' 1'�e Committee of Tx1 'ihc 1 4 swim t is known us the Third Party, Which was organized at Toronto, March 21, has isened' an address to the people. The party's plat- form is as follows :— ---Righteousness.and truth in public af- fairs as welt as in private -business, and no compromise with wrong. Equal rights for all or.ee ,Fi said„ nationalities, exclusive ries-.-Bo none. • A national sentiment, a national Hos- rehire, and in all matters of public policy—our country first. The prompt and absolute prohibition of the liquor traffic, and the honest and vigorous enforcement of all laws -for the repression of vice and intemperance. Retrenchment and economy in public expenditure, with the view of reducing our enormous national debt. Manhood suffrage, with an education- al qualification ; that is, a vote to every freeman of legal age who can read and write. The "eztention of the franchise to women. An elective senate. Civil Service reform. Tho address points out the in- efficiency of the two groat political parties to promptly deal with these questions, refers to " the evils of the party system," and maintains that tho remedy con- sists in substituting a reign of principles for a reign of corrup- tion. For such a movement the hour is regarded as propitious. No, doubt the promoters of the Third Party glean well, but they overlook the flet that govorument without party is impossible, and the very adoption of the above platform means party isn: to that extent. Nearly the whole of this platform is the Liberal ono, and while ono of the present political parties is willing to act on the lines laid clown, .we fail to se'e`the necessity for a new party. If the adherents oftheThird Party are really sincere they can accomplish their purposes in standing by the party most in line with theta now. It is only a waste Of time agitat- ing for the fin -motion of a third party, and it will not bo long lie - fore the agitators realize this. 44,11PW>l�A•'l",1'liS�.

It is quite clear, from the action � cided to at once put petitions in +cireulatiuu lor a repcal'vote of the of the Citizens' Committee, of Gode- I Scott Act. rich, that if it represents the opin- ,,ionis._of.its-fnllow_ townspeople -,,_the_ influence of the county' seat is to be used against a line via Clinton. The newspapers of that town appear to be also of the same mind Well if •of cattle have been exported from ' Montreal, against 0,827 for the Clinton tights the battle alone, the sante period last year. victory to be won will be all the Hon.T. W. Anglin hoe been ap- greater. We have something more pointed as Ontario representative to offer as inducements to a com- at the Centennial Exhibition to peting line of railway than that of being rnerely a port on the lake shore. We have extensiyemen_u- factories, centrality of position, con- veniencies of leading country roads, advantages of being already a rail- way centre, and the fact of solid growth and ptogresa, to attract the attention of any cowEany building another line to the lake. These things forte one of the most import- ant parts of the requirement Mr VanHorne says the C.P.R. will look for in locating their line. The Goderich Signal refers to three proposed routes for the exten- sion westwards of the C.P.R. from Guelph, all, of course, terminating at Goderich. It favors what is known as the Northern route, tap- ing in Listowel, Brussels, Blytb and Manchester,and points out what it considers to be the disadvantages of a line through Clinton. It winds up • by exclaiming, with apparent glee, "Ali aboard for Guelph via Blytb, etc., etc." Of late the Sig- nal is nothing, if not amusing. What with its .Ajax's effusions, the vehe- mence of friend Kidd, the coddling of •treasurer. Holmes' and Patrick Kelly, Esq., and numerous other indications of its ability to furnish a first-class comic paper at $1.50 per year in advance, the Signal has been a source of very considerable fun. It has not dealt will this Railway question, however, with its metal candor. - Have the Signal and the people of Goderich not yet heard that the most seriously discussed route amongst the C. P. R. officials is one that, takes in Seaforth, Clinton, Stanley, Goderich