TRUST AND LOAN COMPANY OF CANADA.r—The
annual meeting of the shareholders of the Trust and Loan
Company of Upper Canada took place to day. The report
was unanimously carried, and a dividend at the rate of
st per cent less income tax was declared.

THE STARVATION THEoRY.—The oensus returns
show the remarkable fact that the Southern States
were hot only self-supporting in regard to eereals during
the year 1860, when the culture of cotton and tobacco was
in its greatest activity, but that the yield was actually
55,000 bushels more than the consumption. It is reason-
able to assume that since the rebellion the production of
these cereals has been largely increased under the influence
of a prudent foresight on the part of the residents in the
rebel States to make provision against that theory of starv-
ing them by boxing them up closely from the rest of the
world within their own territory, which has long been a
favourite notion with many well-meaning but poorly in-
formed individuals. To crush the rebellion by starving the
10,000,000 of human beings in the rebel States would be an
effective mode of doing so, also more pleasant and humane
than the carnage of the battle-field ; bat, in view of the fact
that their capacity for producing exceeds that of consump-
tion, it will be a slow process, and trying to the patience of
the loyal States. The statistics of our cereal productions
seem to favour the opinion that fighting instead of " starv-
ing" must be relied on for crushing the rebellions—New
York Herald.
