Court affirmed the decision of Mr. Esq, late M. P. for South Victoria, RRY, JULY 1, 1875. Important to Municipal Councils. 1 At tie commencement of the present year the N. Simcoe Railway nd of Toronto requesting said neil {th submit a bylaw to the ayers of the city for the grant. railway. The road was not intend- | ed to pase through any part of oe city but it was argued by many the citizens and by someof the mem.- bers of Council that the extension of the road would be of advantage to the city. But when the matter came up before the Council and a 'move made for the introduction of said by-law a majority of the mem- bers opposed the introduction of the 'by-law on the ground that the rate- payers of the city of Toronto had no interest in the building of the pro- posed road and therefore the Council was not bound to submit any such by- law, that they might either sub- mit itor not as they pleased. A di- 'vision was demanded and 14 voted against the submitting a by-law and 7 voted for it. Hence the by-law was not introduced. * The Railway Company feeling.cut that their petition was refused and tbat the Council would not submit a by-law to the people obtained the legal opinion of Hon. J. H. Cameron; he advised fe Company to apply for a nandamus to compel the Coun- cil to submit a by-law to the people 'and Mr Jutsice.Gwynne was applied to for amandamus ; but after hearing 'the arguments on both sides he re- fused the application and would not granta mandamus. Not satisfied 'with this, however,the Railway Coy appealed from the decision of Justice Gwynne and brought the matter be- fore the Court of Queen's Bench and ihe mmanimous judgment of the Justice Gwynne in refusing the ap- plication for a mandamus. Here fol- low the unanimous decision of the whole Court: -- " The Courtof Queen's Bench being unan. imously of the opinion that the City Council had a right, before submitting such a by-law to determine whether Toronto was in the words of the Act, interested in secming the construction of the railway, and that this question had been decided in the negative by u two-thirds vote of the Council, the Court will not anterfere with that decision" Hence it willbe seen that Muni- cipal Councils have something to say as to whether by-laws should be submitted or not, S-- Hdgar Again on his Wit. Edger the Grit Diplomat took it into his vain imagination that he could by the grace of that kind of Grit persuasion (whisky and big promises) so long and universally practiced by those "elevators," get elected to the Commons for Monck; but having again come out at the small end of the horn the Grit Government will again have a job in dry nursing him by sending him off to Manitoba, British Columbia or some such locality where he may draw a bandsome pay and have no- thing to do. _ Another Lefts the Field.

Mr Wm. Imeas now mustered the second match--this was open to all, but the grown up part of the aud- ionce declined with thanks, they did not want to do any spelling just then. They had not quite enough of the spellozootic to eause them todo any- thing so rash as risk their reputa- tion with the juveniles, so the second contest was confined to eleven chil- dren of School-age.. The contest in this was also well conducted. Mr. Wm. Hylands of No. 4 Section car-- ried off the honors and the first prize while Miss F. Allen, No. 7, took sec- ond honors and 2nd prize. Much cheering followed this match, Mat- ters got 80 hot towards the close of the match that there was imminent danger of a spelling duel taking place there and then between two sections, in fact matters had cometo a crisis and when the spelling duel had got quieted down a pitched arithmetical battle between the same two sections appeared to be decided upon ; the generals were about to draw articles for the. fight but by some means or other it, too, fell through. We wonder why the gen- erals themselves did not have a spat. Very likely an intellectual fight of some kind will come up between the two sections unlesss it may be avert- one of the two generals as it is not improbable that they may meet in deadly scholastic combat at any mo- ment when one or both must fall. Change of Boundaries. Binge the Union of the Canada Presbyterian Church with the old Kirk the boundaries of the several Presbyteries have heen materially changed, the Whitby Presbytery in its sopthern boundary passes along the Lake shore with [Pickering for its western poipt and Clark for its (eastern point. 'It eastern limit pas- ses from Clark to Wilhamsburg and its northern boundary passes from Williamshurg through Port Perry o Utica; ithe western boundary 'passes from Utica to Pickering.-- The Lindsay Presbytery commences at the northern boundary ot the Whitby Presbytery, extending to the north without limitation. Rev. A. Currie, M. 4A ,. of-Bonya, is appointed first Moderator. We congratulate the Presbytery on the wisdom of the choice, he will discharge the import antdnties of the position with credit to himself, satisfaction to the, Presby- tery, and to the best interest -of the Church and furtherance efrthe.glor- ious cause whose propagation is the grand mission of the Church. _ A Runaway. "Mr Jobn Brace of the 1st con. of Cartwright while on his way to ¢hareh on Sabbath last had a pretty bad runaway but we are glad to know that the results were not so serious as it was feared they would be. Mr Bruce was driving a fine team of spirited horses and his wife and ghild -were in the buggy with him.

