Lo tonal Sot kale paras = Beinn THE FORCE OF TRUTH, Dreadful limits are set in nature to the powers of dissimulation. ‘Truth tyrannizes over the unwilling members of the body. Faces never lie, it is said. No man need be deceived who will study the changes of expression. When a man speaks the truth in the spirit of truth, his eye is as clear as the heavens. When he has base ends, and sperks falsely, his eye is muddy, and sometimes asquint.

Sometimes, however, the shots take effect. The other day we were watching a flock flying southward, when the report of a gun was heard and we ob- served one of the geese begin to fly slowly, The others, perceiving that their comrade was wounded, uitered shrill cries of diss tress, and about a dozen of them flew under the wounded bird, huddling together so that their backs formed a sort of bed upon which the wounded one rested. They buoyed it up for some time, the others meanwhile looking on and manifesting their concern by uttering loud, discordant shrieks. Finding that their companion was unable loager to accompany them in their flight, the abandoned him to his fate, and he fell to the earth, and into the arm; of an expectant Chinaman.— Anaheim (Cal.)

Che following is the letter of Mr. Bright, recently referred to in the newspapers :— ** Rocwpate, July 31, 1877. ‘*DeaR Mr. Porrer,—] thank you for sending me Mr. Langton’s letter of the 10th June from Melbourne. By the same mail I have three other letters on the sub« ject on which Mr. Langton has written to ‘you—-one from the secretary of. the Free Trade League of Victoria, one from Sir Charles Gavin Duffy, and one written at Suex by Mr. John Young of Montreal, t> whom the dinner at Melbourne was given: ‘“{ need not tell you that I am surprised and amused at the stir so small a matter has caused among our friends on the other side of the globe. ‘1 recollect meeting Sir Charles Gavin Duffy on his visit to this country, out | have not the least recollection that we had any conversation On the subject of Protec- tion, or on the policy of the Province of Victoria on that question. If any such conversation took place, I can say with confidence that my views have been en. tirely misunderstood and misrepresented by Sir Charle:, The words he puts into my mouth are very much like in meaning to what I think I have seen in some of the writings of Mr. John Stuart. Mill, and it may be that Sir Charles may have inads« vertently attributed to me what he has heard from Mr. Mill, or read in some of his works. “If a Government voted to support a steamboat enterprise which was deemed of great service to the country, but which, from its novelty or its risk, private capital- ists would not undertake, | should say that in doing this no sound principle would be broken, and that the public interest might possibly be wisely served. So if a Governs ment thought that a new culture might be introduced into the country, such as the grape or tea, it might appropriate a sum of money to make that experiment, leaving its future progress or fate entirely to the industry and disposition of the people, But to enact a tariff imdosing heavy duties On important articles of import, to estab, lish an oppressive and costly system of custom houses, to build up special interests before their time, or industries which might never thrive in the free air of com- petition, at the expense of taxation of the whole people, levied partly at the custom~ houses and partly by the high prices which are sought to be obtained on the home-~ made and protected article, is a policy so unsound and 80 injurious that [ am greatly surprised that anyone in the least ac quainted with me or with my life should have supposed it possible that I should give it my support. ‘* Englishmen form colonies at a distance from the Mother Country. The throw oft many of the superstitions which are still to a large extent cherished in England. In respect to protection by means of a prox hibitive or restrictive tarift, the Colony of Victoria clings to a superstition or error which we in Eng'and have abandoned, Our experience is conclusive as to the wisdom of our policy. Victoria is young and thinks she knows more and better than we know. But when she finds hers self not at the head, but at the tail of the great Australian communities as to her success and the growth of wealth, she may discover that industry has no greater enemy than a protective or restrictive tariff. “If you. will kindly send this letter to your correspondent Mr. Langton, it will not be necessary for me to write to Sir Charles Duffy orto the Secretary of the Free Trade Leage of Victoria, Price Only 2 Cents | | June 37, 1877—her 1 Believe me, &c., * Jonn Brigut,’’ ote 24.1877. NO. 85 A FAIR EXTERIOR When aman begins to go down hill, he is apt to betray the fact by his exterior appearance; he wears a long face, allows his clothes to look shabby, and acts like one bereft of hope or prospects. Now