LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.

A Warning. j ea | Sre.—In your pages of last evening, 1 read two paragraphs ; the first stating that one Colonel King has said, (I presume ,you mean sold) a ranche and cattle in |'Texas for four millions of dollars to an English Syndicate, and that this is said to be the largest farm in the world. | I knew not the meaning of the word **Syndicate.”’ I next read that ‘‘Sir Stanley Hill and | Lord Louther (query Lowther) once private Secretary to the late Earl of Beaconsfield, ‘are coming to the Northwest this fall. The | twogentlemen are interestedincattle ranch- \ing. and are likely to invest largely during their coming visit.” Then may Heaven have mercy upon jthem! I am quite impartial between the ‘neighboring Republic or Texas, and the ,Canadian Dominion, which ought to have ‘been named and constituted as a. component ‘part of the British Empire. Whatis to pre , vent theabove named and unhappy and most ‘imprudent speculators fromsharing the fate of the landed proprietors of Prince: Edward Island under the “Land Purchase Act, 1873!” 1 am, Sir, Your obedient servant, Rosert Bruce Srewart. Charlottetown, August 1st 1883.

The Markets.

Since our last report there has been a decided advance in flour. Svuperiors are scarce and in active demand. Montreal quotations for flour and provisions arevas follows:—Superior Extra $5.20 to $5.25, some large lots having been sold at former figure; Extra Superfine $4.90 to $5.00; \Spring Extra $4.80 to $4.90; Superfine ‘$4.15 to $4.25; Canadian Strong Bakers’ $5.10 to $5.25; American do, $6.25 to ‘$6.75 In hog’ products prices are pretty steady with rather quiet business, West- ern Mess $19 to $19.50; Canada Shortcut, nominal; Lard 12} to 11} ¢.; Hams 14 to 14$c. In butter only a local trade is being done, and the surplus make must be accum- ulating fast in farmers’ hands; creamery is quoted at 20c.; Townships 17 to 19c; West- ern 15 tol7c. . Cheese is steady at 9 to 9} cents.

TORONTO MARKETS,

Fiovur anp Mrau.—Superior Extra,$4.75 to $4.80; Extra, $4.65 to $4.70; Strong Baker's, $4.85 to $5.20; Bran, $10.50 to $11.00. The stock of flour in store on the 23rd was 2,325 barrels, and on like date last year 1,800 bbls,

Woot.—There is not much doing in Fleece, the majority of country holders are asking 20 to 21c., while dealers will not pay more than 19 to 20c. for choicest lots, A few lots, mostly small, have been taken at

There is very little offer- The de- mand from the factories for supers and other pulled wools is quiet. Last week’s quotations for all grades may be repeated. Tallow is still dull and no business to re- port, BOSTON MARKETS.

July 26—The demand for eggs, canned goods, and mackerel in barrels is very active, and if the catch here continues good, our fishermen ought to have a pros- perous season. We quote from the last circular: —Reports from the Shore Mackere! Fleet still continue poor, vessels taking but few fish. Those that are coming to hand run about half large, and are eagerly taken by the trade. Last sales were at $12 from pickle.

There is a small lot of mackerel in from P. E. Island. “It has been sold at $10. The scarcity of shore mackerel makes it very difficult for the trade to keep pace with their orders, and the outlook for the sale of Island fish is excellent. Owing to the scarcity of eggs our market has been quite active and we quote good stock quick at 20 to 204. ;

Bookkeeping a Neceasity.

Many fortunes have been lost to shrewd and hard working merchants, simply be- cause they lacked a practical knowledge of book-keeping. To a large number of busi- ness men their ledger, journal and cash book are unintelligible records, for want of a little knowledge of science. To others their business is a moving force with which they are imperfectly acquainted, because they keep no record of mercantile transac- tions. They cannot tell whether they are solvent or insolvent; where the leaks are that are eating up the profits; what the re- turns of the year’s business; in fact the only thing that they do know is that they worked hard, buy and sell, and ima- gine they make gain, whereas if they were familiar with the principles of record keep- ing, or book keeping they would be masters of detail, and, therefore, masters of their business. There is in this day of cheap simple text books, no excuse for any wide- awake man of business not knowing how to keep a thorough record of business tran- sactions, either by single or double entry. There are a few simple and fixed principles

at once,

Professor Jolin Macoun, of Belleville, Ontario. , the well-known Canadian botanist and authority of the North west, is now taking a tour of Cape Breton, accompanied by a professor from the Kingston Military College. They have visited various points and are now at Margaree. Prof. Macoun has discovered in Cape Breton the existence of several plants hitherto unknown in this part of the Dominion.

Professor Proctor reasons thet the moon has grown old six times as fast as the earth, a comparison of the masses and radiating surfaces of the two bodies making it evi- dent that the earth’s internal heat was originally sufficient to last six times as long as the moon’s supply. On the assumption that only 12,000,000 of years have passed since the earth and the moon were at the same stage of planetary life, 60,000,000 of years must elapse before the earth will have reached the stage of life through which the moon is how passing.

After the opening of the Circuit Court at Dorchester on 3lst ult., Mrs Taylor, of Shediac, who had been found guilty of man- slaughter in the killing of Thos. Morrison, was sentenced by Judge Fraser to four years in the Dorchester penitentiary. Before de livering sentence His Honor asked the pri- soner if she had anything to say why sen- tence should not be passed on her. She did not reply. His Honor then referred to the dreadful life she had been leading and hoped that after her sentence had expired she wou!d lead an honorable, faithful and virtuous life. He did not excuse the rowdyism, but such houses as she and many others kept were temptations which very often led young men astray. The Judge said, in conclusion, that the circumstance of her having in her younger days been de- prived of her mother, had a great) deal to do with the shortness of the sentence.
