We learn from the Presbyterian nowsâ€" paper that on a recont occasion, the Rov. J. G. MacDonell of Toronto, who was ap» pointed to preach, appeared on the platâ€" form fittired in gown, bands and hood. This is an attempt to tickle the modern fancy for novelties by reviving in the Presbyterian church a custoni which arose with the Friars of St.Dominique in the Middle Ages. Dr. Grant might do better to go further back and introduce the garb of tne prophet Presbyterian "coukin‘t go such stuft" and gives us his matured opinion that Mark Twain was incomparably superior to Talâ€" mage both for fun and instruction.

In 1871 he was chosen as the Liberâ€" al Candidate in South Grey against Mr. A. W. Lander. The contest was a keen one, and although deteated, Mr. MeFayden deserved well at the hands of his political friends, having conducted the contest with great vigour and ability. He leayes a land, in 1839. His family emigrated to Canada in 1845 and settled in the county of York. Mr. McFayden entered the University of Toronto in 1959 and having taken the degree of B.

In 1867 he eommenced the practice of his profession at Owen Sound, and rapidly acquired a position of distinetion among his professâ€" fonal brethren. _ Mr. McFayden was a pronounced Liberal and an actiye politicâ€" Bartrister, of Owen Soun1.

Troubles have also sprung up among the Land Leaguers themselves. Parnell is denounced by one section as ruining the League, and Shaw by the other as incompetent to lead, so that it may be confidently anticipated that the end of the Irish embroglio is not far off.

Instead of contributing to increase the revenue in a legitimate way, To c Ns aiis y uo ue s ETecll E ECCC EEVCTTT UUIJ $3,242,000. On the other hand the exâ€" ports of the products of the forest, animals and their products, and agricultural proâ€" ductions amounted to $46,990,000 in 1879, whereas in 1880 these exports reached the large sum of $56,761,000. It will thus at onee be seen wherein lies the wealth of the amtianidioiiftcin bnficec stock argument was that all manufactured goods would be exeluded, that the markets of Canada would be specially reserved for Canadian manufactures. What is the reâ€" sult claimned now by the Finance Minister ? â€"that the N. P. is a grand revenue proâ€" ducing policy, and encourages importations! The new tariff has been as powerless in making Canada a great manufacturing power, as in shutting out the manufactures of other countries. Our exports of manuâ€" factured goods in 1878 was $4,127,000 and in 1880 under a protective tariff only &2 940 naa â€" A_ us & I I vest, there has been an increased demand for lumber, there has been scarcity of bread and meat meross the Atlantic and conseâ€" quently a ready market there for all the products of the farm, and to these eauses must be attributed the prosperity which now prevails, the increased ability of the people to buy and the consequent increasod revenue derived from imports. Moreover, this incroase in the imports shows how abâ€" surd were the claims set up for the N. P. by its advocates. In the antiâ€"N. P. days the WE is . P | of the people. This was clearly shown by |Sir Richard Cartwright. In the first |part of 1876, under a revenne tariff, | the total receipts from customs was $8,835,000, whereas in the correspondâ€" ing period of 1880 the amount reâ€" ceived from the same source under the unâ€" just and oppressive operation of the N. P. ‘ was 08,752,0(I)â€"including $400,000 of taxes on bread and coal. So that with the increased imports of last year a larger reâ€" venue would have been provided under the old tariff than has been abtained by the N. P. The increased revenue of the year has been secured by increasing the cost of the necessaries of life. Under the old revenue tariff the rate of taxation on imported articles ranged from 12 to 15 per cent. Now the total taxation has been raised 6O per cent above what it was before, and the cost of living correspondingly inâ€" creased to every family in the Dominion, Had the N.
