This eleotiou ie caused by the decease of the late Hon, Alex. Maokeuzie. The Conervetive candidate is W. F. Mao. Lean, of the Toronto World. No111t Perth electors are now iuto the tnrnlonl of another political contest. The nomination is on May 12,h and the elec- tion on May lath. The candidates are J. Grieve. of llorningtml, for the It • form refuse, and David Scrimgeour a well known resident of Stratford, for the Conservative. A worm tannest is outlet- pated as it is a Conservative riding with a Reform candidate returned at last eleo. tion. arm little sympathy will be wasted upon Robert H. MuGree'y, who has been sentenced to one year's imprisonment in gaol, a term which would have been shorter by six months, the judge informed him, had he not fled from justice. Mr. McGreevy is not suffering for his main offence, that of ooiepiritlg with his brother and the rest of the boodltng gang who preyed upon theDepartmeut of Pub- lic Works fur thire,eu years. This penalty was inflicted for conspiracy with Eugene Murphy to defraud iilichull Cona golly, another of the boodlers, out of the sum of four hundred thousand deflate by means of a note which yficbml Connolly seems to have drawn in favor of Mr. Murphy as a joke in a moment of idle folly. As compared with Sir Hector Langevin, Thomas McGreevy or Murphy, Robert McGreevy was, however, a mild offender against the country -Montreal Witness. NB= Monday will be observed in many plass., as Arbor Day and a large number will look after the planting of trees, shrubs, &e. Brussels will do web to fol• low this line this year. A. number of poplar trees have bean out down on the various streets, by somebody's authority, we suppose, and maples should replace them at once and now is the time to see to it. The trees wont come in them- selves, however, so if the work is to be done every resident who sees a vacant place for a tree should constitute him- self a committee to see that a maple is secured. Brusaele is Doted for its long rows of well kept shade trees and we want to keep up our reputation in this respect. The Agricultural Ground and Driving Perk requires some attention too in this particular. Clumps of maples should he planted in the Northeast and Northwest corners of this park and a few in the Southeast portion. The plane looks very bare now. What's the matter with making a bee on Monday and have this part of the work done in a little while ? If the officers of the two organi- zations interested would move conjointly the trees oould be got and planted with very little trouble to anybody. Keep Mouday in reserve for this. Perth t:ounty.
