I'aUersou, belter HU t Wu dull' our Imi to tlie Mirror lu A LAST WOIU) TO THE MIUROR. The Moaford Minor last Tfeek d- tided tliat it was bettor nr.t to "deal further" with tlie Advance re the ap- peal matter. It ii well, because ths Mirror was making a complete exhi- bition of itself and continually con- tradicting and eating its own words. This paper waa the party attacked and it now claims tho privilege of making it short rrsnmo of this little war of word* which has taken place. Iu the very readable article upon " ho language of tlie world " the Montreal \Viim-, favors English HH the coming general language, und in Bup|ort of its position says : " No other lang- uage lias the facility thai Knghsh bus of possessing itself of thu wealth of other languages Without scruplu it adoptx any word it Ckeds wherover it can find it, and often those that it does not need. Among ourselves <vc see the French language giving way to the English in spite of some upus mi i. lie efforts to resent, if not to resist it. In puruly French parts of this country Knglish expressions form a very cousidcrable.and ever increasing, part of the means of mutual inter- course of the pea*anti y. One instance out of ten thousand in a purely French village what does the reader think of this sign bo<ird : " N. Chose, brickh'iir el plasteur." The very low condition of education characteristic of Roman Calholic couim unities, of course, groatly promotes this visible decay of language, while the vital vigor of English Protestantism contributes greatly to the vitality and spread of it thai exude. i fitrliliiy, for all pltnt food is carried to th roots by water, an opi-raiioii which cannot be per formed when the moisture is in a Hlaifimni "tiii The us ol Hits miller drainage in by no meaiix so much lo dry the soil as In opc-n all ils pores and allow tin- water free pass- age upwanls and downwards. There are alxi other imporlaut IHIM in UieSi! enterprising fintsts. They atTonl xlielter lo iii" whole farm from the fierce wimlft of winler, and are also of .i vi-ry great advantage 10 the callle in 'In sumnier time. I remember a farm on which ihcre weru half a il i.-i n excellent springs of water sheltered by forest. A new purchaser cleared oil' the woods which the old insl short article which rained such sin nproar we merely stated thai Moa- lord wan " ill advised." Tim the Mirror resented in vigorous, but 1111 convincing language, evidently under lauding tho word "ill-advised" to mean '-improper." We never inferred that Me.nford went beyond its rights in making the appeal.but that it was mi fortunate for the town that it had I'niie so, which posili iii w still adhere to and would were we publishing a )>MIKI in the town of Mi afoul itself. Our reasons were given, and given in a ti i'liiiily spirit. Ono of these reason) was that the county had dono much for tli town and givsu it a high h,, .I. To iln-i tin Mirror shouted, ..on i we pay fur it I thereby showing that the ignorance u charged others v uli possessing wa held in a large ilogree liy itself. The Mirror is a ianU-r of the first-water and occasion- iilly =': iiiu t >o loud. We Btated that iliC report of llie Finance Committee was not in iiiimotid, and got our in jitriLu'i >ii from one of the committee, 'j'hc M.I ...i claimed that it was iinani morn 1 1 cue it was Bignd by the rliairman ! We stated that the report \\i\g adopted in often council, vrlnrh the Mirror denied and even went so fur as to charge us with wil ful falsehood hern use wo staled what \vr behoved to be the truth. Aud if it wcro in. l tl.o truth w'.iy did th* Mirror last w. i.l. nay : " 'If the report was not adopted,' add? our contemporary. there would have been no appeal. 4irante<l." In its issue of Aug. 1C it Haid "Had thu n port of the com- mittee boon adopted by tht Cjtmty Council there would have been no ap peal ami the matter wouli 1 have ended there and then."

I'HIPPS. Itichuiond M.. Toronto, Uut. T tkt KMur uf TV DBAH SIR. It poems slrango that Mr. I!, iiiuan is suddunly seized with remorse of conscience for taking up space in your valuable paper consid- ering thai ho made the first charge against me. In his last letter he charges mo with guessing at the short- age of toll as no stock w.n taken. In thu he is wrong, an the wheat in the null was weighed before. Mr. 1'earsol ground a liium I, the result showing a iiet profit lo the mill (in Alexanders limt'i of 875 Ibs. of tbnir. Ho next tries to make it appear that he make* no money nut of the order business. If such it* the case why should he so strongly opposo the nifasiiie brought up in a diieelor's mceiing to girt- the booaB into, thu miller's bauds ? No, Mr II. .! n. .in. it is money you aro aflur, and thu teaming of the rolls to tho station proves it. His noil charge is that 1 am chief in violating the by- law relating to the order business, through malice. Such is not the caso, and it is well for tho profit* of the null iluit it is not compulsory to secure an Hi. li i from him, as many who now |ialioni/u the mill would rather go wilhout as enter his store. This is why Mr. IVarsol is authorized to take m mrys at thu mill. The oatmeal null 1 will pass over, as no doubt Mr Hi it man can tell best who meil it as a \V. ('. 'I luti he finishes by claiming i li.it I am no merchant. Well, if Mr. llcitnifui pit M nt H his placitof business iif the pink of perfection for cl.-Hiih ness, neatness and order, and lnnurll as n model merchant, why wo ha\e lo ailluil lhat v.i- i- mm. t get there, but must lemain doing the work must l\i -, l;'T|>iiij.: on.- bunks aiul doing our own wriliiii; wilhoul calling in other aid.
