Notes and Conimients.

—A special to the Montreal Star from London, England, says : The imports from Canada ahowed the great expinsion last month of £91, 826, or 4.06 per cent. com- pired with last year. Wheat imports ex- panded £2,100, cheese £1,100, fish, cured and salted, £93,000. The imports for the four years increased £165,000 or 75 per cent., wood imports increased £41,000 in four months. The exports to Canad: in- creased four per cent. for the four mobths.

~A number of English horse dealers with headquarters in Montreal are «ngag- ed buying up Canadian horses for tse in hansoms in London, Eng. They have sus- ceeded in buying up, princpally in Oatario, several hundred horses for this purp se. Shipments will be made from Mon real every three weeks. A few days ago a lot of these horses were sold in London and realized fiom sixty to seventy guineas each, which price is considered very satis- factory.

—It is well known that several of cur noteble as wellas notorious human, social, and civic customs find their pre-historic pro otyp-s in the insect kingdom. The woparch cal institution sees its singular prophecy in the domestic economy of the> bees. War and slavery have always been carried on systematically and effectual'y by ants, and, according to Huber and other authorities, agriculoure, gardening, and an industry very like dairy farmiog have been time-honored customs among the same wise and thrifty insect tribe, whose claims to thoughtful consideration were so long voiced

by Solomon cf proverbial fame. hevenot mentions ‘‘Sul»mon’s ant” as among the ‘‘beasts which shall enter paradise.” ludeed,

the human saint as well as sluggard may “‘g» to the ant” for many suggestive commest- aries. That insects have also their merry-

“At a time when Canada is askiog the mother country to coasider the question of a preferential tariff for Canadian exports, it may be of interest to know that one export from the Dominion to England is incressing and thriving. tor whichin the United States has been closed

30 per cent. on the declared value. It now pays better to export the horsee to England, where, although the cost of collecting the horses and of bringing them over is consider- able, the very good prices paid for them makes it fairly worth the while of the im- porter. The horses which pay the importer best are heavy draught horses, but those im- ported by Mr. R. W. Ffolkes, of Acton, and which are for the main part hacks and carriage horses, realize very good prices. At the last sale, which was the sixth, the prices

l averaged £65, and the highest price realized

was 169 guineas. Among the horses sold by Mr. Ffolkes yesterday were: Florence, a biy mare, sold for 75 guineas; Emperor, a black gelding sixteen hands high, for 80 guineas; Tom and Jerry, brown geldings, a pair of wellematched carriage horses, for 140 guineas; and Boston, bay gelding, for 1'0 guinsas. The horses are farm bred, and are bred genera'ly from English sires.

The Overhead Check-rein.

The testimony of persons accustomed to driving horses, and of experts in the habits and anatomy of horses goes to show that the use of the check-rein is very much a matter of fashion, and not based on any valid reasons; that it is cruel to the horse, and of little or no advantage to the driver of a properly trained horse. A horse need- ing an overhead rein is not a desirable one to own The overhead check ne- cesaitates a forced and unnatural action of a horse’s head and neck, which irritates and fatigues him, and also prevents his ex- erting his full strength in pulling any con- siderable weight. It is in the last way alone that it can answer the purpose sometimes ascribed to it of preveventing a horse from running »way; but even then it dees not replace a powerful bit, which bas the ad- vantage over it that the horse need not in- cur the uee of it unless he resists, whereas the force of the overhead check is con- tinually operative, whether the animal is unruly or not, and as much when he is standing still, as when he is in motion. If used long, this unmerited restriction will destroy a horse’s temper and break his spirit, besides seriously affecting the muscles of the neck and the action of the organs of breathing. All the societies fur the preven- tion of cruelty to animals agree in protesting against the overhead check. In England it is not used, we believe, at all; and the so- cieties there oppose even the old check-reio, which they cali the bearing rein. They have obtained against the use of the latter the names and testimony of over 550 of the veterinary surgeons of England as being un- necessary, fatiguing to the horse, ungrsceful in appearance, productive of hard mouth, conducive to stumbling, giddiness and apoplexy, loss of muscular power, psin and distress io breathing, distortion of the upper pact of the windpipe, wheezing and roaring, and a general fretting of the temper of horses, thereby shortening their lives. If these are the objections to the old-fashioned check=rein, how much more must they apply to ths new- fashioned overhead check. he veterinary surgeons of this poery are unanimou, 8 far as we know, in condemning the overhesd check.—Appeal of Washington Humane society. -

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.

The Road-Waking Machine S1r,—-lo the last issue of the Patriot | notice a communication from Mr. Super-' visor Dickieson, of Lut 65, recounting the | great things which he did with the govern- | ment’s new road-making machine. He} states that the saving in money and the! quality of the work done is sufficient to satisfy all parties that the money invested | by the Government in this machine was in) the interest of the country. | have no; doubt but that this machine could be used with success, and perhaps economy, on sume of the thoroughfares of the country; but I cannot see the point that Mr. Dickie-; son is so anxious to establish, viz, that it) is better and cheaper than the old way of road-making. Ic is better, no doubt, and— more profitable for him and a few of his friends, who were paid from $3 25 to $3 50 per day for working it. In every other way it is an extravagant sham, which this District and a depleted Treasury can ill aff ord. i Under the old system, our road scale of-

makiogs, their garden parties and picnics, }$175, with the statute labor, under the di-

rection of intelligent overseers, was suffi cient to put the district's roxds in good re- pair. This year Mr. Dickieson aud his machine and friends have used up $163 ex- perimenting for the information of the S. P. W. Ali very good wih a full treasury, but with big yearly defis ts and debeutures to face, what can be said? Is Lot 65 to have its old road scale of $175 for turn- piking and otherwise repsiring the alance of its roads and culverts? If not we have only $12 left to do all the work, a sui not half sufficient to buy cover- ing for the new culverts required

Mr. Dickie: on says that he repaired 1300 chains or 16} mies of roads at a cost of In this work it is needless to say that all the bridges and

to Canadians by the McKinley tariff impost of |culverta were passed over, though no doubt

counted. In this district there are about 40 miles of roads, so that 23} miles of the worst roads are left untouched, which must | now be done with #12 and the statute | labor, while some farmers’ settlemeuts will have no statute labor to perform. Their roads have been repaired at the cost of the whole district. It will be interesting to find out how the neglected portions will | feel over it. Under the old system, the repairing vf the roads was sold tothe lowest bidder, and the money paid to 4 great many poor people in the district. This year a change has taken place. Mr. Supervisor Dickie- son and a few independent farmers have the money without competition. And aside | from this I venture to say that of the 1,300 chains claimed to have been repaired, 600 chains needed no repairs. The machine was run over them with very little trouble and less benefit. So, this great road- making business, which Mr. Dickieson claims cost only 72 cents per chain, actually | cost from $1.25 to $1.50 per chain. Esti- mating the work to do at the same rate as what was done, our district’s road repairing would cost $400. This, with the statute labor and the bridges and culverts yet to be built and repaired, will cost the nice little bill of $1,000 No wonder Mr. Dickieson supports the G.vernment at present with a will, and that seme aspiring young men wish to be allied to the supervisor who has auch a fat job.
