It seams not *t all unreasonable that then should be tri-weflkly wait communication between Victoria and the principal communities on the Mainland, and the resolution moved in the .House on Monday by the Member for this city, was consequently in the right direction. But tHis by no means coven the whole grounds. Indeed it is questionable whether it really touches the most vital points at all. The slowness and irregularity' with which the mails between these two points are carried ii a matter loudly calling for remedy; Just look at it. The Enterprise leaves Victoria nt 8 o'clock in. the morning, and seldom reaches her before 5 o'clock in the evening. More often it is 5:30 and even 6 o'clock before alia arrives. Occasionally, by way of varying the monotony of the thing, it is 6:3 when she gets in. Now, we submit that from nine to ten hours to make sixty-five miles is utterly unreasonable. From six to seven knots an hour is a rate of speed that would not be tolerated anywhere; and why should it be submitted to here ? The inconvenience of this snail steam service to business men having cot respondent to attend to, and ull persons having goods to receive, must be sufficiently obvious. The tiresomeness of it to passengers need not be dwelt upon hem It is to be regretted, therefore, tlint this grievance was not embodied iu the resolution. We observe, from the pub lished reports of debates, that it was verbally jiotlced * but it ought to have been set forth in the document itself, But the greatest desideratum of all is undoubtedly tlie extension of the subsidised ocean mail service to the Mainland; aud this seems to have been overlooked altogether. We regret this exceedingly. One of the most important duties of the representative of this Bis trict in the Federal Parliament will be to urge upon tho Dominion Gov eminent the justice and the desii* ableness of extending the main ocean mail service to this port; and his hands should be strengthened iu every possible way in the petfor manca of that duty. Will it strengthen his bands to have an address coming from the Legislature, moved by our own Member, asking the Government to give us triweekly mail communication with Victoria j and not even alluding to tho more important matter I Will the arrival of such au address not have the very opposite tendencyT We are very apprehensive that it will. While, therefore, giving full , oredit for good intentions, we cannot help repeating that the address did 1 not cover the whole ground, em- , bracing efficiency of inland service 1 and extension of ocean service.

The working men, whate'er the task, Who carve the stone or bear the hod, They bear upon their honest brows The royal stamp and seal of God; Aitd worthier are their drops Of sweat Titan diamonds on a coronet, God bleu the noble working man, Who rear the cities of the plain, Who dig the mines, who bulfl tbo ships, And drive the comineroejjrf the main, God bless them; for their tonihg hands Have wrought the glory of all lands. A Pretty Widow with nCilass Bye The prettiest, widow in all this great metropolis is a lennm-and-lily blonde, ranging only from five to eight inches in thickness and proportionately small in width, with no mure than eighteen years to her age, and enough of a fortune tn allow ef doing just as she pleases about marrying again. I was in her party at the Madison Square Theatre the other night, and we were weeping more or less over the sorrows of "Esmeralda." Allowing for the hearty dinner which I knew the widow had eaten, there couldn't have been room in her thin figure for a great amount of emotion; and when I sav that tsars wen welling up in ono of her eyes and not iu the other, I surmised that the little dinner had got entirely on one side of her midriff and the pympathy all on t'other. But I wns wrong; mid this ia how I found out. The widow's escort whs n sappy young fellow, whose love was an profound us his shallowness permitted. After puzzling himself a while over the dry- lies-) of one of her eyes while its mate was brimming, ho nskud her for an explanation of the photioiuonou. "And which aye do you admire most?" she said. "H-h-hard to tell," ha stammered, "The ono w-w-with the tsars sort of melts a fellow, d-d-don't you know, and the one without the tears sets h-hhim nblase with its il-fl-flamei." "On the whole, now, which do you preferI" "Wa-wa-well, I think the d-d-dry one.*' "I am bo glad, Dolphy, to hear yeu say that," and the widow beamed rapturously into his face, "because that eye is a glass one, aud .I'm sometimes afraid it disfigures me." This revelation lost her a lover, but I don't suppose she will misa him from tho gang, and she certainly had fun with him while he lasted. — Clara Belle's Neio York Letter. ARTHUR W.

The sounding* that were made between Ireland and Newfoundland before layiug the Atlantic cable havo made the bottom of the Atlantic al- moat as well known as the surface of Europe and America. It is covered with a fine mud, the remains of microscopic insects, which will one day, doubtless, harden into chalk. The bottom of the Atlantic ia tbe widest and must prodigioua plain in the world. If the sea were drained oil', you might drive a waggon all the way from Valencia on the west coast of Ireland, to Trinity Bay, in Newfoundland, and ex* capt one sharp incline, about two hundred mites from Valentia, it might never be necesaary to put the akid on, an gentle are the nacenta and descents upon that long road. From Valentia the road would be down hill for about two hundred mites, to the point at which the bottom ia now covered by seventeen hundred fathoms af aea water. Then would come the central plain, mure than one thousand miles wide, the iner-uulities of the surface of which would be hardly perceptible. Boyond this ascent on the American tide commences, and i;rad-ally leads for about two hundred milea to the Newfoundland shore.

