Cite fact that Judge Elliott is to be impeached revives iutereet in the recent Loudon election. This fact alfords..au opportuuity fur mak- ing public certain facts which' have been developed since the last act iu this drama was performed in the Ho tee. To properly understand the situation it is necessary to hasti- ly review the ohjectious that have been taken since the 30th of Feby. last. The first two complaints were :— First—That the names of appeal voters had been surreptitiously put on the list. Second—That the appeal ballots should not hove been counted by the Returning Officer. These objections were quickly disposed of, Tho names in appeal wore shown to bo put on the list in the regular order, and the law makes it as clear as noonday that the ballots in question should have been couuted. ',alto u.p a list of names of all persons whom it is p►opused to adJ to ills •list," "Also at line 3.9, the fallowing:-- "Make up a list of names 'of per - 0114) whom it i,a -proposed, to strike off, stating t e reason • why such pewee aro proposed tolbo,atruck off' "It is vent itnitortau't to know the reason why the names are proposed •to "beStruck 4, heaauae in many such, eases the person could at onoo at - toad at the final revision, if he de sired, and have the matter deter - milted. Such action would be in hal•muny with the principle of the Gill," "Sia JOHN A. MAODONALD-The following words might be inserted : 'Notiug on the said list the names of any persons who are. dead, or who are not, acoorditg to the terms of this Alt. entitled to vote and stating the reason in Said note." "MR DALES—What I would sug• gest is, that thio there there is no provision in this preliminary revi- sion for objecting to any names or suggesting that they should be left off. Dons the hon. gentleman in. tend that the proceeding should be taken at the final revisiou 1" * SIR JOHN A. MACDONALD—That is intended." "Ma. MILLS—IIow are parties on the old list to be taken off, as, for instance, a man whose .tenancy has expired, and yet hia name any appear on the now roll. There should bel some evidence, 1: think, bu-t if no one takes any iuterest iu the matter the old niuuo wpuld be left ou. If he requires the atteu• dance of the clerk or assessor to give iuformatiou before the liet is made up, he would be able to make it more accurate, and n0 0510es would have to be added or struck off, ex- cept upon application." "SIR JOHN A. MACDONALD—For the second list the Revising Otfcor has the list of the year before, and the assessment roll of that year, the year subsequent to the year for which Ihl frit 1a t was made up. He comes to the name on the voters' list of the previous year, 'John Joues, owner.' He looks at the assessmeut roll far that year, and lie finds that the name of John Jones is not there, but he would delve the name on and make a note on it:—'Objected to; not ou the assessment toll,' giving the reasonwhy the name is objected to. That gives notice to everybody, and that vote will have be be substantiated at the final revisiou." * * * * On section 46: The words of the law are—"State the name or names objected to, with the grounds therefor," and the question is whether or not the words "not qualified" are sufficient. For the purpose of acertalning the mean- ing of the law, resort has been had to the long and thorough debate on thoFranchise Bill during the three or four months it was boforeParliamont From that discussion it is possible to 'ascertain what was in the minds of the men who made the law; and it will be coucedetl that these sten meant the words of the law to re- present' their precise intention and nothing less. In rea ling the de- bate it is found that from the very ca.m.me.nea.ttest-IS ,• it, wee_ „Issas rstood that the objections should always be specific and never general. Thus it came about that on the 3rd June, 18S5, Sir John Macdonald, refer• riug t.o the very notices now in dis- pute said :— "The notice in the schedule will, of course, have to bo ahead, and instead of that form the notice will be given that it is intended to ob• jeet to the vote at the final revis• ion in the polling district. If that objectiou is sent in, and I think it would be well to have it as ea.rl'.as possible, the objection will be noted and the revising officer will kn app:oxnnately the number of obeu- tiens and the class of u'ydeliuu ." w SIR JoIIN A. MAODON•tLD—In this clause I think it will bo well to provide with more particularity as to the time at which the appeal shall be made. If the committee will look at the resolution in amend• trent it reads thus : "In any case where the revising officer is not always a judge of auy court, any person or persons who,- under vho,under the forgoing sections, shall have made any complaint, objection or application on respect of the list of ;voters in tiny polling district, whether such list be the first of any subsequent voters' list, prepared under this act for such polling dis- trict, or any person or persons with reference to whom such complaint objection or aplilicatiou shall have bean made, who shall be dissatisfied with the decision of the revising officer in respect thereof, may give to the revising officer or hie clerk, within seven days after the day of such decision, notice !n writing of his intention to appeal from such decision, stating shortly in such no- tice the decision complained of, and his reason for appealing against it, and shall cause a copy of such no- tice to be served upon the party in whose favor such decision was given either personally or by leaving it at his residence or place of business, etc,,, * * * Iloov could the revising iodises know anything about the close of objections if the notices were all in thsi general to! ms "not qualified 1" Cle'llly, Sir John Macdonald had in iris milli' the idea that when a notice of objection was served it would state the special grounds i.n in o.teh else. Leet there is no need for speculating as to what the mean• ing end intention of the word "resounds" were in the minds of those who made this Franchise Act. On the 8th of June the recotd of an important debate on the appeal clause;, is given in the official Han- sard. It is as follows :— "Mn. WlELnoN—A revising of- ficer may, in erasing the name, completely destroy the name, so that a person would not know the reason why it had been eraeod. After the first list is made up it should be kept intact until it is finally revised at the subsequent revision. I shall therefore mole in amendment to provide that, instead of adding names to the previous list, or erasing names, the Revising Officer shall make up a Het of names -proposed to be added and a liet of names proposed to be struck off, and li0. eholl state opposite the names, why such action was propos- ed. I move that at line 29 the fol- lowing be inserted :- wenld not prevOUt the j u.dgo from n a taking a p tont •ohjeotiou to the vote, of Iia uwu more motion.. 1tit.

It ie eineply a rehea►'iug;.tlte judge deals with the ease as though the Revising Officer had not enquired into the matter at ell, and under such sir cumstauoas I should think a general notice should bo aufficient. • SIR JOHN A. MAODONALD—I think it is important that—speaking on the behalf of us all—that some protection should bo given, 80 that notice of appeal might not bo givou in a mere fitof temper Or dia• Appointment at a ruling. 1 think. THERE OUGHT TO HE SOME REASON sis'r OUT, though I have no objectiou that there should be 'a proviaion added to the clause ij at it is open to the judge on appeal to hoar and decide no other reason besides those given in the notice. MR. SPROULE—I thiole it very important that soine reason'should bo specified in the notice, because parties may come without knowing what they are expected to prove. From this debate; referring_ to precisely the saute class of objectiou es were in dispute in the London elections, wo sen what is meant by the word "grounds." It means that the person whose vote is in dispute roust be notified in precise tonne whet objection is urged against his ueme being on the list. Common sense wodld call for s notice if the law did not make it clear. . Take for exempla a rurel riding. John Jones applies to be put on as tenant of lot 20, con. 6. if he were served with a notice, "Not qualified," he might come twenty miles with proof of tenancy. When, however, ho reached the county town he alight Prod thdt the real objection was that 'he was au alien or not of age. The law contemplates that he will be in- formed by notice exactly what the objection is, so that he may come prepared to meet it. It thus becomes perfectly clear that Judge Elliott only ruled in accordance with the clear purpose of the Act, as understood by the men 'who created it• What better vindication could he have 1—Free Press, Mo. CAMERON (1•Iuron)—I ob- serve that the appellant is bound iu is notice of appeal to pi re the gro nzds 0j)00 wltich he prnpnscs to appeal, it strikes the that appeals from the judgments of the revising officer ought to be made assimplo as possible. The object is that per- sons aggrieved by any adjudication of''a returning officer may appeal to a,judge, whore the revising officer is nota judge, without the necessity of employing a lawyer. ` • As to the first and second points, I ant very strongly of the opinion that some amendment should be made, and that an appellant should not be bound to state the grounds on which he proposes to appeal, that it would bo quite sufficient and would meet every emergency if the applicant stated that he proposed to appeal from the decision of the Revising Officer upon his case.

