The Whig knows, too, of what has occurred in with another engine, one at the water works pump house. It was supposed and of very little value.

The Keeley engine is a valuable asset to-day, and Commissioner Birkett is to be thank- ed for saving it from 'the scrap heap. The same thing is possible with re- gard to the Chatham fire engine.

The world is much the better be- cause some men have lived and la- . boured in it. I'he thought comes to one as he contemplates the death of two journalists who were well known ; in Kingston. The. first was Thomas A, Greig. He represented the Mail at the stormiest political meeting that had ever been held in Kingston. It Was nomination day, in 1872. A dpecial but temporary platform had been built out from the steps of the old police court, at the north end of « the City Hall. Canada's premier was a candidate for reelection. His opponent was Me. Carruthers, a Liberal of the Lib- erals, a man to whom the party owed more than to any other man for its strong position in this old city. A most unusual scene occurred. High . words and disputes led to blows. Even the candidates became involved, and in the melee the reporters'. table was overturned. Greig was there, and his report of the event became this- | toric. Ah, yes; Greig could write anywhere, under any circumstances, and his was a faithful record of any- thing he saw.

No one could sell stuff to the Government whose name was not upon it. Slater's was there, in very large letters. The Gauthier Shoe Company has the pull that counts with the Gov- ernment.

There is no doubt that he has! flatly denied all inferences that his! mission in Switzerland is to obtain peace for Turkey but these denials, according to the despatches from Rome, should not be taken too ser- iously. © -- A Biting Criticism.
