It 1892, 117 GI, A ArD'S IMMIGRATION, Ormt Eritaitnisi beitise Joked 40 largely for the eitPnly O lininiva*n o neeessarYto the eettletnent • of otir :teant lands, it meat not be Supposed that the poptilation., of the ;Nether CoantrY is being xedueedin proportion o the numbers who seek new homes ie gShe western world, or that the probiem •of employment for the =saes is pro. eportionately simplified by the process •of depopulation which is gradually go- ou in Great &hails. The uuhind- ,esred influx of foreign population into the 'United Kingdom has all along con- stituted a graye factor in the (Tone- esnie problem, to such an extent that .any diminution of the inflow has been hailed with signs of great approval. The GlosgoW Mail, commenting upon stile returns of immigration for the geenth of July says: , "Happily, haw • .ever, there are signs of a falling off iu the influx Of foreign labor. The latest .esf. the ,Board of Tradisie customary re :turns respecting alien immigration, .brings the information on tho snbject 'up to the end of July last. It shows :the number of aliees who arrived from ethe continent at ports in the United Kingdom during the seven months ended Bist July, and also the number .:of those who arrived during the month sof July alone, comparing then.' with the numbers for the. corresponding per- lods of last year. In the seven months 4of this year the total number of fore- igners who arrived at our ports was :.:6,395. The number of those who ar- rived in the corresponding seven months of last year was 83,085, so that this year there has been an increase of mo less than 13,310.e But nearly the ,grhole of the excess has represented :emigration to America. Of the total sof. 96,395, there was 75,346 who were son their way to America, being an in- crease of 13,028, the number for the . similar period last year having been ii32,818. This is a matter which does not concern this country. The number lief foreigners not stated to be on their way to America who arrived at our ports during- the seven months ended 31st July was 21,049; and the number ler the corresponding months of 1891 -Teas 20,767, this year's increase being -only 282. In fact, the rate is almost • :stationary. If we take the return for buv alone, the figures are more en .eouraging. The total number of ar rivals in July last was 13,013, a de screase of 954 as compared with the •etigures for Jnly, 1891, when the num- . :her was 13,967. Of the, 13,013 there • were 2,245 on their way to America .and in the corresponding month of 1891 there were 8,997, so that last month there was an thereese of 248. The number not state.d to be on their way to America who arrived last month was 3,768, or 1,202 less than in , July, 1891, the number that month • haying been 4970. This reduction of 24 per cent., or nearly one-fourth, in the number of foreigners who are not 'ticketed' for America, and many of esehom may be supposed to haye 'come .tis stay' is a yery great improvement. Let us hope that the improvement will continue, for its continuance would probably diminish the difficulties, as swell as the dimensions, of the. foreign .immigration problem. _RESULTS TO DATE. advantage to the extent of 20 cents a to over his viral in Dakota. On the other hand, Chicago is given an ad- vantage to the extent Q2 20 eents a ton over Duluth and Minneapolis, • The Canadian vessel has a like advantage o yer its rival which sails under the flag of the United States, Last year United States Yossels carried 90,000 coils of grain throngh the Welland canal to Kingston, on which the rebate of toll 'Mk's 0101Yed. How much of that was taken from Lake Superior ports we cannot tell. What is certain is that under the new arrangement a United States vessel CannOt compete with a Canadian vessel for this trade The Canadian vessel may take grain at Duluth for Kingston in transit for Europe, She will pay exactly 2 cents per ton net, while the Ueited States vessel will pay 22 cents per ton net. The Canadian government will not re- f lied tolls paid at Sault by United. States vessels. Thus, up to date, Presi dent Harrison has placed his own countrymen in Dakota, Minnesota, and part of Wisconsin, at a distinct disad vantage as compared with Manitoba Farmers, andhe has placed United Sates vessels trading to Lake Super- ior at a distinct disadvantage as com- pared with Canadian vessels, Keep right on, Mr, Harrison, Canada rather likes the blows you are aiming at her. 'One Ching which President Harrison appears not to have taken fully into • ectount is the fact that in putting .en the Sault canal he discriminat etd. against Minnesota and Dakota in ....favor of Illinois, Iowa end the middle 'Northwestern States. That is, he im -poses a burden upon the states which :find their outlet through Lake Super lior for the benefit of the states which •find their outlet through Lake Mich •Igen. All freight carriecl from any Lake Superior port for any Canadian port, whether carried in Canadian or l'nited States vessels, will be charged 011 at St. Mary's canal, • All freight ;van Lake Michigan ports, whether •,:arried in Canadian or United States reesels, will •escape that toll. Thus the lerritory served by Lake Superior will 'be compelled to pay this toll or 1.1 will es compelled, in order to ayoid the toll, •to send its produce through the Erie . ansl, Whicli is fully half a coat dear - Without looking beyend the pre. omit