very clear manner, taking
the Spires from an official statement pub-
lished in the 'United States. that the per-
centage of surplus to asset, of the largest
companies, was much less than that of many
of the smaller companies. Dwelling on this
point, and also on the low mortality that the
companies doing business in Canada had do
far experienced, and further on the higher
rate of interest obtainable in Canada as
compared with other countries, for safe in.
vestments, he showed very clearly that it
was certainly to the advantage of Canadian
insurers to patronize their own corapanies.
He stated that the Company's solidi invest-
ments in mortgages and debentures. consti-
tuted a relative security for policy holders
never before attained by any Canadian Life
Insurance Company, at the same period of its
The agents expressed great satisfaction
with the reference made to them. by Vice -
President Blaikie. He commended them for
the good work they had been doing and illus-
trated in glowing terms the advantage to
many widows and orphans that had accrued
through Life Insurance, which, however,
would never have reached them but for the
work of the agent.
The motion to adopt the report was sec-
onded by the Hon. Frank 'Smith, who ex-
pressed his opinion that the report was a
splendid one and further, that he Should
say that it would' be almost impossible to
beat this Company's record in any part of
the world.
