No quarantine for cattle imported from Canada is provided, Canada herself maintaining a quarantine for all imported cattle. There has an agitation been commenced with a view to bring ihe whole Ofthe tele- graphic system of the country under the con- trol of the governments of the United States and of Canada. This, it is to bs feared, would be out of the frying-pan into the fire. It would not and could not prevent strikes, while it would so add to the hordes of ofice holders as to give the Governments, for the time being, any amount of opportunity for corruption and wrong-domg. Then the rail- ways would also have to be bought up. Why all this is just what Jay Gould and his con- freres are working for. They hope to make " a big haul " and then they can go in for other ways of money making just as sure and just as oppressive. Government can do some things better than private enterprise can. But other things it cinnot, as all ex- perience makes manifest. We are always rejoiced to get a good hint from any quarter, and it is therefore satisfactory to be told that Captain Webb had been called of God to swim, and that he had therefore accomplished the work for which he was intended and fitted. He must therefore have also been intended to be also unsuccessful in swimming the whirl- pool, and as one working out God's purpose, according to the Rev. Mr. Jefifery, is not to be condemned. Yes, and the rev. gentle- man might have gone further and said no- body, however foolish or foolhardy, is to be condemned, for in doing what he did and failing as he failed, he was carrying out God's purposes. We are afraid it cannot go that length. Still there is a sense in which it may be all true. But in condemning Captain Webb for a headstrong fool may not others be also working out the purposes of Heaven Is it never to be possible to have national disputes settled by arbitration It would seem so, for the strong, the proud and the headstrong will always rebel against the decision if it go against them, while the league formed to enforce the award is al- ways liable to be broken up, and the war which was to be avoided to be precipitated and embittered through the very means taken to obviate it altogether. And yet one can scarcely give up the hope that men and nations will by and by become so wise and be so animated by the principles of good sense and enlightened Christianity as to re- ject with horror the bru*;al butcher plan so long the fashionâ€" of settling disputes by the iuternecine slaughter of multitudes who, busy as the devil is, have never had the shadow of a quarrel, and whose deaths could not in any way contribute to the solution of any possible dillioulty. We hope that the dictum of the Toronto rcaf^istrate "over the Dou,"tothee£fect that parents can be made responsible for the misconduct of their children on the puolic streets will be sustained. Sometning neeos to bo done to put down juvenile rowdyism, and that fpecially among the children or the comparatively well-to-do. Apparently many parents turn their boys to the streets to get quit of them. And how this works anvone can see. There is nothing too bad for th^se bovi to do and say. They have regular pickets to watch for the appearance ot the bobbv, while the parents take their smoke and their ease at their door steps admiring apparently the precocious wickedness ot their young hopefuls. Others who think that pandemonium let loose is not very nice for a quiet neighborhood have to grin and bear it, unless they are willing to quarrel with their neighbors and have their windows smashed and their doorsteps besmeared with filth by the rising glories of Ontario. is this the issue of all our advances in ed- ucation and religious instruction It would seem so. The more's the pity. In England, in the United States, and in Canada the number of business failures is reported to be increasing rapid y, being con- siderably larger during the hal year than for some time before. In the United States theirn market-one of the most sensitive of any in regard to general business activity -is much depressed just now and it may be tlSt the lumber market will show a fall- ing tendency next. Whatever may be the causes of these the effects are always felt ve^severelyinCanada.

Ever since the early days of the administration of the late lamented President Gir field, the iniquitous facts in connection with the Star Route plunder have been known, and attempts have been made to get a legal conviction of the aboundr^, but, aicfed by the^ ^wer of money and cute lawyers, they have escaped scot free, and probably any further attempts will be abandoned. It required months and months before the cases could be brought to trial at all, and twice were the criminals successful in getting the j ury to disagree. What potent influence was brought to bear on some of these jurymen is only sur- mised at. It is now announced that one of them, said to have been almost penniless before, is now building himself a fine house in a fashionable place, and others are giving evidences of much more wealth than they were ever supposed to possess before. The announcement does not surprise many peo- ple, however, as that was about what \tos suspected. The present jury system in the United States is being strongly condemned by many of the ablest and most earnest men of the nation. It is evident, too, that the plan of electing judges and many other leading court otficials by a popular vote is attended, in many cases, with most serious consequences. The remedy must necessarily be applied at some time, and the sooner a sweeping reform is made the batter for the interests of j ustice. im â-  â-  â-  • Tne Scott Act. The only county in this Province where the Scott Act has been put to the practical test is Halton, and there is naturally a great interest felt as to its success or failure by both friends and foes. Recently a conven- tion of the temperance men of the county was held, and from the report of the speeches made and the resolutions adopted it is evi- dent they are reasonably well satisfied with its success, and they have confidence in the law as a prohibotory measure. Of course the very sanguine men who expect great things must be disappointed, but on the whole no important expressions of disap- pointment were heard at the convention. The diffisulties in the way in the start in the enforcement of such a sweeping law are many and discouraging,^ but so far as the Act itself is concerned it 'does not appear to have proved defective to any considerable extent, as a„practical measure, and with a year's experience in regard to its workings the temperance men of Halton strongly re- commend their co-laborers elsewhere to work for its adoption. The experience in the Maritime Provinces is still more valuable. In some parts of New Brunswick the law has now been four years in operation, and the attempt some months ago to secure its repeal in Frederic- ton, the capital city of the Province, was a failure. No more conclusive evidence could be furnished that the great body of the people have been reasonably well satisfied with the results so far. The Scott Act is now in operation in more than one-half of the counties of Nova Scotia and New Bruns- wick, and in the whole of the Provincs ot Prince Edward Island, and while the tem- perance workers are active in pressing for its adoption in other counties, we have no evidence of any thing like a successful movement towards its repeal any where. These facts are worth many theories in re- gard to its practical success. If the friends of entire prohibition are now anxious for practical success their way seems clear in pressing for the adoption of this local option law. It would be somewhat unreasonable to expect Parliament to pass a general law until the present measure has been put to a fair test. If a measure of local prohibition can be made fairly success- ful then it is evident that a general law would be so, for the difficulties in the way of a local law are certainly much greater than of one not so much circumscribed, If it is possible to Jarry a majority of the counties in a majority of the Provinces of the Dominion for local prohibition then it has bsen pretty clearly demonstrated that the verdict of the people is for a general law. The agitation has now reached a stage of great interest to all sides, and the results of the agitation of the next year or two will tell very decisively on what may be locked for in the near future. Boston Bleode. Mr. C. S. Hollis, Veterinary Surgeon Bos- ton, Mass., certifies that he has made the great pain-cure, St. Jacobs Oil, the sole rem- edy in hie practice for horse ailments, and considers it superior to any cure he has known in forty years. He tried the Eame great pain-banisher on himself for rheuma- tism and by which he was completely cured. " Consistency is a jewel," but it does not add to its lustre to see a "consistent" church member make a practice of sitting around on the comers loudly lamenting the alleged violation of the Sunday ordinance, and tnen on a week day take his old shot-gnn and go to another part of town, where it won t dis- turb his family, and blazs away nntU he is tired, regardless of the ordinance that he helped to make, and which was to put a stop to such nu'Sinces.
