The doctor stayed 1n the etinstit ency and we have every reason believe the methods of who he boasted were resorted to. T oo0etituency Awartucll with boot ler. of all grades from the lowest heeler to Cabinet Ministers : A dead set was made on the .•onatituency, and West Huron was stolen by a suIN11 majority. How the thing w acs done was for some time a mystery, but it now turns out that tbe scheme upon which the riding was carried is rimply an Ameri- can style of electoral thieving which Ism been in vogue on the other site of the line sinew the Canadian (or, as the Americans call it,-lustralienl style of heillot has become law in misty of tbe States Over there. The plan is embodied in a proposi Don to prepare extra duplicates of the official ballot and deliver there fat similes. properly marked to secure th elertlon of Conservative caudulates, to the purchased Atwater« upon whose cor- ruption the Conservative managers re- ly for %uccese. The recipient of such a ballot is expected 10 .enter the votin booth with the spurious ticket in his pocket, accept fronr the distributor a regular ballot. which he will pretend to prepare and east..depositing in the box, however, the fake ticket with which he was provident before entering the wand man.

Mr. BLAIII had no axe to grind in accepting the position of petitioner, and in this re- gard gaud differed somewhat fntire the Tory petitioner last year, who accepted the position in the hope of making some fifty or sixty dollars out of the pub- lication ubiication of the necessary advertising in connection with the care. In this hope he Wm baulked, however, owing to the advertising being transferred to a Clinton journal, but his intention G. get some grease" out of the affair 1e.[ him to act as petitioner. Such being the car no far as he was con- cerned, it it not to be wondered at that he is of opinion that others are " on the make." Hen', his uncalled- for reference to Messrs. G.ARROW d; Plwu lIOOT.

" it is safe to say," continues The tar, " that about the only persona ho will profit by the present action re the legal gentlemen and one or wo heelers who pose as leaden of the party in this section." That is candid not is the opinion of an expert- the an who is the standing Tory pita. boner in West Huron.

Yet such he appears to be, as a recent communication to The Cana digin Baptist proves We give his contribution in full, not for the pur- pose of starting a controversy on the subject, but to let the fnends of Mr. DAVIN in this section get a view of this side of his tuany-sidedness Mr. Nichola' Flood Davin, M.1'., in the course of a conversation a few weeks since, imcieleetally referred to the reply which he had at one time made to the request of a former editor of The Baptist for his opinion on the meaning and use of the o;reek word baptize, in The New Testament. Knowing that our readers would be atorested e• learning the view of • gentleman of superior intellectual ability and of wide scholarship, not himself a Baptist, we asked Mr. Dann to kindly repeat his rept in writing, with permission to publish. Following is les an ewer to our request ., 1 forget the exact words 1 wed in MT reply to the question by the editor of The Canadian Baptist. It was some years ago. But as my atm remains unchanged, it will he as well to give the answer 1 would Sake if the request were repeated. 1 hold, and have held ever aims 1 was in • position to have an opinion on the subject, that both as regards the form of baptism mod those who should be the subjects there of, the Baptista have the best of the argu- ment. As to the more important questioo of the two, the subjects the nature of the case, the order of the won}s •" believe and be baptised,'. the apostolic practice and, moat probably, that of the early church, are on the site of those who hold that Christian baptism presupposes conscious faith u Christ. The ancient form nutlive.l the de- parture from the ancient rule. Aa to the subjects of baptism and the meaning of bap- tize), the well Known practice 0t the early centuries and the foot. in old European cathedrals make out a case difficult to over- turn, not to speak of St. Paul's argument in the 6th chapter of Romans, the beauty sed appropriateness of which is lost unless you bear in mind that the may form of bap tam known to St. Paul was tmettetssioo. The literal and metaphorical use of the word baptise in Greek writers gives no counten- ance whatever to sprinkling.

The proper transla- tion would he, " John, the Dipper." The meaning of several passages in the New Testament is obscured by the timidity of the translators in sealing with baptize and its derivatives. 1. the I lth verse of the 3rd chapter of Matthew we read, " I in- deed baptize you with water unto repeat, mos." But the Greek is, " 1 indeed dip you in water into repentance." In the 5tn verse we read that they flecked out to him and wen '.baptized," "confessing their Una" The memos was not an end to be reached through baptism ; they were repent- ant before they were baptised. If baptism bot to repentance, John would sever hare addressed the Pharisees ami Saddam*" as in ea 7-10.
