In vain did the good and true men-the peo- ple's friends, the patriots of the country-« essay to fix the Xine of road and to expend the large sun required for its construction through the people's representatives. But no; Mr..Gibbs and the Ministry saw they had the power and they scruppled not to use it. : On the 13th of May, 1869, Mr. MacKen- zie moved, seconded by Mr. Holton,-- " That the House go: into committee to consider the following resolutions: 1. That in the construction of the In- terculonial Railway it is of the highest im- portance for commercial and economical reasons to have the shortest smd cheapest line selected which, in addition to the main object, will afford access to the best and nearest por on the Bay of Fundy. 2.

Come, this will never do, Mr. Vindicator. Do not forget that you live and have your being expressly to sound the praises of the pre- sent member of the Commons for South Ontario ; and why not at once enter upon the task? It may be unpleasant, but it is | expected that you will dutifully wnder- | take it. You say Mr. &ibbs is the " pro- | Joundest thinker in the House,". But how do you know | Tell the electors what he | has done in the House during his seven | years probation, that they may judge of what he thinks. Oh ! you have no room for such an examination! Is this the reason you are dumb respecting Mr. Gibbs' record !

You don't care about spending | Xhe time necessary to go through the Gournals of five or seven years! But the electors of South Ontario do care.

Upon this reason. | able amendment, Messrs. Blake, Dorion, | Holton, Mills, Young, &o. voted yea; while GIBBS, Beatty, and the Ministry ' voted nay, thus destroying that wholesome system of chacks upon the expenditure of the people's money which serves as a barrier te the extravagance and corruption. On the 19th of December, 1887, it was moved uot to adopt any line for the Inter- colonial Railway without the previous assent of Parliament. Lost, yeas 35, nays 83. Mr. Mckenzie and the Reformers voted Joa; Gibbs and the Ministry voted nay, It will be remembered that the building of the Intercolonial Railway was connected with the scheme of Confederation, and | that therefore the construction of the road became a necéssity. But no one can fail to see at the same time that it was the bounden duty of the people's representa- tives, especially those from the Province | of Ontario to see that the shortest, cheapest | and best route should be chosen for the | road. To serve the above desirable ob- | jects, the people, through their répresen- . tatives, should have had a voice in fixing "4 he route. But instead of doing this, they ma id--Mr, Gibbs by his vote said to John "A. --*"Take this business into your own "hands ; the location of the route as you «ean do it will make you my friends; we L will als0 give you the money to build the to expend as you may see fit, and this affair properly manipulated en your part will keep you in power at least ten yours," (as one of the Ministers--Mr. Macdougall--said.)

That in view of thé serious effect on the finances of the Dominion and the per- t and i loss to the com- merce ~f the country consequent on the adoption of a long and extensive route to the sea, it is desirable not to proceed with any work on these portions of the line not common to the central or southern routes with a view to the adoption of a.route which will give access to the sea by the shortest ph ¢'.eapect line without inter- fering with the distance to Halifax as the ultimate terminus. The vote on the above reasonable and judicious propositions took place in the Commons on the 18th May, but was voted down by the Ministry, aided by Mr, Gibbs. Electors of South Ontario, the duty you owe to the people of this country is tv send a person to Ottawa next term whose think- ing will be in the interests of the people. All know how Mr. Gibbs a few weeks ago fought both directly amd indirectly against the nine-hour movement, how he signed the manifesto issued by the league of Capitalists formed in Toronto to resist the demands of the "clamorous and already overpaid mechanic and laborer" --the re- ply he made to one of the most extensive employers gf Oshawa who consulted him upon the prepricty of granting the hour applied fF. Said he, " my advice is, do not comply, give them the hour they ask, and you just afford them so much more tine to waste mpom their appetites and lusts." But mark the change, Mr. Gibbs thought at that time ne opposition to his election would be made. A candidate to contest the Riding wasno sooner named, and Mr. Gibbs chances in. the decendency than the hour for Saturday afternoon is granted, and so the exigencies of tho case compells so much to be sacri- ficed to the "clamorous" and " lustful" crowd. How grateful the men in the Oshawa Cabinet Factory must be for this late stretch of generosity, particularly com- ing at a time when their votes are in the balance. The next thing they may expect to hear, " Come now, men, throw your principles and consciencies under the bench and vote for me." What does Mr, Gibbs take his men for 1 Does he think they are destitute of the merest trace of observation 1 Can he ex- pect that his concession of an hour ata moment when he is politically dependént upon them will buy them up body and soul! If so, we trust to see the mechanic and laborer, whatever his source of em- ployment, or whatever his political Jean- ings, claim freedom in the exereise of his franchise.

