British Columbia first attracted ittoiitioii on account of its rich mines. Tho gold nf Fraser river and'Otriboo tempted thousands of people to 1*1030 shores, ind the value of the precious metal taken from our mines from 1858 to 1882 amounts to $46,685,334. But gold mining to-day furnishes employment to only a. comparatively small portion of our population. The agriculturist, the stook raiser, the lumber- Dan, the fisherman, and. the coal miner represent interests, quite nr important ns the gold hunter. Nevertheless, gold will for a long lime form an important factor in onr resources. This province abounds in gold. Almost everywhere indications of its existence mty be found. It is. scattered all the nay flora the boundary line to Alaska, and from the Rooky mountains to .the waters or the Paoifio, Every person who has prospected to any oxtent in British Columbia bblieves that there are large deposits of gold in many places whioh hnvo not yet been discovered, The rough and mountain. ous character of the country makes prospecting extremely difficult and mining expensive. But when out- railway system has been developed, and our public roads have been improved and extended, tliese obstacles will gradually disappear and we have no doubt mining operations will be oarried on over u vast extent of territory. From a return of tiie mineral products of tho United States last year we find that coal heads the list, iron coming second and the precious metals next Tbe value of coal mined in the TJ. 8. in 1882 is ,146,- 632,181 i iron, ,106,336,429; silver, ,46,800,000; gold, ,32,500,000; copper, ,16,038,091; lead, ,12,- 624,550. The total value of minerals, including petroleum and stone, il put down at the enormous sum of ,445,912,406. We have not a country as large as the United States, but it is probably very much richer in minerals than a similar tret anywhere else on the continent. Ih view of out- extensive deposits of gold, silver, iron, lead, coal, and other minerals, tho exploration and development of this province art matters whioh should engage the most serious attention of th. government and capitalists. We beliovo tht present government are disposed â¢to oncourago this exploration and development s "They propose to epend large sums in road-building, tad to offer every facility to those who engage in intelligent mining operations. But these resources must be developed by individual enterprise. As soon as the Canadian Paoifio Railway has been completed to the ocean we may confidently look for a large influx of person's from the east seeking for schemes where they may invest their capital, and we know of no part; of the continent wliere more opportunities will be found than in British Columbia, The British iot§*k<n%t_ nt To Rent VOLUME 24"'' NEW WESTMINSTER, B. O., WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 31, 1883. NUMBER 35 A Great Age. The Wheat Belts. MIENTrflO ANAIY8IS OF WHEAT 3PECIMEH8. Washington, Oot. li.â Professor Clifford Richardson, of the Department ot Agriculture, has just completed a two- years' task in the analysis pf nearly 2,000 specimens of wheat from various par^t of the country and comparing them with each other and with European wheat. He says that thu main â ailing of our wheat is a deficiency in albuminoids, whioh are regarded as tho most valuable portions of the grain. I Among our wheats the highest percentage of albuminoids wns 17.15, while a Russian wheat from Minnesota contained 24.5(1 por cent., twenty-four different apt-eitiK'iis averaging 10,48 per cent., tht In went having 10.08 per cent. â v In tho Eiut our wheat is the poorest, falling bulnw tho general, average in albuminoid* and ash and in the size of the grain. A rugiiliir gradation of improvement from coat to west is found until tho Pacifio cuust iti readied, where thore is a mn.fl ruinnrknhlu falling off. in everything but tlio ahe uf the grain, It in ia tlw pnuntry hi'tween the Mississippi nnd the mountains .ihat the best grain is producod. The middle west, represented by Michigan, Kentucky and TeiinuMeo, holds ilti intermediate- position butwHi'it this distriot and that on the Atlnntu coast. The latter shows plainly that Ms soils have beon more or less worn out, tlw middle west that It is loosing its fertility aud the far west tho fact thut it contains those stores of plant foud nnd nitrogen â¢specially, which make a rich grain, A LIVING NOVA SCOTIAH BORN IN IBS. Pictou Newt',â Thore is a imu at present living at Waugh/s Rivor.tlirco miles from Tatamagoutjlie village, in the county of Oolohestej, who is probably older than any other man hi Nova Scotia. His name in Jdin Smith. He was bom in the Shetland Islands, Scotland, in the year .1705, and is therefore just 118 yean uf ago, having outlived by nearly half a century tho period allotted to nun. His father was a Scotchman, but his mother was