" The new Treaty of Reaciprocity is as yet only in the forma«tive process, and awaits the action of those legis!s‘ive bodies: waich have a voice in its pegouation and ratification. Meast me its projpused terms . are undergoing that ordeal of crit:icism to which all poblic measures are »ubjected in ‘ tree countries like our ¢=n. Tusat the m- | eral welfare of the country, and in partiouâ€" lr the agricultural interest, w.ll be proâ€" moied by a fiir T‘reâ€" ty of Reciprocity there gan be no doubt, a0d in all ciscussions on this subject it ought to be borne in miad that the greatest good to the greatest num» ber is the object of all wise legislation. 1t will be difficult, if not impossible, to frame a Treaty whieh will not eflect «ome indiâ€" vidual apd local interests uaf«rorably, but the question involves the general prosperity of our country, and surely that ;.il‘s'no bâ€"st secured by an open market ween Canada and the Jnited States, Hence the g:npecv. of renewed Reciproâ€" city »hould be bailed with plea=ure by vhe people at large, and by coue ssore heartily than by the far wers ot the land." Now, if these expressions in the worthy Sheritt‘s oration had contained the senti» ments which the Mar! specially considered worthy of" being beeded, we would be bound to give it credit for having sequired some common sense and a litile judgmâ€"nt, and to believe that it was not altogether ijnsensible to the rea\ in‘loreouC: the peos ple of Canad«, But the Tory{organ does not â€" believe . in â€" the e, â€" and therefore ° can _ scarcely . bo* expect ed to " bear in mind that the «â€" greatest good to the greatest number is " the object of all wise legisiation.". In trith there is uo doctrine in existence in whick the Mail and its disciples have lees faith ~ With true Tory instinct, it and they entertain the most profouad conâ€" tempt for the swin‘ish multitede,. The favoured with their b1g heads, clumday feet, dirry,. mud.bespattered boots, ungetleâ€" manly looking clothes, and homely, rough and ready manners, are entirely beneath their consideration. _ | et our agri -ulmn, triends take notice th:! nover a single Tory organ, never un uppouent of the pro. posed Treaty, has spcken or written of our agricultural interest except to say that hey were of secondary importance. ‘) heir time and attention has been monopolized by the kidâ€"gloved gentry, who bave already made a good few dimes, and who want not "ooly to see the farmer excluded from the ‘benefits of reciprocity, but to fill their cof,, fers with his hbatdâ€"won earnings, and ;he is appealed to «n the ground of patrit otism to quieily submit to be fsec«d for their benafit, | ‘There is an attemapt being made to hood.wink the farmers on this point. to make them believe that the ()p position of the Tory org«ns to the Trenty is based upon the slleged unfairness to the country of some of its clauses. and to in~â€" cite his partizin feeliogs agniost it. . But this policy of ueceit and dissimulation is e ding itself, and it must be every mb‘ more app rent to agriculâ€" turists, as the c ntroversy becomes gradaâ€" ally narrowed down fror, pompous and senpsational generalities to firrt prineiple:» that the battle is being fought, not in their interest©, not in the interests of the greatest number, not in the interests of our progre:s or advancement as a people, but to serve the purposes of a small clique: of whinning speculators and moneyed magnates who have invested some little portion of their means in manufacturing ubder the specious guise of " infant industries,‘"" who want to make the largest profits possible for the smallest [ possible expenditure, snd who bave neither courage nor enterprize enough, with a cheap labour power at their com= mand, to defy competition and boldly | challenge the American producers, or | United States markets, to produce a | better article for the money if they can. Mr, Gibbons oftered a few wellâ€"rimed remarks upon the danger there is of ex» h.usting the producing powers of the soil by too coustant cropping with grein, and ‘ advocalgd a rctation of crops in . order to correct the evil. * Grass and roots," he | says, @"miust alternate with . the * grain if the production of the : wl is to * be maintained." The M»il admits that this is quite true. but thiks something of which the farmer has not yet thougbt is necessary in order to bring about this state of sffars for which Mr, Gibbous conâ€" terds, . And how does it propose to induce those desirable cenditions, . By cropping less acreage, and cultivating and munuring more. thoroughiy the portion which is eropped now quite. . By enbouraging emiâ€" gration, and stocking the labour market with a better and mor» plentiful supply of buman bands, thus enabling farmers to t:ll with greater care and perfection the l1 bourâ€" starved land ?

The aiendance was not so large ms on previous oocasions. Many reasons are assigned for this lixzity on the part 0‘ the farmers of the county of, Russeli. Kuly in the season it had been determined to dispense with this season‘s exhibition altogether and invest the funds in procuring thorâ€" oughbred stock in the interest of the agricultural community ; this idea was in varn exploded a snort time agoâ€"and a deâ€" ‘gision arrived at to hold an exhibition, but many farmers were unprepared for the ‘tudden change,. Tae unpropitious state of the weather had a good deal to dowith the dimiqution in the n«.d:::a‘ht many who had entered were un to reach the village. The great drouth is attriputed as another reason for the pauâ€" qity in the number of competi tors this year, Notwithstanding all hese desponding circumstances a good number turned out, ‘The usual quiet village was astir. with excitement, fiige Aaunted in the breeze and lads and lasses walked up and down street doaned in holiday attire, bont on seeing what was to be seen and being keen themsei¢ves.â€" _ Mr, Joun Kennedy, the veteran President of the Bociety, .was at his post as usurt;â€" a pluce which be has fully honored for the last seventeen years.
