on their farms, may be in forming a conclusion from other | data, it is seldom indeed that he errs‘in| the estimate he forms in this way. If the | crops raised bya single farmer are the) surest proofs vf his prosperity, the crops} raised in the Dominion may in the same way be taken as a measure of the general progress. From the figures published, in the census which refer to the provinces of Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia, it cannot be inferred that any In 1871 the number of acres under crop was 11,820,358; in 1881 the number was 14,- 309,938. The crops raised in the provinces name, given in bushels were as follows:

| There can be no doubt that the agricul-
tural advancement of the four provinces above referred to has been interfered with by the overwhelming attractions of Mani- toba and the Northwest. In late years not only has an immense number of the older provice farmers flocked into the Northwest on account of the vast superior facilities and advantages of farming on the open prairie, but immigration into the older pro- vinces has almost ceased.
MANUFACTURING,
| The manufactures of Canada can scarcely be said te have more than begun in the older provinces, while in Manitoba they are only beginning now. The total amount _of capital invested in industrial enterprises in 1881 was $165,302,723, distributed as follows: Ontario, $80,950,847; Quebec, $59,216,982; Nova Seotia, $10,183,060; New Brunswick, $8,425,282; British Colum- bia, $2,082,835; Prince Edward Island, $2,085,000 ; Manitoba, $1,583,331; and the Northwest Territories, $104,000. In the Dominion the products of these indus- , tries amounted to $306,676,008, of which $3,413,026 were in Manitoba; $3,400,280 in Prince Edward Island; and $2,926,784 in British Columbia. The amount of capital invested in 1881 was more than double that invested in 1871; while the increase in products does not on the ‘surface appear to have been quite com-/
mensurate, being only about 35 per cent.

The Bulgarians are split into factions following various leaders. By far the most ‘powerful of all is the Russian party, con- sisting of the army and clergy—the Church militant and the Church triamphant being fused in one- and the more conservative and backward of the people. Russia is their model, Their chief is General ‘Soboloff. Now they possess absélute power, and deal with matters in the good, old- fashioned, autocratic, Russian way. The Prince is believed to be either the willing ally or the facile tool of his party. So free speech is forbidden, and newspapers are suspended, and schools shut up, and the leaders of the other factions in- prisoned or exiled, or condemned to heavy penalties and fines, all for the general good and glory. Opposition to all foreigners and to foreign influence is their main idea. They would exclude everything that does not come from Russia or bear the stamp of the Russian die. Other foreigners fare no better than the Americans. but the follow- ing cases may serve as examples :—By the arbitrary order of the authorities almost every school opened by Americans in the province has been suppressed—schools which under the Turkish rule never were annoyed during more than twenty years. Houses occupied by Americans have been broken open by gendarmes, under orders from the magistrates. In the city of Sistova two teachers, themselves Bulgarians, but who had studied in America, and were then in American employ, were seized in ‘an American dwelling, and without a war- rant, and thrown into prison. In the city of Loftcha an American geatleman was tbrn from the house by a mob and beaten like a dog in the, street. Meanwhile two Bulgarian priests looked on and laughed and
appla achieyement. Redress for these ngs it is @lmost impossible to obtain. the Prince order punish-
ment of the offenders, his orders would be disobeyed. --<—2>- -— The Queen’s Age Contrasted with Preceding Monarchs of Engiand.

On the 20th of June next her Majesty will have reigned over the United Kingdom for forty-six years, a length of reign which has been exceeded by three of the Kings of England only, viz., Henry IIL. , whose reign extended to fifty-six years; Edward III., whose reign lasted fifty years; and George LIl., whose reign extended to the long period of nearly sixty years.

virthne, It is a prime ingredcent in the facture of a bright happiness that is contagious. That it is not easy to attain, one must in fairness premise; but it isa habit that, in our own interest alone, we should diligently cultivate. We too much resemble the flock of sheep that, turned into a fold, go ranging and bleating around until they have well nigh spoiled by tramp- ling the sweet bite instead of quietly nib- bling in systematic advance from end to end. . There is no knowing how far the wave of that man’s influence will reach who takes up his lot as it is, and makes the best
Lof it.
A good illustration of my meaning is the siory of the old Portsmouth cobbler, who, taking pity on the ragged children *twhom ministers and magistrates, ladies and gentleman,, were leaving to run wild and go to ruin on theirstreets,” who, ‘‘looking for no fame, no recompense from man, single-handed, while earning jhis daily bread by the sweat of his brow, had, ere he died, rescued from ruin and saved to society no fewer than five hundred ‘children,” who when he could succeed no other way, would be seen hunting a ragged urchin down upon the quays, and compelling. him to come to school, *‘not by the power of a policeman,” but cf a hot petate held under his yielding nose. It was this man’s thought that gave Dr, Guthrie the hint he so grandly carried out by the establishment of his ‘ ragged schools.” Only find it out, and you know not what your destiny may be in the way of not only enjoying yourself but of communicating that enjoyment to.others. A small Egyp- tian bean holds with it a power of nutri- ment that braces the musclos of those whose daily food it is to feate of extra- ordinary strength and endurance. And the small Eastern secret of keeping an eye to the happiness of others in all you co to make yourself happy, is a getm of superhuman effect.
