Fr Is 'evident from the way things are shaping in Provincial politics that a general election is not very far off, One after another Ministerial candidate has been nominated, and other signs of an early appeal 'to the people are multiplying. 'Ns question of water -works for Exeter is an important one, that will 'likely be taken up by next year's council- Already several schemes are being quietly agitated. A system of waterworks is conced- ed as one of the necessities to the welfare of a town. Predictions that Commercial Union will sweep the country whenever the electors get an op- portunity to pronounce on it have •been freely made, but the facts are .against them. In the Richelieu election, where it was made an issue, the annexationists and their dupes, received a set -back from •which they will not soon recover. THE Minister of Education has issued a circular of instructions to .teachers and trustees of schools where French has hitherto been taught, to the exclusion of English. The circular is the first result of the report of the,commission, which the Government was forced to appoint when dt discovered that denials of the truth of the charges •made against it would not satisfy the province. SIR JOHN iilAr D N LD like e other statesmen of the day who have ad- vanced to a time of life when most men seek repose in retirement trom active duties, has given another :instance of his activity and readi ness for hard work. He has given up the comparatively quiet position •of President.of the Council to as same the Ministry of Railways, one of the most important and exacting departments ot the Gov- ernment. This does not look as if '±The Old Man is losing his grip." 'THOSE Liberal journals in Cana- da which have espoused the cause of Home Rule in Ireland find themselves just now in a curious position. On the one hand they must argue that by elections in the Dominion afford no index of the strength of the sentiment againstthe Government, while on the other they must contend that the results of similar contests acrnss`the ocean are an evidence that the administration has not the confidence of the country. And the way they have to squirm to get on both sides of this fence is interesting. FARMERS living in the vicinity of a corncob pipe factory are excep tionally fortunate. Although many mil ion of cobs are burned or allow- ed to rot every year, the price for pipe making purposes keeps up. A farmer living near Washingto,,, Mo,, recently sold zoo bushels ot cern for $3o and got $27 for the cobs. This is at the rate of fifty- seven cents a bushel, and if only sufficient Missouri meerschaums were smoked to make the demand larger, farmers would soon be rich. Corn cob pipes are manufactured by a very simple process, and .are in fair demand all over the country. Some were recently shipped to Europe, and more were ordered soon after their arrival. SENATOR. Cullom has been giving some valuable testimony as to the value of the home market. The farms of the United States produce annually to the value of ; 3,700,- 000,000, of which $371,000;000, or 10 per cent., is exported. The balance of go per cent. is more than double the total imports of every kind into G, eat Britain. "If WS could'. take possession of the trade of the word," writes Senator Cullom, "and furnish all the goods imported by every country on the face of the globe, the value of this trade would fall short of our home market by almost a billion of dal Jars What ^ suicidal policy it would be for our farmers to favor any measure which would in the least endanger such a market, for the slight chance which they would have of extending their exports, or buying their supplies a little cheap., el it'i other markets," tl`is,,: c;1 ry for P tc!lerts CaStorta It is always pleasant to have our splendid national advantages re-, oogniaed by outsiders. ° The Minn eapulis Tribune in a recent issue observes:-' Ganada 'is the pos- ses8or of a magnificent territory, rich in varied resources and caps able of infinite deyeiopenlent, Her people are intelligent and progres sive, and in every respect qualified' to march in the van of the sister• hood of American nations," There is a wealth of 'meaning in the reference which is made to the possibilities of &&-elopement. No Canadian who views this country in en intelligent and candid way can fail to fvepi a thrill of patriotic pride and be ~moved' by a strong, sense of confidence in its exalted destiny. A GENTLEMAN, who has just returned from Michigan, states that times generally are hard, and that the out -look for an improve- ment is meagre indeed. They have had no rain there and conse- quently the pasture is entirely burnt. Farmers cannot sell their stock, and the highest price that is realized for first class cattle is $25 .,per dread ; Sheep $2.5o ; hogs 2}c to 3c per lb., live weight. In Ontario cattle readily sell at from $30 to $50 ; sheep $S to $74. ; hogs from 5 to 5i per ib., live weight. Yet in the face ot these facts there is a certain faction in Canada=endeavoring