Our Gollogiate Institute is to have a commencement day this year, after gregulations reopecting 17 cliools and Voile late Institutes Whatever iatay have peen the cause of M0Dalton-McOarthy's fox'84113g his party, there .can be nr, ,dispute over the fact that he has entirely cut }tigi- self loose • from his former politi friends, and.is now just as much in eitiOn pn as any, memlier�of the -f;" party, Mr McCarthy. in self-defe claims that he "'is still a Conservat that having seen the error of his fo attitude on the trade and ot questions, he is honest and , indepen- dent enough to acknowledge it, and try to do better for the future. And it seems to us his position is one that should commend itself, not only to other men in public life, but to the large class who are ranged on either political side. In the ordinary ethics of life we are taught not so much to have fixed and unalterable views of various moral questions, but to hold these views, subject to amendment and change,as our Moral standard becomes enlightened. As the expanse of thought becomes broader, and men become more liberal in their ideas, their moral views undergo a change to a greater or less extent. It is perfectly right that they should, if based upon conviction, and the world is the better for it, be- cause the broader the mental vision and the realization of the underlying principles, the more likely are people to be right. If this holds good in moral questions, why not in political? Why should it be right for men to change their views on moral, and wrong to change them in politics? If a man yields to the dic- tates of conscienceand judgment in one instance, why not in the other? Are political questions, no matter from which side they emanate, so absolute- ly perfect that there can be no two opinions concerning them? And if they are not perfect, why should not any number of Liberals or Conserva- tives hold diverse views on sinal ass questions? cal , op ma e provision for sue a day, upon which iplomas may xij'esen f ed to the successful students, tc,, The Board nc $ d has e tab t e h t , I n natter up and has appointed a committee to ive; make all necessary arrangements. dim- The purpose is to make an annivers- t er fry day to which all the students and friends of the school may look forward to and back upon with delight—a red letter day in the year—a gathering upon which graduates and undergradu- ates may unite for a day's pleasure, and upon which the friends of the students may gather together to cheer and encourage thein as they settle down to another tussle for knowledge. The day fixed upon by the board is the second Friday after the opening of the school, which this year falls upon the 14th of September. We hope that the citizens will en- courage and help the board in its laud- able desire to advance the interests of the school, and to develop the social element amongst the students and their friends, by means of which the trials attendant upon the acquisition of knowledge may be lightened, and the path which leads to it may be, to some extent, strewn with flowers. • Party exigencies,' ave evidently made 't necessary that men shall be pa =TX that they shall not have fteQm ,i .. of thought and liberty of ac - Lion; that they shall do as the party leaders desire and dictate under all ir ccumstances, It is against such iron -bound part- izanship that Mr McCarthy and a few ers are rebelling, and as they secure ertain following, they are doing good to the extent of their influence. True, they may not get political stand- ing and recognition such as people are accustomed to look for, but their at- titude has a beneficial effect on the community 'atelarge, by broadening the range of political vision, and in time the result thereof will be felt. ii'ipleasant personalities, oth s just behind the band a c ,I is'reported that Wellman's polar cp)!oriing party has perished.

The Patrons have decided to protest the election of Hon. Mr Harcourt. A protest has been lodged against the return of Hon. J. M. Gibson, for West Hamilton.4. against the returrntof Robt. has been entered Liberal, for South Renfrew. A protest will be entered against the return of A. T. Gurd, P. P. A. member for West Lambton. "If Sir Oliver c nnot weather the gale for the next ur years nobody else can," is the safe conclusion of the Hamilton Herald. A protest has been lodged against Dr: Ryerson, for East Toronto. The object is to disqualify him if possible, and the outcome will be awaited with much interest there. It was freely re- ported that he paid $5,000 for the East Toronto nomination, and the Liberals want to get at the truth of this. In addition to the usual catalogue of election sins there are charges that money was given, or promised lodges, societies and corporations to be cor- ruptly used. This refers to the P. P. A. organization. A Con- servatives arelbeginning sato take heart. They will protest a large number of seats, which they think they can cap- ture. But the Liberals also count on strengthening themselves in the bye - elections. They think if they can op- en a Conservative seat the prestige of Nmay help them.to win. The drawback to all this is that the field is limited. The Conservatives only have 27 or 28 seats, and but few of those are assailable. On the other hand, neither party can afford to try and unseat the Patron members, for fear of estranging that vote. The Cow Pasture Up the Lino It is about time a stringent cow by- law was put in operation in Goderich. This town has a bigger ambition than to be rated as a cow pastime. —Goderich Signal. In conversation with Dr, Edward Richardson that the Goderich had no ber y --law against cows and cattle running at large upon the streets. No wonder that town; which Nature has given such a pretty location, should ghave so few summer tourists. Just imagine a herd of from five to twenty hn,lf starved mongrel cows assembled at the center of the hub at noon time. pushing, crowding and fighting for the first drink nut of the fountain, or rather what should be a fountain, in a pretty town of 5,- 000 inhabitants. Picturesque and de- cidedly odd, but certainly not an at- tractive feature for strangers to gaze upon. We would suggest to the may- or and council that they change the name of their sand enoughtotshuthe cowswup like other towns, as Goderich is not at all appropriate, Oow(e)rich would be much better.—Aylmer Express. Town and County Church Chimes. Rev Mr Malcolm, of Teeswater, has been chosen Moderator of Maitland Presbytery. Rev Mr Martin, of Exeter, and Rev A. Stewart, Clinton, exchanged pulpits on Sunday last. The Goderich District meeting of the Method t':t church, will be held at Sea - forth, On Aug. 10. The Presbyterian church atBelgrave, and Calvin; East Wawanosh, will be declared vacant on Sunday, the 5th day of August next.