The four weeks paesed and the eggs remained unpipped. Then Hicks again sought the Ancient Man. The Ancient Men examined au egg, shook it and then cranked it ou tho heel of his boot. "What thar egg," he said, "has been hilod !" flicks occupied himself witb tear ing his hair while the Aucient Man deliberately cracked one egg af,er auother, oil.ly to find that each had been boiled. When only a few were left, he cracked open one and a moist and sticky duckling rolled out, gesticulated twice with his foot, sighed,, and was gathered to his fathers. "They forgot to bile that thar'n," quuth the Ancient Man, "but the rust is oiled all right enough." Upon Easter day, Mrs. Hicks • wore the no,v.bonnet and s smile of serene satisfaction, and Ilieks wore a look of mingled disgust and doubt. The geutlernau from whom he purchased the eggs deposes that he did not boil them and Hicke is loth to suspect the wife of his bosom. But, it was a 'mean trick, whoever pt•opetrated it. "POISONED' APPLES. THE SILLY OUTCRY AGAINST AMERI- CAN FRUIT BY ENOEJ ISII PAPERS. The recent excitement in Eng- land ogainst American apples, about whish inquiry has been made by some 01 Out' readers, was originated by the Horticultural flutes of Lon: don, and copied by many of the prumeuent daily and other journals. It was apparently based on the cow mon practice in this country of spraying young fruit with arsenites lur the destruction of insects, by which the fruit, which before was distorted and deformed by them, was made smooth• aud fair. The London papers referred to appeared to take it for granted that the spray- ed fruit has absorbed the poison, and so much of it that it is unsafe .to buy any more American apples, HICKS' INCUBATOII. and that those who oat them devour dangerous, quantities of arsenic. HOW• • MRS. HICKS GOT 'ON EASTER The absurdity 9f the position is dis- BONNET WITHOUT FIGIITING tinctly shown when it id stated F01t IT. that the largest quantity of Paris Green (ivhich is only part arsenic) Isharn G. used fn spraying, is ouly one pound in 200 gailona of water, or over three hogheads, snaking only one pait of. arsenic in about 7,000 parts of water. In spraying, not one part of the water in ten ever reaches the fruit, but covers the leaves or drops to the ground, and not more thrill a single drop enters the calyx, and of this single erop only one -seven -hundredth part is arsenic—eu0ugh to kill a young insect which weighs only two -hun- dred -thousandth part the weight of a man. It is therfore necessery for a man, to recieve any injury from this arsenic, t0 eat at least six bush• els of apples at a single sitting. But the Paris green is insoluble, and does toot enter the fruit at a11,• and this minute portion is washed off by the first shower, as Dr. Kod- zie showed with apples heavily sprayed on purpose, where not the slightest vestige of the poison could bo detected by the most rigid test, If our Eiiglieh friends had beou in the way of receiving potatoes from America some time ago, which had been treated with Paris green, they aright with morn prepriety have raised an excitement against them, for larger quantities of poison were used for the striped beotle,although it could never penetrate, the soil to roach the tubers, and could never enter them when it got there, from its insoluble nature. The truth is that millions of•persous eat such potatoes every year without any harm, and thus of thousands eat sprayed apples annually without injury.

MAODONALD—With respect to the reasons of appealing I think there should bo some reason given in the notice, a8 otherwise you would;enaourage appeals with- out reason. It is at any rate a rea- sonable conclueion that , where an appeal against a man's right to vote is made, ' THE PARTY APPEALING SHOULD GIVE.SOME REASON FOR IT. In Ontario they state the reason for appeal, whether the assessment is too high or too low, ar that the wrong person is assessed, and so on, and I think we must adhere to. that. Of course it sPfiv`I TJ It AND VAN'l'II ! It, WOltitN'd APV1,0iitt'U;illt 1 i Till~ Q11 Tl ;t�1t3, Ina lonely cabin in the woode south of KuiokerboQker, fifty miles from San Angelo, Texas, there lives a 0000 woman. She came to thet section five years or more ago and has since lived the life of a bermitese in the wilds of Western Texas. There is but little known of the strange wo• man except that her name rs Anuie Situpso0and that she carne hero from Illinois. It is said that au un- fortunate love affair back iu the Sucker State was the reason fur the woman adopting a life so btrange for one of her sex. Miss Simpson is yet a handsome woman, and tho fact that she lives alone in"the wild- erness proves conclusively that she has plenty of courage. The lady met witha thrilling•ad- ventu.re shortly after her arrival in Texas which elle will probably re member to the end of her days. The first week atter she took up her abode in the but there appear- ed there a ,strange dog. A worth- less looking cur that camp from know one knew where. The spin. star promptly adopted the dog and gave him the name Jack. It may or way not be that was rho