A Rebuke from Canada.

The Hon. David Mills, Canadian minister of justice, has recently been saying some exceedingly harsh things with regard to the alleged indisposition of descendants of the Pilgrims to raise large families. Among other things, he said: "The-New England people are upon the soil, but are not of it. They obviously dislike farming as much as their women do having children, and were it not for the incapable among them, and the foreigners who have taken up their residence among them, there would be neither children born nor fields cultivated."