It was seen that, in proportion to population, Victoria city and district has moro than four times the representation that New Westminster city and district has, and that Kootenay, in proportion to it. Toting power, has forty-two times as much I These inequalities were not ao great five y.ars ago; but ev.n th.n they were such as to indue* th. administration of the day to introduce a. measure for a readjust- ment and increase of representation. That administration went out, and the present one cam. into power but the necessity for a readjustment of representation with a view to its approximation to a population basis was so urgently felt as to induce the Government to promise the country that a measure for that purpose would be brought down this session. It has been seen how that promise has been kept! The absence of any reference to it in the opening speech roused our fears; and these fears have been realized. The Government had neither the honesty nor the courage to bring down such a measure. It was admitted on all hands that the concluding session of a parliamentary term was the most fitting time to make a change in the basis uf representation; but it has just been seen that the Ministers had not the courage to take the matter up and fulfil their promise. They had made up their minds to allow the country to drift into another four years' term upon the old ro' ten basis. Tbey were willing to perpetuate the existing state of things, rather than incur the risk of losing a follower. \ But what a recreant, cowardly Government refused to do was very properly undertaken by private Members. . It was most fitting that the measure should have been introduced by a New Westminster Member, and it was equally in accordance with the eternal fitness'of things that the measure was voted down by the Government forces. Only think of it! The two representatives of Kootenay*. Ji/teen free and independent electors voting against giving a fourth representative to New Westminster's one thousand .lectors ! Or even the two Esqnimalt Members, with tlieir eighty eight voters apiece, declaring that one thousand voters on thu Lower Fraser shall not have four members 1 What extraordinary ideas of justice some people have. Justice, indeed ! What car. such creatures for justic. 1 But Walkem and his colleagues need not think to evade the fu'l responsibility of Thuiiday's vote. They gained their point, tbey prevented justice being done, only by the casting voto of their own creature—the Speaker; but, for all practical purposes, they hav. been defeated, have ceased any longer to lead a majority of th. people's representatives to the country', ruin. The Estimates. ' New Westminster (City and District) comes in for the following :— Roads, bridges, ia, in the District, $4,000. Then there is in addition to that, $1,000 for that portion of the trunk road between Ladner's Landing and Hope, which, of course, cannot be regarded as a District appropriation, any more than those for th* trunk road abovo Yale. The appropriations for the various service, and for education are much th* nm* «B in former years, being a. follows:—Lunatic Asylum, $6,- 700; Police and Gaols (City), $7,- 692; Do, 'Burrard Inlet, $720; B, O. .Hoipital, 84,250; Education (City), SfiJlO; Do. District, 87,001); Repairs of Government Buildings, J400; Schools- in Surrey Municipality, "*2'50;'Do. Chilliwhack, 8150; Fir*7 De|*rtment, $500. Comparing the grants for public worti in thi'City and District with than''of' U%iyf»t, it is evid.nt that tho Lowar Fiwer is weise off %bntx ever.' I'M J"3"' counting the fobiS for the city muooI building. (which by the way was nev.r spent), $4,550 was voted. Butnow, when impending railway work increases tho necessity for roads and bridges to coi: nect producers with the centres .of consumption, instead of the appropriations being doubled or trebled, as they ought to have been, they are cut down ! Four thousand dollars! Why, it will take about one-half of that for the Coquitlam bridge alone. And what about the new school buildings in this city? Las year $850 was voted for the purpose of extension and repairs, but Walkem got round the Trustees aud palavered them into believing that if they would let the matter lie over till this year—the general election, you know—he would set that they had three or four times a. much to construct a bran new suite of educational buildings, buildings of some architectural pretensions, which would b. an ornament to the city, hi.,.hi. ' But it waa simply palaver —oily gammon, intended to mi.lead. There are those amongst us who havo been preaching the sordid doctrine of sticking to Mr. Walkem and getting big appropriations. We congratulate such upon th* wonderful success of the experiment. It ia about time the representative, of the Lower Fraser were ranged in the Opposition. Had they remained there, as they ought to have done, the country aud the District might have been spared present disaster and humiliation. But "better late than never." Editorial Notes. Communications, not intended for publication but simply for our own information, have reached us from the various rural municipalities, upon the subject of tho proposition to vest the liquor licensing power in tha municipal councils. From these communications, and fmm what we know of the matter through other sources, there seems no reason to doubt that tho change would be contrary to tho wishes of tbe best part of the population, and would conduce to a most undesirable state of affairs. It ii plainly intimated that the movement has been hatched in a certain corner and sprung upon the municipalities, and it is confidently stated that if left to the popular vote, ai it ought to have been, a very large majority would be found against it. We have no idea that tlie Legislature