for the division.So far as we can judge, their associations are, of all organizations which are iu the habit of placing candidates in the field, the most honestly favorable to prohibition.An independent as to parties would make the best candidate.If they choose a prohibitionist it is not improbable that, after the experience of the parties iu Montreal East, they will have the choice of the support of the parties, and, perhaps, will have opposition from neither.There is no time to lose, as the nomination takes place next Thursday, and the elections on the fol lowing one, and all

ROT EST.Halifax is up in arms.The Canadian Paciliu Railway Company promised to complete the short Hue to Halifax by the first of July next.And as yet the Company has not done a stroke of work on the purely Haligonian portion of the route.The short line is, however, nearly finished up to a point at which it will make a connection with St.John, N.H., and the Halifax people are naturally alarmed lest St.John alone is destined to he the Canadian terminus and Halifax be loftout In the cold.At a meeting of the Chamber of Commerce of tbe city pro tests long and loud have been made, and somewhat covert throats as to what the Par liament of Canada will and will not do, in ease the Canadian Pacific does not keep good faith with Halifax, wore made.Nova Scotia sends a good many supporters to the aid of the Government in Parliament, ami room No.8 will probably he once more in requisition at the next session.The Haligonians threaten to obstruct the fast mail service upon which the Canadian Pacific Railway lias set its heart unless the Company carries out its bargain with Halifax.They say that they appreciate the benefit such a service would be to Canada, but unless the fast line has its only terminus in Canada, and unless the short line is completed to Halifax so that Halifax will, at least, be in a position to he considered as the port for such a service, the fast service should not he sanctioned by Parliament.Parliament, as a whole, will probably insist upon considering the fast service project nom its merits.That is a question quite a, art from the question of the necessity of the short line to Halifax.If there lie any contract binding the Canadian Pacific to construct its short line to Halifax the Government should see that it is carried out.The Government will, however, hardly do this unless it is in the interest of the Cana di.ni Pacific to fulfil the bargain, or unless the Haligonians can embarrass the Government sufficiently to induce it to pay the Canadian Pacific to carry out its contract.It is only a question of money with the Canadian Pacific.It I- Evident that Mr.Harrison is going to be asked by a certain section of the Republican party to reward with public office the writer of the Murchison letter as soon as he becomes President of the United States.If this demand is made the manner in which it is met will serve as a fair test of the character of the new administration.If Mr.Harrison deliberately confers public honors upon a man who, by an act of the vilest treachery, assisted in bringing about the defeat of the Democratic party, it will be equivalent to a declaration that for the next four years the Government of the United States is to be managed by and in the interests of the meanest elements that ever ruled a free people.If, on the other band, Mr.Harrison refuses to reward the concoctor of such a vile plot, it will be equivalent t » a declaration that the next administration will be national and honest in so far as an administration which is a creature of the combines can be honest.HIDE INSPECTORS RECOMMENDED, then, is the I ?Would not such perplexing Tb* Hoard of Examiners for the French complications be obviated by having a Chamber of Commerce hare recommended to woollen Lieutenant < îovernor who would the cens: deration cf the Govern ment, a* Hide The Facts brought out by the farmers at the recent meeting of the Farmers Institute of Frontenac as to the effect of the fodder famine in the midlands of Ontario, caused by the droughts of the first pirt of last sum mer, are a serious arraignment of the Federal Government for its callousness in negle:ting to do what it easily might have dene to mitigate so great an evil.It was stated at this meeting,apparently with the concurrence of all present, that the scarcity of fodder had led to the wholesale clearance of live stock from the farn s, the sale and export of calves and unmatured cattle and of milch cows.And the Hon.Mr.Kirkpatrick said that this state of things extended over a considerable area.Had the Government removed, even for a short time, the hesvy duties that prevent the importation of foreign corn and oats, this sacrifice of the prospect* of the future would not have been necessary.Instead of doing this the Ministry attempted to salve its conscience by setting all its organs at work to ;eer at the fodder famine, which they con-tinned to do in what must have appeared to the distressed farmers a most heartless fashion.\t_ The \u201c Speech From the Throne\u201d raises curious questionings as to who is the great I who speaks.The Speech gives the 'oup de ijraee to the sick Governor, who is slain by a compliment in the first paragraph.The Speech commences with, I am sure you all join me in regretting the absence, through illness, of the Head of the Executive from the office which he so worthily fills.It is not, thee, the Head of the Executive who speaks.Is it Judge Botté, the momentary occupant of the throne ?Later on we learn how \u201c my Government thought this and did that.\u201d It certainly wai not Judge Boss s Government that did those things.Who, Inspect rs.Measra Henri Goncat, ioi|«*ctor for

