Lucknow, Juae 30th, 3882.
IT really does seem queer; when
you think of it, that of , the men who
signed the annexation manifesto an
,1849, five have been knighted by the
Queen. The last of the lot is Sir John
Abbott, the present Dominion Prem-
ier. The others were Sir David Mac-
pherson, Sir Alexander Galt, Sir John
Rose and Sir Hugh Allin, Threat -
,ening annexation seems to have been a
short cut to knighthood. Is this what
Sol. White is after.—Dundas Banner.
'GRIP gets off a good thing on the.
'new Highland regiment in Toronto, of
which so much has been said in the
apers. The regiment ia arrayed in,
11 Highland uniform, and is supposed
to e composed exclusively of,"Toualds"
and `�Tuncans," But it is said that
fully two thirds are from merry
England and the Green .Isle. Grip's
squib is entitled "After the March''
and in dialogue form as follows :
First Highlander --"Well, by Jove,
you know, if Hi'd 'ave knowed that
this 'ere blooming rig wasso sanguinary
cold Hi don't think Hi'd 'ave joined."
Second Highlander—"och, fwhat's
the matter wid you ? Its an illigant
'dress intoirely, an' a mon that's so
tinder that he cant stand a little cowld
wud never make a sojer."
The proposal of a memorial to Mr.
Mackenzie, which has been started in
Toronto, is a good one. It is that a
fund be raised for the endowment . of
chairs in political science in the
° Toronto and McGill universities, the
Ontario subscriptions to go to the
former and the Quebec ones to the
latter on the death of Mrs Mackenzie,
who during her life is to receive the
interest .yielded by the , fund. This
would be a memorial particularly
suitable to a public man so disinter-
- ested, so unassuming and possesssed
so little vanity as Mr. MacKenzie.
The following contributions have
already been received for the Alex-
• ander Mackenzie Memorial Fund by
tha treasurer, Mr. S. H. Blake : W.
Corisite, $1000 ; Blake, Lash & Cas-
sels, per Hon.)Edward Blake, Q. C.,
$750; George A. Cox, $500 ; Robert
Jaffray, $500 ; Edmund /B. Osler,
,$500 ; Wm, Muloclr, M. R, $500
Eby, Blain & Co., $50Q ; B. B. Osler,
•$400; G. W. Kiely, $500. Total
$5,150. Such assurance have been
given by others . willing to participate
in the memorial that it is thought
at the 'close of the week another
$5,000 will be received.
VAST MINERAL RESOURCES,
/lo•►' Ontario rill] l'IvertIse her Great
Natural Wealth at the'orlel's Fr.ir.
The World's Fair at Chicago will
be the first exhibition that has ever
done justice to the minerals of Ontario.
Canada has been allotted 10,000 feet
altogether for minerals, of which
Ontario should have at least 4,000 feet,
while 5,000 feet will be used if it can
be obtained. These minerals come
from all sections of the Province.
From the immediate country north
east of Toronto comes lead, copper,
iron, gold, marble, - graphite mica,
asbestos, and phosphate, of lime.
Then from Western Ontario comes
gypsum, petroleum, marl, salt, terra-
cotta clay, and various kinds of build-
'ng stone. Around. Sudbury and on
the north shore of Lake Huron are
found rich deposits of nickel, copper
and iron, while further west are silver,
marble and lead ; in fact these are
found all over the northern portion
of the Province.
A fact not generally known, even
in the province itself, but which this
-exhibit will fully , show the world, is
thatin various parts of Ontario, such
as Renfrew, Cornwall, Frontenac and
•some of the northern districts, . the
finest marbles and grranites, grey,
black, white and brown. to be obtained
anywhere in the world are found.
Hon. A. S. Hardy, Commissioner
of Crown Lands, is determined to
have the mineral resources of this
Province properly advertised to the
world, and looks at the coming fair
The Lucknow Sentinel, BruceCounty, Friday,
as Ontario's opportunity. By this
direction every effort is being made to
assist the Ontario Commmisnioner for
the fair tosecure a collection worthy
of the Province, and which it is
naturally well able to produce.
FIENDS FOILED.
Attempt to Wreck a Grand Trunk train
two Miles East ofCllaton,
Clinton, Ont., June 5.—A diaboli-
cal attempt was made last night to
wreck the evening express from
Stratford to Goderich due here at
9.20. Some fiends had piled timber
on the track, and had the train been
on time the chances are (as the
night was cloudy), that the train
would have been thrown down the
embankment. •
Mr Holliman, of Stapleton, had
been to Seaforth, and finding the
train late started to walk home ` along
the track, carrying a lantern. When
near the bridge near Sapleton, about
two miles east of here, he found the
obstructior- on the track, and being
unable to remove it he went - back
towards Seaforth and warned the
appoaching train, thus averting a loss
of property and most probably of life.
IN CONDOLENCE.'
The following is a copy of a resolu-
tion passed by Ward, Colorado, Lodge

Finlayson, Ward Lode, No. 22, I, U. O. F.
has lost a faithful and zealous member, his
family a loving husband and father, and the
community a man of sterling vv: al and strict
integrity.
Resolved that Ward Lodge, No, 22, I. 0,
O F., of Colorado, extends its heartfelt sym-
pathy to the sorrowing family in this their
hour of great affliction.
Resolved that this Lodge morn by draping
the charter for thirty days and members
wearing the erape in button hole on coat or
vest for same time.
Resolved that these resolutions be!spread
upon the minutes and a copy under seal be
