The deficit in the revenue of the United States for the first live months of the fiscal year is officially reported at nearly $4,600,000, It may be re• dueed a little during the present month but for the first half a the fiscal year it will not be far train $45,000,000 At this rata, it will amount, for the whole year, to 890,000,000, Secretary Gage, it is said, is hopeful that the revenue will so far increase, after Jan. 1, 1898, as to reduce the deficit by July 1, 1898, to 575,000,000. To affect this the reserve for the six months from Jan. 1st, to July 1st, 1895, must not only equal the expeuses, which will require an increase to it of $15.000,000, over the revenue of the first six mouths, but it must exceed thein by $25,000,090. Thus, to meet the secretary's expectations, the reven ue for the last half of the current fiscal year tt ill have to be $65,0e0,000 more than it has been during the first half.

'testing -et the Penitentiary Contmission- ers-Experimental r:.t•m Crops -Instruc- tions, For the care or Lee-Enneld liilies Aiieetia (`reuera1 Orders., Ottawa, Deo. 3. -,The iinports and ex- ports of the Dominion for . the four months of the fisoal year ending October 81 show a oonsiderable increase in the volume of trade. There was an increase. in the aggregate trade of the country of 810,5€10,41e, This does not inolude any returns from the port of Vancouver, as for some reason or another nolle bane been received at the department singe last June. The exports for the four inonths show au increase of 5, 485, 320, while tho imports are greater by one iviilion and a quarter than they were in le90. The duty also shows an iucrease of about 828,000, but if the 'Vancouver re - torte; were to hand tho increase in duty would ho about $140,000 at the very least. The figures for Ootober show that trade is rapidly going ahead. The ex- ports showed an increase of 83,600,000, the imports of 8770,000 and the duty of $l')6,000 over the same month last year. As already explained, the ` Vancouver. returns will+brio;; the increase in duty up to $14e,000 at tho least. Owing to the Yukin tr.telo the 'Vancouver returns ought to ir,' large. It will be seen that the exports under the head of agricul- tural products have more than doubled during the four months, while there is an increase of over 85,000,000 in anihals and their produce and a very large in- erease in the products of the mine. The fisheries alone show a decrease. Ottawa, Dec, 5, --The penitentiary commissioners riot yesterday and ez €unified.

It appears that Mr. Thomas Burnett, a well-known and enterprising young farmer, who lives about two miles from here, started out to his own bush about 10 a in. to get a load of wood. He did net return to dinner, but as he had many acquaintances in the neighbor hood, where be was very popular, noth- ing was thought of his absence at the time. As the day wore on however, and he did not return, his family be- came ecame uneasy, and his father, Mr. Daniel Burnett, started to look for the absen t one, being joined ''an the way by a number of neighbors: On reaching the bush, the horses were discovered hitch ed by a chain to a fallen tree, which had a turned up stump, and under the stump, which had fallen into the cavity from whence it originally came, was found the body of;young Burnett. Ap' perentle' the unfortunate man had been dead a number of hours. The body, however, showed little mark of injury beyond a few bad bruises. It is supposed that after he had cut the fal- len tree away from the upturned stump he had in some way been dragged iuto the hole. the stump springing back and crushing him to death. The de. ceased was only 34 years of age and leaves a widow and two little children. Medical men say rheumatism is the forerunner of heart disease, Elood's Sarsaparilla, cures rheumatism by its action the blood. Troy, the Napanee murderer, is said to be'a rnental and physicial wreck, and it is doubtful if he will live until. the day set for his execution. Bandel's Memory.