will make the change, but it would probably be well if the question were taken up and fully discussed in the various municipalities. It is no disparagement to say that if the responsibility of issuing nnd regulating liquor licensee were banded over to the municipalities, it would lead to a very undesirable condition of affairs in more than one locality. In another place will be found extracts from the Report cf a Committee appointed by the Victoria Board of Trade upon the important subject of salmon culture and fishing. Upon the whole, we are hot disposed to find fault with Die conclusions and suggestions of the Committee, Indeed we think they are in the main in the right direction, especially that portion which deals with fish culture, We maybe permitted, however, to express surprise that, before venturing to deal with a question so largely affecting the interests of the Lower Fraser, the Board of Trade should not have thought it incumbent upon them to discuss tbe subject with those most deeply interested. The gentlemen constituting tliat Board should remember that, although taking the name of the Provinco, the association is, after all, essentially local in its composition, and to some oxtent, in its interests; and whenever undertaking to deal with important provincial questions in the name of British Columbia, it would.be proper and becoming to consult With British Columbia. We hope the gdfttlemeii comprising the Board will receive th< - admonition in the spirit in which it h delivered; for although in this instance we believe that their conclusions will, to a very great extent, be concurred in by those engaged in the fishing industry in thii part of the province, yet it might have been otherwise, and there may arise questions upon which there might not be a similar concurrence of opinion and interest. Death in the Coffee Pot.—The public are cautioned against purchasing imported California ground coffee. Its cheapness is its only recommendation. The ingredients arc of the vilest description, us any one using it will discover should he examine the grounds. During the perihelia of tbe planets people should be cureful what they eatand drink.

Gardiner, arrired from Victoria at ti: 10 last evening, with mails, freight and passengers. It was understood in Victoria that the Western Slope and the Pacific Slope would leave for the river and Yale this morning. What has the local organ to say now about the judicious husbanding of the public revenue by the Walkem Government? t The cer#mony of laying the foundation stone of Mr. Deane's new brick building will most likely take place on Monday. We hear it stated that, of the 94,000 down in the Estimates for Now Wesfe^ minster roads, &c, $1,500 is for bridging the Coquitlam river. Tile Enterprise brought up 210 workmen for the 0. P. R. contractor Inst night They were transferred to the Reliance which left shortly after.

A meeting of the Council of the New Westminster Rilio Association will be held in Dr. '.Yew's Otlice on Wednesday evening next at 8 o'clock. We observe $1,650, down in the supplementary estimates For public schools,' in this City, but the chances of thu money being forthcoming are very slim. The report of the proceedings of the Chilliwhack Council, addressed to this office, having gone round by Victoria, we are unable to publish them to-day. Amongst the passenger* by the En terprise yesterday was A. Onderdonk, Esq., C. P. Et. ..contractor, who has just returned from Ottawa.

The steamer Reliance, Capt. Innlcy, left for Yale last night, with freight and passengers, and with a reasonable prospect of getting through, ns it is thought the water hns risen sufficiently. The Government are. evidently desirous nf holding back the dock committee's report till they get the estimates through, when they causnap their fingers at the Opposition. The Opposition will hardly be so caught, |.ar]y yesterday morning a land slide ocd&rred at Maple Ridgo, adjoining the'large''on* of last year.

The Civic Printing.—-Mr. Howison is always prepared for a joke, but his remarks at the Council mooting with respect, tn the civic printing, if intended nsa joke, iimy be misconstrued by those who do not know the circumstances. Mr. Howison said there must be a combination Among the printing offices, as neither of th'tmi would tender for the corporation printing. He should have stated the reasons why no tender was made. When the committee entrusted witli the matter waited upon us the question asked was, "What will you charge per "m" to do th* whole corporation printing for the year?" Now, any printer knows that no intelligent answer could he given to such a question unless the committee wero prepared to state approximately what kind and how much Would be required. This thoy could not do; and as there was no possible basis upon which to make a tender, of course no tender could be made. These are the simple facts, and Mr. Howisnn's proper course would have been to state thein. The hint about, going to Victoria er setting up a civic printing establishment is, uf course, not serious. Tho Cou'JUMan does city work at regular rates, and these rates are quite as low as could be obtained at Victoria, and actually lower than those tvhiclj prevail in many nf the Canadian towns. We make un distinction beLween the corporation and other business concerns. There is no reason why thoy rIiouUI bo charged eitbor less or more, tf it is the "pinion of the Council that printing could be dono-more cheaply by the Corporation perhaps a practical test would not be more cosily timo somo other enterprises in which city funds have been uselessly wasted, and the result might not be more disappointing to'the ratepayers. ^____^____ The Ut-p.Tst-n tul Ion Quest Ion In the House, oil Thursday, Mr. Harris moved, and Mr?

