Fast jt» a Pead Dog’s Jaws.—A peculiar accident happened at Mor­ peth 00 Monday. Some one. admin­ istered a dose of poison to a xlog be­ longing to M<*. Macartney, tailor. Macartney's daughter, Mrs. Agar, picked the dog up while it was. in. convulsions and attempted to give it an emetic, with the result that the animal bit her thumb clear tlirough; and dying immediately.her thumb re­ mained fast in the dend dog's jaws. An iron poker had to be used tospry the jaws apart .before the thumb, could he released.

The proposition will.be left to the new administrat­ ion.' ■ ' • - , • > ■..->■ During a debate in the American^_ Sv-Uate,' Morgan, of Alabama, said: He had been in the Democratic par­ ty-before Jthe.senator,from Kentuec ky (Mr. Beck) enjoyed the privileges of citizenship in this country. He had been a true and .faithful Demo­ crat and it did hpt'rest witli tlie sori-" ' at,or from, Kentucky-to impeach his Democracy- Mr. Be lt ■ i-claimed any allusion to Mr. Morgan' or any .other senator, . “He is not quite so imporiaiit,” Mr. Bwk said, ’‘in my estimation in re>*aril to tlu-se questi ous as he may think I think hp is. I d iljnot happen to be born in tl.i country; hut I was not consulted ab­ out my birth.' I Ua've been a citiz.-n of tlie United States sinco 1838 That is a good .while ago. • The sen­ ator may have been a very inipor cant man at that d«te, but I doulu it. I have endeavored to perfo.rju my duty aa a private citizen a.nii public officer\to the best of tny abil. ity sincethat time, ahd if the senator thinks it adtta anythpig to his digit ity or diminishes fpom myo Rtandieg.. to make the sUggeatiori that I wa- borti in Scotland instead of the Un­ ited States he-is welcome to all the- honor he tbinkiLlieJi asm ad e-b v-tb a k’ fling at the place of-my nativity... during the l del few'yaars, which had undoubtedly taken place. Another proof of the growth of industries was found jn the fact Otat hnnorta at coal from 1879 to 1884 were 7,08^98$ tons, while tin ring the porio 1 from 1874 to 1879 there were only 4,230,* <•00 tons. The Canadian output of coni was 650,000 tons, while from 1879 to 1884 it waa 8,550,060 tor*. Hon. gentleman opposite might say, “Ypu have taxed the people of Cana* ada fifty cent? a ton on thia incrase,’r He admitted that he Would not tin--• dertake to deny it, although he be­ lieved it was qfiite- open to him- to argue that the producer 'paid, a por- tion of the duty. But admitting, for the sake of argument, that'the poo- i pie of Canada paid'the duty, it was on)y jequivalea.t of the duty taken, oft tea and coffee, and if the duty Were taken oft coal it would have to be placed upon tea and coffee. . Hon. gentleman opposite used to say that the CFOverttment-was pampering fhe sugar refiners. Now they would probkbly contend that sugar refiners were being ruined. To ahow that an impetus has been, given to the cotton trade, lie said that the imports for raw cottons for five years from 1874 to 1879. were 41,- 847,880 pounds, while from 1875 to 1884 imports were 94,933,219 pounds; and the value had increased from $3,526,000 to 810,531|OQO. He thought the time was not far distant when nil factories already built would b'e appropiately employed without increasing the cost of goods, to, the consumer.. He then refer red-to duty of 35 percent, on . AGHlCULTIJRAL IMPLEMENTS. and said he was in a position to show that®their price this year-in the ■Northwest had been as, low as they, were in Dakota, Mr. Hrtsson —Lower. . Sir Leonard Tilley quoted ihe prices of various farming implements in^jyinnipeg, and compared them with the pric.es which obtained • at various points across the lines in sup port of the contention that the pol­ icy upheld by the Government had reduced the price to the consumer in every case, except coal, winch, paid a dutyof fifty and sixty cents a ton, and the coal industry had given Sir Leonard Tilley, in moving the House in 'fifommittae to consider Supply to be granted to Her Majesty, said he proposed tp review briefly the results of the National Policy accepted by Parliament in 1870. Aft Departmental returns, including trade returns and public accounts, had been, since 187 J, in possession of Parliament, as alsp reportr, Ac., for five years previous, containing the results of his preQecOisprfy Jftuli he trusted* by making a comparison of these, to be able to satisfy sup. porters of the Government as to the: condition of the affairs oft be coun­ try, as well as the condition of the N. P., and perhaps also, to have the assent of honorable gentlemen oppo­ site. It was true that.the expendi- lure haft increased, from 34 millions to 30 or 31 millions,' but Wtur that' sufficient evidence of extravagance of the Government^'. He would take the expenditure of 187.7-’78, which Was remarkable as the-lowest expen­ diture of any .year of- the-tate Adihin-i istration, and compare it with last, yearj 188&’4, which,they would en deavor to show was justifiable, arid had NOT ADDED ONE bOllffi'tC THE TAX* ; " ATJOBT of the country. T|be excess of ex­ penditure in 1883-'84 w»« something like seven and. a Italf millions over that of .1877• '78. The expenditure on railways and canals in 1883-’84 was $1,035,443 more titan in 1877-’78, but had that cost-the country anything? The receipts ffom railways, etc,; from '1874 to 1878 were $8,616,298, and the expenditure $14,688,318, or a deficit .of $3,072,020, while the -receipts for .,1879 to 1884 were .$13,718,389, and -expenditure, $14,776,470, or a deficit of. $758,081, and increased facilities find business transactions must be borne in mind. In the Post Office Department the expenditure in 1884 was-$588,026 more than in J878 79. But did that add so much to the tax­ ation of- the country ? ■ But the ex­ penditure for- the five .years from ,i374 to 1879 in the Post Office-De­ partment averaged $521,067 over the receipts, while from 1879 to 1884 the average yearly excess of expenditure over receipts was $463,198.

The expenditure on Dominion lands in 1877*78 was $1.628, and In. 1883*84,, $100,898.^an- increase of $79,270; but this, he said, would be-largely offset by the opening op of a. large portion of the.-North­ west and settlement of the. people there/ The expenditure ori public­ works anil buildings in 1877 78 was $9.98,594, and in 1883-84, $2,1/08,851,. dr arj increase of $1,910,256, or nearly treble the ex pendit ure. He admit ted that there was not a direct .return - foLthis expenditure; but wlien tlie Government of the country-' had a surplus sufficient to^iriduce Parlia* ment to. vote sums of money for the construction of public buijdirigs, im*^ provement of harbors, Ate., it was so .much' .added to the asspts bf the" country.

Had there been nothing to-bo paid to the.Provinces the'taxation in Canada would hRve been $3.03 per heail.. In all these comparisons the sinking fund, was included. This . item wasagainst the .United- Statea/1 but evtm exclusive of the sinking, ftlhd, the-Canadian taxation was 54.- 84. and in the United States, includ­ ing State taxation, $5.27.' The esti*. mated necessary revenue'of fche Un-1 Rod States for 1885 6 was '$252, 340,* ~000, Which, Wftli the State taxation; Would give $.5.7-8, as against $4.75 i» Canada, estimating . Canada's popul-. atioh. at 4,800,000. He ■ quoted ^rom a return laid before the American Congress to show that in no country in the world was taxation bo low as in Canada, except in Sweden, thfyNeth- • erlands, Japan, British India, and a few other countries in which the -val­ ue of a day’s taboryvas Tar less than in Canada.
