SEAFORTH, FRIDAY, Pace 18, 1S91.
The Quebec Government Dis-
missed.
The recent calm in Quebe.c politics is
to be followed by a violent storm, which
has just . commenced. Lieutenant -Governor
Angers yesterday diamissed the Mercier
Government, and it is said he will call on
Mr. DeBoucherville to form a Government.
The letter of dismissal has not yet been
made public so that anything that may be
exid as te reasons for the dismissal is sinsply
speculation. It is evident, however, that
the Governor has assumed a very grave re-
sponsibility and thet tlie Conservatives of
Quebec are pleying a desperate game for
power,
Mr. Vowat's S.econd Manifesto.
Hon. Oliver Mowat has Written another
letter on the subject of the political union
of Canada with the United States. This
letter, althOugh addressed to Hois. Alexan-
der McKenzie, was written for publication,
and a,ppeered in the Globe of Monday. It
la very lengthy, and occupies ten columns of
the Globe Efe starts out by a reference to
Unrestric ed Reciprocity, of which h3 heart-
ily approveee previding a treaty can be ne-
gotiated which would not be prejudicial to
our present relations 'with Great Britain,and
it is his opinion thet such a treaty in its
operations. would not work either for or
against political unien. In the second place
he eaters at great length into a defence of
the leadere of the Liberal party against the
insinuations ma,in in some quartera that
they are favorable to political union, and
makes lengthy quotations from various
sources to prove his position. He then
states his objections to political union,whieh
are, 1st, The extreme hostility of the Ameri-
can people against Britein aud British in-
stitutions ; 2ad, The United States consti-
tutional system, embracing and fostering as
it does, an elected judiciary ; a non -per-
manent civil service, and irresponsibility of
the heads of the public departments. to the
people, they being appointhd for a fixed
period and then being excluded from Parlia_
ment ; 3rd, The sentimentel considerations
of loyalty to the " Old Flag." He con-
cludes with a strong expression of confidence
in the loyalty, ability and honesty of Sir
Wilfred Leurier, Sir Richard Cartwright
. and the other Libcral leaders, and a power-
ful appeal to Liberals generally to continue
to them their united support, and in this
way secure the benefits of Reciprocity for
the country.
It ie needless for ris to say that we do not
propose to combat or attempt th combat Mr.-
Mowat's arguments. We are only sorry
that so able a man has not been able to make
out a stronger case., It seems to us that hie
letter, at thepresent time, is entirefy super-
fluous, and that it will tend to help rather
than hinder the movement he so earnestly
combats. ln the firat piece, his longmd
labored defence of the loyalty of the Lib -if -el
leaders is entirely unnecessary. None but
those who ere well paid for their ser -
vied, think of accusing them of aught
bat the sincerest loyalty to Great
Britain and especially to Canada,
and censequently they require no defence
in this direction, and especially from so
powerful an agency as the honored and able'
Premier of Ontario. ln the second place he
destroys the effect of his whole argument by
the following admission, which his natural
honesty forced him to make. After eefer-
ring to the hostile feeling in the United
States towards Great Britain, he adds :
But for this animosity in the United
States the question of political union with
that country would present itself to British
Canadians under very different conditions
from those actuttlly existing: One of the
strongest objectiens to political union would
be removed if the time should come when
that unreatonable animosity passes away
from the national mind. The poli•tical union,
on a satisfactory basis, of two communities
of the SAM origin, both alike friendly to the
mother land of both, might be no shock
either ts our fellow subjects across the At-
lantic or to the Loyalists of Canada, if other
coneiderations could be got over. Such a
political ension might then be acquiesced in
by roAny preent opponents of union, and
might be even hailed by thorn as the pre-
cursor of the political union for common
objects of ell Englieh speaking countries,
including those whose populations may not
be wholly Eriglislaspeickieg, This, again,
humeniteriens would like to think,
might be followed by the union of all civil-
ised nations for objects common to them
ail, including the ahandbriment of the
enormous armies which have now to be
kept on foot for their defence against one
another.
This, certainly, would be a grend and
glorious conaurnmation which both Cana-
diana and Americans might proudly aspire
to end earnestly work for. And if political
union is ever brought about we fancy it will
only be on just such conditions as Mr.
Mowat lays down above. As for the ani-
.
mosity, tt does not amount to very much on
either side of the line, for it exiets on the
one side ad well as on the other. It is being
kept alive only by pelitical demagogues for
pureoses, and even to this extent
it is . so rapidly dying out with A fair in-
terchange of commerce it would very eoon be-
come extinot,ae eveu now among the most of
the people ouboth sides there exist only
the inomt friendly reed kindly' feelings. . To
our mind the strengest point made .by Mr.
Mowat is dontained in the following para-
graph : .
In case; of annexation Canada would be no
more. It would, as a political organization,
I be effaced from the map of the world. An-
nexation weuld be an absolute transfer of
,
thie great country and all its resourcee and
IFederal intere.sts fro n its owu people to the
1 people of the United.Stetes, The, repitesen-
, tatives at Wieshingthn. of our 5,000,00 of
1 people would be out -Weighed • twelve times'
1 over by the representatives of the 63,000,000
1 who occupy the present St ctes of the Uiiion.
Mr.. Mowat does ntagive the Independ-
. erita munh encouragement. The ground he
takes on this questimt is, we think; indisput-
able when he sees :

