Betirement of Mr. Meredith. The most important thing in the po- litical world just now is the retirement of Mr W. R. Meredith from the poli - tion of leader of the Local Opposition, And his acceptance of the position of Chief Justice of Common Pleas. This necessitates that he retire altogether from legal and political work. The new position, which comes to him from the Dominion Government, is worth about 88.000 a year, and, as he got almost as much as this for being solicitor of Toronto, his retirement to the bench means a financial sacrifice. Mr Meredith has been a member of the House since 1872, and has been leader of the Conservative forces since 1878. He succeeded Hon John Carling as member for London, and was select- ed for party leader when Sir Matthew Crooks Cameron was called to the bench, his rivals for the position being Hon. Mr Morris and Hon. Mr McDou- gall. That he is a man of considerable ability has always been conceded, and in some respects he was more of a re- former than Mr Mowat, but to our mind, he has been too vacillating. He was a clever lawyer, the fact that he had a large and lucrative practice being evidence of this. His withdrawal at this particular juncture is a serious loss to the Oppo- • sition, and the Empire candidly ads mits it; there are several good men on that side of the House, but there seems to be a doubt as to acceptability for the leadership. The names of Mr Whitney, Mr Marter and Mr Howland, all mernbers of the House, are men- tioned. Of these, Whitney is the most likely one. But rumors are current that some one in Dominion politics will be made the leaders, and the names of Hon. .T. C. Patterson and Dr. Montague are mentioned. It is almost certain the former will not be leader, and it is hardly likely that it will be the latter. Some of the Conservative papers, notably the Hamilton Spectator, were -nne any too well pleased with Mr Mere- dith, simply because he did not suc- ceed long ere this in defeating Mr Mowat. Mr Meredith would gladly have led his party to victory, if it could be done, hut the overthrow of a gov- ernment that has been wise and.eco- nomical in its administration, was not an easy task. It is not at all unlikely that Mr Meredith, realizing the hopelessness of defeating Mr Mowat, and seeing no prospect of such a thing in the imme- diate future, has got sick and tired of the contest. Besides, the honor and prestige associated with a judgeship is much greater than in the position he has been filling. A new election will be necessary for London, and the Liberals are in hopes that they can capture.q the constituency. As possible Conserdative candidates, the names of MaIor. Essery and Mr T. G. Meredith (brother) are mentioned. By running the latter, it is thought that "the Meredith influence," which is a strong factor, would be retained. The Detroit Free Press is authority for the statement that an effort is be- ing made in South Essex to take the Dominion nomination away from Dr. King and give it to the Hon. J. C. Patterson. Another report in circula- tion is to the effect thathe is to become leader of the Opposition in the Local House. Christian Endeavorers. THE ANNUAL COUNTY CONVENTION IN CLINTON LAST WEEK. The third annual convention of the Huron County Christian Endeavor Union, held in Clinton Blast week, has now passed into history, and we be- lieve it may be justly called the most successful meeting in the history of Winner," was then ully and power - this organization. fully dealt with by the Rev.

