B. Talbot, county engineer, and Mr. L. Hardy (after the results of examinations were laid before him) both declare the bridge "perfectly cafe ; " on the other hand, .Pro Bono Publico" says it is "dil- apidated" and a "disgrace." He don't enlighten us as to how he reached that conclusion ; so the public will have to judge between us—to take either the evidence of the coattail, all practical men, pone of thein dealing in that eorl of thing more or less for. 12 years, Messrs. F. B. Talbot and L. Hardy, on the one, hand, or the ipse- di:sit of a gentleman who had not the moral courage to make his charges over his own name. His memory is ai fault, too, when he says our corpo• ration intended at one time to rebuild the bridge this season. '1'he'corpo- ration' intended nothing of the kind, as they thought from examinations made that it would be a waste of money, or at !eta, for the present, an unueceeeary expenditure of the pee• ple'e money ; and, in conclusion, let me assure my friend that'if the bridge is as he asserts Y would be going the' wrong way to make popularity by de- ferring the building of what he' .says is a continual danger and menace to the travelling public.; If to make popularity. were my ambition, oar citizens are too enlightened to be; im- posed an in that way. I would just matte one suggestion to my friend, if from the fact of a few boards of'the inside lining being removed so that the timbers could be got at toteat,'I renders the strnoture suoh;; s,n eyesoe` to him, 'if be will say no more aboutla' toa s4lzort to enable one to judge of its t,;, ff c t added bent it is "perfectly safe, The as Lucen Is concerned there is no g a g s a person most is perhaps the abeenoe of people on our slreete and of farm - ere' teams at hotel stables, but as this is albusy season with farmers, .tt>is may not be attributable to flee Scott h Aothiving been declared in force. To the gnediion—ie the Act honestly car ried out ? different, answers are re- turned. Those who eupported it think the Act is faithfully observed, while' on the other hand, those who opposed it say that the law is'quietly ignored, and that the initiated oan get all the strong drink they want. This will probably be the case while the Act ;remains in force, one party de• nounoing it as a failure, and the other upholding it and; claiming that it is observed as well as the ordinary run of other laws upon the statute book. The great danger which I and others appreIend is.not the - open violation of the Aot by respectable hotel -keep- ers and ;.those who formerly dealt in liquor,btit the transfer of the business from duly licensed individuals, amen- able to the law, to low, unlicensed dens, kept by people who have no character to lose, This has been the ease whe'reyer the S. A. has come in force, and unless something be done to prevent this Bort of thing the Act will not be a success. I am afraid it is a hard row to hoe, although here in Middieees active steps are being taken towards the enforcement of the law. I uphold giving it• a fair trial, and if, at the end of the three years, ib has proven a failure, repeal it. The hotel -keepers here,are apparently observing the. lav„ a..iI is:to'be gelled: =that none'of them will ever be found guilty of transgression. Yours, &tee INDEPENDENT. Lucan, May 18th, 1886. That Sanble Bridge. To the Editor of the Exeter Times. SIR. —In your last week's issue your Lucan correspondent, under the 7100 de plume of "Pro bono Publico," (which in the present case is a mis- nomer) reiterates his former state- ments about.," dilapidated objects " and "disgrace to the township," and such choice phrases in describing one of our bridges, which he now ocates on the road between Clandebo and Liman. In his former oommunloation it was a few miles west of Lucan, but now he takes another direction and briugs us to the Sauble bridge. If he had~husbanded his Latin and gave us his own name we would know what value to plane on his opinion, for, in his ease, I am quite sure' it can only be a matter of opinion. Let ns now consider how far his statements are correct : Our eonncil has recently and repeatedly instituted a series of thorough investigations into the con- dition of the bridge in question with the result that,we have not disoover- ed the slightest development of weak- ness in the whole superstructure ; we have not found one piece of timber, from abutment to abutment,displaoed, warped,, or otherwise disabled, and that the superstructure from one abutmentabuttnerea to the other has not sagged one•lialf inch, which would surely not :,be the case if P. B. P's assertion was correct. Further, we found every etiek of timber in said bridge perfect- ly sound, with one exception, and I would venture a new hat that our Lucan friend would not find that spot without making a thorough search; but to enable flim to find it at once end examine it for himself, it is the south chord and oorbler just at the west abutment., and even that spot has not moved or been displaced in the least; end to prevent any giving way at that point, we have placed a strong bent sufficient to reeeiye the whole weight of the end of the bridge, so that if the whole tress were. taken down the two bents would bo sufficient to eatry the bridge safely. The truss is as sound as the day it sane erected, and from aetiral and searching exam- ination we woe led to the conclusion that the bridge is not "di(apidatee" nor a l disgrace," but perfectly safe for public`travel. I believe you could place a string of Stearn threshing en• gines from10130 ens to the e other with „ safety. to be doubly sure and to restore public confidence, while as weakened' by senseless talk of bridge being unsafe, we omployell Mr, F. R. Talbot, coleety engineer, and Mr, M. Ttiornpson fell, from Ilia wagon on Saturday evening, and the wheels passed OVOL.` hie legs, but the igjury was alight, A moot pleasant and harinonious Meeting of the Official Board of the L+'limviile Circuit Methodist Church wet held at Elimville on the 10th lust There wawa large attendance. There were no deilioieucioe reported. All the reports indicate steady growth and prosperity. Messrs, D. Melnoels and T. Worry, jr., were elected to at- tend the district meeting. Extensive improvements are to be made in the parsonage, Rev, W. H. Gane, " sup- erintendent of the circuit, was unani- mously invited by the November of. ficial meeting to remain the third year. Rev, T. T. George, his col. league, was tendered a cordial vote in recognition of his efficient services during the year. The Ub orae circuit was one of the most important fields in the late Bible Christian denomina- tion, and now the Elitnviile circuit takes rte place among the most promi- nent airouite in. the London Confer - Oboe. lil.ansbi rd Coifed. The regular meeting of the council was held on Monday, the 3rd day of May. All the members present., Minutes of the previous meeting were read and confirmed. Mr. Wm. Pea - cook, applied for an outlet to drain a portion of his farm. Moved by Mr. Graham, sec, by Mr. Speariu, that the Reeve be ap- pointed to meet Mr. Stanley, Reeve of Biddalph, on 'Friday; the 7th inst., at 10 a. in., to attenit to the matter, the clerk to notify Mr. Stanley.