The Crops. Professional whiners have had their time of it. Owing to the cold and sumewhat backward spring months the whiners got fat on their predictions of an approaching #2arcity, and even the book of holy writ was scanned by them with a view to finding ex- pressions sufficiently lugubrieus to express the anguigh of their souls--such expressions a8 cleanness of teeth, the earth becoming iron and the heavens brass and giving us a stanza or two of poetiy. to increase the agony. "What though no flower the fig tree clothe, The vines their fruit deny, The labor of the olive And fields no crop supply." We are pleased to see, however, that their most exquisite growling appears to have all been premature and groundless, for ene but seldom sees at this season of the year a bet. ter prospect of an abundant harvest whether of hay, grain, roots or fruits. Any one pass- ing over this or any of the neighboring townships will find that everywhere the most cheering prospects present themselves. The hay season will soon be on and the crop will be abundant, and the quality first rate, while the grain crops promise equally well and will be sure to take the wind out of the most skillful growlers, And let us re- Jjoice and be thankful that our prospects are 80 cheering. ------------ Keep to the Right. Ina thickly peopled locality whether village, town or city, where there is much traffic on the streets it is of the utmost im- portance whether for comfort of facility in getting along that a proper system of passing be adopted and adhered to. What can pos- sibly be more awkward and annoying. when hurrying along the walk than to meet some one who persistently attempts to pass on the wrong side or it may be attempts to pass en both sides of you. After dodging for a min ute yon make up your mind to pass on the wrong side to get rid of your , but, .ten to one, the moment you attempt to pass out towauds your own left hand he will be- think himself and attempt also to give way by springing out towards his right and there you dash into each other. Such collisions are of frequent occurrence in any stirring village where the proper rule of pass is not adhered to, One awkward rule-violator passing along the stréat will create confusion along his whole course. Old gnd young, big and little, male and female, ought it passing along. when they meet anyone, let it be man, woman or child, to pass off to | their right, that is, to the left of the party they meet, Some may say it is all right as far as rales are concerned, but ladics are always privileg- ed to take the side farthest from the strect. [This very whim is the cause of more than half of the confusion created in passing along the streefs. What advantage can it possibly be to ladies to allow them, on certain ocga- sions, to. violate, the, law of pass? it is alike annoying-to themselves and to the parties avhom they are passing. When a gent and lady meet, this useless whim, which should never be tolerated, might be put in practice but how is it when two ladies meet, the in- side whim, will have here to be laid aside and the ladies each one take the right in passing, unless it be that the lesser swell is to allow the greater to choose the, side, It we would have comfort and order in passing along let us invariably, keep, opr right in passing every ne, lady or gemt. It is amusing to pass along and notice parties worming their way through the streets, at one time dodging to the right, then to the and i into the stark they meet, or taking them. straight in the No. 11s into. the skirts of some lady's dress whom Mr. Noodle was striving to pass on the wrong side.. Let all, male and female, young and old, keepto the right hand inpassng Anyone, that is, pass to the left of those they meet apd traffic will get along in gone un. broken currept, those going in one direction never interfering with or falling foul of those going in the opposite direction. -- 4pniversary of the Battle To of the 3 BOYD.

'Deice, The Anniversary oe vives ot the Utica Methodist Sunday School were held ef their Church on Sabbath and Monday 18st. On Sabbath there were services in the ft and evening.. The weather on Monday ap- peared somewhat doubtful on the early part of the day, but it soon brightened up and became one of the finest days that could be desired. About one o'clock dinner in the basement of the church was announced, but yet arrived so that the children were the chief patrons of the dinner table not many of the grown up people being present ; but a more cheerful and really social company one but seldom meets with. After dinner the company assembled in the body of the church. Rev. 8, C. Philp, superintendent of the circuit, took the chair: On the platform wero Rev. Mr. Campbell, Rev. Mr. Galloway, Wm. Spence, Esq, superintendent of the school, George Currie, Esq, Robt. Bcott, Esq., superintendent of the Methodist Sunday School, Epsom, and Mr, Howsam, The church had rapidly filled up and seats were placed in the passes and soon filled also, After thé opening services, the superintendent of the school read the annual report, which showed a most encour aging condition of things, highly creditable to the officers of the school and all concern od, The names on the roll during the year were 166, and the average attendance has been about 100. There are 12 officers and 12 teachers, and the cash in the hands of the treasurer, $9.69, There was a capital supply of good spenk- ing, first from the Chairman in his opening address, He dwelt on the success which has attended the school whose anniversary wag then being celel d, and 1 4 the officers, the teachers and the whole school fn their midst. Mr. Currie was the first speaker, he gave day Schools and the several duties connected therewith, the great objects of the institution and what ought to be the chief aim of all teachers, the blessings it kad conferred on ind ing. Rev, Mr. Campbell was the next to address us. able length tracing the progress of education in Canada, from the time that we had no Fenools, ana ese kept in any old ho which was not wanted or was not fit fof be- ing a residence, pnd the teachers, male and female, were only those who could do noth- ing clse for a living and would have been oii the town if not so employed. The speaker dwelt with much emphasis on the value and importance of the education given in our Sunday Schools, and the superiority of re- ligions over secular knowledge, The Addresses .were interspersed .with a generous supply of music from the juvenile Choir, consisting of 2 lot of handsome girls, led by Mr, Howsam. Miss Howsam presid- ed.at the organ and handled it well. There were several good dialogues given 'by the children, Me. Allen being «prompter {for the children. (The entire services np till the time for tea, were well diversified, interesting and in- structive and heartily enjoyed, by g large and intelligent gudicnce gathered from all parts of the township. The announcement that Ten wes ready ught, the ox to a close and the basement of the church was now the centro of attraction and presently the three long tables in that gomfortable, , pigy hall were surrounded by a pleasant and agreeable company while the tables were generously supplied with every requisite for a first class tea, got up in ¢ a style higily creditable fo the skill and activity of the fair ones who had that depariment under their care, The number and pctivity of the . waiters were in keeping with the other arrange- ments and added much to the comfort of the guesfs, © We haye scan. what otheravise would have been a comfortable tea entirely spoild either from the smaliness of the number of waiters or from their. miserable anpnggment nearly all.of them being crowded round a table, where a nabob chanced to be sitting, while other tables which shawed rio' white were neglected ; partioa being allowed rent sit thero,unpitended til after the wonid- be grandeos had almost got. thrpugh.

