A IN the revised tariff now \u2018before Congress, Nova Scotia coal is placed on this free-list conditional upon the removal of the Canadian duty upon American anthracite.Should Congress follow up this plan of dicker we maÿ reach reciprocity in time.The difficulty is that our N.P.rulers will not respond.THE dairy convention of last week was by no means of equal interest to that of 1883.There was an unpleasant feeling among the audience that the leading speakers were not fully grounded upon the subjects on which they held forth, and that much they recommended was from hearsay.At next convention, it would be well to have, at least, one really competent mao, aod a hundred dollars would be well spent in bringing either Mr Brown of the Guelph college or Professor Arnold.Our farmers are anxious to improve and will attend any gathering where they can be profited.One subject, which might very well have come before the convention, was the present state of the factory system in the District.That the relations between patrons and owners are unsatisfactory is notorious, and a little healthy ventilation, even if it involved some personal feeling, would have done good by restoring confidence on the basis of a better understanding than now prevails.Should the present antagonism between patrons and factory owners, and between rival factory-owners, continue, we can foresee a collapse that will inflict injury on all.When cheese is being made ata loss in many factories, and we still heur of new ones going up where there is no room for them, there can be only one result.Accompanying the report of the convention, we should have liked to have given a few statistics of the standing of the factory interest, but have found it impossible to get complete returns.Creameries did not pay well, as compared with cheese-factories, and their owners shrink from print.In Beauharnois 3 cheese- factories and 1 creamery were kept in operation and met with indifferent success.Mr Brodeur's enterprise, we trust, may yet be rewarded.In Chateaugay 4 cheese-factories and (not counting those on the line) 3 creameries ran, and all did fairly well.Next season there will be at least & new cheese factory on the Tullochgorum road, and another near Howick.In Huntingdon there were 27 cheese-factories in operation and, 80 far as we can ascertain, 8 creameries, and 1 combined factory.The 27 cheese factories paid to their patrons the large sum of one-quarter of e million dollars, constituting, by far, the largest item in the income of the farmers of Hunting- don.How much the creameries paid to their patrons we cannot say.Altho there will be 3 or 4 new factories built, the total will not be materially changed, as 3 may be superseded, owing to the union of Messrs McFarlane & Macpherson.ELGIN COUNCIL.AT a meeting held ou the 3rd instant, all present except Coun Wattie, who was absent on account of ill-health.Daniel M'farlane was re-elected Mayor.The

President, in the chair.The attendance, owing to the weather and the bad state of the roads, was unusually small.After the session had been opened by singing (led by Mr Bachanan) and prayer, Mr Andrew Wilson, in the name of the congregation, welcomed the members of the Convention to Athelstan, whereupon Colonel McEachern responded.The Secretary-Treasurer read the minutes of last Convention, also the financial statement, both of which were approved.The President named Lieut.-Col.McEachern, Messrs Wm, Clyde, James Rennie, John Winter, Andrew Wilson, and the Rev J.B.Muir, as 8 committee to recommend the place for the next Convention.The Rev Mr Wilkinson, who was to have read the first paper, not being present, and the Rev Mr Thuglow also being absent, Mr Dalgliesh read a paper bearing on the use of tobacco.He contended that tobacco should not be used, because it was injurious both-%o body and mind, was a filthy and expensivb habit, and had a tendency to create a thirst for alcobelio drinks, Messrs James Rennie, William Clyde, James Buchanan and others addressed the Convention on the topic, in the main endorsing the views brought forward in the paper.The President closed the discussion in a few well-chosen words, urging toleration in these matters, and advising them not to judge a brother harshly who might indulge in this habit.À short time was devoted to the subject assigned to the Rev Mr Wilkinson.The Rev J.B.-Muir opened the discussion, urging the necessity of parents taking more interest in the Sabbath-Schools, but on no account to allow the School to take the place of religious instruction in the family.He also maintained that parents should see that the School had funds sufficient to procure proper appliances to carry on the work successfully.The hour for adjournment having arrived, the session was closed with singing and prayer.The afternoon session was opened with devotional exercises.The committee named at the forenoon session reported, recommending that the next Coaven- tion be held in the Rev MrMackeracher\u2019s church, Howick, on the first Tuesday in September next.The report was adopted.The subject left over from the forenoon session was then taken up.Messrs James Rennie, Col McEachern, Andrew Wilson, Jobn Winter, Jas.T.Gillies, W.W.Dalgliesh, and others, pok part.After singing, the Rev Mr Muir spoke on the aubject of \u201cThe Bible Class in connection with the 88.\" The discussion was continged by Messrs James Rennie, Andrew Wilson, W.W.Dalgliesh, and James Buchanan.All the speakera felt the necessity of having a good Bible clasc in connection with each 88, so that the scholars, who were farther advanced, might, when they considered they were too large for the ordinary classes, be drafted into the Bible class.A number of the speakers dwelt upon the difficulty of getting suitable teachers for the Bible-class.In many congregations, the minister's duties were such that he was unable to meet the Bible-class, but they were all agreed that a Bible-class was a necessity in every efficient and well-organized school, After singing, the question of \u201cThe duty of teachers in visiting their scholars in their homes\u201d was taken up.Colonel McEschern, Messrs Dalgliesh and Donaldson spoke on the subject.They urged the necessity of teachers looking after their scholars,and considered that, in many instances, their visits would be beneficial to the parents as well as the scholars.The afternoon session was then brought to a close.The evening session was held in the audience room of the church.Altho the evening was unfavorable, there was a very good attendance, The Rev Messrs McBain and Mackeracher, Messrs Thomas Gebbie, jr, Geo.McClenaghan, W.8.Cunningham, and Robert Ness, were named as a committee to make the necersary arrangements for the next Convention to be held at Howick.; The Secretary was instructed to have a num ber of copies of the constitution printed and distributed to the different Schools, and to try as far as possible to have the provisions of the constitution carried out.The Rev J.B.Muir then delivered ah elo-{Jo%P uent and instructive address.The rev.gen- man being the only member of the deputation present, no doubt felt that the success of the meeting, to a certain extent, depended upon him and acquitted himself in an admirable manner.He began by saying this was an of Conventions ; chat this become t ° popular manner of bringin, ore the the questions of public ftarest.He spoke of the great progress that had been made in the arts and sciences, but larly in education, and showed that people now felt the necessity of being well grounded in the rudimenta of whatever they might be studying.He applied this to the religious instruction of the young, and urged parents and SS, Teachers to so train the young that they would grow up to be good Christians and usefal members of society.itm tel e President ing.À vote of thanks to the people of Athel.stan was moved by Col.McEachern, sesonded by John Donaldson.It was carried by applause.A vote of thanks, moved Rev J.B.Muir, seconded by Mr James Rennie, was tendered -to Mr and Miss Buchanan for their services in

