Mr. Mackenzie hastendered the resig- nation of his Government to His Ex- cellency, and. the Governor-General has called upon Sir John A. Macdonald to form a new Government.• Mr. Mac- kenzie how holds office only: until his sncclessors. are appointed. • Ce tre EEuron-Reform Con- vention. The Convention held in Seeforth yes- terday to consider the retirement of Mr. Horton and. the pomination of Mr: Cartwrightwas the largest meeting of the kind ever held. in the Riding. The meeting wao called for the Town Hall, blit'it Vas deemed too small to accom- modate the _large assemblage, and an adjournment was made to Cardno's Hail. We have not time this week to do more then briefly give the result. Mr. Horton very fully explained to the Convention his petition. The Contrail- . tion unanimously expressed themselves satisfied with his emplane Um] s ,consen ted to his withdrawal, and nominated Mr. Cartwright in his stead. Should there be a contest, it will be short and. •sweet, and it ,beh.oves our friends to be at :week at once. In respect to Mr.. Horton we have only time to say that he ea,categ his po- sition without fee or reward. He asked nothing, he has been promised nothing, and he will receifre nothing. The only means by which he could vacate .his position was to be appeined to an office. The appointment causes a vacancy. In order 'to overcome this difficulty he has been appointed. to a clerkship in One of the departments in Ottawa. It is heed- less to say that he will never occupy the positionbut thati,liewill resign it agein:so Soon as the provisions of the law 'hese been complied with. His naagnaniteous 'and generous conduct justly entitle hirct • to the hearty vote of thanks teudereI him by the Con.veiltion. His is an act Inch has raised him inestimmbly in the es- teem pf his friends, and they will not soon forget his magnanimo is, eelf-sac- rificing and. patriotic -conduet. Mr. Cartwright will be in: the riding et once, end will proceed with his can- - , 'MSS. At the meeting excellent and stirring addresses were delivered by Mr. Patter- son, M. P. of South Brant Mr. M. C. • :4 Cameron, of Goderich, and others. The meeting closed by passing a vote strong- ly eapressive of continued confidence iu Mr. Mackenzie as leader of the Refonx• i peaty. inent room in their house, night after night, and none dare say to them nay. This sort of thing should be frowned. down by respe table people. The au- thorities shout be required to enforce the laws of th land. against 'Soh and poor alike. oat racing may be a very interesting an enjoyable sport, both to participants d. spectators, but if it cannot be con noted without being as - sedated with pen, wholesale gambling, not only in th immediate scene of the race, but thr ughout every city, town and hamlet in theland, the fewer races, and the less e couragement those that do take plaee receive from the public and the prehs, the better. Gambling in High Pla4s. PIOSO W110 Ma, 111 the daily papers, the reports of the proceedings at the re- cent boat race in Montreal, must have been somewhat astonished that in an enlightened city, in the metropolis- of the Dominion, and in broad day light, -as it were, gambling of the very worst deseripan was not only permitted by the anthdrities, but was actually corn - Mended by the Press. Thousands of dollars were wagered on the result of the race, .aud the wagers and tie names of the wagerers were published to the world. Yet we did not hear of a single attempt being made to enforce the tette prohibiting tine dangerous and vicious praetice. Pools were sold day after day and night after night, in the principal hotel of the city. The fact was report- ed through the prase, and must have beau patent to every authority of the city, and still no attempt was made to eufbrce the law prohibiting " pool" :selling, or to punisb, these who BO glar- ingly violated it. Why all this laxuess ? Is it because those who vieleted the law were euebled by their wealth to do so oti a large scale? Has it come to this in Canada that the- ricb ca,u with iteepueity violate laws which are rigidly enforeed against th,e poor? 11 not, the lea shouli be enforced againstall of: • fenders, -without respect to the degree of the offence or the stauding or posi- tion 'of the 'offender. Let a common eitizon wager a twenty-five cent piece on a game ,of cards, and the offender is fined or imprisoned; but the wealthy nabobs of Montreal and Toronto can stake their thousands of dollars dn a boat race, and their action is winked at by the authorities and commended: by the peess af these cities. If an ordinary hotel keeper is lueown to have permit- ted the shaking of a dice box in his ho- tel for a ten. cent drink, he is heavily fined, but the proprietors of the largest hotel in Montreal permit gambling for thousands of dollars in the most prom- Terr It seems th Goderieh.

Time having passed, and • no sign of Mr: G-reenway falling heir to the position, t ey must 'needs find an- other incumb nt. We are now gravely informed that Mr. Horton is to get this muchtalked f berth, as a, reward. for his patriotic a tion in masking room for Mr. Cartwrig t Even the great Mail has not felt i beneath its dignityto give currency o this lie. It has not only uttered a d repeated the fables,' tion, -but in th overbearing and. dietae torial tone wh ch it has assumed since the elections, :t solemnly_ assuresr Mr. Horton that i he receives the appoint- ment, it will •e cancelled as soon as Sir John seize the reins of power. The organ might have saved itself all this trouble. It i a fact, end notwith- standing the owlings of the Opposi-, tion press re pecting this office, they can not, and t ey dare not, attempt to dispute the statement, that such a thing as sup reinitiating the present Collector of C 'stems at Goderich, and appointing e'ther of the gentlemen named. was n ver even contemplated by the Geyer= nt. On the contrary, some months ago, vhen the present official matte applic tion for superannuation, Mr. Mackenzi emphatically and per- emptorily re sod to grant the applica- tion. He co 'sidered him quite com- petent to dis harge the duties of his office, and h declined saddling the country with he cost of his superannu- ation so lag s he considered him able to efficiently • the office.
