It meant n heavy tax on\nfood. Cnu unyimdy imagine that\nwhen food is heavily taxed the people are better fed 1 Protectionists\nare always pointing tho finger of\nwarning at tho temporary depression of this or the other trade or\nmanufacture among thu numberless\ntrades and manufactures of Great\nBritain. Would the sufferers he\nbetter ofl\" if evory loaf of bread\ncost lliein half as much again as it\ndoes 1 Would that give them higl\ner power of production or a better\nmarket for their goods 1 Tliere are\nstrikes occasionally in England,\nThero are just as many in the United States: you may see in an American paper tho announcement of\nhalf-a-dozen in a row; and tlie\nother day in ttie mining\ncountry there was a strike wliich\nassumed the gravity of a petty civil\nwar. Nothing can be more certain\nthan that the system of protection,\nby the artificial stimulus which'it\ngives, aggravates the fluctuations\nfrom wliich industrial disturbances\narise. Tho distress and over-crowding in the low quarters of London\naro also cited as proofs of the fatal\neflects of free trade. In a city\nwith four millions of inhabitants\nthe amount of misery is sure to be\nlarge, though it bears no proportion\nto the amount of wealth and comfort. Accounts are every day coming to us of destitution in Paris\nfully as sad as those of destitution\nin London, though Paris does not\nlike London receive a continual inflow of poor Irish und refugee\nJews. Yet France is not a free\ntrade country. If the corn laws\nwere reinforced, which is what is\nmeant in tlie case of England by a\nreturn to protection, rentals would\nagain be bloated just ns the gains of\nmanufacturers are bloated by protective duties on goods, and the\npeople Mould sink again into the\nhunger and despondency which\nwere their lot hefore 1840,\u00E2\u0080\u0094The\nWeek.\nWe suspect the truth to be that\nit is the variety of the excitements\noffered by war which, when tho details are visible, so rapidly diffuses\ninterest in them through classes the\nmost diverse or far apart. Some,\nperhaps the majority, are attracted\nalmost solely bythe dramatic effects\nof a campaign. The sense of surprise which lies so deep in human\nnature is constantly being evoked,\nus it is evoked by nothing else. No\nbattle is ever quite certain, nor\nwas there ever a campaign iu which\nit was not possible that individual\ngenius might create situations, or\ncause catastrophes of the most entirely unexpected kind. History\nitself seems modified when the old\narmy is beuton by tlie now one; and\nwhen Napoleon crushes thn Aus-\ntrians, or Von Moltke crushes the\nFrench, there is as much of material for amazement as if new forces\nfrom Heaven hud descended iuto\nthe field, Meu love surprise ; and\nno surprise could bo greater thnn\nthat of the skilled onlooker when\nKoeniggratz revealed the powers of\nthe needle-gun, and Spoichcren\nshowed to whnt kind of dreadful\ndiscipline the Prussian army had\nbeen wrought-up. Many spectators, again, who care less fdr dramatic effects, feel intensely the historic aspoct of war, tho light it\nthrows on the martial capacities of\ntho different peoples, on their organization, nnd on tlieir aspirations.\n\"Theso Germans, theu, are not\ndreamers.\" \"These Fronch uro only\ngreat when they win.\" \"Those\nRussians die in heaps uselessly.\"\n\"These Arabs are heroes.\" Such\nrevelations as these, palpable and\nunmistakable, beyond urgumont as\nboyond alteration, enchant observers with historic minds, uud seem\nto them to throw ou the past a\nstronger light even than on the present Then there is the passionate\ninterest excited by great individualities. Nothing arouses this like\nwar, because no human being is so\nvisible as a great general. His\nstrokes, his ideas, his shifts, are\nstudied like those of a superior being, and whole nations wince if ho\nhas made a palpable mistake, or is\ncut oil' before he hus executed his\nplans. It is Wellington who interests, not the British army ; it is thc\nfate of Gordon thnt attracts, uot\nthat of Khartoum. And finally,\nthere is the interest in the mighty\n\"game\" itself, Jf the faculty of\nstrategy is not much more widely-\nspread than is believed the interest\niu strategy is; aud it is ono of tho\nmost absorbing kind.

