At the Conrti of Ilwvi-ion the tenants asked to be re- l luawd from tlw taxes on the land. which t._quv'st was (:uutplied with. and Mr. Jordan was assessed for it instead, of. though an objection was rai-cd on his behalf by Mr. Barron. Mr. Jordan, ghowever, did not appeal; but, when ’ collecting time came. paid the amount. €354, under protest, and then sued to recover it. Contrary to general expect- iution, he got judgment for $50 with lcosts, and the corporation will cease- iquently lose about 855, unless the talk- ied-of new trial is applied for and judg- 6 meat reversed.

Vote for the Scott Act. , Thursday next, the 23rd inst, is the , day appointed for the people of this county to vote for or against the Scott Act, and We are happy to know that almost everybody is of the opinion that it will carry by a fair. and probably by a large, majority. The evils inflicted on the community by the traffic in in- toxicating liquors are so obvious and so tremendous that we shall vote for the Scott Act with only less heartincss than we shall vote for the more stringently prohibitory measure which will ere long be submitted to the people. We have never belonged to the class of fanatics who declare that it is a glaring iniquity to drink a glass of beer, wine or spirits occasionally, nor do we deny that the Scott Act, like all restrictive measures, will interfere with the enjoyment of what to many is a harmless or nearly harmless luxury; but laws are, or ought to be, intended to secure " the greatest good of the greatest number,” and no one can deny that. the use of intoxicants is, directly or indirectly, the cause of three-lourthsâ€"some say nine-tenthsâ€" of all the crime, disease and poverty for the punishment, cure and relief of which gallows have to be erected, hospitals and asylums built and charitable soci- eties organized. Knowing this. and feeling sure that as long as malt and spirituous liquors can be obtained they will be drunk to excess by the great majority of those who drink them at all, we are ready and willing to vote away our present privilege ofquenching our thirst with half a gallon of beer or a small pailful of lemonade with a stick in it, and we can hardly be expected to be more regnrdful of other people’s privileges than of our own. Apart from those who make money out. of the liquor traffic, nearly all who oppose the Scott Act do so from one of two reasons; they are either so selfish that they will not give up a small gratification for the benefit bf society, or they are already so fond ofintoxicnuts that they feel it will be painful to abstain from them. For the first we have no consideration whatever; for the second, who are on the high road to ruin, we have, and know of no better way of showing it than by voting for the Act and urging others to vote for it also. On Thursday evening, after the a. bovc was in type, we heard all but the opening sentences of an admirable lee- ture in the interests of the Scott. Act, in the Methodist church, by the Rev. Benjamin B. Keefer, agent of the Do- minion Temperance Alliance. Mr. Keef- er, though a clergyman. neither preached nor spoke in a sermonizing tone, but delivered a most excellent address, a- buunding in facts and arguments, spiced here and there with laughable anecdotes appropriate to the subject. The Act, he said. has proved so beneficial wherev- icr it has bren passed that the people i are delighted with its results, and the six attempts made in different counties to have it rescinded have all sign-ally tfailed. The ratepayers of Hulton, in i particular, could not be bribed to oppose | the Act, as they found that crime de- l creased. business got better, property l rose rapidly in value, and, pccuniarily. Ithe county was better off without the. monev received from licenses than with it. The “barley question " was the last point touched upon. and in discuss- ing it the speaker made a decided hit. Addreaing an imaginary farmer, he still: “ You are told that if the Scott closed and cannot consume your barlev. which will be a great calamity; but will i it ? It is a goal thin-.2. no doubt, to be table to sell your barley at a paying price; but what do you have to do to enable the brewer to buy it ? lie of course won't purchase your grain unless he can sell his beer; and the consequence is that you have to work hard all day to raise a bushel of barley. for which the l have to sit up all night to drink the If) gallons of beer he produces from it I " will be held all over the county between ’ not and polling d iy. the 23rd inst . Ind ‘JI‘II‘ paid the taxes on the land until the time of the fire, and Mr. Jordan for the remainder ofthe year; and it is said that the cnuncil offered, when Mr. Jor- dan objected to paying, to throw off the portion that ought to have been paid by the tenants, but he refused any com~ promise, and the Judge has said, in l effect, that the tenants were responsible l for the whole year's taxes, although the l owner of the land restored their leases ' and resumed possession of the property lbefore onethird of the year had ex- pired. This may be law, but it isn't justice. unless the two are synonymous; and, if they are, one of our delusions is ruthlessly dispelled. Illustrated War News. “'0 have received the fifteenth num- ber of the Canadian Pictorial and If- lustrutcd War News. The publishers have reduced the price to ten cents per copy, thus placing it within the reach of all.

STRAWBERRY FESTIVAL.â€"-At the strawberry festival in Mr. Anderson's grounds last Wednesday evening, in aid of the Mechanics’ Institute, there were so many present that the nice little sum of $30 35 was cleared over all ex- penses. The grounds were brilliantly lighted with Chinese and other lanterns, and, the weather being fine, the festival was a great success. 3%“ Big bargains in remnants of Tweeds at Huuu McDounALn's.

