Yours, OCCASIONAL. | To the Editor of the Ontario Reformer: . Sik,--For the partial stoppage of the { Oshawa mills, T think the proprietors have themselves to blame. It is unfortunately { becoming the fashion with some of the Oshawa politicians, if anything goes wrong | eitherin business or polities, to charge | everything to the fancied political errors of Messrs. Blake and Brown. I think this | is a most unfair proceeding. 'This has | been the course pursued by the writers in the' Vindieutor of late ; the object is so | transparent that I think few electors will | be gulled thereby. With regard to this | unfortunate wheat business, the Oshawa millers bought largely of Western wheat, | | > | and have no doubt a considerable quantity | on hand yet, it being of a very inferior | quality as compared with our wheat. Had the Oshawa millers bought our good |: { wheat and manufactured a superior brand { of flour, instead of opposing the farmers with inferior American wheat in our own | market, these troubles would not have | come upon them. How often have we {'heard the old ery : "' We cannot but give | you so-and-so ; we can get American wheat | laid down in our miles for that amount, | and cannot. give you any more than that | for your wheat "--{hus bringing Yankee | whent'in competition with ours, and fore- | ing down the price.

Had we spec- | ulated at all on the political consequences | | of his death, we would have prayed most | | earnestly that he might live, for his name | is a tower of strength to the Reform party. | It was having to curry him and his sins | upon their shoulders that broke the backs | | of so many of' the Coalitionists at the last | election.

Axpy Jouxson made a speech at Knox- | ville, in East Tenncssee, on Saturday. He | went squarely for repudiation of the na- | tional debt. *' No nation," he said, has ever yet paid any large public debt with- out repudiation. The debt contracted in the revolutionary war was nearly all re- | pudiated ; and we have no right to make the present debt permanent." He pro. posed that the payments of interest, in- stead of being applied on that account, the principal, and in this way the whole | debt could be wiped out in sixteen years. | Desparcues from Minister Lowe at Pekin, in reference to thecourse of the Chinese authorities towards Christian missionaries, | state the difficulties are principally con- fined tothe French Roman Catholics, whose claims to certain privileges and rights the Chi refuse to recognize.