tp. andBa-y,field? Have they not beard of a probable agreement between the Grand Trunk. and the C. P. 11., not to in- terfere with the terminal points of each other? Goderich has long been' deluding itself ,with the. tbought.tbat it was to be the termi- nus itt any event of 'fetation, but it is not'so, The Lake shore terminus is not a• settled matter, and is no more certain than the location of the route through Clinton.' As has been repeatedly stated, our 'people ate perfectly satisfied that Goderich should rejoice in be. ing the terminus of the C. P. R., so long as Clinton were served, but if the County Town is determined to work against us, we must, in 'self- defence, seek such combinations as will best promote our interosts,even if in so doing we drive one more nail into the coffin of the "burg by the sea." We understand an im- portant move in this direction will soon be Made, which will be made public a;l'in good time. THE Ontario Government lost no time in selecting a successor to the Deputy P� •ovincial Treasurer, who rosigned.on Tuesday, and on Wednesday, Mr D. E. Cameron, of Lucknow, was appointed as his successor. If they hadswaited for six months, and in the meantinlo had their life almost pestered out by applicants,they could not have made. a better selection. Mr .Cam,ron has been for eleven years a private banker in Lucknow ; ho has also been engaged for six years in the Batik of Toronto, and was for a time •manager of the Ex- change Bank at Parkhill: He is a. thorough bookkeeper, and his largo experience as a banker will admirably qualify liim to fill the important position to which he has been, called. His .appoint- ment will withdraw him from the arena of acture politics,and in this respect it will be hard on D. E,, for he gave promise at no distant clay of being re of the foremost Liberals of the Province. How- ever, a man can sacrifice a good many aspirations for short hours and $2200 a year. Mr Cameron is to be congratulated on his good fortune. A groat tempest has been raised in Detroit. over an invitation ex- tended to some Canadians too ov- er and spend the Fourth. Up to date this year 6,158 head ONE of the Winnipeg papers thinks that even if the charges made in the Legislature against the late Nol'quay government are true, it was hardly the nice thing for Mr Greenway to rub it into his opponents the way he did. Certainly not. It was very mean of him to expose the rascalitios of his predecessor. Ho should have sup -cased the evidence and said nothing about it. It is only when the culprits are "Grits" that an exposure should take place,and then their opponents would make out tho facts about fifty times work- Than they: really are. It is understood that Sir Charles Tupper sails for England to re- sume the offioo of High Commis- sion' on the 24th, in the same vos- ., sel with the Governor-Uonoral Premier Mowat, Bishop Lewis and Mgr. Soule: 1, be held at Cincinnati this summer. Mr. Henry Bracken, miller, of Boston mills, was uominatod by the Cfti•owell Reform-Convon-tion, at Mono Mills, on Saturday. At Ottawa, for using filthy lan- guage on the street to It lady and gentleman, Andrew Thornton was tined. $50 by the Magistrate on Tuesday. George Ross a peddler, aged 75, registered at the Commercial IIo te!, Toronto, on Friday night. He blew out the gas anu was found dead on Saturday. Albert Swinburne, a brakeman, who belongs to Palmorston,had his right arm badly smashed while' coupling cars at Harrisburg on Saturday. Amputation was ogees.! ary. Tbo houses on Gatineau Point along the Ottawa .River, are rout - dated, owing to the flood. Some are living in the upper storey-, but others have had to abandon their I houses. In Minnesota, Dakota, Wiscon- ' sin and Iowa the season is from two to -three weeks later than usn- i al. In southern New England, i the Middle Atlantic Status and the Ohio Valley it is about one tvicek later. Last Sunday night after return- ing from the Presbyterian Church Mrs William Blain of Orillia,askcd her maid to prepare some gruel. NEAR Qu'Appelle, N. W. T., is an immense property known as " the Bell farm." . Tho Dominion Government, wanting to start an experimental farm up there, have