Your consitant readers are to be congratulated or the possession of such a news medium."‘ Mr. W. Carlyle, Inspector of Public Schools for the County of Oxford, writing from Woodstock, Ont., on the 1lith instant, to the Editor of this journal, says : â€""* Deazr Siz,â€"Toâ€" day, some friendly comfrere, I suppose, sent me a copy of yo;xr paper, containing articles on the educational difficulty in your city. But It has often been asserted, since Mr. DeBoucherville was called upon to form a Government for the Province of Quebec, that be and his colleagues were but keeping warm the Tressury benches for the heroes of the T.ainâ€"ries Land Swap. While the elections were pen ling, and there was a prosyect that such an asser tion, if received w th credence, would have its legitimate effect upon the minds of the mase of the people, the Conservaâ€" tive press stoutly denied that their new leaier was capable of. being a party to iny such unworthy game. Yet how soon has the very fresult which the Liberals ant‘cipated come to pass. Mr. Nuimet,. w» are informed, is to be elevated to the Cuiâ€"{ Superintendency of Education for the Province, and Mr. Chapleau to his old portolio as Solicitor General. Here we bave four members of the Ouimet Ad mini«<<ration, (Messrs. Fortin and Robertâ€" s m included, of course.) provided with grod it berths. Just let something beâ€" done jlor Mr. Archambault, and who of the [.ind Swap Government is left out in the colid,? As to Messrs. Archambault ani Chapleau, we should say a grateful cointry owes them very little more thain they already have; their share of â€" the â€" Tanneries â€" plunder might we!l «erve them : but when oms of the principals in that infamous transacâ€" trom has been reinstated in the Cabinst, wh it good reason can there be for exclud ing the other? Truly, the people of our siâ€"t&or Province are fortunate in regard to the men who rule them ! JC x 0 Â¥ A L WWe Tinws. a~1â€"Brinsley M. Waiton Our esteemed contemporary, the Monâ€" treal Gazefte, was justly inlignant over the Land Swap, and as justly condemned those who had a hand in it. Of course the Gazettehad before been visited with qualms in regard to the proceedings of some of its friends in the Dominion Government upon a memorable occasion, a1d, conâ€" science stricken, had admitted that a prima facie case was made out against them. Unfortunately, this condition of mind did s0%, in that instence, very long . prevail, and when the Gazeffe swooped: down upon the Land Swappers with all the violence of a furious, oloodâ€"thirsty eagle, people were curious to know what the end would be. As might have been naturally expected, that end was rather disapointing. For a little time there was a very bitter leeling between the Gazefie and the Mincrce, the latter branding the former, if we rightly recollect, as a religâ€" ijous zealot, and opposed to the interests of the French people of Quebec. It was rather a difficult position to be in, and our contemporary quietly extricated itself by claiming thet while opposed to the Land Swappors, it saw no reason why the OQTTAWA, FRIDAY, JAN. 21, T1E NEWSPAPER TO READ.

