principal dllereiuvs btween the two acts hut whether the alterations made by uiir legislature in framing our act he pru- dtt reasonable and an improvement on the model we do not possess information oryx- perience sufficient to determine there is a curious mistake in the third section of run act as it appears in the hte edition of the statutes which provides that every barrel of prime beef consisting of eltoice purees oj oxen steers cows and h tiers shall b branded by the inspector with the vtcr- primk pork as however our pork and beef are tot sb- ieet to reinspection in lower canada
