A Prosperous Couple.

Wall, wife, it’s tifty years ago sence you an’ me wuz tied,

An’ we hev clum the hills er lite together side by side.

How we hev prospered, hain’t we, wife? an’ how well off we be—

W’en we wuz spliced we owned one cow, an’ now, gosh, we own three.

I owed five hundred on this farm, five hun- dred dollars then,

But I hev prospered far beyond the gen’l run of men.

A kindly Providence hez shaped the rough course of events,

An’ now J owe four twenty five and thirty. seven odd cents.

"Twas only fifty years ago you only had one dress

To aggravate your beauty and increase your loveliness ;

Now you've got two scrumptious dresses an’ a most tremendous bonnet,

With a monst’ous horticultu’al fair »fionrish- ing upon it.

Three chairs wuz iu our sittin’ room, but fifty years ago,

But we hev prospered wunderf'ly, an’ now there’s tive you know.

We've ganed a lamp, a puddin’ dish, an extra yoke er steers,

A grin’stone an’ a dingle-cart, an’ all in fifty years.

It’s all true w’at our pastor said, the worl moves fast to-day,

An’ with a quick, electric whiz goes spinnin’ on its way ;

It jest goes spinnin’ on its way until ite work is done,

But there’s few spinners, my dear wife, who’ve spun ez we hev spun.

— Yankee Blade. The Argentine Republic.

(The Empire. )

Recent reports concerning the Argentine Republic are deeply interesting. It seems as If the country which caused the fall of the Barings, ani stirred the financial cen- tres of Europe, as by a whirlwind,is hardly yet recovering frum the comatose condition of the past year. And it will take a long time todo so. The terrible shock to its public credit following upon the bankrupt condition of its finances, and the disinclin- ation of emigrants to seek 4 country which is liable to revolutionary outbursts of the nature of that which followed the over- throw of their Government, is likely to militate for a number of years against the progress of a republic which has in times past been a most formidable rival of Can- ada in attracting emigration. lu that respect, indeed, it has beaten the United States proportionately, having received in itsgreat ‘‘hoom” yoar, 1888, 64 emigrants to every thousand of its popula- tion, while the United States received only 12 per thousand. But that time has gone by, as the following table shows .

From May, 1888, to March, 1888, $6,- 000,000 was epent in subsidized passages to immigrants, the bulk of whom were Italians, if we msy judge by the nationality of those who arrived in 1890. OF these, 39,000 were Italian, 17,000 French, 13,000 Spanish and the rest scattering, only 1,100 being English. To the native of Italy, however, the attraction would bs consider- able, as one fourth of the Argentine Re- public is already Italian, and the customs as well as language prevalent amongst the different classes of his countrymen caa eas- ily be found there.

Bat from our standpoint and that ef the unfortunate British investor in Argentine securities, the present position is not a promising one. Financially, it has been going from bad to worse. The paper dol- lar has been daiiy deprecicting, and every- one, excepting the rashest, hesitates to euter into commercial dealiags until the now fluctuating value of the currency is settled. The premium on gold has risen by leaps and bounds from an average of 35 per cent in 1887to 157 percent in 1890, to 300 per cent. in 1891, last October touching 1,352 per cent. At the time of the **bvom” in 1889 it is estimated that forty-two per cent. of the population of Buenos Ayres, which has 500,000 people within its limits, or one-eighth ot the whole country’s population, were engaged almost exclusively in supplying luxuries to the remainder, These luxuries, such as horses, carriages and servants, are now being largely dispensed with, and strict economy practised. But, while this is a good sign, a generally, it is very haed upon the many individuals who are thus deprived of a living, and obliged, in very many cases, to leave the country.