It is moreover one of\nthc most interesting to lovers of good\nmusic as being the location of a magnificent collection of instruments. The\nerection of thia building, which cost\nabout 81,000, became necessary to meet\nthe requirements ot the company, which\nhad been cramped for room in the Main\nBuilding, where it is impossible to judge\nthc merits of high-class instruments. The\nenterprise displayed by the Company in\nproviding suitable quarters on the\ngrounds ior their business has been re-\nwartjjjd. The large number of visitors\nwho call, inspect, and purchase proves\nbeyond question that the public approve\ntho provision made for their convenience\nand comfort. Here a crowd may be\nseen listening to test performances on\nflrst-class instruments made by leading\ncity aud country musicians.\nBight well do tbe Company deserve\nthe success which they have achieved.\nThe present prosperous concern had, like\nall great Institutions, its day of small\nthings. It had its origin in Bowmanville\nnbout fifteen years ago, the stock being\nnt thnt time largely held by parties unacquainted with the business. About ten\nyears go John Wesley, the present secretary nud treasurer; George Piggott, the\nmannger of the manufacturing department; and W. S, Russell, superintendent of the tuning department, bought\nout the slyircholder* and assumed control. Since that date the business has\nbeen booming. A further stimulus was\ngiven to the concern by the admission of\na Detroit millionaire ns a partner. Piano-\nmaking was added to the organ-manufacturing, and the establishment was increased, until it now occupies a leading\nfosition among Canadian undertakings.\nt turns ont shout 200 organs and SO\npianos per month. These are produced\nby 250 hands, who receive in wages\nabout $15,000 per month. The whole\ncivilized world -is the firm's market, and\nthey have branches in London and Manchester, England; Hamburg, Germany;\nAdelaide nnd Sydney, Australia; Auckland, New Zealand; and St. Petersburg,\nRussia.\nThe instruments on exhibition in the\npavilion are fair examples of the Company's workmanship, Au upright piano\nof bun- walnut is a splendid instrument.\nOf square pianos there are two kinds, a\nsquare nnd u square grand. The former\nis intended for standing against the side\nwall of a room, aud is convenient for\ncomparatively small apartments. Tho\nsquare grand is finished on all sides, presents a linnds.iine appearance, ami is\nsuited for occupying a prominent ikr'\ntion in drawing or music room. Thi\ntwo instruments aro of rosewood, with a\nsuperfine polish, secured by hand rubbing with oil for hours. The touch is\nquick and easy, the tone brilliant and\npowerful, lu musical quality and appearance they are equal to the best\nAmerican pianos.\nThe organs made by the Company are\nknown almost everywhere. They are\nmanufactured in alt styles, aud at alt\nprices, ranging from $00 to $1,000. Many\nsample organs are shown ia the ptvilion.\nTho largest organ wffich the Company\nwill exhibit, a double-bank pedal, is at\npresent at the Dominion Exhibition,\nMontreal, but is expected here at the\nend of the week. It is arranged to he\nblown by Turk's water motor, which has\nbeen plnced in position to await tlie\narrival of tlie big instrument. The organs run through all grades, from tlie\nthousand dollar instrument down to tho\npnrlor favorite. The casos show wonderful variety. Many of these are of\nrare beauty nnd skilful workmanship.\nThe case which secured for the Company\nn prize at the Centennial Kxhibition at\nPhiladelphia is still much admired, and\nis largely manufactured. Cases for parlor organs arc chaste iu design aud artls\ntic in execution, Tho musicians who\ntested the organs affirmed that for sweet-\nness oi tone and elasticity of touch they\naro model instruments; while visitors\ncnu themselves judgo ns to the beauty\nand style of the cases.\n[T.

