Owrso to the continued illness of the
M.P.P. for North Drees itlis hinted that
an election may be brought on in that
oonetithency before long. In view of
this fact the names of Dr. McKay, reeve
of Bruce, or John Pierson, reeve of San.

the Reform party and John George, a

An exchange rises to rensark:—A Do-
minion Government surveyor is said to
be employed iu locating and mapping the
international boundary along the St.
Clair river. From this some of o
Amerman neighbors infer that Canoe
will endeavor to interfere with America
navigation if Washington begins to harass
Canadian lake vessels. But nobody in
Canada thinks such Retaliation would be
proper. Tim ease is not one in which we
could better our position by inflicting
loss on oar neighbors. If a man ham-
strings your horse you cannot decently
hamstring his for revenge. If Washing -
,ton strikes at Canada unjustly the dig-
nified and Christian and profitable course
for Canada will be, strikrs no foul blow
in return. However, it is improbable
that there will be any Retaliation. Now
that our neighbors have got over their
election fever they will surely recognize
that their duty is to negotiate fairly for a
settlement of international disputes.

halving mixed some black oats into a bag
of barley that John Potter had on exhibi-
tioo. John pleaded not guilty, but the
directors considered they had evidence
sufficient to warrant them in withholding
the prizes he had won. It was a despio
ably mean trick to clO, and if Barr was
guilty he may feel thankful that he was
let off so leniently, Suspension from the
society would have been the proper
punishment.

those Ladies who have not yet made their

she begs to return every Lady her sincere
thanks.