Application for Government Grant. According to announcement, a public meeting was held in the Hyack Hall on Thursday night, to discuss the Port Moody road question. The meeting was called for. 8, hut the Mayor did not tako the chair till 8;30. At thst time there were 20 persons present, but before the meeting adjourned the audience numbered 47. Mr. W. Duncan was appointed secretary. The first resolution waa moved by Mr, D. Curtis, and declared thst, in view of the fact that the contract for the construction of the C. P, R. from Emory to Port Moody had been let, it is of the highest importance that a wagon road be built connecting this city and Port Moody, Resolution carried without discussion. On motion of Mr. William Holmes, it wns declared that it was expedient to commence the road at once and push it on to. completion with, all possible haste, or else the city would suffer serious loss, parried without com mint, Mr. W. Dunonr moved the next resolution, declaring that -tho road now known as the North Road was the proper one, as considerable work hsd already been done on it, and the cost of completion would not be large. This resolution hung fire a long time for a ,seconder. Mr. .Chris Lte thought if a road were built it should go. to tbe head nf the Inlet. Mr. J. C. Armstrong said he had no objection to second this resolution or any of thein, but he didn't believe any good was going to be accomplished. Last year we had a similar meeting and passed the name resolutions, aud what came of it i They went down to Victoria and were thrown into the waste basket. That would be the result of the present agitation. He was one of the deputation who went to Victoria last year, and tho Premier said whenever the railway- contract to Port Moody was let, the wagon road would b* built like a flush. The present Government were ready enough to premise, but they never did anything. This district would never get anything from Walkem. The whole appropriation we were to receive this year for roads and bridges was 94,000, and we had a population only 1000 less than the whole of Vanouuv*r Island. Our share was proportionately about as big as a postage stamp compared to the Loudon Time*. He would vote the 94,000 for a cast of the Government, to be taken in that celebrated cement upon which they had already squandered $35,000. The Government's treatment of this district had been most contemptible and insulting. Resolution carried. . , . The n«t ■ resolution was-mortd by Mr. Jas. Cunningham, requesting the oity and district members in press the matter upon the attention of the Government, and obtain a sufficient appropriation from the "surplus revenue" for the purpose. Mr. J. C. Armstrong would like some explanation. Where is the surplus ? Such a thing as a Government surplus would b« a rare curiosity iu thia country. Resolution carried. Mr. J. B. Burr moved that a committee b* appointed to confer with the district members and the Chief Commissioner, and make use of whatever means they thought proper to accomplish the scheme. The committee selected was as follows: Messrs. J. C. Armstrong, .las. Cunningham, J. A. Webster, the Mayor, and Mr! Howison. Mr. Jas. Kennedy' thought some scheme should be adopted iu case the application to the Government failed. If the road was for the benefit nf Port Moody, let the property owners is*tie scrip to build it. If it was for the benefit of the city, let city debentures be issued. If the benefit would bo shared by both, let both contribute equally to the undertaking. IU didn't believe the Government would make a giant, and if (he property owners nt I'urt Moody were too hide-bound to contribute somo of their town lots, they couldn't oxpeot us to do anything. Mr. Howison thought we had better try the Government first. Mr. J. A. Webster, ns a Port Moody property owner, said ,Port Moody was perfectly independent of the road, and if the pooplo of this city couldn't see their own interests it would be their own loss. Mr. J, C. 'Armstrong said if Port Moody was so independent, tho people of this city should bo independent too. Tho proper course would be to form it company and build a mil- way from this city to connect with the C. P. R. nt or near,Pit River. It would cost only about SS.f.OOO, und then we would be independent of either Port Moody or Coal Harbor. If the road went to Port Moody, this would be the real terminus for many years to come: if it went to Coal Harbor, as many people supposed it would, very likely tho branch from this city tu Pit River would become a part of the main line. Mr Jas. Kennedy approved heartily of the railway suggestion. If this bi'Hnch railway were Inrlt, the city revenues would in 8 years pay tho whole cost. Ha proceeded to criticise tho extravagance of the City Council, when ho was interrupted by the Mayor and ordered tn sit down, as civic affairs were nnt now upon for discussion, The meeting then adjourned. (It) council. A Night With the City Fathers. The Council mot on Wednesday night, pursuant to adjournment. Pre- Bent, His Worship tha Mayor, and Councillors Howison, Haslam, Curtis, Webster, Johnston, and Elliott. There were quite a number of spectators p rvsuu t. A letter was rend from