Capt, Adams lias\nhad o> third of a century's experience\nin navigating northern waters, uml is\nconfident Hudson's Buy is a practicable route four months of the yoar. Ho\nsays navigation is open from tho middle of Juno to tbe end of October to\nships properly equipped with two nnd\na half inch iron bark for the outside\nshell, with suitable ice stem, inside\nfortification, aud with extra beam.\nThose ships should be limited to 2,500\ntoiiB in size; larger vessels would be\ntoo long tn wind through the ice packs.\nThey need not bo wooden ships, ns\nafter making two trips lo Hudapti'B\nBay during the season they should be\nemployed iu the Atlantic or nny uther\ntrade during the rest of the yenr. Men\nof energy and spirit will inntccj the\nroute a success. If lhe railway route\nis practicable, tho opening of ocean\nnavigation from Hudson b Bay to\nEurope is only a question of timu and\nmoney. Ho thinks there ib na much\ndanger in navigating tho coasts of\nNewfoundland and Nova Scotia during\nthe breaking up of the ioo in the spring\nas in navigating Hudson's liny nnd\nStrait during the four months Indicated. The safety of the ship there,, ns\nhere, depends very largely on the\ncommon' senso, experience, watchfulness nnd emit ion of the captain.\nSpeaking of tho whale fishery, ho gave\nvery interesting facts and figures showing its enormous profits, nud says\neither Halifax or St. Johns, Ntid.,\nwould make a far better whale fishing\nheadquarters for the world thnn Dundee.\nWine at the Passover*\nA member of the editorial staff' of\nthe Methodist Times, London, in the\nissue of that paper for April 10th, gives\na very interesting account of what ho\nsaw nnd hoard at a modern celebration\nof the Jewish Passover, at the house\nof an orthodox Jew, to which ho hnd\nbeen invited on the occasion, Tho nccount is too long to be inserted here,\nbut we give the closing paragraph.\nTho writer says; \"Supper being ended,\nI said, amongst other things to an intelligent and afi'able Rabbi, who aat\nnext iub, 'May T ask with what kind\nof wine you have celebrated the Passover this evening?' 'With anon \u00E2\u0096\u00A0intoxicating wine' ho promptly replied.\n'Jews nevor uso fermented wine in\ntheir synagogue services, and must nut\nuse it on the Passover either for synagogue or home purposes. Fermented\nliquor of any kind comes under tho\ncategory of 'lenven,' which is proscribed in bo tunny well-known places\nin tho Old Testament. The wine\nwhich is used by Jews during thc week\nof Passover ts supplied to the community by thoso licensed by the Chief\nRabbi's Boiird, and by those only.\nEach bottle is scaled in tho presence\nof a representative of the ecclesiastical\nauthorities. The bottle standing yonder oil tho sideboard from which the\nwine used to-night was taken was thus\nsealed. I nmy also mention that poor\nJews who cannot afford to buy 1 liis\nwine, make an uuferuiented wine nf\ntheir own, which is nothing else hut nn\ninfusion uf Valencia or Muscatel raisins. I have recently read the passage\nin Matthew in whioh the Paschal Supper is described. Tlierii can bu no\ndoubt whatever that the wine used\nupon that occasion was uiifermenterl,\nJesus us nn observant Jew would not\nonly not havo drunk fermented wine\non the Passover, but would not havo\ncelebrated the Passover in any house\nfrom wliich everything fermented hnd\nnot been removal. I may mention\nthat the wine I use in the service nt\ntbe Byiiign^ue is an infusion of raisins.\nYou will allow me, perhaps, to express\nmy surprise that Christians who pro- j\nfees to bu followers of Jesus of Kaza-1\nroth can take (That he could not pos-1\nsibly have taken as a Jew\u00E2\u0080\u0094intoxicating wine, at so sacred a service as the\nsacrament of the Lord's Supper.' \"\nfilet's Rascally Becortl.\nFrank Eastman, who has been clerk\nto the Senate Committee un Claims for\nthe post two years, was district attorney at Helena, M. T., tn 1SS2. In a\nconversation on the Canadian insurrection Mr. Eastman said: ''I know\nLouis Riel well. He wns tbe leader\nof the Red River insurrection in 1872,\nand was guilty of the most atrocious\nand inhuman crimes ever perpetrated\nby man. Add to the tortures of the\ninquisition every agony that devilish\ningenuity could suggest or invent, and\nyou may get a faint idea of the manner in which Red treated tho unfortunate captives who fell into his hands.