Mr. Mowat has gr at faith in the power
i
of sentiment. He thinks it -is Sentiment
which in a thousand vays rules the world.
Perhaps it is ; but se f-intereet, has a good -
dealt° do with it to . His argument on
this line is so well an wered in the editorial
columns of the Globe that we give the ex-
tract in full. In revci wing this part of Mr.
Alowat's letter the Cd ise--says :
Sentiment is a grea force, but it has its
limits. The dentime tal attachment of the
British peopls to theii Sovereign, who is the
symbol of their coltinuous existence, has
always been profoundli; yet it did not pre-
vent them from deposhig and slaying some
of their kings at a time, too, .when the
divine right was a ficurishing (1th:trine, so
little did their loyalty count when it came
into colliaion with their material interests,
Sentiment in the form of love for home and
kindred is sentiment t its strongest, neverl
theless dhring the last ten years a million
native and European -born Canadia.ne have
cressed the line for gdod and all solely to
better their material fhrtunes. In 1878 Mr.
George Brown oppess the National. Policy,
principally .on the round that it would
weaken British conn etion. His articles
were pitched in &high key and produced a
great effect upon nice • Liberals; but Sir
John's defiant cry o -"So much the wcrse
for the 'connection " rang from the Tory
platforms and swept tFe country in conjunc-
tion with his scheme for making everybody
rich by taxation. Fro these and other ex-
amples which might b quoted we may con-
clude that it would ha dly be eafe for any
Canadian party to rely altogether upon an
appeal te sentiment for the maintenance of
the connection with B itain. 1
That is just what we think, and thus far
it is maiuly sentiment hat haa been employ-
, ---
ed -by all the great guni who have spoken or
written on that side of !the subjeet.
The Ball altd Chain.
Grip had a cartoon in its issue of last week
which, hits off to a nice fy the 'Imperial Fed-
eration fad, which some very good and very
loyal men are now ad locating. They pro-.
gi,
fess to believe that En land will I!consent to
lay a duty on imports from all fox;eign coun-
tries and admit those from Canada and the
other colenies free. Th arrangement would
be a very good one for the colocies, but it
is the improbability of England ,doiugetny-
thing of the kind that! Grip brings out so
nicely in its cartoon. We have Sir Charles
Tupper, CaroadA's Hi h Commissioner in
England, with a chain n one hand and his
plug hat in the other. Attachedto one end
of this chain is a collar, and to the other end
a large ball. The colt r is labelled "Pro-
tection," and the ball has inactibed on it,
" Dear Bread, Scarcit , Sufferiing, Rebel-
lion." The chain has a tag attached to it,
on which are the word , " Disriminating
Duties in Favor of t e Colonies on Im-
ports," 'In front of Si Charles is a great, -
big, burly Englishman with a dark frown on
his face, and in the back ground are the
English Premier and his great opponent,
Mr. Gladstone, looking n with an amused,
emile on t ach counts nice. Sir. Charles,
with blandest face a d a most cunning
smile, holding out the hain towarde John
Bull, asks, " Would yell mind putting this
on, Mr. Ball, toeoblige the colonies ?" To
which modest request Mr. Bull replies,
" What do you take m for ?" In its com-
ments on the cartoen G ip puts,the case very
plaiuly thus :
Sir C. Tupper is not lone in his notion
that John Bull will com round in due time
to the views of the Imp Hal Federationists.
In Canada there are to e found intelligent
men who have in some ay convinced them-
eelves that there is a pos bility of this. The

True, the Annexatio trweement is mostly

what does the Edito of the Telegram

cooped up all his life with the

and puffed out on th fruits of the N. P.
They don't want any hange,—not they !
They are quite satisfied ith things as they
are, as well they may be, and, of course,
they are super -loyal. B it, let the Telegram
man come out of the fe id atmosphere in
which he has been livine nd inhale the pure,

per cent. during the past ten years ; whose
horses are in their stalls unsalable ; -whose
last spring's lambs are eti 1 in the fold, and
whose sons are in the Un ted States and are
prospering while they are retrograding,
and he will probably hemp his mind
as to whether the peopl are satisfied with
things as they are. It doe not do for people
who know so little to talk so wisely, ae they
only make of themselves subjects for jest
by so doing.

