.A 'Canadian Romance.
The Lindsay Post tells the follow
ing tale of a Cauadian who has re
turned to hie wife and family afte
he ware supposed to be dead for se
veral yettie :—In the year 1859, Mi
Thos. Fox, then a resident of Bats
roanville, concluded- that a chane
of loallity might benefit his worldly
prospects, and place him in a posi-
tion in which he ,could better the
conciitieh. of his youthful family. --
After all the delit)eration such an
important matter demanded, he fix-
ed upon British Columbia as the field
wherein well-dineeteci efforts would
be best remunerated, and where, in
the shortest space of time, he could
realize his hopes of future wealth and
position. After bidding adieu to his
wife and children, Mr. Fox at once
directed his steps tothe .'sunny shores
of the Pacific,' but his ease was -
to that of thousands, 'distance
lentenchantmentto the view On
a closer inspection he found that
there also difficulties and toils beset
the avenues to preferment; that even
in the El Dorado of the Western
Continent there was 110 royal road
to riches. For a -time his family in
Canada heard at regular intervals
from the wanderer ; but after the
lapse of seven or eight years letters
became less frequent and then ceased
altogether; after a time came the
tidings- that he waa dead, crushing
the last hopes the wife had of ever
seeing the lover of her youth, or ehe
husband of her mature years. This
was in the spriagef '69. The fa.miiY
seem after removed to Lindsay, where
they have since resided. T -Wo of the
sons, steady hard-working lads, are
printers in the office of the Post,
while another had charge of the te-
legraph office at Fenelon Falis, and
latterly at Sutton. Sober and indus-
trious the boys have been a blessing
to their bereaved mother, no doubt
materially lessening her troubles, and
in some measure, at Jeast, filling up
-the void caused by the supposed un-
timely death of her husband. Such
was the position ef the family last
Monday week when they received a
telegram intimating that Mr. Fox
was on. his way home, and would
reach Lindsay 013 the following morn-
ing morning. We may fancybut
cannot atterhpt to portray; the joy-
ful feelings which pervaded the heart
of the family on the receipt of such
unlooked-fur intelligence. On Tues -
clay morning the long absent one did
arrive by the 9 o'clock train, and was
gladly and lovingly welegmed as one
floret the dead;* and we can, readily
imagine that he has soleninly pro-
mised never more to roam, but to
seek within the bouads of this New
Donainion for that return which is -
ever the result of well -directed labor
and effort. Mr. Fox, it. appears,
• wrote at different times, but supposes
that his letterwere miscarried and
so never reached Canada.. Let us
hope that \after his long absence, toil
.and trouble, he has achieved, to some
extent at ' least, the object of his
search; and that a comfortable com-
petency, wrung from the gold gullies
of Frazer River, Cariboo and Will-
iam's Greek, may be the portion', of
the subject of this brief sketch. Whose
adventures have nearly furnished
the theme fora Canadian. Tennyson's
'Enoch Arden?'
.Pork as Food.
te*
Is the prohibition of pork to the
Jews, as unclean food,. founded on
the intrinsic unhealthfulness of the
food itself 7 An article in the Physi-
ologist, reerinted by the Jewish
Messeager,expresses the opinion that
it is, and gives a most disgusting pia
tare of thtediseased constitution of
the hog. It says that "in, Vermont,
New Hanwshire, Maine, and other
New England States, where the in-
habitants send their beef cattle to
Boston market, and live principally
on pork as meat, the Year round,
myriadb of them are afflicted with
aero ula, salt -rheum, tetter, ring-
wo, ru, " humors in the blood," -co-iisumption, etc. In the Far West pork
is the plincipt,1 meat consumed by
the farmers and labouring classes;
ham for breakfast, roast pig for din-
ner, and sausage for supper, andhoe
all the time !' And what is the effee7;

of their wretehed wives and children*,

While the Western farmer works in.
his fields in the open air,, he is com-
paratively exempt from its baneful
influence, and it is chiefly upon the
health of his wife and children that
its terrible effects may be seen. The
late Dr. Brainard,. of Chicago,, told
the author, a few years since, titat it
was estimated, by competent medical
authority, that neatly one-fourth part
of the, entire population of the State
were afflicted with scrofulous sore
eyes, with enlargement of the gland
at the edges of the -Iids, etc. This,
form of chronic opthalmia is vely
commort throughout the West.'!'