The strawberry season is now about over, but raspberries, which are beginning to ripen, promise to be equally abundant; and between the two nearly every housekeeper will be able to lay in a good stock of preserves for use next winter. 363‘“ Dress Goods and Prints selling at cost at Even MCDOCGALL'S.

Nor So BAILâ€"Mr. Stephen Nevi- sou's loss by the fall of the shelves in his shop last week did not prove as great as he thought it would when the goods lay scattered on the floor, many of them broken, some bespattered with ink and others soaked in varnish. They were quickly picked up, sorted, and the uninjured ones replaced on the shelves (which are securely nailed to the web this time); and, after a careful esti» mate, Mr. Nevison found that the dam- ages would not much exceed 8100. Mr. Jordan, the owner. of the shop, dropped in soon after the mishap, and, upon being informed of the circum- stances, very properly expressed his willingness to bear part of the loss. 16' flats! flats! lists! all stylosmhcap. i Good soft felt for 75¢. limit MCDUL‘GALL. Tm: CRO?s.-â€"â€"We are glad to learn I from our farming friends that the amp; I this year, taken as a whole, will be fully iup to the average. The great staple wheat is Icoking exceedingly well on the majority of farms. and in some lo calitics there are fields of it which will probably yield from forty to fifty bush- els per acre. On low lmds, of course. some harm has been done by the super- :buudant rain ; but. where that is not E gthe use. there will be good crops of aortic and roots. Meetings on behalf of me so)" Ac, , The accounts as rol hay vary a great deal, some saying: thatl it is worse than it was lie! year and; others that it is a great deal be‘r; but the rubalviilty is that the truth, i 88 for a room. and taken tea a grand prom-mica was formed, and, with banners flyingcor- nets, drums and cymbals playing and voices singing, the streets were paraded for some considerable time. During i l l I one of the pauses Capt. Scott announced , P0 that there wasa small amount owing on the big drum, and that all who wish- ed to aSSist in wiping off the debt might ' fire their pecuniary offerings at him or 3 the drum. whichever they chose. In , stautly, amidst much laughter, there E was a volley of cents. pennies and halfi dimes, and when all were gathered up they were found to amount to something over 82. Later in the evening there was a large and enthusiastic meeting in the hall, the programme, as usual, con- l sisting of singing, praying, scripture reading and exhorting, and the sum of $28 was found in the contribution box at the close of the proceedings. The visitors left for home at about 11 p. in. Ta}: CANAL.â€"\V0rk on the canal is being pushed as rapidly as possible, but it is somewhat interfered with by the logs in the river, which occasionally delay the arrival of the snows from Bob- caygeon, thus causing the masons to run out of stone. The walls of the locks are completed all but a few yards on the north side of the upper lock, and part of the wall of the raceway is also constructed. It was hoped that the masonry would be entirely finished by the lat of August, but it will probably take a week or two longer in conse- quence of the drawback above men- tioned. The entire force of men em- ployed numbers between fifty and sixty, and on Wednesday some of' them com- menced work on the coffer dum at. the railway bridge, as a preliminary to building the piers on which the railway company's swing bridge is to rest. Mr. Macdonald expects to have his contract completed some time in October ; but, as expectations are seldom fully realized, and there is a good deal to be done yet, we doubt whether the finishing touches will be given until the middle or latter cud ofthc next month. Tun 12m OE JULY.â€"â€"Last Sunday, 1 being the 12th of'July, over sixty mem- bers of L. O. L. No. 996 attended diâ€" vine service in St. James's, Fenclou Falls, in full rcgaliu, and, on account of their occupying so many pews and presenting an unusual attraction, the church was crowded to such an extent thatn row of boys had to sit on the chancel steps. In the evening they at- tended the Methodist church in still greater farce, there being about seventyâ€" live present, including seven, dressed in blue, from Cameron. In the morning an appropriate sermon was preached by the Rev. Wm. Logan and in the evcn~ ing by the Rev. C. W. Watch. On Monday there was a grand celebration at Lindsay, in which ttventy-two lodges and six brass bands took part ; but no- fortunately the speaking was premature- ly put an end to by heavy rain, which caused the expectant hearers to scatter agreat deal more quickly than they assembled. The trains issued tickets for the day at reduced fares; but the Orangemcn who had to ride on flat cars. with sticks of' timber for seats, as many of them did, thought the ride was dear enough considering the poorncss of the accommodation. Judge Lynch’s Great Boom. The success of the people ofrTcxas in getting rid of twelve horse thieves yes- terday without the law's delays or un- nertainties calls attention to the remark- able boom which Judgc Lynch is hav- ing this year. In the section of Texas where the trees were thus loaded down with gallows fruit, it is to be presumed thatjustice is scarce in the market and hard to get, so that people have to manâ€" ufacture their own article, the regular old slow-going market either being too far away or too limited to follow the de- mand. There is consolation, however, that the home-made justice, like all oth- er home-made articles, is stout, reliable and effective. The operations of Judge Lynch, however, are not confined to the horse thieves in Texas. His boom is quite general. Since the Ist of January the number of scoundrels lynched in va- rious parts of the country is ninety-nine. ‘ of whom ninety six were males and three females, fifty-eight white and forty-one coloured. As usual, the south takes more than three-fourths of the lot, hav- ing seventy-five against twenty-four cre- dited to the north. Texas takes the lead in lynchings, as it does in crime. More murders, for in~ stance, have been reported by telegraph from that state than from any other state in the union. Among the south- ern states Georgia. Kentucky and Ten- nessee come the nearest to it; but it has three times as many as any of these. It would be curious to compare Missis- sippi with Texas; but murder is such an every-day occurrence there that it is not considered news, and hence is not; telegraphed unless it. is characterized l by circumstances of unusual importance. i With all this crime rampant in Texas, i but two cases of legal hangings have! been reported from the state; which I shows that justice is in a bad way there, , and sufficiently accounts for the enter. prise of the people in administering thir- ty-onc cases themselves. Take it all as , round, it. is an unhealthy year for crim, inals. The legal hanzmnn may not keep ] pace with them, owing to the obstacles that stmd in his way; but Judge Lynch ! is doing well in his efforts to keep up v something like a due relation between crime and its punishmanâ€"Cht'cago Tribune. l o.â€" A man who (mm a farm in Georgia? is selling off his dwelling house by piecemeal, a room at a time.

