"embalmed beel" inquiry at Ot tawa has resulted in two of the sup- plying firms coming out with eredit, The goods furnished by a third were only "fair" in quality, and the hedf sold by the fourth firm is condemned as being unfit for human food, Js that all that is to be done about it Ex change. The matter will, no doubt, come be fore parliament, in the reports of the department, or in response to an order for all the papers in the case. The canned meat vendors may have been imposed upon quite as much as the, government. The quality of the ar title cannot be judged by the appear ance of the cans, but the Canadian government must see to it, like the im- perial © government; that the imposi thon is not repeated, All army sup plies should be of the best. They should be procured from houses which will not traffic in indifferent goods and resort to deception. In spite all the serutiny and care of officials, perhaps, there will be sharp practice.

It is remarkable for containing several charges said to be corrective and vet not one is based on fact. Mr. Pense did not im his speech at the city hall on Tharsday last, take credit for establishing the school of mining~~did not mention the founding of it in any way. He did not do his best to strangle it, nor did the Whig ridigule, even with one line, any of those who labored to start the school. He kas not boasted that he never supported an iv Mtn: tion that does not succeed.

Probably it got away from its anchorage in the spring of the year, for, toward the latter part of July it had reached thé lati tude of Wilmington, Delaware, By Au- gust it had passed Cape Cod and was veerjng toward the Grand Banks. It followed the steamer lane routes quite accurately, and several vessels report ed it. Ope month later it was in mid- ocean, northwest of the Azores, and its vovage was beginning to tell on it. It was much smaller and less compact It was not seen again, and probably met destruction in the October gales. but it had travelled at least 1,000 miles, and if. as was thought, it came from the Orinco, it must have covered twice that distance. It is quite pos sible that floating islands larger than this one, under « more favoring cir cumstances, might during past ages have made the complete journey from America to Europe or Africa and so brought about a distribution of ani mal species.