Mr. Gowan, reported the road near Nicol's mill, in a yery bad condition. Messrs. Graham and Speariu were appointed to have it repaired. The following orders were issued. and signed : Wm.

We could have it decorated with a boquet on each end, so, that, even Oscar Wilde's feelings would not. be in the least affeotod by its appear- ance. Now, Mr. Editor, I am done with this matter, and hope that all ground of complaint between us and Lnoan friends is removed. We are tired of this whining. We are first rated over a mad soheme of building a branch railway, next over refusing to establish a High School to be un• der the ooutroi of the village, and, non again for what ? For daring to attend to our own business. Thanking you, Mr. Editor, for your former kindness in publishing my reply to our Luoan friend, Hope this will reoeive the same courtesy. I remain yours re• speotfully, W. H00PER. Centralia, May 17, '86. LADIES wino surasn, as only themselves know, aro now beginning to know that a congested condition of the system, if not removed, causes the chronic complaints from which they so much suffer; this congestion occurs most frequently in the kidneys, liver and other abdominal organs, and it can readily be removed by that wonderful pre- paration, Warner's safe cure. Centralia. Mr. Lingard has got word from headquarters that the Salvation Army will storm the town next Thursday evening. ' Messrs. P. Breen and J.

John, son of Mr. John Mulley, of this viliaso, died at his residence in Usborno on Monday, aged 29 years. Deceased was a promising young man, and his sudden death has cast a gloom among his friends.