THE meancst act on record in journalism, has been perpetrated by the editor of the Vindicator, in his zeal to defame and in- jure Truman P. White, Esq; and obtain a pat on the back from his lord and master the " profound thinker." Last week the said to tave been delivered by Mr. White, at the County Council, 'and published in the Whitby" Chronicle: the intention being to make the public believe that the editor of the Chronicle had reported the speech himseif, and that it was therefore correct. The Ch.onicle of yesterday exposes the Vindicator's chicanery in indignant terms. The fact is, that the editor of Mr. Gibbs organ prepared the report himself; and in- duced the publisher of the Chronicle to procure as a supplement to his paper the report prepared for the Vindicator--and which was printed in the latter office. Now to serve his own base ends, thie truthful ? Vindicator man credits the report, which he himself ' cooked" and printed, te ths Chronicle! Verily he is a worthy member of the Rielite party, now so diligently em- ployed in slandering Reformers. The public will hereafter know what reliance to place on the Vindicator's statements. The editor of the Chronicle, after explain- ing the manner in which he gave the re- port circulation, remarks: -- " Afterwards, we learned how inaccurate was the same report, for which we paid as a faithful transcript of the proceedings of the County Council. The editor of the Vindicator not only distorted Mr. White's words, and obtained money from us under false pretences, but the same ingenious gentleman (praying pulpiter that he is,) now seeks to fasten upon the Chronicle the paternity of his own lying report.

Mr. Gibbs' policy differs somewhat from his (Mr. Droper's), it is true, but then differences must be over- looked while the harbor is in question ; so Mr. Draper, like Paddy when he hired the horse, swears he'll cling to the harbor if he dies for jt.

Much is being done to-day, much more in time past, to exalt and to abuse by the word "loyal; "" the motives of many men, good and true, have been mis- construed, and parties, political and ecclesiastical, have been hooted and insult- ed by the base and false cry "disloyal to the crown." Does not the past history of our land teach that loyalty 1s 3 word em- ployed to dazzle, to bewilder, to Gaver | defects, to hide the wicked and gorrmpt motives of those who use 'it. Corrupt politicians, dishonest statesmen, have they and do they not use it? Who use # more than they? What is the weapon ever ready when all others fail, whereby they oppose and would overthrow their op- pongnts? Is it not this,--* You are not loyal--not true to the crown--you have not the interest of the country at heart." Corrupt politians who lead the country to bankruptcy and ruin, de they not above all others act and cry thus--We believe as Wm.

To the Editor of the Reformer, Sir,--As the Vindicator endeavors to | make political capital out of the circam- stance of Mr. 'White's adverse vote at the | County Council last year on the motion | for a grant to the Volunteers of Omtario | County, weuld it mot be well to ask the Viadicator to explain on what grounds | this, or any other county should be asked | to grant a sum, in addition to what is | paid by the Dominion Govornment? [It appears to me that if thé Volunteers are | not paid enough, the Government should increase their pay. As, if it is left to the County Councils, it looks very much like a tax on the loyalty of the counties which send the most Volunteers. Perhans the Vindicator will be kind enough to enlighten us on the subject, If the Vindicator would tell us, also, if Mr. White deals liberally or otherwise | with his employes, the working men would { be better able to judge as to the merits of the candidates, and would doubtless vote accordingly.

