Mr Macpherson thought better commu- nication with the North West should be -established than that contemplated last _session. Mr Cainpbeil defended the Government. The Bill relating to the Coasting Trade was read a third time; as was also the 11s/reties Bill. The debate on the address beino over, -the House_ of Commone has at rast got -.fairly to work. A considerable amount of formal bush mess was got :through yesterday' afternoon, very-litfle of it has any ispecial impor- htnce. The Government intimated their intention to .fulhl the pledge given last session with reference -to a bill to limit the rate of interest, the question being for the present left open whether such measure could constitutionally- originate in the oenate.

As the sureties were required, by the justices, to be pos- sessed of real estate the court was further adjourned to allow the defence to justify; some of the juatieese, with extraordinary leniency, accompanying the accused to Seaforth for this purpose.

W e think we have never been behind in enterprise, and if we have ever failed, the Expositor will please point out when and how. The Expositor descends to the, Dan Moronism of alluding, to what he terms our " limited circulation." Now, on that point we are ieuite satisfied with the ver- dict of our adieetiers, to whom and to all others our bona fide lists are at all times open for inspection. The Expositor hints thee our "conscien- tutus scruples " would nelt., allow us to charge more than e1.00 for the Weelheely Signal -it not being worth moreein his opinion, than that sum. It ill beeerees the Expositor man, after having chiselled the County out of a large sum of money to talk about conscientious smtiles Scru- ples, forsooth ! Let him be man enough to come out and answer the distinct charge of lieculation we have fastened upon him, and from which he cannot escape, wriggle as he may. The fact of the matter is that the Ex- positor attacks us becanse we think fit to compete with city weeklies merely for the reason that he cannot get out of a dirty scrape which we would not be involved in for a good deal. Our " conscientious scrupples" have prompted us to do the Cuenty pnntirig hones-tly for a long series of years ; let the Seaforth egolist say as ranch, if he care,' althengh he has only done the work for one year ! TOWN _C_OUNCIL. The Council met on Friday, 25th Feb- ruary. Present ; the Mayor in the chair, Messrs. Passmore, Gibbons, Smith, Wat- son, Seymour, Sinclair, Detlor, MeKay, Gardiner, Runciman, Howell and Clifford. Minutes of laet regular and special meet- ings approved and signed, The account of G. N. Davis, for 812 16; was ordered to be paid. A petition of Ratepayers for an effcient system of drainage -the main sewer to be built ip almost the sameturse recently recommended en thq SIGNAL— was read. Moved by Mr. Runciman, sec- onded by Mr. Gibbon.s, That it be received and filed. Petition of David Reid for re- mission of $2.00 dog -tax. -Granted. Pe- Iiition of seventy-nine ratepeyers and resi- dents, to refuse saloon -licenses, and to se- cure the carrying out of the law with refe- rencetotaverns and grocery stores was read. Moved by Mr. Seymour, seconded by Mr. Watson, That the petition be laid over until the reading of the By-law referring to licenses. Accounts of J. B. Gordon 828.00, and Mr. H Horton $32.6e,referred to Finance Committee. Montreal tele- graph account 70 cents ordered to be paid. The Auditors reported' the hooke and ace counts for 1869 correct, and submitted a statemeat relative to the Northern Gravel Road. The report was referred • to Finance Committee. D. Fer2usoo's ac- count for $5.00, for relief orderi, ordered to be paid. Sheppard and Strachan's ac- count for $a7.05,ordered to be paid. Mrs. H. Reed's account for 622 00 for Henry Price's board' and washing was ordered to be paid if 620.00 would be accepted. Ap- plications for tavern licenses vrere receiv- ed from Elijah Martin, H. Reed, G. Gra- ham, E-Hosker, Jno. Craig,, J. J. Wright, T. Dark, Wilkine & Calloway, H. Martin, and W. J. Johnson. Applications for shop licenses were received from Jamns Hays, Parker -& Cattle, Sheppard & Straehap, W. Kerr, D. Ferguson, John Mitchell, H. Horton and G, Grant. Apo plications forsaloon licenses were received from Mr. McMurchie John McPherson end. E.

