• Home Rule Defeated.
Thescene in the English House of
Commons on Monday night was one
to be forgotten. The Rouse was
crowded from floor to ceiling. The
pone gallery was filled to overflowing,
and in the serried ranks of spectators
atooa many foreign ambassadors The
itrangers gallery was full tosuffocation.
ote Gladstone rose to speak at 11.30,
end was received -with loud and long
continued cheering. 81r Wm. Har-
court and Mr. Morley were on his right,
and Messrs. Childers and Mundella on
his left, Lord Hartington and Sir
Charles Dilke immediately behind, and
!dr. Chamberlain occupied a corner seat
on the second bench below the gangway,
close beside Mr. Main. Sir Michael
finks -Beach looked confident, Lord,
Balidolph Churchill nervously twirled
tis moustache, Parnell:sat between Sex-
ton and Thomas O'Connor and Messrs.
Dillon, Healy and O'Brien were near by.
Oadstone spoke with great energy.
Ifis thrusts at Chamberlain were keenly
zelished, and excited roars of laughter.
Chamberlain sat with his head- resting
-013, his left arm, not moving a muscle
•until Gladstone finished at L07 a. m.,
easing epoken one hour and forty min-
utes. The speaker finally put the ques-
tion, and a tremendous shout arose when
he asked those in favor to say "Aye,"
and an equally loud cry when he asked
for the "Noes." The speaker requested
the ayes to go to the right, and the noes
to the left. Messrs. Morley and Majori-
bankswere appointed:tellers for the ayes,
and Messrs. Brand and Caine for the
noes. The. members filed out rapidly.
At 11.15 a. m. they returned to their
sents,and the spa.ce below became crowd-
ed. Way was made for Gladstone. The
Irish members cheered the premier and
bowled at Chamberlain, but the latter
paid no attention to the derisive yells of
the Irish contingent. When Brand an-
nounced the result the pent-up excite-
ment culminated in fang, loud and tri-
umphant unionist cheers. The Conser-
vative rank and file shouted themselves
hoarse Chamberlain and Cain sat im-
movable, and the ministers appeared re-
signed. The Parnellites waited patient-
ly for the Conservatives to exhaust
themselves, and then en masse, at a con-
certed signal,they set up a louder shout.
A voice cried out, "Three cheers for the
grand old man r and, the house seemed
to rise at the call. It was an historical
scene, the ,greatest since the psssage of
the reform act in i832. Gladstone will
go to Scotland to confer with the Queen
when the cabinet has agreed upon dissolu-
tion of Parliament.
Howick. •
THE-IN$BRANcE Co -The di-
rectors of the Howick Mutual Fire In-
surance Company met at Dane's hall,
Gerrie, on Saturday last. The presi-
dent in the chair, and the members all
present. An unusual number of appli-
cations for insurance were handed in by
the secretary, 'all of which were care-
fully gone over and dealt with in a
thorough business like manner. A num-
ber of claims were also presented for
hoses sustained by fire and lightning.
We suppose this is one of the most diffi-
cult departments to deal with in the in-
surance business, and one that requires
great care, good judgment and sterling
impartiality, as in all cases of this nature
the directors are dealing as 'arbitrators
between the members a the company
and tadging from our observation of the
manner the directors dealt with these
cases. on Saturday, they are the right
men in the right pace. Being all suc-
cessful farmers themselves, they know
just how to deal with matters of this
kind. On Saturday the claim of Mr.
Munroe, of Minto, who, it will be re-
membered, lost his barn by fire a few
eks ago, was adjusted, the claimant
being paid the sum of $650, m-hich we
think was a just reward. Jalging from
the number of applications for payment
of cattle killed by lightning, flowick
must be a kind. af rendesvous for its
freaks. 'This is attributed by some
skeptics as one of the results of the
Scott Act, but there is net one director
who believes this. However, two steers
and one Iamb hame already come to an
untimely end by being struck by light-
ning. The steers were paid for, and also
the lamb.

