We doubtfhowever, whether their course was as wise a one as could have been adopted ; for if the meeting had really been a “ public ” oneâ€"ifpol- itics had been thrust as far as possible out of sight, and the electors generally had been invited to glorify Mr. Camer- on simply as the advocate of the Trent. Valley Canal, it is not at all improbable that a good many reformers might have attended the banquet, and that some few of them, who place the interests of Fonclon Falls before the lllttll‘L‘SlSOf the Dominion at large, might have become his supporters. The attempt to make it a political demonstration was, there- fore, a mistake; for reformers feel that their opponents desire to monopolize the whole credit of having brought. a~ bout. the commencement of the canal; which was advocated and insisted upon by con party just as strongly as by the other. Mr. Cameron certainly deserves the thanks of all his constituents for his action in the premises, and it was a blunder not to invite all of them to thank him. Our conservative friends are not as wide awake as we thought they were. They had It splendid op- portunity to at least attempt to “ rope in " a few reformers, and they recklchly threw it away. The WorkT-rogresses. It is now only fifteen days since work commencud on the c-tnnl in this village, and although, on account of the length and width of the cut, {I frequent visitor may fancy that it is progressing rather slowly. a vast change has already bt-cn made at the scene of operations. Even where the solid rock lies within a few inches of the surface the banks of the canal are clearly defined, while at other points a considerable depth has been at mined. On Wednesday evening the first l blast (not Counting those on " inaugu- ration day ") was fired off at the west end of the cut. close to the edge of the river. and has since been followed by others at irregular intervals. East of ('olhornc street several days had to be ‘ spent in “ rcdding up " before earth was nu reached, the old piiiu-v uround having to g be cleared of the odds and ends ofluni- 'bt-r which had been accumulating for years, and many scores of loads of this material were drawn away, while a con- siderable quantity of heavyslubs and planks, too far decayed to be of any value. were consumed in it bcofirc start- ed for the purpose.

The L'mmdu Presbyterian of October . 15th contains the following obituary no- ; tlce of the late Rev. w... Lochead. Sr., 'futher of the Rev. Wm. Lucliead, of this village :â€" “ This faithful minister of the Gosâ€" pel. and one of the fathers of our Church. died on the 25th nit... at. Elm- wood, Huntley, whilst on a visit. to his daughter, Mrs. Hugh Gout-lay, in the eighty-second year of his age. He was a native ofGlusgow, Scotland. Having completed his Arts course in the Uni- versity of that city, following the exam- ple of many of the students of the Re- , lief Church, of which he was a member, 1 he studied Divinity in the Glasgow hall of the Church of Scotland for two years, and took him last session in the Di- vinity hall of the Relief Church at Pais- ley, after which he was licensed in 1829. He was married immediately afterwards and came. to Canada in the same year. , He supplied the pulpit of St. Andrew’s church, Montreal. for about six months, during the absence of Rev. Dr. Mathie- son in Scotland. When the pastor of St. Andrew's returned, Mr. Lochcnd went to Kingston, where he preached to a body of Presbyterians until he accepted a call to be pastor to the Third l’reisby- terian Church, Albany, N. Y.. where he was ordained in December, 1830. He remained in the United States, filling very cfiicicntly several important posi- tions, until he returned to Canada in 1845, and was inducted into the charge of Osgoode and Gloucester, which, feel- ing old age creeping upon him, he re- signed, and retired in 1873, taking up his abode at Almonte, on which occdsion his congregation presented him with an address, expressing their regard and es- teem fur him, accompanied with a fine silver service. lIis remains were bro't to his son’s residence, Almonte, on Mon- day evening, and from thence on Wed- nesday were borne to the Old Kirk Cemetery, lamsay, six Presbyterian ministers acting as pull bearers. The Rev. John Bennett. of St. Andrew’s ohurch, ofl‘iciatcd, and, at the request of the deceased, preached his funeral sermon on the following Sabbath cven- ing to a large congregation. Mr. Loc- head was highly esteemed by all who knew him. He was a good man and a faithful minister of the Gospel. He took an active interest in the Bible Society, the temperance cause. and all benevov lent enterprises ; and though for the last few years out of the pastorate, he still I loved to occupy a pulpit, and to pro- claim to his fellow-men the Gospel of Jesus Christ. [In was a Presbyterian of the good old Scottish type, yet no bigot, loving all God's people and dc- ligbting to co-operatc with them in the work of the common Muster. Ho madc it one of the valet of his life to give to the Lord one-tenth of his income. And this he did to the very end. leaving eight hundred dollars to the I‘rusbytc- rian College, Montreal, three hundred and fifty dollars to the schemes of the Church, and fifty dollars to the Bible Society. “ Blessed are the dead which (lie in the Lord from henceforth; yea. saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.” "The righteous shall be in cv erlasting remembrance." Thcdcceawd gentleman has left. behind him a widow’ two daughters and three sons, two of whom are respected ministers of our Church, the one at Fenclon Falls and the other at Londcsboro’.

