The unfortunate person is Richard Walter, of East \Vawanoah� who was skidding loge iu his bush, Mr. Walter had hi■ right leg against the and of a log and wile getting into position "ea large, knotted and knarled maple, and as the team attached thereto was moving it the log became balanced and swung around' with great force, striking the leg which was against the end of the log just below the knee and almost mashing it into a pulp. Doctors Tamlyn and Chisholm were immediately sum- moned and did all that was possible under the circumstances.. ,T -hey saw that amputation was beat, but the sufferer would not listen to it. The physieiane went ;bank, >p„ the . evening and found their patient in an unfit condition to operate upon. The Orange Ledge here will hold e Royal Arch degree meeting here this (Wednesday) evening. Port Abert The political fight goes bravely on,. and the Hon. J. C. Patterson, Secretary of State, is gaining a stronger good will of the people at each meeting. Ho is ably assisted by the hero of Haldimand, Dr. Montague, who ie a host in himself on a public platform. They carry everything by storm when ever they speak. Tho meeting at Kingsbridge on Wednesday last was a sore one from a Grit point of view. Daniel of tbo Signal, alias Ajax, put in an appear- ance for the purpose of crushing the Conservative party. He got the floor for half an hour but his fierce denunciation of the present admin- istration did not take worth a cent. Then Dr.Ivion tague took the floor and, ye gods and little fishes, the fur flew at every sweep. Poor Ajax had not a leg to stand on, and ho wished that ho never was born. At the conclusion of the meeting a few of the "Grit pets" kicked up a row which was disgraceful and some pretty hard language was in- dulged in. The worthy Reeve, "Joe" taking a hand in. However, as the blackthornes were not brought into play there was no person kilt. Some persons who voted for the Reform candidate at the last election declared they would now vote for Patterson and good Government. The Grit meeting at Port Albert on Thursday, evening was. a fizzle of fizzlea. About 7.40 M. C,Cameron, Q. C„ ex -M. f'., J. T. Garrow, Q. C., M. L. A., and D. McGillicuddy, editor of the Signal, arrived at the school house. Five minutes later Mr. Larke, of Oshawa ; Snyder, of Haldimand ; Radcliffe, of Goderich; and P. Kelly, of Blyth, who had been waiting at the hotel for the li eyitlttiO hour, put in an appear- tqlhbe ln'tite interest of Mr. Patter' On. ,,or some reason beet known Mr. Cameron left for the Rotel, &td the Grit whipper -in was in the net of blowing out the lights Wren tome of the opposite party sly the up again. It was a plain ,ase th$t the Tories were masters of the situation, and after some con• ttiderable talk and exproeeione of disgusts Grit and Tory left for the hotel when Mr. Larke received aoveral telegrams and read them out to the publi' ..iviag Tory victories all o . e Dominion. Several s and, Tories expressed a wish to hear Mr.Larlte discuss the several queatioge of the day, as from his pleasant appearance and gentle- manly conduct he was a " favorite" with the crowd, but all were doomed to disappointment and the Grit apeakere returned to the county town eadder but wiser men. Slap—bang—here we are again, straight ioto another political fight, and ready—yea ready. We are ready for the fray,loaded for bare or anything in the shape of a Canrer- oniau. That class's usefulness is gone and West Huron asks their services no longer. Any level headed fellow who has the interest of this riding uppermost in his mind must come to the conclusion that the lion. J. C. Patterson,Secre- tary of State, is the man for Galway. Taking a cool and quiet look into the present riding situation, or the state of affairs that exiete at the capital, there is no getting over the fact that the Conservative party will have their "innings" at Ottawa during the next four years, and it would be madness on the part of the electors of this riding to send a member to oppose them, more especially when we have such a grand opportunity of sending a Cabinet Minister as our representa- tive. West Huron (especially thia northern part) has been neglected during the past ten years, but the time is right here when we have a grand opportunity of placing a member of high repute in Parlia- ment who will have the power to assist ne from the fact that a Cabinet Minister's influence.is as much over a private supporter of a government as is a private supporter of a gov- ernment over an Oppositionist. Aud the Hon. Mr. Patterson is a gentleman in every mange -of the - word, and his word is as good as his bond,:alwaps happy and 'willing to look after the interest of his menet*' uente. Liberal in his views he ha endeared himself to people of every creed, class and race. Your tie lbe has had the pleasure of meeting thie gentleman on two occasions, once in Toronto and once at Ottawa. Now is the time, Electors of West Huron 1 A long pull, a strong pull, and a pull altogether and you will never regret it. . -11 ulmesvliille• Mies L.
