There are several noled exceptions tothe above where a clique lias tried to obtain an undue advantage over the constituency by decking up a nobody, a political weather-cock, who is prepared to swing areund the circle and lend his support to whoever will pay him best, from the red capped anexationist to the most solid Tory. Such candidates of course never would be brought owt were 11 not for the siguificant phrase.-- For value received. Such trickery however never fails to briag disgrace on all concerned --while it sadly injures the cause with which it 'is con- necled, creating, as it always does, division and discord in the ranks, such us never fail ! "to tell'their own story. The elections will doubtless be as; within three months and though there is perhaps no necessity for « making a great rush just yet--sull it is - absolutely necessary, that in every riding a ealin and careful selection should Le made for both houses of men of ability as well as integrity. No previous election that has ever taken place in Canada possessed hall the importance of that about to take place, whether we regurd the vast importance of the dulies connected with the ar- rangement of the new order of things--the great and expensive public works about to be commenced, or the large amount of pat- ronage to be ltestowed. Hence the ne- cessily for selecting men of ability to direct the movements, and of honor and integnty above truckling jobbery in the public works, 1 pr chshoneety in the distribution of the patronage. The New Commons House wil! have the approving or rejecting of the New Confederate Government--the consolidation of the new system bf -things-and its- defence against such opposition as may be biought against it; and some of the ablest 'men in the Dominion, will be found ameng its enemies.

Would it not be hazzardous to send political knaves, or selfish incompetents to occupy so nnpar- tant and responsible positions. No honest intelligent eandidate would allow himself to be smuggled io under the mantle of a clique. Does anyone imagine that the Re- formers of North Oniario will allow them- selves to be nosed into supporting the nom- inee of any clique--the arrogance of such nominees is only equalled by their 1ncom- petence. They know no more and expect nothing further than to attend to the neces- sary gnading for themselves and clique ; the rest of the riding and country at large may goto the dogs for them, their little selfish cunning -- their only stock in trade, must all be directed to the special profit of dear elf or forwarding some stupid scheme for a Railway whose one end shall be on their own door-yard and the other in the moon or some place else equally ridiculous, it matters not where so long us the people are obliged 10'pay for it.

This was well ex- emplified in the case of the brave M. de Girardin.