What a Winnipeg Alderman
Has to Say.
Alderman Joseph Calloway, chairmen
of the Fire and Gas Committee of the
Winnipeg- city council, was in Toronto
the ether day and was hunted up and
interviewed by the city reporters. Mr.
Calloway is an old resident of this
-county, having spent his younger days
on a ferm in the township of Stanley,
and for several years was proprietor of
the 'British Exchange hotel in Goderich.,
He went to Winnipeg about six years
ago a poor man, but during boom times
he speculated extensively in land, and
as at one time reputed to be worth
half di million of dollars, but like many
others when the • boom burst he was
caught loaded down with real estate,
and now, although he is not worth as
much as he was, he is still well -fixed
and has won for himself a good, position
in Winnipeg cornMercial, municipal and-
.
social cirems.
On the occasion of his present visit to-
Oatario he formed one of the deputation
of the city aldermen- and Board of Trade
who visited Ottawa to lay before the
Government the necessity of improving
the navigation of the Red river, and at
the same time to present the views of
the people of the Northwest on the dis-
crimination of rates at the Canadian
Pacific Raihvay west of Winnipee-
against the, interests of the merchants of
that city.
The special. improvement of the naviga-
tion of the Red river asked. for, Aid.
'Calloway said to a Globe reporter, was
some means of overcoming the St. An
Rapids, 16 miles below Winni-
peg. This would give uninterrupted
navigation GOG miles from the head of
Lake Winnipeg to Fargo, Dakota.
Then, with the exception of the Grand
Rapids, at the mouth of the Saskatche-
wan, where transportation is made by
means of a tramway, there would be
steamboat navigation for 2,000 miles
from Winnipeg.
The Minister of the Interior informed
the depntation that he could not put
any sum_ in the estimates to go on with •
the work, but he promised to send en-
gineers to make an accurate survey, and
estimate the cost of the improvements
proposed. Their representations as to
the discrimination of rates were met sat-
isfactorily. They asked. for a reduction
01 20 per cent. between Winnipeg and
points west, and were accorded a re-
duction of 15 per cent. This concession
has already been put in force and gives
I the Winnipeg merchants -a force,
better
opportunity to compete _successfully
against those frone the Eastern Provioces
than they had previously.
Businessoirospects were never brighter
in the Northwest than they now are.
The country has passed through a most
severe financial depression, rendered the
-greateeby successive crop failures ; but
these seem to have been overcome, while
the crop this year prombies most favor-
ably. Mr. Calloway, who spent 36
years in Hurcei before he went to Win-
nipeg in 1881, says that the failures and
hardships of the settlers in the North-
west do not compare with those of the
settlers- in Huron. The immigration
this year is larger than ever before since
the opening up of the Northwest, and
the class of people who are flocking to it
18 mostdesitable.
• Winnipeg is looking splendid. It is
healthy, many buildings, are being
erected, and whereas last year a large
proportion of the house's were empty
they are now rapidly being filled up.

-Mitchell is greatly annoyed by the
want of a regitlation by-law for cattle.

cows, heifers and steers toa,m the com-
mons, and what is worse there is no
by-law under which the cattle can be
impounded or the owners prosecuted.

-The unusual mortality among
foals in this county is causing serious
apprehension. The nature of the trouble

Veterinary department of the Ontario

calling for investigation and prompt
preventive measures.
- -A family named Boyle had a nar-
row escape from beim,t'cremated in their
burning dwelling last week in St. Marys.
Mr. Boyle's brother was awakened. by a

repaid for loss of time and outlay.,
by the additional knowledge and ex-
• perience gained at these places.
--aA young stamp named Moody, who
left Mitchell some time ago secreted in
a car for Manitoba and got put off at
Toronto. returned homelast_ week. He
did the city of Toronteand got through
with the job in an 'amazingly short
time, so he thought he would return
and give his native towel an idea of his
city acquirements an' ccomplishments.
His first act was to s ta,
tal a watch from
the hostler at the Hicks House stables,
for which he fell into. the constables
hands but unfortunately made his es-
cape. His present location is unknown.
-On Tuesday evening last Week a
young 'cyclist from Stratford arrived
in St. Marys after having had a tether
taught experience on the road.He
was coming down a hill a short dis-
tance from the town and was being
pushed rather closely by some one
• driving a horse and buggy behind,
when unfortunately% his feet slipped
from the pedals and he lost control of
the wheel which rolled along at • a
dangermisfy rapid rate until it struck
a stone. Then the rider did the roll
ing. He was terribly shaken up- and
received a bruise on the face, bisides
• being, almost' smothered in the dust.
The "masheen" was also slightly dam-
aged.
• -At the Stratford policecourt, on
Saturday, 29th ult. a case was disposed
of which is of some interest and im-
portance to the travelling public, more
particularly to those who make use of
the bicycle as a means of locomotion and
to farmers and others traversing the
highways. It seems that- on Thursday
evening previous Mr Alexander Stewart,
a member of the Stratford Bicycle Club,
along with other Members of that club,
was enjoying a short ride in the country,
on his bicycle. Mr. Bernard Laverty, a
farmer of Downie, was also drivingialong
the same road in the same direction . and
upon behig approached by the bicycle
riders refused to allow them a fair or any
portion of the road to enable them to
pass. Mr. Stewart along with a number
of other riders succeeded in passing Mr.
Laverty who, havvever, at once whipped
up his horses anddrove his team against
Mr. Stewart's bicycle from which he was
thrown with great violence, rendering
him for a time unconscious.. The
unfortunate rider and his wheel
both suffered considerable damage from
their contact with Laverty's wagon,
and were both disabled for the time being.
The Stratford bicycle club, determined
to assert the undoubted right of wheel -
men to a fair portion of the road, took
tip the case and Laverty was summoned
to ansteer a charge of assault before the
police magistrate on Saturday. Upon
the case being called Mr. Laverty entered
a plea, of guilty and was •fined $50 and
cOSts. .The magistrate in imposing the
fine, eomminted very severely npon the
"aanduct-of Mr. Laverty, which, he said
Might have occasiolfed very serious in-
jury to Mr Stewart,and intimated that
farmers who acted at times as if they
owned her Majesty's highways in the
country, shOuld take a lesson from the
case, and learn to recognise the rights of
oIthers, inclnding bicycle riders.
-Miss Jeanie Watson, the celebrated
Scottish vocalist, died suddenly at her
home, 22 Price street, St. Paul's ward,

November after an absence of some
years in the United States.