of foreign extraction, ae enjoyed few educational privileges1, having spent his early years as a sllepherd bay in the highlands of Scotlurd. Mr. Bmitii is of medium height, bti) k very muoh stooped and greatly emanated. Those who remember seeing hin about 25 or 40 years ago say he is much^siiialler every way uow than at (hat time, and greatly reduced both in bone and muscle. His eyesij-At is tolerably good; he can see distinctly at a great distance and can distinguish objects on a mountain six or Buven miles distant with greater ease .than most young pepons. In fact ho can soo better at t-iat .distance thau vory much nearer.' He is of courso very dull in hearing, as might be supposed. His teeth wen all gone 40 years ago, but those who are more intimately acquainted with him affirm that his third set are now fast appearing. His other senses are comparatively good. His mental faculties aft not much impaired either, except that he is getting rather peovish and self-willed, and somewhat childish in his. conversation. When well advanced in life Mr. Smith.married a comparatively young lady, who, though now on'tho verge of a ripe old age, is nearly two score years youngor than hor husband. ! â¦ , A Car Driver's Romance. "I used to think it my duty to cut 'em -with the whip, and I took satisfaction in striking hard, but I wouldn't strike a boy now for the best thousand dollars over coined.!' He was a car driver, and his attention had been called to three or four hoys stealing a ride on the rear platform. "Yes, I was a sort of terror on this route to tho boys," he continued, after a pause..- "Not one of the crowd could put his foot on the step and get away without a cut from the whip. Big or little, rough or gontle, I served all alike; and if the passengers scowled at me for slushing a little kid of sewn or eight, I solaced myself with tho reflection that it was my duty." A passenger was dropped at tho corner, and as the car started up again the driver went on: "Well, one day when the boys had bothered me more than usual I dodged through the car and found a little bit of a chap, not over seven yoars old, seated ou the lower step. Be was all humped over nud softly crying about something or other. At another time X might have felt pity, but the boys had got my mad up, and what did I do but givo the littlo chap a cut with the lash and call out in such a voice tliat off he tumbled into tho dust. I saw him rise up and limp away, and thore was something in the look he gave ine that I shan't forget'in a hurry. Whoa! now!" The car stopped to tako on two ladies, and presently the driver re- mimed: "Do you know that I felt so conscience-stricken that I kept looking for that bey on every trip, calculating to make up with him and secure his forgiveness for my brutality. I did not see him again until the afternoon of the second dny." "And what did ho say)" was natod, na the driver hesitated. "He was in his coffin!" was there- ply. "It was his funeral procession, which stopped my car for two or three minutes. That boy was ill: when he tried to steal his way home with me, and death was not twenty-four hours away when I lashed him and chucklod over the way he rolled into tho street! I tell you, sir, when'I saw his colli i in the hoarse, aud caught a look from the mother, whioh seemod to charge'me with being hiB murderer, I got a stab at mv heart that pains me yet, and I wouldn't strike another buy if the reward was to be the whole line and its oufit." . .â«Â»_~ .â Brooklyn Bmdob a Failure.âThe Brooklyn bridge wus opened with a blare of trumpets, but it is not proving either a fiscal or a popular benefit. It has been in operation.nineteen weeks. Its average earnings hnve been 8626 a Uny. Tho total earnings were $60,003, the net receipts being 817,74192. If tho business does not improve the annual nut earnings would be about $50,- 000, whereas tho interest charge alone is three-quarters of n million annually. The bridge, then, is to remain a great publio burden. It is tuo high up in the world.â Chicago Paper, â A health journal advises: "Do uot Ho. on tho left aide " This is a very proper admonition.