Messrs. Gtbbons and Clifford sup- ported the spirit of the petition previonsly received. Mr. Sinclair woUld have voted against saloon licenses at the time they were first allowed. Mr. Watson consider- ed a proh hitory law increased drunkenness. He knew beeanse he saw it did so in the States. Mr. SeymOur was in favour of licensing saloons, or as they -are and ought to be called, houses af entertainment. Mr. Horton was in ',favour of saloons, . for the sake of doing justice to those whom theCouncil hadencouraged tospend money in the business. alr..Smith would vote By all means ; let's have the truth ab- out this as well as of all other ntatters. That is what is wanted. So saith the Free Press of the 28th. What amount of consistency there is in the statement of our slash -away contemporary nuty be inferred from the following from the Te/egraph of the 26th. Hew' the Free Press failed to notice it is best known to its editors :- 'The report that one of the writers for the Globe has approached Mr. Sanclfield Mee- donald with political proposals is, we hear, untrue. The writer in question had not spoken to Mr. S. Macdonald -up to Wednes- day -evening ; and it is presumed that his mission was connected with one of the Narro.vgauge railways :-the directors of which claim a public land grant from the Ontario Government of which Mr. Meedonald is the head." The Globe, we may add, emphatically denies the charge. Truly toryism must be getting shaky when such tneans have to be adopted. TOWN DRAINAGE.—The influential petition, for an efficient system of Town drainage, presented to the Municipal Council at its last meeting, was ordered, by that body, to be rezeived and fylect. The ratepayers will eXcuse their representatives for not, on account of the press of business then behire them, taking the important subject iuto consideretion at thatparticular meeting. The Council will do well, how- . ever, to remember that the publie will not allow this petition to be qiiietly shelyed, but will expect it to be discussed at the. earliest possible opportunity. The first point to be s.ttled is whether or not the Council is in a position to take action and to what extent ; to ascertain the views of proprietors and to what amount a bonus towards the undertaking cnuld be secured. If the Council were to resolve to, one year, build the „ sewer half -way and, next year, the other half, we believe, with the bonuses that proprietors would grant, an assessment of cent on the dollar, each year, would cover the outlay and not be gredged by the ratepayers. Let the Council take action in a public-spirited manner. The Seaforth Expositor says the Star is compelled to come down to the dollar principle in order to induce respectable people to take it. The Star is nd doubt able to take its own part, but we must say that such language as that we have quoted is most coetemptible. CoMPLLMENTARY. -The' London Free Press -says of Albert Edward, heir -apparent to the Throne of Great -Britain :-"The most recent incident that has contributed to tho unpopularity of the burly, thick - necked young man whom .we in Canada recollect as a pale, modeoeflooking youth, has arisen from the divorce case of Mord- aunt vs Mordaunt." We congratulate many of our brethren of the Press -from the Telegraph down to the Mitchell Advo- cate upon the high nueral tone they have adopted of late. . GREAFROBBERIES IN Tonozero.—Whole- sale houses on Front street Toronto have, during winter, been missing quantities of goods which they could nol trace, A quarrel • between two carpenters, named Kingswood aud Purdy has brought the alair to light.