boiler, The Captain may blow-up a little himself, but he does not want the boiler to have a hand in the matter.A meeting was to be held in the Town Hall on the evening of the 8th inst.in connection with the Indian lands, but, owing to the storm, no one attended.Considerably more wood is being brought in here this Winter than was expected, Captain Smallman being the principal purchaser for his

to the Chair, and in yielding to the wish of the audience emphatically expressed his sympathy with the Temperance reform and his approval of the meetings.He illustrated the inconsistency of the community with regard to the liquor-traffic by recalling how, & few years ago, & panic got a by the breaking out of smallpox in the village.How prompt the council was in isolating the infec building and appointing a physician to vaccinate all, and how the raby shunned the house on which was sp with the words \u201cSmall-pox.\u201d \u2018Yet the ravages of that loathsome disease were not to be

for intruding upon your columns again, but we would crave permission for a brief review of the matter, and then we wish to retire ier for thet discussion, bepecially since, y, we get only insults and falsshoods; or an entire avoidance of the points in question.In the opening part Mr Seunders\u2019 last letter, he tries to make it appear thet we have falsified ourselves in giving e prices paid by other butter factories, Wo never claimed that they were reported in the Gleaner or any other paper.We would say that, up: to the time of the issue of our last article, we had séen only one butter factory report and that was Stock- claiming to have paid 72c per were given us by the proprietors themselves, They are in the immediate vicinity with the exception of one, and we would cheerfully have iven their names as Mr S.has ted us to lo, but for the fact that we did not feel at liberty to publish the reports of other people's business, nor do we at the present time.If the proprietors of those factories wish to give to the public a report of their business, no doubt they will do s0.We certairily do not feel like taking such a liberty.: He next endeavors to show that bis factory has paid its patrons more than we have paid ours, and, consequently, that we have not done as we agreed by our patrons.This he does, by adding to his returns from sales of butter a fictitious price for his skim-milk, He might add any price he choses, for that matter say 40c, 60c, or any price per hundred.There is no limit to its price in the hands of such a man.We think it was very conclusively proved by a former correspondent of the Gleaner, that the value of skim-milk as a food for stock depends upon the market value of such, and there- ore has no fixed value.It must be clear to the minds of most people, that it is worth far more when pork sells for Sc per 1b, than when it sells for only 6c, and when calves sell for $10 each than when they sell for anly $6-each.It may be\u2018that Mr 8.is so dull of comprehension that he cannot understand this point, tho we very much doubt it.It was also stated by the same correspondent that Mr James Burke, one of the most careful practical farmers in the country, and a patron (on the selling system) of Mr Saunders, found, after a series the most carefully conducted experiments (by weighin his skim-milk, his pork after being fattened, deducting cost of grain, &¢.), that his skim-milk had given him only 7e per hundred.Your correspondent also called attention to the fact that Mr Saunders himself, when proprietor of a cheese factory, placed the difference of value between whey and skim-milk at only 5c per hundred ; which point Mr Saunders avoided replying to altogether, It is curious\u2018to ab-erve how some people's opinions change with their interests.Mr S, entirely ignores the fact that we returned to our patrons sweet skim-milk for at least one-fourth of the time.He also says that some of our patrons have told him they would not draw our whey home for the taking.This may or may not be true, but some of his atrons have told us that they.would as ief have our sweet whey as his somr, and during Summer months \u201coftentimes tainted, skim-milk.As to the real value of our whey, which is as good as that from any we can refer Mr 8, to our patrons, many of whom have as good calves; on whey, grass and hay alone, as those fed on skim-milk, We will also say that when we made our bargain with our patrons, we made a verbal agreement in addition to our written one, as stated in our last article, to pay 10c per hundred more than Mr 8.paid by the patron plan.This 10c per hundred was guaranteed them to amply and more than pay them for the difference ia whey and skim-milk, and our patrons were willin ve paid to accept our terms.Mr S.claims to his patrons 72c per hundred.We have paid ours 83¢c \u2018aad a fraction.Cam an g be clearer than that we have fulfiled our contract ?Now, as to the cooking of rte.We stated it as our opinion that Mr S.counted in the price of milk bought bu 1 price, according to patron lan, and so raised the | price per hundred.To refute this, he us to reports given his patrons, whith weald be no proof at all, ies thoy are ut and might have been expected that Mr S., in to our , would have offered to wd a compe and let us appoint another, and they two a third, to audit the books and let the reports be published.It is a significant fact, that he has avoided this with care, and we think the publie must regard it in the same light that we do, namely, that it is a tacit admission that we ware correct and that he is afraid of results.This isatill our opinion, sud we again challenge 8.to inest us, in having our books sudited together with bis and the reports published, Let milk-bookn, accounts of sales, tvith vouchers, be placed in the hands of competent men, and we will abide the resulta, Until he is ready to do this, we think it would be far better for tright with the him to