I Public Boads. Few things are of greater importance to a farming population than good roods traversing the district and connecting with the market town, so that farmers can readily haul to market and dispose of the groin and other produce of their farms. The late governments achieved a great deal for the province in thiadi- rcction during their periods of offlce, both on the island and mainland. It iB doubtful whether botter roods can be found in any of tho older provinces than those which afford* acceaa to the rural districts here, moro particularly around thia city.âVictoria Standard. With the first sentence of tho ahove extract we cordially agree; with the last we havo uo «.ul, tn find; bnt from the second we decidedly dissent. The Coiumbian has frequently pointed out the importance of good roads, and it has frequently complained of the wretched condition of the roads throughout the mainland. Vancouver bland may have very excellent roads. Of that we cannot speak intelligently: no doubt the Standard cun. But when the Standard undertakes to persuade its readers that the late government "achieved a great deal for the province in this direction, both on the island and mainland," it undertakes a task which will be extremely difficult It was the badness of the reads on the mainland of British Columbia, and the gross carelessness shown for the convenience of the people, that helped to defeat the government at the last general election. For years the people had been' asking for roads and bridges which wonld enable them to reach the markets. But ths government refused to make adequate appropriations for that purpose. They had on hand the dry-dock, where $340,- 000 of the provincial revenues were swallowed up, and thero was scarcely anything left for roads. The government refused to give up the dry- dock as a provincial work, and permitted the roads and bridges to fall into decay and destruction. The people bore the neglect until patience ceased to be a virtuo, and at the last election they declared that both the government and the dry- dock must go; and they did go. It is to a great extent the road policy of the present government which has made them so muoh more popular in tho rural districts than their predecessors were. During the first session of parliament they made large appropriations for road work, and declared that the provinoial revenues unjustly spent on the dry-dock would be taken to make roads and bridges and other permanent improvements on the mainland, where they were so urgently needed. During the past few months we have come in contact with a large number of farmers and others from various settle ments, and the feeling is almost unanimously one of gratitude for what the government have already done in roadmaking. But only one- half the appropriations for roada and bridges has been expended this year, Next spring the other halt will be spent, supplemented by another appropriation which we have reason to believe will be very liberal. We do not think there is a journal or a prominent man on the mainland that will undertake to compliment the late government on their road policy. At the publio meeting held in this city lately for the evident purpose of securing an expression ot publio opinion adverse to the present government, the principal grievance which occupied the opposition orators was the shocking condition of onr roads. But this grievance lay against the late gov- ernnent, and could not be brought against those now in office. So plainly did thia appear that these people wisely refrained from asking an expression of the meeting, and no vote was taken. The Victoria Standard is not always scrupulously correct in its statements, but ordinary prudence would have suggested that the interests of the party it supports would best be served by maintaining a discrete silence on the subject of public roads. island Railway Lands. The people of Nanaimo continue to entertain themselves with public meetings, and to pass resolutions denonncing somebody. The lut meeting passed two resolutions, one condemning the settlement bill and tlw other instructing their representatives to rota against it The first resolution declares that the con. it-motion of the island railway is Mt in the interest of Vancouver Island, becauso the coal lands will fall into the hands of a monopoly. It seems to us the people who passed this resoluion did bo without sufficiently considering all the circumstances. Victoria city and district, and the district of Esquimalt, may fairly be said to contain a very large majority of the people of Van- cover Island. These constituencies have all along been telling the world that the island railway must be built. No other measure would satisfy them. They may have been urging the construction of this work in ignorance of the consequences which would result; but that is their own affair. This one fact has been mado prominent, that a majority of the peoplo on Vancouver Island were exceedingly anxious that the railway should bo built. For the purpose of seeming the construction of that road the provincial government, in 1873, reserved the island railway belt. This tract of land was conveyed to the Dominion government for railway pur- noses, just as the mainland belt was conveyed for a similar purpose. But the Dominion government determined tbat they would not construct the island railway as n governfnent work. They had the lands, and they agreed; to hand these lands over to a private company, together with a cash tonus of $750,000 to secure the construction of the road. That company happens to