It would have been better for many thousands if they had never gone there. And wages are now down to $25 a month. Where lodging is given it is a mud hut, and food probably ccsts the employer about 25 cents a day, in the limited number of cases in which he provides it. Commerce is con« sequently at a standstill. retrenchmeut is going on in every public and private enter- prise, thousands are out of employmeat, tramps are innumerable, and the financial condition of the “Government and currency deplorable,

The moral is simple. It would have been infinitely better for all concerned if Great Britain had directed its surplus wealth for investment in safe Canadian enterprises, or in the development of colonial resources elses where rather than by pourieg gold into the wild-cat schemes and national loans of a country such as Argentina. And by the fate of this southern county, Canada can take warning, that flashy prosperity is not always the best. Solid, substantial, though slow, progress is safest and best in the long run for nations as for men.

Phenomenon at the Amazon's Moeuth. One of the marvellous occurrences in nature is sometimes witnessed at the mouth of the Amazon river. Towards the ocean a white line or column seems to rise out of the water and increase in s‘zo as it ap- proaches the land. At first ite movement is so slight that it is comparatively noise- less, but as it draws nearer a rumbling sound isheard. This soon develops into a mighty roar, similar to that which is heard at Niagara Falls. It seems to gather momentum with each foct of its progress so that its velocity is something awful to behold. There is nothing strong enough to resist its overwhelming power. Everthing in its path suceumbs to its ravages. The trees on the bank are torn up by their roots and hurled about indiscrim. inately. Huge boulders are hurled hither and thither like so many marbles. Islands are wiped out of existence in a moment and al most as suddenly formed in some new locality. Kverything in its path both on sea and on land yields to complete destruction. The explanation offered for this remarkab'e disturbance is, that when the incoming tide leaves the deep sea and strikes the shoals that lie just beyond the mouth of the Amazon, the resistance they make throws the water up into an immense column, which is carried shore- ward by the movement of the tide. - ne -a—————— News Notes. —As far as personal victories go in the present British campaign, Mr. Gladstone has had rather bad luck. His own ma- jority decreased by 4,000 votes ; that of his son Herbert by 1,000 in Leeds; John Morley very nearly defeated, and almost 3,000 behind the other for Newcastle, who is a Conservative. Worst of all, Chamber- lain, the most disliked of all his opponents, captures the entire Birmingham district by 20,0600 plurality. The Empire remarks: So Mr. John Mc- Queen, who denounced the trade policy of the Government, and the wretched position of the Maritime Provinces especially, in a report which the Ministry very properly ref to publish, has now panel 2,000 arres of land in the Souris valley, and intends to spend the rest of his days in Manitoba. Weare glad to know this, and feel sure that it will not be long before he will still further appreciate the necessity and wisdom of the Conservative policy. He could hardly give a greater proof, however, than in coming to live amongst us.

The production of silver in the world in 1890 was $166,677,233. In the United Srates the silver production in 1850 was $50,000. In 1860 it was $150,000. In 1870 it was $16,000.000. In 1880 it was $38,450,000. In 1890 it was $70,464,000. The production of silver in the whole world for the iast 600 years way $6,435,000. The total production of guld in the world in 1890 was $116,008,900. In the United States the production of gold in 1850 was $50.000,000. in 1860 it was $46,000,000, In 1870 It was $50,000,000. In 1880 it was only $36,000,000. In 1890 it was re- duced to $32,845,000. The total produc- tion of gold in the whole world for the past 500 years was $7,240,00,000.

—Etna’s present eruption is the {79th in its written history. Volcanic activity in var- ious countries during the past year presag- ed some large upheaval of superfluous mat- ter from the bowels of the earth. The physical laws which govern this planet of ours in so far as symptoms of disorder are concerned, do not differ from the constitu- tional government of each individual. Past eruptions have given forewarnings of the same kind. Uappily for Italy, the des- tructive tide of the lava stream now can- not compare with m:ay of the visitations past. In 1669 the fire belched forth from the crater destroyed scores of communities in towns, villages and hamlets, and set the sea on fire. It is clear that since the re-

earth has been in need of an emetic.
