Fmipratiuc French-Canadjaps.

ToRoNTo, Ont, April 20 The French
Canadian papers agree that The vo'umt
of emigration from Quebec 10 the United
States this year promises TO exceed that
Of any previous year in the history OF
the province. One paper says that i
will reach 100, 600; another that ii may
exceed 50, 600. Mr.. MERCER, premier o
Quebec, expresses the belief that by 1891
there will be not lees than 900 900
French Canadians in the United States
He places the French. Canadian popula-
ton of Quebec in 1891 at 1,240 coo AND
the French Canadian population OF the
other Canadian provinces at 2SS, 600, 80
that for every fifteen French Canadians
in Canada there will be ten IN the United
States. The Mail in commenting on the
extraordinary emigration from the prev
ince of Quebec to the United states lays
the blame on the Roman Catholic church
and holds the clerical government Of
Quebec responsible in a great degree for
the enormous movement Of population to
the protection Of another flag. 1t says:
Thu church has tried to induce the fugitives
to return by Offering them free farms, with
reads and clearings ready made, In the new
districts north of the st. Lawrence, while the
dominion government holds out even bet
ter inducements In the shape OF free land in
the northwest. But the repatriation scheme
has failed, ard the rush to New England lie
increasing. There, at any rate, the habitant
enjoys the luxury OF standing erect, OF put.
ting what he earns In his own pocket, OF
learning something besides the catechism, OF
reading what he pleases and saying what he
thinks without fear Of mourning eternal dam
natien. Until we can offer him an equal
measure OF freedom we have no right 20 ask
him to remain In the land Of his birth. More
over, until the despotism from which he l.
escaping AZ fast as he can Is abolished 1t Is
useless for US to talk Of making this e great
or progressive country.
