Mr. John A. Barron, formerly a resi- dent. of I’enelon Falls, but now a niein. his name on the list of Canadian au- thors by the publication of a work on “ Bills of Sale and Chattcl Mortgages," which we notice is offered for sale (price .‘ 84, bound in half-calf) by Carswell & &o., law book publishers, Toronto. We have not seen )Ir. Barron’s work, and consequently cannot express an opinion as to its merits, but we are pleased to observe that the Globe gives it the fol- lowing favourable notice: “ This volume will prove a very val- uable acquisition to the library ofCana- dian law books. It was the fashion for some years to decry chattel mortgages as a security, but the tendency of late has been to uphold them. and most ot'thc former prejudice against them seems to have disappeared. The repeal of the Insolvent Act has had the effect; of en- hancing the value of chattel mortgages, as is evidenced by the enormous number of those instruments now given to whole- , sale merchants. brewers, manufactures. goods. The law relating to this species of security is now pretty well settled by judicial decisions, and the appearance of Mr. Barron’s work at the. present time I, may be regarded as very opportune. The author has divided the book into three parts. The first, or introductory part,'traccs the history and distinctive features of mortgages in general. It treats of the parties to chattel mortgages and bills ofsale; chattels within the stat- utes relating thereto ; the consideration ; the right. of priority as between mort- gagccs, bargainees, and execution cred; itors; the effects of the insolvency laws ; and the rights and liabilities of creditors, subsequent purchasers,mortgagees,nmrt- gagors. and securities. The second part embodies a most. complete annotation of the English and American decisions applicable to tire Statutes of Ontario re- lating to the subject. of the work, and arranges them in a digested form af'tcr the manner of" liarrisou ’s (lonmmn Law Procccdure Act.

NEW GRAIN Sroanuovsn.-â€"â€".\Ir. Wm. Jordan, of Fenelon, has recently built a roomy storehouse on Lindsay street in this village, near the track of the Vic- toria Railway, and the company have promised to extend their switch so that cars can be backed up to the storehouse door. The building is elevated five feet above the ground on numerous stout posts. and all the foundation tini- bcrs are of cedar. The dimensions are 56 x 30 feet, and ten feet high from sills to plates. The floor and inside walls are two thicknesses of lumber, and the outside is of planed stuff, so- curcly buttoned, and the painters are now at work on it. The binus are twelve in number, ten feet square, and can be raised to the height of' the walls if necessary. It cost about $600. smac- thing more than was expected ; but buildings of all kinds have a knack of exceeding the estimate, as ever ' person who has put one up knows to iis cost. 311‘. Jordan intends to rent some of' the binns, and retain the others, speculat- in!“r in grain to the extent ofa few hunâ€" dred dollars himself. We hope his cuâ€" tcrprise may have a fitting reward. Examination Candidates infil’ublic Schools. __ (To the Editor of The Globe.) SIR.â€"â€"I wish to refer briefly to an evil which is doing great injury to our Public Schools. Many of our teachers devote much of their attention and en- ergy to the priming of a few pupils. The favoured few are intending candi- dates for Iliin School promotion or teachers' certificates. It may be said that if the teacher neglect his other pu- pils for the sake of those few he will soon bGSf'ound out. become unpopular, and be. discharged. But, experience shows no such fate is. in store for him. The teacher who has the most success- ful candidates gets the most praise; the local paper lauds him; the public hears of him, and he gains notoriety. The teacher who teaches all equally well, and does his work silently, thoroughly, and conscientiously, is not heard of, and is outstripped by the other. Trustees like their schools to figure in print, and learn with pride that their school has turned out the most teachers. They often do not judge of the school by the thoroughness of instruction, the disci- pline maintained, and the general imâ€" provement fvisible. Such a mode of judging would involve the labour of careful and repeated visiting. They have a much easier method. The list of successful candidates at examinations is taken as the unfailing criterion for all estimate of work done by their teacher. And so the teacher goes on priming canâ€" didates, and is sure of" his reward if sue- cessful. A farmer's son attends school during winter; the teacher has discov- ered that he has an aptitude for study; he is fl'ittcrcd into becoming one of the favoured few. Thus perhaps the teach- ing profession. already over-sinnkcil. gets another poor teacher. and the form- ing community loses a good farmer. An- other. who would make an excellent me- chanic, and has an opening that would lead to competency and comfort, is inâ€" duced to become one of the clue, and becomes at some future time. a starving cl~rk or pcttif'oggiu: lawyer. Thus the class is recruited and the drilling begins. Of course the other classes are some- times heard, but. their teaching often becomes a more matter of hearing. The real concentration is on the examination Cl‘lSS. No wonder; on this class depends the reputation of bith the school and the teacher. The picture I have given is not too strongly drawn. The evil is obvious. The larzc majority nl'pupils in our l’ub- lic Schools finish their education in them schools. From the Public School they return to the workshop and tho farm. If the teacher neglect them for the sake of those who purpose to obtain a higher education, he does them a life- long injury. and the community is irre- parably wronzcd. They surely have the best claim on his time and attention. We have no lack of schools whose legit- imate aim is to prepare for the prof}:- sions. Let candidates for certificates attend these schools. Trustees who on- courage pct. examination classes are blind to the interests of their schools; the teacher who has them is a fraud and an empiric, and should be discoun- Yours trulv. A Tm‘cuizn.

