This sand was allowed to run into the pan ; and when the pressure was sufficient to mm'e the lever, a string unloosened the funnel, "and the balance of the sand dropped suddenly into the pan, moved the lever, and so the board ignited the matches, thus firing the barn. A belated traveller passing“ discovered the thing in working order, rushed in and saved it, and presented it to the in- surance adjuster as an evidence of the ingenuity of man. The Hartford Phoenix Insurance Com- pany lately unearthed the latest incen- diary device in connection with an $1, 000 barn loss in Sclmharie county,.NeW York.

It is an undeniable rule of the trade that ad- vertising pays. Of course the same judgment and prudence must be exer- cised in advertising as in any other part of one’s business. If that is not done, instead of paying it may become a; source of loss; It is more necessary to advertise now than it was fifty or one hundred years ago. People are more busy now than they were then. They have less time and leisure to look about for what they want. They look to the newspapers to learn where their wants can be supplied, and they accept it as a settled rule that a man who advertises the commodities which he has to dis- pose of, instead of waiting for people to find out the fact for themSelves, Is the best man to deal with, and most likely to give satisfaction.

It is gratifying to observe that, al l though the Government organs have not yet done with the “ Pacific Scandal,” they are beginning to be ashamed to mention it. Even the Globe is growing apologetic on the subject; yet We m‘nst protest that it is somewhat late in the day to tell its readers that it has “ no desires to revive dead issues as they are called.” What, in the name of' goodâ€" ness, has it being doing besides ever since Mr. Mackenzie took office ? The strategy of the party has been consistent throughout and may be summoned up ina few Words â€"- living on the sins and shortcomings ofjits predecessors; We haile'had “'Paéific'_ Scandal 7’ ‘on the‘ half shell, raw, st’eWedpscollop‘ed and fried. It seemed a strange way of vindv icating the good name of the existing Governmentybut it appears to have been the only one open to the organs. What the people desireflis a defence of the pol- icy“ of,the ins on'its oWn merits, not a stale rehash of the'delinquencies of the nuts. They have ceased to care about the Cartier-Macdonald fiasco. the ver- dict ofthe'cOuntry ‘was pronounced upon it and the delinquencies of the cit-Minis- ters‘ba‘ve been amply punished. People are heartily sick of the subject and Would vety‘ much like it it' the present Administration could coutrive to stand on its owu bottom. But, quot-h the- Globe,‘ Sir. John will not let it alone; he made a speech about it at Uxbridge, prior the South Ontario election. Did he? Pray.’ is that the first time the unâ€" savoury subject has been inenlionedl during the past year ‘P We think not; l but we do think that a semi religious; journal should be .more truthful. Then l follows a passage which our readers may ‘ langh at when they having nothing bet- ter to do 1â€"“ The question is not a motel election cry (l) as the organs of the late Government seek to make it. It is one that needs to be viewed in all serious- ness.” rl‘he time For seriousness with the “ Pacific Scandal” is long past and the farce is now going on.â€"-National. ; In Algeria. there is a. river 'of genuine Ink. It is formed by the union of two streams, one coming from a. region of ferruginous soil, the other draining a. beat swamp. The water of the former is strongly impregnated with iron, that of the latter with gallic acid. When the the two waters mingle the acid of the one unites with the iron of the other; forming a true ink. \Ve are familiar with a. stream called Black Brook in the northern part of this state, the inky color of whose water is evidently due to like conditions. The attention of advertisers is directed to our advertising rates, which appear on the first, second and fouth pages, Consider- ing the inereased and rapidly increasing cix- culation of THE HERALD they are fixed at a low figure} in fact considerably lower than many country papers of no larger circulaticn. It is not for us to blame the people at Servia if they make a renewed attempt to free themselves from the remnant of Turkish authority which afiiicted their fore-fathers for generations; and if , Russia can only be restrained from an attempt to extend her sway to the injury ‘ other, neighbours and of civrlization, we should be very well content to see all the Countries on the eastern side ofthe Black Sea formerly severed from the Turkish Empire, and become free and independ-‘ ent states. “ Turkey in Europe ” is an anomaly. and the prejudices and habits of the Mussulmans, whose power ot‘the sword is departed, should no longer be allowed to interfere with the prosperity of'large and fertile, though thinly peopled countries. As amatter of'neighbourâ€" hood, Austria has much more to do with these provisions than Russia. The Austrian frontier stretches along the north of Croatia, Bosnia, Servia, and Wallachia. The Russian plea rests mainly on the pretence of religious sym- pathy, that being a mere attempt to pass herself off before the world as the representative of the Eastern Church, as the Pope represents the Latin Church; and such atrocities as those reâ€" cently reported from Bulgaria, must naturally , raise the indignation, and stimulate the fears of the surrounding States. It may seem rather impertinent that a little State like Servia should take upon itself to disturb the peace of the world, should stir up anxieties in the cabinets of Great Powers, and should threaten to scatter the sparks of the in- cendiary far and wide. But little States, like little men, have often a high idea of their own importance; and if' they cannot ,do much good, they like to make the ‘ world feel their power to do evil. " Ecr via. might fight Turkey now as long as 1 she fought in her war of independence, which took place when Europe was en- gaged with Napoleon I, and we should have no objections to see her incorporate with herself the countries lying between her and the Adriatic, thus bringing her Within reach of the civilising influences of commerce. At present she is thinly peopled, poor and in accessible; and men’s minds naturally revolt at the sight of' the fine countries lying between the Adriatic and the Black Sea, remaining semi-barbarous and unproductive, while commerce is seeking new developments in the most distant regions of the earth. Butjttrar is not the best civiliscr. If Ser- via would devote herself to peaceful in- dustry, she would make her way in the world much sooner than by becoming the cat’s-paw of Russia. m *ANA ..