bought 600 acres of this land at $12 an,acro. Now it dons seem very singular, to say the least, that the government should pay this price for land, . while at the same time it has thousands of acres lying vacant, of just as good land. There's a nigger in the fence, somewhere, and the pro- bability is that Major Bell is a good solid government supporter, and gets paid for Iris assistance in this way. It is estimated that 250 Veciscls will be required to -convey East the surplus of last year's grain crop still held in Manitoba and the Northwest. Over 2,000,000 busbols are store 1 at Fort William alone. Near New Martinsville, W. Va., Miss May Ingold accidentally kil- led her lover by dropping a stone on his head from a bridge. Ho was washing his hunds__.in the stream below, and sho intended to splash water on hint. An insect has made its appear- ance in Darts of Ottawa county which it is feared is going to do great damage to the grain crop, and particularly to peas and wheat. The insect is about half an inch long, and notwithstanding that into gl ain is only coming above gr Judd, the destructive worms are .at wel k at' the rootand the stick is killed. It is a few days since they were dis- covered. In reply to an tl dross by 1200 Quakers in favor of Horne Rule on Monday, Mr Gladstone said it would have been difficult W per- suade him that.any large cumber of Friends could be so little in harmony with the noble social traditions of their body as to ap- prove a coercive policy towards Ireland. He received the address with pleasure as a definite evi- dence of the Friends' sentiments. W. 11. Harris, Deputy Provin. tial Treasurer, and lion. A. M. Ross, Provincial 'Treasurer, had a little argument about the duties devolving upon the Deputy, and it seems they haven't conte to an amicable conclusion. Mr. Harris' has in the meantime sent in his resignation. lir D. E. Cameron, of Lucknow, has been appointed in succession to Mr Harris. By mistake the maid used meal I THE OTTAWA FREE PPEss SATs: which Contained "Rouglion Rats." —The Liberals have every reason Mrs Bain died within an- hour i to be satisfied with and encour- after partaking of the gruel.

It cut through his ribs on the right side, and into the liver and lungs, allowing part of the intestines to protrude. Iie was not expectad to recover. A Niagara Falls despatch says : IRev. George Tompkins and wife, whose domestic troutsles led to the minister's discharging 4 revolver at Contractor Lundy a fortnight since, have agreed upon a sottle- mont and separation. The property is equally divided between them, and Mrs. Tomkins retains the cus- tody of the child. A. man named • Italie Dames Dealt] tdropped dead on Main -street IIull,on Monday. It is said death was caused through starvation. An examination of his premises revealed the fact that thele was not a particle offoad there. The coroner's jury brought in a Ver- dict of "Death from exposure end heart disease." Tho deceased is said to have been too proud to make known his condition. A heavy sentence has been impos- ed on Simon Hamburg foi• swind- ling a man out of $10,000. Last November Hamburg and an accom- plice sold to, a man named Parker, an Oregon farmer, certain real es - tato in San Francisco to which they had no title.Parkor did not examine tho title, but gave them $8,000 and his farm in Oregon, worth $6,500. When recently the title to the city property was found to be defective Hamburg entered a plea, that he sold under a belief that the title was perfect, but bo would not re- fund the money. Later Ham- burg's accomplice confessed that Hamburg had deliberately planned to rob Parker of his money. Tho jury.then found Hamburg guilty, and tho court, in sentencing the prisoner, regretted that the crime of which he was guilty was only a misdemeanor in California. Tho judge then sentenced hint to im- prisonment in 'the county jail for ono year, and that be pay a fine equal to double theaniount of mon ey ho fraudulently obtained from Parker—namely, a fill() of $19,000 and in defauft of payment of the find he bo further imprisoned at the rate of one day for each dollar. If the find is not paid Hamburg will have to serve fitly -three }-ears and twenty days. - by the country. Without being too aggrosive, Mr Laurier has been ever ready to defend the :sights of his supporters in debate, and his speeches upon tho princi- pal issues have been models of ex- cellent diction, genuine eloquence, and sound argument. No politi- cal leader ever -secured tho admir- ation of his political friends more completely than Mr Laurier has cions during the session just clos- ing, and the Opposition members separate in excellent spirits, and with a determination to maintain a vigorous and persistent cam- paign upon the reciprocity and reform platform. At every elec- tion held si nee unrestricted .reci- procity was formally adopted as the policy of the Opposition, the Liberals have been victorious. For the ministerialists the session has been . ono ofrepeated •e gated back -downs and humiliations. At the opening of the session it was an- nounced that tho poliey!of dissal- lowing Manitoba railway charters was to bo adhered to. It was de- clared that the conserving of Northwest traffic within the coun- try was part of the national pol- icy, and that the government would • never allow the trade of that region to bo diverted to American channels. But no sooner did Mr Greenway appear in Ottawa than Sir John Macdon- ald weakened, and agreed to al- low the construction -of any num- ber of railways from points in Manitoba to the United States boundary. Tho backdown of the government on the fisheries and standing offer question are fresh in the public mind. The Conser- vatives have been compelled to got off the fence with respect to the reciprocity question, and to declare unequivocally in favor of restriction for restriction's sake. After placing the producers of seeds, trees, fruits and shrubs in a position where they must face American competition, thogov- ernment,. have modified their standing offer of reciprocity in such a way as to precludo its ever being accepted by :Unite• Status, In •fict tho proceedings of tiro past session have demon- strated that the Conservative party aro simply, in a political sense, living from hand to mouth, beingutterly without policy, principles or convictions with re• spect to any political issue, Around int C. ant li, C 'R• TA " !% 1OX, Ii.ru.s,lele sass stltnetlt is V000ii nese QI l4.0'Tldl. .. cutin leek ret . lio t copies. tb .t* 4 little cold of 41r. rlobn; IatB of Seaforth got ono of its fingers bto'ren by, getting it Caught in >i door as it watt being shut,.

About. half past 12 o'clock on Sunday morning last, the extensive saw and planing mills of Messrs. Wiles & Sanderson were seen in flames, but the fire had got such headway that nothing could be done to save the buildings.

Mr. Ragen took his place but had not worked long before he, too, had his thumb. severed, in the same man- ner as Mr Ratz's accident occurred. An Ethel correspondent 'writes. —At different times lately obstrue. tions have been placed on the railroad near this station with the view of ditching the train. Railroad ties were used first and recently a citcular saw propped up by large stones. In both' instances the obstruct''ons'were seen in time, and an accident aver ted. Detective Ross was in this locality this week looking up the matter but no arrests have been made yet. On Saturday morning the Wing - ham rink wss discovered to be on fire. An alarm was sounded and -the firemen responded, but before they arrived Mr. T. Bell Mc. Andrews had quenched the fire by ratans of a chemical apparatus. Two good-siz- ed holes were burnt through the roof near the front of the building but no further damage was .done. The fire is supposed to have origin- ated from sparks alighting on the roof from the smoke -stack of the furniture factory. A Detroit paper says : Eight months ago Elizabeth and Jennie Quinland, sisters, aged respective- ly 20 and 18, loft their home in Seaforth, Ont,, and came to Detre. it to engage in service, They se- cured situations as waiters at the St. Elmo Hotel, and up to two weeks ago aro reported as having been faithful servants, Thursday night, in company with William Shepard,. living at 128 Michigan avenue,' they were lodged in the Central Police Station.

