It appears a little doubtful as to whether he will suoceed. THE Directors of Grey Branob and East Huron Agricultural Societies should meet et ones and get thinge in motion for the Fall Fair, Dont dilly-dally, gentlemen, but get a hustle on. No matter what either or both politi- cal parties adopt as their platform along tariff lines, we believe an out and out Free Trade policy with the world and cutting the head off every monopoly is what the majority of Canadians desire. 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 no small advantage to have Christian in- fluence in the aeaendant at Rideau Hall - is that the right designation of thevioere• gal residence 7 furan, County.

The Manchester murder mystsry of Fall Elver is aleafod by the ooufeesion of Jus, E.

He had work- ed for the girl's father for several weeks, and had tried in vain to collect a sum of money which he says was due for wages. It was to eeouro tide money by theft that hoilvieited the house. Consul Al. ureide said Correiro had been turned out of a friend's house, on the day before the murder, penniless and hungry. He knew , Farmer Manchester owed. him money and supposed he kept a good deal hidden in the house. Correiro says he only in. tended to take what was due him when he entered the house. He arrived at the house just after the old man had started on his milk route, and was met by the girl as he entered the kitchen, Correiro told the girl he was after the money her father owed him, and after some talk Bertha seized the axe and ordered him out of the house. He refused to go, and she rushed at him with the weapon. Correiro is a thin, alight man, and in the struggle which ensued he felt Bertha would overcame him, as she was a power. ful girl. As she rushed athim he evaded a blow aimed at him and oloeed in with the woman. Theo Correiro scoured a hold on the axe, and wresting it from the girl, struck her, Oorrelro did not have so much as a penknife about him when he entered the house. ALLAN LIN E 'loyal (tall.