On that occasion we remarked that this class had iuVolved Great Britain in more than one unjustifiable centest, the lightest part of the burden of which, if any at all, was only borne by them. We now republish on another page from Broad Arrow of 10th June, an article entitled “Securitiesâ€"Political and Commercial’Ko-one paragraph of which is of such an astounding character as to c-inse the reader to pause and ask can human villainy possibly dccend to the depth portrayed by the writer?â€"--yet there it is, and public documents up~ pealed to in confirmation of the most atrocious of human crimes. the commercial class will) referenCe to Mr. Biassey’s committee on naval affairs; and the declaration made by Broad Arrow that. the oWners of'tlic mercantile marine of Great Britain would not submit to measures that would in any Way interfere with the 'unre- striated pursuits of their own intgrcsts. We had occasion in a recent issue to motion the outcry made in the British 0%. W917 Yr It was long a matter of Wonder to the student of the strategy of the Crimean war why the Isthmus of Perikop, conâ€" necting that peninsula with the main land, was not seized by the British as the direct road to Odessa, and Kherson ran through it, and all the supplies as. weIl as reinforcements for the Russian army passed over it. Its occupation by the Allies would have insolated Sebasn topol, While the possession of the Sea ol’ Amt, 'which was effected at the close of the war, would haVe rendered the siege Unnecessary and have insured the cap- ture of the fortress asvwell as the Sur- render of the Russian fleet without. the loss in blood, treasure, and prestige the operations actually undertaken involved ; but new ’t turns ‘out that all this was rendered impossible beca‘use some Eng- lish merchants owned valuable property on, ihe Isthmus and were afraid its value would be licensed 771ililary oper- ations were carried on there. To the lasting disgrace and eternal shame of the Ministry of the Day those reasons Were allowed to prevail, and no attempt. was made to close the only high way the Russian Emperor had to his be- leagured fortress, kept only for him by the rascality of‘the Mifiistry and the cupidity of English speculators. We question very much whether the pages of history furnishes an instance of deeper villany. Those menâ€"Ministers and Merchants~are answerable for the blood needlessly shed on this occasion, and the latter are the men the English press would make the World believe to pe the representatives of the British race. The word can well understand why the Tory premier gave the English workman household suffrage. If’this other contest which is impending, and is direct outcome of the imbecility and treachery detected, comes oflLit is to be hoped the present Ministry will not only disregard mercantile interests, so called, but will make the class feel that those interests are no longer apart from tnose of the Empire.-â€"- Voluntccr Review.
