Our Neighbours and Ourselves. The Legislatures of the United States and (fanatic. exhibit at the present time some rather startling contrasts that so her tllnuglll c.-nnot commend 113' the sum of common sense. That of the States is deeply pcrpicxed as to how it can rrducc tuxntion without. lessening the tariff on protected articles of home manufacture. The rapid reduction of their public debt is the cause of this dilemma, as there is no need to nmlntwllt the same rate of lnXZIIIOH; but. how they ore to lower it without breaking down the wall of proâ€" tcctiou sec-ms to them an insolublc prob- hm. They are divided on the subject, and as a mutter of course are discussing it over the whole Union. [low it will end may for n timc be a matter of some doubt, but the. probabilities arc that the protective boirings of the turilf will be greatly modified. The Dominion Legislation is taking the surest method of maintaining the N. I’. by sinking the country so deeply in debt that there must of necessity be u. heavy taxation itnposod to pny the in- terest thereon. The Opposition, being powerless to prevent this contraction of debt, will be placed by its enormous a- mount at. so great a di>ttdvnntagc that. ~upposing them to be again reinstated in office, they could do little to modify tax-.Ltiou, the weight of the dcbt being too great to allow of much change in the tariff. DUUDIIU>S something could be done that way, but the country would fail to derive much or lusting advantage from it. The predictions of those who said the N. I’. would be short-lived are likely to be falsified in a way that the must acute could not foresee, the authors of that schcmc having taken the surest. method of giving it u long life. Debt! debt! and tens of millions of it, is the infalli- blu security for its permanence. And now Bloke, McKenzie, Cartwright. and the whole of the anti-N. P.‘s may rail against it as loud and long as they like, for it. is rendered all but interminable by the grants to the railway syndicate. Verily Canada. has statesmen who are equal to the task of first making Sclfish- nztss u stepping-stone to their gaining otiice, and then making debt. the guarâ€" dian of their position. Let’s Have a. Steamer. A supornbuudnnce of work this week renders it impossible for us to urge up- on our fellow-villagers, as strongly as We could wish, the advisability of protect- ing their houses and property from the ravages of fire by procuring. as soon as possible, a first-class steam fire-engine and all the appliances necessary to work it. We know the objection that almost every man has to paying taxes, and have more than once pointed out the un- rcasonublcncss of it; but, us' Mr. lion- :ild, of Brussels, proved at the meeting, last week, the purchase of even the larg- est and most. Costly engine in the mar- ket would actually put money into, in- stead of taking out of, the pockets of in- surers. while the very trifling sum non- iusuiers would have to pay would be more than compensated for by the pro- tection afforded by the engine and the comfortable feeling of rccurity caused by its prc>cuce in the village. Though the cost of a good steam tireâ€"engine and its appurtenances would probably foot up to bl'lWUCll four and five thouxaud dollars, it would be. wise to proxidc our- selvrs with them even if they had to be paid for at. once, but when payment can be extended over n number of years and the total amount be saved in insure-nee. to say nothing of the destruction of property prevcutcd, it is duWnrlgbt lolly to be without them an hour longcr than we can mold it. A tax of about $1 25 l per auuum for tcn years on property val- l l l l the engine; And if any nntcpaycr doubtn that this outluy would be repaid chr nod orcr again by tho rcductiou on in- surqucc. let him tend the following, the truth of which con very easily be sub- atlntlott‘d: The Town of Pembroke, Ont., dcsirom of gutting oneof' the Bruxs'cls Steam It‘irc l . . . l to leading Insurnncc Companies to nod : out what inducements they would ofi'cr l in reducing rates.

The following day both par- ties had to appear before J. L. Read.

Public sympathy is greatly on the side of Dr. Wilson, who is generally "38Mde 3-“ one “M likely ‘0 quarrel lf- brass band, and it is to be hoped that he can help it, and there are rumours of his taking proceedings in a higher court, so the public will then get a full view of the motives and actions of these med- ical belligercnts.

A CHILD Hour â€"Last Thursday two mnrcs, that had been turned out that morning to graze on the. commons, were attracted by the whiunyiug of Mr. Two mcy's horses on his lot on Bond street, and walked up to the fence that enclosed it. Some young chidrcu were playing close by, and us the murcs were leaving one of them knocked down and severely injured a little buy, only two and a half yours old, son of Mr. Gabriel \lartin, who lives on the some street. as Mr. Twomey. As the child, which was at first l’oportcd to be fatally hurt, is fast recovering, we are inelincd to bulievc that the animal must. have accidentally struc'; it with her knee or foot, for if sue! a. mere baby Ilzltl either been kick. cd or troddcn upon, as some say it was, instant death would almost inevitably have resulted. Three or four persons witnessed the accident ; but no one of them appcors to have been ncur enough or in the right. position to soc exactly how it occurred. A NEW ENTERPRISE.~â€"-Mcssrs.

They talked ofnpplying for the fog crid of \Vtttcl‘ street left by the canal, which the council would no doubt willingly have granted, but it. proved too small, and their fiictory will, therefore, prob ably be situated somewhere on the shore. of Cameron Luke. At ll recent sale at Midland they purchusl‘d ll first‘eluss 75 horse power engine and bollcr nearly as gOod as new, and inform us thit they intend to commence bui ding as soon possible.

He mmt unfairly takes it for granted that the Opposition leader was influenced in the matter solely by motives of policy, and thrctv out his masterly speech mortx ly us a bid for the Irish vote. "If to bribe with money is bad."sn_vs this truc- ulent and cynical critic. "to bribe with ("infusion and blood~hcd is worse." Such reasoning is buncntlt coutcm t. We have not much opinion of A‘ r. Blake's capacity for leadership. but he is the last. man who could fairly be charged with set-king to encourage an- arehy and bloodshed. The Irish resolutions ofthe Cunndinn parliament were intended to encourage a constitutional agitation. \Vbctbor the granting of Home Rule be advisable or not, nothing can be clearer than that the Irish people have the right. to ngitntc for it. and to seek to obtain self-govern- ment. such as we enjoy in Canada by all lawful menus.

What. right has Bystander Smith to ussumc that Mr. Blake was acting a part in speaking and voting on the resolutions?
