(:0? "9a.“! mm‘mfifi DURING the first three month: of the present year 135,000 elieus entered the United States by New York, three times the number who came in during the seine riod last year. It is ca!- eulated" t at 400,000 immigrants will come in via New York during the present twelve" months, "ma-100,000 more by other American ports. If the caloulationi il' verified by the fact it wiil be unprecedented in the history bf immigration. The gmteet influx Wee that of 1873, [11011437,000 for- ‘h-‘ eignm came in. In 1854. 1527,8001 immigrants entered the Union. The People now alriving are from all team ‘ t1iou in about the same proportions,s fact which contrediots the belief thst‘ the Irish famine has yet sent many people to America. The distress in Ireland will cause meny people to leave the country, but as yet they ere uneble to pay the panage money. It 1s evident that an unprecedented immigretion to this continent has set in, end will pro- bably continue for e decade, as usual. Canada should be new active in ditert- ‘ ing 11 large part of the etnem to the N01 thwest Tm: Report of the Minister of Agri- culture shows a satisfactory growth of the export of live stock to Great Bri~ tain. In 1877 the animals shipped for the British Markets were as follows: Cattle, six thousand nine hundred and forty ; sheep, nine thousand five hun~ dred, and swine four hundred and thirty In 1878 the numbers were increased to: Cattle, eighteen thousand six hundred and fifty~five ; sheep, forty -one thousand two hundred and fifty, and swine, two thousand seven hundred and seventy- eight. In 1879 the figures rose to: Cattle, twenty~fonr thousand six hun~ dred and eighty two ; sheep, seventy-o nine thousand seven hundred and forty- five. The exports of butter and cheese also show a gratifying increase, the ex" ports of the former being 12,000,000 lbs. to Britain. Large as this seems to be, it is small compared to what it might beâ€"being not much more than a twentieth of the importations of Britain, and not half the amount ship- }‘ed by the little State of Denmark. Canadian butter is a long way behind in quality yet, and an improvement equal to that which has made the cheese of Canada equal to any made on the globe is needed in butter making. Tun Supreme Court has decided that the Scott Temperance Act is constitu-- tienal. The appeal upon which the decision was- given came from New Brunswick. The city of Fredrickton, had adopted the Act, but on the appeal of an applicant for a thvern license to the Provincial Courts it was decided that the Act was illegal, and that the Dominion Parliament had no power to make such a law. The same question had also been raised in Ontario, and in order to settle the matter and know where the power to efl'ect legislation of this kind existed, the New Brunwick case was carried to the Supreme Court. The Dominion Government undertook the expenses of the appeal, and ap- pointed counsel to argue the case. And after mature consideration the Chief Justice with the majority of the Judges has given judgment that the Dominion Parliament had full power to pass the Act; that whatever matter is not by the Confederation Act expressly rele- gated to the Provincial Legislatures, belongs to the Dominion; that where there is a conflict of authority, or any doubt and uncertainty the Dominion Parliament must be supreme. A DEPUTATION, consisting oi Messrs. Henry Boys, County Treasurer; David Dunn,Reeve of Essa; Chas. Drury, Reeve oi Oro; M. H. Harrison. Dep uty-Reeve of Barrie ; Geo. Evans, Reeve of West Gwillimbury; and W. Mc Del mid, Reeve of Tecumseth, wait- ed on Attorney~General Mount, last week, to urge upon the Government the necessity of taking some steps to relieve the county of Simcoe of the great burden of expense incurred through the administration of justice in the districts of Muekoke and Parry Sound. The deputation also complain- ed that the county of Simcoe bears the expense under this head in respect to several townships that are municipally connected with the county of Victoria, and they asked that these moneys so expended in the past should be refunds ed to the County of Simcoe. They asked that a new provisional [county should be formed, embracing these townships, or failing this, that the county of Victoria should assume the expense of administering criminal jun. tice therein. The Attorney-Gemini stated that the matter had been engag~ ing his attention for some time vast, and he hoped before long to be ab e to «levim some scheme that would meet the difficulty. He asked the deputie- tion to forward their request to him in writing, accompanied with figures hear. ing out the statements made, and he would give ills subject his most serious considemtlo . @ditnrfiul gum.
