When the National Policy was inaug- urated the farmers found that they were to have themselves mulcted by being obliged to pay 25 per cent. on imple- ments brought from outside. They have patiently submitted «to the exac- tion; nay, more, at the elections last June by a majority sanctioned that pol- icy. Seeing that they did so, a new raid is to be made on their purses by the addition of another 10 per cent. in favour oi'the homc manufacturers. Thus they are compelled to buy from them or pay 35 per cent. duty on all they buy outside the Dominion ; or, in other words, they were obliged at the outset to pay 25 per cent. more for their tools than they could have bought them for, and now they are to pay 35 per cent. Now it iso. rather serious matter for farmers to be taxed for the tools thev work with, and by the use of which they are able to make luruling pay. Specially, too, is its hard matter, as. owing to the shortness of the seasons and the scarcity of hands, it is indis- pcn~iblc that they should have a great variety oi'cxpensivo implements. ‘Thc cost. of n reaper, mower, seeder, hay rake, pluuglls, barrows. cultivators, &c., may, fora farm of 100 acres, be set down as at least $400. A tax of 35 per cent. on that sum amounts to $112.- 70; besides the annual cost of breakâ€" ages and tear and wear, which amounts to considerable, and the renewals for which are also taxed. It seems hard that the farmers here should be thus tuxud while the farmers in Britain can have all the implements they wish fret- of duty. They are also taxed in the house as in the field, for‘jf they’want a sewing machine they are obliged to pay as high a price as they can get it for iron.) the States, besides paying a hen- vy duty. How long they will submit to this remains to be seen. ".l‘is " the last straw that brooks the camel’s back " â€"the last act of oppression that rouscs up thespirit of rebellion, and this ex (In 10 per cent. is likely to rouse up the spirit of resistance to a yoke which i.~ ncavicr than the Autocrat of Russia .lnrc place on his skin-clothed serfs. Tht- prime movers in this additional tuxa lieu of farmers are the agricultural im~ plemcnt manufacturers. It was well rthllL'll known that, notwithstanding their being protected by 25 per cent. duty, u. large number of impleumntt~ were brought from the States. Deem- mg the protection they had insufficient, they quite recently sent a deputation oI some of the least. known of their body to Ottawa to solicit from Sir ll. Tillcy an extra amount, in order to keep out foreign goods and enable them to make their own prices. The intelligence oi their being there and of the object they had in view excitcd a great deal of asâ€" tonishment in the agricultural commun- ity, as well it might. Still more are they astonished at the proposal to add 10 per cent. to the cost of those tools that are nearly as essential to their op- crations us sunshine and rain. Some of them regard it as the wages for work done, on behalf of the party in office, at the recent elections. This cannot be wholly true, as it is well known that they arc far from being one in politics; but. the attempt to make agriculture the milch cow from which all parties are to extract. what suits their own wants, must sooner or later recoil on the heads of those who make it. Farmers hold in their own hands the power to over- throw nny party wll’osc aims are adverse to their own interests ; and when they find that they are being called to pay 10 cents extra for a dollar's worth, they are just the men to ask the reason why. And it is almost needless to say that the telling them that it is to suppon Canadian interests will be no reason in their eyes. It is high time that this protection hutnbug was dead and buried. This last phase of it must hasten its dissolu- tion. The additional l0 per cent. dose is too much for the agricultural sto- much. and will infalliny lend to the ejection of the 25 already swallowed. The pretence upon which it was admin- istered by the political quack who it:- ventcd it to gain the spoils of «idiot! is such to be a more piece of Selfislltlrm. Their creed. “ Thou shalt love thyself better than thy neighbour," is too but- Tuos. Snwaar. A Mix. A. MCDONALD. TTORNI'IYnt'f-LA W, Solicitor in Chan- : ct'ry, Conveyance-r, kc..&c.