C1IUTElti Te the +(L'if•itor the of Aim Sm. Sut,••,Peritiit inc 64004 o4eppy a portion of your pepwin regard to the above matter. My forme; letter fell ,Uke a bomb shell into 'the exieruy's camp, and for a few days thero.w-as no small atir.and running hither and thith- er to fend out what sb,oula be done. Your note and the truthfulness of the letter could not be surmounted, so there was no reply. -.-Oh, if there had only been a brook, and a smooth stone and a sling, the rest of the verse was there. Mr Rogers (I am told) stated at Ebe- nezer and Einburn that my letter'was false, and for them to take no notice of it, but he has not dared to deny it in Londesboro church, or in print. One friend of his was looking for four false- hoodsthought he found one. The prin- cipal witness -against the ladies was the wife of one of the committee,and n as a sample of her evidence she stated,and re- peated it withemphasis,that MrsAdams talked for one hour and a half. The truth is given by another member, who left her home at 2 p.m., went about 20 rods to the place of meeting, was in good time, then the meeting was opened by Mrs Rogers with reading and prayer, and the minutes read and approved. There were ten ladies present, all talked part of the time, each had their say, and then began to sew ; this member then left, and arrived home at 3:20 on the same day. ' Yet that evidence, which was so crisp, was accepted, and a conviction secured. I said lit tle about my own case, so I shall take it up n®w. I was accused of false- hood, originating and perpetuating trou- ble. The falsehood • was stating that "Mr Rogers unduly pressed the accep- tance of his account." He stated at the trial that ho had not spoken to.one of the trustees before or since' the meet- ing, about voting to pay the account. I did not say he did, but I did and do says that he asked the meeting as a whole, twice at least, if they would ac- cept it, and he got no response, then he asked Mr Stanley, personally, if he would move it, and he did; then he asked all again for some one to second it, but there was no response, when the name of Mr Tamblyn was suggested, and lie asked him, personally, and he did it. This I consider pressing the acceptance of the bill, and no falsehood. Let any who can—deny this statement. The falsehood was with himself, not with me. Another scene at the last meeting of the quarterly board—five of the members of Londesboro appoint- ment (two were trustees of this church) went into the church while the board was in session, Mr Rogers looked at them, and then said, " I see some friends here who are not members of the board, they will please retire." He gave no reason, but they might come back at 4 o'clock. At the ap- pointed time they returned, when two were admitted to read a petition signed by 81 members and three adherbnts of Londesboro church, asking Mr Rogers to remove from the circuit. After reading the petition, they were again requested to leave, although the board had passed a•motion that they might remain. The board disregarded the wishes of the petitioners, and invited Mr Rogers to remain. He consented to do so for any salary they might choose to give him. Did any one ever hear of the quarterly board business being private? Mr Rogers made them a promise ; we will see if he will earry it out as well as the other promises he has made. A friend asked, the other day, where Mr Rogers was, and another said, "he is away on his quarterly visit, as usual." Those who are backing him up tell some strange things, and when asked about them they either will not or cannot tell their author. Hoping that the time will come when peace will be restored in the place, I am, yours truly, R. ADAMS. Dr. Washington's Visits. OWDEB Absolutely Pure. This powder never varies.

ROYAL BAK,sa PoWDBR 1'0 , 100 War Street, New York. A FEW FACTS TO BE 1E)li:MIIERE:1. 1. Dr Washington is a native of Ca- nada. He is a regular graduate, passing his examinations in Toronto, in 1872, with honors, obtaining the diplomas of M. D., L. C. P. S. 0., etc. 3. Since 1880 he has been devoting his whole time to diseases of the head, throat and lungs, having visited Boston and New York,- taking a special Polo- clynic course of diseases of the "Air Passages," including Catarrh, Catarrhal . Deafness, Asthma, Chronic Bronchitis, Consumption, loss of voice, enlarged tonsils, removing Polipii, or growths of the nose, etc., etc, 4. He is the only Throat and Lung surgeon in Canada devoting his whole time to these special diseases. 5. His "new method" of. conveying directly to the seat of disease by inhala- tion has proved the demonstration of the fact of its grand superiority over the old and obsolete system of dosing the stomach. G The new testimonials he gives of the most wonderful and almost marvel- ous recoveries of some of the mast pro minent people in Canada is a guarantee of the merits of his treatment. 7. He gives the name in fall, post office address, (not merely the initials, which might refer to any Tom, Dick or Harry,) . and invites any who ars lute• rested to write for full particulars. 8. He resides in Toronto. 9. HO makes monthly visits, examin• ing and treating all patients personally, and is, therefore, wholly responsible. His next visit to Clinton will be June 13, from 2:25 sharp till 6 pan. 10. This is the best season to test all diseases of the "Air Passages." 11. Procrastination is often the cause of patients landing beyond hope. 12,—Catarrh, in 90 cases in 100 leads to consufnption. 13. Remember the dates, and if you desire to see Dr Washington you must come during the hours he advertises. 14, Consultation free. _ - HARRIED PERRIE—IiNECHTEL.—At the residence of the bride's parents, Brussels, on the 1611, inst., by the Rev John Ross, 11,A., assisted by itev S.
