There were present Warden Cox, Commis. stoners, Mooney, Hyslop, Torrance, County Clerk Lane, Inspector Coats and Manager French. There were four tenders for meat, that of Ford & Murphy being accepted ; two for bread, A. Kings being accept- ed , e for general groceries, J. W. Irwins accepted. The Com- mittee decided to erect a pig pen and poultry house, for which the 'County i Clerk will receive tenders (after i plans and specifications are prepared) up to March 25th. Inspector Coats was authorized to secure livery for tie of any clergyman to attend the House o'Eefage on Stab tths to hold religious services. The Inspector is to report the cost of a refrigerator and if satisfactory one will be pur- chased. Several ;minor matters were left for the Inspector and Manager to deal with. It was decided to plant one and a half acres of orchard, and to graft the, old trees where necessary; the varieties and cost to be submitted at next meeting. The committee recommended that so far as practicable the supply of dry - goods for use of the House of Refuge be seettred from a wholesale house direct.

Tho:. tran t,tttzenship is a masterly ore and is doing much towards arousing electors to the solemn re)peneibility resting •up)n thorn. Ii : very sib aifi cantly asks the question : "Would they think it right to accept revenue from the liquor traffic for the church treasury?" If not, way should their consciences be sot lead in the sleep of avarice that they would accept revenue from the sale of intoxicants for the support of the Government? Government is one of the ordin- ances of (;rod, hence it is as vitally wrong to ttceept revenue trona the Neer traffic for Government par - pews. a wog being pronounced against it—as for the money changers to sit In the temple. Mr. Taylor has a definition of tem- perance that can be held in theory and handled in practice : "Temper- ance is the moderate use of things good in their essential nature, and total abstinence from all things bad in their essential composition." Ile declares and established scientifically that liquor is in no sense a food: ha only inlaence is to unduly s.imalate or cause a commotion, and paralyze or stapify the activity of the nervotu system. Liquor is classed as one of the six worst p )icons in materia medica. It attacks the brain,. the homy of the moral and mental power,. He tells us that experimenti show that liquor in small doses excites the imagination, memory and power of associations of ideas, and it depresses judgment, conscience and will. These results throw the entire man out of balance, as is plainly shown by the charts that he uses in his scientific lectu"e. The higher fecal - ties • are deadened and the lower ones stimulated. Some judges declare 'he says, that 'nine -tenths of crime is due to liquor. Rendering dominant the animal impulses, it hardens the conscience and drives men from the Gospel. It is not a coincidence that the intemperate man is a moral weakling and social wreck, but a physiological and scientific copse• quence, as shown by the lecturer. Truly the relation- between liquor and'soc[ai Viee;i3 such as to awaken the must indifferent. Temperance should htiveas aides onr •legislators teachers,' ministers and every onewho 'has to de with inoulding _ the character.

Many places from which we have heard hat e expressed themselves ae abundantly satisfied with the lectures, saying that they were immeasurably above the average address of the class. Mrs. Thornley, Provineial presi- dent, writers; "His lecture. were most educative and the best along that line that they have. ever heard in London. Every city, town and village in Ontario ought to !rear them." Mr. Taylor will be in \Vingham on March 11 and 15. Wilson was driving across the iron sapension bridge over the river his horse chocked turd fell agntnst the wooden railing, which gave way. Iiad it not been that the harness broke, the cutter with four occupants would have been dashed down on the ice, fifteen feet below. .As it was the home went over, but in the f:til one foot caught in the iron work and the peer animal bung thus sus- pended for about twenty minutes. Finally with heavy pries his f.tot MIS let loose and he fell on the ice below. The horse was badly cut and bruised, bat was able to walk !tome. Bishop Baldwins' Plea. His Lordship Bishop Baldwin has issued the following plea to the members of iluron Diocese: —To .the members of the Diocese of Huron, greeting: My object in appealing to you on the present occasion is to arouse your sympathy towardsfamine and -plague stricken India. The de- tails of its sufferings are too familiar to your minds to need any rehearsal on my part. It will therefore be suffi- cient, if I seek to impress upon your minds the solemn fact that not only are thousands dying in Bombay, the city immediately affected, but throughout the whole Presidency, misery and want, such as baffle description, seem everywhere to reign. An appeal for their relief has now been made to all parts of the Empire, and I am confident that to no land beneath Her Majesty's sway will this appeal come where it will meet with a more hearty and vigor- ous response than in this Dominion of Canada. Blessed as we have been by the good hand of God, with rich and various plenty, we have the means, as assuredly as we have the will, to afford thein timely and much needed relief.
