Naturally, and very wisely, the lords and gentlemen t‘llf) have been accu~tomcd all their lives to revcl in luxuries wrung from i the toll of the "lance, are endeavouring ; to st cure othr-r HOIlI‘CCS of income against the not far di<tnnt day when their pres- lcnt oncs shall have failed, and with that end in view many of them are in‘ Wasting largely in rrnl 0~lnt(Eâ€"clill'fly wild laudsâ€"on this sidc of the Atlantic. If this u‘crc dnnc purely for spnculativc purposcv, with the intention of kct-ping such lands out. of the market until the labour of others had quadrupled their value, it. would be bad enough; but it is greatly to be feared that the objch of the purchasers is not to SP” at a profâ€" it. no matter how large, but to hold the limnn‘usv: blocks until their cultivation , is rendered necessary by the increase of population, and then cut them up into farms and lease them to tenants. from I whom, of course, the utmost farthing in the way of rcnt. will bc t-xtortcd Such ! va~t areas in some of the States have illl't'lllly bccn secured by the in d grub- liors that the pcoplc are taking alarm. and a plank has been insrrlcd in the [lupublicau platform in favour of legis- lallon to prevent the acquisition of land by foreigners; and tho example thus sci should be followed by Canada. A little landlordism is inevitable and even ’ueccssary, but as a general system it would be a curse to the country, and any attempt to introduce it ought to be stcrnly opposed. First we want legis- lation to prevent foreigners (even Brit- t'le foreigners) from obtaining any more of our public lands; and thenâ€"for Par- liament can do anythingâ€"lay such a. tremendous tax on that which they have - already secured that they will be glad to sell it to the first. native willing and i able to purchase. l A LettefTrbfifBr-itish Columbia.

I am i told that there is some very fine timber along the Columbia llivcr about fifty miles from here.

I don't think that i it is going to cost the C. i’. ll. near as y much to put this road through as they 3 represent, for as far as I have been yet it is a splendid pass, and I have seen parties that. have been right through and they say that it is very good all along. They follow streams nearly all the way. They have a lot of men at work, and although they are of the rougburt kind the best of order is kept. The mounted police are all along the line, and if anythng wrong is done they bring the parties to task in short order. , Whisky is not allowcd. There was one fellow got.

I don't think Assina- boia or Alberta will cvcr be equal to it. Well, I must. conclude for this time. Give my best wishes to all my old uc~ quaiutanci-s at the Falls, and excuse bad writng aud mistakes, as I have to write lyingr on the ground. but. we will have things better after a while.

We do not suppose there is much use in saying anything more on this subject. as the village property owners appear to have relapsed into their usual state of indifference, from which it will prob. ably take another big fire to arouse them. When it curries, as come it will sooner or later, the Gazette will have to give an account very different from the following, which is clipped from the Mirror, of Meuford, where a large in- cendiary fire occurrcd a short time ago: " The engine did her duty nobly, the firemen worked hard, and the result was that. the fire was drowned out, before it could fully consume the prey its forked tongues of flame were eagerly striving to reduce to ashes. The Ronald engine is a success. It is a machine that with ordinary fair play justifies those who voted to incur the expense of purchas- ing it last fall. The execllcnce of the engine saved a large had valuable u- mount of property. Mcafnrd may cou~ gratulatc herself in the possession of a first class fire steamer and a willing fire brigade." We see by the Brussels Post that the Ronald Works have just completed a new fire engine for Toronto, and that upon bciug tested it performed in a. manner that. could not fail to satisfy any corporation.

