AB the question of tuberculosis in eattle becomes better understood, the case is getting clearer every day that the government will have to legislate thereou in some way for the protection of farmers and the country in general from its evil effects. At present there appears to be no regulations governing the matter, and farmers are not obliged to slaughter affected animals or even apply a test to prove the ex- istence of the disease, and the govern* ment will not do it. More than a month ago officials of the Ontario government were notified that the dis- ease exists near Flesherton and a por- tion of a diseased lung exhibited to them, bat have utterly failed to act in any way npou the suggestion, and while hero investigating the cares of crgotic poisoning refused oven to visit the suspected herd. They promised to supply tuberuliue to our local vet- erinary for testing purposes, but have failed to do even that. Are they afraid that these oases will be traced to animals purchased at the Ontario Agricultural College, or is it only Utter indifference as to whether or not the disease spreads in this district ? The fint hypothesis is most probably correct, but that is no reason why owners of cattle affected with tubercu- losis, or inspected cattle, should not have the matter attended to in proper form. Prompt action in such cases is absolutely necessary, and is fteely ac corded by governments of other coun- tries, who sec the vital necessity of each action. In the case mentioned the anthoritien have utterly ignored it, and the owner is at perfect liberty to deal with the animals as ho sees fit. The government should certainly cm- power the shughter of affected ani- mals, reimburse the owners in some degree, and provide for proper inspec- tion and testa throughout the country Some such Irgielatiou an this would better serve the iuterc-ts of the couu try than the government's etcrna tinkering with the Municipal Ac and other unimportant measures.

Wheu >M*ini( through our Urge aalearomiM they rere much pleased with everything they law, and it watt here an incident took ilaco which, no doubt, they never forgot. I few of us resolved to ivo Madame ti'Fhuth a memento of her M.III to Mr. i a warehouse. In a very fw minutes about five pounds was raised and a very ine double damask tab'e cloth, 2t yards y 4 yanli, the size required to dine a zeii, and a dozen of full M/ napkins to natch, w& jiresi-nti'd to Madame Kmuth. fl.ii was a trying time tnr the patrot. I remember it well. I tee the spot where t took place, just at the end of my own desk a desk occupied fur twelve year* and I see every one that was then pres- ent, and I almost foul ths kindly gr*ip of KowutliH hand, as, with tears running down his cheeks he thinked UH for the gift, expressing the desire that the time might come when he could entertain UH by haviiiK ua dn.e with him in Hungary from the tablecloth which we had pre- sented to hi- dear wife. I afterwards bad the pleasure of diuing with them in Mr. li't house, aiui the variust pathos with which be spoke about his " beloved Hungary " is still fn.li in my memory. The dinner party was small, Mr. U. and his wife, Kossuth and hi* *ife, the cash- ier of the establishment and myself. Sad to have to add, all are now dead but your humble servant. Over forty years xeems a long time, but while memory I-IK'S these scenes shall always be n-nu-n.l <-u <1. "Time but the imiiretiloo deeper makes, As stream* their chanui-U il.-i-i . r wear." Little did I think at the time referred t.. that I would ever write of these happy days in a place so remote and so little thought of at that time. M. Artemesia, Apnl 2, 1894. i ii i i A lurnd Our Laws. To the Edit r of the Mu. EDITOK : The internal defects in our laws, and the dire results of their op- eration, were touched upon recently in your valu tble journal. It was thown that the law in many instances was burdensome and oppressive, and that it militated against the poor litigant. The main cause <f these regrettable results was nhown to be the constant appeals from court to court OD technical i|Uiobles to which lawyers have a constant recourse, presumably for three reasons, viz.: a desire to advance the interest* of his client, to e.<taMi>h. himself as a clever lawyer, or to drag out the suit so that his [lockets will not suffer. Apparently many of the laws were .made and numerous courts es'.ahluhvd in the interest of tha legal uroleasimi. If tlu-y were designed for the benrlit <>f thu sub- ject they at leant in many instance* do not work to his advantage, unloss hu IK- fab- ulou*ly wealthy. A awe in point c-nin.- from Thornbury, where a pour man with his vessel was detained 8 days in the har bor by a drift of logs owned lumber king. The uia.i asked ftiUOdauiagi-tt, ninth were not excessive, l mt which he was denied with an invitation to stand a suit on it. Of course thia ouded the matter, as thu man wss not any too wealthy. Unquest- ionably he would have won eventually, perhaps after dinsapnting ninny tiiiu-s the ami-tint of suit. The lumber king prob- ably knew that this course would termin- ate tl.e matter, and the law courts con- done ni.il f i ter such processes of robbery. \Vu have legislate >rs who are lauded to the skies as gtviit lawyers and statesmen, who have not seen these many evils in connection witii the aJministration of the law, and who take credit to themselves for a state of affairs which does m-t exist. \Vi ha\ e a case here in our own m uh- b -i hood which sadly denioiis'raU'S the ui- etticieuoy of thu law as a medium of jus- tice.

Dr. Smith report* that as soon as the food in changed the animals speedily recover. " The matter was also brought up in tho Dominion house by Dr. Landerkin, and was replied to by Hon. Mr. Foster, who said that about a month ago Dr. Sproule, member for East Grey, sent in a report with a diagnosis of the sympt ins of the disease among cattle in that county, un- doubtedly the same as referred to by Dr. Laiulerkin. The letter was immediately referred to Professor Andrew Smith, of Toronto, chuf veterinary inspector of the Department of Agriculture for the pro- viuce of Ontario, with instructions to make an immediate investigation and re- port. Prof. Smith replied that be had had a previous notice of the disease referr- ed to, and stated that he had been in CiimmunicatioD, both personal) / and by letter, with veterinary surgeon t practis- ing in relation to such di*.;asj. He re. l>"i.-d that the disease wi.s confined to tho limbs and fret, and that it was due to local cauoea. He said he had been exam- inn g the provender, and had in that dis- covi red the probable cause, namely, gangrenous ergotism. He added that there was no cause for alarm and that he would make further investigation and report. One Bnndred Dollars Beward.
