General Middleton has admitted that
lie approteiated a lot of furs belonging
:,to a settler, during the Northwest re -
',bey on campaign, thinking he had a
erfect right to them. It may not have
been stealing exactly, but if a poor man
,,.had done the same thing, that would be
the word that would have described it.
At Ottawa, last Wednesday night,
Hon John Carling was trying to pass
through the house several items of ex-
pense upon which the Liberals wanted
information before passing. This Mr
,iiarling refused to give,and sooner than
allow them to pass, the Liberals fought
the point all night long. In the morn-
ing when Sir John returned and found
the hovse still in session, he compelled
his supporter to give way and the Lib-
erals carried their point.

Respecting ;immigration to Canada
'last year,Hon Mr Carling,in the House
gave -the following figures, which are
only approximate; Ontario, 30,000 ;
Quebec, 26,000 ; Manitoba, 13;000 ;
North-West, 11000; British Columbia,
-800; Nova Scotia, 3800; -New Brunswick,
6000; Prince Edward Island, 400.
. These figures came in for objections, no
less than (thirteen Liberals members
attempting to speak at the same time.
i• Every speaker alleged that the figures
were misleading and claimed that no
,such number landed in any of theprov-
,inoea named.
Mr Davin, one of the strongest sup-
porters of the Dominion Government is
beginning to realize the present ministry
is not all it might be. Here are some
,of his remarks during a debate in the
House last week:
We have at the Lead of the Govern-
ment a grant manager of men, but in
some :expects not a statesnam. We
h"..ce one fine brain in the Administra-
tion. * * * At the present moment
we have a' 3abinet of antiquilies. I
don't care how wide my statement is
circulated, it must come out. We want
a strong Government, and we can save
two millions of dollars a year if we fall
back on the true principle of putting
capable men in office. It is a thing not
to be stood any longer. Itis unbearable
What have we got at the present mo-
ment? It is a Government by Deputy
Ministers. This county is not going
to tolerate a Government with simply
animal magnetism at its head and
without any brains in the remainder
of the body."
es
The Provincial Finances.
The Mail has made an honest at -
temp t to get at the facts concerning the
finances of the province. During the
present session the Government eat and
the
Opposition have had more than one
discussion uponon this subject,
the
Gov-
ernment being disposed to magnify
and
the Opposition to minimise the achieve-
ments of the various treasurers since
Mr Mowat took office in 1873. To the
best of our belief the surplus on Decem.
ber, 31, 1873, amounted to nearly five
millions.
Since 1878 the Government has
spent a very liberal sum on services of
vital interest to the province, over $12,-
000,000.
The present surplus is placed by
Treasurer Ross at $6,427,000. A de-
tailed account was published the other
day. The can be no doubt that this is
a correct statement of the surplus as it
actually exists. Oonsidenng the large
payments on capital account that have
been made since then, that is a very
handsome nest -egg. The Opposition
knows its own business best, but in our
opinion it has nothing to gain by as-
sailing the financial management of
the province nnder Mr Mowat. That
is not the weak spot in his armour. -

formerly one of hie clients. A dispute
arising in regardto legal charges the

and was in the habit of shouting out to
Mr Cameron on the street, "You are

other remarks of this kind, and on one
occasion attracted quite a crowd to the

THE WHITELY CASE.
It was expected that this case would
come on early in the sitting, as the
jury returned a true bill, but it was not
taken up until yesterday (Thursday)
morning. The reason for the delay was
that Mr Blackstook, lawyer for the de-
fence, found that he could not possibly
be present, and at the last moment the
case for the -defendant was placed in
the hands of Mr Cameron, who asked
for a short time in which to prepare it.
This was granted, and when the other
business of the court was concluded
early Wednesday afternoon, an adjour-
ment was made until Thursday morn-
ing. Prisoner is not being tried on the
straight charge of murder, that being
the verdict of the coroner's inquest, but
on the charge of "administering poison
with intent to murder."