That life was fast fading away and if they wished to increase in knowledge and favor withChrist they must begin at once to work for him, if they had no time let them make time, for they had all the time there was, and Christ ex- pected them to be actively engaged in advancing his kingdom. Rev. J. S. Henderson, of Hensall was the other speaker of the eveningltaking for his subject "Power for service and how to get it". He emphasized the point of having a determined course and make the motto of your life "This one thing I 90 and do. it well." He did not claim that a man must be preach- ing on the street corner all -the time, must receive more prominence in the futureif we expect to have our yxquu Heople hold the positions they should.., er trtethodaateetastat • merely theory ttir flowery seutenoes, but pratl- °i :t s�tg ;jigs on several a junior s� l t o i. -Work n h @ r ,. t.y Wi? socipel ,'while the' possibilities were stlelt as any society might attain to if they 'used the,pria methods ethods to reach them This is another paper that will likely be Printed in.full, The pastor's conference on -the sub* "What has the society de4ti'e- foesin church ?" was opened by Rev. F. Safe of Hensall, in a practical address, and all the ministers present told Lit a few sentences as to how the society had helped their churches. This proved to the delegates that their work was being appreciated and will, no doubt, encourage them to endeavor to ac- complish even greater results in the future. , Miss G. M. Elder, of Seaforth, gave a very full report of the Cleveland con- vention, and deserves much credit for the able manner in which it was written, for the very many points of interest which she touched, and the practical thoughts and ideas which she was also able to emphasize. but rather he should take Christ with The nominating committee here re - him in all the avenues of life and ported and recommended the appoint- ment of the following officers, which the convention passed, and therefore the following are the officers for 1894- 1895 : President, Rev. Jos. Edge, Goderich; lst Vice -President, C. N. Andrews, Wroxeter; 2nd Vice -President, Miss Hall, Wingharn; Secretary, A. T. Cooper, Clinton; Treasurer, Miss Sara- bel,McLean, Seaforth; Committee, Re. J. S • Hendeson, Hensall; Rev. 0. H. Cobbledick, Brussels; Mr. Parsons, Exeter. The question drawer then became the centre of atrraction and here the audience were introduced to that talented speaker, Rev. Dr. Dickson, or Galt. The questions were so numerous and of such importance that it took the Dr. over one hour to answer them, but he did it fully and, we believe to the entire satisfaction of all the questioners. The success of this department was greater than the Executive had any idea of and will surely he repeated, as it solves a lot of knotty problems which delegates don't care to publicly ask in a convention. Now carne the social pause of the convention and proved beyond all doubt that it was a move in the right direction. It was the social and tea given by the local societies of the town, and was in every way a successful one. It occupied one hour and a half, from 6 to 7.30 p. ni. Promptly at 7.30 the President-elect, Rev. Jos. Edge, was on the platform, assisted by Dr. Dickson and Rev. J. W. Holmes. The latter, however, act- ed as chairman during the evenisi^g session.

Cobbledick, for his past services ; also to the Secretary, Mr. Cooper, for his efficiency and indefatigable labor; also to the local unions and to the friends in Clinton for their warm and generous hospitality extended to the delegates. Rev. Dr. Dickson.delivered what our young people termed one of the best ad- dresses theyhave everlistened to,and all unite in saying that it gave them food for many days of thought. He took for his subject "Equipment for Ser- vice." One of the thoughts he wished to impress was that every Endeavorer should become familiar with the Bible, not simply read it, to fulfil their pledge, but study it and ask for the guidance of the Holy Ghost in revealing the truths. Have some system and resolve that you will endeavor to study regular- ly and with as little interruption as pos- sible. In concluding he advised the tak- ing on of the whole armour of God,say- ing that those who were equipped in this fashion can never fail, but will al- ways succeed. Rev. Jos. Edge followed, taking for his subject, "The Holy Spirit in Endea- or Work." He thought the time was not yet come when God wanted all the churches to be united, but he said that the aims and objects should all be one and that our forces should be united to pull down the strongholds of sin, and with united energies we should accom- plish more by working harmoniously together, ever remembering that God never intended that there should be any waste of money such.as there is in some of our mission fields. We need the Holy spirit to give us united fire. Before the closingconvention ser- vice, in which all te delegates con- secrated themselves afresh to Christ and His work, being led by Dr. Dick- son, the place of meeting for 1895 was decided, and Blyth was the choice of the convention. Next year's convention well therefore never go any place where he could not take Christ along. He said there were too many persons recorded on the church register who were absolutely indifferent as to whether their neigh- bor was a saint or sinner. That God is for quality and not for quantity and that he would rather have five con- secrated young people than a hundred indifferent ones. Cultivate an