PRINCESS LOUISE AND PRINCE LEOPOLD ox BOARD THE “ rouxnsixx.” Qttiznizc, July 3l.-â€"â€"IIcr Royal High- ness the Princess Louise embarked on board the Allan steamer Polymsion at nine o'clock this morning for England.

Prince Leopold arrived up from Cape St. Ignace by a special Inter-colonial train at 7:30 last night, and proceeded at. once, per Arctic to the Polynesian, which lay at the Allan wharf on the Quebec side, where he remained all night. His Royal Highness looks bet- ter than might have been expected un- der the circumstances. though the inju- ry he received lately has of course had a very weakening effect on him. o-.\ .__._. . Troublesome Trousers. A great fuss has bi-cn made out of a pair of trousers, which formed part of'a suitin a lawsuit. The Circuit of the United States had to decide whether the insertion of a metal eyelet used to each edge of the pocket opening, with the object of preventing the seams from ripping, was patcutahlc. This simple question involved the examination of 450 witnesses; and the printing of'3,700 pages of testimony. In addition to this the brief of the plaintiff's counsel was 323 printed pages long. while his learned friend on the opposite side Contented him- self with 1:2 pages. And the result- of all this examination, crossâ€"examiuatiou, printing, talking, vcbutting and appealâ€" ing is that Judge Blatchford has do cidcd that an eyelet used for the purpose mentioned is p:lt(‘lll.ttl)ltl,:tlitl that its ap- plication in a pair of trousers is a nov- clty. .9. Religion and Politics. Canon Farrar recently preached a ser- mony in Westminster Abbey on “ lle~ ligon and l’oliticsin which he said: “ if" ever through the fault or fecblcncss of us, the clergy, Englishmen begin to re- gard religion as a sort of conventional theor ', as a set: of abstract dogmas. as a mixture ofparty watchwords and dccuut observance; if ever we drive men to the disastrous conclusion that: religious or- hortations have little concern with po- litical and social life; that. they may do for Sunday, but are unworkable on or- dinary days; that they may concern the clergy and their adherents, but have ' lsttlc to say to the city or to the nation ; whenever, in fact, the religious and the secular are regarded as two distinct and separate spheres, and the truths of re- ligiou as a set of phrases current among the elect, but meaningless to the vast masses of unregeuerated mankindâ€"then farewell to the true power and glory of the Christian faith. “ American Tea. A World's Washington special states that- a gentleman who has over 35’ 000 ton plants on a farm near the Savunuas, sent to a commiseioner of Agriculture several samples of tea. The commissi- oner took the samples to New York and went to one of the largest tea establish- ments there. The expert at: once said it. was India tea worth 50 cents a pound. The commissioner of Agriculture had no little difficulty in convincing the cxs port that the tea was grown in this country and could be produced for one- third the price named. The tea was very palatablemnd difficult to di~tiuguish from the imported article. There are constant. applications to the bureau for tea plants. plants will be growing in this country. The cnmuiissiiun-r expected the United States will in a few years be producing as much teas and sugar as may be needed for home consumption. _ .._._...o._.-..,, The Frog Industry.