and yt, after three months of sight set'iug, till Hatii'»-d to the point of indifference, an afternoon tu .»au-terbwry Cathedral was an experience never to be forgotten.And ao, rexder, if these letters he heavy reading, remember that the imperative conditions of the bhetne, and the real purp.-u o.tho letter» forbid the freedom that writers utually enjoy : and let y(.ur interest in th- -uo-jrct make the 1-ttt'rs eas-er reading.It m *y he that when the study i« coinploted wo my/ all feel inclined for two or three gossipy letters which may be the creaming, as it were, of toe interesting features of tl.e tup, and having no other than this figurative referenc*» to d urytac.Immediately following the meetings of the British dairy farmers, I determined to leuru tho i-resi'iit state of the English market and -vr own standing therein as producers.This line d investigation embraced a run through Lug and, Scot land and Ireland, and its chief feature was a series of INTERVIEWS WITH LEADING IMPORTERS of Liverpool, Glmgow, Dublin and IDistol.The ImniiB 1» arned in these interviews were of exceeding value, and I will try to give the chief iiointe without going too much into voluminous detail.First of all 1 must deliver two special MESSAGES TO OCR CHESSE-MAKSH9, with which Mr.Widgery (of Bristo ) charged me.Un the side of every cheese bux the figures of tho wi ight of the cheese it cu:it.»ins should bs stencilled in plain figures.S:ennle are frequently used for the names of Uc^oihm, nod this is well: but the weights are nearly always written iu pencil, often badly written, indeed, sometimes not readable It oft ;ti hap* pens, too, that piece's ».f the box, ou whic.i the weight ia|writtou,ftrfislitidf audtheweigh: is 1 \"It is impossible, a* things are, to tally one thousand che-»se« twice alike ! \u2019\t1' ron: ti.e im- tn rter'» point of view it is more inq>ort*nt that the weight of the cheese be easily deypherod than that the name cf th.* factory b* n »de pUiu.Toe latter is ft good thing, in c .«e ft reputation and to advertise ones factory ; but the former i* absolutely mc-ssAry for tboor>u veuient and correct checking of weights.I mi may by soim bf* thought a tritia*, but t) tl» \u2018Vu»* nan nothing is a trille which is eseential t> highest success.The import» r is the buyer of our poods, and it is to our interest b> p.ease him, even as it is t our interest to satisfy th'» consumer.Here, then, ii an opportunity for our factorymen t>' muko a very little exti » care and labor tell profitably -u -ur cheoe * exp 'rts.Tho Ftcond message was in the form of A CACTION TO SHiri\u2019EHS.The English law forbids the imp >rtalien of foreign good» with English nanus on them ini' nded or calculated to lead the consumer to be lieve them to be of Eogli-h manufacture.The Customs authorities will refuse to \u2018 clear goods which opj>eor to b*\u2019 so intended, r or instance, tht-y would detain good* marked with the words \u201cL-»'d.*,\u201d \"Manchester, or Jur-minghnni,\" or even *'l.tgli»h Cheddar.a tie latter would be supposed to be resting on the n-i utation of a i articular cheese made in a certain ciitrict in England, Now it sometirn-* occurs that an English name on Canadian cheese gives the im|>orter a deal of trouble t > e\u2019ear it and causes vexations delay, because the name on the cheese happen* to suggest to the Customs officer* an intention to deseive the Bfitis-i Public I reed not eay that any name on Cinadian ch ese is ther- legitffhately, being a C-.nadiaa as wcl! m an English name ; but thougu it may have no unlawful significance, the ctficor will retain the good* until the importer shall have convinced him that tho similarity of name* i* a u,,-re cnendt ro\tTa» '\tshipper may COST Of PRODUCTION, as well as quality of product.I have already touched upon this phase of the iubject, but surely U will not bs thought vain repetition to Ma-ak of auch important matters a» often as tuey prias themselves forward in our Djv«j»tiga-tiou of the subject.This is not the only |>has.j of the subject that will be so imperative in its character, and so important in it* bearing, that ün tlfr principle of line upon line, and precept upon precept, will demand reiteration.I have never been accuied of being a peesi-mist, but I hav-» written so much in th s connec tion that i* on the dark side that is maybe thought that the picture m ght b* painted brighter, 1 will quote what Frof.Sheldon said in isSfi, but wa» not se.n by myself till aftw having iieuned the matter in th»»m lettirs, in striking confirmation of all I have written : He got-a on to say that cattle, to-, had net kept their value, and even the milk trade was \"limp and languid;'' and that farmers were 10 danger of being \"cleAii beaten out by thetimes ;
