the propriety of parental government
and protection until the offspring has
arrived at years of discretion, and is
competent to provide for itself. Thus
far the parallel holds good, and we
might add that the pride and and
ambition" of independence so lauded
by the Democrat, has thousands of dana
aging illustrations in social life, where,
in the hymenial sofiening OF the brain
that Immediately succeeds the first ap-
pearance of beard or long dresses, "am-
bition's" love stricken tenderlings go in
for organization into the state of matri-
mony, and set up poverty shop to in
cumber themselves.with oppressive res
possibilities ere they have sufficient
maturity, experience or substance to
maintain them, and live like beggars to
regret their ambitious" folly. The
proposition to cut loose from the Federal
Government because eve have received
$40 1000 for a penitentiary and this is all
we may expect to receive" is on par
with the familiar parable of the "Prod-
igal Son." The repeated reference to
California's " taking hold of q railroad
to which, as a State, she has never Civ
en- any material assistance. has no bear
ing upon the case of Montana The
mere difference in population and wealth
would enable her to have done immense
ly more than she has. either as State
or Territory. Our reference to the vote
of Nevada was based upon an article in
the Reese River ReUeille, correcting the
very error upon which the Democrat
founded its argument in that particular.
In conclusion, the Democrat assails US
for not making "a judicious estimate. y
This, we presume, refers to our estimate
of population. because the property val
uation is admitted, and is not subject
of conjecture. 1t refers to our estimate
of %, 600 population in contradistinction
to the 65,000 estimate of Governor
Smith. As journalist, we do not con.
ceive ii is our duty, any more than it is
wise and honest, to disguise the truth
in the eye, and make the most of them
The estimate of Governor Smith was
made by computing five white inhabit-
ants and o ne indian to each voter at the
last election. That kind of theory will
answer we'll enough for buncombe away
from home, but it willno endure a close
analysis here. On the first of Jan uary
1867, the census returns of Montana, as
taken by the U. s. Revenue officers in
accordance with their instructions, was
10000. We submit it to the observant
is the population more than A 800 larger
to-day When the memorials 10 Con
gress are presented. the question will
arise as to population, and the few am
bilious politicians who are agitating this
matter will fad that the number of in
habitants will be the first thing ascer
tanned, and it will not be upon the sever
to one theory, but upon the census o
the authorized officers of the Govern
ment. The result will settle the ques
ton of convention and State organi
zation negatively.

The signs of thaw in the North Riding
of Yorkshire indicated on Saturday night
were but brief, aud northeast gales with
snow and hail have continued since, being
particularly severe near the coast on Sun
day. The demand for Goals is greater than
has been known for very long time, and
on Sunday "colliers" were run throughout
the day, answering the double purpose OF
pilot. engines and coal supply trains. On
Monday morning the first trains all got
through, and the North and East Riding
lines are fully open for traffic, with the eX-
ception of the Hull and Scarborough, OF
which one line is yet blocked in places,
There is every indication of a continuance
of storm, and the distress thereby OCCASION
ed in the agricultural districts is great,
there being no occupation for the laborers.
The borough bailiff of Nation convened a
meeting of the inhabitants yesterday morn
ing, at which public subscription was
resolved upon to supply the pressing wants
of the poor, and provide temporary employ
ment for the laboring population. The
weather is milder, but the streets of NAL
ton are banked with snow from three to
four feet deep. A great flood is anticipated
when the thaw comes.-London Times Tan

The Food Question ia EUgiand-
a Short Crop.

The London Times says, according to cal
culations by an experienced agriculturalist,
the food question until next harvest stands
as follows:
The annual consumption of wheat and
flour in the United Kingdom may be taken
at Is, 100000 quarters, OF which our average
home growth is l20OO0O0 quarters. The
crop of 1866 is one-eighth deiicient-name-
", 100000 quarters, leaving 5000 900
quarters to be imported between harvest
1866 and harvest 1867. The average annual
cost of wheat and flour for the last three
years has been (at Ais per quarter) f37,-
025 800, ana the probable cost of the cur
rent years consumption (at 5Ss per quarter)
will be e53 650000, showing an excess OF
cost of wheat and flour beyond the average
of three preceding years of Gl5725OOO.
This makes no allowance for diminished
consumption, as the higher price is more
than met by the general high rate of wages,
and these figures apply to wheat and -four
only, and do not include the increase of
price on other descriptions of corn.

SharD Practice,

A bill has passed the Legislature raising
the annual salary of Common Pleas Judges
from $4,000 to $2,500. The State Constitu-
tion provides that the salary of no officer
shall be changed during his term of office.
Many of the Radical Judges are resigning,
and Governor Cox is appointing them to
fill the vacancies occasioned by their own
designations, so that they may secure the
benefits of the increased salary. If a Dem
ocrat should resign his place would be fill
ed by a radical. We have a goodly number
