Canada'! egx trade with Great Britain is growing in importance year by year. In three years the trade lias increased from I8B.090 to $503.- "). There are certain points, however, which prevent the business from grow- MX as it should, and the greatest hawback is that tanners do not market their egg* iu a fresh condition. *. tetter received from a Toronto wholesale firm says : "Iu this city last summer thousands of dozens of ,-ggs weie sent 10 the dump, and tens of thousands of dozeui wen- almost iselesu because they reached market (90 old." It is this fact which tends '.0 keep down prices and to discredit .he tuaikct. The circular goes on to *ay."O.ir chief market now foi eggs is IN at Biilain, and it requites care iiid skill to overcome the distance and land the eggs in good order ; but all ait aud skill is vain if the egg is not fresh when it reaches the packer. The volume ol the business is now trge, aud with the co-operation of producers, local dealers aud exporters, it may be indefinitely increased." r'armeis, merchants and shippers liould aeiiouitly consider and profit by these facts, and thus assist in building np and maintaining a solid aarket for this class of exports. In liiis section the egg business is quite Lttnkive aud the above remarks will . v I'ouuJ timely. It ii not known for certain where the Manitoba minority, as they are called, secured the funds to fight their cases through the courts, but there is a suspicion that the source may be found in the revenues derived from the Jesuits' estates iu Quebec, so liberally returned by the Quebec government and sanctioned by the Dominion. Sir Mackenzie Bowell made an im- portant speech in the SenaU on Mon- day, in the course of which he dealt extensively with the Manitoba school question, and wound np his remarks by saying : "I can only say that when the time comes, if it should come, for action by this Government, the people of Canada will find that the present administration are quite piepared to ansnme the responsibility which may fall upon them no matter what the results may be." The Dominion Parliament met on Thursday of last week with the usual formalities, and the debate on the ad- dress has since been the sole order of business. Hon. Mr. Foster is lead- er of the llouse. It is believed that nothing definite will be done on the Manitoba school question until after Manitoba is officially heard from. Nor do we believe that even then the country has anything to fear from this parliament as at present constituted Individual Conservative members throughout tbe country are declaring themselves as opposed to remedial legislation. Dr. Hproule led tbe way, and the three Toronto members have also been heard from to the same effect. THE LATE ELECTIONS. The four elections of last week re- sulted in a heavy blow for McCaithy- lu as tlio special ism of D'Alton Mc- i aitl.y. Many friends of Dr. alouta- no could have wen him defeated u!i pleabiire, hut they could not pi o- , ounce a censure upon him at the -xiat of electing a political puppet nf'er .he stamp of Mr. Jeffrey McCarthy, ml adding an encouraging victory for (he already over-important, Dulton. :'lte result ii> llaldimand was a most ringing rebuke far the latter, and will inobably impress the fact upon his uinJ that he is not the political Na- poleon whiwh he has hitherto imagiu- .1 himself to be. The lessons of last week were, however, not all on one >;dc. Mi Ouimet, who apparently i H n the Conservative show in Ver- lieres, aud Sir. Hibbert Tapper in Auligouish, suffered the defeat of their candidates, but this had no direct bearing on the remedial order, aicau- n, luted on both sides were somniitu-d . it. In Quebec West Mr. Dubell, .udcpcudvut Conservative, defeated Tbtts. MoOreevy by a small majority. A itcouut will be bsld. has now got four news papers two McCarthy ituii, a Conasr vative aud a Reform.

"After all that !iiu bcn Mid, it muni nut be forgotten that the teachur hiu more to do with the auocee* or failure of hi* pupil* than any other. It is hu to ahow to the parents in a courteous manner iho hindrances to progrrs* in their child- ren's way. It ii his to point out faith- ully what is required for success. It is ii* to work up an enthusiasm for know- edge in the homos of the children as well as in school. It ia his lo mike students of his pupils, primarily by buing a student n the true sense hminelf, and secondarily ny holding before them a noblo estimate of life .ui.I it* duties.

It ia hia alao to de- vole hiinii-lf earnestly to work to pre .iarr for each day's lessons, ao that preci- us time be not wasted in vague generali- ties or empty Ulk, to plan out before lianil hi* work so that dead uuiutcresliug Tacts be clothed io living reality and the interest of hia pupils thereby necurud. It ia his supreme duty and pririlege to teach pupil* to think to think logically, mi tinuously and persistently on any subject. In so far aa he can do this, and only so, in he succeasfnl.