Sunday School Anniversary. The Sunday School in coneection with the M, E. Church, Port Petry held theirjan- niversary services on' Sabbath and Monday last, On Sabbath the services consisted of a series"of add: on with Sabbath Schools, There was a pretty numerous staft of speakers, but bearing no resemblance to those Reach orators whom our Whitby friends designated as mere num- erous than useful ; the addresses were all im. portant, bearing as they did upon the great importance of Eunday Schools, and tending to interest the young in and Sacreias their respect for the instructions of the 'Sunday School, and incline their minds more and more to profit by the lessons received there. Mr D. Taylor, the worthy Superintendent of the Bchool, took the chair and brought the meeting "to order when proceedings were opened by singing and prayer. Amongst| those who delivered addresses were Rev. Geo, Jones, Messrs A Gordon, M. P., Geo Currie, Wm Jones and John Shaw, The order maintained and the attenton paid by all young and old were highly cred- itable and can scarcely fail of being produc- tive of large benefit to the school collectively and to the children individually. The music supplied on the occasion was both plentiful and choice and a most agree- able and profitable afternoon was spent by all, On Monday afternoon the children held a sort of social pic-nic, in Crandell's Grove, and they, having things pretty much their own way, had a regular children's time of it, their merry laugh and gleeful voices made the woods resound, Such fs regarded by the children as the very perfection of an- niversary times and will do them mote good than if they had been kept pinned to their seats and fed with vinegarand gall for a couple of hours. We have seen children so treated on what was called their anniversary day, We have frequently thought that such vinegar anniversaries should be enlarged into centenneries as a hundred years is quite soon enough for the return of such anniver- saries. However the nature of such anniver. ing bétter und d, the comfort of the young folks is now the chief aim, The eoneert in the cvoning was capital the school children doing all the work: as well in recitations, dialogues and musfec and they did their work well. The church was well filled and the performaces were swell recejved. That our Sunday School Offers and Teachershave a greater claim on the gratitude countenance and support of tiie public than any other class of the community has, must be obvious to every one who considers fora moment the great benefits the Sunday School institntion is conferring on the world, and that those noble men and women engaged in the work give their services gratuitously. | Another Fearful Calamity. The city of Bude was last Sunday the scendof one of the most severe storms which has visited the continent of Europe in may years: The lightning was incessant ; and hail fell in such quantitics that the roofs of houses and surrounding hills were covered two feet thick with ice, The water fall was extraor- dinary, Torrents swept through the strects ot Buda, carrying mien, vehicles, and every- thing moveable down into the river. Many houses werd suddenly flooded and destroyed before their iumates could cscape. Five hundred of the inhabiiants are missing, and at least a hundred have been drowned or killed by falling walls. All the railways are interrupted. eee 4 rere Another Fire in Lindsay.

At the. 800 yards range the Americans made 337 and the Irish 338. Apt the 900 yards the Americans made 327 while the Irish made only 292.-- At the 1000 yards the Americans made 303 and the Jrish made 299. Thus the Ameri- cans gained by a total of 38 points. The Irish were much dissatisfied at the result--notat the Americans who won fairly but at their own team who, they consilered, had not done their duty. 1t was with some difficulty that a row wag suppressed.
