The Department of Agriculture.

Tue annus! report of this important de- partment contains several features of spec- ial intereet. lt sets forth that over thirty thousand farmers have requested that the bulletins issued fram the Central Experi- mental Farm Statiou shall be regularly sentto them. The widespread interest thus evinced is an earnest of cortinued

improvement in farm methods. Our farm-

ers are evidently determined to keep abreast of the times. For this purpose they are in constant touch with the Ex-

perimental Farm and gaining all the infor of the

The investigations made by the chemiet of the Experimental Farms on the compos fodder

plants, also thore of the botanist and ento-

ition and relative nutritive value of

mologist on the sever:!

grasses, and on the various insect pes's which injure the crops of the farmer and fruit grower, have fur- nished important information to the read- ers of ths Experimental Farm literature. E<periments with new varieties of fruit and the

fruit trees, to overcome th

improved methods of

treatment of various diseases which have so long lessened the value of fruit crops, have also attracted much atten- tion.

There has of the dairying industry. It eppears that the exports of butter the amounted to 5,736,696 pounds, valued at $1,056,( 53, and of cheese to 18 270 052 pounds, valued at $11,652,412. This re- markable extension of dairy farming is pyr- ticularly gratifying, says the report, ip view

of the facta, that by means of it the coarse

been a marked development

during year

grains and fodders are consumed largely upon the farms where they are grown. The elements of fertility, which are necessary to the continued growth of good crops, are thus left on the farms ia the form of man- ure. A continuous an! general selling of the crude, bulky and primitive products cf agriculture tends to deplete the soil of the substances which are required to enable it to carry profitable crops. The production of fine food products of concentrated qual- ity and value, such as butter, cheese, pork and beef, affords scope for the exercise of intelligent labor, with profit, and at the same time protects land »gainet exhaustion.

The import of live stock into Canada last year was 4,025 cxrttle, 33.439 sheep, 167 swine and 2.260 horses, The horses were all brought in at Manitoba and North- west points, as were also 3,951 of the cattle. Of the total sheep imported, 29,055 were brought in at. Victoria, B.C. The importation of steck for breeding purposes at Point Levis quarantine showed a slight increase on the year, amounting at Point Levis to 1 bull, 969 sheep and 19 swine, compared with 13 cittle, 933 sheep and 4 swine in 1891. At Point Edward, Oat., there were imported 94 neat cattle and 33 swine, at Halifax 46 cattle, and at St. John 1 bull and 1 bosr.

Notes and Comments.

| if it pass, the beginning of the end of Established Churches in the United King- dom. But it has not yet passed.

-The cola in British Columbia has been ex- ceptioual this year. The temperature has been down to 10 and 14 degrees below zero. The Fraser River is frozen over and good ice ten inches thick has been housed, but the co'd snap has had a paralyzing effect on business

—lJt is stated that Canadian steamships have decided to put up immigrant fares twenty-tive per cent. This decision, if en forced, will be a set-back to the emigration of this year. It is presumed that the steam- ship companies count upon having all their space taken up by tourists to the World’s Fair.

—1893 begins badly for British trade. The totals ot foreign commerce in January are the lowest the epening month has shown fur a number of years back. Com pared with January, 1892, the imports nave fallen £5,350,356, and the exports £1,120,685 —a gross loss in the month of over $32,000,000.

—The Monetary Times repo:ts that the new postal cards are out. They aie much large: than the old ones. The 3-cent letter cards w- troduced are somewhat new. They are gum- med and perforate!, and can be used in place of a letter. For big letters and psackeges the Government has issued 20 and 50-vent stamps these stamps are red, and the design is the same as the vld bill stamps. ‘The poet cffive department is to be congratulated on meeiiag & public want by these issues.

