MINING SHARPS.

properties are foisted upon innoco
and ignorant purclmseia.Veste
mining oponxtors are certainly , to BI
the least , no more wicked than easto
operators in "arious opcculativo onte
prises. Every mine , until its value
assured by a steady production of tl
precious metals in paying quantiti
is a business speculation. It must 1

There are certainly no icasons wl
mining may not bo carried on just
honorably and just as tuirly as ai
other enterprise operated by a sto

try in the west furnishes n number
examples in proof of tli
position. The great dumber
mining investments , ni in rai
road stock operations , is th
the desire to make money r.ipidly

statement of them will bo of interei
Tn 187U there was a feeling of qrc
depression among the English furme
and widespread disappointment v
oxprcstcd becausetlio goveimne
iH'gloctod their interests , This disj
pointmont made itself felt ; but , i
stead of applying any remedial me ;
sures , a Commission of Inquiry w
appointed. Thu two associations th
existing , the Farmers' Club and t
Central Chamber , v\hich wcro und
Conservative control , brought
prctanro to bear upon the govor
ment , but accepted the comnmsio
which had no more idea of grant !
the requests of the farmers than t
barnacles of the Circumlocution Cfli
had of satisfying Arthur Clennii
when he attempted hia L'tMiorons i
rand for Daniel Doyce. Under the
circumstances , the moro ardent of t
agricultural 'reformers formed t
Formers' Alliance , an organi/wtion e
tirely kept aloof from politics , ai
bent upon advocating and securing i
forms purely from the tenant-farmoi
standpoint. The program of the al
jinco is thua stated by ono of iti mxn
inent members in the Ixmdon lime
Security for thu capital of tomml
freedom in the cultivation of the si
and the disposal of itj produce , refer
of the game laws , apportionment
rates between owner and occupier , i
adjustment of tithe rent charge , alu
ition of the law of distress , reform
laws relating to ownership and trni
for of land , securing ratepayers tlu
legitimate eharo in county govor
uicnt , watching over the interests
fanners in respect of railway charge
maintenance of oiTcclivo rcgulatiui
in respect of cattle diseases , the bo
tar representation of tenant-faimcra i
Parliament.
The proginm nf the ] ] iurliah farn

chides the main poin'A of justit
which have been conceded to the Iris
tenants , Riich as security for their ca ]
ital , which includes their improvi
inont of rales and refoim of the law
relating to ownership and transfer <
lands , but aho many otlier.roforma <
a minor character no compaicd wit
the alwve. 'J'ho allinnco has cvidun

actually o\vo its origin to the Lati
League , and wo may well believe wi
briny its demands bcfoio P.irliaincr
tvilh oven 1.101 e force and push thn
the Irish Land bill vvai prcsnud , hi
cauao it has moro intelliuuaco atid it
iluenco in its lanka. It is one of Hi
great meaiuros which the Liberal pai
ty will have to father , for , bavin
awarded justice to Irish farmer' , i
part at least , it cannot consistent !
refuse justice to Knglish farmcn
Judging by the steady progress th
alliance is making the Btrugirlo camu

pieto settlement of the Irish qucatioii
hcforo it comes to tha front demanc
