Much Canaii refuses to be governed by the rules of the North american United caledonian association. When or. Dimuro visited Montreal or. Mclennan declined competing unless he was allowed to throw his own Way swinging the and con the Competition Between Dinnio and Mclennan did not take if by the foregoing or. Kcf ribbon Means to say that the fact of my not contending against or. Dinnie in Montreal on the 1 1th August 1870, was owing to my refusal to be governed by the rules of Tho n.a.u.c.a., 1 can Only state that at that Date there no Siti h in Chi Alenco. Tho body to which to refers was not Ovon organized until the list Day of August Tho meeting of Tho Lith August was the Only occasion upon which or. Dinnie and i met in Montreal. In aug Tibt 1872, i met that gentleman in Tor onto. On that occasion 1 did compote under Tho rules of Tho association and was Victor with Tho heavy Hammer. Or. Nie then approached to and requested me us n favour not to compote with the Light Hammer against him Asho had been promised a handsome sum for coming there provided lie was successful. To pointed out Tome that Tho prize Oil ored was of no moment to Ino und 1 granted his request and abstained from Competition with Tho Light Hammer. Or. Fleming who was also unprofessional from Scotland was one of the competitors pm that occasion. I Oan Only Sny that 1 will be much obliged to or. My Clibbon or any other gentleman who will mention an instance in which i at. Ended a meeting with the View of taking in the games and refused to be bound by Tho rule.-, Laid Down for Tho governance of those Gainus. I never did n thing. For Tho last twelve years 1 Tivo never willingly sought an Opportunity of display ing my strength and skill in athletic sports. In Overy occasion on Ubich i have appeared it has been in of solicitations and appeals n mounted j May say to Force.

Milk Cornwall May in the meat. From Tho Lotie. A striking commentary Ori the history of american exports in 1 Livili Muai is contained in Tho i turn is Siul a parliamentary paper. In its eight Page arc comprised a number of facts which butchers As Well As h will do Well to Ponder Over with care. Tho most notable of them All is perhaps an account of the actual weight of meat imported the slates during the year statistics of each month arc Given by which it appears that m both january and february almost exactly cwt. Of Boef fresh or slightly were brought Over from Tho states to British ports. In May notwithstanding the higher temperature Tho total was cwt., and although in the next month it Sank to it recovered instantly mounted to 7, in and from that time Forward Advt ipod at a tremendous rate until it attained Tho maximum for Tho year in november when above cwt. Wore imported. The value of Tho meat increased at the same time from i in january to nearly 000 in november when Tho whole imports of fresh beef from other countries wore valued at less than in these statistics it is True that the absolutely fresh Moat imported by the new process cannot be distinguished from some of Tho salted Moat. But Tho Advance has been no doubt almost entirely in Tho murmur description and the revolution in Tho butchers Trado which must Liao been effected is apparent at a glance. Tho increase in tinned Moats described in the return As Moats preserved otherwise than by is almost a conspicuous. They Are estimated at a Little Over for january and at in december the a Saluo having within this period advanced from to Tho growth in the importation of Mutton is not by any Means so notable in fact it is hardly appreciable in Tho account although during Tho present year it is Well known that am Erica has begun to extend the system to Mutton As Well As beef. The key to Tho a Volo Story is to be found partly in Tho new process which Lias led to Tinioso astonishing results and also in Tho tables which show that Tho average Price of beef during Tho whole year is id. A Pound in new York and about a Farthing loss in Philadelphia. This compares with a average of about at Hamburg 5jd. At Copenhagen and 8d, in Holland.
