Lord •Saliebnry stated that a warrant to, take him into onetody world bobtailed, but he caused this ,decision.to become known to Lord Somer• set's commending officer, through whom • this information was conveyed to Somer- set.

Mr. Labonohere Then withdrew hie a notion. ; Attorney General„ Webster said hie be' Keyed the House would agree there watt net a shadow of foundation for these dhlgrace' tel charges. It was absurd to suppose that Lord Salisburyor the Treasury officials could have any, interest in retarding the prose-. • otltion in this case. The procedure in feat took the venal course. When. the evi- aenee was all in, it wee first collated with a 'view to the case against. Somerset. The opinion of she Lord Chancellor was then taken, and this opinion was that the evi- denoe•was insufficient to: justify prosecu- tion. Subsequently additional, evidence was obtained, and ibis rendered the issue ,ot a warrant advisable, but he had authority, to state that Sir Dighton Probyn, atter his interview with Lord Seltabury on this sub - jest, neither saw- nor communicated with 13omereet, either directly 'or indirectly. Whither had Lord 8aliebury any: knowledge • 01-Somerset'e movements to avoid the ser- 4wise of the warrant. Mr. Labonohere's story that Lord Salisbury informed Sir' , Dighton ,Probyn that a warrant was about to be issued 'was mere gossip. Mr. Labonohere, interrupting, offered to Write the name of his informant on a . slip of paper, and put the slip of paper into the hand of Sir Riobard Webster, leaving to Sir Richard the choice of disclosing or not dteolosing the name to the Hoose.' -- Sir Richard .Webster said Mr. Labon- obere could adopt whet course be chose. He himself had direct authority to contra- diot the allegation that Lord Salisbury had spoken to any one ,regarding the. issue of the warrant. Mr. L,bonohere geld he could not accept fair Richard Webster's aentrances, nor did he believe Lord Salisbury, whose denials were obviously 'untrue. The Chairman here requested the gof tl�e- nnan to withdraw the words calling\ into question the veracity of the Premier. Mr. Labonohere declined to withdrsty the words and the Premier named him for • •spension, and called ipon noth oftheeto adjudge upon the .,p, member. 6 • Upon division the euejj1 oa16h ~carried by 177 to 96.

A Windsor despatch of Thdredey night says : Two brothers named Fleming, of Cotsem, visited Windsor yesterday. They had Michigan Central railway tickets for Essex Centre, and were to have got on the train at Windsor station. One of them did so, bus the other wandered around the yard till be walked off the dock into the•river, from which he waerecovered wttb 000eider- able difficulty.

That the larger towns 'are alive to it is clearly evidenced in the promp'nese which which they seize on ex• cases for separation from' the oountieeto enter into business on their own a000nnt- It'e an expensive system, too, even were ite work well done. • A body of twenty, thirty, fifty men,doea+not transact bueineso rapidly or deliberately as a rule, and work requir- iitberation as isell• known, is usually left to small committees -a foot that tendo to prove the wisdom of reducing the nom. ber of councillors -and the routine work is often railroaded through. The fees and mileage of councillors make np a pretty' song little sum, and when the contingencies of the municipality require tome prompt action a special meeting is a costly addition to the annual bill. We are a very mnoh governed people and I think a'big hole in our pocket could. be closed up by reducing she number of County Councillors, i! we had to•relegate all work, outside of Dare of county property to the townships." My Flamboro' friend is not the first ebrewd farmer who has voiced the yiewe I have elated here. It is a general cense of complaint that " log -rolling" prevails in many, if not all, of the connty,bodiee. Indeed, it is 'as, inoperable fropn the system of representation by townships as in that of representation by wards in City Councils. This log -rolling kills time (and eome County Connoile testae time highly), wastes money and infl',ote- hardships in miry oases. How then ie is to bp abolished ? Clearly. it can not be aboliehedwhile each member of this large body owes hie ileo sten to a Fomenter section of the bounty and looks forward to re-election on the strength of what be oan seonre for his Don, etitdente iir,,the general game of grab. Ap- preciating that the evil is at least aggra- vaitel y the desire of each to-do or secure some eeotionel good or benefit that he may lay reasonable claim to local support on the strong plea of Belt - interest, some have advocated • making county couno,llors ineligible for a second term. For t*o potent' reasons this sug- gestion -is not to be seriously considered : It would et once deprive the county Donn cite of experienced members and -remove all inoentivee to acquire-facilityDand fami• harity ,in municipal politics; and, as it could net eradicate eelfiehneos, it would fail of it's object, if it did not aggravate the • evil, es.- each repreeentetive, knowing he would not have. another chance, might be depended on to nae every means at his command to get votes; for his own 0001102 of the oonnty.