—The sesling arrangement between Great Britain aud the United States, which is doing duty pending the settlement of the sealing question, has teen renewed. Mean- while, Great Britain is paying some dam ages to claimants who suffered from the sudden restriction on their liberty of accion. After the arbitrament Great Britain will, it is presumed, be recouped by the United States,

—The exports for January last were $4 975,175 against $5,643,162 for January, 1892, ‘The imports were €9,160,464 against $7,256,357; and the duty collecteu $1,706,092, agamec $1,392,815. The com- parative figures for the seven months of the tiscal yaar fur 1892 93 are : exports, $79,- 231,852; imports, $69,483,147; duty collected, $12,229776 For 1891 92 th- tizgures ran ; exports, $77,381,211; imports, $63,899,655; duty collected, $10,891,771 ihe increases for the present fiscal year are, therefore, $1,850,671 in exp rte, $5, 583,492 in imports, and $1,338,005 in duty ceilec ed.

—We have to thank the Patriot for pointing out that a man who owns properiy ia every electoral district can now vote in every electoral district. We shou!d not have forgotten the well known fact even fora moment. But neither should it be forgotten that while Liberals everywhere else are striving to obtain manhood suffrage —** one man, one vote,’—Mr. Peters and his followers here, assisted by the Patriot, are striving to give mortgagees the privi- leges of voting im every electoral district Chat is to ssy, a money lender, like Mr. Peters, can so distribute his mortgages that he may vote in fifteen districts and nullify the vote of fifteen opponents! It will be admitted that the Peters Administration bas been well-named ** the Mortgagee Gov- ernment.”

— We have repeatedly expressed the regret of the community that our excellent music- ians cannot always work together in har mony for the good of themselves and ‘he promotion of musical taste. If they could but do this, there would be no difficuity in connection with our Philharmonic Society or our Orchestral Club. It is disappoint ing to learn that there seems to be a pros- pect of a division of the latter organization. it is stated that another similar club is about being formed and that instead of one superior we shall probably have two infer- ior. We sincerely hops that there may te a rapprochement of the parties and that al may yet be well. While it will be difficui’, perhaps impossible, to maintain two or chestral clubs’ in this city, there is no reason why one really good club should not be maintained. Unity, good feeling, good manners, a disposition to be fair and gen- erous, to give and take, only are required.

—The following editorial statement of the leading Demecratic p»per in the Wes: —the Chicago Herald—ou February 18 sets forth the infamy of the preposed Hawaiian annexation. Ic is really a pirati- cal seizure :

** The eituation seems to be about this: A hendful of Americans, who may fairly be plac- +d in the category of filibusters, overthrow a foreign Government, the independence of which is ever) where recognized, and set up a government of their own. The President of the United States then assumes to make e treaty with the filibusters by which the latter assume to give away a country which they heve seized by a display of mijitary force and which is not theirs to give away under any law, divine or haman, aod by which the for- mer assumes to accept the gitt. And he makes haste to accept the gift knowing that repre- sentatives of the government which has been overthrown are on their way to Washington to protest against the high-handed proc.ed- ings.”

na The day on which the keys of the two

splendid buildings to be krown as the Physics and Engineering departments ot McGill University were handed to the Governor General, must have been a proud day for the generous donor, Mr. W. C McDonald, tormerly of this Province and city. Every circumstance contributed to make the occasion remarkable. Sir D oneld Smith, in his capacity of Chancellor of the University, read an address to His Ex cellency, after which Mr. McDonald presented the keys to the viceregal visitor, the same being mde cf teak from the Beaver, the first steamer that sailed round Cape Horn. His Exceliency's reply was brief, but to the point, and the boys yelled themselves hoarse when a!lusion was made to Lady Stanley and to Sir William Daw- son. Mr, James A. McPhail, of this Province, read an address on behaf of the undergraduates, which evoked another short speech from the Governor General. The Montreal Gszette remarks that the splendid gifts which McGill University has received from Mr. McDonald and others ** puts her well in the front of American universities in the facilities she possesses for the training of students in mechanics and physics. It is a safe prediction to make that the usefulness of Quebec's most noted university will be greatly added to by the work carried on in her new departments and that in after years the genileman to whose wise forethought and liberality they owe their existence will be remembered among the worthiest of her benefactors.”

Another Perjury Case.

| — Mr. Gladstoue’s bill to disestablish | EMILY LUBY SENT UP FOR TRIAL IN THE the Church of England in Wales, will be, |

SUPREME COURT.

