About 500 The following ofti- Anderson, Yarmouth, Christian Steves, In his interview with the Manchester Men Sir John is reported among other things to have said : ‘For the last five or six years, ever since the United States overcame the depression caused by their long war, and from other causes which operated here as well as in Canada, we have bad a series of bad years and a series of deficits; and as you will all admit that is a bad state of affairs. {very nation should make imcome and ex- penditare meet if it wants to fulfil its obhi- gations. The tariff adopted in the spring of 1870 in Canada is essentially a revenue tariff, and the consequence is that this year we ex- pect there will be evena balance of revenue and expenditure. If there is a deficiency at the end of our fiseal year, which is the 30th of June, of which I am not yet informed, it will be so small as to be of no great account. While the tariff which we adopted is a reve- nue tariff in substance, and for the purpose of enabling us to meet our obligations, it was thought, wisely or unwisely, that it conld be so adjusted as to assist the infant manufactures of Canada, and, as regards the farmers to prevent the great occasional local disturbace in values of agricultural products in Canada by the interjection at particular points: for particular purposes of the great American capitalists who form ‘‘ rings’ and ‘* corners” of all kinds for the purpose of the disturbance of the trade of their people. Our tarriff is lower than that of the United States. Ours is principally on a revenue basis, while theirs is avowdedly for the purpose of keeping out foreign goods to the encouragement of their own manufactures. Of course, if the question of the accumulation of wealth, of buying in cheapest and selling i the dearest market, were the only principlss to be regarded in the life of a nation, then [ would say that our tariff is a mistake ; but we have other considerations. There are such things as national strength and national develop- ment. We are precluded from going into the United States market because of their prohibitive tariff. The ‘* corners,” ‘‘rings, ’ —-which are associations of manufacturers— are so desirous of keeping the control of our market that it is known they send in goods and sell them by auction and other- wise alongside of our manufacteries in order to destroy the manufacturer. When any Canadian merchant goes to the United States, and it becomes known he comes from Canada, he gets a large glis- count in erder to keep and maintain the control of our market, and they assess the loss sustained by such transactions upon the whole association. The consequence of this is that our manufactures can never grow.” */--. The Art Union of Canada. The President and Managers of the Art Union of Canada have issued their pros- pectus for 1880, in which they refer to the re-organization of the Union, the increas- ing public interest in its objects, its satis- factory financial condition and the inzreas- ed number of subscribers for the drawing next month. The contents of the Art of the committee, with the view of render- ing the choice of sketches as varied as possible, and thus enabling subscribers who may desire to exchange their coupons for sketches, to gratify their individual! tastes in the selection both of the subjects | and the artists. For the information of new members, it may be stated that the| subscribers to the Art Union receive in re- turn for each subscription of $5, Ist, four admission tickets to the Annual Exhibition, the gift cf the Society of Artists. 2nd, a Y5, 1880, Grates, NO, 81 ‘their friends. Subscribers disposing of seven tickets, receive the eighth ticket free, ‘as commission. It will thus be seen that the Art Union offers the most liberal in- iducements to all who may der‘ve to avail ithemselyes of the opportunities which it | presents, of becoming possessors either of | the sketches or the more finished works of ‘our Canadian Artists The Committee jhope that increasing numbers will avail | themselves of the advantages thus offered, sand that, in the concluding words of the \last Annual Report, ‘tthe Art Unien will lever be found a most valuable-and effective agency in fostering a love of Art in Canada hy bringing good examples of it within the j reach of those who have hitherto had little | opportunity of pessessing them, and thus, iby the ‘‘silent edneation of the eye,’ im- parting that taste and knowledge which will not only conduce to a better apprecia- tion and enjoyment of Art itself, but will certainly lead also to « more hearty and liberal sapport of Canadian Art and Artists.” The report is signed by Senator G. W. Allan, of Toronto. The Patrons of the Society are the Governor-General and Princess Louise, Lord Dufferin, and Lieut. |Goveenor MacDonald, and among its mem- bers may be mentioned Sir John A. Mac- donald, Hon. E. Blake, Hon. George Brown, Sir W. P. Howland, J. B. Pinmb, tev. W. S. Rainsferd, Goldwin Smith, Sir Leonard Tilley, Sir Charles Tupper, and other equally well known public men, _—_—s— &« — The State of Trade. (From the Moutreal Gazette.) While the indications of our commercial prosperity continue to multiply not only from a Montreal standpoint, but viewed from most of the leading trade centres of the Dominion, as well as from the whole interior, it may not be unprofitable for us to remember the lesson of the past, and see to it that prudence and economy be not too soon forgotten, as they often prove to be in the heyday of good times. We make reference to this subject, not from any sigus of a general departure from those sound trade principles into which many of our merchants have been long and severely schooled in passing through the~ hard times succeeding the inflated period ef 1873 and 1874, but from a desire to jealous- ly guard the domains of legitimate trade against a repitition of those specula- tive irruptions which so sadly marred the brisk times above alluded to. That we have entered upon an epoch in. our com- mercial history in which home in- dustries and the trade resources of the Dominion at large are being rapidly de- veloped, no one, we presume, will have the temerity to dispute, in face of the profn- sion of facts which go to prove the affirma- tive. And yet itis just at a time like: the present, when the citadel of commerce seems almost impregnable against assault, that we deem it quite in place to drop a word of caution. That inflammable mate- rial of speculation—-cheap money—is within easier reach than ever, and opportunities are never wanting in good times like these, to foster a spirit of uneasy yearning to make money faster than it can be honestly earned through the ordinary channels ef trade. It is this spirit of fictitions trading that thrives chiefly upon chance, which business men have most to fear, and they should do ali in their power to cheek instead of assisting it as some ef them do. It would be difficult to peint to any period in the past when the trade of the country was in such thoroughly good trim as at present, and if reckless speculation can only be kept out of the field, the continuation of a steady era of prospeaity is assured. Dr. Ungers cure for Drunkenness. The claims of Dr. Unger for a remédy for curing intemperance would seem to be justi- fied, if we may rely upon as good authority, as the Chicago Tribune for the evidence. Mr. Joseph Medill, the editor, is said to be a strong indorser of the new remedy, and from the editorial comendations of it in the columns of the Triune we conclude the remedy has produced some benefit to the community already. It is claimed that the doctor has cnred 28,000 persons of the worst form of inten:perance with it, and that this is the first remedy ever discovered that Union Portfolio will receive the attention | kills the disease and the inclination to drink at the same time. Remedy—Take one pound of best fresh quill red Peruvian bark, pow- der it, senk it in one pint of dilnted alcohol Afterward strain it and evaporate it down to half a pint. Directions for its use : Dose —a teaspoonful every three hours the first and second day, and occasionally moisten the tongue between the doses. It actslike quinine, and the patient can tell by a head- ache if he is getting too much. ‘The third day take as previons,but reduce the dose te one half-teaspoonful.