DE SALABERRY AND THE CONVENTION. . I will gtve you one instance, out of many, of De Salaberry's guilty conduct. At the' Convention now in session, and which is composed of twenty delegates from the French and twenty from the English, the forther uf whom have decidedly the advantage, as they act in concert, and ex- hibit general sharppess ; while the English are as stupid as mules and are divided among themselves-andi by this advantege the French carried every article which they wished to have in the Bill of Rights, except one. _ VoTING QUALIFICATION. Is a sample of the rest, give volt one of the demands in the Bill. It is that all natives. have a right to vote at the age of twenty-one, while all Canadians must have lived in the Settlement three years and have become householders before they can obtain the seine privilege ; and in the face of this De Salaberry esays they have not demanded enough -certainly a very foie Commissioner ! THIBEAULT'S MACHINATIONS. If possible, Father Thibeault has proved hineself worse than Riel, and 1 will give you a sample of his treachery. Nearly three weeks ago some of Riel's men bad suspicions that Riel, was working, net for their rights, but to bring about annekation to the Statee, and went to Smith, the only true man that the Government have sent here as yet, and called a mass meeting of all the people, both English and French, for the following Tuesday. the mean time, the French, who had left Riel, put a guard of forty men over Mr. Smith's papers, for the purpose of protecting them from Riel, who was desirous of destroying them. This guard remained with the papers till they were read to the meeting on Tuesday, when it was decided to call a convention to frame the Bill of Rights ; but on thenight before the meetine Father Thibeault, accompanied by FatherrLestanc endeavored to obtain poesession of the papers by entreaty and threats ; but with- out success, BIEL'S FORCE AND POSITION Riel's fords is considerably weakened by the desertion of the forty men referred to, as they were Chief of the party, and with- drew a large namber of men from Riel, who instead of being able to raise six hund- red men, can barelY get together two hundred ; but those who have remained with him are regular fa,natics and will fight to the bat ; while it is doubtful if the others will fight agaiost their own relations besides he has, the best arms, all the can- non, aad is in a fortified place. -Telegraph A Fame ACCIDENT -A man named Alex.

An Elighsh Romance. — A genial American writer who is saun- tering about the South -Coast of England, relates the following little story in the last issue of Harper's Magazine :- " As I went on westward I became aware, by the striking appearance of a fisherman in the water, that I -was approaching the village whose crustacean fame has given it the name of Crab --Niton. A famous eld place it must have been in its time, for there are old Celtic mounds around ite and an ancient road along which, the antique, - Hans say, the Pheenicians used to carry the tin they got from Cornwall, while as yet the island was joined to the main land, It is now a pleasant enough fishing hamlet, with some pretty villas oo the down, at whose foot it lies. The village. is not without its romance. -Early in life thelittle erphan boy named EIobson was -brought here from Bonchurch, where he was born, and apprenticedeto a tailor. He did well, end, the tailor aud his 'wife became very fond of him. as also did the neighbors. - In fact, "Hobby" was a general favorite, was particularly good. at singing, and of- ten went out with the fishermen in their boats. Great, therefore, was the grief whenhe was one day missed; after a time his hat was washed up on shore, and a. boat in which he was wont to paddle was picked up off the. coast empty. Hobby was given up as lost. The fact was, how- ever, that the lad, as he sat- with his nee- dle; had seen the English squadron sailing majestically in the Channel, and- it was too much for him, An hour or so later, the admiral of the sgnadron was called to observe a bov in a boat, making for his ship. the boy was Hobby, who entreated to be taken on beard. His request was granted, the boat wee cut adrift, and the boy was teken up with noloss.except that of his.hat, which the wind had blown off Acton after he had left shore. The squadron was going to fight for Queen Anne against the French fleet, with which it soon was engaged. - After two hours of desperate fighting, the young volunteer naively asked a sailor for what object the fleets were contending.- " Do yoo, see that rig there ? ' said the sailor, pointing to the French flag on the flag -ship. "Ay," said Hobby. "That must come down." " Oh 1" said the boy, "if that's all, Ill seewhat Icon do." The ships of the two admirals were touching their yard -arms, and enveloped in smoke. The boy climbed the shrouds, groised the , main -yard,_ and, under the cover of smoke, actually semed . the ilag, and returned to the deck. The disappearance of the flag was soon 'noticed; the British cried " Vic- toria" the French thought that their offi- cers had surrendered, and in theoonfusion the 'British boarded the hostile ship and captured it. -The boy unconscious of whit he had done,. was found by the admiral with the French flag round his arm and was- at once promoted. From that time he rose rapidly to- be Admiral Hobson. - Of course, the humble folk of little Crab- -. Niton knew nothing of all this, -and the tragical tradition of the little 'prentie,e was almost forgotten when, one daye the paid a visit' to the plaee. ej They went knighted adnikal and some other officers] straight to the house of the now aged tenor and his wife, and askdd for dinner.

AT a meeting of the 1:Nlatural History Society of Glasgow, held on Tuesday of last week, John Gilmour, Esq., read a paper 'On the Introduction of the Wild Turkey (Meleagris Gallopavo) into Ar- gyllshire.'