Tus forencon a young woman named Emily Luby was arraigned before the Stipendiary Magistrate on a charge of per- jury. The perjury is alleged to have been committed on the 24th February, during

|the trial of a charge preferred against a

women named Mary McEwen for selling in'<x'cants on the Lo'd’s Day. Emily Luby was living wih Mrs. McEwen at the time. At the trial referred to, Mrs. McEwen wes convicted and tined $100 and costs, on the evidence of Daniel Carroll, who swore that on the Sunday previous he had bought lianor on Mrs. McEwen’s premises from th» Luby girlandtha: Mrs. McEwen was pre sentat the time. The girl, when pat n the witness stand, swore that she did not sell any liquor to Carroll nor did she receive any money from him for it; but said she gave him some milk to get clear of him. The Magistrate accepted Carroll's evidence and held the girl for perjury. To day, Carroll re firmed his previous evidence, and John Trainor (his father-in- law) testified to seeing him come from Mrs. McKwen’s place with whiskey in a jug, Mrs. McEwen swore that the Luby girl sold the liquor to Carroll on the Sunday in question, and that she gave her (Mrs. McEwe:) the money she got for it. Marshal Cameron testified to advising the girl to tell the truth when she was going up for examination at the trial on the 24th ult. He also ssid that after she was held fur perjury, he remarked to her that if she had done as he told her she would be better . ff, and her rep!y was chat if she had taken his advice she weuld not be where she was Oftiver Campbeil said that the Luby giri told him she had been urged to swear as she did by Mrs. McEwen, who promised her a pair of boo's and a hat forsv doing. Che girl had nothing to say in reply to the usual questions by the Court, aud His Honor sent her up for trial in the Supreme Court. He promised Mrs. McEwen that he would mention her conduct, in the mat- ter of urging the girl w swear falsely, to the Attorney General, for the purpose of ascertaining what there was in the charge.

Ulster Ripe for War. ORANGEMEN WILL REFUSE TO OBEY A HOME RULE PARLIAMENT.

A recent despatch from Belfast, Ireland, says: A ceries of meeting were held on Friday in Belfast to protest against the Home Rule proposals of the government. Among the resolutions to be submitted to the coming great meeting are the fullowing :

Having learned of a proposal to transfer allegiance from the Queen, Lords and Commons of Great Britain and Ireland to a new parliament and executive in the city of Dublin, we hereby resolve that we will re- sist the establishmeat of such parliament and executive government by every means in our power. We further resolve, in the event of the establishment of such separate parliament and executive government, we wili not recognize its governwent nor obey its laws, nor pay the taxes wh’ch they pre- tend to impose.

The placards calling this meeting were worded thus :

Rise, sons of William, rise,

Let us alike defy, Pope, traitor or pretender,

Rise to heaven the patriot cry : Derry boy and no surrender.

An extreme speech was delivered at a meeting of the Belfast Chamber of Com- merce, presided over by the Msyor of Belfast, by a prominent Radical lawyer of Ulster, Mr. J. McMorda, He said :

There will be a civil war witbia six months if the Legislature be in Ireland, for the coun- try would be certain to begin with two gov- ernments, one of which might be in Dublin, Bantry or Meath. while the other would cer- cainly be in Belfast, and which of these gov- ernments would be the survivor it would take a year to determine.

The Orangemen comprise the bone and sinew of the p »pulation here, and from their ranks are drawn most exclusively the artisans of Belfast and the farmers of the neighboring country, who are in the fullest sympstby with the move- ment. In all the Protestant denominations there are already indications of a great in- crease of membership, in view of the ap. proaching crisis. The feeling isSeven more intense than that which preceded the dreadful riots of 1886, when 200 pe ple were killed outright and many more w jur- ed.

In the rural districts the population is more deeply aroused than in 1886. »s they ‘hink that there is greater danger of the Hume Rule bill passing now than there was then On every hand one hears serious reference to the seige of Derry and the battles of Aghrim and the Boyne. The Mvyor of Belfast has called a pubiic meeting of citizens to be held on Tuesday to protest against the Home Rule vill.