name of the fickle Illinois lovor, but that cuts uo figure in the narrative. • •A short time after tho arrival of the dog, Miss Simpson had a thrilling adventure with a panther and there are several ugly scars now on the woman's back and shoulders that she will carry to the grave. Tho woman frequently heard the cries of wild animals late at night but she had no fear. Sho was arm ed with guns and knives and bo - sides Use heavy douse of the cabin were securely bolted each night. Late one night the spinster was awakened by the shrill scream of a woman at her very door. Sho had often heard of the panther's cry, but she did not take time to think about it at the. time. Iler first thought was that one, of her sex was in distress, and she ilurr:e 11e:Arose. A -feeling of caution, prompted her to take a knife from the pini wooden table,'a s8 0thenI ew open the door. In another mom- ent a large panther sprang upon the woman's shoulders, knocking her down on the cabin floor. The ani- mal's sharp claws sarilc deep in- to the woman's flesh and the teeth almost met in the flesh upon her back. It was at that critical mom ent that Jack; the worthless ,outcast cur, came to the rescue of his mis- tress. The dog grabbed the ani- mal's leg and bit away with all lois might: The doge efforts wore not in vain. With a growl of rage and pain the panther turned from the woman to the dog. It was only for a moment but it was the means of saving the spiriter's life. Sho sprang to her feet graphing up the knife as she dill eo. When the an- imal turned again to his intended victim she plunged the knife into his breast. Fortunately for the spin- ster the fisrt stab inflicted a fatal wound. The panther sprang upon the woman again, however, driving the steel blade to the hilt in his body. Tho animal's holt then ro• laxed and it fell upon the floor dead. The woman found poor Jack in one corner almost dead from the ugly wounds inflicted by the ani- mal. The dog was given the very caro attention and in time recovered from. his wounds. Tho spinster walked several miles to a couuty doctor the following day and had her wounds dressed. She has fully recovered and now has ouly the scars to remind -her of of the most thrilling adventure of her life- The strange woman and strange dog have formed a strong attachment for ono another. There is probably a bond of sympathy be- tween them, a feeling that they are both• outcasts iu a strange country. Theo there is another reason ; Jack, the cur, once saved tho spinster's life and she will never forget it, NAIdIZi I'VE AAB i'.

WHERE CIVILIZATION AND SAVAGERY MEET. Upon the 1500 miles of the shore. of Lake Superior there are living now less than 150,000 'persons, and these are mainly in bustling cities like Duluth, Superior, and Mar- quette, in industrial colonies like Calumet and Red Jacket, or In struggling little ports like Fort William and Port Arthur. Even there the wilderness and primeval conditions are face to face with the • robust civilization which is ehoul• derigg its way as capital is accus- tomed to do rather tha,u ae natural growth usually asserts itself. ,Not that it is not a wholly natural, growth which wo find at sill points on the lake shore. fur it is all in re• sponse to the inexorable laws of supply and den rcd:...`_ire.t....th.0.comv-• munities there have sprung into be- ing far apart from well settled regions in answer to these laws. • Thus tt appears that to -day one may ride in on electric street car to the starting•point for a short walk to a trout stream, or one may take the steam railroad, and in an hour .• alight at a forost station, breakfast- ing there, but enjoying for luncheon a cut of deer or a dish of the trout or the patridgo which he has killed for the purpose. It is, so to •say, a. region wherein the wholesale fisher- man with his steamboat disturbs the red man who, is spearing a fish for. supper, where the wolf blinks in the glare of the electric lamp, and where the patont stump -puller and the beaver work side by side. The strange condition is most stirringly illustrated by a recent occurance in Michigan, in the same region. Close to a watering resort which is crowded in summer by persons from all over the West, some mon were ,cutting timber in the winter. Two brothers were among them. One hit himself with an axe, cutting open an artery in his leg. The other hurried away for . surgical help. When the , messenger returned, nothing but the bones of his brother were left, Wolves, attracted by the scent of -rim, lois blood, had eaten him up. It is thus that there is forced upon the comprehension the -practical newness of this giant freshwater sea, which geologists would halms - believe is millions of years old,`nil!ti which even history mentions in de- tailing the exploits of men who died in the seventeenth century. But with the youth of this new civiliza- tion have come the vigor and enter- prise needed to develop industries and to rear cities of which ell the people of all the States, nitCv and old, may well feel proud. --.-From "Brother to the Sea," by JULIAN RALPH, in Harryer's Magazine for April.
