Den• man• fi lie 11t55c15 1,7.11).4Y, 0071. 25, 1889. Tex writ for the election in West Lambtun to fill the vacancy in the On. tario Legislature caused by the death of the late Hon. Timothy Blair Pardee has been issued. The nomination takes place on the 11th November, and the electron on the 18th, a week later. Tim 150th anniversary of the estab- lishment of Methodism on this continent will be celebrated on Oct. 25th. John 'Wesley began his agitation for "a deeper spiritual life" in 1720, and five years later he and his brother Charles paid a brief visit to Georgia, which became the home of the Methodist Church on this continent. Loan Antisrnoxe's new explosive "cor- dite" is likely to prove a more valuable invention than the "smokeless powder" just adopted for use by the German and Italian armies. The experiments made with cordite by the British government have convinced military men that the new explosive ought to be adopted for both turnery and small arms. It is ab- solutely smokeless, while the so called "smokeless powder" is not. There is reason to believe that cordite will work a revolution in modern armament, and that quick firing guns which, with ordin. ary powder, are of little use after the gunners are enveloped in a suffocating cloud of smoke, will become powerful weapons of destruction in the future. Tann is a clause in the Dominion customs act which prohibits the im- portation of oleomargarine or artificial butter into Canada, but nevertheless the U. S. customs show that oleomargarine to the value of $43,086 wa't shipped into Canada from the United Statee during the eight months ending ou the 31st of August last, an inorease,of $18,431 as compared with the figures of the comes. ponding month of the preceding year. Thus we find that the business of im- porting oleomargarine is not only carried on but that it is growing. And the stuff must have been sold and shipped as oleo- margarine, as otherwise it would not ap- pear as such in the United States cus- toms returns. Damao the first nine months of this year three thousand seven hundred and fifty miles of new railway were laid on this continent. At the same rate it may reach five thousand miles at the end of the year, while the average for the last ten years has been no lead than seven thousand eix hundred miles. There must be some limit to the railway needs of a country, and it seems as though the supply was beginning to overtake the de. mond. As capital is more abundant and cheaper than ever, it will need either to find new kinds of improvements to lavish itself upon or find new continents in which to build railways. Africa and Asia must soon open their wilderness to the chariot of civilization with its iron horse. Bove and girls in any city are very much exposed to evil influences, espec- ially those who receive little or no at- tention from their own home, and the re- sult is they often grow up to he the "toughs" of the city. A movement ie on foot in Toronto to license newsboys and prohibit girls from selling papers on the streets. Two years ago an act was passed by the Ontario Legislature em. powering the police board of the city to deal with the subject. The Humane so. ciety have drawn up a bylaw which pro. hibite any child under eight years of age telling papers on the streets, and re- quires that each boy must have hie name registered at the police oMoe and receive a badge, to be worn in a conspicuous place. Tbie is a step in advance and other Canadian cities should adopt simil• er regulations. Tina Marquis of Defferin, whose health is reported to be muoh improved since he arrived in Ireland on a visit to his emcee. tral home, will resume hie dutiee as Brit. ish Ambassador at the Court of Italy early next month. Lord Dufferin has been in the service of the Crown in dif- ferent capacities, eines the year 1855, when he was attached to Earl Russell's epecial mission to Vienna, In 1800 he Me sent to Syria by Lord Palmerston's Government as a commissioner to en. .quire into the maesaore of the Christians in that country. For hie eervioes in that capacity he was created a 71. C. 13. IIo wag Under Secretary of Mato for War from '1''abrnary, 18(16, to Juno, 18(17; Chancellor of the 1)nehy of Lancaster from December, 180s, to April, 1872 ; GOI•efnol'.Oettet`al of Canada from Tote, 1872, bo Outober, 1878; British Ambos'lt seder to tineaia from 1878 to 1881, when he was seat in 0 similar capacity to Tur. key, Some time was spent in Egypt on a special mission. In 1885 he succeeded Lord Ripon as Governor. Gmoral of India, whitposition 1 111 !e'"' d. a resigned in 1888, when Ire was appointed to Rome. On his re- turn to England from India Lord Daf- ferin wee created Martinis of Dufforin and Ave. He still oontinuee to take great interest in the affairs of Canada, and never allows a public opportunity to pass without expressing kindly sentiments re- garding the Dominion and its people, Mn. WANNAioANL+a, the Postmaster General of the United States, 1s a praoti. sal, level-headed old gentleman and we are not at all surprised that he has in view a reform that affects the ocean mail service, and will require a postal treaty with Great Britain to carry it into ef- fect. The department has authority ander the general law to negotiate such a treaty with the approval of the presi- dent and without the consent of the Senate. The idea ie to introduce the postal car system of distributing mails on the Ocean steamers. Sometimes the White Star, Inman or Cunard steamers, arrive with 200,000 pieees of mail mat- ter, which necessarily takes a lona; time rehandlea iter arriving in New York. Six or seven postal clerks, or even a lees number, might be able to assort the whole of it during the voyage, so that upon the arrival of the vessel in New York the entire mail could be forwarded to its destination without delay. It would be money in the pockets of the people of this Dominion if we could in- duce our Postmaster General to go to Washington and take a few lessons. Ile would likely give us a 2 -cent postage rate for letters on his return, if nothing else. Tim annual meeting of the Ontario Branch of the Dominion Alliance will be held at Toronto, commencing on Wed. nesday, December lith, 1880. The cir- cular to hand goes on to say : "It is con- fidently anticipated that this will be one of the largest and most