Ihe Blaze at L‘msun’: Siding. THE French Canadians in Ontario now demand a. seat in the Senate for ono of that nationality. “76 do not question the capacity .oftho race or the justice of the demand as there are 100,â€" 000 French Canadians in Ontario, but we are of tho opinion that national dis- tinctions do not belong to Canada nor should they he permitted to form the basis of such appointments. The nation- nlity of it man should bear no more weight thnn his religious persuasion. In coming to this land all new distinc~ tions ought to cease and men should be prepared to throw in tneir lot with the land of their adoption and become Cnnadinns. \Vith ll heterogeneohs popâ€" ulation such as Canada possesses every method should be employed to foster these feelings and weld the whole into one common nation, and until this is done at patriotic and loyal spirit of int- tional independence cannot exist. A Gamux paper has been compiling ihe statistics of the world’s oorrespond~ once by post and by telegraph. The latest returns which approached com- ;pleteuess were for the year 1877, in which more than 4,000,000,000 lettem were sent which gives an average of 11,000,000 a day, or 127 a second. Europe contributed 3,036,000,000 let‘ ters to this great mass of correspond- once ; America about 760,000,000 ; Asia, 150,000,000 ;-Africa, 25,000,000 ; and Australia. 50,000,000. Assuming that the population of the [globe was between 1,300,000,000 and 1,400,000,- 000, this would give an aVerage three letteie per head for the entire human race. There was in the same year 38,000 telegraph stations and the num- her of messages may be set dOWn for the year at between 110,000,000 and 111,000.000, being an average of more than 305,000 messages per day. 12,971 per hour, and nearly 212 a minute. Wuiu strenuous efforts ere being made to bring the immense and ever increasing business of the Northwest ‘ through Ontario, the possibility of 3 buildingn railroad to the Nelson river is being agitated, and evidently with considerable success. The road, it in proposed, will run from m. point on Lake hVinnipeg to near the mouth of ’the river named. The object is to fnrv 'niah an ontport for the grain trade of the Great N ortb-West to Europe con~ meeting with ocean steamers at Port 'Nelson, on Hudson's Bay. If the scheme is found to be practicable, and them is little doubt of that, from curâ€" rent reports, money will be raised and the company full y organized. The idea that the Bay is open to navigation only three months in the year is said to be a fallacy and the only impediment ie the blocking up‘ of the entrance by ice, which drifts in Davis' Straits in April and May. further discoveries will be made.