Dr. Tache takes up one of.the | most recent of these criticisms as the . foundation of his remarks At the last . meeting of the Toronto Board of Trade, the | substance of what has grown. to be old charge was formulated, and thus reported . in the newspapers :â€"" The census of 1851 "showed that the wheat produced had. ‘ ©amounted to 13,756,493 bushels. The * census of 1861 showed 27,540,215 bush: C els, and the census of 1871 only 16,300,â€" } * (W), or 11,000,000 léss than that proâ€" "duced in 1861, and only one million " more than that produced in 1851. ‘The " English Statistics contained in . the " Blueâ€"book of 1868 estimated the pro " duction in Canada & 36,365,000 bushels, * or 20,000,000 more than was shown by ’ " our census of 1871. ‘These facts proved that there was not a proper |system| of " taking gtatistics at the present ti.n+e." Dr. Tache objects to the mode! of reasoning by which the conclusion is arrived â€" at that "there | is not a " proper system of taking statistics at the of 1868 were correct, that would be no proof of the inaccuracy of our own Canaâ€" dian census ; for, he contends, it has been shown that a diminution in the quantity: of grain produced often takes place, even in growing countries. He gives one inâ€" stance in which this happened, * The " wheat crops of Lower Canada," he says, ‘ present time," and maintains, even if those provided by the English Blue Book Book of 1868 :â€" " in testing the accuracy of the returns of 1861 and 1871, I shall take th~ provâ€" inces of Ontario, Quebec, Nova Sootia and New Brunswick as a unit, and reduce the quantities of wheat flour into bushels, at the rate of five bushels of the raw grain from the field to the barrel of flour. Not to give to the figures a semblance of preâ€" ciseness whigch such operations can no where assume, [ shall also, in the aggre~ gate sums coptaining millions, quote the tens of thourands in round numbers. Lhe criterion rmn applied will consist in uoomin::.g. by means of the Customs reports, q_um imported and ex ported and, mbog:: ascertained .n‘;} accepted the i wheat, to lish the balance to u com~ pared with ::mump. The wheat crop of 1860 is said in the Census of 1861 to have amounted (in %{o«r Provinces) to 27,866,635 busiels. same for 1870, is CENSUS STATIS1ICS. not form and giyen in the Cenaus of !871, as having proâ€" dueed 18,723.87 3 mshels,. â€"The impoi s of wheat (and flour equivalent) is stated, at tha Customs tohave been 7,210,000 bushels in 1860â€"61. . ‘The exports 0/ thea | same to have amounted . to 13,420.000 ‘ bushels for the same year. _ The imports | of wheat (and flour equivalent ) of 1810»71 | are _ stated â€" at_ 13,370.000 _ bughels. | ‘The exports of the same at 9,000,000 | bushels. The above quotrm~d census t : ures show an apparent d {lerence in the ‘ wheat crop of the year I8STQO s compared | with the year 1800, of 11,i49 080 bushels | against 1870 71 _ The cust>ms refurns show for the year iNs% ol an exopes of exportation of whest. over imporfation amounting_to_6,200,000 bushels, ard for the year 1370 71 an excess of importation onl‘ exportation amounting to £,340,000 bushels ; the aggregate «ifference being (adding the surplus of 1861 to the deficit of 1871) 10,550,000 bushels against 1871. That there was a shortness of wheat crops in 1870, as compared with the crops of 1860, is here mude evident, and the cenâ€" sus returns of 1871 are, so fur, sustained. Npeaking to men acquainted with the past and present couditions of our marâ€" ket, I need not go to the trouble of proving that, if instead of over exporting we have over imported wheat in 1870 71, it was simply. ‘because . we . wero in need of it ami had not. enouch of our own growth tor our home suppties. _ Phe grand total of census returns and imports, in 1860â€"61, amogated _ to 33070 00 . bushels. _ Thso yrind to al of cctsu« returns and imports, of cens amognt pirienid t in 18i0 of cemsus returns ancdimports, in 100Uâ€"01, iamogated _ to 33.070 OV . bushels. _ Ths yrind to al of cctsu« returns and imports, in 1807 !, amouated to 30,090,000 bushâ€" els. _ Deduction mads of the expoits, the! stated _ balanes _ ot 18060â€"61 amaonted to 21,6 0, 000 bushels. Deduction mude of the exports, the stated of 1870 71 amounted to 21,090,000 To test the relative accuracy of the census returns of both years, it remains to estavlish the amount of home consump< ton. The ordivary quantity of wheat awimitted to be suiticient tor the home cousumption ot people, under dietary circuinstances similar to ours, is put at tive bushels per heaa of the population ; this figure incluues food, seel, wasts and the keeping up ot stock : hwwever, to be n the safe side of my argzumentation, I will add one bushel per heal, and caleu Jate the boms absorption at the rate of gix bushels per head ot the p»pulation which may not be absurdedly high. ‘The pulation of the four Provinces ceunted ,0~0.56l in 1861 ; the quantity of wheat bsorbed must have amounted therefore: o about 18,540,000 bustels. ‘The popula ion of the four Provinces counted 3,483,~ i6l1 in 1871; the quantity of whest hsorved must therefore have amounted o about _ 20,910,000 _ bushels. _ The [balanee _ left, , according to customs jand ceneus reiurns of 186l, as estabâ€" .|liâ€"hed heretofore, was 35,070 000 bushels ; Icouloquoudy there are 3,110,000 bushels ‘)not accounted,jfor, neither abroad nor at i'home, in 1861. The balance left, accordâ€" |iug to custors and census returps of | 187 1,was 30,090,000 bushels ; consequently ‘q.hon are ouly 130,000 bushels not acâ€" ; counted for in 18il. The logical, the :‘ unavoidable conciu«‘on to be drawn from |‘this study of the «question, by ordinary ‘ method of _ sti istical _ criticiam, is «‘that the w eat crop _ census _ reâ€" | tmrms _ of 1861, are apparently exâ€" |aggerated to an amount which may | be estimate i at about 3,000,000 busheis. ‘The wheat crops census returns of 1871 I are apparently correct, the Lbalance unâ€" | accounted for being absciutely insignifiâ€" | cant.

Moreâ€" over, no alteration in the terms, could reverse the comparative result, which show that, of the two census, the census otf 1871 is the most accurate ; and that its statement of the wheat crops is susâ€" THE COLLEGIATEINSTITUTE BOARD.

Haliburton, advocating the giving of a bounty on coal exported from Nova Sootia to the United States equal to the duty charged by the latter, the following passage occurs :â€"" The grant of a bounty would prevent the necessity for cantinuâ€" ing a bounty, for it would neutralise the object of the duty, and would lead to its repeal.‘" By "the object of the duty," q;‘parontly, he means protection t» Peunâ€" sylvania producers. â€" But suppose the United States Government should take a sharper view of tie matter that, and should determine »»ther to increase their duty so as to kee;_it always sufficiently greater than e Canadian bounty to insure the desired protection ? Besides, Uncle Sam would by the operation obtain a little help to his treasury from the Dominion pocket. b The letter in question seems to be rather " smart,‘‘ but let us be thank{ul that the writer is not our Minister o!
