If we had a situation in Canada simi-

grown accustomed to such methods of
keeping up civilization, Montreal Star.

•The plan wvhicit Mr. ,John Millar,- De-
puty -Minister of Educatiou, suggests, in
order to encourage school boards to en-
gage teachers with higher class certifi-
cates, and therefore, at higher salaries,
is to devide part of the legislative grant
on the basis of the certificates. At pre-
sent, he says. some $300,000 is distribut-
ed among the public schools, solely on a
basis of the average attendance,irrsspec•
tive •aP"tbe qualifications of the teachers.
In round numbers there are 500 first
class teachers in our public schools,
4,000 second-class, and 4,000 third.class.
`He thinks that a school board employing
a first -plass teacher might be given a
special grant of $100 and one employing
a second-class teacher $30. This would
require about $250,000, and would leave
about $100,00 to be divided as at present,
on the,basie of average attendance, The
principle has been adopted in Nova
Scotia. -Stratford Beacon.
Kidney Disease
and Backache
Mr. John Guheen, who is in the Fish
Bushiest at Port Hope, states: -"In my

theme of the children who mocked Elijah
on his journey to Bethel -how the young-
sters tatutted the poor prophet, and how
they were punished when two she bears
came out of the wood and ate forty and
two of them. ''And now, children,"said
the speaker, wishing to learn if his talk
had produced any moral effect, "what

The members of Manufacturers Assoc-
iation are pursuing two lines of campaign
which are hardly cousistent with each
other. On ane hand they ask us to buy
their goods because they are Cam:di:tit
made, and bemuse they possess merit.
These are reasons which appeal both to
our sympathy and our judgment, It is
a line of argument that repels no one.
Oa the other hand, they demaud thereat: -
ed duties for the purpose of excludiug all
foreign goods and compel us to purchase
front them at their mit prices. This is a
policy of coerciou, and repels those
whom the other policy would attract. It
tends to neutralize all :the good will that
a coucilintory policy might secure.-

CANADA FORGING AHEAD.
The extraordinary influx of popu-
lation to our Nortliwest this year is
attracting the attention of the Brit-
ish newspapers, which attribute the
increased immigration to the policy
of the present Government, which
has, iu eight years, succeeded lin se-
curing a larger nuinher of settlers
than • the Tory Government did
iu eighteen years.
Speaking of the wonderful inflow
of new settlers, the Loudon Chronicle
says:
"The inflow of new settlers to
Canada continues to iucrease in vol-
ume. and the Northwest Territories
seem to be specially favored by the
immigrants. All this comes of the
shrewd, progressive policy of the
Ottawas authorities in having the
railways pusbed as ,rapidly as possi-
ble out into the waste -lauds, for
where the soil is rich -as it is in
most parts of Canada -lines which
may be run at a loss during the
first year or two are bound to pay
handsome later on. For the year
ended June 30 last, the emigrants
fromh Old e Country to the Domin
ion cumbered 17'000, as against 12,000
for the previous year. From the
United States and the Continent of
Europe there was a similar increase
-24,000 as against 18,000 iu the form-
er case, and 24,000 as against 19,000
in the latter. Canada is sure to go
ahead. rapidly while this system
works, and before many years, seeing
how the facilities for transport and
settlement are being increased, the
country ought to be carrying au enorm-
ous population.

