The outcome of the Moody effort in the City of Toronto a few weeks ago looks as if detectives were more want- ed in thatcity than evangelists. During Mr, Moody's three weeks performance in that city a few may have caught on, but the obdurate heart of the city asa whole remained unsoftened and the gushing appeals which fell from the ips, of the eloquent exhorter had no fore impression on the heart of an average Torontonian than water has on a duck's back. And now thut the excitement is over citizens appear to take more pleasure in critising the cost of the display than in summing up any good results that may have follow ed. It is said that the total cost of thie display, including hall rent and|' music, amounted to $4,000, but only those who took part were called on to contribute and consequently no others have anything to do in the matter. Mr. Moody, like 'an honorable gen tleman, preferred stopping at a hotel throwing himself on the generosity private individuals.

Passed Away. On Wednesday of last week this community was called to mourn the valuable death of an estimable and townsman, Austin 3. Platten, Deceased was one of nature's noble- | men, an honest and industrious son of toil, he was greatly respected by all his acquaintances and was worthy of | it. and kind, as a father judicious and As a husband he was devoted | watchful and as & townsman obliging and agreeable. The funeral took place on the 7th inst, and the very large and respectable turnout was a worthy tribute to the memory of de ceased, Old England display made by the brethren of the the two orders reflected much credit on both orders and manifested a broth- erly feeling worthy of the two noble orders. The Rev. Geo. Browne of Claremont preached two good Sermons last Sun- day in the Port Perry Methodist Church. The occasion was the Mis- siopary Anniversary. The branch gave lust year to this fund $225 and an effort will be made to reach the same amount this year. The sum raised by the Society in the Dominion last year was $234,000 but the neces- sities of the work have compelled the General Board to go beyond even this large income, ES. A programme of special interest is in course of preparation by the Choir and Pastor of the Port Perry Metho- dist Church for Sunday evening, Dec. 23rd: The programme will be pub- lished in full next week.

On motion of W. ¥, Cowan, Esq, seconded by Arthur Jobuston, Esq, the meeting was resolved into a mass meeting. NOMINATIONS. The nominatious were next proceed: ed with resulting in the following j Mayor W. F. Cowan, W. Coulthard, reeve, and W. H. Thomas, Oshawn ; William 8mith, MP, Columbus ; Dr, Guoun, ex<Mayor, J. H. Long, Mayor Rutledge, Dr. Warren, J. L. Smith, J. B. Dow, John Smith and Drf Me- Gilliveay, Whitby ; Mr. Peter Christie, ex-warden Outario county, and Reeve James Maunre, Reach ; Mr. A. Johni- ton, Greenwood, and Robert Miller, Broughan. Each nominee was called upon to address the meeting. Dr. Gunx the oldest and one of the members the the first to address most influential of Association was the meeting, he said in the govern- ment of a country, measures were of far more importance than men, and the people wers beginning to recog- nige that fact and it was encouraging that such was the case; the country bad arrived at an important crises in its history, during the past 54 years he kuew of no period when the affairs of this country were in so critical a state as at the present time, and he con sidered it was the duty of the Conven tion to give no uncertain expression regarding the wisdom displayed by the present Government in the manage- ment of its affairs, and also to ex- press its entire confidence in our es 3 al ay to forward the bes! in- terests of the country. He was agree- ably surprised at the cantious, thought ful and wise statesmanship displayed by Sir John Thompson in promoting and protecting the welfare of the Dominion, and it was of the utmost importance that we should not lose the benefits thus acquired as far dur ing his brilliant and successful leader ship, and the Convention is selecting a candidate should be careful to make a good choice, if it did so there would be no question as to the result should our opponents put a candidate in the field which he very much doubted.-- The disposition- of the people of this country is to look to England and it is well that they should do so, she can always be relied on to treat them fair- ly. The treaty she made with Ger many in 1713 debars her of discrim- inating in tariff matters even in favor of her colonies were she so desirous, still the time may come, throngh wars or other eventualities when she will be m a position to favor her colonies in trade relations, All well-wishers of their country should take part in the coming contest and exert themselves in order that the present efficient Government may be retained in power. Before taking his seat the Dr. moved the following resolution which was carried unanimously : «Thad in consideration of the fact that our country is passing through a a most important crisis in its history, we, the Liberal Conservatives of South Ontario, feel it to be our duty to give a unaniwious exp. ession of our zonfi- ment in their increasing cfforts to pro- mote the welfare of the Dominion, and in order to assist infurthering (heir airs in this direction, we hereby express our entire confidence in our estecmed member, Mr. Wm. Smith, and resolve to use our best_sndeavors to return Lin to represent us in Parliament, having every confidence in his honesty and ability to assist in advancing the best interests of the country.'--Oarried.