The financial agitation in Ireland on account of the dread among security holders of the effect of Home Rule is increasing. Bank of Ireland stock to-day shows an additional fall of £5 and Guioness Compsny stock of £10, while the stock of the Great Northern Rail- way of Ireland sbows a deciine of £2 a share,

—In a letter to « friend in this city, Mr. Jay J Watson, of New York city, atrongly condemns the Herald’s recent uncalled for attack ou Prince Edward Islanders. He says that, asarule, the Herald’s articles are taken as meaning the opposite of that which is stated therein; and like Rory O’More’s dream, they must be worked by **the rule of contrary.” Mr, Watson, it may be remarked, was a visitor to the Island some years ago, and is well and favorably known to many of the older residents. He has a very high opinion of the I.land and its people.

Ia their butter exports to England the following countries show a decline: Denmark, Sweden, Holland and the United States, while Canada, France and Germany show as steady a tendency toward an increase. Ot butter, bacen, hams, eggs and poultry, the imports of England were valued, for the year, in round numbers at £40,000,000 sterling.

DAVIES AND OTHER PURISTS OPPOSE IT.

Orrawa, March 2

The motion to put binder twine on the free list was rejected last night by a vote of 78 te 49

Dr. Weldon, seconded by Mr. McLeod, of St. John, moved for the production of all correspondence, etc, in the Govern- ment’s possession touching the disallowance of Chapter 1 ot the Nova Scotia acts of last year, relating to mines and minerals, in- cluding any petition of David McKeen, M. P., and others in respect to said act.

Mr. McMullen made a furious attack on the Civil Service superannuation, as involv- ing an enormous tax oa the country, but he did not press a resolution to tha effect to a vote.

Mr. Langelier, in moving that it is to the interest ot the great bulk of consumers to ad- mit free of duty all foreign sugars, white, raw or __ refined, contended that the sugar duty was not bringing in much revenue, and that it transferred millions of the people’s money to the refiners.

Mr. Kenny, of Halifax, exposed thea incorrectness of Mr. Langelier’s figures and showed that the average price of refined sugar in Canada last year was lowe, thau in the United States. So far from the refiners having made three million dollara, he instanced the case of the Hel - fax Sugsr Refinery, in which he was interes'ed, whose profits Jast year did not amount to more than one per cent. vn the amount of the capital invested. Mr. Kenny pvinted cut that owing to the great cheapness of the article last year, the con- sumption of sugar had vestly increased,

Sir Richard Cartwright was in a bad humor ard made an attack on class m nop- olists among whom he alleged were Mesars. Kenny and Stairs, whom the Guovern- ment permitted to enrich themselves by stealing from the public pocket.

The matter went over for the time being.

After recess, the Premier laid on the table the order-in-council regarding the Manitob’ School Act.

The House went into committee on Dr. Weldon’s bill to disfranchise electors who take bribes. The measure was oppused by Dr. Sproule in a neat speech.

Mr. Davies said that the bill struck a blow at the less guilty party, and let the debauchees of a constituency go scott free. He wanted to know how far the Govern- ment epproved of the bill.

The Premier said that, personally, he thought the principle of the bill a sound one. He pcinted out that Mr. Davies’ ob- jections, if they mean anything, pcinted to the necessity of extending the scope of the bill and did not form an objection to it.

Mr. Langelier thought that the bill should bs amended so as to reach the men who offer bribes, as well ss a man who ac- cepted a bribe,

Mr. Mul ck was heartily applauded as he endorsed the principle of the measure, and he said he wouki voce for it, ‘ihe committee, however, refused further consideration of the bill by a vote of 33 to 30.

r. Pope’s resolution to put corn on the — was voted down, without debate, 90 to >

The refusal of the House in committee to proceed with the consideration of Dr, Weld- on's bill to disfranchise electors who have taken bribes, was due to a combine organized by a number of French members in the smok- ing room that took friends of the measure by sarp ise.

Dr. Weldon will move to replace his bill on the order p»per. Among those whe oppose the billis Mr. Jeannette, who, in his speech, effi med that bribery was a necessary accom.

animeut of ec ions, and that he had himself bought votes and would do so agz,in, _ Hen, Mr. Foster's speech on Tuesday night is proncuneed by all Conservatives to have been cne cf his most masterly «forts.