to delude the farmer,into believing that annexa- tion to'the States would be a good thing for him. Facts go farther than :fiction with the Canadian farmers. THE .London Advertiser has been arguing against the tariff en the ground that one of the .leading manufacturers of Guelph has es- tablished a branch of his business in the States, employing four times the number of hands that he is now doing at Guelph. Whereat the Toronto World pertinently asks :—"What would there be (in case of commercial union) to hinder the whole of the business being carried on at the larger tactory iu the :United States ? ' This is the danger. The smaller factory would be at once absorbed by the larger, and disappear from Canada, Just as many more of our own factories now thriving would he swept away. Also note the nuns bee ot branches in Ontario of factories in the U. S. Were we to adopt Commercial Union these would be closed and torn down and our people would be supplied from the main factory in the U. S. Division Courts. The regular sittirgs of the nth , 10th, axed 11th Division Courts of this County were held on Monday, Tuesday and Wed- nesday of last week at Exeter, .Crediton and 'Zurich respectively, His Honor Judge Dole residing, when the following cases were disposed of :- EXETER. NMELY VS ELTZOTT was an an ion On a store account. Defendant not being ready the action was adjourned, defendant to pay costs of the day. Mr. J. Elliot for plaintiff, Mr. Collins for defendant. CAMERON vs RICHARD. This avas a case which created a good deal of interest. The facts appear to be as follows :-In Febuary 1557, Alex. McDonald, formerly of Tuckersmith, asked defendant if he anew any person who wished to lend $200. The defendant who was on friendly terms with the plaintiff, sold plaintiff McDonald wished to borrow $200 and plai tiff saicl she could let him have it. Defendant then took McDonald to plain- tiff when she lent him the money taking his noteefor the same. Plaintiff said on the trial that defendant was to have signed note with McDonald but both Me - Donald and defendant denied this they sweariug that nothing of the kind was ever said or ever intended. The matter stood thus until January 1585 when McDonald became insolvent. Plaintiff hearing of this went and asked Mr. Bishop if her note was any good and upon Mr. Bishop telling her ,it,ayes almost worthless she complained 'to him that defendant had cheated her by taking McDonald there. Mr Bishop told her that more than de• fendant was deeeived in McDonald and told her to go and ask defendant to put his name on not; and if he , consented it would be a proof that when the tools Mc- Donald.to her he knew nothing about his standing. Plaintiff then went to defend- aut and" without telling him what she knew about McDonald's insolvency go defendant to endorse the note by represent- ing to hien that she wanted to raise money on note. Defendant knowing nothing of McDonald's insolvency indorsednote when plaintiff demanded that he' should pay the note. Defendant paid plaintiff $60 on the note upon an agreement as he said that she would take that infull. .But plaintiff then sued him for the balance, U33, and also for X50 the amount of another note, The defendant admitted his lia}'ility on the$50 note, but disputed the other and also claimed a setoff. The plainti{£s claim on the $200 'note was dismissed the defendant's set-off was also dismissed and judgment giyen fot plaintiff for the $50 and such posts as if action had originally been for $50, the judge at the same time expressing his regret that he cottld not make the plaintiff refund the defendant the $60 paid her and also; pay- defendant's costs, Mr. John Elliot acted for plaintiff;t and Mr, Collins for defendant. Homan vs Cavis, This was an inter- pleader action in which Geo: Samwell was claimant of certain nods and Chattels seiz- ed under an execution against defendant. After hearing the evidence of the wituesaes jedgment was entered for claimant, Mr. Dickson for plaintiff, Mr, Collins for °Winetat, Lt,Ary,, rton.N vs Oltia. This ease was again adjourned. CREDrTON LEVAN' V5:RIMER, This orris air action for the price of a fanning trill which the plaintiff claimed to have sold to the de- fondant, The defendant ptoved that the only thing he lii,d'to do with the mill was t to write plaintiff' a letter tan behalf of the actual purchaser sof the mill, and the pur- chaser proved t.ht4t.the price of the mill, was to be applied and note held by per- Chaser against plaintiff, Judgment for defendant with liberty to plaintiff to endeavor to prove payment of note. Mr. T Elliot for plaintiti', and Mr, Collies for defendant. l3xorl*.i'VS VINCENT, This .action was adjoarnplaintiffed. by consent, Mr, Collins for Rust: vs DIsa'Aunnan. • In tills action. plaintiff stied defendant for turning water. on plaintiff lands; The action called out. the evidence of some twenty .witnesses,;, Judgment reserved, Mr, Collins for plaintiff, Mr, Dickson for defendant. i110EwEN & from) vs McLEAri.