this is very poor policy; the sympathy and assistance of friends is not gained by wears ing a dirty shirt; and unless a man acts as though he had .confidence in himself he mu3t not expect to inspire it in others. And so with the external appearance of everything. Neatness of appearance docs not end with a man’s credit, but often en- hances the value of articles which he may have for sale. This is especially true upon the farm, and we will venture to say thata farmer who attends to the exterior of things in general, such as clean stables and animals, clean yards and buildings, and fences in good repair, will obtain five to ten per cent, more for the products of his farm than one who neglects such simple matters. Ifanyone doubt the effect of external appearance upon values in mare ket or elsewhere, let him try sending but. ter to market in an old weather.beaten firkin, no matter how good the butter or clean the firkin may be inside. If this oes not satisfy, try some stained and dirty eges, or half plucked poultry. Producing & good article is one thing, but selling it to advantage is quite another, and the good salesman generally makes the most money of the two. The importance of a fair ex. terior can hardly be over estimated. This principle is potent in any branch of trade und ip every grade of society; therefore it is too important to be overlooked or pass. ed unheeded. —_ News of the World. CE Ott bon pion, GREAT BRITAIN, For exposing for sale thirty pieces of beet “ina etinking state and unfit . food” at their shop in Everton Road, Liver. pool, the American Meat Company } been fined £5 and costs, as hale The great increase in the American dead meat and live stock trade is shown by sta- lustics just issued. The value of the ex- ports in the first six months of 187); amounted to $1,755,191, while for the first half of the present year it was $5,585,675, The Times regrets to have to record the death of Mrs. Marsh (Virginia Gabrie}) the gified composer of the “Widows Be witched’’ and many well known songs. While driving down Grosvenor Place in ber Victoria on Sunday afternoon, the horse took fright and bolted. Unfortunately, in Jumping from the carriage, Mrs. M irsh was ubrown on her head and became at once ipsensible, She was taken to St. George's Hospital, where it was found that she had concusssion of the brain, and only lingered till Monday night. FRANCE. During the first six months of 1877 the butchers who deal in this commodity in Paris have delivered to consumption 5,283 horses, donkeys and mules, which fur. nished 959,730 kilos. of meat (net). Dura ing the corresponding period of 1876 the numberof these animals was 4,422, which gave 803,50) kilos. The increase is, there- tore, of @ marked character, The persons who endeavored to populrize the use of horseflesh aftirm that it is more wholesome and more nourishing than beef, although often not quite so agreeable. Paris con- tains more than fifty butchers’ shops specially devoted to this article. CANADIAN, Canadian manufacturers of agriculturat implements and musical instruments have lately received orders from Australia foy their respective wares, It isto be hope such orders will be multiplied. UNITED STATES. A correspondent of the Greentield (Mase, ) Gazelle notes that certain cirds seem to be undergoing a marked change in their in. stinctive natures, He instances: ‘The crows, by nature a very shy bird, have in some instances become so tame that they have built their nests on very low branches in near neighborhood to the residence of white folks. In one instance a highly re« spectable citizen of Bernardston got so near the old crow on her nest that he of- fered her a small frog which she gladly took from his hand without any symptoms ot fear or fright.” RUSSIA. The censorship of the press has been relaxed in Russia. Forbidden newspa ~ ers have reappeared, war correspondents ‘ave been despatched to the field, and tha first afternoon newspaper ever issued in the Empire appeared about three weeks ago, The Globe has six correspondents in Bul« garia and Armenia, and Vhe Lovski Mir al- most as many. A new daiiy journal. de. voted to the interests of Pan Slavism, is to appear in Moscow. For the benetit of the lower orders of society, who cannot afford to pay three pence for the news, the Goy. ernment issues cheap, broad sheets, con - taining the official bulletins, The London Globe asrerts that the flow of information in these Government -hoets is not cons tinuous, and that tucn «.,. pleasant episodes as the battie of Zevii: » repulse at Kars, or the flight of Tu. «:. .aesoff, are carefully kept out of sight, »..: it is doubtful whe- ther their existe: is at all known ex, cept in official circles. There seems, hows ever, to be a genuiue desire on the part of the Government to seek the support of the public and to relax its restrictions up OD ne AYNnraccinn on I wee 1 eee a s ie E M BP nm cn arm ne gl 0 pe page et
