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, will not get one rung higher . n the Tit day of this montes.

This was due to the fact that Mr. O'I)onohue objected to abide by the rulcs whii b 1nd governed all pre- vious meetings during the campaign. Col.

Mr. Glad - storm, who has done more to redress the unjust grievances of Ireland their any other atstesuun of England, and would 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.