Thursday next. the 9th inst., has been appointed as a day of thanksgiving for the bountiful har- vest, and it ought. to be. observed in we may safely predict that it will not be unless the reeve issue a proclamation to that effect. Nzw CROSSINGâ€"During the past week a new cranking has been laid down on the west side of Colborne street at l Bond street. and not before it was ace-l- ed. as the old one was in a terribly dil- apidated and dangerous condition. If ,villnge they will find several places ' where repairs are needed.

M. I.

V. C. celebration last. week, that the village band was presented with ten dollars by Mr. A. P. Macdonald, the lcontractcr, and five dollars by Mr. ; Hector Cameron, for which they return- l ed brief but hearty thanks. Such pres- entations are so rare that we would much rather record them two or three times over than not at all. THE IRON Balboaâ€"While standing on the iron bridge one day this week, we noticed that a horse attached to a buggy was driven over it at a smart. trot, and the person to whom we were talk- ing at the time said he had lately seen horses not. only trotted but even gallop- ed along the bridge. 11‘ this is injuri- ous to the structure, of which there can be little doubt, the customary prohibi. tions ought to be put up at once. REV. P. J. Tmax's anruax.-â€"A large audience, composed by no means exclusively of Catholic, assembled in the Catholic church in this village last Wednesday evening, to listen to Father Tinan's lecture on " The Reason of Be- lief." The reverend gcnileman, who is an able and eloquent speaker, handled his subject in a masterly manner, and from first to last secured the undivided attention of his pleased and interested hearers. I’IALLO\\'E'EN.â€"Last Tuesday even- ing was hallowc'cn, and the village boys celebrated it with more than usual mod. oration, for which they are to be com- mended. Somc fire crackers were lct off after dark and a few pranks were played. but none. we believe, that in- flicted loss or injury on any personâ€" tlie worst we have heard of beingr the abstraction of two or three of Mr. Moore's shutters, which were taken off his store windows and hidden in a neighbour’s woodshed " l’ussv 1N Tun \\’nt.i..”â€"Last Mon- day mornng the voice of it distressed cut. was heard proceeding from the well at the Mansion House corner, and upon moving one of the planks of the plat- form pussy was observed clinging to the stones just above the water, in which, from her soaked condition, she had evidently been taking a swim. A board was let down to her in the ex- pectation that she would walk up it. but as she declined to do so, a man had to descend and fetch her up. TttRowN.-â€"Last Tuesday evening, l as Mr. Wui. Dabson, of Vcrulitm, who came into the village on horseback. was turning at the corner of Cnlhorne street and Francis street cast. his horse broke through the. crossing, and, its fovit stick- ing in the hole, Mr. Dobson was thrown a distance of many fcct. Fortunately neither man nor heart was injured ; In both had a narrow escape from n. seri- ous accident, the pecuniary consequenc- es of which, litttl it occurred, would have fallen upon the corporation. A OBSERVED 'l‘iuuir'rn.-â€"'l‘he Bob- cuygcon Imlqiemliznt, in its last week’s r-inarks with reference to the Trent Works, pays the following: well deserved tribute of praise to Mr. Thomas I). Belclicr, Superintendent Engineer, who frotn first to last has been one of the most earnest and energetic advocates of the canal :â€"-“ For some years Mr. Bcl- clier has given untirinj,r attention to this scheme, attention that has been given entirely con mnm'e, without cx- pcctation of reward either directly or indirectly. It has been to the efforts of this gentleman that the pot has been kept boiling, so to speak, and the suc- cessful issue to the present is due in a great measure to his unccusiug exer- tions." THE Suvaâ€"Mr. Win. Kennedy, of Bf)l)Cil_\'L:cOlt, who has bccn for many years in the employ of the Dominion Govurnnicnt, is iii Fenclon Falls super- inteudiug some repaint to the slide. Parts of the bottom have been replaced from time to time, and the remainder. which is in a very rottcn condition. is now being torn up, after which new sleepers will be put in and covered with maple plank, which has proved to be much the best for the purpose. The north side or wall of the slide is also to be partially rebuilt; but the other can- not be touched without stopping the sowmill, and the question as to the own- ership of the south side of the slide is not definitely scttlcd. The repairs a- bout to be commenced will cast. fully $1,500, and will keep ten or a dozen men busy for five or six weeks. Picsâ€"Mr. Richardson, of Milibrook, arrived at Fenclon Falls last. Monday. and has since been making. raids into l the surrounding country purchasing lpigs, small drives of which may be I seen, at intervals ofn few hours, march- ing gracefully and majestically along l the main leCe-t of the village on their ‘ way to the railway itation. On Thurs. day morning we heard that he had bought about a him lred. and still they come. The pricu paid is $5 50 per one hundred pounds livo weight, with a tri- fling deduction for dried mud, with which agood many of them are more or less covered.