be repre- by Mr. Dunsmuir, whose miners happin just now to be on strike at Na aimo. We are afraid these two fa ts may have had some influence in haping the resolutions recently pas«d at the Nanaimo meeting. However that may be, it seems beyond controversy that the island railway lands were not the property! of the province, but belonged to the Dominion. The Dominion exercised its right of possession and gave them away for the railway. The people of Nanaimo cannot fairly find fault with the disposal of these lands. So far as we are aware they entered no protest against their being conveyed to the Dominion in the first placo; and through all tho years intervening since 1873 no voice has been raised against the arrangement The whole belt â¢â¢a offered last year to the Clemen's Co. in consideration of their building the railway, and we have yet' to learn that the people of Nanajmo olferod any protest against that arrangement Surely the Dunsmuir Co. are quite as much interest-d 'â¢â the progress of the ie Clements Co. were. The bill was passed by the house under the impression that it would give general satisfaction. Such an impression wss perfectly natural under the circumstances, and we are afraid it is now too late for Nanaimo to protest.: The settlement bill includes not only the island railway, but the dry-dock and the opening np of tho railway belt on the mainland. The government and tbe house have iledged themselves to that bill, and it is very difficult to see How the pledge can now be willu'rv.vn So far as wo have had an opportunity of ascertaining, we believe the mainland is almost unanimous in favor of the settlement bill. The island railway clauses cannot be expunged without destroying the whole hill, and to that the people would never consent It may be that the people of Nanaimo arc willing to let tho island railway go, if the lands can revert to the province and be opened to settlement As a matter of fact we believe auch an arrangement would be much better for the country, But a majority of the blenders would not agree to such an arrangement, and the majority must rule. We objeet moat emphatically to any tampering with the settlement bill, unless the people of Vancouver Island are prepared to release tbe Dominion government from all obligations with respect to the island railway, abandon the $750,000 bonus, and rest satisfied with retaining possession of the lands. 'Then the dry- dock and mainland belt would alone constitue the settlement bill. This is the only alteration in the agreement that tbe mainland will permit. B.G. PENITENTIARY.

Well, I have left him better, in a -calmer, healthier -stato of mind, though he is terribly cut up, poor fellow. I took him home and talked and argued with him, and aa aoon as he came to himsolf lie -wrote a letter to her, and made me promise to deliver it.'1 "A letter, Horwald?" â **Yesy and he wished me to read it; auch a brief, beautiful prayer for for- fiveness. I stopped at the cottago as passed and left it." *'At Rose Cottage? whom did you see?" I asked eagerly. "Only Arthur; he was standing in the porch, and I beckoned him down to the gate. I have been talking for nearly an hour." "How does he take it Herwald?' **As I knew ho would; all the blood of the Vaughan's is up, and a littlo of his mother's pride besides. Ho is hot, " indignant, won't hear of any excuse, and blames me in tho bargain." "You, my poor Quixote," said Dudley. *'Yes, it has given ine such a confounded headache; and ho is such an obstinato beggar, dives down into tho root of the matter, and swears by yea and nay. OE course we made it up, old Arthur never bears a grudge; besides, the intimacy is uot owing to nae; the mischief was done when I waa abroad." "And what about Milly? yoii havo not told me that." "Ho says she behaves beautifully, and is quite calm and resigned. Oh, poor follow, if you had seen his eyes brimful of tears when he told mo how ho had come home and found hor lying on her little whito bed j*' and here Herwald broke off and sighed heavily. "I may go to-morrow and see her?" "Oh yos, you must if you want to see hor again; Arthur is going to take her away to North Wales, for a change for a week or two." "That is very nice, then the money â will come in capitally." "What money?" ho said, and looked at trie rather odly, I thought, but I did not explain, for tho tea eqippage was just brought in, and tho clock at that moment striking twelve, Herwald insisted on my retiring. "All this worry," he said, holding nay hands, aud looking anxiously at rae; "all this worry is undoing the week's good, as if you have not trouble enough at home without my friends' affairs bothering you out here." I tried laughingly to get my hand away, but he held mc fast. "You have done two deeds of mercy for me to-day, and I have not thanked you "for thom; Heaven bless you, Nell!" When I