The attention of the Cobden Club is being oftfivially called to a series of gross libels upon Canada, circulated under its authority in a new pamphiet, ** The British Farmer and his Competitors.” The pam- , ° , let is written by Wiliam Bear, agricul- tural editor of the Standard, in order to show tuat British farmers hive nothing to fear from outside competition and the futil ity of protection. The Cuinadian section abounds with the grossest perversions of Canadian st stistics, designed to prove that Oatario an! the Northwest will never seriously compete with British wheat other markets, and is caleulared to greatly prejudice Canada in the English mind. It is expected that the clab will withdraw the pamphlet.
—-~The Dandas Brnner, edited by Mr. James Somerville, M P., (Grit) refers to the retirement of the Hon. Divid Mills from the editorial chair of the London <Ad- vertiser, and the app vintment of his succes- ser, and says: ** In his hand the Advertiser will regsin much of the prestige which it has of recent years lost.” As editor the Hon. David Mills has been as unsuccessful as he has beea in the sphere,of politics; and as Me. Somerville has shown that he hes found out the editorial incapacity of the Phulosopher of Bothwel!, so the peuple will, ere long show that they have found out his political incapacity.
—Ephemerides remarks that the papers

of Quebee ought to stop displaying our «earth of good English words to express French terms. We have frequent occa- sion, he says, to speak of the heads of Freneh churches and parishes, and every- time we use the form cure, as there is hearily ever an accent onthe ¢, it is a queer
form indeed. Now we have the vid English word ‘‘ curate,” from the same Latia root, and although its meaning has been altered in England, that is no reason why it should be changed in Canada. The head of a church, or the head of a parish,
looking
should be called ** curate,” and not cure, withont accent. ~The Horseman remarks that, taking it
lin all, the trotter will grow just as well
with » good straw bed in alog hut as ina bed of moss in a palace barn, and the common farmer, who, from long
experience, has learned to attend to all the little wants that go to make up the every- day life of the colt, keep both ends grow- ing equally, and bring him up to the full size and form that nature designed, has in the long run a little the advantage over the millionaire, who has only the knowledge of theory, without the knowledge of every-
day practical experience. The common farmer is just beginning to realize the pos-
sibilities for profit iu raising trotting-bred horses. A little time spent during the long winter evenings studying the record- ed facts and history of the trotter, and an intelligent use nade of these facts by keep- ing in lines that have uniformly produced size, style, god color and kind, intelli- gent disposition, united with speed, will just as surely bring profitable returns as planting a field of corn.” The Horseman is no doubt correct.

Wallace's Month'y for October savs that **the victory ot Woodnut, 2.16}, over Guy Wilkes and Stamboul at Sacramento, Cali- fornia, in the Grand Stailion Stake, on September 8th, was a notible performance. When Stamboul beat Arab in short order at Los Anveles, California, taking a record vf 2.15, it was a genuine surprise, and it seemed that he had the great series of stal- lion races on the coast at his mercy. But in the first race Guy Wilkes beat Stamboul and Wooduut, who surprised some peuple by staying ith the champions at all. The tune, however, showed that neither Guy nor Stamboul ‘were what they had been.’ Judge of the surprise on the 8th when, in the second heat, Woodnut beat Guy Wilkes and Stuuboul home in 2.16}, made the next heat dead in 2.174, and beat the cracks in impressive style in the next two heats. Stamboul’s hurried preparation probably did not help him in his later races, and Guy can hardly be ona keen edge. But this race stamps Woodnut as a tast and game horse, and unless he is beaten inthe National Stake he will be undisputed champion of the Pacitic Coast.
Woodnut shines the bright and radiant centre gem ot Nutwood’s crown cluster.” Wovodnut is, if we mistake not, a half
brether of Perceptor, owned by Mr. C. C. Gardiner, of this city. =e e-..—
A Colored Wiggins in Georgia.
A panic among the colored people of Guy- ton, Geurgia, is reported, and negr es are praying there who were never known to be devout before. In tact, the village has a Wiggins in the person of Simmons, a tin- ner. Simmons says that a voice from Heaven has told him to warn the people of Guyton that it is shortly to be visited by an earthquake unless the people stop their evil practices, and that it will be of such a violent nature that few will be left to tell the tale. Simmons has written out the warning in detail, and goes from house to house, reading it to both whites and negroes.
At the Airican Methodist church, during the temporary absence of Parson Wells,
Simmons occupied the pulpit, and took the predicted earthquake as his subject. The meeting lasted until a late hour, and the congregation was worked up to the highest pitch by the fervid oratory of the speaker, who predicted the yreat destruction of life and property, which is to follow in the wake of the earthquake. The negroes, superstitious to the last degree, have taken Sunmon’s predictions as true, and their effect on the ignerant colored people has been such as tu demoralize them. Many who are in service have refused tou perform their duties unt] Simmon’s earthquak s come to convince then. of the error of their ways. Simmons, on his return from church, preached along the streets.

England wants a great deal of China,and any interruptioa of the trade between the two councries would bring ruin to many commercial houses in London; close dozens vf cotton mills inthe north, and bring about a clamour on Parliameut that would prove the downfall of the party responsible for it.
On the other hand, in case of an open rup ure the Chinese Government would be sustained in their efforts te stop the im- portation of English goods by the mass of people whose hate of all foreigners includes with a special detestation, British subjects, those living at the treaty ports being re- garded as representatives of the entire nation.
The Chinese bave played a cautious game as yet, not feeling sutliciently strong to openly dety the intruders who have cvoly walked into and appropriated such territory as suited them at her best harbors, and

The Celestials have been close students of all improvements in the military art of late years, and if they should resolve upon a policy of isolation they can, while exist- ing without the products of other nations, defy all attempts to penetrate into tke in- terior and by steadfast determination force the negotiation of new treaties.

Study of Histery.
Sir,—1 am pleased to find that your cor- respondent **T. H. H.” continues to pub- lish in Tue Examiner his choice literary and historical selections from his serap book. The perusal of those extracts gives great pleasure to intelligent readers of THe Examiner. Their publication will also
help to cultivate a taste for historical study. Anything in that direction is
particularly opportune; as, judging fromthe way that some of the candidates for the scholarships from the City Schools at the last examination acquitted themselves in history, it would appear as if some of the teachers in our City Schools looked upon history as one of the lost arts. At the exami- nation referred to for scholarships in the Prince of WalesCollege, three boys, as can- didates from the city schoo's, presented themselves for examination. Two of those were rejected; and if they cut the same figure insome of theother branches as oneof them did in History, it is not much wonder that bot! failed. In the mere outlines of English Histury, combined with Geography, one of them made fifteen per cent. of the marks allowed. CapMvs.

Celery is an article of food that is coming moe into favor as its medicinal properties come to light. Are you nervous, irritable, or out of sorts? Do not, I pray you, fly to quack mixtures, or destroy the nervous sys- tem by a tov liberal use of the pipe or cigar. ‘Come, let us reason together.” ‘Throw your medicine to the dogs; the loss of a stray canine or two would not be missed in our now over-populated dog life. Are you a smoker ? fLhrow your black poisonous saturated pipe in a tub to soak, and for one month bid gvod-bye to medicine and pipe, and try a judicious, systematic use of Gay’s pure white celery, (unadulturated, as nature provides), and if you are not benefited by the experiment there must be something radically wrong in your composition, A fine retail supply on hand at our stalls, Market House, Churlotte- | town.