To the Editor of the Ontario Reformer: Dear Sir,--1 see that Mr. Gibbs' :heet, e Oshawa Vindicator, is endeavoring to { out of Mr. T. P. | White's speeches and votes in the County | Council of Ontario for 1871 and 1872, on ! a motion for supplementing the pay of the | Volunteers, while attending dri} at Ni- | agara, ont of the Council resources. I | think the Gibbses' ought to bé the last | persons in the country to criticise 'the { actions of any individual in any matter I relating to the. comforts of the Volunteers, | they ought to fer] humiliated and ashamed | at the mere mention of any assistance for the comforts) of the brave men, who are | always ready to go forth to maintain and | proteet the honor of their country when- ever threatened, or by whosoever invaded. Atlthe last elcetion of the Dpminion Par- lin.ent did not the Gibbses' unblushingly utter falsehoodsvand practice deception in endeavoring to shew their generosity to the Volunteers, by stating what was false, that thoy had forwarded £500 for their use to aid in their comforts, when they had done nothing of the sort. Men that will delibrately utter such falsehoous when no necessity required it, only to deceive the people for the purpose of catching their votes, will not seruple to any mean act in order to carry out their purpose. Electors of Ontariw, I advise you to give 'such men » wide berth. I think, Mr. Editor, that Mr. White was quite consistent by his votes and speeches on Both occasions, contending as he did, that it was the duty of the Government to give sufficient remuneration fo the Volun- teers for their voluntary services, which was the ground he tevk both in 1871 and 1877; sceing the Government had made no provisions for further pay, and' seeing thas T. N. Gibbs, in his place in Parlia- ment, failed in d@ Rg his duty on behalf of the Volunteers; in not bringing before the notice of Parliament the injustice done the Volunteers in this respect'; Mr. White seeing this; and rather thrn the Volunteers should longer suffer injustice; he was willing and anxious to supplement their ™ by a vote from the County Council, but still contending it wss the duty of the Government to increase the pay of the Volunteers. You all know. gentlemen, that it is a gross injustice to the Volunteers to havo to depend on the grants from County Council for remuner- aticn for their services, while some Coun- cils are patriotic enough to give this grant, and others are too selfish to do so, although reaping the same benefitJand protection from the Volunteers that others do who are generous enongh and feels it their duty to give grants; but, Mr. Editor, it shews the desperateness of their cass when they have to resort to such practices im order to catch votes. What do the Gibbses' care for the Volunteers or their comforts further then they can use them for their ewn purposes ; their un- blushing falsehoods at last election shew this, and if they were at all susceptible to shame, they would avoid any discussion in regard to the Volunteers; but we .will leave them in the hands of the Electors of Ontario: a majority of them are too wuligisted and too honest to be hood- win any such articles as appeared in the Vindicator.

One of the most aDpali railway disas- ters that has ever taken Ao in Canada, occurred on Friday night last, on the Grand Trunk Railway, about a mile east of Shagnonville station, and about nine miles east of Bolleville. The night ex- press for Montreal, which left Toronto shortly after 7 o'clock, was somewhat be- hind time in leaving Belleville; but the engineer--said to be ome of the best on the road --thought he could make up the lost time before reaching Kingston, as the track was considered in good order. At the point above indicated, however, while going at a pretty high rate of speed, the engine jumped from the track, owing, it is stated, to the flange of one of the for- ward! truck wheels breaking. The en- ginedr sounded the whistle for the stop- page pf the train, but this could not be effectpd in time. The engine ran down an embankment aboufj eight feet high, and upset, with the smokustack towards the track. The ten- der was forced past the engine, and swung around in a reversed position, a heap of battered and shattered: metal. The bag- gage and express car passed the engine, and was thrown diagonally across the track, without injuring the occupants.-- The socond-class car which came next, 'and contained about seventy passengers, was far enough off the track to anchor upon the overthrown engine, and in its gine, and remained transfixed, with its living freight, on top of the engine. The smoking and post office car which follow- ed was *' telescoped" | on the second-class car, and smashed to pieces--the occupants receiving some bruises, but nothing seri- ous. The two first-class cars 'were thrown from the track, but none of the occupants were injured; and the Pullman car re- mained on the rails, with no injury to oc- cupants. The second-class car, which was above | the engine, was the scens of a calamity of | the most horrifying description. The | breaking of the safetyvalve allowed the | escape of an immense volume of steam and boiling water, which immediately filled the car, and enveloped the seventy unfor- [tunate inmates as if in a cauldron of boil- ing water. The steam, of course, had to be inhaled, and caused anguish indescrib- able. 1 occupaits of first-class cars on going fdrward were horrified by the screams of the imprisoned victims, and the appaling sight which met their gaze is thus described by one of the passengers who was in the rear car: i ' After a moment or two, I'managed to get to the front of the train, and from there into the uppermost side of the %ec- ond-cluss car. 1 tried to open the win dows; bat, finding I could not do so, ran around to the platform side of the smok- ing-car, and got a crow-bar out of a num- ber which belonged to our men. I saw that the two cars were *' telescoped." 1 then commenced to break the windows of the second-class car, and several of the men got out through them. I smashed in the door, and as the steam had pretty well dispersed, } went in and found some of the men sitting in their seats, apparently stunned and unconscious. Conductor Neilson, the Pullman car conductor, and two Volunteers from Port Hope--one of them was named Skitct.--then came in, we went $o the middle of the car, and saw that the side was. completely smashed, and there were many of the passengers byried among the rains. We rumediately com- nsenced lifting them out, and, as I was thus engaged, I found tuo little children lying at the bottom of the car quite dead. The clothes of all those I touched were so hpt that I could hardly bear to handle them.

