the unanimous choice,
A largely attended' meeting of delegates
from 'the municipalities forming the South'
Riding of Huron, was held in the town
hall Clinton, on Friday last, to select a
candidate in the Reform interest for the
approaching' election. The convention
met at 11. o'clock, Mr. Geo. Anderson,
President of the old South Riding in the
chair, After transacting a few minor
matters, an adjournment took place till
after dinner. On re -assembling, the hall
was nearly,filled. The first business was
the election of officers for the new South
Riding :--Mr. Humphrey Snell, of Hul-
,lett; formerly President of the Centre Rid-
ing, -was chosen as -President of the new
South' Riding. Mr. Geo. Anderson; of
Stanley; formerly President of the South
Riding, was elected' Vice -President;' and•
Dr. Bulburt, of Brucefield; Secretary.
After confirming the present local organ-
izations,.the President called for-nomina=
tions; which were as fellows.:-

Dr. Stewart and, Mr Gray stated :that.
they had no. intention of allowing their
names to"stand, and in a few words asked
their withdrawal. -
. ••Mr. D. D. Wilson was not a candidate;
but improved the opportunity for addres-
sing':many of the .electors of the Riding,.
by delivering a speech that was clear, for-
cible' and convineing,.touching upon many.
of ;the issues before the people•;and- urging
them to:rally to the support
thenominee,>with a tremendous majority
although they had -been hived so'in'-'the
riding. ,
Mr. McLean only.allowed his name•to
g� before the ;convention, because. so many
of his :friends had;requestedhim to:do so..
Would sooner oppose any other man iri
the county •than,: John '_McMillan. IIe
placed" himself 'entirely in the" hand's 'Of
the Convention, and. would heartily abide:',
by their, decision. •
' .Mr. M. C. Cameron could not but ex-
press his unfeigned gratitude to the'elec-
tersof what_was left of South Huron, .for
their -support ,in the, past. '.He believed;.
that ..with `zeal and earnestness on the
part ''of ,Reformers, ithe West Riding
could. be carried successfully: He ' had
unbounded confidence' in the leadership
of:the Hon. Edward ;Blake, and looked',
hopefully.;forward t6! the •:result„of —:this.
campaign; and closed by urging Reform-
ers "not to rest” upon 'their' oars, but :poll
every: available vote,.and those who were -
prepared to do so should go into the. 'ad
joining Ridings between now and the 20th
of June, and,do all they' could to insure
the return of the Liberal candidates. ,
Mr. McMillan thanked the convention
for"his nomination and placed himself at
their disposal. Had, long been identified
with the' Reform party, and felt that the
present was an occasion when "every indr=,
vidual should feel,,a patriotic' interest in
the welfare of the', country. ;.Condemned.
the.gerrymander of";the county and 'Other
acts,of the present ministry as being at
."variance with the best interests of the
people, andsaid thaCshould the conven-
tiondecide in favor .of Mr. McLean; he
would turn in, heartily and support hien:
7""A.:voteLthenbeing taken;' resulted as
follows:—McMillan;`67 ; McLean, 48..
Mr. McLean then. in a neat speech,
moved that ,the nomination of Mr, Mc-
Millan be Made unanimous by ,a.Standing
vote.- `1'o this proposal the meeting
heartily assented,'and the"resolution way
carried wi ; cheers.
an then thanked the dele-
ositioniin which they.: had
for the mark of confidence,,
If chosen ` as their re-
presentative, as 'e felt confideut with the
resiilt"of'the conte ,,he'' would -re resent
them faithfully for, "':, e - , xt e yea
and leave a record of which"lie would " not
be ashamed. > After:referring to the.. vari-.
nus issues -before the people,.; he • took his
'seat amid applause.
The following resolution, was then,car
tied on a standing vote;—a"
- Moved by D. D. Wilson,':: seconded by
Dr. Buchanan," and resolved, That. this;
Convention heartilyapproves of • the con-
duct of Hon. Edward Blake as leader of
the Liberal party" of - Canada, and we
pledge ourselves to use every legitimate
effort at the coming election_to make -old
eHuron—tth.is_standatd old_Reform County:
—send true` and steadfast ,supporters of
Liberalism to strengthen the hands of our
honored leader in the next. Parliament of
the Dominion, notwithstanding the;iniqui-
tous tripple gerrymandering ,of olir'county.
Cheers" for .the "(tiueen and e
candidat
brought the meeting to a:close. • ",.
Mr. N. 1
gates for t e
placed him an
which it applie
Goderich. District Methodist Church.
The following is a summary of the last.
day's proceedings of this meeting here.
The session of Wednesday was attended
by sixteen lay delegates. The salaries
had been paid in full to all the ministers
on the district, with the exception of two.
No minister received any grant from the
missionary fund. The latter amounts to
$2,934 and two circuits yet to report. All
the connexional funds were slightly in
advance: of last year. The membership
is '3,435 against 3,519, showing a very
satisfactory exhibit, considering that the
removals and deaths amount t6545 There.
are reported 12,850 persons attendant on
worship ; 323 baptisms. There are 50
Sunday schools within the district; 549
teachers ; 4,086 scholars. Rev.. W. Mc-
Donagh was elected on the Stationing
Committee; 4. Andrews on the- Sunday
School Committee; and Messrs. Fisher,
ofClinton ; Sturgeon, of Kincardine, and
Pollock, of Goderich delegates to the
general conference, and Mr. Sturgeon to
the -Contingent Fund Committee, which
meets at Conference. A-` resolution ex-
pressive of the high esteem in which•Rev;
Dr. Williams is held in the •district, and
regret at the prospect of his removal there-
from, was very cordially passed.
Also "a resolution, deprecating the in-
troduction of a modified episcopacy among
the members.
Also one on union, expressing :that the
meeting was in favor of the principle, but
thought that the `idifferentbodies of _Me-`
thodism need to be brought nearereach°
other in spirit 'and . discipline first..'.
Aleft one on class meetings, deprecating
any alteration of: our present rule concern-
ing them.
The meeting closed, soon after 6 p.m.
It was to be regretted that though all the
delegates 'had, been specially elected to at-
tend for the purpose of voting for dele-
gates to the General Conference, many of
them left before that important election:
came off, and thus- the three delegates
were elected tb the most important of all
councils of Methodism, by, only thirteen
present. Surely the delegates do 'heft rear
lige their; responsibility; ; or . they would
either have refused the election' as dele-
gates to the district meeting, or have.
came and stayed to cast their ballot. There
were twenty-one delegates ` elected so that
at the time of election there were nine not
at their posts, this depriving nearly one''
half of the membership of the district of
their vote as to who shall constitute the
next General Conference: It' is to be
hoped that at the next electionfor similar
purpose the membership will see to this
matter, that they elect delegates willing
to go and Stay to do the business for which
they are elected.
