interfereeoe of the Senate his little
game was spoiled. Be !ten in that,

Mr. Mowat eeeeyed to make up for n, White wheat ...
and brought in bis redistribution bill , Scutt
o hereby he oat ved out three ridings in Fife
Huron. Still, in the face of all his
piotegoe Mr. 13ishnp escaped defeat at
the hands of Mr. George Case, by a
comparatively small majority, and that
without very efpi,,ient orgauiz`.ttinn. so
that there is good hope of South Huron
falling into litre next election and re-
turning an opponent of the Mowat
Government. Mr. Bishop, who has
been cnnspicnons in the House for the
past six years, by his name appearing
merely among the yeas and nays, and
nothing more. is again a candidate in
the Grit interest, and is opposed by Mr.
George Jackson, of Egmondville. So
far as these gentlemen are concerned.
Mr. Jackson is in every way the
snperi„r. He is a sterling business
man of long standing in the ridiug,and
has by his energy and superior ability
established far himself a business
career of which he has gond reason to
feel proud. While lie .has succeeded
in bnsiuess he has done so without
oppressing any person ; be has also
won for himself the esteem of all Glasses,
so that he will make a mare useful man
in the Legislature of his country than
11r. Bishop. Li fact., it is a pity that
there are not more business meu of Mr.
Jackson's stamp in Parliament..: The
electors of South Huron l_ehould bear
this fict in mind and give it a calm
consideration, and . when the proper
time 'arrives make a loitig. •pull and a
strong pull, and place . 14In.: Jackson
