lures at work, each with its two Cham
bers. The passion for federalism has
been a good deal damped 10 Canada by
recent events, and we hear even of a plan
for uniting the separate maritime provinces
of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and
Prince Edwards Island under a single
Government. The new province would,
of course, include Newfoundland, which
cannot always hold sulkily aloof from the
neighbouring Colonies and the name

War seems likely to kill Slavery in
Cuba, as it did in the Southern States
of the Union. The Volunteers, who have
recently ruled the island, are dying fast;
and General Concha, besides raising $4,000
men in Spain, for whom he offers bounty
money of ElO q head, has at last been
compelled to organise Negro regiments.
He offers freedom to every man who en-
lists, and hopes by this means to raise
some 10000 men. He has already re-
viewed Que regiment, said to be in good
condition, and seems to have got his inan-
ces into much better order, the wealthy
classes consenting to what we should call
an income-tax of two shillings in the
pound. Their idea seems to be to sacri-
fee their negroes to save their bonds, but
we are not without some suspicion of an
arriere pens6e. The island once reduced to
subsection, fresh negroes could be import
ed, and all not emancipated by service
reduced afresh to slavery. Perhaps, how
ever, the planters see that the game Of
slavery is up, and that they had better
restore order, before the insurgents have

Adding together the exports OF domestic
and foreign specie and bullion and subtract
ing the imports, we find that the United States
have contributed in the last six years no less
than $31S 700 900 to the stock of precious metals
in foreign lands. Yet we are told that
it is out of the question for the United
States to have a paper currency con-
vertible into the precious metals on demand !!
1t lies within the power OF the United States
Treasury at any moment to stop this outflow
of specie, and turn the current the other way.
By merely stopping the regular weekly
purchases of greenbacks and allowing the
surplus revenue from customs to accumulate in
the Treasury, gold would be drawn from the
Bank of England to New York within ninety
days. If Congress will authorize Mr.. BristOw
to redeem and destroy, between this and Feb
ruary, 1876, eighty-twO millions of greenbacks
or four millions month tor the next twenty
months, and at the end of that time to with
draw the fractional currency. our word for it
the expectation of specie will be checked and
silver and gold will circulate in the United
States as freely as they did before the war.
If the reader will turn back to the first table
he will SEQ that the imports, which for the
four years 1852 rapidly increased, received
a check in 1928, and in 1884 fell S75,OO0,OOO
below those of the previous year. after allow
ing for the increased amount of specie and
making the comparison with merchandise
alone. The great decrease in the last year is
to be attributed to the panic, but the
retardatiOn in 1928 was owing to the
increased production here of man
ufactured goods, resulting in lower prices
and the partial exclusion of foreign articles
from our markets. After the panic this ex-
clusion became still more complete. 1t would
be rash. however, to suppose that it will be
permanent. The following table, giving the
values for the last three years of the five
leading classes of manufactured goods i'm
ported into the United States, will show how
powerful has been the operation of the inhu-
oncas wa have mentioned:

Elder Peck have been far from insignificant.
Ipconsiderate people who think that the1days
of martyrdom are over and that missionaries
have a perfectly mild time of it because they

their error by reading of the undergOings of

mination Of pursuing the remainder OF his
tourney on foot. This he did; but the next day
as he was peacefully pedestrianizing, he was
oyertaken by the sheriff of the county, who
wanted him as a witness in the robbery case.
The only method of conveyance back to the

THE VERDICT AT FALL RIVER.

Much wisdom was scarcely to be expected
from the COrOner's inquest in regard to the
disaster at the Granite Mill. The .erdict Is
ON the whole an intelligent one, pointing out
most of the leading causes OF the calamity,
and making some good suggestions for the
future. PROFESSIONALLY the jury is right in
regarding as the main cause defective archi-
lecture which, furnishing only stairway
through tower as means OF exit
really provided none when that was
filled with smoke and fire. But the
plan, bad as it was. need not have proved so
fatal if the materials employed had been
selected with view to the danger. This
tower should have inclOsed nothing that was
not fireproof In fact, it was lined with wood
and had wooden staircase, which added fuel
TO the flames. As we have said in previous
articles, the means OF escape Tor employees in
case of an alarm of fire, ought to be at least
AZ efficient az those provided by compulsory
law for public audiences.
The verdict scarcely alludes to the sO-caled
fre-escapes. To our notion these were unworthy
of the name. Few persons would have been
willing at any time to take the risk of de-
scent by them. In the story where the great
est loss oil lie WIS OCcdslOHcu tHc ulc-tSCdptb
mere outside ladders-ran up roof having
an angle of about As degrees, and passed be-
tween the skylights; to reach them from this
story it was necessary to climb out of the sky
lights some little distance along the roof.
After leaving the roof they were perpendicu-
lar. There was additional danger to anybody
using this means Of descent from the flames
issuing from the windows beside which the
fire escapes were attached. No woman or
child not trained as an acrobat could have got
down by this means safely, even when there
was none of the excitement and danger OF
the fire. Some doubt exists as to whether
there were inside ladders by which to reach
the skylights, and it is probable that these
ladders were not always kept ready for use.
In short. the fre-escapes were neither acces-
sible nor practicable.
A suggestion made by the jury, that means
should be devised in manufactures for giving
alarm of fire simultaneously in all the rooms,
10 worthy Of attention. The insfjcicncy Of
