Nom DiscouNTEn, and MONEY TO LOAN ON NOTES and MORTGAGES. glo Tata Zhao. THURSDAY, DECEMBER 22nd 1882. It did seem of late that the council of this year would be returned ;ley acola- nation, but daily the indications of opposition are becoming more visible, It is now almost certain that the deputy Reeve, Mr. H. Spackman will have op- position in the person of Mr. W. G - Bissett; whilefor councillors several new men are spoken of, among those more prominently mentioned being R, S. Lang, D. Mill, L, EL Dickson, Dr. Lutz and Itobt. Sanders. These are all good and strong men, and if they permit their names to come before the electorate, a keen contest is assured. The career of the present Council has not bean such as to merit an undisturb- ed lease of the several offices for another year. 0 Wait for the turn of the tide. There can be no question that the cause of temp erance is steadily progressing. Persistent agitation is producing its effect on public opinion and slowly bu t surely public c•piuion is making itself felt in the statute books. The m uni- oipal authorities at London, Ont., have determined to submit to the people a by- law prohibiting the sale of liquor on any day of the week after 7 p. in. St. Thomas intends to move in the sante di- rection and in Bcivmanville it is pro- posed by some to make the price of shop licenses $1,01.10 each. There is a clearly defined tendency in the direction of greater restriction of the traffic, and if the temperance people will only be content to work towards the much to be desired, end of prohibition by a gradually increasing stringency of legislation their object will be gained much sooner than by an uncompromising demand for''pro- hibition or nothing." Ottawa Gossip. OTraw., Deo. 2L—Before Registrar Cas- sels in Chambers in the Supreme Court Mr. Beleourt, of Belaourt & McCracken, made a motion for dismissing the petition against the return of Mr. Choquette, M.P., for Montmagny, There was no evidenee for defence and therefore the petition was dismissed.

P., at the last general elections and was defeated, has been appointed by Hon. Mr. Mowat to take charge of certain municipal statistics in the Department of Agriculture, Toronto, Mr. Graham, who is now here, has wired Mr. Mowat his acceptance of the office. James D.

TORONTO Dec.21.—Hugh Phillips, driver of a one horse car on Parliament street,was knocked down and killed on Front street, jest west of the Queen's hotel, yesterday morning. The accident happened about 6.30 and as it was still dark. Philips got his horse from the stables near Frederick street and taking his stool, whip and lant- ern fsarted for his car. As far as can be learned he was walking beside the north- ern track when motor No. 270 from Yonge street came up behind him. The noise frightened his horse. The plunging animal shoved him in front of the car, and he was knocked down and rolled along by the guard beam for several yards. When the ear was stopped and the man rescued he was still alive, but unconscious. He never regained his senses. The bruised and bloody form was carried into the Queen's Hotel where a few minutes Iater Phillips breathed his last. Dr. Winnett was called but death got there first. Chapleau's Recommendations Ignored. OTTAWA, Dec. 21.—Lieutenant Governor Chaplean says that his physical condition may later necessitate a visit to France, but at present the indications are that he will pull through without a"trip to Paris. He will open the Quebec Legislature in person. I Mr. Chaplean repudiates the rumors of dissensions in the ranks of his party. The Government here, however, have thrown i into the waste paper basket some of the recommendations he made to the 'Privy T, Connell on the eye of his retirement from 3 the Cabinet. A Conservative convention will be ;held at St. Jerome on the 2nd inst. to choose a candidate for the vacancy in the House of Commons caused by Mr. �Chaplcau's appointment to the Lieuten, ant -Governorship. It is thought in Vienna that the fall ,of M. Rouvzer, the french Minister of ( l inane, may lead to a reapproachment t,etween Russia and Germany, as the ;•kussian government will probably be enable to obtain loans from France. 1{e,•p Minara',s L'nirn,et in Cie Potts s. A. FINANCES - General Booth's Management Approved by the Investigating Committee. Loernorr, Deo. 21.—The report of tins committees of which the Earl of Onslow is chairman, and which was appointed to in- vestigate the financial affairs of the Salva- tion Army as couducted by Gen. Booth, was made public yesterday. The report speaks favorably of Gen. Booth's enter- prise for the redemption of "Darkest Eng- land," but qualifies the general verdict of approval with eritioism to the effect that too much cash has been sunk in building operations at the beginning of the enter- prise. The report is a great victory for Gen. Booth, whose management of the Salvation Army finances is thus found to be correct by a committee of unimpeachable clearer, - ter and standing, and the .appointment of which was prompted in the first place by hostile critics of the Salvation Army. BUILDING SOCIETY FRAUDS, Additional Charges Against the Secretary and Director of the Liberator. Loa-nov, Dee. 21.-3. W. Hobbs, the London builder, and J. W.

Pxu,LDEr.1 xr., Dec. 21.—When the Inman liner City of New York leaves New York on February 23tla. her bow will point toward Southampton, the new European terminal of the Interna- tional Navigation Co.

On this date her sister ship the City of Paris will leave Southampton, thus formally opening the terminal and upon the latter's departure from this side the American flag will also probably grace her. This will be the cul- mination of plans which the International Naviguation Co. have been perfecting for many months and whieh will place it pre- eminently above all other trans-Atlantic lines. Tho Briggs Heresy Trial. NEW YonA, Dee. 21. ---The 140th day's session of the New York Presbytery on the trial of Dr. Briggs on charges of heresy was began promptly at 2 o'clock yesterday. The Rev. Dr. Jos. T. Lampe began the reply of the prosecution. Dr. Lampe said that with Christ the Scriptures were the ultimate and final authority. Dr. Briggstook adifferent stand. In so doing he called the Lord a liar. Dr. Briggs would destroy the infalli- bility of the Scriptures in his reasoning that they are not the direct words of God, but it was conclusive the Bible is not the product of reason or human wisdom. Dis- tort and dissect it as you may, its great truths still stand out as those spoken by God and those who deny or gainsay them are guilty of heresy. Dr. Lampe will con- clude his argument to -day.
