TIIOn8R is a very unsett led state of affairs in military circles in Europe just now. The feeling at present is that Russia will be bad- ly tripped up if she attempts to appropriate any more territory as a number of the other countries are determined to s eo that the balance of power is preserved. Oi1ANGlsviaLE, Palmerston and a few other places are working up an unenviable notoriety in their violence towards officers who were discharging their duties under the Scott Act. The opponents of the Act who resort to such despicable means to thwart the law are play- ing a game that will cut their own throat, figuratively speaking. Hama Rule measures will, in all probability, be the centre -piece of legislation in the British House of Parliament. A big fight is expect- ed unless the request of the Emer- ald isle is granted. The unseem- ly riots and faction fights at Bel- fast are not calculated to foster a very friendly feeling between the Protestant and his Roman Catho- lic brother and we assume that the millenium is not at hand yet. Home Rule for Ireland is a hard nut to crack and we would not be much surprised if the present government does not resign before anything important is done. The County i1Sodcl Schools, A8 a meeting of the County Board of Ex- aminers, held Saturday, Aug. 28th, 1886, the following resolutions were passed :- That the oaudidates who failed at the professional examination in 1885 beregnir- ed to attend the whole Model Sebool term of 1886. That the percentage required to obtain a certificate be the same as in 1885, viz., 40 on each subject, and 89 of the aggregate, That the practical work of the candidates be examined by the Inspoetors, and that they devote three days to eaoh Model School. That the Secretary notify the Bonrd of Trustees of each Model School, that the subjects of music, drill and oalisthenios should be taken up in the Model schools, and that papers on these subjects will be submitted to the candidates at the final examination. That for practical drawing, books four and five be completed and certified to by the Principal of eaoh Modal School as be- ing the work of the candidate. That J. It. Miller, I. P. S., having resign. ed hie position, and removed from this county since the last meeting of the Board thus severing his membership with it, we, his late colleagues, take this opportunity of bearing testimony to the industry, intelli. gence and erlciency which always Charac- terized him during the fourteen years in which he was n member of it, and in part- ing with him we express the sincere hope that in the new profession wnich he has adopted bo will meet with that encase which his diligence and perseverance so amply merit, r+ orartix EU -vision Court.

The Orangeville Post publishes the following tall yarn :-At Orange- ville, the women crusaders visited it hotel and tried by praying to induce the proprietor to close the plane. The proprietor invited the ladies to seats and asked them fo pray and ho him self offered the following prayer :- Almighty Orentor in Heaven, Thou who has made the Heaven and earth, land created man as Thine awn image es ruler of the earth. Whilst enim• ala are living on grass and water. Thou didot teach Thy servant Noah to make wine, and Thou didst pun- ish hint for making intemperate use of it. At the wedding feast of Cana, Thine own son Jesus Christ trans• formed water into wine when the juice of the grape was exhausted, that the enjoyment of the guests might not bo disturbed. The great reformer, Martin Luther, sold :- "He who does riot love wine, woman and song remains a fool all his life long." And one of the divine oom- mande of the book Thou hast given us is that men shall use a little wino for hos stomaola's sake and his often infirmities, and all great men of the earth have been drinking the wine thou,_ hast given thy children upon the earth. 0, Lord, we pray Thee have pity on the women here who are not grateful of Thy , gifts, who want to make Thy children like the beasts of the field and to compel them to drink water like an ox, while they dress extravagantly and lead their husbands by other extravagances not tending to our well-being to bankrupt- cy, depriving them of the pleasures of this world, yes, driving them to suteide. 0, Lord, have mercy upon these ladies, look upon them, they wear not even the color of the face which Thou hast given them, but they are sinning against Thee, and not content with nature, paint their faces. 0, Lord, Thou const also per- ceive that their figure is not ea Thou hest made it, but they wear lumps on their hacks like camels ; Thou seest, 0, Lord, that their toad-drees con- sists of false hair, and when they open their mouth, Thou seest their false teeth . and, 0, Lord, just make a note of their spiral spring and their cotton batting contrivances they wear In their bosoms, for no other purpose than to matte themselves voluptuous and to excite in man a mnoh worse passion than the use of wino, and fur the same reason they have a number six foot pinched in a number three shoe, and a number forty walet squeezed into a number seventeen corset. 0, Lord, these women want men who patiently accept all this without using the power Thou hast given man that all women shall bo subject to man. They will not bear the burdens of married life and obey Thy commands to multiply and re- plenish the earth, but they aro too lazy to raise their children, and. 0, Loan 1 Thou knowest the crimes they commit. 0, Lord, have mercy upon thorn, and take them back int." Thy bosom, take folly out of their Hearts, give them common sense that they may see their own foolishness, and grant that they may be good and worthy citizens of our beloved town of Orangeville. 0, Lord, we thank Thee for all the bloesinge bestowed upon us, and to deliver us from all evil, especially hypocritical, lying women, and Thine shall be the praise for over and ever, Amen.
