ANOTHER NursANcg.-We understand that the
Board of Health has not yet suppressed the
bone-boiling establishments and that they are
still permitted to infect the air with their nox-
ious eiiiuvia. The gas manufactures have
been in some measure reformed, and certainly
in hand. In London, where public attention has
recently been called to this subject the authori-
ties are making the most vigorous efforts 10
suppress the nuisance. Our Board of Health
ought TO be engaged in the same work. Il
would be hundredfold more beneficial than
publishing the particulars of every little case
OF so-called cholera.

THE CANADIANS AND THs FENIAS PgI.oNERs-
II appears from the dispatches from Canada
that the government there has decided not TO

excitement subsides. Il is well tha, the Cana

There was great danger that in the haste to
exercise their vengeance tho Fenian prisoners
would have q hasty trial and be executed imme.

vengeance in India. and more recently in Ja-

rosh act would be committed with the Fcaisn

could have prevented dihsculty with this

No CHOLERA IN THE COUNTRY Tits SUMMER.-
II is last becoming the general opinion among
medical men that we are TO have no cholera in
this country this summer Able medical prac
titioners and journals pronounce the character
OF the epidemic changed from what it was in
former years and say that 1t is not 80 apt to
spread As formerly The health Of this city is
unusually good, the continued cool weather is
favorable for health, and should the Board OF
Health discontinue its efforts to frightcn the
people by magnifying every case Of diarrhGa

crimes which so frequently pervade society.
These wretched CRIMINALS had their cases sub
miited by counsel through the various legal
channels to the court OF last resort, and in each
case the conviction and sentence of the court
below have been ratified. We regard this as
wholesome evidence that the loose system where
by great criminals too often escaped the penalty
due to their offences, through legal technicali-
ties. delays and other means known to prac-
titoners of the law, cannot always prevail.
Every fact and every argument which legal
acumcn could suggest was no doubt en-
ployed in behalf of the prisoners, and the
Judgment Of the Court Of Appeals, therefore,
stands not alone perfect in law, but absolutely
unquestonable Justice, then, may take its
course and no man can demur.
In connection with the action of the Cour! of
Appeals the abuse of Executive clemency sug-
gests itself. That it has been most loosely and
in many instances most mischievCusly exer-
cised from time to time there can be no doubt.
The pardoning power of the Governor needs
great restriction, and there is no reason why
the authority now placed at the discretion OF
the Executive should not be transferred to
other hands. For example, why not vest the
pardoning power in the Court of Appeals,
which, like other branches Of the judi
ciary, might exercise a double jurisdiction
and act as Court of Pardons also. Being cog
nizant of all the facts in such cases as are
brought before them the judges would be
better able to discriminate than any single
individual. who very frequently knows nothing
about law and may be influenced very often
by other motives than q strict sense of justice
to the community in the indiscreet exercise Of
lis prcrogative. If this mode is Objectionable
there are many other means which might be
adopted in regulating the pardoning power
besides leaving it 10 the discretion of the Gov
ernor.
The Convention for the revision Of the State
constitution win meet next year, and we recon-
mend this question to their serious consdera-
ton. Among the many duties which will de-
volye upon its members they will probably
find none of more serious importance to the
public than a revision Of the question OF par
doning criminals.

TRADE WITH BRITISH North AMERIcA.-The
Secretary of the Treasury has transmitted to
the House OF Representatives, in obedience
to the call Of that body, a report Of the com
mercial relations iwecn the United States
and the British lonies of America, This
shows that in the year ending June, 1865, the
trade was greater with British North America
than with any other country except Great
Britain herself. The aggregate was over sixty
millions Of dollars. The tonnage clearing
from United States ports for these colonies
was over three and half millions, and the
entrance from them over three millions
The increase of trade over the previous year
had been very great With or without reel
procity treaty the commerce OF countries so
contiguous must continue to increase. To us,
however, this is not of so much importance as
to the colonists; for, while we do moi ignore
the advantages of commerce with them. we
have all the resources within ourselves that
they can furnish and market for our produce
elsewhere
The point to which we would call the atlen-
ton of the colonsts is this that their interests
are more closely bound up with the United
States than with England. They ought. there
fore, not only to be the best neghbors, but
should look forward to incorporation with this
republic If the trade be SO large and valua-
BILE now, with all the restrictions imposed by
duties and otherwise, British America being a
foreign country what w0uld IL he were all
these restrictions removed through annexation
The prosperity Of these colonies would be in
creased immensely. We do not want them;
we have territory enough; but if the colonists
are wise they viii turn their attention to an
nexaton instead of confederation. Sooner or
later it must come TO this. The Fcnians nor
any other people would disturb them thea.
The sooner they prepare for their inevitable
destiny the better for themselves.

Resources Of Farm Manure.

This subject is always in order among
farmers whose soil has been long under
cultivation, and it's fertility partially ex-
bausted. Western farmers occupy vlr-
gin SOIL who few years since thought
there was no use for it, and moved their
barns to get out of the way of its accumu-
lation, begin to see the utility of saving
ard applying it; they find that better
crops are raised with it. | shall not at
tempt to suggest anything new, for it would
seem impossible after all that has been
said and written on the subject but Ire
quent reiteration of similar precepts may
induce some one to adopt better system
of saving and applying his manure. Does
the reader make the most OF his resources
Is there nothing left that can be converted
into fertilizing material? When every re-
source is exhausted, then it is time to re-
sort to commercial fertilizers. How is 1t
with the hog-pen Is that well supplied
with good material to absorb the liquid as
well as ammonia? A free supply will tend
to keep the hogs clean and furnish guam
tity of rich manure.
Then there is the privy, which is too fre-
quently allowed to waste It's ammonia, In
stead of having absOrbents supplied to fix
it. tight vault, into which dry muck,
plaster, loan, &c, may be introduced and
mixed, will supply several loads of pou-
drette, superior to what the market affords,
with little labor. The hen-roost will sup
ply several barrels OF good guano, the quail
ity q which there is no question, when
home manufactured, by supplying dry loan,
plaster, &c, with frequent oveThauling.-
A pit 80 constructed that it may receive all
the slops and wash from the house with
out waste, will, by filling in loan, muck,
fine coal dust, &c, give several loads OF
rich material suitable to be applied to any
garden or field crop. Wood ashes, COM
posted with dry muck or loan, bones bro
ken and mixed in cask with fine loom and
kept constantly wet with urine will dissolve
and make good bone phosphate. Then Of
tentimes animals die from accident or dis
ease, which may be converted into manure
by being cut up and composted with some
of the various absorbents to be found on
every farm. Urine of all kinds is the most
valuable of manures, and should be saved
by having absorbents applied as bedding ;
when it is convenient stables should be so
arranged as to be drained into pits or tanks.
Were every farmer to save what is at pres
ent wasted the inquiry "Where shall | get
fertilizers for my ground, that | may have
the wherewith to grow good crops Z" would
be less frequently heard.-B0Ston CuLtl0a
