Dr. Gibs an replied in a very pleasing manner and thanked his many friends for their great kindness and apprecia- tion of his efforts. We understand that Dr. Gibson will visit his old friends in Clinton before taking up his permanent residence at the American Soo. The ExeterTimes thinks that because ery,''of London, declared himself a rohibitionist, he should have received e entire °mpeeence vote,•and claims the-ceuse has received its death 'because he, did not receive that :• The,,Timee should be the last to utter, tiny such nonsense. It 5P-hanot"'forgotten an election uthBron last June, when the Liberal can idate, Mr McLean, was a prohibitionist„ while his opponent was not. According to the Times' reason• ing, it should have supported Mr Mc- • Lean; it should have "forgotten party and worked on prohibition lines, ' but it goes without saying that it did not do so. It did about everything fair or unfair that a paper could do, and has kept the warfare up ever since. It Kept Growing: They tell an amusing story concern- ing a well-known Liberal of London. On the evening of the election he had occasion to leave bytrain for Brussels, before the polis closed. Being very anxious to know the result, he tele- graphed back frpm the first station, and got in answer : "Hobbs 100 ahead." He could hardly believe the report, and to verify it telegraphed to London at the next station, receiving the reply: "Hobbs' majority 300 and count not complete." This sent his spirits away up into G, and at the next station the answer to his message was : . "Hobbs majority 600 and two wards to hear from.' He was in jcstifiable ecstacies by this time, and when the train arrived at Brussels, and he learned that Mr Hobbs was elected by 800 of a majority, he thus expressed himself :— "By George, if I had only left Lon- don this morning, and Hobbs' majori- ty had grown as it has been growing this evening, he'd have had 3000 of a majority." Another story is told, this time at •the expense of a prominent Conserva- tive. With others he was anxiously awaiting news •of the election. As the reports kept coming in that Hobbs was ahead, each report increasing his ma- jority, this person grew every restless;, and finally, at about 8 in the evening, when it was announced that Hobbs was 800 ahead, he left the place, with the remark, "Gol darn it,. the Grits haven't stopped voting yet" Qn an'eaida' age will be found' one °f ti;e seers read at iia #Ilsrou Ohri)itian k ndoavar Oeilventien The usual monthly followshi meetings will bo held on Sunday m orniug ucxt, iu the Moth°. dist ° urebeo.

Paul, of Brussels, occupied the pul- pit of Rattenbury $trout church, on Sunday. He is a superannuated minister, but is as vigorous, both moutally and physically, as many men in the active work, .and his sermons hero ware able expositions of truth. The new Presbyterian church at Avonton ono of the finest rural edifices in Perth, is about ready for ocoupanoy and will he open on Sun- day, Doo. 9. The ehureh is presided over by Rov. A. H.

The Bishop of Huron has appointed tho Rev.' L. W. Diehl to the charge ofAilsaCraig, and it is likely that ho will enter upon the work there as soon as his successor here is appointed. We have already expressed our opinion of Mr Diehl's many sterling qualities, and need not repeat that further than to say his removal will be universally regretted, and the bast of good wishes will follow both him and Mrs Liohl to the now field of labor. THANKSGIVING SERv10E.—Tho union thanks- giving sorvioo, held in the town hall, is always well attended and was the case on Thursday last; Rev. Mr Holmes presided; Rev Mr Stewart gave�a good sermon on the topic "God is Love"; Messrs Smyth and Coltman taking part in the other exercises; the singing was in charge of Mr Sibley. A singular coincidence in these services, is the fact that the collection—on be- half of the poor—is almost the sanho amount each year, being in the vicinity of $24. CoNVENTroN.—A convention of the Goderich district of the Methodist church will be hold in the Methodist ohurch, Seaforth, on Thursday, Deo. 6th, commencing at 9.30 a.m. The morn- ing session will be devoted to S.

After opening the meet- ing, which was largely attended, Mr Gaunt. President, suggested that this convention appoint a chairman to pre- side over the meeting, stating that there were certain charges against him, which he proposed to clear up, and he would prefer a chairman being appointed. At this juncture James Connolly was appointed, but he also declined, giving as a reason that there were certain reports current concern- ing his conduct at the last Provincial •edea, and, he wished to have the privilege of ltpeaking; therefore • he thought that th@@ meeting should ap- point another cD irman. According to this request H. Elford, of Holmes- ville, was appointed and presided, ap- parently to the satisfaction of all pres- ent. J. Connolly then gave an ac- count of the course he had taken, and • left no room to doubt but that he had strictly adhered to Patron principles. J. Gaunt, then (;ave an explanation of his course and his reasons for the way he had acted. On motion his nornina- • tion became void. The following nom- inations were then made:—J. Bell, Carlow; Thos. Gledhill, Benmiller; A. Robinson, Carlow; J. Cox, Porter's Hill; D. A. Forrester, Clinton; all gave short addresses. A. Robinson and J. Cox declining; Messrs Bell, Gledhill and Forrester were then balloted for, the result of the lst ballot giving D.A. Forrester a large majority; Bell and Gledhill then gave way .and made the nomination practically unanimous. Mr Forrester accepted the nomination, pledging himself to stand by the P. I. platform, and if he did not do so, the Patrons could at any time call a con- vention and demand his resignation; he gave satisfactory reasons for his at- titude in the Local contest, and made 'e good atiddr ss, WEDDED. J,- Thursday afternoon of last week wag an important occasion to a couple of popular Clintonians, it being the time of the wedding of Mr W. J. Harland to Miss Hattie Read. The event took place at the home of the bride's mother. Huron Street, in the presence of a number of friends and relatives. Miss Kate Read (sister) acted as bridesmaid, While Mr George Harland, (brother) of Detroit, per- formed the part of groomsman. Misses Mabel and Bessie Callander, of London, (daughters of Mr John Callander) and Master Willie Rattenbury also assist- ed. After the ceremony had been per- formed by Rev. Mr Diehl, the couple received the congratulations of their friends, and then par took of a wedding dinner, leaving by the afternoon train for Detroit, an immense crowd gather- ing to see t `em off.

