11114QATIT
WM tendered Sir John Macdonald, by a
few of his followers inOttawa,ou Thurs.
day last, which, according to the most
sothentie accounts, was a poor affair.
We thiok the less ado the Tories make
over Sir John et present. the better for
their own reputation after the diagraos
into which he has fallen.
ORGANI LE.
The Tories are organizing all over the
reentry and have openly declared their
intention to introduce politico into
municipal *Dakota where they have any
chance of success. They will appoint
mualcipel officers of their own stripe,
and then will follow mnnipuiation of
aeseesment rolls and other devices to
pin strength to their party. Reformers
must sestet' them closely and must also
organize, for the enemy is unscrupulons
and may in some plena steal • march
unless we also have a proper and effici.
ent orgunzation to counteract their
movements. The narrow escape we had
from defeat at the late election in this
Riding shows the neoesaity of proper
organization, and we trust the lesson
then learned will nut pass enheeded.

•••••••••••••••
Political Affairs •
There is complete lull in polities]
affairs. The new government not hav-
ing yet annoenced its policy there is
nothing to criticise, but in the absence
of sneh,the scandal organs have resorted
to personal abuse of Mr. Mackenzie and
his followers, in order to keep their
hands in. Their anathemas are specially
directed against those who formerly
supported SirJohn A. Macdonald, but
declined to be dragged threegh the mire
any longer and declared their intention
to vote against him on the Pacific Rail-
way matter. That such men as Donald
A. Smith of Manitoba were actuated by
purely conscientious motive& no one who
knows them will attempt to deny. It
bias been made public that after Mr.
Smith announced his intention in the
House, Sir John attacked him in the
lobby, shook his fist in his face and used
language so foul that his colleague Dr.
Tupper was obliged to interfere. An
apology was afterwarde tendered but so
late that its effect was lost. We hare
heard of John A. acting the part of •
rowdy before. when in his cups, but this
lest act of his, towards a most respecta-
ble and upright gentleman, who Cita.%
senior in years aa he is far before him in
g,entlemanly conduct and feeling, appears
to have c&pped the climax. David Glom
too comes in for a large share of abuse.
Whatever our opinion of him as a poli-
tician rnay be, we wish there were more
David Glasses in the country so far as
inderndence is concerned.
THE WRITS
tor the seats vacated by the new Minis-
ters have been issued and the elect ions will
be held the end of this month and the
begming of next. The Conservativea
are buckling ea their armour and intend
to give Mr. Cartwright a vigormis oppo-
sition in Lennox. Mr. Hooper, treas-
urer of the county, has been brought out
as their candidate. 11r. Caztwright
was elected in 1872 by one of the largest
majorities in Ontario aud we do not
suppose it will be any less in 11173.
bpposition is also threatened to some of
the lower province members, but we
have no reason to fear that any of the
governmett will be defeated.
VIE APPOINTMENT
uf Messrs. Crawford and Tilley as Lieu-
tenant Governors of Ontario and New
Brunswick have been rosette:I and the
former has entered upon the dischaege
of his duties. Hon. Hugh McDonald
has also been gazetted Chief Justice of
Nova Sootia. These are the only ap-
pointments made by the late goyernment
On ;Se eve of its retirement Welch have