Sketch of the Early Days anti Pion-
eers.
The Clinton News -Record iai giviwr its
readers a historical sketch of the differ-
ent townships in Huron enmity. The
following sketch of Morris township
will be read with ititerest:
Morris is laid out in the shape of a
parallelogralit whose diukensious north-
east and eonthwest are nearly twelve
miles, by seven and n half from south-
east to northwest, (.)n its two latter
sides it is enclosed between Grey and
East Wewanosh, while Turuberry forms
its northeastern boundary and Hullett
and McKillop its southwestern. The
towuship originally contained 57,120
acres of laud and water.
Its surface is comparatively even
except near the river. The south
branch of the Maitland enters at Brus-
sets and pursuing en extremely irregular
course leaves the township near the
northeru angle, at Wiugliam, having
been joined by the middle branch,whicli
enters the township at Bluevnie. Along
the banks of these streams the land is
extremely broken which is the chief ex.
ceptiou to the general description of a
comparative evenness of suxtace. In
fact, both he this respect as well as in
regard to quality of soil, Morris very
strongly resembles Grey and Wawa -
nosh,
Outside those parts of Morris now in-
cluded within the limits of Blyth and
Brussels, the first settlement in the
township was made at Belgrave by a
party cousisting of John McRae, Chris-
topher Corbett, John Brandon and Robt.
Armstrong, these were all originally fruit
County Fermanagh in Ireland, but had
afterwards settled 1u West Gwiilimbury,
Simcoe County, whence they came to
take up their residences in Morris.
They first ca a inSept.�1851,intendingtelltn
g
to select laud and build shanties thereou
before returning; but before snaking a
choice the season had got soifar advanc-
ed that they concluded to deter clearing
and building operations until the next
spring. The lots selected and where
they subsequently settled were as fol.
lows: McRae, lot 2, con. 5, Corbett, lot
3, con. 5; Brandon, lot 8, con. 4; Arm-
strong, lot 6, con. 4. Ia pursuit of their
intentions they returned early iu the
spring of 1852, effected small clearings
on their lots and after ereetiug shanties
and planting potatoes, etc., again return-
ed, coming in to remain permanently
in the fall of 1852. At the time of their
first coming here there were no settlers
iu the township except Kenneth McBean
and Wm. McConnell, who had amaIl
clearings and log shanties where Blytli
now stands.
During the latter part of 1852, how-
ever, a number of settlers came itt to
the di0`ereut sections of the township.
Chas. W. Parker, afterwards the first
Reeve, was the first who followed them,
and in fact his actual settlement dates
ahead of them alt, as he came in. put up
a simile, ou lot 10, cavi. 6, and remained
there during the time the others were
east Among the earliest of the other
settlers were Joseph England, Witham,
John and David Geddes, and Hector
McLean, who ssttled on the 3rd and 4th
lines; Abraham Proctor, lot 7, con. 4;
Chas. Proctor. lot 7, con. 5; and Joseph
Stubbs, lot 8, con. 4. Further south
John Kelley, with a large family of sons,
settled in May, 1853, on lot 13, con. 7'
Still a little further south Wm. Wilson,
afterwards for many years Reeve, set-
tled. in June, 1853; and the Laidlaws
heti already settled a short time pre-
viously along the 9th and 10th lines;
and in 1853, also, another family of five
brothers of Kelleys (of whom Thomas
was afterwards Reeve of the township)
settled on the 8th. and 91b Iines. Mr.
Wilson was the magistrate who called
the first public meeting in the township
both for school and municipal purposes.
William Armstrong, 'ldt 8, con. 6, also
settled in the fall of 1803'; Wm. Baines
located just a week previous to him on
lot 7, con: 4; Alex. Finlay sometime
during the preoedmg sutYamer on lot 14,
con. 5; and Robert Armstrong on lot 6,
con. 4, in the autumn of 1853. The first
settlers in the eastern part of the town-
ship were George Forsyth, who settled
upon lot 28, con. 5, in the early part of
September, 1853, and John Sample, who
came in on the Grey town lino a short
time subsequently. There was not a
single settler north of the 4th eoncessiou
till after the winter of 1853-54, but dur-
ing the ensuing spring the influx was
large and continued unabated until
almost every lot in the" township was
occupied within the course of a half
dem. years.
°
Among those who came in during the
winter of 1853-1854 was William Harris.
He settled at what was called "Bodmin,"
which was named after the country seat
of Cornwall, England, his native town.
Ho built a grist and sawmill there, the
present limits of the township.
The first school erected in the town-
ship was on Lot 11, on. G, tend the first
tetteher was Rebecca Vance, whose
family had conte from Napance and
settled in i3rucefield. Ray. Mr. Atkins"
(1V. C. Meth.) was the first minister who
over preached in the township. Ho
came first in the season of 1853 and dur-
ing the winter of 1853.54 used to travel on
Snow shoes, in "heavy marching order"
with his pack on his back. Mr. Atkins
preached for several years in the 'toe
IOsibins of the settlers, untie a church

By the year 1856 Morris, which with
Grey also bud been united for munici-
pal purposes with aleKillop, entered
upon an iudtptndtnt]y, orhtunized ex-
istence. The first Reeve was Charles
M. Parker, with Christopher Corbett,
William Wilsou, Jobii McRae and
Charles Forrest as Councillors; J. B.
Taylor. Clerk; John Laidlaw, Assessor;
Donald Scott, Collector. Mr Parker was

was returned for 1858, 1859, 1860, and
frotu 1852 tb 1866, beiug 'left" one year

1864 was the first in which "Morris w'as