Ussher, deputy provincial registrar, was accident- ally drowned in the lake, off Mimic¢, on Monday. Wm. Balkwill, aged 21, son of Isaac Balkwell, was drowned at Port Stanley on Tuesday. He missed his footing and fell into the water while stepping from the dock to the scow. Protests were entered on Tuesday at Os- goode Hall against the return of Hon J. M. Gibson for West Hamilton, and Dr. G. S. Ryerson for East Toronto at the reoent Provincial elections. The Hay Trade Journal is in receipt of advices from England, France, Scotland and Germany, which say the largest orop of hay known in several years has been secured in excellent condition. Owing to the hay famine last year in Switzerland all surplus stock was killed, and now there is a great soaroity. Beef brings on the hoof, $15 40 per 220 lbs, and dressed beef 1640 38 per 2201ds.

She is a lady of unusu- ally good delivery, thoroughly versed in scripture, and handles her subject well. The services in Rattenbury St. Me- thodist church, on Sunday, will par- take of the nature of an Organ anni- versary, it being just a year since the beautiful pipe organ was put in this church. Music specially prepared for the occasion, in the shape of sacred so- los,'d'uet's r`nPrrumental; &c., will"form" the chief part of the service, and exer- cises of more than ordinary interest are looked for, morning and evening. Dr. Marion Oliver, returned mission- ary from India, gave an interesting ad- dress in the lecture room of Willis church on Thursday evening of last week. She spoke chiefly of the schools of India, which are fast increasing in number and learning. The introduc- tion of railways, Dr. Oliver says, has done much towards breaking caste and thus removing a great barrier to the missionary cause. Strange as it may seem, dread famine has also been the means of bringing the people to Christ, as, being totally destitute, they come to the mission station, get their physical wants supplied and then, hav- ing confidence in the missionaries, ac- cept the truth. Dr. Oliver gave many interesting incidents and was listened to with rapt attention throughout her address. Personals Miss H.

October 2nd and 3rd. The Hamilton Spectator says that the Dominion franchise aot is the most onm- bersome, expensive, unsatisfaotory and al- together stupid piece of franchise legisla- tion of the century. The Spectator also says it is asunfair for one party as for the ' other. Thomas Cleary, nephew of Archbishop Cleary, of Kingston, Canada, was found on the streets of Chicago,Monday,in an uncon- scious condition and taken to the hospital, where he died. There were no marks of violence on him, and the cause of death is unknown. By the caving in of a oietern Tuesday at a young ladies' Catholic seminary at Win- ona, Minn.. three bricklayers and a boy nine years were buried eighteen feet under earth and brink. A force, of men were at once set to digging, and all the victims were dead when found.

The Baptist Young People of Canada and the United States have held a most successful convention in Toronto, in whioh several thousands of delegates have partic- ipated. The representatives are a fine type of people, as was to be expected in a Church of the standing and influence of the Baptist Church of this continent. Messrs Clapp & Co., New York, say it is estimated by capable statisticians that the United States wheat crop will thresh out 440 to 490 million . bushels. The Govern- ment report planes the figures at 400,000,- 000, allowing 30,000,000 for exports and 60,000,000 of the old crop is reserve. Clean onitivation is the salvation of the Canadian farmers. Keep out the weeds. The Northwestern States have carelessly allowed the Russian tumble -weed to get such a start as to threaten the agricultur- al industry, and Congress had just appro- priated $1,000,000 to help in exterminat - ing Robert Allan, of Chesley, was commit- ted to jail by D. Fisher and R. M. Hay, J P.'s, for horse stealing, on Tuesday. He took a mare and harness from a farmer in Brune township, and was captured by W. W. Hogg. He was arrested in the county of Grey, and was sentenced by Judge Klein, for six months in the Central Prison. At the Orange demonstration in Brant= ford one enterprising merchant had placed about half a dozen watermelons, all cut up in nine slices ready for eating, outside his store door, with a ticket on the top of the pieces "5 cents each." Someone took away the tioket and wrote on the back of it, "Please take a piece." Several visiting brethren came along and, seeing the hos- pitable invitation, of bourse partook, and now the merchant is really quite mad. Monday evening about ten o'clock Jas. A. Gouin, Ottawa, pity postmaster, while walking along Elgin street, near Cooper, was attacked by two men who struck him a heavy blow on the head, rendering him unconscious and then gaggad and robbed him. They mitered a gold watch and chain, valued at several hundred dollars. When the men committed the robbery some people were still sitting on their doorsteps a short distance away. It was the moat daring deed ever perpetrated in the capital. Tuesday morning as the Hall Circus was preparing the opening of the side show, at Butteeviile, Ind., the big gorrilla made hi escape. While kis keeper was feeding him he sprang against the cage door, and in an instant was out. The keeper was overpow- ed by the monster, whioh ran out on the grounds, and pinking up a small bey he made for the woods. A big crowd was soon in pursuit with guns, clubs and dogs, and when the beast was overtaken no one dared to shoot for fear of killing the child. Two bulldogs were set on the gorilla, one of which ho killed almost instantly. The other was so frightened that he could not be induced to go„ near_him..,_.By. this time his keeper succeeded in getting hold of his chain. . Another threw a strong rope over his head, and he was overpowered and safely lodged in hie nage. Aside from a few scratches the boy was not injured. Koko Menge, the gorilla, when the boy wan taken near the cage when he was again in, confinement, made all kinds of entice, as if to explain his fondness for the boy. i NEWS NOTES.