Mr. Q. E. Corbould, solicitor, applying on behalf of Mr. Bt-iggs for $100 which had been deposited with the Clerk for a saloon license which the Council had refused to grant. Mr. Howison thought we might not to give up th* money. So did Mr. Haslam, and a resolution to that effect was carried. A letter was read from Councillor Dmnm, tendering his resignation Councillor for St, George's Ward. As a reason for resigning, Mr. Deane stated that it must be patent to the Mayor and painfully so to the Council, that he (the Mayor) had proved a total failure. His conduct iu ruling resolutions out of order and permitting Councillors to indulge in uncalled for, abusive aud insult ing language had prevented freedom of discussion nnd the transaction of business. Ample time bad been atlorded to correct these abuses, aud as the prospect of improvement seemed hopeless, nothing was l*ft for him but to resign. The Mayor said he did not think tlie letter was worthy of notice or discussion. There wns no apology or explanation necessary from him. Ou motion of Mr. Curtis, Mr. Deane's reify nation was accepted, mid it was ordered that nominations for the new election should be held on Wednesday, the 2l)lh inst., and polling on the 1st of April. The following accounts wore present- ad and referred to committee to be paid if found correct:—Chas. McDoti- ough, for oil, 811,50; CnU'MMAN, for printing, &o>. 932.84; Pry, for desk, Ac, for Council Chamber, 926. An account from Mr. Edmonds amount ing to 95, for foes as witness in a license case iu 1880, waa ordered paid. Also, Mr. Forrest, 910 for burying a squaw. Mr. Curtis explained that the squaw had been lying dead for several days and he, as & member of the Board of Health, had ordered the buiiaL Mr. Johnston thought the account should have, been presented to the Indian Agent, whoso duty it wns to attend to these matters. If we paid this, nobody could tell how mnny more we should have to pay. Mr. Haslam was of opinion that the bill should be paid, us it was ordered by a member of the Council. Mr. Elliott said ho had several times waited upon tho Indian Agent with respect to similar cases, but he was told that when Indians died within the city limits the city must bury them. The account ww ordered to be paid, and thu Clerk was instructed, to bill the Indian Agent fur the amount- \ Mr. Howison reported that he had waited upon the local publishers to obtain tenders for corporation printing, but had failed to got figures from any one. He believed there must be a combination among the printing establishments and the Committee didn't know whether to send the printing to Victoria or buy a press for themselves. Both tho offices agreed to tin the work at regular rates, but they would not tender. He moved that the printing he left in the hands of the Clerk to be divided fairly between tho two offices—carried. In reply to a question ns to when th* revenue by-law would bo completed, Mr. Hnsliun said the committeecutild make no progress, as they could have no basis of action until the validity of the sidewalk* by-law bad been decided, Mr. Curtis said that question might not be decided for three mouths, and the business of the oity could not be oarried on without revenue. Mr. Haslam said the only safe way would be to levy the highest legal rate so as to provide for an adverse result in the sidewalks case. If the rate wore placed at. 1 cent. and we had to keep the sidewalks, in repair, there would be a deficit. -Mr. Johnston considered it child'splny to be waiting for tliat decision. He was opposed to a higher rate thnn 1 cent. If that was not sufficient for sidewalks we must du without them. Mr. Elliott said the responsibility of delay did not rest with the committee. There was no use going on unless the resolutions of the Council were carried out, Tho Mnyor asked Mr. Elliott if he would be kind enough to stnte upon whose shoulders the responsibility did rest- Mr. Elliott—"Well, a great deal of it rests on your own shoulders." The Mayor said he did not consider it his special duty to carry out resolutions of Council. Tho resolutions were iu the hands of the clerk who, ought to enforce them. He was no more responsible thnn any one else. An application waj read from th* Water Works Co., lukijig permission to erect tanks on Agnes st., Royal Avenue",.arid Queen's Avenue, and to lay down pipes along any street where they, might be found Necessary to an extension of the system, afr.'Johnston .