As • further sasaraaue I have reosived a note from tho editor of The Dior. who possitively Mates that the p.ra.nph in question was Inserted merely sea joke and that I had no ociemotion wltb it. It teems that one or twe bu.y-bodies have taken the alleged telegram seriously, and that is the reason why I now write to dry that the whole thing was bogus, ant was originated as • lark to set the guys grinning. D.' idcDotiLD. Godortoh. Erav 1,1WL' . THE GODERICi1 DOST OFFICE Brussels Yost (Liberal): 1t is currently rumored that if Postmaster Campbell, of Goderioh, is removed that D. Mc1;,Ulouddy, of THs SIGNAL, formerly Of Brussels, will be his successor. Ws wood the motion And feel assured that -he will 11;1 the bill splendidly. If herd work for the Liberal party counts for eiiything Mr. MoGilliouddy has • strong claim.

Thea the party oars go to -- ' ! ! Mr. Cameron has made many sacrifices fcr the party and himself, and would capably till the position he &o- pine to, but The News•Reoord falls to see any olaims for the P v. as/tent. Post- master Campbell should bo allowed to hold bis poeiMoo, hat if the Crit. are bound to pitchfork him out we most confess that Dantel McGillicuddy is well ga•litid for the position aad has stronger claims than any other man in West Harm. New Era (Liberal) : To our mind • strong point In the evidence relating to the Code - rich postotlloe investigation, apparently un- favorable to the postmaster, is the oiroum• stenos that some of the business men seem• 'ugly had not 000fldenoe in the postal de- partment to mail their letters at the post otfioe, but felt compelled to mail them at the station. We may be placing more im- portance on th's than we should, but taking akastridem. at.itolamnsaine.- AM .n undesirable sate of strain. The pubito must have 000fideoos in the absolute money and security ,of the postal authorities and there must be some reason for any other sate of feeling. 11 ammo to be taken for granted that Mr. Campbell will lose hie position, and there is considerable local ex - o tement as to who shell get it. We do not pretend to know who .re aspirants for it, nor do wi presume to know the particular claims of thong who may be looking after it. but we believe that D.

The gentlemen in the oast were hardly as strong in their part* as the ladies, although the characters of Dick Deadeye. by C. R. 'thane, the Admiral, by James Thomsen, and the Boatswain, iq A. E. Forte, were well maiotate.d. The chor- uses were very well rendered, while the stage fixtures and oostumes were pretty and appropriate. The exoellent orchestra with the oompany added greatly in the produo- tion of the opera. Taking the company ool• leotively, their rendering of thia obarming opera was above the average, and far in ad• vanoe of many so-called professional oom• panics, and we are sore the people of Gde- rioh have good reason to be proud of the musical and dramatic alert of iLeir town, as displayed in Pinafore.
