THI It it at least gratify ing. to know that the late storm waa not a product of Canadian anil. It waa loru in Texas, waxed Cat iu the middle states and immigrated to this lonijstiQerinx coun- try in aged fury. Will the Texans kindly have some little regard for our feelings aud keep its blizzards at home. ADVANOJ Harty. (Reform) won Kingston on Monday by a majority of 400. The result in West Algoma is not. yet known. Proton "Our northern districts" is the title of a pamphlet just issued by the Com- missioner of Crown Lands. It con- tains a great quaut.ty of interesting aud instructive matter relating to the great northern expanses of territory awaiting colonization and settlement. The book contains a valuable map allowing the townships that have al- ready been opened for settlement in Al- goma and Nippising. The mineral i esouice* are dealt with as well as the agricultural and all information necessary te intending settlers given. The book ia opportune, for, aa the in- troduction aays, "It i.elear that there bag set iu a reaction from that rush to the civics which Las characterized the last fifteen years. It now looks probable that many of the cities on the continent will Lave difficulty in maintaining their own populations, and will not for some time to come be ablo to absorb the surplus popula- tion produced by the country diatr'cU, to say nothing of foreign imuiigra- i...n." It therefore becomes absolute ly necessary to oolouize these lands, to the uortli, which are known to be fertile and productive, and capable of sustaining the surplns, no matter how great, for years to come. Wo take pleasure in recomineuding this pam- phlet to any interested party, more particularly as it is an advunco alonjj the lines advocated in these columns from limr to time iu the past. The Advance believes that Canadians have, aa yet, scarcely begun to enter upon the grand heritage wl'ieli is within their grasp. THE ANONYMOUS WRITER.
