November 7th, 1884. G. In: fenclmi foils @onttc Saturday [March 7th, 1885. A convention of temperance workers and sympathizcrs to make preparations for the submission of the Scott Act in the county of Victoria was held last Thursday alternoou in the Opera House, Lindsay, and the meeting was both large and enthusiastic. His Ilonour Judge Dean occupied the chair, and Mr. Spence, the Well-known delegate of the Dominion Alliance. explained the course to be pursued and directed the proceedings. The object of the convention was to form what will be known as the " Victoria Branch of the Dominion 'l‘cmpt-rancc Alliance," and Mr. l'iyrc~, a respected and popular res- ident of the township of .\Iariposa, was r-l-oted president; after which there wore elected as many vice-presidents as there are reeves in our county council, as all the territory joined to Victoria for municipal purposes is included in the county :tlliant't'. Mr. II. W. Greene was CIt‘CItElI for I’enelon Falls, and it will be his and his fellow vice-presi- dents' duty to «all meetings in their re- spietivc municipalities for the purpose of forming local organizations. The Scott Act will probably be submitted in this county about the end of Jttuc, and no one doubts that it will be car- ried by a large majority. On Thurs- day evening there was a mass meeting in the Opera House, which was not large enough to hold all who wished to Obtain: admittance, and Mr. Spence delivered a stirring and eloquent ad- ,drcss that delighted his audience and was'1fta-queutly interrupted by loud ‘ burst’fi of applause. l' T Bad news from the Soudou appears to be It Ion;r whilc reachingr England, or else it is kept secret for some days after its arrival, as it was not, until 'l'uosday last. that we heard of the loss of 28 oili- eers and (532 men of the Knssala garri- son, who made a sortie against the Mahdi‘s men on the '_’nd of February and were forced to retire. The other news is for front satisfactory. General Ilullcr’s retreat from anat to Gnkaul was successfully accomplished without loss, and he altcrwards returned with his entire force to Korti, where General llruekenbury is also to go by order of Wolscley. The. troops are to remain there lodged in straw huts during the summer , but it is feared that the in- teuse heat will cause many deaths and that the men will be constantly harassed by the rebels. Typhoid fever has al- ready made its appearance at Korti; General Wolsehy’s eyes are affected by the glare of the sun, and General Ura- liam is suffering lrom an abscess in one of his ankles, the result of an accident which happened to him while in Hot:- laud. Disssirous as the campaign in Egypt has thus far been, no one in or out of authority in England dreams of discontinuing the War until the Mahdi has been crushed, and when the heated term is over hostilities will be prosecu- ted with redoublcd vigor. The guards left London some time ago, and other troops will follow as soon as they are needed. So far we have not seen it definitely stated that the. offer of color uinl assistance has been accepted ; but a despatch front Sydney. .V S. W., dated March 3rd. says: “The New South Wales contingent for the Souulan campaign, eonipridng Still men, started to day." The IIIIC>I despalcb says that Wolseley has removvd to Dongola. he War in the Sioudaa. Trent Valley Canal. The ball roll~. We are pleased to see that the counties councils along the route of the Trent waters took up the qutstioo. at their last meeting. of the completion of the canal at as early :1 day as tossible. with 'fm'nruble results (In a vote of the courtly council of I’c- . terboro'. the warden of that county is " . arranging with the other ttlltttit‘iprt.ilit'~ ' more particularly interested to send a small deputation to Ottawa to press the ? question on the government; but we see that since that arrangement was . commenced the government has placed in the estimates over $3,00thtmu for: railways and canals. As the Trent Val- ley t'anal would naturally get a fair 3 proportion of this amount, a deputation may not be necessary. The question. , has not: been thoroughly discuswd. and 'a large deputation Li! a deputation at all is needed) would not be necessary. However small the deputation might be, ll quld be more influential than either of the tie large deputations that have already visited Ottawa on this question. It would be armed with 190.000 ar5u~ i l . enter upon bylaw to withdan lot 20 in the 55th ments that they did not possess, because - every dollar already spent on the canal is an argument in favour of its cun- plction. A writer in the Montreal Star. of a recent date, who is thoroughly comers ant with the whole subject. mentions the fact that during last summer five1 million bushels of grain from the west- ern ~tnte= were landed at the elevator v : at Midland