An article which we publish to-day deals with the subject of the present low price of wheat, and the question whether that cheapness is warranted by the stocks of the cereal now hold in Ontario, and other circumstances. It appears that during the past season a larger proportion of wheat has been fed to cattle than in the previous season, the reason being that a much greater profit could be got from the grain in that way than by sell- ing it directly. One Ontario farmer says he has obtained a return of 90 cents a bushel, for his wheat by virtually conâ€" verting it into live stock. In one section of Ontario it appears that more wheat has been used for this purpose than for human food. The general result of the inquiries is Notice is hereby given that the above that the consumpuon of the gram for named insolvent has made an assignment cattle‘feeding 119$ greatly increased, and to me of all his property for the benefit of that the stocks In the hands of farmers his creditors. are much smaller this year than last.

These warships will be arranged to enable them to keep the sea longer than any warship now afloat. It is estimated they will be completed in three years. Four gunboats of the new type, to be known as the Linnet class, and similar to the Torch and the Alert, are building at Sheerness. In stead of composite hulls they will have , steel-sheathed wood and copper. They will be of 960 tons, and will be called station gunboats. Their speed will be thirteen knots, and each will cost £60,â€" , 000. In addition to the twenty torpedo- destroyers already projected, twelve others of the same type, with a guaran- teed speed 01’27 knots, and an average cost of £32,000, have been arranged for. «>4 Dogs as Railroad V Passengers. _â€" am.

Very contradictory reports came to hand from Lindsay as, to a street fight which took place there last week over the municipal elections between our re- doubtable confrere, Bro. Sam Hughes, of the Warder, and Mr. Kylie; reeve- elect of that term. It seems that Mr. Kylie is a Roman Catholic, and that during the campaign his co-religionists had been very active in canvassing for a united Catholic vote in his favor. This had been severely commented upon the previous week by the Warder, and on the day after the polling Mr. Kylie reminded Mr. Hughes that he won in spite of the Protestant cry raised. One word brought on another, as the saying _ is, and finally they fell to scrapping. In the Warder Major Hughes acknowledg- ed a jammed nose and considerable of a mauling, but claims the victory on the score of general results, and declares that its editor would have performed in butter style only fora heavy overcoat which interfered with the scientific working of his “jokes.” The Post and Watchman give Kylie the victory by a large majority ; and we fear he had the best of it, although we are loath to adâ€" mit that an editor could be worsted by a member of any town council. We may be mistaken, but it seems to our noble mind that we could, if we so de- sired, walk- up and down the Whitby town council board, stepping at will upon the nooks of the members. We shall have to see this man Kylie when we go out to Lindsay to curl for the Dryden tankal‘d. If he produces illu- sionary stars before the mangled vision of Lindsay newspaper editors, he shall only be able to accomplish it over our prostrate corpse. The honor of the quill-is at stake, and must be vindicat- ed. When we take the trouble to hold an alter-election conference with our enemies we always secrete in our trcwser. log a butcher’s carver with a blade abwut two feet long, a present from Mr. Joseph Stone when he left his stall to go farming. Should the conference culminate in strife, we merely draw the long blade and push it through our ad- versary. Then running around behind him we seize the point of the knife and pull the handle throngh. We then leave the injured man to his meditations. . That weapon we shall carry to Lindsay, MEDICAL. fizzâ€"1“: . A.W.J. DEGRA_SSI,M. 1)., ORONER, Physician,Surgeon,&c., lac. . Residence, Brick Cottage, Wellington street, Lindsay. DR. A. WILSON, â€"II.

Dogs in Belgium, it appears, from a rather singular case that. has just been heard before the law courts of that country, are raised to the dignity of passengers, if their owners choose to take them into a railway carriage with themselves. The point on which opin- ions diflored has just been settled, the question brought under the notice of the law courts being whether a dog whose master has duly taken a ticket for him is entitled to a seat, or whether his rights be limited to a place on the floor of the compartment, at the feet of the human occupants. A sportsman, we read, was not long ago travelling in Belgium with his dog, a fine retriever, whose place had been'paid for. How- ever, in spite of this, there being at a station on the line no room for a trav- eller, a railway employee turned the dogr off his seat. Probably the dog’s feelings were not hurt, but his master protested indignantly, and subsequently â€"' appealed to the administration of the ' state railway fora decision on the sub- ject. It has been given. and is in favor of the dog, it being decreed that he is as much entitled to a seat as his master, and that where a compartment has room for ten passengers, and there happen to be five men and five dogs therein, it must be considered as full, tickets of course being taken for the dogâ€"Lon- don Standard.
