L. DEC. 18. 1863. T. DAVID'S WARD. Tea starrtreo ON TUltaLlAY !Tient°. On Tuesday evening - last • very large awned gathered at the Huron Hotel to bier speeches on that all -absorbing topic- :httwForalty. The hall was filled to Besides electors and nonsleetors of the town, we noticed that nearly all the members di the County Oesscil were present. No doubt our Worthy reeves were anxious to hear a little " ally " eloquence, and, we are happy to say, they were not diaappointed. Mayor Cameron was milled to the chair. He explained that the meeting had been ealled for the purpose of giving one of the candidates an opportunity of defining his position, and rebuttiag charges brought against him. He was sorry to see only mu of the candidates present, as, in his opinion, there was nothing better calculat- ed to elicit truth than to hear both sides of a question. Mr. Watson had lived in Godevieh for twenty yeas, led, as they were aware, had acquired a snail' kind of sputatiou in the town. Mr. Dedor had not been here so long, but his residence in the place was long enough to enable the skates to judge of his knees for the posi- tion to which he aspired, and it war for them to say whether his course had been each as to entitle bitn to be Mayor of Gederich. (Applause.) Withost, ia so easery words, saying whieh was the best sisa, he would state that he had assiated with Mr. Deals for five years in varies capacities, and he had always seen him sines a desire to "deluxe the interests of the town of Goderich. ( Applanse.) After Miring hun it was for the electors to say whether they would give him their suf- frages. Mr. Dods then came forward and de- livered a lengthy address, which we do not consider it pummel to give in full, at it weir ettbstantially the same es that of Thursday evening hat, published in our columns. We will only say that, on this occasion, the speech was listens to atten- tively, and that it evidently produced a favorable impression. When Mr. Dells had resutued his seat there were loud cries of '' ‘Vataon ! Me- mos 1 Wawa 1" Mr. Watson, it appeared, was not pres- ent. Mr. Crabb was then called for and ea me forward. He said Mr. Dells had defivered what he would call a good moral sennoo. He should have taken for his text • pasaage in the Old Teetameut- [oonfusion and cries of " shame,"1-the text be alluded to was " Render ueto Cesar the things that are Caesar's due.' [A voice, " that's in the New Testament," great laughter.] He expected Mr. Dedor would have Itzpithied kis conduct during the past year, bat thatead of thatthey had lietened to a good moral sermon. But., said the speak- er, gentlemen, you don't want to hear moral sermons when you wish to know how much taxes you will have to pay next year. Neither sermons nor morality will advance the isterests of this town (1) [Hires and great confueion.] I defy any man to say, "Crabb, you are sn immoral namsa 1" [Continued hissing.] Sermons ought to be kept in their place and politics In their plain. [Couftuion.] The chairman interfered mid ordered those who were making a disturbance to keep quiet. After the tumult had sub- sided Mr. Crabb proceeded. I will just allude to the 75ot. a day charge against Mr. Defier. I am rodeos the man who beard the statement from Mr. Detior.s own lips.

When asked by parties betow as to .the standing of mer- chants in town, he would be iu • position to injure them. (Some one in the crowd, " bah !") Now, gentlemen, I can tell you a little thing. It is well known that (lode - rich is 'the oldest settled phoe in the coun- ty, and if there was any indulgence shown it should be to Goderich-(hear, hear, )- and no other place ahotild have advantages over it. For some reaeon Got:tench has not reaped the advantagoi it ought to have done. There is one little ease iu my memory. I allude to the small town of Wingham. Prior to Mr. Deets assuming the office of deputy reeve, there was a move to build a bridge over the Maitland, but, through die influence of Mr. Wallace, who was then is the council, Ii was kept back. Mr Dells voted the supplies for that bridge over Wingbam-(inerriment) -over the Maitland at Wingliuu, I moan, and ocw the traffic goes to Clinton instead of coming to Goderich. (Applause.) I have lost myself throsgh that operation to the extent of $2,000 if I speak the truth. (Roars oflaugtiler.) I believe my t.r-r- (ben) Mr. Wens is just an moral a man as Mr. Detlor and has a stronger claim upon the electors. (Exeunt Mr. Cribb amidst immense cheering from the opposition benches, and roars of laughter from the "ministerial " side, as he would call the Detlor men.) Mr. Gibbons said this was the emend Ward Meeting he had attended, and he was sorry not to see the opposition candi- date on either occasion, Were he running he would feel that they had %right to hear au expressis of his views dinch an occa- sion. He wondered that Mr. Watson, being a Seotchman like himself, did not hoist the thistle and come out.. Ile thought such remarks u Mr. Crabb's sadly out of place. Ile (Mr. G.) would speak of the municipal eoaduct of both men. He had sat in the Couped with both for about the same length of time, and he had decided to take the one who had done his ditty. - (Applause.) Ile had sat with Mr. Detlor at both boards, and had never known him to !serve from his duty. (Cheers.) With regaid to Mr. Crabb's remarks about the Wingharn bridge, that gentleman might not be aware that the gravel road to Clin_ ton wee built before the bridge was requir- ed at all. And besides, he could not ap- preeiate‘Mr. Crabb's logic. Ilere were six or sets hundred people who wished to cross the river, and for all be (Mr. Crabb) eared they might swim it, if they did not prefer coming to Goderich.- (Cheers.) Mr. Detlor, as he before re- marked, had been faithful in the disharge of his iintiee, while Mr. Watson, during the last two years he was in the Council, left them io the lurch. He did not blame Mr. Watson for attending to his private buinems, but he considered that the fact he had mentioned militated against him in the prevent contest. He, (Mr. G.) had given his reuse for supporting Mr. Het- lor, and he wan prepared to stick to him to the and, (Cheers and A plans. ) p\ii Mr. Wm.
