In Quebec the Church of Rome in- creased by 121,251 ; the Church of England 0,118; thePreSbyterians 2,314; the MethodiSts by only 517. As to the other provinces in the matter of in crease, the Presbyterians take the lead in Manitoba and the Territories, the Church of England in British Colum- bia, whilst the Church of Rome leads in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. The number whose creed was not specified was 33,983. The Universalists and the Disciples are only half as numerous in the Dominion as they were ten years ago; the Jews have doubled; and Pagans are six times as numerous. M 'l‘im Toronto Glade and several of the lesser retorm organs are not pleased at Sir Oliver Mowat’s acceptance of the honor of knighthood, and have been in consequence indulging in various mean assertions intended to reflect upon both the Ontario premier and his poli- tical opponents. The G/olzc asserts that the late Hon. George Brown re- fused the title because he would not have his name associated with those of Sir John Macdonald and other distin- guished conservatives. Itis well known that Mr. Brown refused the title on principle, and not from any such ill- natnred and childish fact of it is, in the earlier days it was thought that the distribution of such titles in the colonies might give rise to certain social distinctions that it is not desirable should be perpetuated in new 507,869, which includes the estimated countries. reasons.

The fact of it is, ever since Sir Oliver Mowat gave the death-blow to the disloyal movement of a. section of the reform party, the Gloéc’s friend- ship for the little premier has been of a very doubtful character. First came the insinuation that the “evidences” were but an understudy of Paley; ‘ now’s it’s a whack at the title. SALE Mâ€"O PS. __ HEAVY RAIN.â€"-â€"On Wednesday the 25th of May the rain fell so heavy that it was running in torrents cver the fields of grain, which made some of the farmers grin to look at it.

Of all these if only the thrushes, the skylarks and the nightingales survive and multiply, the population of the Pacific Coast may well be grateful. But the report is that all these birds have taken kindly to their new enVironment, and are spreading in all directions. Rural life will have a new pleasure when the skylark sings at heaven’s gate, when the first pale streaks of the dawn, and is fol- lowed in clear liquid notes of extraordin- ary variety and sweetness by the high- perching thrush. The nightingale is a concert in itself when it begins to trill on a moonlight light, and keeps up its song of low: far into the small hours.