\nThe Canadian government secured the\nservices of a priest to visit Riel, and\naftor much trouble he succeeded in\ninducing Riel to surrender, Tu spite\nof his many acts of fiendish cruelty\nand the fact that he was guilty of high\ntreason, the Canadian govornment\nfailed to givu him thc hemp he so\nrichly deserved, and is now reaping\ntho fruits of its mistaken mercy. In\nNovember, 1882, Uicl was engaged in\nselling whisky eight or ten miles inside of the lower border of tho Black*\nfeet reservation. Ho procured tho\nliquor iu Fort Benton, and, failing to\npay his bills and boing unable to secure\nany more credit, he transferred his\nvaluable cuBtom to Helena. Here his\ncredit also ran out,-Mid when C. A.\nBroadwater, tho partner and iigout of\nWilder of St. Paul, told him he could\nbe credited no longer, Riel said, ''All\nright, Meester Broadwater, but I would\nlike to meet you out on te perarie,\"\nthuB conveying a delicate suggestion of\nthe hereafter.\nRiel was shortly after indicted for\nselling rum to the Indiana, and when\nbrought to trial refused to answer any\nquestions, frankly stating that he refuted because ho did not care to eliminate himself. During tha trial a juror\nasked Riol if he was not tho man who\nincited tho lied River Insurrection in\n1872. \"Sair,\" replied Riol with great\ndignity, \"I am zo man who attempted\nto introduce republican institutions in\nznt country.\" As no other witnesses\neould be procured, Riel wns acquitted,\nalthough there was no doubt iu the\nworld ns to his guilt, He was indicted\nat Benton for election frauds at kocky\nPoint, in the spring of 18811, and, boing\nunable to procure bail, was imprisoned ill jail for two or throe months,\nThen ho succeeded in securing bonds-\nmon in the persons uf William II.\nHunt, tho son of the ex-secretary of\nthe navy, and then collector of the\nPort of Port Benton, and Tlmmns\nOutnmings, n former collector. After\nbeing released he went up into Manitoba, and from recent events it is evi-\ndent that he wns engaged in laying lit*\n[dans fur the present insurrection.\nHe returned to Fort Benton and was\ntried, but as the people around Rocky\nPoint led nomadic lives, it was impossible lo obtain any witnesses save\nKiefs half-breed wife nud brother-in -\nlaw. Of course he was not convicted.\n\u00E2\u0080\u0094 Washington Cor, N. Y. Sun.\nTiio Awful Torpedo,\nThe role of thc torpedo boat is terrible; and those who direct its movements aro exposed tu tiio greatest dangers. A single heave shot may shatter\nit to atoms, and whon it approaches\ntho enemy a hail of balls from tho\nmitrailleuses and rilles will do terrible\nexecution on board. Thorofure tho\nmoro fact of embarking on a torpedo\nbont is a guarantee of bravery. Figure\nto yourself tho situation of tho officer\nin command of such a torpedo bont\nwho is ordered to sink a ship of thc\nenemy's squadron. All his surroundings constitute one vast danger. Tho\nvery sea that hides and protects him\nduring the lirst part of his expedition\nmay in another moment toBfl\" his corpse\nhither and thither upon its waves,\nlliu adversary will seek to riddle the\nboat with ft rain of stool, cast iron and\nload. Thu torpedo itself, which carries much terror with it, might bo\ntouched with ft missile and explode,\nbursting tho torpedo bunt.into atoms,\nThe combat commence^. The vessels\nof the licet, have opened lire. Shells\nrain in nil directions. One of mir\ncruisers, cniimnindetl heavily till the\nstarboard sitlo by a fort mounting\ntwelve Krupp cannon, is simultaneously attacked on the larboard side by\none of tho enemy's ironclads, Sho\nhas already suffered severely, nnd her\nposition becomes critical. A must\nsignal from tho adiniial's ship is given;\nand a torpedo boat starts. Thc watchful enemy has observed thu signal,\nHo knows the danger, nnd at onco\nconcentrates nil his tiro upon the little\ngray speck which is shooting rapidly\ntowards him, Three miles separate\nthorn, nnd tho torpedo boat must\nmnke that throe miles ill ton minutes.\nIf it is not sunk before it has traveled\nthat distance, the ironclad is lost.\nTherefore thc dannnnicrs point their\nguns with the most scrupulous care.\nTho first shells puss wide uf the mark;\nbut the aim is rectified, and soon the\nshells fall so near thc torpedo boat\nthat thoy throw the wider over it.