On Thursday hist, June 28th, being the anniversary of the Queen's Corona- tion, a brilliant assemblage of Imperial and Colouial delegates took place in the Senate Chamber, Ottawa, presided ever by His Excellency the Governor fenei•al. The object of this great gathering, drawn together on the in- vitation of the federal g•oyernmeut, was zo discuss more intimate relations be- tween •the different outlying portions of She British Empire, and specially to ar- range for laying' a submarine cable to extend from Vancouver, B, C., to Aus araiia. This of course, is a prcject in which all the Colonies of the Ern- vire mvire are.iuterested in a greater or less degree. The representatives present at the Ottawa Conference include the Earl of Jersey, Imperial delegate, be- sides representatives from the South African and Australasia Colonies. In the words of the Governor General's opening speech, "there will be no cause to regret that Canada and Canada's e:apital has been selected for the piece of holding this conference." The Prem- Ter followed in his usual felicitous and eomprebensiye style, tendering a wel come to the Imperial and Colonial del- egates in which Sir John voiced the sentiments of millions of British people as to the desire ability of extending inter -colonial trade, the binding more closely together of Imperial and Oolon• sal iurerests, to be accomplished main- ly through a fast line of steamships across the Atlantic as well as by a sub- marine cable extending from Vancou- Ter, B. C., to Australia via the Fiji and I!Hawaiin Islands. As was most be fitting, the opening proceedings of the great Inter colonial Conference were brought to, a close by an address con- gratulating Her Majesty on attain- ing the fifty seventh anniversary of her coronation. It is probable that sev eral days will bo occupied in discuss- ing the vastly important topics whish ?have drawn together so many distin- guished men from all parrs of the Em Aire. THE POLITICAL ISSUE. Now that the smoke and din of the recent electoral contest have passed away, we are in a position to weigh calmly the result -and to draw such Lessons therefrom as the case demands. Sertainly the contest is one that has greatly disappointed the expectations of friends and foes. Viewing it in all its bearings, there can be no denying the fact that the Mowat government have sustained a virtual defeat. When we consider the extraordinary efforts put forth, and the variety of combined anflaenees brought to bear in favor of the Ontario government, the result of the recent contest is one of which Mr, Meredith and his followers have reason to be proud. Not only was the whole power of the iomish hierarchy brought to bear, through Archbishop Cleary -net only was the personal and political influence of Principal Grant and other leaders of his church levelled against Meredith at the. eleventh hour -but the liquor interest was wheedled into line to do the bidding of men who could stick at nothing to gain their ends. In the face of all those fearful odds arrayed against the able leader of the Opposition Mr. Meredith has se- eured nearly one half the constituences -leaving it doubtful whether Mr, Mowat can carry on his government• Seventeen, of his followers have been rejected, while the speaker of the As- sembly and one Cabinet Minister have bed.to bite the dust. Not only that -but comparing the results of the last election with the preyious one, the ]Mowat party have lost ground all along the line owing to greatly re- duced majorities. Indeed it is safe to say that leaving out of account the Itomish element, and the liquor inter- est support, the Mowat administration represents only a small minority of Ontario's electorate. If Sir Oliver is a Christian g'enilemstn and a true pat- riot, he would at once tender the seats of office into the Lieut. Governor'e. hands, who would call upon Mr, Mere- dith to forma government. As it is, should the Patrons and Independents stand by the Opposition, a diesel Minn or else the resignation of Mr, Mowat's Cabinet is an inevitable result after the opening. of the first session, of the new Legislation. The only thing that stayes Mowat's administration ai d give him a working majority in the House, will be the adoption of some finesse wffli the Patrons and Independents by which he may reconeile thein to Ws aent%nued lease of /lower. Will be tried for Murder.. WunCain, the young roan who was shot by Edward Bowers in 'Biddulph Township on Friday, .June 22, died. somewhat suddenly on Sunday about midnight. The