Ay the close of Coroner Batemans exhaustive charge the jury retired to the house of Wm. Logan, one of the jurors, accompanied by several special- ly sworn-in county constables. After about one hour's deliberation the jury returned, and brought in the following extraordinaiy verdict, taken verbatim from the original. * An inquisition indented taken for our sovereign lady the queen at the house of Bernard Buker and at the fire hall in the village of Pickering, in the township of Pickering, in the county of Outario, on the 16th, 21st and 22nd days of November, before Coroner Bate- wan, on view of the body of Wu.

Our noble Canada needs no such treatment, ' hands off" should be enforced on all political quacks, and the youthful giant will soon overcowe the degene- rating effects of political poison, kick off all Bhtters and stand forth among the indgpendent nations of the earth, the youngest and most promising of them ail. Those who whine over Canada's inability to keep house on his own account do so for mercenary motives that they may continue to wilk the Oanadian cow into their own mouths. We say 'hands off," let Canada declare his iedependence and his futareis safe. The fact that the country is ina state of unrest can nether be-ignored nor denied and the sooner the subject is manfully grappled with the better will it be for all con- cerned. The wave of unrest is rapidly spreading and gathering force. The weeting in Montreal, the greatest city in the Dominion, on Monday last was no hole and corner affair, here were regularly assembled over 8000 of the intelligent: ratepayers of that city where the four positions, viz.:--(1) Remain as we are a British colony. (2) Join an Imperial federarion. (3) Assert jour independence. (4) An- pexation, cast in our ollowing results. There were in all three thousand ballots cast. Of these 1615 voted for independence, 992 for annexation, 364 for remaining as we are, colony of Britian, 29 for Imperial federation. Marriage as it Should Be.

London, Nov, 25..-The Telegraph's correspondent at St, 'Petersburg, seuds an acgount of a horrible crime com witt- ed by peasants. The peasants assembl- ed in the night at the housk of a horse thief whom they wished to punish. The thicf was asleep at the time with his wife and five children. The peasants set fire to the hut and kept watch for the occupants. When "the shrieking inmates tried t0 escape, they were met with frenzied yells from the wretches and driven Lack into the flames with soythes. One of thé inmates was murdered ; all the others were burned to death. ~All the culprits afterwards surrendered in a body'to the police.

Now, a word concerning the report of the committee, They did give a full and impartial hearing to those whose names were on the requisition, but that was not a full or impartial investigation. There were eighteen who bad cowe, each having important evi- dence to give on the case, hut whose evidences were not favoralle to Mr. Leggott, and they were not allowed to speak. If you will notice, the report snys there was nothing proved against Mr. Leggott, In this we cannot say they have said anything wrong, but they have failed to go a little further and state why there was nothing proven. to prove a case there must be at least two evidences sgninst the opposing evidence ; there were three evidences giv en agninst Mr. Leggott, each bear ing on different points, and there were members present who could corroborate | every statement made, but when Mr. Loggott denied the charges brought forward by these three witnesses, the committee were too wise to allow ren of the! unlucky | . thor witnesses to corroborate thority i Mr. i to act ns the latter's chumpion, we will give him at once all the facts (not rumors) of this case ; otherwise we shall treat hin with the contempt he so well deserves. Thanking you, Mr. Editor, for your kind forbearance in allowing me so much space, I remain, Yours very truly, R. THOMPSON. Seacrave, Nov. 29, 1892. Mr. Editor,--If you are not already wearied with the pumerous and vol- uminous letters which have been for- warded to you from this vicinity I would regard it a favor if you would insert the inclosed observations.-- To oue who is acquainted with the facts il is & scource of amusements to read " Nimrods" assertions, First, he says "those who are talking most are not respectable citizens."

A bulletin issued by the Bureau of Industries gives some interesting par- ticulars regarding the estimated yield of crops in Ontario this year. The statement is not particularly encouraging, however, showing as it does an all round failing off compared with 1891. For instance the estimated yield of fall wheat per acre is putat 21.2 bushels per acre for 1892 as agamst 25.7 for 1891 ; spring' wheat is given at 12.7 for 1892and 21 for 1891: barley at 24.6 and 29.2 ; oats at 34.8 and 40.8 ; rye at 15.7 and 16.7; and peas at 18.7 and 24.4. In the case of potatoes there has been even a greater drop, the yield per acrein '92 being given at 84.3 as against 150.1 for "91. Evidently mur- phies will command high' figures this Year, Taking the total yield it is found that 1,400,000 bushels Jess of fall wheat was harvested this year than last ; that in spring there was a drop of 2,600,000; y in barley of 4,000,000; lin oats of 11,0 00,000; in peas of 4,000 1000 and in potatoes of Sy, 12,000. 000 bushels. Cut Down the Exemptions. "The value of Property exempt from taxation in the City of Torouto is $23,214, 000, or one-seventh of the total realty. A large part of this is represented by church property held by corpora- tions, well able to pay taxes. These corporations as a rule aré wealthy and take the choicest sites for their buildings, and buy extra pro- perty for speculative purposcs, simply because they can hold it without pay- ing taxes, The system is an unjust one. The Presbyterian may be taxed to make up the deficiency caused by the ex empition of the Baptists, or vice versa ; ora man who does not go to either may be taxed on account of both. Government buildings and factories, especially the latter, are entitled to these exemptions. These more than make up for the special privileges in the taxes paid by those employed, the enhansed value of real estate, and the increase in local trade, but everything else from a cathedgal to a hen coop should pay its share of the taxes. As an instance of the way in whick the exemption works, take two of the city churches. The people of St. Audrew's prepare to move, The pro- perty on which the church stands was bought at a comparatively cheap rate. For all these years it has boen exempt from taxation.