got into my littlo room, I shaded my lamp and threw open the window. The park was lying in a flood of moonlight; the trcos met dark nnd still against the dark bluo of the sky; peace, tranquillity, and sacred stillness reigned around; and as I stood I whispered, half aloud: 4* Be the day weary, be the daylong, Presently ringeth to evensong." The following day, at the same hour, we rode over to Rose Cottage, and, as "before, Herwald and Dudley went on to Holly-bush Farm, promising to call for me in an hour's time. I entered the silent house; no tripping step, no mirthful laugh greeted me; tho littlo parlor was vacant, and so was the doll's house kitchen; and eo I passed out on to the tiny lawn. Hilly was sitting on the grass under tho mulberry-tree, picking lavender, she, sprang up when she saw me, and ran towards me with a low cry. "How kind of you to como and wish me good-bye; how very, very kind, Nellie!" She looked as if she had not slept much, and the brightness of her eyes was dimmed with weeping; but it was not this alteration in her appearance that struck me so painfullly, as she stood holding my hands and speaking in that sad subdued voice; and when she drew me to that low green bench, where we had aat that evening, and placed herself at my feet, and played mechanically with my whip and gloves, I looked down on her and marveled at the change. All thai was child-like bad faded awayâall that was womanly, and gentle âand long-suffering had taken its place. "And so you aro going away, Milly?" **Yes, to-morrow; Arthur thinks it better, and I am willing to do as ho wishes; we ara going for a month." "And what then, Milly?" She drooped her head a moment, as she answeredâ. "And then home, and quiot days, and long evenings, when Arthur's â work is done. I dare say it will bo lonely at first, but I shall soon get used to it;" and the brave little face lifted itself up in the sunlight. "Dear Milly, will you come to mo, to Sunnyside/ If you will, we will lore you dearly, and take care of you, and in our happy home you will soon regain your old spirits." She smiled faintly as she shook hor head. "Dear, kind Nellie; but it cannot be yet." "Why not?" I urged; "will not Arthur spare you?" 'â¢Oh, yes, too gladly, I am sure; but I cannot bear that after his long, bard day's work he should come home and find empty rooms, no one to speak to him, and -make him comfortable; and even if that could be arranged, I feel that I could not he happy at Sunnyside, not just yet, but Iu a little While I may." "Well, then, come to me at Christmas. Herwald will be with us, and Katie, and Lucy Graham; come then, and help us to forget our vacant places." She clasped me gratefully. "I should like to, but wo have promised to go to Liverpool, to Arthur's god mother, and as she is very rich, she may do something for him, and so we ' dare not despise* such an opportunity, but may I writo to you when I can come? perhaps I might in the Easter holidays, you know, when Arthur goes again to Oxford." "Any time, dear, it matters littlo to ine, only the sooner tho better; but now I have only half an. hour to spare, and I have much to talk about." I told her what had passed between me and Mr. Clive; and when Iliad finished, she drew the letter half out of her bosom, and showed it me. "I "hall keep it till I die, and then it shall be buried with ine;" and she carefully replaced it. "Nellie, do you know he is going away?" "No, indeed, but I am glad of it; where?*' "To Italy, I think, and Fergusson is to take the duty for six months; Arthur is going to givo up our seat's at church. Ah, you cannot think how angry he was yeaterday. , "Herwald told mo." - "He will not be angry any more, it makes mo too unhappy; how can any one be hurt with Hubert?" and ahe folded her hands lovingly over,tlm place where the letter lay, and smiled a little smile to herself. "Will you writo to mo, Milly?1 "To bo suro I will, and you will send mo long answers, all about yourself and Sunnyside." "I will try what I can do, but I am not a good correspondent, I leave most of that to Lome, she is the clever woman of the family." J unt then a long shadow fell on the gross; it was Arthur's, and at the same moment I heard ths hoofs of the returning horses. Arthur's blue eyes sparkled through his spectacles, as ho warmly grasped iny hand. "Mibs Mortimer, I owe you a debt of gratitudo for tho Mildness you have shown my little girl," and he clasped-her fondly as ho spoke. "Sho tolls mo she has already learnt to look upon you as her best frienJ." Milly smiled up at me. "Nellie knows what I think of her; oh, thero they come, and you must go," and bIio clung to mo with long lingering kisses. My eyes were dewy enough as I followed Arthur, and when I had wished him good-bye, sho camo out and stood in tho porch, and waved to me with fluttering hands till I was out of