result of his death is. that Bowers will have to answer to the charge of murder. Cain's death was not expected. During last week he w,as'reported to be on the mend, but on Saturday he took a bad tura, Sunday his condition was easier, and whoa his medical attendant left him fifteen ruin utas before his death recovery seemed quite possible. He was noticed to breathe heavily for a minute or two, and then fall back dead. Crown Attorney Magee was notified Monday, and ordered that an inquest be hold. Bowers was greatly disturb- ed when he heard the news. He is lying in the County Jail. London Township: Au interesting event took place on Wednesday last at the residence of Mr. I. S. Shoebottom, 9th con, Loudon Township, being the marriage of his sister,' Lizzie, to W. II. Freele, of Nissouri. The ceremony was performed on the lawn by the Rev, Rural Dean Hodgins, of Seaforth (a brother -in law of the groom) after which a large number of invited. guests from the city and vicinity sat down to an enjoyable tea. The bride was waited on by Miss F reele, of Otta- wa, and Miss Shoebottom. while Messrs. Shoebottom and Colbert looked after the groom. The young couple are very popular and begin life with the best wishes of their numerous friends. Granton: Opening services of the new Methodist church. were held on Sunday las; and were largely attended. The Rev J. Holmes, of Clinton, preach ed in the morning and evening, and Rev. R. Redmond in the afternoon. Oii Mouday tea was served in the base Ment from five till nearly nine o'clock at which it is computed over 500 par- took. artook. Addresses followed from the Revs. Messrs. Holmes and Chowen. Mr. Jos. Brown presided. The Sunday collections amount to $100 aiid the con- tributions and proceeds of tea rua up in the neighborhood of $1200. The debt is provided for and the Methodists are to be congratulated upon having one of the handsomest churches in the district. The intercolanial conference meets in Ottawa to -day and Parliment has ad- journed over the day. Castoria is a marvelous thing for children Doctors prescribe it, medical journals recommend it and more .than a million mothers are using it in place of Paregoric, Bateman's Drops, so- called soothing syrups and other narcotic and stupefying remedies. Castoria is the quickest thing to regu- late the stomach and bowels and give l ealthy sleep the world has ever seen. It is pleasant to the taste and perfectly harmless, It relieves constipation quiets pain, cures diarrhoea and wind colic, and allays feverishness, destroys worms, and prevents ennvulsions, soothes the chili and gives it natural aiid refreshing sleep. Castoria is the children's panacea -the mother's friend Castoria is put up in one size bottles or ly.

Several cases should avail themselves of this opportunity, and mothers have ing children affected should make a special effort in this direction; this gen- tlemen has the highest testimony to his skill, from Physcians and Patients. Read the following, it speaks for itself. Dear Sir, -I have been ruptured about thirty-three years. My suffer- ings during that trine have bean in- tense sand can only be appreciated by those who have been similarly condit Toned.. My business as carpenter and joiner (as. all know) demands consider- able muscular exertion, frequently have I been compelled to quit work, although at the time wearing Trusses made by.thc most prominent makers. I could not stand erect, and often had to Ile down to ease my suffering. All the Trusses I have ever worn have been utter failures. It has been one long round of misery and mental anx- iety, Joss of time and physical torture About six months ago, thank God, I heard of your great success in the treatment of Rupture cases.. The ap- pliance you gave me, I can well re- member, a feeling of support never be fore experienced by me, and has 'so continued to the present day. I am now comparatively a new man. Prev- ious to this I could not stoop to tie my shoes, no matter what Trues I had on, if T got all ',Toronto, without my rup- ture coming out. To add to the diffi- culty r have suffered with a violent cough for years, but in the face of all this ,your grand appliance has held me seeu'e all the time while doing the hardest work, Only two clays ago I car- ried a bundle of green shingies tip on t two•storey building and not a` 'budge." I never could nor dare at, tempt such a thing before without danger of my life, To crown all nave warn and continue to wear your. sppliauce with grcat emnfort, for all.of which feel deeply