Iv the Dominion, on an average, 330 chil. dren are born and 17.) persons die every day, so that the number of births annually is about 120,000, while the deaths are about 60,000, The yedrly increase to the popu- lation may, in round numbers, be taken as 61,000. This, of course, is exclusive of Im. migration.

Sap Acciwent.— Mr. Roderick Gillis, tailor, of Lochaber, while felling trees in the woods on the 12th inst., came to his death in @ most untimely manner. His child had followed him to his work, and while the deceased was in the act of felling a large tree, he noticed that his child was standing, as he thought, in the track of the tree. Running hastily to save the child, he was struck by the falling tree, and died a few hours afterwards.—An/ijonish Casket.

Bapty Frozexy.—A man named Taylor re- cently attempted to walk from Memram- cook to Shediac, N. B., but when he reachs ed home his hands were frozen so hard that when he knocked at the door for admit- tance, the sound is said to have resembled blews from a heavy hammer. A portion of the flesh of one hand was found to have been gnawed by the unfortunate man in his efforts to keep it from freezing. Both hands will have te be amputated.

PottricaL.—!t is reported that the people of Belfast will, in case of a vacancy in the representation of that district in the Local Legislatare, request the Hon. J. C. Pope to be acandidate for their suffrages—the request to be coupled with the assurance of Mr. Pope’s triumphant return. Should Mr. Pope not see fit to accede to the request, then Mr. Fletcher,of the Island Aryus, will, it is said, be offered the vacant seat. We do not, however, vouch for the correctness of these reports.

A motion by Mr. Bunster, member for Vancouver,that the House of Commons wine bar be resopened, failed to find five sup- porters, and was accordingly declared lost witkeut a division, This might be regards ed as a most hopeful sign by Prohibition~ ists, were it not a fact that the liquor traffic flourishes beneath the Senate chamber. The Commons enjoy the reputation of be ing ‘‘sound on the temperance question” at the slight expense of having to walka few steps further for their iced~water. Such is life!

The severe weather and heavy snow falls are causing inconvenience and loss to the farmers in the Western counties. The Western Chronicle says that farmers about Canning are obliged to melt snow to obtain water for their stock. In some districts they drive their cattle three mile to water. Fuel isat present a scarce article. We know of two persons living near Canning, who are burning their apple trees. (ne of the men informed us that he had culled all the worst trees in his orchard and con- verted them into firewood, to keep “ the pot boiling.”’.— Hr. Express.

Licuruouses.—There are now 324 Light. houses and eight Lightships along the coasts, rivers,and lakes of the Dominion. distributed as follows: On the shores of

Labrador and Newfoundland, 5; on the Gulf and River St. Lawrence, 69; on the Ottawa River, 16; on the Canadian Lakes, 80; on the coast of Now Brunswick, 46 ; on the shores of Prince }.dward Island, 19 ; a’ong the coasts of Nova Scotia, 93 ; shores of British Columbia, 4.

Firz.—The fire at Portland, N. B., on Friday morning,was one of the most disasy trous that has occurred for many years. The South side of Main Street from the Long Wharf to Steeves’s Corner, was swept by the flames, leaging but two buildings standing on that side of the street. The fire destroyed three buildings on the op- posite side of the street, and two at Port Howe. The total number of persons rens dered homeless is estimated at 300, Up- wards of fiftyetwo families are known to have been turned out upon the street. The total loss is estimated at $80,000. A concert will shortly come off at St, John for the benefit of the sutferers.

Cascumpec.—Our correspondent at Cas- cumpec writes as follows :—Wharf build- ing seems to be the only industry of any consequence that has made way against the cold at this place this winter. Mr. J.F. White is building, and will have completed this spring, an excellent wharf. It is broader than the Queen’s wharf, and will be equally convenient for shipping.

There is a Director-General | of the preparations for the grand event; and this official has just issued a circular | letter to the Governors of States and Terri- | tories calling upon them to take the mats ter early in hand, and urging that all parations be pushed through the }

year. The circular relates part to the unwrought natural resources of tl! land, such as its minerals, soil vegetation, c., and especially t

thorough representation of the actual and | possible products of the soil. The Gens eral urges that unless done by official auth- |

Others have appropriations pending, in- cluding Brazil, whose Emperor has signified his intention to be present at the Exhibi- tion, The German Fatherland has shown great interest, and the commercial agent of a large number of firms has recently obtained 1,200 application forms for the use of his firms.

The dishrag plant is one of the many products of the fertile soil of Texas, and is used by the housewives of that remote region for domestic purposes.

their demonstra. tions are enough to convince anyone that they would if they had the time to stop.

Then, again, why should the entrances to many of our shops and dwelling houses ,be barred by the whole doorstep being taken up by these brutes stretched out insolently in the pretence of sleep? Or why, when we knock at a friend's door, should the first response be an angry growl or bark ? By the way, I went into a crockery shop a year or so since, and scarcely had the door open- ed, when I was surrounded by a perfect pack of curs, barking most viciously. Shall I ever go back to that shop?
