Other qualifications apply to residents of the towns; these apply to those of the country. Itmust not be forgotten that
while there is to be but one Legislative
Chamber there are to be two classes of electors, and that these two classes are curiously intermixed. Thus the owner of a lot of land belongsto both classes, and can vote for both “ Legislative Council-
man” and “Assemblyman.” Bit no matter how intelligent or influential he may be, the man who does not own or possess a bitof land must vote only for is thus
giveu a political advantage over another
the “ Assemblyman.” One brother
brother. Clergymen, teachers, pro- fessore, editors, merchants, clerks — all who have not taken the pre-
caution to obtain the ownership of a
bit of land, lie under a political dis- ability. Read in connection with the Die franchisement Act and the Gerrymander
Act, this invidious provision must ensure the Opposition of every man who possesses a spark of the spirit of Liberalism. The Government which hag placed such acts upon the statute book as these which have been printed in pamphlet form, cannot possibly exiet in a liberal community.
The two-thirds clause reads as follows:
“No change shall hereafter be made in the proportion of Councillors whe sball sit in the Legislation Assembly or in the qualification of electors entitled to vote for sach Councillors unless such change be agreed to by at least two-thirds of the members of the Legislative Assembly for the time being.”
It will readily be seen that there is nothing whatever to prevent a majority of the Legislature from repealing this clause, and, after that, making any change in the constitution of the Legislature which public opinion may demand and a majority of the Legisloture accept.
oe NOTES AND COMMENTS.
-According to the fifth statistical report of the Inter-State Commerce commission, just submitted, the total railway mileage of the United States last year was 171,
miles, being an inerease oe the year of 3,160.78 miles. The tota number of employes in the service of rail- ways wae 821,415, being an increase of 37,130 over the previous year, The capital- ization of the 162,397.30 miles covered by the report was $10,226 718,134. Tota! number of passengers carried, 560,958,211. Gross earnings, $1.171,407,343. Operating expenses, $780,997,996. The number of railway employes killed waa 2,554, being Jess than the number killed during the previous year. The number of empioyes injured, however, was in excess of the number injurea during the previons year,
being 28,267.

—The satisfaction in England at the carrying of reasonable resolutions by the majority attemiing the recent Sanitary Congress is mace intelligible by the action of the authorities in Spain during the last few weeks. Reports were published at Madrid that cholera was raging in London, Manchester, Liverpool and Newcastle-on- Tyne, and official measures were taken by the publication of royal decrees issued by
the Home office to protect the city and country from any danger from this imaginary infection. A quarantine of
fifteen days was imposed on all arrivals from the port of London. The regions sround the other cities to the extent of 100 miles of coast were also put under the ban. This excess of precautior, which well in- formed people in Spain know to be need- less, has caused a3 much loss to commerce as if a real epidemic were at the doors.

It is worthy of note that the new vice- roy of India is by birth a Montrealer. His Lordship, the Earl of Elgin was born on the 16th of May, 1849, at Monklands, | near Montreal then the residence of the Governor-General.
The Minister of Marine and Fisheries has received a telegram from British | Columbia etating that the total catch of
seal ekine by 52 schooners which have ar- rived reaches the large number of 66,733. One vessel is yet to return.
In the United States the Western dis- tilleries are starting to work again in face of a strong demand for their product. It is evidently taking a lot of whiskey to | drown the trouble our neighbors have | fallen into this year of 1893.
A depatch from Chicago reports that the general committee recently appointed to consider the question of keeping the | Fair open after this month has practically | decided in favour of doing so as long as the weather will permit and as Jong as people come in sufficient numbers to make a profit.
The British Board of Trade returns show that the British exports to Canada decreased 18.52 per cent. in September, and increased 3 per cent. in the nine months of 1893. The British imports from Canada decreased 6.65 per cent. for the month and 17.4 for the nine months. Canada sent less cattle, sheep, bacon, lame, butter, cheese, eggs, fish and wheat than she did last year.
President Palmer, of the World’s Fair, seriously proposes to take up a subscrip- } tion for the Duke of Veragua. The sac cexs of the last days of the great show is apparently turning ithe managers’ heads. Outside of being a descendant of Colum- bus the Duke’s chief c!sina iv distinetio: is said to be as a breeder of fighting bulls. Neither ground affords a very strong claim for public aid in a year when toil- ers are crying for bread.

The London cable reports that things are shaping themselves for the restoration of the monarchy in Brazil. The difficulty in believing this is that there is no monarch to restore. Dom Pedro is dead; his daugh- ter is unpopular, and to introduce a for- eign prince would be to ensure a succes- sion of Da Fonsecas and Peixotos and Mellos who would maintain a perpetual revolution. Brazil has stepped from order into disorder, and must fight her way through to order again under some form ofa republic.

THE KIND OF WOMAN TO KNOW.
The woman with a loving heart is sure to look upon the bright side of life, and by her example induce others to do so.
She sees a good reason for all the un- weleome events which others call bad luck. She believes in silver linings, and likes to point them out to others.
A week of rain or fog, an avalanche of unexpected guests, a dishonest servant, an unbecoming bonnet, or any other of the thousand minor inflictions of everyday life have no power to disturb the deep calm of her soul.
The love-light is still in her eyes,whether the days be dark or bright. conquers the grim old uncle and the dye- peptic aunt. The crossest baby reaches out its arms to her, and is comforted.
Old people and strangers always ask the way of her in the crowded street. She has a good word to say for the man or woman who is under the world’s ban of reproach. Gossip pains her, and she never voluntarily listens to it.
Her gentle heart helps her to see the reason for every poor-sipner’s misstep, and condones every fault. She mright not serve with distinction on the judge’s bench but she is a very agreeable person to know.

We | prefer dealing directly with the grit candi- dates, as the necessity of obtaining a cer- tificate from the supervisor is dispensed with, A cheque on the bank or goods will be taken for the work, as before. Can you tell us, Mr. Editor, if there is any obligation, moral or otherwise, on a per- son to vote grit because he had a job ploughing up the road; also please state if @ man 20 years of age is prohibited by abe ant from working for pay on the road.

Hamirox, Ont., Oct. 13.—In the drill hall this evening,the Canadian Club, in celebration of the anniversary of the battle of Queenston heights, gave an entertain- ment, of which the leading feature was a patriotic address by Sir Oliver Mowatt, Ontario’s premier. Sir Oliver’s address occupied less than half an hour in delivery, but every line of it breathed for Canada. Said he: “i presume you, as I, do not want annexation. You areas giad as I am that Canada is still part of the British empire; to know that all British history 4s.our history, and that the patriots, statesmen, soldiers, poets and philosophers of the old land still belong to us as well as to every other portion of our mighty em- pire. That a change wil! come is certain, but the absence of any satisfactory scheme has prevented that change hitherto.”