-bought the Council should first know exactly what the company proposed to do. Somo day these water works might bu very valuable, and we should not vote away our rights blindly. The Mnyor snid that when this became a large city the water of th* company would deteriorate and hecomo unfit for domestic purposes. The application was referred to a select committee. . Tho Mayor, presented; a letter from Capt, Jommett, of Victoria, suggesting that the city Bhould make application to the Dominion Government for possession of the park and grounds extending from Mr. Homer's -residence to the penitentiary, about 200 acres. He believed the application would be successful. "On motion jt was ordered tliat application be made at once through Mr. Homer, M. P. - Sir. Haslam handed' in his rceigna- tion ns member of the Council, nnd left the Board. Mr. Curtis thought the resignation should bo accepted at once so that th* elections mii/ht be held simultaneously and expense saved. Mr. Howison asked that no action be taken till next Monday night when, if he was rightly informed, thero would be more of the same kind. The resignation wns laid on the table, and the Council adjourned till Monday night. ■*» ■ SkkdM—Call and see our fine stock Acacultural Seeds and. note our prices before purchasing elsewhere. Herring, Druggist, City Drug Store, N. W. . -m> ' "Salmon Culture." This is the title of a nest little pamphlet before us, being the Report of a Committee appointed by tho Victoria Board of Trade, dated 20th January, last. The subject is one of very great importance, aud we need, therefore, oiler no apology for presenting the following extracts:— The importance of the fishing Industry to the Dominion and British Columbia cannot be over estimated, and the growth of it—as evidenced by the faot that in 1830 the' value of canned salmon put up in the Province, was $305,000, while iu 1881 it had increased to 13876,000- promises to be so rapid that your Commit.* recommend thst while the industry is still young, the rivers well stocked with salmon, and apparently no injurious diminution of the fish supply yet experienced, well considered aud linn steps should be taken to protect the rivers from over-fishing and thereby place this valuable industry on a securo and lasting basis. Compared with the Columbia and Sacramento, the rivers of thi* province ar* mull and their capabilities as fishing grounds are very limited. On the smaller streams utter exhaustion of the fish would soon ensue from over-Helling, while iu the Fraser aud Skeenn rivers the supply would be so diminished as to seriously injure th* industry, which, under proper protective measures, should not only continue as a means of employment to a very large portion of our population, but be developed ou a far more extensive and permanent footing. The principal part of the pamphlet is taken up with Mr. Wilmnt's letter to Messrs. Hnigh A Suns, of th* Coquitlam cannery, and it concludes as follitws:— Another important reason for guarding against a diminution of the snlmon supply exists in the fact that a large Indian population depends upon it as its main article of support. This does not apply only to the Indians resident ou rivers, hut also to those ou the coast, on islands, and in parts of the interior, as the river Indians catch and dry large quantities of salmon which they barter with other Indians who cannot obtain this essential article for themselves, and should salmon become extinct in the rivers, or be so seriously reduced iu quantity as to cause destitution among the Indian population, it would be a serious matter for the Government to provide means of support for those Indians. The Committee, in view of the foregoing, recommend that the Dominion Government be urged in the strongest manner possible, to adopt immediate and effective measures to guard against over-fishing, and the consequent inevitable diminution, and possible exhaustion of the salmon fisheries. Regulations have already risen made by which a close time of 24 hours in ench week is prescribed, but the opinion of many fishermen and persons conversant with the habits of salmon is, that those regulations do not afford the requisite protection, owing to the uncertain and irregular movement of the fish tewards the spawning ground. To extend the close time would be highly detrimental to the fishing industry, as the runs of fish are limited to sliMit periods, of which canneries must take the utmost advantage in order to make the business profitable. Hatcheries, when fully established under government supervision, would probably be the means of maintaining the salmon supply unimpaired; but no hatcheries have yet been established in the province, and. even were they established at once, some years would elapse beforo thev could be effective. As tlie regulations pertaining to a close time for fishing do not afford the protection necessary, and the establishment of hatcheries has not even been considered by the Government, the Committee are. of opinion that a scheme (having due regard to vested interests) of granting licenses, hy which the number of fisheries in the different rivers nnd fishing places would be regulated and placed under the control of the Government, would best meet the case until hatcheries of the necessary productive capacities hare been established. The Committee suggest that: The power of granting licenses should rest with a Board consisting of the Lieutenant-Governor, the Inspector of 'Fisheries for the Province, and the Indian Commissioner; That tubing with nets, seines, or other appliances should not be permitted iu ftny of the rivers, approaches to rivers, or inlets of the province except by license, and that the infringement of any of the regulations which may be framed should entail confiscation of fishing appliances, besides severe penalties; Licenses to be granted yearly; . The cost of licenses to be a nominal sum, say' not exceeding 920 or 925 for each establishment. HOLT'S EXPRESS!

