ST. HELENS.
The political meeting held at tit. Hel-
ens on Thursday night of last week was
well attended. Mr. James Gaunt was
called to tbu chair, and ably discharged
the duties of chairman dunng the even-
ing. Col. Ross, M. PP. , being called up-
on, gave an account of hu stewardship
daring his tern of office. He discussed
fully, the stream's hill, the license ques-
tion and the boundary award, and dos-
ed a brilliant speech of about two hours
in length by asking the electors to stand
Arm, shoulder to shoulder, for Provin-
cial Rights.
Mr. Watson, of Wingham, replied in
behalf of Mr. Johnston ie a lengthy and
blustering speech which drew furth the
smiles of the good natured audience, but
as the sn uments were few, though the
words wore lutg and loud, his speech
had very little weight with the audience
Ia fact he seemed to think so himself, hsr
at the close of the meeting he asked a
by-stander, "Were there ar-y Gmsaiva-
ti•es here to -night ?"
Mr. Rosa briefly replied, sum
up the arguments adduced, after which
the meeting closed with the usual
cheers.
The absenos of Mr. Johnston, at these
meetings, is universally commented on.
Many of hu friends in this vicinity say
that he should appear before thein amt
publicly state his policy, and let then)
see the man for whom they are being
canvassed t', vote.
LOCIIALSH.
Owing to the impassable state of the
roads rendered by the heavy thaw dur-
ing the day, no meeting was held on Fri-
day evening last at Grant's ech•,ol house.
Col. Roes, however. came all the way
from St. Helens in order to fill his ap
pointment, nuthwithstanding that the
elements were so decidedly against him,
a fact that proves that the gentleman
who has so ably represented West Ilu-
Ion during the past eight years, and who
will represent it for some time to come,
is "grit" physically as well as politically.
We are four to one here in favor of Ross
and good guvern.ment ; and the amt•i
tiousFreddy Aho got his foot nn the bot-
tom rung of the ladder some time ago,
and vowed that he would reach the top
in spite of two very noted personages,

day of this montes.

Tho meeting held by Col. Rosa ot.
Saturday was largely attendetl. ,\Ir.
McPhee was calls,' to the chair, and
duly honored the office. Col. Rosa
epeitied the meeting in an able speech of
an hour ind a half, Was replied to by
Mr. Johnston, and then closed in a
half hour's speech. Front start to filial.
Russ kept the attention of the audience.
The meeting was almost unanimous for
him.

A meeting was held in Kingsbridge on Tons -

the speakers took the platform. This was due
to the fact that Mr. O'I)onohue objected to
abide by the rulcs whii b 1nd governed all pre-

His Grace Arbhbishop Lynch has ad-
dressed the following letter to the press:
The condition of Ireland it still must

tiun, of th.,usautis of poor iu.peverlahe t

in the depths of wt'...•r, brings a blush

reason to enter a prosecution against the
bail arcus authors of such cruelties ; and
mill they continue in the nineteenth cen-
tury, and are even partially condoned by

unjust grievances of Ireland their any

do more if his countrymen would sustain
him, proposes, as a partial remedy, to
help the poor people in over crowded
districts to emigrate. We are quite sure
that s vat number of poor will avail
themselves of this offer, and will come to
this c.'untry. It is large enough for all,
and laborers and mechanics are required
in many parts of it. Our geed Govern-

large tracts of his dominions pnveased
by great princes and lords, were only
used for the breeding and raisieg of cat-
tle, which were sold for the exclusive
benefit of their owners, .made a law re-
quiring a certain number of acres to be
cultivated in proportion. to that which
was left uncultivated. His Holiness
thus helped commerce, procured food for
the inhabitants, and employment for a
greater number ..f men, and enhanced
the value of his state, and did no injury
to the princes. This should be done in
Ireland. Pope Leo XII. found attoth-