\nNow one has fallen right at its prow,\nA geyser of water thirty feet high\nconceals thc torpedo bont; the enemy\nbelieves it has been sunk, and utter a\ntremendous cheer. But thu projectile\nhas only ricuchettcd nnd passed over\nit. The water falls back in rain, aud\nthe brave little vessel reappears till\nstreaming with brine, as though it had\nemerged from tho sea deeps, and rushing on at full steam in the fnce of\ndeath.\nThere are only nine men on the little vessel, and thoy nre going to attack\na sort cf leviathan carrying :m immense crew. \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 It is not the light of one\nagainst ton, but of one against a\nhundred.\nNot a single word is uttered beyond\nthe necessary onlcrs. Those men\nwhom denth already touches with his\nlingers are silent and grave. And do\nnot supposo for :i moment that thoy\ndu not think of tho danger. On the\ncontrary, they think of nothing else.\nBut it is nol of their own danger they\narc thinking, but bf the danger tif\nfailure. Tt is hot'a question of their\nlives, but of the success of tho enterprise. It is essential Hint the torpedo\nboat shall reach thc enemy's Hank nnd\nrescue our cruiser. After that, if thc\ntorpedo boat sinks, su much tho worse.\nEvery nerve is strained, every eye\nis directed toward tho object in view.\nNow tho boat is only live hundred\nyards awny from thc ironclad. The\nlire of the mitrailleuses minifies with\ntiie showers of shells and-swoeps tho\ndeck; everything wooden is splintered\nto atoms with grapeshot. An incessant\ntiro of repeating rirles from the mast\ntops of the ironclad plays over the\ntorpedo bnnl; nnd the balls entering\nthrough the small oUenings in the\ndecks have already disabled three\nmen. They Hu in a corner to which\nthoy were able to drag themselves,\nfor there is no time now to attend\nto thein. They may be thought of in\ntwo iniuutes moro\u00E2\u0080\u0094after the fate of\nall shall have boon decided.\nThe torpedo boat has almost reached\nits enemy. Tlie success uf the expedition is now nssurod, for thc shell\nbatteries arc powerless to harm tho\nturpedo boat at such short range. The\nrifle tire, terrible as it is, cannot sink\nher. It can only kill boiho of her\ncrew; but that is of no groat consequence! Now is the time that the\ncaptain needs nil his surety of eye and\ncoolness of will, nuw is the time when\nhis men must execute orders with the\nrapidity of lightening;, for if the tor\npedo bo fired a second too soon it will\nfail to do its terrible duty, and yet if\nthoro bo a delay of n. moment tho torpedo boat must dash itself to pieces\nagainst thy sides of its mighty adversary.\nNow the boat seems almost ready to\ntouch the enemy's vessel. Hand-grenades Hung upon her deck rubound\nnnd burst; one man is killed; tho captain has recoived a terrible wound in\nthe face; hut, summoning nil Iub\nstrength, he supports himsolf erect\nagainst an iron wall by a sublime effort\nof will. Livid, drenched with blood,\nbut terrible iu his calm resolvo and\nbravery, he keeps his eyo atill on the\nenemy.\n\"Ready! Let her go!\"\nThe awful missile is launched, All\nenormous surge appears in thp water,\nand n frightful, crackling noise is\nhoard, followed by a lorriblo cry of\ndistress; tho pigmy has conquered the\nginnt.\n\"Hard a starboard!\"\nAnd tho little vessel, suddenly\nwheeling around, steams away at full\nspeed while thu enemy's irouchid'siiiks\nto tho bottom.\nTen minutes afterward the torpedo\nboat hnq returned to its post beside\nthe Amirul's vessel\u00E2\u0080\u0094the admiral Bonds\nfor tho captain in order to congratulate him. Ho ia carried to him on n\nbier. Meanwhile the fight goes on,\nA new expedition may prove necessary.\nA provisory captain is at once appointed, and four men to complete tho decimated crew; and thn torpedo boat is\nready to fulfil another mission; it has\nanother band of heroes to direct it.\u00E2\u0080\u0094\nParis Figaro,\n\u00E2\u0080\u0094\u00E2\u0080\u0094-..\u00E2\u0080\u0094 \u00E2\u0096\u00A0\u00E2\u0096\u00A0*-.\t\nA Maine farmer had a wifo who declared sho would never bo weighed.\nOuo day when shu wns iu tho wagon\nhe drove his team on to the hay scales\nin Auburn and had tho whole thing\nweighed without his wife knowing\nwlmt wns going on.