KITH AND KIN. (Continued.) Afterward when I grew older, she told ine all about your offer. She said you had sent a messenger to say that if she chose to give me up entirely to you for eleven months in the year, and during that time to hold no communication with me or with you—she might have what was left of me for one—and she said ihe had sent you back tlie answer you deserved. I say •he did right. If I were begging my broad in the streets, I should say she had done right." His grandfather had been gazing intently at hiin as he spoke, drinking iu, as it were, every word that he Uttered. As Aglionby ceased, ho drew a long sigh, and a strangely subdued look came over liis face. He passed his haml across his eyas and said, iu a low voice, as if communing with him- "Ay! ay! such was my message- such was my mesiago. Then," lie added presently, looking up again, "since you are called after your mother and her people; since you have been delivered over into tlieir hands, what have they done for you ? Perhap. you were too proud to accept their assistance, eh?" A gleam of hope, pleasure and approval dawned in his eyes, nnd hs looked eagerly at Aglionby. "My mother had no people, except her one sister, who was as poor and brave as herself. I never refused tlieir assistance, for it was never offered me. They had no menus of assisting ma." f'No-means! I thouijlit ': he began, looking strangely at Bernard, while, a dark red color suffused his face. He muttered something to himself and loomed tu ponder upon it- Then suddenly looking up again he naked: "And pray, what do you think of me V His choler had subsided, aud he looked up into the somber face above him, with an expression akin to wiut- f illness. "Of ynu ? I know absolutely nothing of you, except tliat ono action of yours, which you cannot possibly expect mo to think right. For the rest, you are my father's father, and entitled to my outward respect, at least." "Humph! Then, whon your mother refused my offer, what did she do?" he asked suspiciously. "She went on with her music-teaching and her drudgery. She worked for ine," said Aglionby with passionate though repressed emotion. "And six years ago, when I could have begun to repay her, she died." No asseverations were necessary to emphasize the feeling that lay beneath this simple and unadorned statement of a fact. It seemed to cause some reflection to the elder man, who, however, presently said: "How would you like, when next you have a holiday, to come and spond it at Scar Font)" Bernard's eyes suddenly lighted. His faco changed. Then he laughed a littlo and said: "Not at all, thank you." "No? Why not?'' asked the other in a tone of deep mortification. "Because I havo neither port nor lot in Scar Foot, and will not go noar it. I will keen to the friends I know." "Sirati! What friends can you have here? What influence have they? How can they help you I What can they do for you?" "Nothing; that's just it. I havo everything to do for myself, and it is best to remain where nothing can happen to disturb my conviction on that point." "Thon you don't realize that I still could, if I chose, put you out of the necessity uf doing anything, could provide for you amply, without your needing to lift a finger. Bernard laughed again, more cynically than before. "If you choso, and if I chose," he said, "You seem to forget that I am Bernard* Long's son, but I do not. Nor do I forget your own character, your caprice, your hardness. All the Aglionbys are hard and obdurate as rocks; my mother has told me so, and I feel it iu my own breast. You are not one who could put up with being thwarted. If I saw much of you, I should probably do something to thwart you every day. I have hands to work with"— he held them out; "a head to plan with"—he smiled ambiguously; "health to carry me through adversities, and a will which enables me te restrain my wishes and desires within reasonable bounds. So long as those things are left me, I am my own master, and my own master I will remain." "A bright life, truly!" sneered the other. "Hard work for a bare subsistence; i/rinding your brains to powder to keep body and soul together; a fining will to be used for nothing but to ropreas the natural desires and impulses of a young man of spirit—a pretty, life, truly, and I wish you joy of it!" "It's not much to boast nf, is it? 'A poor thing, sir, but mine own.' Fortunately there are always things in this world, and especially in a big town like this, to take a man outside himself, nr he would be iu a bad way." "Plays for instance, and concerts. It runs in the blood to be fond of such things." "Yes, Luckily for mo it does. They have driven the devil from my elbow more than once, and will do so again, I doubt not." "Oh, then ho does sit at your elbow sometimes, dues heI" "Often enough, and black enough ha looks." "What shape does he take now? What does he look like?" "Many it shape. Once he dragged me through some months of low dissipation—I'm an elevated character you perceive. He got me into the miro and held me there till I waa nearly choked. But 1 managed to scramble out somehow. That waa after my mother had gone," ha added slowly, and with hesitation. "I had nothing then, not a aoul to turn to, Bah! It's a filthy recollection. Ha takes other shapes now." "Aa what, for instance?" "Ob, now he ofteneit looks like a lean knave, clutching