Of the 66,000,000 acres which comprise the Canadian Province of Manitoba, there have been surveyed about sixteen and a half million of acres. There are 4,000,000 |- acres of swamp lands within the Province, and the remainder consists of the timbered and rocky region lying around Lakes Wia- nipeg, Woods. The portion under cultivation is a little over one million of acres, hitherto chietly deyoted to the cultivation of wheat, and up to the 31st of last October, the De- partment of the Interior , reported about 10,936,045 acres as having been taken up within the Provi ince. fur homesteads and pre-emptions. By .a recent arrangement made with the Province, the Dominion Government have ceded to. the Province the swamp lands, and 150,000 acres of good lands for University purposes. The remarkable fertility of the soil on the prairie section, especially that in the Valley of the Red River is so well known that it is unnecessary that I should refer to it here. The winter climates, though generally severe in the latter part of December and throughout January, is a subject of much disparagement by those who prefer the thirty-five’ degrees and the forty degrees, but there are redeeming ¢ features about this severity, which the settler — the grain raiser—knows how to appreciate, even if the denizen of the metropolis, and of the town, would prefer to see fewer minus records, and more frequent thaws in the winter months than now happen. ‘fhe in- comparably hard wheat for which Manitoba | | is famous, could not be raised were the winter climate more variable and less severe than it is. The same remark applies to Northern Minnesota and Dakota, where %{/the winter climate possesses the same characteristics as those of Manitoba, and which districts produce a quality of wheat similar to that’ raised in the Canadian prairie provinces—American Agriculturist jor June. + E+ The Royal “Absolutely Pure,” And Why. All baking. powders made from cream of tartar, except. tho Royal, contain impurities to a very serious extent, caused by the for- eign substances, chiefly tartrate of lime, al- Ways present in the cream of tartar of the market which they use. The amount of tar- trate of l’me in the cream of tartar they use is from six vo ten per cent., and frequently more; and here these powders contain this im- purity as a foreign substance to a correspond- ing extent, which is of no value, but ze detvi- ment in any powder in which it is found. The Royal Baking Powder is made from cream of tartar specially refined and prepared for its use by patent processes by which the tartrate of lime is totally eliminated. This highly important result has been attained only with great care, labor, and expense. In money alone a. quarter. of ,a_ million dollars has been invested in patents, machin- ery and appliances by which the crude cream of tartar, belng procured direct from the wine districts of co ope and subjected in. this country to these exclusive processes, is rendered entirely free, not only. from the objectionable tartrate of lime, but from other foreign substances. This adds greatly to the cost of manufacturing Royal Baking Powder; but, as all other ingredients are selected ‘and prepared with the same precise care, and re- gardless of labor or expense,an article is pro- duced tha$ is. entirely free from any extraneous substance, and chemically pure in all respects. No lime, earth, alum, or impurity of any kind can by inadvertence or by the use of adulterat- ed articles or otherwise, be introduced into the “Royal,” and it contains no ingredients except those certified by the most eminent chemists as necessary to make a pure, wholesome, and perfect baking powder, It costs more to manufacture the Royal Baking Powder than any other, but it is, as shown by chemical analysis, the only ‘‘absolutely pure” baking powder made. 5-lecetl> vanthbh-~<neteied A Versatile Author. M. Rochefort, who combines statesman- ship and duelling with the pursuit of litera- ture, has recently finished a play in five acts, of which the scene is laid in Canada. The play will be produced in New York this season. Cable despatches give the fol- lowing aceount of it:—The plot is based upon the Fenian outbreak in Canada in 1856. The heroine—Susannah Campbell- is a ward.ef Lord Hastings, the Governor General of Canada. The hero is Richard Sweeny, a fine, dashing character, with all the glorious virtues and some of the dazzl- ing vices of a young Irish gentleman of the old school. The scene is laid in Quebec. There are battles and riots, moonlight rides, lovemaking, treachery and female dagger thrusts. The fourth act ends with a terribly realistic scene, where the heroine and the hero are placed against a wall- like the Parisian communists in 1871—and are shot by a platoon of British soldiers. M. Rochefort means *‘ The Irish Girl” to be to the Irish home rulers what Sardou’s ‘** Patrie”’ is to the Dutch republicans, nines sian Expelling the Puinodai The ‘‘princes” have again been expelled from France, the Chamber of ¢ Deputies having passed a measure for that purpose and the government having promised to give it immediatefeffeet. The preamble of the bill says that when. the Republic abro- gated a former decree it was believed the Princes would respect the national insti- tutions. On the contrary, however, they had seized every chance to do injury to the|™ Republic, and the time had arrived to put an end to the schemes of the Princes. The bill empowers the Government to prohibit all the members of the families which for- merly reigned in France from remaining within the country under a penalty of five years’ imprisonment. The Minister of the Interior is to notify the ostracized of the prohibition against them by issuing a de- cree commanding them to depart. There is also a proposal to confiscate the property of the former reigning families and with bles Harness Shop, Great George Street; }thé proceeds derived from its sale to endow a fund for aged and distressed citizens.