Very naturally they will i go anywhere but there. i The Trent Valley Canal. Owing to the unfavourable weather l during the past winter the work on the canal in this village was not prosecuted , s: vigorously as it would otherwise have 2 been; but. as many men as could be ad- ! vantageously employed were kept cou~ stantly busy. except for a few hours at n time, when it was too stormy for them to remain out of doors. Still, consider- able progress has been made, and from the west side of Colborue street to the river (between which points the opera- tions have been confined for the last three months) there is a yawning chasm from twenty-live to thin feet deep for about half its length. he stone taken out has been got rid of in various ways, a good deal having been removed by persons who intend building; but an immense quantity has been used in fill- ing up the gully behind the post-ofiioe, where such a change has been made that a person who had not visited the spot since the canal was commenced would hardly recognize it. The shal- low excavatiou above where the locks will belocatcd has been nearly full of wa- ter; but it is now draining oil’. and we expect that in a very short time work will be resumed “all along the line." There are new four derricks employed to lift out the masses of rock, which are drawn away by means oi wooden railways, and a good many men and horses are at work ;- but the scene is nothing to what it will be in a few weeks, when the number of workmen will be doubled, if not quadrupled, arid a powerful steam engine, or perhaps two, will be kept busy pumping water out of the out. ' ,_ How soon the Trent Valley Canal is likely to be completed we do not pre- tend to know. The late estimate con- tained the sum of $18,500 in addition to that already voted, yet there is no provision made for letting new con- tracts, and we can only hope, with the Peter-borough Review, that the supple tncntary estimates, when brought down, will contain the necessary provisions therefor. The Exumimr is very indig- nant and says : “ The action of the Government shows that there is no real intention of proceeding with the work as though they meant to have it com- pleted. * 3‘ Patching dams and slides at Buckhorn and Burleigh and Fenelon Falls won’t. constitute the Trent Valley Canal. If the Government was in earnest, would so much time be lost and fooled away ? The canal scheme is practicable. We want the canal; but it. will never be built as long as its con- struction is trusted to Government prom- iscs. Whatever expenditure there has been on the scheme is properly charge- able to capital (political) account, and this is the explanation of all the delay and all tllc trifling with this important work.” l The .Wai'der. The Lindsay Warder distorts our rc-. marks concerning Mr. Fell with its; tisu- nl ingenuity and disregard of that csti unable virtue which was once said to have been lost in a well; and there can- not bc the least doubt that our contents porary's share has been lost so effectually that it can’t. be found again. Happen- ing to take up Martin Chuzzlcwit the other evening it opened at the 44th chapter, which commences as follows : " It was a special quality, among the many admirable qualities possessed by Mr. Pccksniif. that the more he was found out, the more hypocrisy he prac- tised. Let him be discomfortcd in one quarter, and he refreshed and recom- penscd himself by carrying the war into another. If his workings and windings were detected by A. so much the great- or reason was there for practicing with- out loss of time on B, if it were only to keep his hand in." Now, by simply substituting the War- Ilcr for Mr. I’ccksniff, and mendacity for hypocrisy, we have as good a pic- ture of the Lindsay tory organ as can possibly be drawn; and, such being the case, every rational reader will share our opinion that it is simply a. waste of time and a squandering of eloquence to reply to any of its little animadvcrsrons. m Cameron.

To the Editor of the Frnelon Fth Gascm. Sin,â€" I beg leave to call your attention to the following clause in the Postal Savings Bank notice to depositors: “ The post-mus- ter‘s receipt given in the dcpositor’s pass book is not of itself sufficient without the Post-Master Gencrul's receipt from Otta- wa." I understand this to be an intimation that Government does not hold itselflin- bio for the sums paid by depositors to postâ€" masters until the Post-Master General sends the depositor a. receipt. If I am correct in my view, then it follows that any sums paid by depositors tq a post-master are at their own risk as to his honesty, but not at the risk of the Government, whose servant he is.