sight. * * * * * * It was. tho last day of our Btay at Hurst Hall. I had formed a resolution the preceding night to rise early and revisit all my favorite haunts, and ns soon as the sun shone brightly and warmly in at my window, and the birds began (their waking twittering, I roso, and after a hasty toilette, crept noiselessly down the eastern corridor, so as not to disturb the sleepers. But I was not to escape unperceived, the sound of my unhallowed footsteps arousod tho [wary hounds; first Leo came and pieped at me suspiciously through tho curtain, and then Max, and aftor satisfying themselves that I was no unmainerly intruder, followed tne with man t demonstrations of joy. Early as I wis they were-flooding the tessolatcd pa ement of the great hall bolow; and oie sleepy-eyed domestio, stifling a yam, opened the garden door, through which I and my self- imposed guardians pnssod into the pure morning air beyond. The dew lay heavy on grass and bush, and a delicious freshness and coolness pervaded the air, sweet with the fragrance of opening flowers. As I entered the park, the sense of absolute stillness was marvellous, nothing crossed our path but a startled hare, or. a fawn answering to its mother's call, and no thine stirred tho slumbrous silence save tho lark's voice caroling iu tho morning blue, or tho bleat of some .distant sheep. One after another I bade farewell to each pleasantly associated spot; the wild garden, the trout stream, the fernery where ws had worked, tho arbor in the bowling- green where I had sat and musedâ bado them farewell with the fondness one attaches to spots where many happy hours have been passed, regarding them with " The feeling of sadness and longing, Which is not akin to pain, And resembles sorrow only As the mist resembles rain." - It was certainly rather hard to brace myself up to the home-work after the delicious "far niente'' and ease of the last two months; to go back to the old ntche, and become one of the plodders again in tho work-a-day world; but if hard for me, doubly so to Dudley, to whom was tho burden and heat of tho day. Returning to the houso, some two liours later, I came upon Horwald in the chintz parlor, playing with Sprite nn the hearth-rug. He listened with a. faint smile as I recounted,, well-pleased, my morning ramble. "So you are sorry to leave Hurst Hall, Nellie; well, I can only say you are not half bo much as 1 am to lose you. I wish our lazy lie-a-bed had joined your stroll, if he could have gathered such roses as those." "Dudley not down yet?" Herwald gave me one of his comical looks. "We prolonged our last library talk to too late an hour, and the boy has the grace to bo sleepy this morning; oh, thero he is," as Dudley entered with eyes only half awake. ' "Yet a little more sleep and a little more slumber," cried Herwald, putting Sprite in his pocket, in which position Bhe usually took her breakfast. "Halloa 1 what is all this rubbish, Nellie?" Rubbish, indeed! I put them carefully aside, the relics of my morning rambles; only a leaf from tho fernery, a smooth white pebble from the stream, a forget-me-not from the bank where Milly and I had aat, a pheasant's feather picked up on a mossy knoll; but thoy were precious to me, and to be treasured as suoh. A softened gravity stole over our young host's face, as he watched me put them up. "I can hardly believe you are going to leave mo to-day, really going away." -"Oh, that is not tho wocBt," replied Dudley; "the thing is, I am going home a spoiled man. Nellie, this fortnight has ruined mo for the factory." "You aro jesting, surely?" "On my honor, no; I always disliked the treadmill, and now I shall hate it ten times more." "Aro you really in earnest, Dudley?" "Why, what big eyes, little Wolf! don't oat me up. Look here, Quixote, this girl has grown up with the notion that I love tho factory, love the grinding, oily, musty old plnce; juat because I have never grumbled or complained, or talked grandly,, like 'the Bruce." "And you disliked it all this time?" "Dislike is a strong word, ma petite; one must not speak ill of the bridgo that carries you over tho water; but I own I have nover liked it; mid if the truth bo told, never shall. Why, as to Bruco, for all his lordly palaver, it's shallow humbug, overy bit of it; tho fellow adores the place, liken, nay really enjoys its bustle, and din, ay, and the downright hard work tiio, and thero is nut a better man of business broathing, though I Buy it,âbut for mo " "Weil, Dudleyr "Woll, I would fain bo working on â my own broad acres, sowing and reaping harvest*, and eating the fruit thereof; bo a farmer, country gentleman, what you will, so that it bring plenty of healthy out-of-door exercise; mind, I don't aspire to Hurst Hall, something humbler would content me, even Abbey Farm: anything to work on the green earth and under the open «ky." ne.
