The Journal of Education itoopa to the following: There's nothing like leather, excepting, of course, the upper cruit of the young wife'i first pie. The last letter received from murdered Major Bartellot, under date of June 4, complained of Tippoo Tib's broken faith, and was full of atrange foreboding! ot coming disaster, A wealthy London merchant il repotted as having said: "I alwayi feci happy when I am advertising, for then I know that, waking or sleeping, I have a strong though silent orator Working for me, one who never tires, never makes mistakes, and who is certain to enter the households from which,' if a( all, my trade must come." , Won't you come out here, Mr. London Merchant; we are just dying to shake hands with a happy man of your sort. Speaking of the Northwest crops, it would appear from recent advices that the frost has been more severe on the grain in northern ])akota and Minnesota than in our northwestern country. Very blue accounts are received from south of the line. The other day the receipts of wheat at Minneapolis aggregated 115 car loads, out of which there were 85 cars of rejected. Reports of the Ontario wheat crop grow more favorable every day. The spring wheat is said to be the best ill many years, and the large yield of 35 to 40 bushels an acre is reported by some farmers within, fifty miles of Toronto, east and northeast. Barley, it il mid, will go as high sis 45 bushels to the acre ill lome WilitlllT * The Mail reprints, with comments, the following disconsolate wail of a hungry but whimiical British Columbian t The settler who in the early days objected to Canada owing to the scarcity of marmalade has a friend and a brother in the resident of British Columbia who writes to the Pacific Coast press complaining at the absence of muffins. "We are," he says, 'Pan English community in an English colony, and yet we have no muffins. We hare plenty of able bakers, and yet no muffins. In Now York there are muffins, and in San Francisco there are muffins. How is it that in British Oolumbia there are no muffins 1" The explanation, . of course, is to be found in the Tariff Act. Everybody knows that duties promote production, There are no duties on muffins, therefore we do not niako muffins. Here is a pointer for the ladies, if they wish to do things a TAngMse, you know. The London correspondent of the Toronto Empire says: Among ladiel cricket seems to have become, if possible, more popular than last year, md even titled dames and damsels now handle the bat with as great ease as the racquet. At the Lyric Olub I overheard Lady Kainclill'e expressing a strong desire to be taught, while Lady Oholmon- (leley needed no ."coaching" when once she got before tlie wickets. Lady Beaumont, too, has won laurels in many matches played againit the sterner sex. At Maidenhead lait week there was a cricket match that attracted very large nuniben to the field where it was held; indeed, on one side of the ground there wero several rows of earrings well filled with enthusiastic spectators. Ladies v. Men wore the sides, the men beiug only allowed the use of the loft arm for batting, bowling and fielding, while their right arm was worn in a sling. To the great de- lit,lrt of everyone, not excluding the opposers, the ladies were victorious by three runs. One girl gained undying fame by taking six wickets for twenty-three runs, and another distinguished herself by making seventeen runs, not out. The players were chiefly gowned in serge or. flannel skirts and loose shirts. Two sisters, one of whom wns an admirable "wicket-keep," looked very well in white, with blue shirts: and another pair wore becoming dresses consisting of dark blue serge skirts and loose jackets, with, blue and white stiiped shirts. Large blue straw hats trimmed with red poppies completed the costumes, Miss Monckton, who was in the' olevon, were dark blue, with a white shirt made like a man's, with a stiff front, collar und cuffs, a red serge waistcoat and dark blue coat, Worms c; ii8o fevcmlineai, moaning anil restlessness during Bleep.