public school examination last Thurs-
day, a large number of visitors were
present, both young and old being
well represented. The classes were
examined by Messrs Smith, Sloan

of proficiency in the different subjects
which reflected great credit upon
both pupils and teacher. After the
examination Mr Brydon was called

largely attended, but it is said that very
few sales were made. The apeeial ser-
vices have closed with an addition of
about 100 to the membership of the
church ; the 1 tdy evangelists, Misses
Hall, did good work, as did also the
brethern from other cercuits ; the sum
of $25 each was paid to the evangelists,
and their tickets bought for them to
Guelph; at Sunshine appointment,
where they also labored, they were paid
$15 each; the service in the Methodist
church, on Sunday evening, was one
that will long be remembered, and a
very pleasing feature of it was to find
a prominent member of the Episcopal
church, Mr Frank Metoalf, publicly
eulogizing the good work that had been
done, his words of encouragement and
approval finding a response in rely
heart.

Mies Trueman presided at tha organ,
and Rev Dr Ure occupied the chair.
Joe Hess sat there with his huge pro-
portions showing that he enjoyed life,
and was ready to give knock down
arguments, and back them up with
his ponderous fists. Mr Halls ably
led the band; Mr Belcher sang "Only

ardson opened the meeting with
prayer. The chairman introduced
the speaker, who commenced by ins-
' pioriug God to create in him a clean

lightning (?) trip from Stratford to
Goderich. He expressed surprise at
the multitude present; it was the
largest audience he ever had, and the
best singing and music he ever hoard .
Some came here no doubt, said the
energetic orator, out of curicsity to
see Joe Hess, who never went to
school six months in his life, could
not read five years ago, fought in the
prize ring, and kept a gambling sa-
loon. Stand up now, and look at me.
Some people ask Joe if he does not
uie notes when he speaks, but when a
m in is full it must come out said he: -
I hate the rum traffi?; I love the salcon
keepers; it is not their fault. The
liquor traffic is sustained by your cus-
tom. and legalized by your vote. The
rum traffic is a sin, and it is a sin to
legalize or license the traffic. It is
leading yourselves and your dear
children off the tramp down to hell.
Sam Jones says the rum traffic ought
to be in hell. Hell is too good for
the rum traffic, it ought to be forty
miles beyond. The merchant washes
his window and displays his goods,
the saloon keeper says paint my win-
dows, and you respectable tipplers
hide behind my screen. I was a sa-
loon keeper, and I knew my custom-
er was more respectable when he
esp
came in than when he went out at
the back door, to abuse his family.
I can say, "God help you, Joe Hess,
for the liquor you have sold to the
parents of poor families." I come to
you, Goderich people, with a hatred
of the accursed traffic. Do not blame
the saloon keeper, if you did not want
rum he would not sell it; the demand
causes the supply. Woe unto them
that continue to drink till wine in-
flame him. I drank until I bad
pains in my head and stomach, and
RR empty pocket ; now, my head is
clear, a beefsteak in my stomach and
cash in my pocket. Rumsellers give
you no equivalent for your money,
but a shanty on your eye, a blasted
reputation, or a knife in your body.
I appeal to hotel keepers, if present,
to reflect on the enormity of the sins
they are producing by the rum traffic,
that God would hold them respon-
sible for the actions, sins and curses
that followed their nefarious business.
It is you electors and ,members of
parliament who are the guilty parties
to the sin of drunkenness, making
revenue out of sin. Look att the
army of drunkards tramping down to
hell; you may not save them, but save
your children, save your boys and
girls. The meeting was brought to a
close by Mr Sanders singing, "Where
is my wandering boy to -night," and
the audience si..ging the National
Anthem. Then commenced hand
shaking with the speaker, who re-
turned a grip that might be felt.
Tuesday night. -Never was a bar-
rel packed tighter with herrings than
Victoria Hall was, on Tuesday night,
city fathers and country cousins,
anxious to hear fighting Joe Hess.
The band, singers, and representa-
tatives were present, the same as the
night previous. Rev Mr Richardson
occupied the chair. The meeting
opened with delightful singing, and
Mr Belcher sang "Work, for the
night is coming." The speaker said
he hoped he did not offend them last
night by his slang, but during the
day he was walking behind two ladies,
and overheard one ask the other if
she heard Joe Hess speak last night.
"I heard him, but be uses such slang;
he takes the cake all the same." -
Here are ladies condemning slang on
the platform, and using it on the
street, but you must know I was raised
in a saloon. Another lady said last
night, about shaking hands with me,
"He squeezed my hands." What
else should I squeeze, her Leet? When
I shook hands I put my heart into it,
not as if I was handling a snake. I
was living in Buffalo in 1851, my fa
ther would send me into the cellar
tor something, and I would sip the
cider, cider made of rotten apples and
orms. Fathers, do not set your sons