attach- ment for Jesus and a personal acquaint- ance with Jesus Christ. An entire con- secration of all we have on the altar of Christ. Consult him in everything we undertake. To do effective work for Christ we !must have the baptism of the Holy Ghost, as we are powerless without it. After singing and the closin • exer- cises the meeting adjourned till Friday morning. The morning was dark and dreary, yet about seventy-five persons attended the sun -rise prayer • meeting at 6.30 conducted by Rev. J. S. Hender- son. At 9 o'clock the Convention again resumed business, the devotional ex- ercises being conducted by Rev. H. Irvine, of Goderich. The first paper was that given by Miss S. A. Acheson, of Goderich, on the subject "Causes and remedies of dull meetings" and an excellent paper it was, being full of practical hints, which. if adopted in the Leagues and Societies will surely prevent there being any dull meetings. The programme called for seven five minute papers on "Tho work of Model Committees"; they were giyen by Miss N. Galloway of Seaforth, Miss Edith Matheson of Wingham, Miss M. Moore of Brussels, Miss McEwen of Clinton, Miss Ross of Brussels, Miss Belle Wil- son of Hensall and Miss Mills of Luck - now, on "Look Out," 'Prayer Meet- ing," "Visitation," "Social," "Music," "Flower" and "Missionary" Com- mittees respectively. The highest compliment that we can pay the ladies for these excellent papers is that the Executive thought it wise to have thein printed in phamplet form and distri- buted among the societies, and an effort will be made to have this done. "Our relation to the missionary enter- prise" was next taken up by Dr. Gifford of Wingham. The Dr. is a powerful and eloquent speaker and gave many reasuns.._tehy we should not only be good, but• We ought" also to be- doing good. The spirituality of a church was to be judged by its efforts to the cause of missions.. Rev. Jas. Anderson of .Goderich then dealt with the subject "Systematic Beneficence" and he thought it was a very good time for him to address the convention,ust after Dr. Gifford's eloquent address on Mission Work. He cited the case of the Israelites being ordered to give a certain portion of their income to the Levites,• and ex- plained why it was necessary to give, to give systematically and to give liberally. We are sure ,that all those present will make more definite plans for the systematic giving of the tithes to God after hearing such an excellent address. The Secretary's report showed a large increase of membership and gave evi- dence to prove the 'Huronites were be- coming more united and determined to do something for their Master who has done so much for them. One year ago there were but 22 societies record- ed, now there are 60, including 4 junior societies, and a total membership of 2,846, as against 1,024 as re- ported at the 1893 Convention. Yet he said there were societies not yet inside the union, and urged upon the delegates to do all in their power to have every society in the County join the union and thereby strengthen and help the organization, as well as enjoy the benefits of these conventions. A special request was made asking the corresponding secretaries to answer all correspondence promptly, when sent to them from time to time. The convention then adjourned for noon. At 2 o'clock the meeting was opened by Rev. J. S. Henderson, who was the presiding officer, owing to the unavoid- able absence of the President, Rev. G. H. Cobbledick, The subject, "Every Member a Soul the opening session and notwithstand- ing the unfavorable weather, Loyal Christian E ndeavorers and whole heart- ed Epworthians came by steed and steam to the number of about fifty delegates, and were met by the local reception Committee who escorted them to the Rattenbury St. Methodist church, ^where the Convention was hold, where they registered, and receiv- ed their programmes and convention badges. The convention was formally opened at 7.30 with Mayor Holmes as presid- ing officer and a goodly number of Lo- cal Endeavorers, doing all in their pow- er to make the visitors comfortable, and, successfully carry on the work of the convention. • The decorations were tasty and choice and showed that the decoration committee had gone to considerable trouble to make the church attractive and homelike. The delegates were not slow to show their appreciation of the effective display of banners, mot- toes and streamers. The main object of the convention, however, was to get as much practical help for Carrying on the work which the Societies have undertaken as was bfisibie to compress into such a short 4 ime, The first address after the service not necessarily need more wealth or more talent, but more motive power, more consecrated energy, and more fire from on high, in order that every member might be a soul winner. The time for the President's address had arrived and every personresent deeply regretted that through death in his family the President was not able to attend the Convention. They were all very sorry to he deprived of his splen- did executive ability, and from the correspondence he sent we know that he too was also exceedingly sorry ; how- ever the President's address was read by Rev. J. S. Henderson, and proved to he a masterpiece of composition and only lacked the writer's power of ex- pression to thrill every soul with en- thusiasm and zeal to work with more system and energy for the Master dur- ing the com `fig year. ects of Christ's work," was of an address written by nderson, of St. Helens, and v.
