HURON SIGNAL.
THURSDAY. APRIL 29, iS'1J.
THE CANADA COMPANY.
The postage impost nuisance of which
a writer in the Signal with great justice
complained, still continues at the Coln-
pa0y's Ageuey (r) here, notwillutaodmg the •
Let it be remembered &c." advertisement
of the Agent which lately appeared in this
Journal, and which asserted that the busi-
ness of the settlers would be transacted al
the Company's ollice at Toronto through
the a Agents of the Bank of Upper Canada
both at Goderich and Stratford, witlwut
charges to the sail settlers." \\-e really
du 1101 uuIerstand this ioconei,teney. But
041ful0duct. thing we do know that it is a disgrace -
We bare heard miry cuupleiu of their
hating to pay ,his postage tax, we bare
fail it -sory receMfyorrrrelees, and we Min
heard of one who bring well acquainted the
managwent of the Company's affairs refus-
ed to pay it when denan1cd, eonsiderin,
it uncalled for by the company and who wast
permitted to escape on accoul.t of bo sa,te-
rior information on His head. In detail
the amouat thus collected is small it is
true, but the aggregate is large, mod mor
be regarded by the poor settler of Ilion,
as an unjust tax tbrowu upon him by the
Comi,any m• Sts Agents for the most sclew!'
purposes. We frequently hear the remark
"What is the use of the Goderich Agency?"
\\-hat n•e indeed 1 it remits money ao
any Bank or looney letter woulJdo,,toToo!
mato. It seeds the applications of settler,
to the Office at Torunto after they hate
tramped with them from the utmost comities(
of the Tract, and then charges those settler
for the postne of the sante. All which
trouble and time might he saved and the
business as well executed by the settlers
themselves at the Post Office nest their
homes, where a" counterpart" or a transfer
could be as eorrectly .executed and the •
money forwarded and the.postage paid, a+l
before. We have faded to least whether i
any other facilities are afforded 'to the set- f
tlers by this agencyalthti we have anti-
ousts- enquired. Our lrier.ds equally anzi-
ous with ourselves, hare also been unser-.

*debited reflected the lreutest credit not

whole Counties. A rapid and valuable un -

The Judges were Messrs. Longworth, Ai -

The first premium was awarded to Mr II.
Taylor, McKillop, for his horse Messenger,
5 years old, which is certainly a very fine
animal. The second premium was given
to Mr. Stonehouse of Goderich Township,
for hi* young horse which we believe will be
only 3 years old this Spring. Mr. J. Rye's
grey burse Young Clyde, 4 years old, is al-

(jt itatc, 1 2t April, 1853.
T thjnk I tncuhoned in my last that Mr.
Dison the prose. t member for Loedoe; had
moved for ell papers and correspondence
connected with hio dischargre from the ma-
gistracy together with the names of the
petitioners for that discharge. The mo-
tion created quite a ricb.xene in the 'louse.
Ale. Dixon had esideutally been preparing
'iiansell for some time back to sustain his
position, and I really believe that he must
have read nuncios catechism all through,
(the bright countenance of the gentleman
lorbid's my supposing he wo,,ld be guilty
of diving into a larger work,) and as to
Blackstone, the " immortal commendation
wboee 011inluns the gentleman opposite would
not dare to controvert, why 1 ata decidedly
of opinion that some wag of a lawyer, ansr
0115 to play off a pun upon the old man,
must have selected the questions, for more
i,revident extracts I hare 000cr hail the
honor to listen to. For instance he very
gravely produced a quotation proving that
life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness,
are the inalienable rights of man. Now 1
do not for a moment suppose that any one
will be found possessing the hardihood to
deny this; but if it be true Ihat liberty is
one 01 the Inalienable rights of man, then
would a government be highly culpable in
keeping to office, a violent political partizan,
whose d6eisi00S would be regulated, not by
any regard to last or equity, but solely by
party bias and prrdeliction5. Mr. Blocks
answered the gentleman very briefly, bit at
sufficient 10140 10 demolu.h the miserable
clap -trap, whish according to the reporters
was frequently cheered during it* delivery.
Ile %ai.l that the strangers listening to the
110rt0urable gentleman's speech would have
imagined that he was the most abused mite
to the c'lnotry, that he had been reduced to
,the Reade of a felon, and then the
common rights of every criminal denied
him- But what were the facts of the case
Asa time of great political excitement,
w the country was disturbed from one
end to the other, and appeals were made to
the worst passions in the outran breast, by
men belonging to that party, of which Mr.
Dison w proud of being • member; a peti-
tion had been received by the government
preferring certain general and eery speci-
fic chargee against the magisterial conduct,
of the present member for London, and
praying for hes dinned from the commis-
sion of the Peace. The charges were duly
fee -warded to Mr. Dison with the request
that he would answer them, but instead of
doing so, the honourable gentleman flew in-
to a paasion, refused to answer any charges
or indeedeven to deny them at first and im-
periously demanded the names of bis ac-
cusers. These the (Government did not see
fit to give, and as they could get no satis-
faetinn from Mr. Neon, their limy lateen -
tire was to dismiss him. Mr. It ick, en-

the rumour was unfounded. Mr. Brown
strenuously supported the government
scheme. stating very correctly that it would
be a preach of faith, to pans them, and
would destroy confidence in the govern-