inconsistent to caution your eons
against drinking, while you drink
yourselves. I went to Buffalo to
learn the cooper's trade, and while
there became a corner loafer and
toper. I would not lodge in a tem-
perance house, they were not high
toned enough for me. I became a
sailor, and while sleeping off a drunk-
en debauch my new clothes were ex-
changed for old fragments of clothing.
I lost my situation, was disowned by
my father, and became a prize fighter.
Goderich is reported as the most
beautiful town in Ontario; fathers
and mothers rise up in your might
and drive the demon's traffic from
your midst, then your town will be

News Notes Around ThP Comity.
Mr Wm. Clark, of Morris, has made
an assignment of his estate and effects
to Mr Wm. Clegg of Wingham.
Mr Jas Taylor of Exeter, the other
day weighed a Plymouth Rock hen
which tipped t]o scales at 10 lbs.
Mr George W. Forrest has rented his

to his neighbor, Mr John Reid, for a
term of years and intends retiring from
business.
Mr Jas. D. McGill, of the 9thconces-
sion of Hullett, has gone to Colorado,
where he will spend the summer, and
if the country and climate suit him
may locate there.
At a vestry meeting of St. Paul's
church Wingham, it was decided to
take no definite action in the matter of
the erection of a new church until the
regular Easter meeting.
Mr McMillan student of Knox Col-
lege has been chosen as assistant to the
Rev. A. D. McDonald at Seaforth. He
is a young man of promise. He bids
fair to be very popular with the young
people.
Mr W. Tindgeon, late of Milwaukee,
who has purchased Bellevue Place, the
old Hunter homestead, near Goderich,
has brought his family consisting of
his wife, two daughters and a grand-
child to reside here.
At Belgrave, on Friday last, Mr Peter
,Deans, auctioneer, sold the Carlton
farm, consisting of 50 acres, on the 6th
concession of East Wawanosh, to Mr
Alex. L. Morton, for 81,500. Mr Mor-
ton owned the adjoining 50 acres.
Miss Lily Moss, of Brussels,met with
a peculiar accident ono day last week.
A little boy shot at her with a popgun,
the missle striking one of the glasses of
her spectacles throwing the broken
pieces of glass into her eye. A physic-
ian speedily set matters right.
It is with regret that we have to re-
cord the death of another of our old
settlers in the person of Mr John Falls
of Grand Bend,whose age was 91 years.
His illness was of short duration. The
old man ate a hearty supper after which
he took a weak spell which lasted until
half past eight, when he died.
Word was received of the death at
Louisville, Kentucky, of James Shar-
man, whose•home was at Hardensburg,
in that state. He was a son of Mr W.
Sharman, sr., of Goderich, and spent
last winter in Goderich. He removed.
from Goderich about 20 years ago.
On Thursday of last week Robert
Thuell, of Morris, had the misfortune
to meet with an accident that will lay
him up for.some time. He was in the
bush with the team when the horses
got frightened and in their jumping
about the rack slipped and let the
driver down: through. His left leg was
broken in two places, the bone protrud,
ing through the flesh.
Mr P. Phelan, jr., of Blyth, mot with
a very serious acoident on Sunday while
attending to his horses. It seems one of
the horses, a vicious young animal,
kicked him in a terrible manner, break-
ing some of his ribs and injuring him
internally, so much so that his life was
despaired of. By latest accounts he is
doing as well as can be expeoted.
According to announcement issued a
meeting of the creditors of John John-
son, a farmer of East Wawanosh, who
recently assigned, was held at the Com•
mercial Hotel, Blyth, on Friday. The
insolvent failed to put in an appearance,
for if he had done so, some arrange-
ments satisfactory to all might have
been made, if such could have been ac-
complished at all. The case, we under-
stand, is a very bad one. The sale of
the farm took place on Tuesday, Mr C.
Johnson, of Morris, being the purchaser
The price paid was 83,500.
The committee appointed to chose a