can be offered by the towns lying wast of Fort Covington.So far as I know we have no other report except that we are here as an interested committee and expect to hear from the other towns which are represented.\u201d Mr Barlow, for Bombay, said he had nothing very definite to report.The town would probably subscribe from $5,000 to $7,000.A delegate from Massena said the time for canvassing had been short, but Jthe committee was prepared to offer the right of way thru the town.Further than that was not prepared to say at present.Mr Bradford, for the town of Louisville, was prepared to offer the right of way \u2014 something over ten miles.Mr Reddington represented Waddington.He said : \u201cI don\u2019t know as I am any better prepared than any of the other towns to make a very full report of what we are able to do.We have labored under the conviction (and I per- sume the same idea prevails in ether towns) that we have come here expecting to hear a certain proposition from other parties respecting the inwardness of the thing.[Applause.] e came here expecting that there would be some inducements held out on the part of thowe who have capital at command, to see what they were ready to do as a stimulus to us for action.It was stated by the chairman of this meeting that this railroad from Fort Covington to Ogdensburg would need one and a half millions of money.Look at it a moment.Where is the million and a half of money coming from ?From five towns which are particularly interested in this road frum Massena to Ogdensburg?An estimate of the amount of money that we will have to raise in these five towns, throwing out Ogdensburg, will be $300,000 a town.Now we have not come here to talk in the dark.We want some light on this subject.We have worked already to a very considerable cxtent.Woe plowed our say down to Massena twice and met a large concourse of people there on those occasions.The same kind of talk was had there that we are having here\u2014what are we

the ittees from tha.respective towns would hats a meeting at future meeting, we expected that the towns would come prepared to say precisely what they would do.The meeting was called sooner than we expected, but, nevertheless, the moment the tele was received that this meeting was to held, we set about to see what we could afford to do in Waddington.Bat what we can do, and what you propose to do, is simply a drop in the bucket towards its accomplishment.Mr Reddington spoke of the deep interest Waddington felt in the plan, but di the indefiniteness of Judge Foster.If thers are capitalists behind the Canada road, he said, they should step furward and say what they could.do, and warm us into life, [Applause.] We want to be assured \u2018rom some source whether jthere is capital behind this thing which is going to push it thru after we have done our utmost.Weare intensely interested in this thing aud have worked day and night to see what we could do.We have succeeded in raising $6,000, and it will stretch us to the utmost limit to aay that we can finally give you $10,000, When Norfolk was called upon, H.D.Carpenter said the town came prepared to iusure the rvad the right of

reduced by $1,000,000 if the road went to Norwood.The delegates from Norwood said they were nol prepared to state that that town would do anything unless the road went there, udge Foster was called upon, and stepping upon the stage, spoke for over 30 minutes.The judge is a fluent talker and said some things which were of interest and some which were not.He began by amuring bis hearers that no

many of the residents of the different towns.He also spoke of the willingness of Ogdenshurg to assist in the extension, and emphatically denied that the road was built for other purposes than simply
