T/iknE are no new Daminien Voters'
Lists to I'e prepared this year, if the
Bill un v before the Dominion Periiarnent
passes in the shape it was introduced.
The last section reads as follows:—"It
shall not be necessary that any revision
of the lists of voters prepared in a000rd•
ante, with the provisions of the Domin-
ion Electoral Prancbiee Act shall be pro-
ceeded with during the present year,
1889, but the lista of voters in force at
the time of the passing of this act shall
continue in force until the same are
finally revised, In accordance with the
provisions of the said act in the year
1890." In accordance with this anybye-
elections held for the House of Commons
during 1889 and 1800 will take place on
lists five yeare old and all young men be-
tween 331" ages of 21 and 20 will be dis-
franchised until 'Smellier 31st, 1890.
Tris Dominion government have re-
jected Mr. Mulook's proposition that art-
ificial fertilizers imported by farmers
should be admitted fr.-0 of duty. Ir tatt-
ing this course the ministers show olear-
ly that they are hostile to the agricul-
tural interests of the country. The
mauufaoturers aro allowed to bring in
their raw material free of duty, but the
raw material of. the farmers is to bo
taxed. By alloying the free introduc-
tion of rate materials used in the manu-
feature of cottons tbo governm0ut admit
that the duty is paid by the mummers.
They also admit that the duty on corn
used 1n whiskey -making is paid by the
distiller who imports it, because they
allow him a refund of duty when he ex-
ports the product of the corn. Hence,
according to the principles adopted by
the government in dealing with the sub-
ject of duties and rebates, the farmer
pays the duty upon the fertilizers he
imports, and the tax upon manures is a
bnrdml upon the agriculturists.—Free

It was 1 o'clock Wednesday when the
Senators, headed by President pro tem
Ingalls, marched into the Hoose to take
part iu counting o£ the electoral vote.
The audience for the ceremony was a
long time ahead of hint. All the gal.
leries of tho House except the executive
and diplomatic were crowded when the
House met at 12 o'clock, and the people
had been struggling at the doors some
tune before that, By good managemeut
on the part of the doorkeepers people
were seated, tis long as there wore seats
to be had, without 001110si011, except that
of tongues, During the prayer by the
011091a:n of the House there was co+o-
parative quiet, but during the rest of the
time until the joint session was assembl-
ed and Mr. Ingalls held the gavel, several
thousand voices were impelled by several
thousand tongues into a perpetual
prattle. The big sofas and chairs from
the lobby were placed in front of the
Speakers desk and all other available
space was occupied by chairs. A resp.
lotion was adopted admitting ladies to
the floor and soon many goy bonnets
added Dolor to the picture spread before

If things era as they appear, and Mr.
Campbell succeeds in girt.Mg the pe ilio 1,
we believe the large majority of the people
of the town and neighborhoo 1 will end ,roc
his appointment. Mr. C+nnpb.11 is com-
petent to f1ll the position in every par-
gooier
ar.
tfooier; he is an old resident of the town,
and, barrio his politics—which are the
most rigid kind of Tory—is not a bad
fellow. Ile has boon a hard worker for
the Tory party, and has sacrificed tone
and means in endeavoring to "elevate the
standard," so to speak. During the last
election he was, outside of the 1a 30100te,
the greatest Conservative hustler in the
Riding. We cannot „ay th0t we love him
any more oil that account, but we repeat
what wo said before, for we aro willing to
give the devil hie due : If Campbell re.
ceives the appointment there will be none
to question his fitness, and few to dis vete
his right to occupy the position. Even
the "Ottawa delegation" would wheel into
line if Mr. Campbell's appointment were
gazetted at an early doy,
G003303031 11I0 131e0r8110s.--Tho follow-
ing facts are taken from the report of
the Inspector of Jails, for the year ending
September, 1888 : Ill that year 117 males
and 18 females were committed to Gocle-
ri6'trjail, being an increase of 60 over
the previous year. In 1887 there were
no commitments to Godorieb jail for
drunkenness, but in 1888 when the Scott
Act was not in force, there was 4. Of
those committed all but 7 were over 10
years of age. 61 were sent up for the
11ra't time, 21 for the second, and 19 for
the tb1'td. The offence Qthat the largest
number in this county committed was
vagrancy. Only one�prisouer went from
this county direct to the Central Prison.
The religious denominations of the pris-
oners were as follows : 24 Roman aitb0-
lics ; 37 churoh of England ; 25 Preeby-
terians and 35 Methodists ; 39 were tem-
perate, while 91 were intemperate, show.
ung oloarly that inlemperanee is a mese
of prime. 23 wits the highest number
confined iu the jail at one time and 7
the lowest. The average cost of keeping
each prisoner, whioh inolndes food, ()lath-
ing, fuel and jail salaries, was $21.94.
The following is the official report of Dr.
O'Rielly concerning 3118 jail ; "Much in-
convenience is experienced in the man-
agement of this jail owing to its size be-
ing inadequate to the wants of the county.
There are three corridors for males and
one for females. The first named will
accommodate 9 prisoners and the latter
three, while during the year there have
been in melody at one tinge as many as
15 males and 7 females. It is easy to
see that it is impossible to accommodate
5o many prisoners in this jail, and that
any attempt at prober classification is
quite out of the question. So far book'
as the year 1878, my preciooessor in of-
fice called attention to the overcrowded
condition of the jail, elle a requisition
was made upon the County Council, un-
der the terms of the Inspection Act, to
appoint 11, special committee to confer
junct to a well ordered town. Auv 013„e doto1 Normandie last night, Behind with the inspector on the subject. For
