Departure of Troops from Toronto.

TORONTO March 30.-Never in the history Of
Toronto has there been such intense excitement
shown as this morning. Orders had been given
for the troops to parade at 10 o'clock in heavy
marching order, but long before that hour people
began to assemble around the drill-shed, and
very shortly the structure was densey packed,
the crowd extending from the shed, along West
Market street, to King. Others took up posi-
tons on the sidewalks on King street. and by IL
o'clock pedestrianisn was impossible. Every
upper window along King street was filed with
ladies' In the drill-shed the men were put
through the several movements and addressed
by their colonies. At 11:30 the doors of the
drill shed were thrown open, and the Grenaders
contingent marched out, preceded by their
band, playing THE Girl Left Behind Me-" The
Queens Own followed, headed by bugle band.
Immediately on their appearance ringing cheers
went UP from the crowd along the route, and
the ladies waved their handkerchiefs. Along
King street the widest excitement prevailed,
the cheers being continuous AT the Union
Station about 10, 600 people were assembled, AS
the train slowly steamed out of the station the
people grew wild with excitement. Cheer upon
cheer was given, and responded to by the troops
The contingent comprises 500 men from the
Queens Own and the Crenadlers, and eighty
from the Infantry School classes
1t is reported that the deputy adjutant general
has received orders to call out the remainder of
the Queens Own and the Grenaders The re-
port lacks confirmation, but it is generally be-
lieved such an order will come shortly A
movement is on foot here to get twenty young
men, who have means and courage, and are will
ing to undergo hardships, to band together for
guerilla warfare, and to bring in Riel dead or
alive. They will go through the United States
as civilians, and will procure an outfit costing
about $500, in Winnepeg. They will style them
selves the Toronto Rangers.

Can Silver Coinage Be Stopped?

washington special.
Another very curious point has been raised by
Mr.. Jordan the imported bank expert who in
stends to upset the Treasury style of bookkeep
ing. but it may be doubted whether the sugges-
ton IS to be seriously insisted upon. 1t is that
the law appropriating sufficient sum to pur-
chase silver bullion to coin 2,oOO 600 of standard
silver dollars monthly technically was of effect
for only one year; that the language of the law
Is such that it does not operate as a continuing
appropriation; and that consequently the Secre-
tary of the Treasury may decline to make
further purchase of bullion and discontinue the
coinage of the standard silver dollar. The point
upon which this claim is based is wholly tech
meal The appropriation clause in the original
silver-dollar law provided that the money neces-
sary to execute its provisions to be taken
from any money in the Treasury not otherwise
appropriated. 1t is maintaine ed that the appro-
priation, if it to continue indefinitely should
have stated that the amount appropriated was to
be appropriated annually. The omission of the
word annually it is argued. takes this appro-
priation out of the category of what are called
permanent appropriations, and limits the appro-
priatiOE to one wear.

A Cure for the Sparrow Pest.

Sparrows were introduced from Eng
for the purpose of destroying the YER
min, but it has been determined that
the remedy is worse than the pest, and
resolution is made to get rid of the
birds, but how to do so has not been
fully determined. Perhaps it will be
n good plan to introduce the mouse
eating spider, for it is exceedingly fond
of small birds, and is as artful as fox
in catching them. This formidable in
sect is found in Bahia, maritime PROV
ince of Brazil. Its body, which is COW
cred with hair, is three inches in length
and is about as big rs u cheese-plate.
1t feeds on mice. grasshoppers, and
sn all birds, which it catches by spring.

in the hollow of tree or beneath a
large leaf. In captivity it is fed chief
ly on a large kind of cockroach, but
would not object to our smaller cock
reaches, and in Kidding the land of
them would accomplish another good
work. 1t is probable that few upon
a farm would very soon rid the premi-
SEES of meadow-moles, mice, and if not
too abundant, stop the raids of grass
hoppers. here is a large wasp that
may be introduced to kill off the spid-

The SUMS Supply.

From an Illustrated article on "1'he
Suns Energy by S. p. Langley, in the
December century, we quote the fol-
lowing: ''How is this heat maintained
Not by the miracle Of perpetual self
sustained flame, we may be sure. But,
then, by what fuel is such Il fire fedp
There can be no question of simple
burning, like thar OF coal in the CRATE,
for there is no source of supply ade-
quate to the demand. The State of
Pennsylvania. for instance, is under
laid by one of the richest coal-iields of
the world, capable of supplying the
consumption of the whole country at
its present rate for more than thOus-
and years to come Ii the source of

withdrawn, and we were enabled to
carry this coal there and shoot il into
the solar furnace fast enough to keep
up the known heat-supply, 50 that the
solar radiation would 60 on at just its
actual rate, the time which this coal
would last is easily calculable. 1t
would not last days or hours, but the
whole of these coal-beds would demon
strably be used up in rather less than
one one-thousaudth Of a second We
find by a similar calculation that if the
sun were itself one solid block of coal,
it won have burned out to the last
cinder in less time than man has GER
tainly been on the earth. But during
historic times there has as surely been
no noticeable diminution of the SUMS
heat, for the olive and the vine grow
just as they did three thousand years
ago, and the hypothesis of an actual
burning becomes untenablc. 1t has
been supposed by some that meteors
striking solar surface might generate
heat by their impact, just rs a cannon
ball fired against an armor-plate causes
a flash of light, and heat so sudden
and intense as to partly melt the ball
at the instant of conclusion. This Is
probably a real source of hcat-supply
as far as it goes, but it cannot 20 very
far; and indeed, if orr whole world
should fall upon the solar surface like
an immense proiectile, gathering speed
as it fell, and finally striking Gas it
would with the force due TO rate of
over three hundred miles second, the
heat developed would supply the sun
for but little more than sixty years.

A temperance lecturer in London has
piyen recently some curious statistics
in regard to the amount expended in
intoxicating liquor. He estimated the
annual average thus spent in the last
ten wears at $720,000,000. This gives
an expenditure Of 500, 100000 every
month. OF S15, 600, 600 every week, and
of S25 every second. night and day.
There are 8, 508, 480 letters IN the Bible,
and if S2o5 were placed on every letter
it would represent the annual expen-
diture. The grain consumed by the
brewers and distillers is sufficient to
provide four loayes Of bread per week
10 every family in the United Kingdom.
These certainly arc sta1tiing facts.