on the Uvorgiau Bay, and 5 carried Ot'er the Midland Railway. which runs parallel to the Trent \'a.ley . waters. to Port Hope. This writer iler says that in one Week tiUl) empty ears Were dispatched from Belleville to Mid- land for the transportation of this grain from lake to lake. To carry this quan- tity of grain it rtquired 12.500 cars carrying 400 bushels each ; whereas 2!."U ban-es carrying 25 000 bushels erch would have been sufficient for the purpose, had the Trent Valley Canal been finished and in working order, The opening of the Trent Valley Canal would be the solution, too, of the burn- ing qut-stion now agitating the business men of Montreal and Quebec, and is likcly, if not settled in this way, not only to defeat the government of the day, but to break up the conlederzttit’nu. This is the question between Montreal and Queva on the one side, and the C. l’. R. on the other; the C. l’. R. in- sisting on carrying the grain both in summer and winter direct to the sea board : Montreal and Quebec contend ing. on the other hand, that grain car- ried in summer should be shipped on ocean-going vessels in their harbours Now if the Trent Valli-y Canal were opened, the grain landed at Midland would be carried direct in barch, with- out truushipmcnt, to the harbours of Montreal and Quebec, and winter ports they do not require. We hope to see this chcd question settled by the speedy opening of the Trent Valley Canal. which can be settled in no other way. except at the expense of Montreal and Quebec, which would virtually amount to the destruction of those cities. The Presbyterian Entertainment. The combined social and concert in aid of the Fcnelon Falls Presbyterian church fund came off. according to ad- vertisement, in Ingram's hall last Tues day evening, and the attendance was very good ; though there would no doubt have been more present from the country if the evening had not been so stormy. An excellent tea was provided by the ladies of the congregation, and after all had freely and fully partakeu of it the tables \Vcre removed and prep aratious Were made for the second part of the evening’s entertainment. The managers having decided upon seeing what unassisted local talent could do. all who took part were residents of the village except. Mr. John Petty. ol Lind- say ; but, as he formerly lived for a con- siderablc time at the Falls. he can 0 1,. be regarded as a Fetal-outsider. Almost all our readers know that Mr. Petty is a capital singer, especially of comic songs, and as he was in excellent voici on Thursday evening and good natured ly responded to repeated mam-es, hr largely aided in making the concert a success. Mr. and Mrs. John D. Smith. Mr. and Mrs. Findley McDougall, Mrs A. Wilson, Mrs. Joseph McArthur and Mr. McKcowu were the other singer.» and added to their previously acquired laurels. and the ladies took turns at the organ kindly loaned for the occ;t.~‘i0u by Mr. John Austin. The brass band was present and played several choico sclec tions with great spirit; and a vaer tum- by Mr. Sylvester on the coruet and Mr Rednor on the violin was greatly ad- mired. In addition to the music and singing there were dialogues by the young folks, who acquitted themselves fairly \chI. though some of them com tuitth the common fault. of speaking too rapidly. A good deal of arnu-cuicnt was caused by the unexp ctcd appeau ance of little Clare McArthur. used 5. who, marchng to the front of the stage, turned his right shoulder to the audi- ence and piped out a little ditty with which he had no doubt been carefully loadedâ€"M rs. McDoueall accompanying him on the organ. The entertainment. though not the best we have attended at the‘I’alls, was still a good one, and us the. expenses were very small nearly all the receipts, which were $45, will be added to the church fund.

Mr. Steele and his colleague Mr. Adam, and a glorious work is going on. Quite a number have enjoyed peace through believing in Jesus, and many are seeking the Lord. The front pews are filled every night with earnest. Seek- ers of salvation, and the interest is in- creasing. May the good work go on till this entire neighbourhood is brought to a saving knowledge of the truth as it. is in Jesus, is the prayer of the writer. On Fcb’y 26th the Rev. Mr. Watch, of Fenclou Falls, delivered a temperance lecture in the above named church to a large and attentive congregation, the church being filled to its utmost ca- pacity. The nice-ting was presided over by the. president, Mr. Alexander Ellis. The lecture. which was greatly appreci- ated. and will long be remembered, was delivered in connection with the Gospel 'l‘omperuncc Society organizod some live weeks ago. Its members now number 68, and these all signed the pledge in two nights. We Izopc to have litany more follow suit. So much for Bctlli'cl congregation.