UPPIE. CANADA TRACT AND BOOK
Soarre.-The Agent of the above soci-
ety, Rey. Mr. Rescreen, visited oar
town this week and efter preaching on
Sabbath. held a meeting in St Andrew's
Church on Monday night in further-
ance of his object. The audience was
small, but enjoyed the clear and able
addree" of the Agent. Several of the
resident ministers having spoken,a reso-
lution was passed commending Mr.
Reitman to the confidence and liberality
of the Christien community.
Wz do not set ourselves up as being
b4ter than our neighbors, but we deem
it bet right -to state that in our contem-
porary's report of the Assizes in its last
issue, no Tees than eight ewes were
wrongly reported, the error being of
such a character as to mislead. We
would not natice the matter were it not
that the said journal is in the habit of
carping at us, and we wonld just reoom-
mend it to remove the beam from its
own eye before it attenipts to extract
the mote frorn ours. We give to -day a
full and correct report of the cases which
came before the Assizes.
aepeat d Dengnicat Penitentiariu
for :873.
This report Ism come to hand and on
glancing er its contents we notice the
pleading fact that the number of con-
victs in tbe Ontario Peniteutituy at
Kingston is steadily decreasing. The
following are the numbers confined there
on the 3ast December in the following
years
1868 .833
1869 713
1870 686
628
1871 .
1872 - 549
This dimingtion is attributed to the
abundance of emelt and also to the bene-
ficial influence of reformatories. The be
haviourof the convicts is also improving,
corporal punishment having rarely to be
resorted to. Rewards for good conduct
and for steady industry in the form of
remission of sentence or payment for
extra time is found to have a good ef-
tect. The prisoners are oleo allowed to
have a light outride their Cells tO read
by during the long evenings, a privilege
which is greatly prized. The value of
the work done by convicts at Knighton
during the year was $74,717.49. In
consequence of the increase in • wages
throughout the country, 50 cents • day
is new obtained for convict labouria-
stead of 35 centa and 40 cents as for-
merly.
A penitentiary has been established
for the Province of Quebec so that
henceforth only Ontario lonyicts will he
sent to Kingston. There is a similar
institution for flew Brrinawick at Ste
John and fur Nova Scotia at Halifax.
The number of convicts confined in
all the penitentiaries of the Dominion
on the 31st December J872 was 670,
not a very large portion of our popula-
tion. The maintenance of these costa
the country a large sum every year, but
we cannot see why they should nut be
made self supporting as the State
prisons are across the lines. The ex-
hibit made by the report is on the whole
very favourable, showing that there is
eomparetively little crime among us.
Net a Coalition;
The scandal organs persist in the
suet -Eon that Mr. Mackenzie's Govern-
ment is a Coalition. The statement is
not correct. Tkere are only two morn -
bees of the cabinet, Messrs. Cartwright
and Scott, who ware ever anything but
professed Liberals. The former re-
nounced all allegiance to Sir John A.
Macdonald four years ago and was since
elected in opposition to his Governinent,
the -latter gave in his adhesion to Mr.
Blake in 1871 and was immediately go
wards elected ,bracclamation. If they
are Tories no man can change his poli-
tical name or creed; if they are not To-
ries there is no Coalition.

OCTIlaGs.-On Tuesday the 3r4 inst,
and every day and. nieht aince I thee,
intense excitetneut has prevailed in
Wroxeter. This feeliog hal been Ovum]
by a violition of this person of a little
girl aged about eight year' ell, datighter
of a respectable Howick far•ner teamed
Birch, residing near Wroxeter. gire
the facts just as we • heard theta On
Monday ekentne, 3rd inst., the parents
of the little ene wore ahsent from home.
There were only two left in the house
the victim and another little gtri. Duro
nig the evening a wretch named .1aines
Thompsen visited the ammo, arid asked
where her parents were. The child; gave
him the necessary infiermition, anill then
Thompson tol,l her that he believed.
the ,eattle were not safely tied up. The
girl proceeded to the stable to sae for
herself, and while there the se-
cured her and committed a shecking
violation of her person..., The poor crea-
ture was horribly onfteged, all has
since been in a deplorable .con ition.
Thompson is a- tall, powerfully, built
Sootchman of apparently fifty-filve or
sixty years of age. Ho has been eb«ining
work in this section as a generel la-
bourer, It is reported that.he had to
leave the old countary for it similar
crime. the vietim in that case being but
thirteen years of age. Meanwhile, the
greatest excitement prevails in Wroxeter
and vicinity, as the fellow is still at
large. Parties are off looking for him,
ame our opinion is that should the rae-
cal be caught a short shrift and a long
rope will be giveo him by the incensed
vitt/keen of Wrozeter, and the farmers
of the surrounding county.-Poat