Paunv Sousa, Oct. 2S.â€"The Coro- was a deem”! success; but as we were ner’s inquest into the Inns of the Asia resumed last night. No further evi- dence belu; forthcoming, the coroner recupitulated what. had been alleged and laid before the court, and then charged the jury, laying before them the fact that. the evidence before them showud an insuflicient equipment of the boats, and that had those boats been properly supplied with ours and other portions of boats' equipments they might have weathered the storm, the boats' head might have been kept to the wind, the frequent capsizing might. not have resulted, and the fatal strain on the men's powers of endurance might have been avoided. The jury in forty uiin~ utes returned the following verdict :â€" “ That. John Savage, John McDonald, John M. Calpin, and two others. names unknown, came to their death in consc- qucnce of the wreck of the steamer Asia and uuduc exposure in open boats; that the exposure was caused by an insuf~ ficient. equipment of those boats, inns~ much as there were only three cars in the three boats, and nothing with which to bail out the boats; that the afore- said insufiicient equipment was the re- sult of gross and culpable negligence on the part of some person or pcrsous un- known to thejury, and that those per- sons are therefore guilty of man- slaughter.” An Enterprising Advertiser. A Chicago ready-made clothing deal- er ncarly caused a riot the other day by announcing that. he would throw 100 fall style overcoats from the top of his warehouse for anybody to pick up. As the appointed hour approached the street became densely packed in the vi- cinity of the dealer's store, and when finally the police tried to do what they should have done earlierâ€"keep the tho. rcughfure openâ€"they found themselves unable to do so without resorting to a degree of physical force that the model Mayor Harrison, who was on the ground, would not authorize. When the work of disposing of the overcoats began there was a shrieking, and yelling such as the Chicago Board of Trude even is said to have never equalled. Very few of the garments were secured cntirc by the lucky ones, and the num~ ber of good suits that were ruined in the melee is likely to enable the enter- prism}:r fellow to realize a thousand per cent. on his investment. By the time one-third of the number had been flung to the ground the uproar was so great that. the Mayor forced his way into the store and told the man that he must stop the distribution. This was readi- ly enough agreed to. as he could very well afford to do. It takes a Chicago man to make trade lively when trade is dull. -~4>._~_._ .___ Political Influence Abused. QUEBEC, Oct. 30,â€"Tlic Chronicle in- din has an excellent. article scv»..~rely COlltlflllllllllg the attempts of political influence to interfere with the course of justice. It has been provoked by the proceedings in the case of 'l‘nrgcoii, who was tried lately for rape at Levis. and on conviction of criminal us<ault sentenced to two years in the Penitenti- ary. Ever since the sentence no effort has been spared, it seems, to secure. a mitigation froin the Minister of Justice. Not only have the convict’s lawyers gone to Ottawa for the purpose, but Mr. Ainyot, M. P., the Crown prosecu- tor on the Occasion, and Dr. Blnncliet. M. 1)., of Levis, have left no stone un- turned to attain the same end. As the Chronicle puts it :â€" Mcinbors of Parliament have been racing all over the country, and getting names appended to lengthy petitions praying for the mitigation of the sen. tenor: of the condemned man, who it may be mentioned is still in guol here. The Local Government. seconded the views of the politicians moving in his favor by consenting to not send him on with the other convicts to St. Vincent dc Paul until Ottawa has decided. It was not contcndcd that the trial was not fair and impartial, and we must protest against. making our Courts of law a roaring farce, and turning the princi- ples ofjusticc into ridicule. There has been too much of this interference hitc- ly, and its continuance cannot but have a most fatal effect on our whole judicial system. The way of the transgrcsisor should be made hard, and he should know that there are no avenues open to him thro' which he can escape. lrinie should be punished as it deserves, and every man or woman who commits it should know at the very outset that the sentences of the Court will always be carried out to the letter. No criminal should be allowed to entertain the no- tion fora single instant that political influence is nil-powerful, and thatjudg- es and the Courts may be swayed and clicckiuuted by the exercise of it. Once that idea got among the dangerous classes this country would soon become uninhabitabie by honest men. The poll- ticians have their duties to perform, so have thejudges. and so has the Minis- ter of Justice. M r. Turgoon should not be liberated because he has political iii- flnciice, and if there are no higher grounds for the exercise of Executive clemency than that. he should remain and finish out his sentence in the prison selected for him. That is the only prop- er way to luck at. the question. 9 - .â€".__._. _.__ Tue Drag at Work.