influential gath• erings of the kind yet held, and an earn- est appeal is hereby made for the at- tendance and oo-operation of all in syn.), pathy with our movement, and its ob- jects. Among the many important questions to Cottle up for discussion at this meeting, there are two, to which we call special attention, (1) The securing of immediate prohibitory legislation, as far as the name is within the competence of the Local Legislature. There is no reason why we should not, at once, have a comprehensive measure of advanced legislation on the liquor question in On- tario. Our Province has prohibitory power that has never been exercised and that might be used for further restriction or even the total prohibition, of the re- tail liquor traffic. While unfalteringly aiming at, and working toward, total national prohibition, we must not miss any opportunity of immediately miti- gating the terrible evils of (intemperance, curtailing the extent and power of the liquor traffic, and utilizing right public sentiment as fast as it is formed. A brief summary has been prepared, of leg- islative measures that would be of vast advantage to our province. It is desir- able that all these, and any others that may be edggested,should be disouesed as fully and freely as possible. (2) Elect- oral action for the securing of legislators in the favor of prohibition. The present plan of the Alliance is the organization of voters for the purpose of seeuring pro- hibitionist representatives in the Dom- inion Parliament and in our Local Leg- islature. We have already a large num. her of members who are known and avowed friends of our Cause. The vote recorded, at the last session of Parlia- ment, for immediate prohibition, was larger than any previous vote in favor of the same proposition. We ask for the support of there members, and the de- feat of those opposed to us, regardless of party. The Alliance urges every et - fort to genre the nomination by one or both parties of men who are "known and avowed" prohibitionists, and the united support of such men at the polls. Only in cases where this method fails to secure a prohibition candidate, do we urge the nomination and support of an independent prohibitionist. This broad. and important question requires the most careful consideration and the moot prudent management, Cunadia.'n TV erosees. No further cases of smallpox have oc- curred on Pelee Island. Ellery Dykemau, a yoting lad, was killed by a train at Galt Wednesday. The steamer Quinte was burned near Desoronto poet evening and four lives were lost. Mr. Bsziuet, Liberal, was elected to the Quebec Legislature in Joliette Wednesday by a majority of about 200, President Van Horne visited Owen Sound Wednesday and made arrange - Monts for the providing of more elevator and dealt facilities at that port. The university troubles in Montreal are not yet ended. Victoria students refused to listen to ketones by Laval pro- Isesore, and there was considerable ex• cftemou t, Thoro Is another railway squabble in 3V9nnipog, 0015102 from the refusal of Coo C.1',11, people to allow ears loaded with I.iesfor the Regina ((Long Lake railwaj' to be transferred. from the North+nn Net- tie troll: to their line.

Nl y At a meeting of the directors of the Central Exhibition, Guelph,it was found that the show had turned oat a tinanoial sucrose to the extent of $60. The Secretary of the Toronto, Hamil- ton and Buffalo Railway Company, hav- ing convinaod the people of Hamilton that they are sure of connection with the Vanderbilt system, the project is now booming in the Ambitious City, Brampton Banner 1 -"Nothing has happened to Mr. Bartlett's little boy who swallowed tate button hook last week. An examination of a similar button hook shows the material need is iron. The action of the fluids of the stomaoh will in time dissolve it. and unless something unforeseen occurs the lad will experience no harm from the aooident." Isaao Masters, the local represoutatfve of the South Riding of Waterloo, has already signified his intention of retiring tit the end of the next session of the Legislature, and now a rumor comes from authentic parties that E. W. B. Snider, the local member for North Waterloo, will retire in favor of his brother, Wm, Snider, a leading miller in Waterloo town, or Dr. Webb, of the same pinto. The annual report of Provincial Board ld of IIeaitU for last year, which has just bean issued, status that, abundant evid- ence him been furnished of the beneficial results ofthe diffusion of sanitary infor- mation by the. Board and the education of the people in regard to the best means of preventing or limiting the spread of epidemic contagious disease. The work of tbo organization of local health au- thorities goes bravely on. There are at present 520 local boards of health and 1150 medical health officers in Ontario. They have rare and racy tines at Petite Cote weddings nowadays, and the hero of the occasion is the ono who can knock out the most men. Monday night there was a wedding, and all went 'merry as a marriage bell' until Joseph Martin and Albert Gignae, aided by a liberal quantity of old rye, got into a controversy about some young woman, and Joseph got the worst of it. Mrs. Martin went to take her husband's pare„ when Neil Gignac, the father of Alber• t called her sundry vile names. They were all up before Magistrate Bartlett, at Windsor, on Thursday, and the two Gignaes were each fined $5 and costs. The Fall Assizes opeu at Guelph on Monday next before Justice Palcoubridge, and es they approach interest is awakened in the Harvey murder case. It is under- stood that friends in Guelph and Toronto, together with the Accountant's Society of Ontario, have supplied funds for his de- fence, The lion of defence is believed to be that the prisoner was insane when he committed the deed with whish he stands charged, and Kenneth Maclean, Guelph, and G. G. S. Lindsay, of Toronto, have been engaged working up evidence to this effect. Wtn. Lonnt, Q.C., has beau also retained as counsel for the defence. The prosecution will be in the hands of D. P. B. Johnston, the late Deputy Attorney - General. It ie said that some of the best insanity experts in Toronto and the prov- ince have been subpmned on Harvey's be- half, but whether the proseoatioo will secure expert evidence is not known. &:dugel .