The marriage ivas being celebrated of two young Irish people, John Riley and Maggie Baker. The young man's family objected to the marriage, and atter the ceremony, art the couple were leaving the oburoh, one of Riley's sister's appeared on the Beene, and with shrieks caught hold of the bride and endeavored to stop her. After considerable difficulty she was taken away, and the couple hurriedly left. The scene created quite a sensation in the neighborhood. Henry Laframboise, a farmer of Sand- wich West, was the victim of an accident Tuesday that may terminate fatally. He and his son endeavored to lasso a colt that for several months bad been running wild. They succeeded in the lassoing process, and as the colt plundged forward the rope in some manner wound around the elder La framboise's leg. 1-1e was thrown violently to the ground. and, as the accident occurr- ed in the woods, he was dragged through the underbush and drawn over logs. The young man after"several futile attempts'to catch the animal, drew a knife from his pocket, cut the rope, and saved hie father from an almost certain death, but not be- fore the man was terribly bruised from the blows against trees and fallen timber. His face presents a painful appearance, being badly lacerated by Doming in contact with the underbush. Ho was unconscious for several hours, and his son took him home in a conveyance. His body is covered with a countless number of wounds, but the doc- tors entertain hopes of his recovery. Between unfavorable weather and the ravages of grasshoppers and flies the oat Drop tie not very promising, In Perth county a few fine fields are seen here and there, but on the whole the crop is light and very short in straw. In some places in Westminster township, near London, farmers are cutting their oats green for fodder to save them from the ravages of the grasshoppers. In the township of Pittsburg, near Kingston .s. peat has ap- peared in the shape of-aribat fly, and so vor- acious is its app;rtyyte that most of the late u►tp /and a: great deal of the early will be destroyed if the plague continues its rav- ages.- The fly is so small as to hardly be visible to the naked eye, but when placed under a misoroscolie it is seen to be armed with a pair of "pinchers," with which it pieroes the oat. A poison contained by the nippers of the insect works its distrac- tive course, turning the straw a reddish Dolor. One bite is sufficient to blast a stalk of grain. With the parent are associated several of a brood, each of which does its share in the work of destruction. It is 25 years since such a pest has been seen in that locality. What the Papers Say. The best that the Hamilton Spectator can say of the Senate is that it is "harm- less." A country that is so shamefully over -governed as Canada is ought not to tolerate for a day longer than necessary the existence of a chamber that costs $140,000 a year, and which can be defended by its own friends only on the ground that it is not vicious.—Toronto News. Hon. John Haggart characterized the Curran bridge job as a "gigantic frand." The Minister of Railways further said that work whioh should have been carried out for 9253,000 really cost 9396,000, thereby involvingaloes to the--country-of-3143;0W When a member of the Government makes such an admission as this it must be clear to even the most obtuse taxpayer that he has been robbed right and left.—Toronto News. le there no control whatever over public expenditure at Ottawa. If a newspaper prints az advertisement for the Government and overcharges to the extent of ten Dente, the overcharge is promptly detected and ' payment refused. How is it that the ma- chinery of the Government, which is so prompt in the detection of a 10 -cent over- charge, is unable to discover a $200,000 steal ? There is somethiLg very rotten about a system which permits that sort of thing.—Hamilton Spectator (Conservative) THE BRITISH CATTLE MARKET. John Swan & Sons (lta.), Edinburgh, in their weekly report of July 13, say:—At all the prin- cipal markets throughout the week supplies of home cattle have been 'smaller and trade was generally better. Both States and Canadian cattle have m with an easy clearrd clearance. Fat sheep and lambs have boon shorn in tower numbers. A good demand was experienced for these ab slightly higher prices. Calves—A large and good show, but no improvement in prices can be quoted. Pigs sold at fair prices.
