In Montreal, in St. Antoine division, the Hon J. 8. Hall hoe been deolnred elec- ted by sixteen votes. and this result has been reached by rejecting the returns of three polling divisions in which Mr. Biokerdike, liberal, had a majority. In heee three polling divisions the deputy returning oilicere failed to inclose their etetemente of the reeult. as they were bound in law to do. In one place the deputy left the poll in the middle of the day, and for three quarters ol an hour it was in charge of his clerk. As the law is explicit on the point that all ballots must be initiulled by the deputy returning oioer. it followe, if the above information be correct. that all lnllote initielled by the poll clerk must be discarded. As Mr. Hall obteined I mnjority oi thirty-two at this poll, the chances are that he would be the uulferer by a recount, which would result in the throwing out of these wrongly-initialed ballots.

It was. as 0 Toronto paper uaerts. "tho bittereat. campaign over waged on the question," which is. perhaps, the correct. expression to use. and one indiomive of tho fooling which some imported into the con- tent. Both sides were warned by pasting events, and the advocates of both sides gave vent. to the anxiety with which they viowod the 0nd of nine cdnicb. It will please all lovers of liberty. equality, and fraternity. says the Star. which favoured in Sunday service, "to lmow that the poor man hae at lenet a Sun- day carriage, swift and inexpensive. The Sunday cure. having carried, will probably begin to carry passengers a week from to- morrow." Perhape not. There are some things about the vote to be con- eidered. and one of theeo is the lairneee ol the hate need. the facilitiel provided. or unprovided. for a correct and indiepntahle expression of pub- lic opinion.

May 17,--(To the Editor) : We are ailwell aware that our city has often been termed a slow one-horse tcwnl and whilel ieel disposed to resent the im- putation I must candidly. not reluctantly. confess that there is too much room for the charge. This is owing mainly to the jealousy and coveteusness of many of our own leading men of buslneesrand it will never amount to anything else so long as they continue to exercise their sellish pro- pensities in the manner they have since the proposal of the Mooers company to accept the $25,000 and build the elevator has been before the citinens. The olfer of the council to give that amount has been a well-known fact of nearly two years stand- ing; and it was so posed by the people enerally that the K1. T. company would the most likely concern to take hold cl it; but they would not touch the project because the bonus was not double what it was; and, I am credibly inlormed, the out- side manager of that company here said they would get it too. Butgnc sooner does another Ringstonian come forward and oil'er to accept the sum agreed upon and to do the work required than the Richardson I-li09-uboliod up by the aforesaid manager, wt updn strenuous and bitter opposition to the ooers company to prevent them from being entrusted with the undertaking. Simply because they, having allowed the oifer to slip out of their hands, and lost the chance which other people accepted, are now like dogs in the manger. annoyed with themselves and everybody else be- cause of their own folly and shortsighted ness, and are determined, if their obstruc- tion can accomplish it. to kill the under- talring altogether. as they have lost it they are bound tnnt no one else hall have it. And these are the men who have. directly and indirectly, fared well at the city's hands, in exemptions from taxation on the knitting mill, the cotton mill, the oilcloth factory, wharf and other roperty ; some of them having turned out ailurcs and others notthc boons we wereled tocxpectthem to be. And now. just when someone else with more enterprise than themselves steps in and ollaavs to go on with an enterprise thatwillprorca real benefit to us at loss aid than they were holding oil for and willing to take, they are doing their best to upwt. Consistent and creditable conduct is it not Y Worse than all we nd about half oi our alder- men ranged on their side. Some through personal friendship for the obstructionists, and others through narrow, political purti` zanship as a reading of the list and debates in council clearly shows. is the welfare of our city to be destroyed by such aldermen as these on such small and paltry excuses as are set up? I ask the citizens to keep a sharp eye on these members and give thorn to understand that when next they appear for re-election that there is no further use for lhenrand relegate them to stay at home,nnd return men to iill their places who'will more worthily represent tin Arc such tactics as those exhibited in other places 1' Look at Toronto, for example. in ta...-nnzl I-I.-sntnmn Iwmnunn nf Min places I hook Ill: loronbo, xur eusuipiu. t `is termed lngtown because of the ellorts all classes of its citizens put forth to secure every possible enterprise that looms up. ls that course net creditable to them?

Of one thing these ahorteighted people may reat assured. that if they succeed in defeating this undertaking they will never get the opportunity of going on with it. ml, rst of all, they would not take the amount ollbrod because it was not twice as much. and are now sorry for having de- clined: and secondly. would not tulle it now had the mower: or some one elee not accepted it. That being the case. and be- cause of their obetruction. they will never get the chalice to build it either. There in no thanketo them in doeiring to get i hold olit now.

But. unfortunately the re verso is the role here. in this very case I understand that one of the leading obstructionists, a grain man, made the bout a day or two ago, that on- lose he (or we, as he I!) said to have put it) got the controlling interest in this olovntor ruhcme, the Mooers company would never be permitted to build nnd operate it, mid if they did szot it he would see that they got no grain to handle. us he controlled. or would control. all the groin coming into this port I Isn`t that n creditable and bmiiitifdl spirit to entertain?