CuEESE.—Supplies of new cheese are in- creasing, and a few sales have been made at 7 $ to 8he per lb., but the qué ality of most of the receipts is still rather poor and prices range low. Fine old cheese is about all cleaned up. Liverpool quotation 44s. Eoos.—Eastern extras have been in fair demand, with sales at 12$¢ to 13c per dozen. Provincial stock are plentiful and 12c per dozen is a full selling price for Canada or P. E. Island. Western firsts range from Ill to 12e, the outside for Michigan. Porators.—There has been a steadier tendency in the market for potatoes and some kinds are higher. Kastern Hebrons are selling at 65 to 70c. Rose are not much called for and’ 55 to 60c is a full range for Eastern, with a few Houlton at 636¢. Eastern Prolifics are steady at 60c. Chen- angoes have been selling at 45 to 47e Fisn—There is a better feeling in the market for mackerel, owing to the small receipts from the fieet, and holders of old stock are less disposed to make concessions to effect sales, Old shore No. 3 are held at $5 to $6 per bbi, and some extras go higher. The demand, however, is light and few large lots are changing hands. A _ lot of 150 bbls old No. 2 sold in Gloucester at $5.25. A cargo of 225 bbls new salt mack- erel, at Gloucester, the first full fare landed there this season, sold on Tuesday at $4.874 per bbl from pickle, with bbl. A fare of 200 bbls at New York on Tuesday last sold at $4.874 per bbl, with bbl. Old Nova Scotia mackere) continue slow of sale, and no reliable quotation can be given. Dealers place no confidence in the inspec- tion marks, as 2’s are often branded as 1's, and 3's as 2’s. Fresh mackerel are scarce, and lots cone from Nova Scotia command $3 per 100.

Sixteen of the convicts in St. Vincent de Paul Penitentiary, including Vian, who broke out will be tried at “the Montreal Assizes shortly on the charge of attemp to break jail, assault with intent to P having firearms in their possession, sobbanit destroying government property, enticing to revolt and assaulting the officers in the lawful discharge of their duty. Prison dis- ciphne has been made more stringent since the recent outbreak and all the convicts are now quiet and submissive. Viau has been released from his dungeon and has been set ti) work breaking stones in the Pe nitentiary yard. His feet are chained and he is forced to drag the convicts cannon ball, Fifteen other prisoners are also undergoing the same punishment. The Government has ordered from New York cannon balls simi- lar to those in use in Sing Sing which will be an improvement on the present system. Sa —_ Some “Safe” Arrangements. A large jewelry house in St. Louis has two ingenious arrangements to prevent the robbery of its safes. One isa movable floor surrounding the floor of the vault. Fora space of about ten feet the planking rests upon delicate springs that would he in- stantly depressed by the slightest weight. This depression brings together the two poles of aa electric battery, and notifies the police through an annunciator that there is something wrong. The other contrivance is an insulated wire passing through the side of the safe, behind the door and into the steel knob of the combination. The least turn would send in an alarm over this. Mee aE - A New York woman who is fond of notoriety has had the hoofs of her horses gilded, and they create a sensation when driven in Central Park. Three weeks ago an Indiana man taught his dog, a very finely bred, well behaved setter, to chew tobacco. Now the comes imto the house by the back door, never scrapes his fect on the mat, never goes to church, is careless at his meals, burrs in his tail, goes with a lower grade of dogs, and it is feared that he is beginning to take an interest in politics dog vets The eight-hour system was discarded in the Chicago stockyard district on Monday. A strike deve) LOp xed at Featherstoves’ foundry. Seventy employes there had gained a con- cession of the eight hour di uy and had worked several days under that system. On S saturday last a committee waited upon Featherstove for a return to the ten hours’ plan. He refused, and on Monday the men struck for a restora- tion of the ten hour day. A rude bey in Augusta, Me., rubbed his poor old father’s false teeth with phos- phorons the other night and set them in the front window to scare the passers by. Two or three women shrieked and fainted, one of them threw his umbrella through the window, and the next day the old man went around working his jaws and making faces at himself, and saying that his moutl. tasted like as if he’d swallows ed a box of matches. A lady who is the owner of property valued at between £400 and £500 a year, es applied to the Kilkenny outdoor relief bureau for acsistance. She said that she was ashamed to apply for aid, but was un- able to obtain her rents, and ‘only asked for a shilling a week fora few months. It is stated that the members of the board, who are all nationalists, refused to grant her request, ‘but offered an order admitting her to the workhouse,