situation, President Harrison has bit his own countrymen much mme wrerely than he has bit Canadians. Weed, the Canadian farmer will not Auffer at all, as the Sault tolls will be ovoid out of the Dominion treasury Am.d. thc Manitoba farmer will have an TORPEDO BOATS IN BATTLE A correspondent of the Louder): Globe gives an interesting description of the effect of the :orpedo boats as wit nessed by him during the recent Meo. oeuvers on the coast of Ireland. He s ays: "In the first place it is wonder- ful that the boats managed to get near us at all, as the moon was shin- ing. so brightly that their thin black hulls could actually be seen without the aid of glasses, at a distance of about a mile. Our fleet was also pro - tee ted by the cruisers and catchers which acted as outlying scouts, but even they did not prevent the boats getting right up to the ships. One torpedo-boat in particulaernwhose nu- mber I could not discern, made a Most spirited attack on the Triumph, gett- ing close up alongside her in a wonder fully short time and. discharging two of her Whitehead. torpedoes, If they struck her, and I believe one of them did, she should be out of action,though I suppose there would be tbe inevit- able hard swearing on both sides re- garding the time the' boat was under fire fire before she discharged her torpedo. This attack though was Only one out of the many, and I shall probably hear more details concerning them in the course of a few days, when the various claims have been forwarded, and decided by the umpires. The spec tache afforded by this night battle bet- ween the two fleets, was most magni ficent and awe inspiring. At times the brilliant beams of electric light, c ombined with the continual flash and flare from the heayeel guns, almost seemed to turn night into day-, while the deafening roar and rattle of the a ring was enengh, even in the peace t ime, to try the nerves of any man. T he greatest effect that torpedo -boats seem to have on their enemy is the moral impr ession which their dreaded approach seems to haye on the. ships' crews, tend indeed it is not to be won- dered at. There is such an apparent el ement of suddenness and treachery in the torpedo -boat's mods of attack, that their enemy always feels, as it were, like a man blindfolded, never know- ing where the blow which is both s wift and terrible is coming The further description of tke engage- ment illustrates the impossibility, al- most, of hitting the torpedo boats, so difficult a target did they afford. "I may mention," says the correspondent, "that one of our ships fired persistently for some time at two of our own tor-. pedo7 Catchers, and With such effect, that they must certainly- have been sunk in war times"' COLUMBIAN EXPOSITION OF 180,9. 'Ile idea cannot be to llrinly lin- pressed on Canadian people that the forthcoming World's Exposition at Chicago in 1803 will afford an admir- able opportunity for advertising this country and Showing to the world its valuable resources. Through the en- ergy of Pref. Saunders and the other gentlemen who aro acting as Commis. sioners for the Dominion or for the se- veral Provinces, ample accommodation has been secured for a gran el display of Canadian products; and it will be the fault Of our own people if the exhibit ie natural and indUstrial r08011reeS does not reflect great credit on the Dominion, Already shipments' have gone to Chicago of our timber resour- coS, which are esteemod of so much value by our neighbors over the lino; and no doubt the varied display 91 Our 550,1)05141 and ether natural reeouree$i whieh in SQ many respects excell those of the United States, will be such as to command, universal edmiration, In the artistic department, we can seareo- ly to compete eucceesfully with an older and more, populated. conntry such as the neighboring Republic; yet there ought to be a creditable display eVen in art, such, as in oil paintings, water colors,' &e., while efforts are be- ing made for exhibit ii acIhes' work-whtch comprises a variety of useful and ornamental articles for which Canada's fair ones are noted; We consider that, if justice be doue . in sending good samples of what this country is capable of producing, the exhibit in fish, timber, grain, dairy produce, coal, nickel, asbestos, and the most valuable metals,- be such that Canada svill have no reason to be ashamed of her display. The proxim ity of this country to the site of the Columbian Fair, and the facilities of- fered by our Government for free tran- sit to Chicago and return, will leaye our people altogether without excuse for making a full and mcditable dis. play. There are thousands of Caned - mus living in Chicago, and this with other reasous will tend to draw a large concourse of visitors from all parts of the Dominion, who will naturally a- vail themselves of the cheap fares and thus be afforded a splendid opportunity of sight seeing and of inspecting the varied products of a civilized world, - whether from the loom or the factory, the pencil or ;he needle, the forest or the farm, the mine or the deep sea.

About a year later, Scrofula, in the form of White Swellings, appeared on various parts of my body, and for eleven years I was an invalid, being con- fined to tow bed six years. In that time ten or eleven of these sores appeared and broke, causing me great pain and suffering. • Several times pieces of bone worked out of the soros.