Two SUGGESTIONS.—Mr Editur, at this time of the year parties often take the liberty of driving with waggons and buggies on the grassy sidewalk, making it bad for foot paseengera to walk on. Will you please give them notice that they are liable to be fined. Some few days ago a farmer was seen passing along the street with his rig, having in it a lamb standing up in an ship case; he -was going to sh p it The thought came to me that if butchers and others, taking calves or lambs to be slaughtered, would do likewise, it would look more humane than tying up their legs, and letting their heads (with tongues hanging out) hang over the side, of the rig, and the wheels knocking them about. It is often done by parties who have no desire to be cruel, but for want of thought.— CITIZEN. • 1 'ulitical t Tee offoial couiit,t ivee Air I3.obbs 600 of a majority in LOxit1,QP.

At the meeting of the Young People's Sooioty of Rattenbury Street church, on Monday even- ing, tho exercises wee conducted by the Mis- sion Circle, and wore very interesting. Mr Ma- hood gave an admirable descriptive address on Corea, (with the aid of a mapp) and epoko as familiar on the subject as if he had traversed it from one end to the other; Mr Thompson read an instructive paper on Corea and the Corean war, whichioontained much valuable information;Mr A. T. Cooper followed with a series of ques- tions, the outcome of the address• and required answers from members of the audience. (hero was a large attendance, all of whom evidently enjoyed the exorcises. AT HOME.—Tho Young People's Society of Ontario Street Methodist church, gave an At Home on Monday evening last, when a very enjoyable time was spent by the large Number present, who listened with interest and profit to the following program:—Address, Mr Smyth; chorus, Messrs Holloway, Kerr, Foster, Israel and Downs; duett Misses Andrews and Hamil- ton; reading Mr Murch; piano solo, Miss Clara Steep; solo, Miss Andrewe: instrumental duet, Misses Conch and McMurray.

Mr Haycock, M.Y.P., leader of the Patrons of Industry elected to the Legislature, was the 'speaker of the evening. He again emphatically deolared the independence of the Patron organiza- tion of either of the old parties, and an` nounoed they would introduce legislation making acceptance of passes by members of Parliament a breaph of the indepen• deuce of Parliament Act. Sir Richard Cartwright, he said, had insisted that the Petrone and the Reformers were virtually one party, and Dr.Ryerson had argued the same on behalf of the Conservatives. Jndging by the result of the London elec- tion it would appear the people of that oity thought Bir' Richard Cartwright's claim the better of the two. A New York Herald despatch says:— Hon. Edward Blake has soon tired of Irish politics. In the course of a speech to his constituents the other day, he hinted at hie intention to retire from political life. He announced yesterday that he would retain his seat only until the general election. The Nationalists claim that this is net due to any quarrel with Mr Blake, which may be literally true, but it is trne that the squabbles in the party during the last year or 18 months have disgusted and disbeart- •ened-Nisi, >: There ie -good reason, to believe, too, that Mr Blake has been 'greatly sur- prised and disappointed at the actual out- look for home rule. When he left Canada to take a seat in the House of Commons it was his belief that an Irish. Parliament would be won within two or three years, and the glamour of the idea of taking a seat in the historic chamber on College Green obscured the keenness of hie politi- cal vision. He now forgoes a long period of bitter strife and turbulent agitation, for which he has neither taste nor desire. [Thio has since been contradicted. seer. DENIAL WEEK.—The Salvation Army is preparing for its annual self denial week, which will be celebrated throughout the Do- minion of Canada from Deo. lit to 8th, inclu- sive. The proceeds, which have been raised other years through this concentrated effort, has been a remarkable testimony to the Army development and activity. Every member of the Army, as well as the numerous friends of its institutions, are asked to abstain from some or all luxuries, and in some cases officer's and soldiers have determined to do without oven such expenditure as is ordinarily considered necessary in order to raise funds to support the Salvation Army in its many different branches. The social operations especially have been greatly developed during the past year, and, as natural consequences, the demand upon the funds of tho Army have been increased,which will require greater efforts to raise an ncreas- ed amount duringself denial week. The total amount aimed for is $23,000. Above we have announced that the Salvation Army are hat ing their self denial week, as dates stated, and ef- forts are now being put fprth in a practical way, as we conclude from the contents of the War Cry, and the special pamphlets and appeals which are being distributed by soldiers and officers. Tho proceeds of previous self denial weeks in Canada have been continually increas- ing, and there aro many reasons to believe that this years efforts will exceed the former. Many officers and soldiers have determined to live ac- tually on bread and water—others next to it. order to raise a good share of this total aim- ed at. Soldiers have been told off to visit from house to house," and select contributions. In other places, the bands have arranged to seren- ade, and by this means raise something towards the target.

MONTREAL LIVE STOCK MARKETS There were about 450 head of butchers' cattle, 1,500 sheep and lambs and about a dozen calves • offered at the East End Abbattoir Monday. Butehore were present in considerable numbers, but they were rather careless about buying any more cattle, as most of them havelalready more boot on hand than they will be able to dispose of before next market day.
