Mr. Mackenzie was forced to keep a die - erect silence 011 these gneetiens when in Montreal, but could expatiate at length on the broad prniciples of free trade when in Scotland, and in the election of an avowed protectionist, who denounced his fiscal policy, when he himself had to stand silently by, Mr. Mackenzie must feel terribly humili- ated. The pill whfcia "Mr. Mackenzie had to swallow in vinthally abandoning his free trade principles eannot be sug- ar-coated, at all events. It is „stated that Mr. White would certainly have been elected had the election not been held on a Saturday, as that day is the Jews' Sabbath, and they were almost unanimous for White. With regard to the truth of this statement, we at this distance are not prepared ts" risk an as- sertion.

East Huron. It was in justice to himself ,tnd to those. be implicated that ' we hove so lona kept silent, in order 'Clot the truth of what he was reported to have said might have been verified, or otherwise. It was at a public meeting in Mount Foreet in .favor of Mr. Gar- butt, the Reform candidate, that Mr. Gibson said he had had prothised the support of the Local members fer Huron to assist hi "putting" safely through the House o actuate for the re-divisiou of the County of Welling- ton, with Mount ,Forest as county town, if the latter place would support the Grit candidate. Saws an open fact of bribery—and 'promised from the lips of the " honest Reformer"—was so glaring that it is no wonder an enquiry should be asked for. Not only does it affect the person most intimately con- nected from his individual participa- tion, but it affects those whom his im- plicated, viz., Messrs. Bishop and Ross. With a view to fairness, we made it iieeperative to ask the member for South 'Huron as to his proxy pledge, and a halo of astossishenent ht up his every feature apparently at the idea. His denial of any knowledge or participa- , . tion in any way was a most emphatic one. Thus was the weight of double. distilled. truth thrown upon the shoul- ders of the member for East Huron, and an opportumtregiven either to deny the allegation or reaffirm his own statement. Neither of these has he 80011 fit to do; and now we cannot but remain under the impressionthat if Mr. Gibson told the truth at Mount Forest, Mr. Bishop has committed him- self to an aet, to wipe away the effect of which it will require all the parliaa aleatory dodging, an eaperience which no me,n can ever poseess, to get rid of. On the ether hand, if Mr. Bishop is correct, and we would not like to von-. tun) an opinion that he wasn't, then is Mr. Gibson in a still sorrier plight, as he bas the double act of falsehood and bribery to account for, Either Mr. Gibson has to deny with sufficient proof the circulated reports, or one or other of the alternatives above reached must be accepted. Aiaa matter of fair- ness to those directly interested, to the constitaencieg they respectively repre- sent; and to. the Province at large, it should wet be lost sight of,as, until jus- tice is done and the guilt saddled' upon the right person, the members for ends of the Houses will remain ender a stig- ma not 'alike auto imiocence. Mr. Bishop, however, has denied the fact, if it is one, and thus relieved himself in a measure of any blame: There can be no doubt that promises were made .and inducements -held out to the peo- ple of Mount Forest, in consideration of 'whiele the vote was reducea to a majority for Garbutt, wbile at the elec: tion preViods MeGo wan had a majority of abent 37, COUNTY DIVISION. Seine- \notate Since we were taken to 'book by. the Seitfortie Expositor for eonieneenttrks wade with, a view to fur- thering the divieion of the 'Western Counties, We were asked to prove, or seam' to raitlie statemeots which would bear the weight ef assamption and not emit aSide any burdee of proof. °To enable us fully and definitely to lay our ease before the Public, who in this m - (stance are judge and jary, we waited 'until opportunity would' render this practicable. In tlie article to which we have referred, the Expositor need a very plitusible argument asatinst the forma- tion or division of the 'counties, viz., that which most intimately,affects the pock -et and forms at undesired ac- - quaintance therewith. No better ar. gnmentagainst the movement could be presented, but all its deteriorating qualities are wiped out, when placed alongside of it ere the qualifyinss influ- ences of advantageWhich ate rebuttal sough to convince those .who are ar eliould be interested that the amount invested is as so much capital placed in stock paying good dividends. It is Well to understand in connection with this anti -division promulgation by our contemperary that she town of Seaforth would probably net stand in exactly as . good a position as it does at present, from the faet'tliat the people of the new county would naturally consider it a pleasing duty to assist in making that of which they. torni' a part; one.of the best comatiesaratnia Province, by help- ing forward their Own institutiOns and their owdinovements of whatever kind. And again; disitur cotem. for one min- ute suppose ii‘Poesible b3s agitation to form a new 'county, with Sertforth for a centre, ail its newly -acquired ideas of fairness and philanthropy,would be sud- denly scattered to the Winds. dvised- ly do we 'speak thus, as who amongst the essepesiter's reasiere does not know how arduously it labored at the incep- lion and during the primitive progrees of the carrying of the bonuses for the London, Huron St Bruce Railway. In factait was to be of extra nelieary bene- fit to the nothicipalities through which it, was to pass. And why ? That is easily answered. It was thought more advisable to run the line though Clin- ton, and put aside the Seatorth scheme. Those who Were delighted by the arti- cles eraiimendatory of the, road which appeared in the Expositor WOO some- -what surprieed at the cempleta somer- sault taken byit when the astiole force of tbe truth of the desertion of Seaforth fell upon it, Their the road Was a de - 1051011, and the ratepayers were being robbed.

TEMPERANCE Mesernra.— On Monday evening last, a temperance meeting, under the auspices of the Sons of Tem perance in, this place, was held in the basement of the Methodist Church, At seven o'clock the doors were opened, and shortly after a very fair audience was present. Dr. Browning was called to the chair, which he filled very ably, calling in turn unoa the choir and the several speakers and readers. Rev. Messrs. Gone and Holmes, of this vil- lage, and Rev., Mr. Benson, of Strath. roy, gave addresses full of import and truth, which tended to stn• up the feel- ings of those present to a deeper work in the cause of temperance. Mr. Holmes' address was'thiefly devoted to the late Prohibition Convention in Montreal, together with thoughtgamd comments thereon. br. Irving read in good and taking style, "Tho North- ern Farnecr,"whichns ith its humorisms, kept the audience in a continuous roar. Mr. B. Swenerton read an essay on "Cheerlulness."
