Sonoc is As an agent her for gentleman of his discretion can to arrange Tho matters of his business that will make this route not Only n pleasant one but to most economical and expeditious of any of Tho modes by which the Canadian Immi Grant can Roach his Homo in Trio far North West. May a Homo despatch says Signor chief inspector of police at to Para showed much Liim Ness against the brigands at the time of the capture of an English subject or. Rose. On the night of Tho 15th Signor House was Des ironed by an explosion of Gunpowder him Al this wife and two sons escaped alive though severely hurl. The House had been secretly undermined. Tot a Wax Axtt. An Ontario contemporary utters a timely warning to those engaged in the liquor traffic to prepare for the arrival of the inevitable Day when their occupation will to abolished by prohibitory legislation. Tho Dunkin act which has been practically a dead letter in Ontario for some years is now being Tho agitation for Tho adoption of its principle is becoming general. A by Law for carrying it into Ell get is shortly to be submitted to the ratepayers of Toronto and its promoters Are very sanguine that it will to carried. Should this exploit be achieved we May reasonably Hope that the moral influence of the Victory would so encourage the advocates of Temperance in other municipalities that the Campaign would become general. This is a legitimate and practical method of testing i he Oft repeated declaration that Tho country is pro pared for prohibition and if a majority of the constituencies thus declare themselves favourable to the principle parliament can not do otherwise than pass a Law in Accord Ance with Public sentiment. A question then in regard to the claims set up by those concerned in Tho liquor tin tie to receive compensation Tor the Legal interruption caused to a business which is now car ried on under Tho special Protection and surveillance of the Law. Whatever the abstract rights of people holding such vested interests May be it is very doubtful whether the victors would be willing to Grant indemnity to those whom they Are accustomed to regard As licensed to kill body and soul when they have after a hard Battle finally put Down what is a generally acknowledged evil. There is at any rate no certainty that any compensation will be forthcoming Aiyub if those interested Tail to read the signs of the and to withdraw their Cap Tal before the sweeping change comes they must like others who speculate upon Uncer Tain grounds be contented to accept the consequences. A Story comes from St. Johns Newfoundland in relation to dark deeds perpetrated on the Remote parts of the past of that Colony it seem that the Frires. Of several wrecked Are known j to have been murdered by persons pursuing the avocation of wrecker and who it is tie commends deep Pilim a the Only dared do not hesitate to show false lights t hat can possibly top tin washing away of along the Shore to Decoy ships set King a j land threatened now with Sperdu de Harbor to inevitable destruction. Has Boon Moro or less confusion at Trio be ginning of every season when the first Ca Nadian boats have brought their heavy loads of freights and their crowded deck loads of passengers. But with Tho Advent of Tho immigration agent or. Sponge to take charge of affairs Horo and his being so thoroughly competent to Havo charge of so irksome a Lino of business we believe that his services will Intro greatly to the advantage of both the immigrants and Tho government lie re presents. Tho people of Chi Luth Havo a special interest in having so capable a per the Ell get of the european War on the Grain product of the i United states has Boon investigated by Tho Bureau of statistics Ami the result is altogether encouraging.

At Las. government has by Tho slow process of red tape discovered the advantages which Init flu grow out of having a local Imrij ration agent stationed at Duluth Wiio could facilitate the travel regulate Tho entries and make himself useful generally to the Canadian immigrants and be of Benefit to Tho Dominion government in their Endeavor to populate their vast pos sessions in the North West. A Duluth and the Northern l acidic route will be the most convenient Road during the period of Navi gation for transit from All Points in Canada to the great wheat District of British Ameri Ca and admirable has been the selection of or. Thomas Spence of Manitoba As the immigration agent of the Dominion govern ment for Trio purposes of his appointment. When the first Canadian Steamer the Ora.

Ii ence the boat was refused permission to land her goods until Tho collector of the District who was located at karmic the would Send a special agent to take charge of the same at thir port. After a Short delay Trio Deputy collector at Superior City was made a special inspector and by virtue of his red tape authority to assumed to take charge of the goods which were ready to be landed by the excited and hot headed Ollices of the Chicora who deemed the delay an in sult almost to the canadians Whoso thoughtlessness brought Thorn to a port where it was unlawful for them to land their goods and which goods had they been landed when the boat first touched the Dock would have been deemed to have been contraband. It was not Long however before our govern ment established a Deputy collector at Duluth who was put in charge of the customs entries while the Surveyor of customs be came a Mero nominal officer and after the Tho passing of the Law making Duluth a customs District with a collector Tho office of Surveyor ceased on the appointment of Tho collector of Tho District.
