Tun Liberal Convention beld at Otta-
wa this week was one of the largest
gabheringe of the kind, probably, aver
beld in the Dominion. Sir Oliver
Mowat was chosen chairman, and Mes-
srs. Hyman, Deschene and Balfour,
Secretaries. Addresses were given by
the leading man of the Party of whish
further particulars will be given next
week.
TaeTimm are now 38 wards receiving aid
from Huron County and the large
amount of $3,500, or thereabouts, will
have to be raised annually to provide for
their wants. In addition the County is
paying a very large proportion for the
maintenance of the jail, officials, &o.,
owing to that public institution being
utilized as a home for the friendless.
The Dominion has stated that the money
in the Co. Treasurer's hands, derived
from Scott Aot fines, amounting to
$4,000 or 15,000, belongs to Huron Co.
and may consequently be used as the
County Council directs. In view of all
this if a House of Refuge is ueaessary,
and is more economical and calculated
to add comfort to the lives of the desti-
tute why ndt have it ? A turn of three
votes at the recent session of the County
Council would have given an affirmative
vote for this Home and we believe when
a vote is taken next January instead of
thele being a majority of a few hundred
favorable, as at last election, thousands
will vote Yea. Ashfield, Colborne,
Taokeremith and Turuberry, as rural
municipalities, have set a good example
in leading off in favor of a House of Re.
fags. It will do good to discuss this
question and get all the light possible.
As: it is there are probably a snore of
County Councillors who voted nay would
most gladly record their vote favorable if
the electors of their respeotive municipal.
ties would back them up.
AN English Correspondent writes :-
You will remember that your English
correspondent was amongst the first to
announce that the Earl of Aberdeen
would probably be appointed Governor-
General of Canada. Other names were
freely mentioned, but I saw no eufaoiect
reason to ohmage my opinion. I had the
honor and pleasure of knowing Lord and
Lady Aberdeen, and my love for Canada
is so intense that I oould wish for her no
better fortune titan to have Lord Aber-
deen and his excellent lady at the head
of Canadian affairs, And now, as you
know, the appointment is publicly an.
nomad. I am sure it will be very pop.
ular with you. Lady Aberdeen loves
Canada, I have heard her say so, as I
conversed with her in the beautiful
grounde of their residence at Dallis Hill.
She was a Miss Marjoribauks, daughter
of Lord Tweedmonth; and I need not
remind you bow they "took Ireland by
storm." They needed no police or mili-
tary escort. They at once won the im. 2
pressible hearts of the people of Ireland,
They interested themselves in all good
works, and everybody loved them. I
hope they will stay longer in Canada
than they did in Ireland. It seems such
a pity that a change in the Homo Gov-
ernment should generally involve a
change in the Governor -Generalship of
a great Dominion like Canada. 11 is