Washimotoh, Oot. li-STlie president recommends that' congress, by a joint resolution, or in aome other manner, provide that such Chinese laborers at hare actually embarked on their return to thii country before the prsiage of thit bill miy be permitted to land, lie also recommends the appropriation of an amount named in the rejected treaty to indemnify certain Chinese subjects for damages suffered through violence in remote and comparatively unsettled portions of the country. The president's message says: "The experiment of blending social habit a and' race indiosyncrnsies of Chinese laboring classes with those of tho great body of the people of the United States has been proved by the experience of SO years, and ever tinco the Burlingame treaty of 1808, to be in every sense unwise, impolitic, and injurious to both nationt. With the lapse of lime the necessity for it: abandonment has grown in forco until those having in charge the government! of the respective countries have reiolvod to modify and sufficiently abrogate all those features of prior conventions! arrangements which permitted the coming of Chinese laborers to United States. To such an extent has successful violation of the treaty of 1880 and the laws enacted for its execution progressed, that courts in the Paci6c states have been for some time put overwhelmed by tbe examination of catei of Chine'ie liboren who ue charged with having entered our ports under fraudulent certificates of return, or who seek to est iblith by perjury a claim of prior residence, tsuch a demonttration of the inoperative and inefficient condition of the treaty and the' law bai produced! deep elated aad increasing discontent among the people of the United States, and eipeuially with Ihe residents of the Pioiuo coast. This hot induced me to omit no effort lo find nn effeoiunl remedy for Ihe evili complained of, and to answer Ihe earnest popular demand for absolute exeluiion of Chinete laborer!, having objects and purposes unlike our own, and wholly disconnected with American citizenship."

T..*) Bmlg $titieh iSoliimbian T.esdar Evening, Oct. s. isss- Tho Oh'qggo Timet, becoming impatient Wtnoiv the worst, liniAcen boefimialing the following interesting and rather daring experiment with a view to ascertaining the drift of opinion on tho presidential contest. , It [lent out a circular to a11 it's recognized country oorres- "prmdent^-ralKng for the1 names of persons who will this year change their votes, ,with thou- reasons for , .changing, the inquiry to. be careful and impartial, misrepresenting no ono. ' From the mass of returns sent in thoso wore selected for publication, and those only, that complied with the calls for names and reasons. A 'close analysis of the retui ns Shows ''.(95 answers from persons in widely- separated counties of Illinois and Indiana, and by their repqrted occupations—professional men, manufacturers, mechanics,. farmers, employers, tvnd laborers—thoy represent in very fair proportions the constituent parts of one community of five hundred voters. Considering now, what their vote was in 1884, and what it may be expected to be in 1888, the count shows : 1SS+. ISSS. Cleveland 171 I Cleveland.,..250 Blaiuo 300 I Harrison 150 St. John lOlFisk 70 Eutlei' 8 I Labor 4 It must be borne in mind, says an exchange, commonting on this, that 'every ono of these votes is changed. Not one of tlie 171 who voted for ■ Cleveland in 1884 vote for him this year, but their places are supplied by 139 others. Tho deduction from this is that the tarill question is causing a prodigious turnover of votes and that in tbe agricultural districts Cleveland will make very large gains over his vote in 1884. . In. the Weekly Columbian of this week, published Wednesday morning, appears detailed and interesting reports (principally telegraphic) of tho various local agricultural exhibitions held, in Westminster district during the last few days, the same reports appearing in the dailies. The Chilliwhack and Surrey exhibitions are reported in full, but it was found; impossible, even by telegraph, to get the prize list of the Ladner's Landing fair in time for publication either in Tuesday's daily or Wednesday's weekly. Our special representative on the grounds has, however, telegraphed a very full desoriptivo account of the genera! features of this show, which appears in both the above-mentioned papers. The prize list will appear in the next daily and weekly. A careful perusal nnd comparison of the various reports cannot but prove interesting. It will bo seen that while various portions of the district surpass each other slightly in difi'erent directions, there is a very high stnndard of ex- j? Icnce apparent throughout. One is almost forced to the conclusion that were an average exhibit from any of these shows transported across the continent and entered against similar products in the east, British Columbia would score a point, every time. The mention about peaches, grapes;. etc., is very gratifying, as proving beyond e. doubt that these delicious fruits, not generally supposed to be within the large catalogue of our fruit-raising possibilities, can bo grown and refined in this district to perfection. The various other fruits, the ■ different vegetables, grains, and the products of the dairy, all make a splendid showing. Au unmistakable advance, too, is being made; nnd great apparent, interest manifested, in the introduction of and raising thoroughbred .and graded stock. A . feature worthy of special mention in connection with nil the local shows was the creditable floral display made by the ladies, ns also the evidences of their taste and skill in the innumerable sorts of artistic fancy work. Tho comparisons, too, with previous years are very encouraging, giving proof positive that satisfactory process is being made in agricultural, as in other directions, throughout the district and tho province.. As wo havo before re- niniW. the products of British Columbia, agricultural and otherwise, speak for, themselves and the country that .produces them, in unmistakable terms. Wc congratulate the farmers of the districts upon the unqualified success of their various local exhibitions. In no other way, perhaps, i can the true nature and capacities of the province bo so well disclosed, and the stigma which tho thoughtless and tho uninformed have cast, upon our agricultural fame, be removed. i To what heights hnd depths, literally, will not the reckless determination to gratify the already overindulged sensationalism of this generation, carry the obliging caterers to the public teste 1 Balloon ascensions, coupled with the "parachute net," are now tlie rage back east, both in Hit) States and Canada. No outdoor public occasion is considered complete now unless some daring leronaut risks being converted into a jelly fish for tho publio delectation. Tlio trick is to go up a thousand, fifteen hundred, or two thousand feet in the air, seated in u little basket attached to the lower end of an umbrella bundle—tho umbrella being,. of course, built on a large scale, then to cut the ropeB connecting tho aforesaid umbrella with the balloon above, and drop ,likc a plummet? toward the .earth. Thfe, uiiibrcllijjl technically ktioi,vu as n pfriichuto, tt, supposed tov j-rodua'ly expand anft check the lightning descent, bringing" the lerial voyageur gently lo tho ground. Oases have been known where it didn't expand or open, owing to somo entanglement of the ropes appertaining, and the result was almost too horrible to imagine. Only, the other, day,, the paraohute of.oneof.tJiesFa'.high-Byirs failed to work until he had fallen abaut five hundred feet, when it fortunately on me to timeandsnvedfrom anything more severe tlian a pretty lively jarring. A brother nironnut not long ago dropped into a lake, umbrella and all, and was pioked up'by a boat Our readers will not need to be told what our despatches informed them the other day, of the unfortunate young man of Ottawa, who failed to let go of a ropo soon enough at a balloon ascension nt'a fall'exhibition in that city recently, and was carried up a thousand foet, from which dizzy height he dropped to tlie cruel earth, in view of the assombled thousands, and was: literally pulverized. He is said to have dropped feet first.for a portion of. the distance, but finally turned over, striking the earth flat on his back. Observers noticed him during bis rapid descent passing his arm over his face, as though wiping the prcspira tion from his brow,. Such a scone would probably only stimulate.tho appetito of the crowd for moro horrors. Tho leronaut came soiling down shortly aftorwards safely, hanging onto his big umbrella.. At another fair, this one at a place called Centreville, near Kalamazoo, Michigan, held a littlo over a week ago, the following sensational scene was witnessed: The crowd had gathered to see Professor liartholo. mow make a balloon ascension. Everything was in readiness for the event, and the word had been given to the men holding the guy ropes to stand firm and let go quickly at a given signal. An old man named Mark Sanborn; of Burr Oak, was adjusting the ropes of the paraohute with which Bartholomew was to descend, when the balloon, started off, and one of. the parachute ropes became entangled about Sanborn's leg above the knee, carrying him up 1,500 feet, head downward. Sanborn struggled herd to free himslf as he shot upward through tbe air, but to no avail. The crowd was horrified, and all expected to see him fall to the earth and be crushed to piecei, After the balloon had reached its highest altitude it 'descended, landing Sanborn Safely astride a rail fence, where ho- was rescued, more scared than hurt, Bartholomew saw tiuthehadapassengertrailing behind him as he went up, and told the unlucky mon to "hang on" and he would try to bring the balloon to land, which he did. Sanborn then snid, " I wouldn't go up in that way again for all Centreville. When, oh, when, shall poor British Columbia have balloon ascensions nnd big umbrellas—and bigger fools—to draw crowds at her annual fall exhibitions! The intelligent reader will see that in.no other, way can a really successful fall exhibition be expected. . ....

Owing to the many exhibits, all of which ore worthy of individual mention, it would scarcely be fair to particularize, but the display, made by Mr. Thos. MoNeeley's Jubilee Farm, a whole exhibition in it-elf, is worthy of a few notos. Two of the turnips weigh 41 and C9 pounds respectively, or an average of two-thirds cf a bushel eich, while tho other four will average 30 lbs. each, a grand total of 200 lbs. for six turnips. Suoh figures speak for themselves. There aro several other exhibits of turnips whioh will avenge 25 lbs. each.

The displays of carrots, beets, parsn'is, cabbages, cauliflowers, onions, etc, aro excellent iu every instance, and everyone of them are worthy of prizes. Mr. Jas.