Fellows. Dear Sir: I came to this country in May 1869. I found a countryman of mine labor- ing under some affection of the Jungs. I recommended your Syrup, tried at the Druggists in Harbor Grace, but they thought I was inventing the name at their expense. However, in April. 1870, Mr. Edgar Joyce rapidly wasted away with every symptom of quick consumption, so that he was unable to walk across the room, haviag no appetite, pains in the left side, nervous system unstrung, dry, hacking cough, &e. Fortunately I learned that your Syrup could be obtained at Mr. Dearin's in St. John's, and ipnedindy procured some (showed one to W. Thompson, who ordered a supply from you at once). This was Tuesday afternoon; at night he took tha prescribed dose and in the morning he described the very results notified on the wrapper. His appegite soon began to re'urn, and a voracious one it was, too; the dry, hacking cough changed into loose but violsnt attacks, finally disappearing altogether; pains left | his side, Lis hand-assuméd its usual steadi- | ness, and before he finished ten bottles his health was quite restored, and to- day not a more healthy person is to be fcund on our streets; and it is the opin- ion of all, had he not been fortunate in getting your valuable Syrup of Hype- phosphites, he would now be in his grave. He happened to be in W.H. Thompson's the day your first shipment arrived, and took at once four bottles to the Labrador, which he was very anxious to do, but had no occasion to use them himself. No other medicine will he ever prescribe, recom - mend or give, but yours. I also recommended it to another con- sumptive, but have not heard from him since, as he lives 'in a distant part of the Island. Hoping this will give you some | encouragement, I remain yours, &e., D. H. BURRAGE. | Carxivar TicRers.--As many people applied to George H. Ellis, manager of the great carnival, for tickets to attend the concert only, and having no numbers for the gifts, Mr. Ellis has now issued a limit- ed number of such tickets to accommodate all. The tickets are éne dollar each, and can be had at the general ticket office at 64 Buffalo Strect, Fower's Commercial Building. ! ro THE ELECTORS SOUTH RIDING / OF THE / COUNTY OF ONTARIO. your representation, 1 of my Numble sbilites eaieari® serve the one by a faithful : the other. 7 discharge I am; Gentlemen, ~ Your most oby humble A Chemical Food and Nutritive FEE GREAT POPULARITY WHEELER'S CO PHOSPHATES AND CA its perfect reliability in run down with wn and Kidneys hich arise frem J | Feeble Digestion, result breaking down in is i ually refleves pain Conmigation from. vas b m to Ion ro of the. from the red de t in tl and resticssness followed by and general debility which inevis at the one coramon caure--Dy 4 Digestion. all those delicate lack energy and vitality, and the ves toany fatigue, will be astonished at the id which 'the whole em 8 Taised strate cond use ess, delicious, does not lo ¢ Is not followed by a relapse.

