A Good Thing.
| ‘Tne Petviot has a very good thing in the ‘shape of an announcement that the Davies Government expended $25,000 more on -'yoads, wharves and bridges in 1878 than _ the present Government spent in 1879. As there was much more work dove on the roads, wharves and bridges in 1879, and the roads were in betier condition than in

Commenting on these estimates, he says that there are ‘‘ unaccountable deviations ” | from the 1879, and adds: ‘‘the men who made these estimates knew We answer there were arrears to pay, of which the Government knew nothing when the estimates were framed, and that the great

was granted to Canada on the greund that rinderpest did not exist in any part of its ter- ritory, aud on the condition that American cattle, which in some localities suffered from rinderpest, should be shut out from Canada. This condition worked badly. It lessened traffic on some Canadian railways. It limited the operations of Canadian cattle buyers, whe desired te purchase cheap animals in the Western States, where cattle are cheap, and put them in Canada for the British market, and it provoked retaliation from the United States Government in the shape of an em- bargo without rhyme or reason on Canadian

late Goveruments, the Patriot gives addi- tional preof of how thoroughly unreliable all his statements are. For instance, he says that two overseers were employed in the jail last year, and puts their salaries down at $628, whilst the public accounts show that only one was euployed (except for ashort time,) and that only $378 was paid He places the salary of Clerk of the Council in 1878 at $800, while $1,200 was actually paid Mr. DesBrisay in that year. The salaries of Messrs. Morrison, and Peter DesBrisay for the same year are put down at $300 less than was actually paid them. He charges the expenditure of 1879 with salary of indexing clerk in the Registry Department $600; whereas only $158.35 was paid for that service ; and $1,500 for clerks, while only $1,000 was paid them.
