A LARGE and enthusiastic meeting was held at Listowel on Friday for the pin -prise of -discussing the subject of railway connection with To. ento by the narrovt guage. - The object of the me ting evaa to take the preliminary step towards eplist- - Mg the co-operation of the Directors of the Tor- onto, Grey and Bruce Railway. It was clearly shown that a slight divergence from the route to Kiecardine, already under consideration. so as to touch at Listowel, would be of immense advan- tage to the business Of the road, that it .would only involve an addition of about three miles to the entire length of the road; that this would be fully counterbalanced by the superior top- ography of the country.; and that the business would- thereby be largely increased. A commit tee was appointed to confer with other municia palities interested, and D. D. Hay was atithotized to proceedto Toronto to lay the /natter before the Directors. The people of Listowel are in earnest in this matter. . LECTURE. —On Tuesday evening, a large -aud- ience assembled, at the M. E.

Under this beading; and over the sianature of "'Justice," 1 find•propounded, in the last issue orthe EXPOSITOR, a series of questions on the re- lative position of Clergymen's Wives, and the Clergyman's Parishoners„ What has induced .fustiee" to put these questions may-, or may not, be correctly -eininised, but his phra: eology helps us to the true cause and. unmistakably indi- cates thathe is an Episcopalian, and the very rid - turas conclusion must be deduced, that it is an Episcopal. Clergyman's Wife's position that he has undertaken to define. How well he bag eluci- dated the question I must 4eave the readers of theTherontron to decide. " What is the position of a 'Clergyman's Wife' This a suit* and easily answered question, but 1 decidedly object to the definition given by "Justice" 1 will ask him to turn to the itth fthap. of Matthew; read it, and then answer the question M his former words if hie can. He will learn. there, I hope not for the firs:, t Me; that the ser- vant who received the five talents was expected to make a richer sum than he who received but two. H. will also learn the rewards given to the faith- ful arid unfaithful servant. I -claim that in becoming a Clergymans' Wife she shares in the talents. given to her husband, and her position, as such, gives her the favourable opportunities to improve timee talents, and, to, reap the rich rewards of the faithful servant. - As to the duties of a Clergyman's Wife to her hug- band'a parishouers I hold that.sheassuines a posi- tion of responaibility, it not directly at least in- directly. to becoming his wife she takes a posi- tion th-at must be used for good or evil ;—She ctimot devote her energies to the frivolities of the world, and ignore all interest in parrochial mat- ters w;thout dim.niihing her hutbands usefulness, and thus using her position to the injury of his Church and the souls of his congregation. 1 nd I maintain that as such she has a claim on the parishoners of her husband,not possessed in a like degree by any other woman M the congrega- tion andwhen deserved, theseclaims aremet cheer- fully and gladly by those who have a, love of what is right and just in their hearts, a friendly and effectionate sympathy in her sorrows and joys. • t s • But Juttice" argues that a Clergyman's ;Wife is a nonentity, a being who has no mterest in the parish, and the parish no interest in her, that the -skirts of her husband will effectualy over her sins tat,doing things whinh we Ought net to do and leavin g mid one, those things which we ought to do.' I cannot -Spate time to take up all the argu-- mesits, of "Justice." In fact many, from their childishness are uot worthy of notice, and others from their obtuseness are beyond.my comprehen- sion. I will pass on to the duty of a Clergy- man's Wife to. set a good example in all things, and as .“ Justice" denies the iauht of the parish to kok to her for a good example, f ask him to read the ist Chap. Paul's Epistle to Timothy, and answer why certain qualifications are there set forth, if not for the guidance of those who become Clergymen's Wives, to the end that they may be looked up to as examples of all that is pure and, goodin placing her in this light I do riot ignore the fact that all women are equally instructed in the eourse to walk in order that they may be proper examples -and teachers of the youth. But here again, I affirm that the Clergyman's Wife's position riper; her above her sisters, I should say that their relative positions are similar to the two servants in the parable of the talents, and well will it be for them if the Lord, shall say at his coining, • Well done thou 'good and faithful servant enter thou into the joy of thy Lord."
