O'Bunau, Mt P„ of Muskoka, warmly supports Mr. McCarthy in his opposition to the Trade polioy of the Dominion Government. Tae members of the Imperial Perlia inept don't mine matters when de- bating public questions and as a con- sequence the words '•liar," "coward," ,to, are favorite epithets with some of these gentleman (?). when they desire to be partioulo.rly emphwie. A GREAT deal has been said and written in reference to a reduction of County Councillors but no satisfactory "r work- able pan has yet been deeidod upou. The various Couplet Connells, as far as we have noticed, are epp•.sed to any of the schemes advanced up to the present.

It, 'r fifth will inmate polittcat life and be made Chief Ju•tioe of the Cana diem Superior Court. Ae to whom hi+ mantle will fall upon as leader of the Opposition in the Local Legislature no one appears to know. Mr. Meredith says he has been seriously h,ndicapped in she House for want of good book. ing.

Some of their leaning states• men affirm that a Continental war is tin• min,+fit and it behoves them to be found reads. for the greatest struggle Europe ever witnessed. Tree Yankee quarantine against O•tn• adian cattle is another nail in the coffin of ,.,,;eters and drovers in this country if the expected regulations are carried out, It is said it will also militate against steak heing sent to the Exposition at Ohmage if the embargo is not removed. The fuss and kick up both in England and tete U. S. is silly anyhow as Cana. diem cattle are as free from disease as they ever were. Deems the legislation of Meek) Sam. to hill out the well • known fakirs—the Louisiana Lottery Company -and pre. vont them from carrying on their swind- ling h,siness, they have been foiled to a large extent.

Jcoeuta by the following the old time feud between the North and South in the United States is being very properly obliterated and the rival factions united. Th,e desirable state of things has been largely aided by President Harrison's j appointment of Mr. Jackson to the place on the Supremo Court Bench rendered vacant by Jnetice Lamar. 8inoe the civil war aha Southern States have not been repr+stinted in the Supreme Conti wept by fir, tatnar, who was appointed by Mr. Cleveland during the one term in wiles the Democrats have been in office. The Republican party, against whom the solid South wet arrayed, pro- fessed to believe that it wohld nob be safe to appuiut Soothornere to the Sti• preme Court Bench, which le the inter- preter and the preserver of the constibo- tion. Mr. Linoolh kept one or two vacancies open, avowedly with the inten. tion of appointing Southerners to thein after the close of the war, but his assns. sination ender/ hie career before the trine carnet for the appointments. The nom- ination of a Southern Democrat, ani one who was on the Confederate side during the war, by a Repablioan President, is equivalent to the strongest kind of declaration by the foremost rerroeenta- tine of the Iiepabiican party that the "bloody chasm" ie closed, and that the loyalty to the constitution of the Smith - ethers who wore Confederates is no more to be doubted than that of the Northern. era who etre 1 odeeale.
