 Sir John Macdonald IS trying to coax the British Ministry into granting Canada sub- sidy of an hundred millions to build Canadian Pacific railroad The proposition seems a trffle impudent in view of the recent adoption by the Dominion parliament of a protective tariff aimed directly at the British manufac- turing interests.
 The decision of the Pennsylvania Supreme court fixes the loss from the Pittsburgh riot upon Alleghany County, which already owes about one and three quarter millions.

The Tribune thinks that i'witn a thorough discussion ofthe question of biennial sessions, and a full vote upon it's merits it would have been adopted. It is difficult to see upon what his opinion was founded. Six months ago the feeling was strong in favor of the measure as it's almost unanimous approval by the legislature indicated. The vote of two to one against it is entirely the result of the discussion that has occurred since, A few months more of sharp debate would apparent ly have made the people as nearly unanimous against it as was the legislature in its favor.

The Register sets forth the facts plainly

eventually be the outcome If the present
high tariff continues. All the hue and
cry in favor of protection is hollow pre-
tense for keeping up enormous duties on
Pennsylvania products, and instead of
being beneficial to labor is a curse. The
Republican party has always been in
favor of high protection, while the Demo
cratic party has been at all times for a
tariff for revenue only. The business in-
terests of the west and south will sooner CT
