Mr. McLelan, the present post- ster•General. has decided to ac• cept the I.,ieutenant-Governorship ot Nova Scotia.. His successor has not yet been na.rned. 1_,ORD STANLEY, the new Gover- ner -General arrived last week and was sworn in on Saturday. He is credited with decidedly democratic conduct, ar,d is said to be a ma.n for the people. THE United States Senate Mon- day discussed the fisheries treaty in open executive session, Mr. Gray speaking in support of the treaty. At the close further consideration ..pestponed till. the 25th inst. A POETAGE ' LA PRAIRIE letter says: -The June rain is just mak- ing nature array herself in her richest robes, besides gladdening the heart of man and beast and diepelling the fears that were en- tertained for the coming crop. MR. ALEXANDER BEGG has offer- ed. the Imperial Government, on behalf of the Government of Brit- ish Columbia, to take over fifty Crofter families as a test, provided L.I20 be advanced to each. He proposes to form a fishing village in Vancouver Island, AN officialbulletin concerning the German Emperor's condition °--Stris that during the la.st few days the Emperor has had slight diffi- culty in swallowing, which, how- ever, has not affected his general health. The disgusting symptoms have almost entirely disappeared. AT a Democratic convention held at St. Louis, Mo. last week Grover Cleveland was nominated for President by acclamation amidst the wildest excitement. By a vete of 25 to eg it was agreed to endorse and reiterate the tariff platform of 1884. The minority desired to have the principle of tariff for revenue only amplified and made the tariffof the platform. IT is quite probable that the con- vention on Tuesday next -the day on -which the Councils of the, seer; eral municipalities adjacent te Ex• eter meet here to discuss the mat- ter -will eettle as to whether the southern part of the County shall have a high school. Indiyidually the members seem to be favorable to the scheme providing the cost be not too great, but collectively what their ideas of the project will be remains to be seen. Some claim that the southern part of the county is certainly entitled to a high school in view ot the fact of their -being three in the northern part of the County to which the southern people have to contribute; and that they might as well have • added to their taxes a few cents more and have a school convenient to their homes. It is urged, too, by others, and it must be confessed • with considerable force, that the • undue multiplication of High • Schools interferes with their use- fulness and lessens their efficiency; at the sameitirne there is no dou'et that placing such institutions with- in easy reach of all communities of the country makes it much easier for a larger proportion of the pop- ulation to attend them, without being compelled to reside too far from their homes. Many people have not the means to pay the board and incur the other unavoid- able expenses which the continu- ous residence of their children away horn home renders neces, sa ley. The jealousy of rival towns and villages where High Schools are already established and flour- ishieg is generally the strongest influence which has to be eontend- ed against in the formation of new districts. To establish a High School in Exeter the increase in taxes individually would be very light -some few cents annually - so thee besides having an educa- tional institution of the kind witle- in easy access, the cost would be small compared with the tax that is now being peed and will still have to be paid, for the maintenance of the High Schools throughout the county, from which no actual ben- efit is being derived, owing to their nefavorable location. Now that the matter has gone so far and in. dications look so bright. it is to be hoped that no biased or selfish mo. tives, such as will infatuate the scheme, will be acidueed; and that the school will be established and prosper, without seriously detract. mg from the usefulness and success of those now in existenee. Two miners arrived at Ottawa Tuesday with a lump of gold weighiog 42 pounds. They found it in British Columbia, They were offered $3,000 tor their find, but deelined it. The nugget will be placed on exhibition in the window of a Montreal 'broker. IT is stated that the Ontario Government have concluded the exchange of a portion of the Gov- ernment Farm at Mimic() for about sixty acres ot land owned by Mr. 13enjantin Goldthorpe, of Etibi• coke, fronting on the lake shore, It is proposed to erect the new asylum cottages on this property, which is siauated a short distance beyond Mimico village, SOME of fhe American Univer- sities are considering the establish- ment of a Department of Journal- ism, The only wonder is that the colleges in, 0a.nada don't equip such a chair --perhaps it is because newspapers are so fond of sneering at the idea of a college made edi- tor. The sneer is misplaced. Of course a journalist cannot be thor- oughly equipped in a theoretical class. Neither can a doctor nor a lawyer; but the fact does not cast derision on law or medical schools. To become an attorney, a physic- ime or an editor requires practice and hard work ; but schools to de- velop such tendencies and give in- telligent directions to such impel. ses and purposes are as valuable, as any other in the world. Eyery- body should prosecute the 'study of journalism as earnestly and as methodically as the study of any other profession. County Parliament. The equalization of assessment of the various municipalities' for county rate purposes was, as usual, the main besiness at the June session. The acreage of the townships having been increased some 16,000 acres in order to bring the area up to the actual quantity, the equalized yalue of the three most progressive towns in the county- was raised in •proportion to their progress and importance. $30,000 was added to Clinton; 820,000 to Seaforth; $10,000 to Blyth; with these exceptions values are the same as last year. Inspector of Public t Schools Malloeh presented a detailed report of school matters in North Huron. The diligence of the teachers was eyidenced by the. generally satisfactory progress of the pupils. A large number of those employ. ed during 1886 retained their positions for '87, thus giving an opportunity for better progress than where teachers are changed yearly. For entrance examinations to High Sehools 320 candidates wrote, of whom 251 eere successful. At non-pro- fessional exaninations there were 203 candidates, with a good percentage suc- cessful, and of the 73 model students 68 were successful. The Inspector thinks the time is near when the maximum fee of tt.l. will be charged for entrance examin- ations. ' At the present time there is a surplus of teachers in the country ; a nun-iber holding certidcates have no schools. On this account no permits, extensions: or temporary ceetificates are issued. The send -annual and annual reporte from the different sections are not sent in as promptly as they should be, but there is a noticable improvement in this matter.
