sir Charles Diikes' Investigation
Scheme,

The demonstration of Sir Charles
Dixie in the British House OF Commons,
on Tuesday night, on his presenting a
resolution to investigate the expenses of
the Crown was lively one. Objection
was made to its being brought forward
on the ground that the members were
bound by oaths of allegiance to the Queen,
aud that Sir Charles being an avowed
republican could not be heard in such
an assemblage. The Speaker, however,
0couldSsee no Inconsistency in allowing
its reception, and that it was no part of
his duty to interfere, and the motion
was read amid great excitement The
proposed inquiry embraces, beside the
ciGil list, the duties o6sinecures attached
70 the Crown and the income and ex-
penditurc Of the Queen and Prince of
Wales, the cost Of court ceremonies,
royal jouneyings and even to the
amounts expended by Victoria in max
tag presents to her friends.
Mr.. Dixie supported the motion in an
earnest speech acknowledging that it was
an unprecedented one, but the time had
comoIor the establishment of a prece-
dent He denounced sinecures and use
less offices and expenses surrounding
Her Majesty and the Royal Family, and
that the civic list showed an increase of
these expenses, and that the taxpayers
believed that "A large portion of the
money was wasted. Mr.. Gladstone
denied the increase of the civil list and
replied on some other points denomcing
bikes speech as mischieyous, and urg-
ed the House on every ground to reject
the motion. Mr.. Herbert attempted a
reply in which he uttered the sentiment
that he preferred a republic to a mon
archy, hut 10 was drowned by the con-
fusion, during which many COnserva-
tivcs and I.ibcralists left the House.
Finally upon Il division PA members re-
turned to express their aversion to the
motion by their vote, while only two
votes were recorded in its favor
This movement Of Sir Charles Dixie
was bold one, to be made in the British
Parliament, especially against the cur
rent expenses Of the reigning sovereign.
1t indicates that the spirit of inyestiga-
ton and reform prevalent i'll our own
country IS spreading abroad, and the
subject is being agitated among the
masses Of the people, and have no doubt
the mover was a representative Of the

Typhoid Fever.

In Halls Joug7aozof Health for March
is an article which says that typhoid te-
yer, ship fever, Jail fever and camp fever,
are one and the same disease, Tor the
cause of them is one and the same
breathing into the lungs, swallowing IN
to the stomach, human excrement; that
is. what is thrown from the body or out
of the body; from the body includes
Precipitation, odors, fumes, etc. The
things which are breathed into the lungs
and swallowed into the stomach find
their way into the blood, poison it, make
it thicken, arrest its flow, cause it to
clog ND in the small blood vessels, de-
range the circulation and finally arrest
the working of the whole machinery of
the body and the man is dead. From
the statements made it appears that,
1st. If case or two Of typhoid fever
occurs in any family, the cause should
at once be sought for in the air breathed,
or in the water used for drinking and
cooking.
I'd. 1t is the safest to use water which

tain which is higher, in a more elevated
locality, than any human habitation, at
least WITHIN a mile or two; and safer
still, if above all barn yards, chicken
roosts, pig pens and privies.
3D. Human eXcrement should be car
ried away from the dwellings without
one moments unnecessary delay.
4th. In cities, water closets should be
kept scrupulously clean, and should be
so constructed and located that win
dow should open from them Immediate
" out of doors.
9Th. No gentleman's country seat
should have more than one water closet
in the building, and that to be used on
Iy in case of severe sickness. and after
bed time.
9th. Privies in the country should be
at least fifty yards from the dwelling,
and far below the spring or water sup
ply.
18th. Every drain of every house
which receives what is deposited in wa
ter closets and kitchen sinks, should be
self-ventilating outside of the walls OF
the house for every second OF the "A

THE LAKE SUPERIOR GOLD DIsCov-
ERIEs.-Late advices from the Islet mine
represent that much excitement had
been occasioned by the recent discover
les of gold. The place at which gold
has been found is called Jacktish lake,
and is about 10 miles north of Thunder
Bay, not far from the road constructed
by the Canadian government in 1870,
when sending troops to Manitoba. The
vein is said to be Of almost pure native
gold, though silver is found mixed with
It in places. Some specimens which
have been picked up would, it is claimed,
yield gold at the rate of $50, 1000 per ton.
a recent letter from Lake Superior re-
ceived by a business man in Detroit re-
presents that the greatest excitement
was prevailing on account of the re-
ports from the North Shore. All the
surveyors that could be found had been
engaged to proceed to the vicinity Of
Jacktish lake, and prospecting for gold
and silver was likely to become the
chief occupation of the inhabitants.

Late Dairy Markets.
CHEESE.

S1EEsE
The highest quotation for cheese was
1913 cents. The quotations for the cor
responding week last year was 16a cents,
an advance this year of three cents.
1t will be seen that prices have advanced
from last week another ! cent for prime
cheese. Some sales are said to have
been made at 90 cents, but probably not
sufficient to warrant quotation at that
price. Low grades are down to 10 and
II cents, which shows that only strictly
fine cheese are bringing high figures.
These high prices cannot be long sus-
tanned. We would advise our dairymen
to sell their lots on hand before prices
begin to drop, as they must soon, for the
reason that they are too high for export
trade, and there is undoubtedly more
stock than will be required for home
consumption. There is every prospect,
as if the farmers might begin to sell
this season on high market, which will
continue to-day, as it did last year, and
even close at lower figures, should the
season be favorable to the production of
cheese.
The receipts of cheese for the week
ending Saturday last, We're 1,712 boxes,
and the shipments were 948 boxes. For
the corresponding week last year the re-
ceipts were 5.827 boxes and exports
were 1864
BUTTER.
Nice new tubs of butter are selling in
New York at 80 and IS cents. and fine
diaries have been disposed of at 30 and
SO cents. Lower grades are quoted all
the way down to grease prices. 1t is
our impression that the market will be
cleared Of old butter before the spring
make. There is in fact little doing in
butter anywhere, but prime article, which
is scarce, will probably bring 30 cents in
most markets.
ST. ALBANs MARKET
On Tuesday the market was dnll.
Fall butter, 30 to SO cents; winter
diaries, 20 to 26 cents; new butter, % to
30 cents. Another advance in cheese
from ~ to 10 cents.
