Ailsa Craig.
Mr. Robert Morton, a farmer living about
a mile east of Ailsa Craig, in McGillivray
• townehip, had hie barn. outbuildings and
coetente, which consisted of over one thous.
and bushels of grain and this season's °top
ot hay, entirely consumed Sunday morn-
ing. Rio son, a child six or seven years old,
•was also lourned to death in the barn. It
eeeins he and his brother, a boy ten years
•old, were playing in the loft of the bath,
and when the fire started the oldest got
down the ladder and called for the other to
eome, but the little fallow could not get
down for the flames, and although the
other child ran for the father, before
he could get there the fismee bad
spread so he oould yet get to his assistance.
The body was found afterwards at the other
end of the barn, terribly mutilated, the
head and lege being entirely burned away.
It is supposed the boys mnst have been
playing with matches, and set fire to the
hay. The loss of property will be heavy,
as the bailuings were only insured for $300,
and the contents for a small amount. The
dead boy was buried Sunday afternoon.

resignation of John Anderson be accepted
(earned. Mr. Berryasked the question if
it was the intention of the Board to appoint
a collector at this meeting, and being an.
twered in the affirmative, be denounced
such an action, etating that it appeared as
if something underhanded was being done.

to apply an equal °DEMOB for the office.
There were many men in the township cap-
able of filling the position. and if the matter
was bit over ior a week thee° men would
apply, Mr. Sinclair :—Are you ready for

advertised in the papers that such an officer
is wanted, when applications can be , eceived
and then appoint a man to the position.—
No seconder. Mr. Sieclair did not think
there was time to call another meeting.
Mr. Johnson thought it was getting too
late in the season to call ariothet• meeting.
The .collector should be fulfillipg his duties
now, This WaS his reason for appointing
a, man to -clay although he did not approve
of doing so. Motion carried, The clerk
was instructed to prepare by-law confirna-
ing Mr. Armstrong's n,ppoin talent, °Min.

OnFriday rnoon last the ..-zOti"thuilcl-
ing of Mr. W. M. Leigh of Kirkton were
burned to the ground. Mr. Leigh was ;••
the field firing stumps, and his littlee...eour
year old boy, thinking he would !rave a
blaze of his own, set fire to„,..ilie straw •
stack at the barn. After a:de stack was
alt a blaze the little fellbw ran to the
house and told his mother to look at,Ehis
fire. Mr. Leigh was called, and before
anything but stock and a binder could be
removed the barn was envelopecl in the
flames. Mr. Leigh is a heavy loser, as
the building contained the season's crop
as well as the greater number of the
implements. Slight insurance.
Richelieu.
conservativ_e_viotory in
Montreal Oct. 18. --The great Ministerial
victory in the county of Richelieu is the
all -absorbing topic. The Liberal Conser-
vatives are jubilant, while the Nationalists "
are correspondingly creetfallen, yet both
parties adniit that Riehelleu's verdict
cannot but have a widespread effect. upon
all corning elections in the Prpvince of
Quebec, whether for the Legislature .or
the Ottawa Parliament...,The Hon, Mr.
Chapleau, Messrs. Bergeron, • M. P.,
Mantel, M. P. P., Vamasse, H. P.', Rain,
M. P., and. other Conservative; workers
arrived f rom the country this ow:zing,
and it is needless to say that their 'recep-
tion was enthueiastic It appears DOW ,
that Mr. Massoe's majority is evenolarger
than reported last evening One of the
polls embraced in the returns had na:been
counted and the aorreet majority is '.now
given at 334, a result never before attained
in the county of Ruthelieu. It has, with-
out doubt. been a farmers' triumph, and
the polling comparisons will go to shove
how unrestricted reciprocity is regarded
by the rurt.1 population of French Canada.
Old canvassers,, whose long experience
make MIMI, wbfelo reliable, say that the
voice of Richelieu will be the voice of the
entire province wheneyer solicited, either ,•
in a local or federal contest. The parish,
of St. Marcel gave the conservative candi-
date in .1887 a majority of 32, which it
now iocreased to bet "rime 60 and 70. lo
St. Louis an Opposition majority of 67 has
been wiped out and a Government niNintity
of 27 secured In Ste, Ann Copt. Labelle's
opponent wee 76 ahead in 1887, while the
present returns ehow 40 majority for the
Conservative side. Substantial gains have
been made all over the country, but theee
quoted are the most important and ..tiliour
most conclusively that the farthere,-of this
prnvince at least, arc satisfied vvith the
prose]] t regi m e . Black of St. 'Tobin
who did tioble work during the fight, says
that the name of Sir Jan MacDonald
is veneeated tunotiest the people of Riche.
