Straw will be short, but the heads are well filled with heavy grain. There will be no hardship, as most farmers will have sufficient, or nearly sufficient bay to put them through, and those who have to buy will not be obliged to pay fancy prices. The great fright iu which the farm- ers of some districts fonnd themselves can now be looked back to with some- thing like grim humor. Even re- garding the district which appears to have been most affected, we are tohl that not twenty farmers would accept chanty from any source. Some of our politicians appear to have been attempting to tnaku capital out of the "scare" by playing good Samaritan when it was not necessary. The recent terribly fatal riots in China, by which ten people lost tin n h vis, will. scaicely have the effect that *hc rioteie so fondly hope for. It will t;iv the missionaries an opportu- nity of showing of what material their (liMstiuuity consists, and exhibiting to the benighted Chinaman the Chris- tian character in a new light that of the irartyr. He ban not known here- tofore what Fdcrilices the devout mid. siouary is really prepared to undergo HI oidur to carry tl>e Cilad Tidings to all tin- world, bat he will know now. Nor did th* curietian world itself careely understand the true value and bravery of the gallant missionar- ies ho have so fearlessly taken their lives in their hands and marched be- cath the banner of the crocs against the cohorts of darkness. We feel proud of them now. Their hands will undoubtedly be strengthened by this recent persecution, and foreign Uii;*iuns will attract more attention (rum -LI people than they have in the past. tie We btlievu such baptisms of to be direct interventions of . doiiigiied to open the eyes 1 1 our owu people as well as those of tin heathen.

On, ye brave V\ IM mall tu ulury or Ihu The Advaoce has received a long communication from Me. Robert Watt of Seftou complaining of indignities heaped upon him by his arrest for laboring on the Sabbath. Mr. Watt is a Seveutit Day AdveuiMrt aud be- lieves In keeping Saturday as Ins holyday, and the decision of Justice Forhan of Chatham was to tbe effect that there is no law to prevent farm- ers from working on Sunday. We have not the space to admit Mi. Wait's communication, and as he sus- tained no actual hardship, the magis- trate having dismissed the case, its publication would not be an act of chaiit}. If Mr. Watt believes in keeping 1 Saturday as his Sunday, let him k-ep it. The whole Christian world acceptM the first day of the week as the day on which to observe the command to do n work. Had it accepted or chosen the seventh day of the week we cannot see that it would have made any difference to the soul's sal /alien. Mr. Watt aud his com- patriots appear tt> hclievo that it would, aud hive undertaken the her- culean Ia.sk of changing the day. To our mind it is a email matter to pother about. Tbore are too many clu-istiaus in this age who Lick like mules at any deflection from the letter of Urn moral law while they unflinch- ingly break the spirit of it every day. Improve the Roads.