an amptypuraa, and pointing his finger aleng a cold road full of milestones that get more and more tumbledown-looking as you go on. I passed the twenty-sixth of them the other day." "Ha!" said the old man clutching the round knob of his stick, pursing hia mouth; and staring down at the dusty floor, with round, open eyes, as he shook liis head a little. "I know those milestones, too. You've many yet to pass before you get to the one that I tottered hy u few week ago." "Which was that?" asked Aglionby in a softer tone. "The seventy-second." "Ah! That is a long way from twenty-six." "Ay, it is. Well; you haven't made yourself out a smooth or delicate character," he said, with sudden quickness and keenness. Aglionby shrugged his shoulders. "Why should I? You would hardly have believed mo if I had, seeing that I am one of your own race. Such as I am, I have told you—why, I couldn't say, whatever you were to give me for it." "And your existence here, is it an inspiriting one?" "No—at least, not that part of it which is devoted to business." "It is not a business in which you are likely to rise, then?" "Not unless I bought my rise. Tha heavier you are weighted—with gold— the faster you get on in the race," said Bernard rather dryly. "H'm! Did you choose it for yourself?" "Necessity and the length of my mother's purse chose it for me. They bound me over te them for five years, and paid me various salaries during that time, beginning with live pounds, and ending with the dizzy eminence of five-and-twenty. Since then, by screwing hard, I've been able to keep myself." "Aud is the situation pretty secure?" "It is quite secure, so long as I am the cheapest and hard est-working fellow they can find for it." "But why should you submit to such scurvy treatment? A grandson of mine! Monstrous! give them a lesson; offer to leave them." Again Aglionby laughed the cynic's laugh. "They would take me at my word at once, and there would be lifty hungry men waiting to step into my shoes, and to thank heaven on their knees for the work that I was too dainty for." "But you could find something else —something more suited " "When I can—something more remunerative—I shall cut the present concern without scruple, I assure you." "What would you be, if you had to choose ?" "That's a leading question, but I happen to have mi answer ready for it. I'd be a politician, with enough money to help my cause forward and the opposition one backward." "Your cause being—-I saw you at the Liberal Demonstration on Saturday." "Yes, my catiBe is the Liberal cause or rather the Liberal cause is mine." The old man rose. "I must go," said he. "When I caino in here, I was thinking of you, and wondering where in all this great city you were to be found. I guessed who you were, when I heard that girl call you Bernard. Is she the girl you are engaged to ?" "Yes." "Ah, well! wouldn't you really like to run over to Scar Foot? I can tell you it is a place well worth visiting— tho fairest spot, I say, in the fairest county in all fair England." "1 dare say; it wuuld do me no good to seo it under the circumstances,' replied Bernard curtly, while an intense longing to look upon it rushed over him. Had ho not heard its every room described by his father, til! he felt that were he dropped down before it, he could find his way through it blindfold! He had heard tho doggrel old verse which that father had repeated in his last hours, as he lay senseless and "babbled of green fields." ' 'To fair S,*nr Knot my thoughts I turn, Win-lice lilti-1 wiilki'd H-illi you, Through flulili lie-h-we-l—-' There the recollection always broke off short; but Aglionby, from his earliest childhood, always thought ef Scar Foot as surrounded with "fields bedewed." His father, exiled and banished, had never ceased to love his homo, and return to it in infancy, with a dalesman's deep and ineradicable love. * If lie, Bernard, were thus disturbed nt the mere idea of seeing the much loved soot, what might the ex tent of his weakness be, should he ever really behold it? No; he would keep firm while yet he could; and he added nothing to his last words, though his tips were parted. His grandsire watched him keenly. "Can you uiistitleii your fingers so as to shake hands with me?" he asked. Bernard paused. Then, literally carrying out tlio old man's words, he did unbend Ins obstinate joints, and nut them within the old, knotted hand held out to him. Their eyes met; there was plenty of dogged obstinacy in both their faces, plenty of self-opinionatediiess, pride, determination; rugged, twisted characters, both of them, but honest. As their fingers touched, Bernard remembered and the recollection seomed to throw a new light over his mind—that his father had not been strong and sturdy like this; who was to say what provocation this irascible old man might not have received at the hands of his beloved? What passionately cherished hopes might not have been blighted when Ralph Aglionby left "lair Scar Foot," at strife with his father, aud after sulking in London for six months took to wife Bcrnada Long, from among what must have seemed to the retired country squire tho daughters of Heth—the ranks namely of poor musical professional people ? As if hy one impulse their hands closed upon one another, in a mighty grip; then, without a word, were unclasped again. (To I'd Continued.)