ICE.â€"â€"â€"Ilotcl keepers, butchers and others who need ice in summer are now laying in a supply, and a great many sleigh-loads have lately passed the Gri- zruu office on their way front Cameron Lake to the main street, where most of it is stored. The ice this year is about two feet thick and unusually good ; and. as it is out near the current of the river, it is very clear and free from impurities. A CHILD IlUttT.â€"Last “'cdncsday forcnoon little Clare McArthur, our rceve‘s only child, met with an accident â€"thouglt fortunately not a serious one â€"whilc riding in n sleigh in which the organ nst at the Presbyterian concert in Ingram's ball was being taken home.

Liston McMillt-n, a lawyer of Oska- loosa, Iowa, has challenged Robert G. Ingcrsoll to engage in a joint discussion With him at Chicago, in which he will affirm that Christ was raised from the dead ; that delirium tremcns is a dentu- niac possession ; that insanity is a dc- moniac possession, wherever it assumes a violent or vicious form; that the sick can be healed and devils cast out in the name of Christ, through faith in His name and promises. McMillan agrees to heal the sick and cast out devils in the method pointed out. in thu- scriptures, and gives lngersoll the priv- ilege of selecting any sick or insane person he may choose. McMillcu de- clares he is not working for mercenary gain, but hopes to enlist. lugcrsoll in the cause of the Redeemer. The gen- tleman mentions several cases in which he claims to have driven out devils and cured delirium trcmens. ‘â€" A Plain-Speaking Preacher. The Rev. Newman Hall is to be com- mended for his outspokeuncs in regard to the “ war of revenge.” Speaking on Sunday at Christ Church. Westminster road, he said :â€"“ I leave to others the. political aspect; but, as a Christian minister, I think it right to ask you to weigh such considerations as the. follow- ingzâ€"Thzit revenge means the slaught- er of some thousands of Arabs and U! some hundreds of our brave soldiers; that these Arabs of the Soudau have by Gordon himself been proclaimed free, and therefore are no rebels; that they are in arms against the cruel and op- pressive tyranny of Egypt; that they are in their own land, protecting it, a- gainst foreign invaders seeking to bring them back to bondage, and are doing just. what we should do in their case. The people. if asked to support the cou- tiuuance of War, should ask themselves whether there is snllicicnt necessity in this case to justify a departure from the plain meaning of the teaching of the Prince of Peace." --. »_r._â€".â€" Swindliug the Farmers. The Boston Herald exposes the meth- ods practised by a gang of swiudlors who have been fleecing farmers in Vcr mont, Quebec, New York, Ohio and Illinois under the pretence of conduct- ing a bunnfidc produce commission bus- incss. Three of the swindlcrs, Oliver W. Roper. H. W. Colson and J. W. Harris, are awaiting trial for conspiracy, but the fourth, who is Well known to the police, is still at large. The prac- tice of the gang was to adopt a firm name, dilfcring only by a single letter from some house doing a legitimate bus- iness, then to have printed bill heads. which \verc circulated among the farth- crs, together with a cirmzalr offering prices for produce in excess of the cur- rent market quotations. The swindlors also engaged in banking business under the firm name of the National loan and trast company, of Boston, assuring their victims that they booked with that company, and that drafts on the con- cern would be honoured. Unsuspccting farmers drew upon the company, only to have their drafts returned. The gang has also operated in similar trans- TEE BREAD AND COAL TAXES.

Stephens states that. he was invited to attend the conclavc of dynamiters which met in Paris on Sunday lliglll. Since then he has seen Several of the leading delegates to the congress. All are determined men, who are acting for the’pno object. of liberating Ireland. Stephens says he has successfully labored to induce sev- eral delegates to suspend dynamite. op- cratiolts for the present, and until the meeting of another couciave, which In- is arranging to meet. in Paris in the near future. At this meeting Stephens has promised to expound a new plan for an organized uprising in Ireland.
