DIRECT TR AD g WITH CANADA.
The Dominion Government and Parlia-
ment are wiser in their generation than
.American politicians, They are push-,
ing out on all. sides to attract trade. The
;United States shuts its porta to foreign
produce in the endeavor to make its peo-
ple rich by living upon each other, and
with about as substantial results, judging
from your collapsed railway companies
and other industrial enterprises, athe
part of the Eastern . States, out off the
potato crop so early in the season that the
secoixtbrood of potato beetles found little
to feed upou ; and millions must have
perished before reaching the image or
perfect state; still, -enough did find food
to carry them through, and they are now
hibernating 1 in safe quarters, ready to
t
come forth nip the tirat green leaf from
this spring' planting. It all had per-
ished with' one, two, or more States,
their place would soon be supplied from
without; therefore, there is no Safety
in presuming that any particular lo-
egion of countty,, is to be

Farmers
ence with
any need o
will do if allowed to have its own way.
Either pois n or kill the beetles in some
other may, or see the crop destroyed ;
ts
and as the is no other alternative, it is
well to pre are the implements of war-
fare before the appearance of the enemy.
No other destructive agent has yet been
discovered !so effective and cheap as Paris
green, and120 years' experience in its use
have ohowin that it can be employed
with perfe t safety upon the vines with-
-1out the lea f danger of injuring the tu-
two Yankee traders who "made a pile" bers for fo d.
by "swapping" knives in the dark. In-
deed, the *al policy of the United
States appears to be modelled upon the
enlightened trading principle verified by
the aforesaid Yankees. Canada acts dif-
ferently. ' Its statesmen believes that the
more trade and interchange they have the
better it must be for their people. They
don't object to take -advantage of their
neighbors' requirements and make money
out of their necessities. This is the free
trade doctrine; but there is jest a linger--
ing touch of -cannibalism in the protec-
tion doctrine so dear to the United States
which insists upon a community eating
each other. Canada has just sent down
s commission to New Zealand and Aus-
tralia'ith the view of opening direct

Hon. John Young, of Montreal, formerly
Chief Commissioner of Public Works,
under Earl Elgin's Administration, has
been commissioned to represent Canada
at the Sydney Exhibition. This gentle-
man addressed a meeting of the Auckland
Chamber of Commerce on his way to
Sydneyj pointing out the advantage of di-
rect trade between New Zealand .and
Canada. To that end. he invited an in-
spection of Canadian exhibits at Sydney,
and hopes that a considerable trade will
spring up between the two countries,thus
passing the commercial cities of the Un-
ited. States. Agricultural machinery and
implements, it is said, may be bought
more cheaply in 'Canada than in the
States; SO, also, other articles of manu-
facture. I don't know What the effect
may be, but he createi a good impression,
and as there are sev ral small Canadian
colonies in this noun ry, he has active
sympathisers.
IMMIGRATION. .
still keepa pouring people into this coun-
try, although business of all kinds is un-
usually dull. It went ahead too fast,
built railroads, and multiplied liabilities,
and. time must be given to consolidate af-
fairs. No doubt it will come out all right
' in the end, but there is just now a tight
squeeze; and many people are looking
about for fresh,locations. As hard times
are pretty general,I think most folks will
face the music and remain where they
are.