indebted to yott for your skilful treatment, Very truly yours, DotrAnn MCry1Ngit, 1v6, Teraulay Sty, Toronto. Points on Haying. The extremely wet spring has pions ised an abundant hay crop in several places, and if properly gathered • and cured the haryest will be a profitable one, but late. While a large crop of good hay is apt to make prices a trifle lower, the extra amount of hay that we gather from each acre more than makes up for a decline in prices. This crop is becoming more important in the farm eeonoiny every year, and it will pay to giye greater consideration to it than ever before in its history. The tendency in many districts is to cut the hay crop either to early or too late, because haying times conies just when other crops detnaud our attention. There is so much plowing, hoeing, cul- tivating and planting required that the hay is apt to be neglected. Now, there is less loss to neglect most of other crops for a week than to let the hay crop take care of itself.. There is a time for the grass to be cut and it should be gathered at that time and not at some other season. Early cut - tine. of grass to avoid conflict with othe work is bad policy. Cutting grass very early because there is current to- day an idea that it makes better hay is also to be deplored. Unless it readi- es its maturity it will not as gc.od nut- ritious hay. It may seem sweeter and juicier, but it does not contain all the nutritious qualities that should belong to it. Let the grass reach maturity snot over ripeness) and then harvest as quickly as possible. If necessary cut only half the field at a time, if one part is mature and the other part still very green and young. This very re- sult happens where part of the field is on lower and moister ground, or where on one side is very rich soil and the other sandy. A good stand of grass properly cut and cured will bring in a good profit to any fanner; and do not become deluded with the idea that city purchasers do not know good from poor bay, They know so well they will single out the best every time, and -pay a premium on it if necessary to secure it. On the other hand,late cutting is eq- ually to be avoided. When grass is al- lowed to turn yellow it is losing its val- uable constituents, and every day after that will represent a total, loss to the owner. The loss is in two ways.. The. hay will be of a poorer grade, and . the future crop will be badly affected by it The roots of the plants are exhausted more when the stalks are allowed to get over ripe. Early cutting is consequent- ly a benefit,unless carried toan.extreme If late cutting is praetised,by allmeans manure the soil so that the. injured plants will be better nourished. This will insure a good crop next season. Tho plants get a good winter protec- tion quer them before the frosts of win. ter come to nip them, South Huron. SEAPORTH. Mc LEAN. WDISMILLER.

After the Grip No Strength, No Ambition Hood's sarsaparilla Cave Perfect Health. Tho following letter is from a well-known merchant tailor of St. George, N. B.: C.LHood Co„ Mass.: "Gentlemen -I am glad. to say that Hood's Sarsaparilla and Hood's Pills have done me n great dual of good. I had a severe attack of the grip in the winter, and after getting over the fever I did not seem to gather strength, and had no ambition. Flood's Sarsaparilla proved to be ;est what I needed. The results were very satisfactory, and.I recommend this medicine to all who are afflicted. with rheumatism or other .ffrictions caused by poison and poor blood. I „sways keep Hood's Sarsaparilla in my house and use it when I need a tonic. We also keep Flood's Pills on hand and think highly of them." 1. W. D ame.,t , St. George, New Brunswick. Sciatic Rheumatism Capt. McCranalenn Tells allow He Was Cured. "_bout a year ago I was taken with a severe .track of sciatic rheumatism and was laid off host of the summer. I went from here to St; Sohn, N. B., in my packet schooner, and was so :clpless and in such suffering that 1 could not •et out of the cabin. The captain of another _hooner came on board to see me, and wanted :o to get Hood's Sarsaparilla; he said it had Sarsaparilla ES cured Trim when he was so bad that his wife had to feed him. I sent to Boston for two bot- tles, which did for me all I had been told Hood's Sarsaparilla would do. I gained rapidly and when 1 had taken the two bottles I was able to work. A groat many people here have taken Hood's Sarsaparilla since it cured me, and all speak highly of it." GATT. S. id=GRANAaarr. Margaretville, Nova Scotia.
