A REMEDY.

A combination which promises a

suggested by the following plan pro
posed in the Parliament of Victoria,
Australia, whence many of the great
modern political reforms for the last
forty years have had their origin
and first practical trial.
Mr.. M'Lean's Village Settlements
Bill has been described as "thc bill
that is to make the colony" 1t has
certainly aroused much interest both
in Parliament and out OF ii. 1t
seems to be the general opinion that
the one way for Victoria to retrieve
her position is to settle her people
upon the land. Mr.. M'Lcan's bill
may not be perfect, but it is "A move
in the right direction, He proposes
that these settlements should be
placed whcre labor is most wanted,
and that land should be selected
wisely for the purpose, in order that
the settlers might be able to live ON
small areas. The Government pro
poses to pick suitable land, and, if it
is already occupied, to invite the
owners to sell fenced ailotmcnts OF
from two to twenty acres, with two

intermittent harping on the financial
stringency in the Legislature, even,
has probably cost the country more
than a good pile of shavings off
salaries. The following is an extract