They tore their clothes off, and many of them jumped the fence and fled across the fields, crying ont the whole time most pitifully, One man got away at least a quarter of a mile befbge 1 copld catch him, and another 'was half a mile off when he was found." Belleville was at once communicated with by telegraph, and a special train was speedily dispatched to the scene of the disaster--all the medical aid available being brought into requisition. The freight shed at Belleville was transformed into an hospital, and the sufferers having been placed nporr mattresses were conveyed thither, and received every possible atten- tiou fromr the people of Belleville--several ladies being conspicuous for their untiring exertions to relieve the sufferers. The scalding had been so severe that many of the victims were unrecognizable, and the screams and groans of the suffcrers, with the flesh almost ready to drop from their , was enough to make the stoutest shndder. One after another sank awny, and at this time over thirty have expired --all, with the exception of the engine driver and one other person, hav. ing died from the effects of the steam.-- Overtwenty still remsin in the temporary nospital, and it is expected that several of these will not long survive. Nearly all the sufferers by this accident' were French Canadian] umbermen and telegraph line constructors. We believe there was no ome from this vicinity on board the train. An inquest was held on the bodies of 29 of the victims, and a verdict rendered in keeping with above statement. An inquest on the bodies of those who have since died is now being held, attend- ed by the Crown Attorney, by divection of the Attorney General. It will be ascer- tained if the railway authorities are to blame for the accident. The Great Musical Ca: nival--The Time A ---Great : Activity--Im- mense Demand for Tickets. (Brom the Rochester Union, June 22.) As the time is rapidly approaching for the Great Musical Carniv to open, the greatest interest is being manifested' and activity everywhere prevails.; The public, far near, seem to be fully aroused to the extent and Samrmaty of. the affair, which will be indeed the grandest musizal event that ever transpired in this State. Advices from abroad give positive assurance that many pvr Gd ed will visit Rochester daring 'the Carnival week to listen to the splendid music by Dodwarth's renowned band and other ical artists the term of the next Parliament.

The holding of all the elections-in the Domine ion on one and the same day, under the Mshority of a stringent law, for the pun- ishment ribery and corrupt practices, and the trial of contested aR by the Judges, would, in my opinion, condfice to that result. 5 : While it is requisite that the ex- ecutive should have certain discretionary powers, I hold the opinion that those pene should be cinfined to the smalldst imit, consistent with tlie proper adminis- tration ef the Government of the country, Hence I stand firmly "opposed. to placing the expenditure of large sums of public moneys at the disposal of the Ministry, without the sanction of Parliament being first obtained to all particulars and details eonnected the-ewith.

Our policy should be such, in my opinion, that while enéour- aging the development of our natural re- sources, to, at the same time, utilize our necessities by levying a duty for a portion of the revenua required, upon such import ed articles as can be most advantageously produced amd . manufactured in our own country. As all opr natural advantages are who are engaged to appear at this series of concerts. The array of mwsical talent has never been equaled at any price. The low cost of tickets of admission makes the thing attractive. So much music for a single dollar could only be given to large multitudes st once where the concerts are held under canvas. It is the magnitude of the affair that enables Mr Ellis to put the tickets so dow. While the distribation of costly and® elegant gifts may attract some, it is the musie that will draw many more who know how excellent it will be. The canvas under which the vast andience will assemble has been shipped for Rochester and the work of putting it up will commence on Tuesday next, A larger and finer audience room cannot be found this side of the Coliseum, As the time for the opening of the Car- less without brains augd hands to diroct and apply them, we should make use of evéry proper means to induce immigration to our country. : : The defence of a country like durs, having thousands of miles of inland bound- aries, must rest mainly with the brave hearts and 'stout arms; of her peaple; it therefore should be ouraim to cultivate a martial spirit in the people, and train our Joung men to be expert in the use of war- ke weapons, and to this end the Govern- ment should offer them sufficient induce- ments for devoting the time necessary for that purpose; and not as hitherto, by de- pending npon the municipal councils - to make the deficicncy. .
