TRE Ontario Millers' Convention has adopted a memorial to the Government praying it to appoint en independent commission to which the control of all railways may be entrusted and by this action it has set an example to all other trade bodies. As the millers of Ontario are dependent upon the railways, and the treatment they rre•ive from them, for success in their busines', they are very deeply concerned in the railway problem and are perhaps more seriously affected by the evils of the present sys- tem than any other class of business men. Their declaration in t tern. of an inter -provincial railway ,;ommission should, therefore, have weight with both the Government and the public. As thin;:( ere at present in Ontario, the rail- ways are free to give to cue miller special privileges, such as a special rate to ver tain tnarkets, 1 or a grinding-in•tranait c3ncesaion, and refuse it to another in a neighboring town. The plain meaning of this is that they can take the business away from one man and give it to an- other. American railways have used their power to do this in order to con- centrate the business, and have made one miller rich and have ruined his neighbor merely because it was more convenient to take freight from one man than from two.

It is said that Miss 11ary Wanamaker, the eldest daughter of the Postmaster I General, will next season make her debut in Washington society. Though but just 1 out of her teens Miss Wanamaker is a Of young lady of many accomplishments jand great beauty. During her recent sojourn with her mother and sister abroad she has studied diigently to per. Ilett herself in mucic anal languages, and her advent into the social life of the Capitol will doubtless add yet another to the attractive list of young ladies to assist in dispensing the hospitalities of a Cabinet home. Ia the hundreds of Anti -Jesuit resolu- tions mean anything and the thousands of signatures on petitions bearing on the same question are an expression of pub. lie sentiment ; and if the "noble thir- teen" deserve all that has been said to them why was not Dr. Macdonald, M. P. of East Huron, a resident of Wing- ham, and one of the thirteen, invited to I address the Orangemen on the 12th of July ? An explanation by those who ar- I ranged the program is in order as it looks as if the wire -pullers had a hand in it. i The least that might have been done was to have invited him to a seat on the platform. Dr. Macdonald's vote was either right or wrong. If the former, as the Grand Lodge L. 0. L. says, he should have had an opportunity of saying a few words on the subject had he seen fit. THE Toronto News says : Mr. Lepine, who figured in the first rebellion in the Northwest, bat who showed his wisdom in refining to take part to the eeeond, !vent over to Parte to sen the exhibition, and is being lionized is the gay capital as one who struck a deadly blow against British power in America. It is a very good record to travel on in France, or even nearer home, but how will Mr. Lepine explain when he comes back ? To a man who has declared his loyalty, and who admitted that he was in error when he joined Riei, it must be awkward to be entertained as a traitor when away from the country which generously par- doned him. Washington Letter. (From our Regular Correspondent.) wisatuoTox, July 12,'50. An impression seems to be getting abroad that President Harrison is ,devot. fag his entire time to the consideration of the distribution of offices. It is as• unwed that when he is not receiving and talking with office seekers he is hard at work looking at the papers filed by them in support of their claims of recognition. The truth is, however, that the 7.'resi- dent gets to work at 9 o'elook in the morning, and, except during a short while for meals and a few minutes every other day to shake hands with the public, is busy from that hour until 10, the earliest, and until usually 11180 o'clock at night. Out of this days work the only time he gives to office seekers is between 11 and 12, and not all of this do they get. The rest of the time is devoted to public business. If it were not the neglect would soon become apparent. The Samoan matter, the Haytian affair, the question of calling an extra session of Congress, are things that everybody knows about that have occupied consider- able of the President's attention. While the Samoan matter has been settled and an extra session of Congress practically decided on, the Haytian affair still calls for attention. The oNil eervioe law and the organizing of the commission has re. quited attention. But these are by no means all the public questions the Presi- dent has been occupied with. There are questions of finances and general public policy coming over from the Treasury, They have not been neglected, From the Department of Justice have Dome many matters that he has been obliged to devote time to, and some of them in. volving life or death. From the Interior department, also, many important pub- lic matters have claimed bis attention. '!'here is not a department that is not end has not been presenting public matters for his consideration. The quetzal] of appointments is thrust upon him and most got attention. Thu im• portunities after office annoy him. Some appointment( are of public importance and all that, but it is not so thattho Pt'seident is only occupied by the die. tribtttion of patronage.

Presbytery of Maitland. The regular meeting of the Presbytery of Maitland was held in Wiugham, ou Tuesday of last week, there being pre. sent :—Rev. Messrs. Stevenson, (modes. ator,) McNab, (clerk,) Law, McKinnon, Sutherland, Davidson, Anderson, Camer- on, McRae, Brown, McQaeeu and Mo• Quarrie. The meeting was opened with devotional exercises. The call given by Chalmers' church, Kincardine and Ber- vie to Bev, D. A. McLean, of Kemble and Sarawak, was sustained. It was signed by 115 members and 2S5 adher- ents. The salary promised is 5500. Messrs. Henderson and Campbell testifi- ed the heartiness of the call. Mr. McNab was appointed to prosecute the same be- fore the Owen Sound presbytery. The call from Whitechurch and Calvin church, East Wawanosh, to Rev. W. H. Geddes wns also sustained it being large- ly signed. Mr. Jameson, of Calvin church, and H. D. Henderson, of White- ohuroh, represented the interested con- gtegdtidtia. The salary promised is $810.1 The induction is to take place at White- church on Thursday, the 25th of July— Rev. Mr. Forest to preach, Mr. Cameron to preside, Mr. McQueen to address the minister and Mr. McRae the people, A case from Belgrave was disoassed and adjudicated on for a oouple of honre. Mr. Wigtitmon, an elder, an native and consistent member of the church, having bad some disagreement with his session, considered it his duty to sever his con- nection with that church and( made the request that the usual certificate of mem. bership be given him. This the session saw fit to refuse, notwithstanding the fact that Mr. Wightman had always been a consistent member and active worker in the church and that he had never been made the subject of discipline or had any charge preferred against him. The fact appeared to be admitted that Mr. Wight - man was entitled to bis certificate, but the court appeared unwilling to reflect on the action of the session. After lengthy diecuselon, it was decided to send a delegation to ascertain more fully the case. The presbytery then adjourned. -RA1BSZ" A..R,' R1`AG ES_._1 Handsome Display Baby Carriages in all the LATEST STYLES, and sold at ItassamaRas Plums: Catl in and See our Stock before you order elsewhere.
