The trial of the protest against the re- turn of Dr. Montague began on Tuesday before Justice Stmet at agiyuga. A. B. Aylsworth for petitioner ; Dalton MO- Carthy, Q.0., for respondent. The morning was taken up with hearing a charge of attempted bribery by one Glen- nie, who was alleged to havegone to Jelin Macfarlane and offered him 816 for two pigs if he would vote for Montague. There are some 40 or 50 tharges, and it is expected the case willlast the remaind- er of the week.