G. Anderson. A BAD FALLrâ€"OD Friday of last week Mrs. Ellis. mother of Mr. John A. Ellis, mounted to the top of a bureau for the purpose of fautcniugr a curtain above one of the windows of her resi- dence on Francis street, and in turning around to speak to a person who catered the room, she missed her footing and fell down on to a chair, one of hcr elbows going through the cane scat. She was very badly hurt, especially on the left hip, and one or more ribs were broken, but owing to her fleshincss there was some difficulty in arriving at a cer- tainty as to the exact extent of her in- juries. She is, however, we are glad to hear, getting along nim"0. and will, no doubt, be able to get ab. min in the course ofu fcw weeks. VIOLENTLY Assaumiznfâ€"tn Lind- say, last Monday morning, Capt. Cran- dcll got into an altcrgdon with two or three roughs and was badly beaten by one or more of them, his skull being fractured and some ribs broken, if what we have heard is true. Paddy Bzriu, a well known character, Was arrested for the offcuce, and another man, named Carlin, who is believed to have been tho worst assailant, fled from town or hid himself to avoid falling into the clutches of the police. It. is said that the ulfray arose out of u dispute about the cow bydaw. which the captain ad. vacated strongly and is determined to have enforced. Very likely his injur- ies are less serious than reported, and we hope such may prove to be the case. Playing Burglar. Ktxusrox, June 8.-â€"-A shooting acci- dcnt occurred here at an early hour this morning. Three sons of Peter O'Neil, laborer, slept together, aged 4, 11 and 13 years respectively. The second, Tho- mas, having a sore finger, could not sleep, and he wokc his younger brother Peter and engaged in some tun. Tom- my fouud in the pocket of an older bro- ther a “True Blue” revolver which had a couple of days befprc bccu bor- rowed from a companion. The lads un- dcrtook to play burglar and policeman, and while one, the youtucst, pretended to be escaping, the other pointed the rcvolvcr and, not knowing it. was loud- cd. fired. The rcvolvcr discharng with aloud report, and the bullet, hissing ovcr the head of John O'Neil, who slept, struck Peter below the eye. He was taken to the hospital and died dur- ing the day in great agony. The broth- cr who fired the fatal shot was arrested but allowed to go. 0-. A Dead List. The Cubourg World warbles : “ The publisher of tho Colbornc Enterprise proposes to printa list of the parties who are some years behind in their sub- scriptions, and have dicd and gone to where newspapers could not flourish. At least, he takes it for granted that they are dead, and they have not paid up for a good while. We think he owes it to the community to publish the li~t at once, and, if possible, tho addresses of the parties. This may bring some of them to life; for if a newspaper touches anything it generally puts life into it of some kind. Indeed, the very threat to publish-the list has already restored a number to their wonted health. and led them to pay up. We wonder if there are any dead people on the llat of (hi: paper. Some, if not. dead. must be unco sick, though not It would be a dreadful trial to u: to have to con- sider the question of publishing a list." ._..,_.._~.- The law which prohibits the sale of; I I f beer on Sunday is violated in Buffalo; pilgrimage to Mecca, estimates the pilv} the 24th of last December.

Nuuaax FALLS, June 5.-â€"â€"The body of Thomas Veddcr, one of the princi- pals iu the Veddcr-I’earson tragcd , which was enacted un Goat Island on the night of the 9th of April last, was found under the precipice near/Hie Cave of the Winds, at 4 o'clock this after noon. by the well-known guide, Julln Mumford. The. body, although badly decomposed, was fully identified by his relatives, having part of his clothing on, viz, a pair of punts and an undershirt. The body was lying 0n the rocks about fifty feet away from the falls. It is al- togethcr likely when he made the fear- ful leap, if he was not thrown over, the body struck on the ice mound and roll- cd down on the rocks below, and not into the soothing abyss behind the icc mound, as was conjictured at the time of the tragedy. Thcrc all] be a full examination: of the body to see if there is any trace of bulch holes, and some light may be thrown on the mystery which has cashroudcd the tragedy. - The Position of the Pacific Railway. The loan often million pounds stor- ling, whichSir 'l‘illcy is seeking to raise in the London money market, is the largest ever asked for by a. Canadian financier. It is to bc regretted that an effort was not made to raise a portion at least of the money in Canada, so that the annual drain of interest. payable to England would be somewhat. lessened and the money retained in the country. Thcrc is little doubt that. large as the sum is, it. can be negotiated on favora- blc terms, as the English people have confidcucc in the future of Canada, and money at low rates is plentilul. The failure of the attempt to float the Canada Pacific bonds is not. likely to affect unfavorany the future of the enterprise, though it may materially lessen the individual gains of the Syn- dicate. The money necessary for the actual building of the road has been granted by parliament, and will be pro- cured l'rom England on the public seâ€" curity. There is no financial obstacle- in the way of its completion, even tho' the bonds cannot be sold to advantage. and the work will he proceeded with notwithstanding. As Canadians have had to make such heavy sacrifices to secure this object, it is earnestly to be hoped that it. will bu successful. We shall havo to pay for it, and now that the struggle is over and the money voted beyond recall, we may just as well make l the best of a bad bargain and do every» thing in our power to make the road a success. It is not. the part of patriot- ism to decry the country and strive to throw obstacles in the way of the work. The road will be built, the people will have to pay for it, and the sooner it. in built the more benefit the country will receive in return for the outlay.â€"-’1'o- ronlo News. ..