Winghamites. After about one hour of the
usual quarreling, they got to work. The
game was pretty even but towards the last
the Bluevalities showed their superiority
although they hdd not enough of it to score.
SOIREE.—The soiree, in connection with
the Presbyterian Church here, on Monday
evening, was a success. In spite of the
elements, which always seem to be against
like occasions here, a very lerge number of
people partook of the good things that were
provided by the ladies of the congregation,
_
at the Forester's Hall, After all had done
ample justice to the inner man at the hill,
and the rather dampened apirits of those who
had come from a dietance were made cheer-
ful by the influence of that easy end brilliant
place, all repaired to the church to enjoy
the literary part of the programme. The
pastor,Rev.A. Hartley,in his usnal pleas-
ant manner occupied the chair, a fact which
has not a little to do with the invariable sac-
cers that attends our eptertednments here.
Rev. Mr. Walwin, of Bluevale, mule a few
pleaeantremarks, and then left- the platform
in favor of his brethren, who had come front
a distanee. Revs. Messrs, Ross, of Brus-
sels, andeflughes, of Wingham, gave excel-
lent addresses. In the course of his addrees
Mr. Rose : Young men should have a
purpose in life, a plan, push and persever-
ance, their actions should be guided by
principle, Mr. Hughes spoke of the eocial
relations of preacher and people ; people
should aid the preacher by a criticism of his
sermons to himself ; they should be social
in their relations to preacher 'and congre-
gation, aboup be liberal, should be peace-
makers, &c. • The lectures were very inter-
esting and instructive, and the manner in
which they wen listened to and applauded
showed that they were highly appreciated.
Mr, George Duffield, of Wingha , sang m
his usual pleasing manner. He as become
quite a fa,vorite with a Bluevale audience,
as was amply testified by the !mid encores
that greeted his performances. Mr. Gracey,
of Winghain, gave some select readings.
Mr. Gracey is too well and favorably known
to need any comment here. We may add,
however, that he out did himself on this
occasion. Its a mercy the home did not
come down when he read selection from
"Innoceuts Abroad," and Mr. Brown
has got hie hair eute" The vocal and in-
strumental performances of the Wingham
Quartette club, composed of the Misses
Watson, were simply gtand, and it would be
diffi-cult te say,which the audience appreci-
ated most their performance on the violin or
their songs. ,The Missts Watson have rare
talent, and their excellent taste in selections
together with their natural and easy man-
ner, sa free from stagey ways, are sure to
make them favorite's, We are almoet too
modest to say that the sekctions by our
choir were well rendered and well received,
and were in every respect worthy of mentiArt
here. The soiree was in every way a suc-
cess, and the young people under whose
managPment it was conducted ars to be
congratulated. The worst feature -was the
going home. It was, indeed, Tam O'Shanter
weather, and " skelping on through dib and
mire " with the not too refreshing rain,
pouring down, was anything but pleasant.

Cotneett.—The Council ,met, at Kyle's t
Hotel, on December 14th. The Reeve ar-
rived late, being detained by the illnees of
his father, the chair wits taken by -Mr.
Weber, when the local Board of Health,
through its chainnan, Mr. J. McGee, pre-
sented the annual report. It referred briefly
to thenatiefactory sanitsry condition of the
township and the comparative, absence of
all malignant or contagious diseases, only
one, and that doubtful, case of typhoid
fever came to the knowledge of the hoard,
a few complaints of unsanitary conelitioes
were received. The causes of complaint
were readily removed by the parties. The
report wahaccepted. Accounts galore were
presented and paid. The late freshet hav-
ing considdrably swollen the list, quite a
number of culverts were displaced and em-
bankments damaged, but fortunately none
of the large bridges suffered. A statement
of accoutts paid would be very dry reading
fcr your numerous subscribers, interesting
to but a few of our ratepayers and these
we refer to our printed financial statement,
which will appear in a few days, One pay-
ment of unusual character was the funeral
expenses of the late R. Simpson, whose body
was found on the town line, near Chisel -
burnt, where he died from strong drink and
exposure. What a pity it is that the leechee,
who fatten on the vices of their weak fellow
mcn, cannot be made tc feel the laid' of the
law, the lash of a guilty eonecience they
must feel. The annual meeting of the elect-
ors for the nomination of candidates to fill
the offices of reeve, deputy reeve and three
councillors, for the year 1892, is to be held
at Dixon's Hall, Brucefield, on Meerlay, De-
cember 28th, at noon, If a vote is necessary,
polls will be opened at the usual places with
the usual deputy returning offices's, except
in No, 1. where the poll will be taken at
Mr. A. M. Ross' wagon shop, Mr. Joseph
Weber acting as deputy returning officer.
The Council will meet on the morning of
nomination day, at Dick.on's Ball, Brueo-
field, at 9 o'clock.—S. SMILLIE, Clerk.
