It is understood that on the retire- Inent of Mr. H. E. Johnston from the position of clerk -treasurer of the town on the lat of March, Mr. Wm. Campbell AB to be elected as his successor iD office. Already a scramble is being made by the office seekers for the position of collector of customs at this port, which is likely to become vacant by the retirement of the present incumbent, Mr. D. Doty, un an annuity earned by long years of active work in the civil service. Mr. Campbell, to such an event,having worked earnestly -often to his own detriment --in the in- terest of his party, considers he has a claim to the kindly consideration of the Government for which he lots for so many years been willing to spend and be spent, and would not be averse to holding the collectorship on Mr. Doty's retirement. Mr. George B. Johnston, we understand, Is also a candidate for the office, and every Tdry out of a job, or nut in a good billet, ie turning his oyes longingly to the corner of West street and the Square -the custom's office -as a Ma- hommedan would look toward Mecca. Mr. Campbell is a worker, and at present has a good deal of time on his hands to press his claims. Unless he is shelved in some way, he is likely to prove a for- midable rival to Mr. Johnston in the race for office, and there is only one way out of the difficulty : Mr. Campbell must get a berth ! The position of clerk -treasurer is held by Mr. Harry E. Johnstou, a brother of Mr. George 13. Johnston, at a salary about half of that accruing to the collectorship, and what could be nicer nr more fraternal than that. Mr. Harry E. Johnston should step down aid out so that Mr. Campbell would not be a barrier in the way of Mr. George 11. Johnston in the race for the collectorsliit. --always made and provided that Mr. Doty, who is still in the enjoy- ment of trental end physical vigor, shoulu see fit to take advantage of the superannuation which his lung and faithful service in the public employ en- titles him to, and provided also that Mr. Richard Radcliffe, the deputy at present, is not promoted to the position of collec- tor, as he undoubtedly deserves to be. It is quite true that the emoluments of the clerk -treasurer are not to he compared with those of the collector, but a half loaf is better than no bread to a Tory out of office ; and it is probable Mr. Campbell will look rat matters in that, light, and accept of the bird in the 'hand rather than run tho risk of waiting for the two in the bush. We want our readers, on both sides of polities, to watch this grab game care- fully. The gamesters are endeavoring each to get the start on the other, for each candidate is anxious that he and not the other shall feed most largely at the public crib. They all claim to have fought and bled for tbo " Party," and and now each applicant wants a pan- e'• for hie wounds and bruises, in the .tape of • fat billet for his " disinter - sated sed patriotic" political see -noes in the post Me. Maaau•K, M P., for Leeds, may be a very fine nun, but like many tether very tine nen he doesn't like a rule which he lays down to work both ways. In the course of a recent debate in the Legislature he grew virtuously indignant over the fact that, anterior to the June election, the Globe had published a ce:- respondence drawing attention to the unhappy prevalence of the .octal evil in some id the large manufacturing centres, land Mr. Merrick grew almost apoplectic while dilating en the great wrong that had been done the factory gills of Cann The aeressa .UL onthe said publication. fps also 'The difficulty anent the use of streams contended that the Reform Darty shoeld in the floating of timber dates farther be held ..countable for the utter•noes of back than most people are aware of. the (Aube in eve.y instance.

Only a jeke 1 Well the 7,000 delegates who were slandered, and their friends throughout Ontario, will show how they 'appreciate the joke when, they come to mark their ballots on election day. In this particular instance, Mr. Merrick evi- dently does not believe in the homely aphorism, " What is sauce for the goose, is sauce fur the gander." the Council of the County of rronteuac. At that time the people who were set- tling on lands and largely depending for income upon the sale of their wood,com- plained that they could not profitably get it down the Mississippi in conse- quence of the tolls which Mr. McLaren exacted. They did nut dispute that Mr. McLaren should receive a consideration for the benefit of (us slides and dams, but contended thst his charges were ex- A cessive, and such as forced them into Q conditioua the reverse of comfortable. der Some Lound that they suffered too many A. embarrassments to succeed ; they diapus- sold of their property and left the county. Q Mr. Playfair draw the attention of the bet Council to the manner in which the A Township was being depopulated and con urged the memorializing of Parliament Q for a law which would afford the people ala a measure of protection. It was not had, A however, until the McLaren -Caldwell trry Chancery case demonstrated the nece.si- is ty of it. The Stret.ms Bill has been passed twice and twice disallowed. It is being again passed by the Ontario Legis- lature, and it is one of the things the people will be asked to pronounce upon to the Local eleotion. It is based upon justiee end aims at dealing fairly between t .. and man. Caldwell andMcLaren are nut only affected by it ; it protects the rights of scores on other rivers besides the Miasi•stppi. The local history we have cited will strengthen the candida- ture of the man, who, if elected. will cote for the Streams Bill a hundred times, if necessary.--[Kintatun Whig. License Question.
