The Reason.

The case against +. Gastring, the
butcher, for abusing his wife and dis
turbing the peace, was continued until
tomorrow in the Recorders court. Gas
tring said the trouble arose because he
had broken his sausage machine last
Saturday, the sausage became sour and
he had few loud words with his folks.

The Town Of Brittcn

Is located on a commanding eminence or ridge, separating
two valleys. To the North and West as TAR as the eye can
reach extends Broad Valley. and to the South and West
Pheasant Valley; while to the East eight miles distant, are
seen the beautiful hillsi and lakes of the Reservation. Brit
ton is 100 miles south Of Tower City on the Dakota & Great
Southern, which road will DC in full operation during the
year 1884, and will run trains 10 Briton by the LIST of July.
The town is named in honor of Col. Isaac Britton, the we'll
known railroad builder of the South and East, at present
General Manager Of the above-named road. The proprie-
tors of the sown site are some of Dakotais most active, ener-
getic, experienced capitalists and business men, who never
do anything by halves. They have a written contract with
the 7. & q. S. Ry, to make this a station and stopping place
for all trains. 1t is intended to make this the end Of one d.
vision of one hundred miles in length. unnecessary repair,
machine and other shops will be located here, requiring the
employment Of skilled workmen, assuring the Importance
of this city as a business center. Among the improvements
already decided upon are, a three story hotel, two large gen.
al stores, Hardware, Machinery, Three Elevators, Bank
Lumber Yards, and a Newspaper Office already on the

are altogether illiterate, and only 20 can
both read and write, the average of %illitera-
cy being of course swelled by the nearly
complete ignorance of the women, of whom
only 16 in 10000 can read and write. Ma
tiveS Who cannot read are not necessarily as
ignorant as Europeans in the same posi-
ton, but the figures strongly support the
arguments of those who think that the
whole strength ofthe Education Department
should, for a generation at least, be given
to primary vernacular instruction. The re-
turn, too, throws great light upon the sup
posed influence Of the Native Press, which
cannot greatly affect a population unable
to read. 1t would not take much money
to start a school for reading and writing
only in every village, nor do we believe ma
tiveS would object to a compulsory law of
attendance for boys.
Those who were at all startled by
Mr.. Parnell's declaration that Mr..
Tuke's Irish emigrants were, for the
most part, languishing in dreary at.
ties, in the great American cities,
should read Mr.. Tuke's interesting
letter to Mondays Times with its
ample store Of evidence that success
had attended the steps Of all those of
whom news had been received. he
Bishop OF ST Paul, Minnesota, writes
in the most gratifying terms of the
emigrants sent thilher; Mr.. Howard
liodgkin and Captain Rutledge-
Fair, who have just returned from a
visit Of inspection in Canada, were
perfectly satisfied with the prospects
Of the Canadian emigrants, which
they had carefully Investigated;
while of the prosperity of the emf
grants to the United States,-two
thirds Of the whole,-the many let
terS and remittances receive from
them in ireland are The best eviden.
ces. Mr.. luke himself, the sober
est of phllanthrcpiSts, is perfectly
satisfied non only that The experiment
has succeeded admirably, but TINT
the people in the West Of ireland are
well aware of ITS success, and are
eager for the chance Of following
where SO many of them friends have
already entered on the path to pros
perity. Mr.. ParneII probably only
desires to hear of the cases, where
from some cause OF another, the tx
pertinent has not been fruitful of good.
And amongst $500 emrgrants, some
such must there be.

pletely self-supporting production, all
the previous English manufacturers
of porcelain having been more or less
dependent on Crown grants-in-aid.
In reference to politics, Mr.. Gladstone
intimated that the time was close at
hand when the Cabinet would solicit
her Majesty's permission to lay their
proposals as to the franchise before
Parliament. The previous grants of
an extended franchise, he said, had
been made in the spirit OF men who
had to take physic, and who took as
little Of it as they could help. Now,
they could extend the franchise in
the spirit Of men who knew that they
were taking food, and not physic,-
food that would bring health and
strength to the constituencies.
An extraordinary official project
was brought forward on Thursday
in the French Chamber. The French
do not settle in Algeria fast enough,
and the Government accordingly de-
sires to settle there some 25,O00 vine
growers, who have been ruined by
phylIoxera. To effect this purpose,
it asks for 5O,000,O0Of,, and proposes
to take away a quantity of land from
Arab proprietOrs, and give it to French
settlers, either without compensation
or with a very low one. NJ. Terman,
the Governor of Algeria, specially
stated in the debate that no Arab
would be "entirely appropriated" and
that the value of the land that remain
ed to each proprietor would be so en-
HANGED that he would gain, not lose by
the scheme. M. Picard, too, who re-
sisted the Bill, based his argument on
the necessity of respecting Arab pro-
perty, which he clearly believed was
being taken away. If it is remember
ed that the Algerians own and value
their estates just as Englishmen do,
that they detest the lei neighbour
hood of the colonists; and that their
agriculture is quite as good as that OF
Frenchmen on a new soil, the nature
of this proposal will be understood.
And then the French are shocked
because their Arab subjects break
into rebellion, whenever they see "a

The Berlin Correspondent OF the
Times states that Herr Won St0Sch,
the late Minister OF Marine, was Suf-
fered to resign because his new iron
clads, upon which part of the French
Indemnity was spent, were found
unfit for service. The new Minister,
General von Caprivi, has inquired
into the matter, and it is found that a
new double-screw gunboat built at
Elbing could not move beyond KEEL,
that the ironclad corvette Hansa'
is about twice as slow as a trading
steamer, and that five ir0ncIad cor
vettes of a new type, intended tor the
Baltic service, and thirteen ironclad
gunboats Of ] 100 tons each, are al
most entirely worthless. The German
Navy, moreover, possesses no cor
vette which makes more than four
teen knots an hour, and no torpedo
boat making more han sixteen,
though other nations possess boats
making twenty. These statements
have all been made in the Franktdr.
ter 2eitung, and are, it is affirmed,
substantially accurate, the root of the
mischief being the determination of
the Department to borrow and buy
nothing from other countries, and to
make its dockyards selfcontained.
The oddly of the matter is that Ger
mans are excellent sailors, and their
commercial marine ranks next after
that Of England. The merchants, it

The final Report on the Census of Ben
gal, taken in 1881, gives a remarkable pic
ture of the only province in India where
the British Government might possibly be
elected by Il pt66iscite. The Lieutenant
GOvernorship is nearly as large as France,
or 1913, 900 square miles and contains dou-
ble her population, or SO, 500, 900 souls. The
average density of population is 37141 to
the square mile, and the rate of increase is
within a fraction of IL per 1000 per an
mum Of the total, Al, 5000, 900 are Hindoes,
1880, 900 Mahommedans, 5000 Chris
tians, and little above that number Budd-
hist, while most of the remainder profess
various savage creeds. Polygamy, though
allowed by law to all but Christians, is in
practice extremely rare, the number of per-
sons with more than one wife being only
per 1000. Out of every 1000 persons, 996