Mr. M. C. Cameron was ‘ inting out some of the outrageous frauds that have been perpetrated in connection with the purchase of Indian supplies in the North-West, and as mid- night was approaching be asked that he discussion be adjourned. Sir John a low tone that nobody on the Opposi- tion side heard him. and Mr. Cameron, after proceeding some minutes, again urged an adjournment. Sir John said he had agreed to an adjournment before. Mr. Cameron expressed regret that he had not so‘ understood him, and Mr. Bowell was understood to say, “He said so fifty times.” Mr. Cameron flat- ly contradicted M r. Bowcll, and rebuked him for stating what was not true, and for interfering in a matter that did not concern him. Mr. Bowcll, in an angry tone, replied that what he said was that the Premier had assented to an adjourn ment “ fifteen minutes ago." Mr. Cam- eron denied that that was what the Minister of Customs said, when the lat. ter grasped a tumbler of water and made a motion to throw it at Mr. Cum- eron, when he seemed to recollect him- self and refrained, after having thrown the contents of the tumbler over Mr. Paint, who not behind him. Those who sat near Mr. Bowell say that be either called Mr. Cameron a liar or ac- cused the latter of calling him a liar. Such a display of temper on the part of a Minister was hardly dignified. Last night's performance revives a story that M r. Bowcll threatened to throw an ink stand at another member of the Railway Committee some years ago. Sir J ohnis Elephant. OTTAWA, July l3.â€"â€"Major Chapleau, sheriff of the North-west territories, who was summoned to Ottawa immediately after Riel's capture, has again left for the North-west to be present at the trial in his official capacity. The sheriff, whose duty itwill be to hang Riel if the latter is condemned to death. be- licvcs that he will escape the gallows. Many others join him in this opinion, not only that he will escape the hang- mau, but that he will slip through the hands of his guardians, and make golid his escape from the country before maâ€" ny weeks have passed over. He is an elephant on the hands of the govern- ment, who. on one side, are confronted by the Orange element clamouring for his head, while on the rther side the Frenoerunadians threaten trouble if he is not leniently dealt with. The only way Sir John Macdonald can get out of the dilemma is to allow his prisoner to escape and throw the responsibility on the shoulders of the officer in whose care he is placed for safe keeping. There is but one impression here re.- garding the disposition of Riel, and that is that sooner or later he will be spirit- ed awcy across the border to the United States, and this beliefhaa been strength- ened rather than weakened by certain disclosures which have come to light within the past few days. A Land Slide. BOSTON, Mass, July llth.â€"An ac- C(Juni. of the land slide at Littleton, ‘l. 11., this morning says the slide started from Owl’s Head and rushed down the Jefferson side, a distance of two miles. Forest trees, earth and stones were car- ried with it. The mass, increasing in velocity and weight, SWept by the house occupied by the family of Ezra Boud- rcnu, leaving huge logs within twenty feet of the door, and sputtering the house with mud. At this point the slide spread out and wrecked the farm building of Oscar Stanlcr. His wife and children were away and the men were milking the cows. Warned by the roar they fled, and all escaped except Don Walker, who was caught in its ruins. His screams brought help and he was dug out, with a broken leg and other injuries. Several cows and other stock were buried. One man fled in front of the slide and was overtaken just as it came. to a halt. He escaped uninjured. The ruins are spread over a. field of some 10 or 15 acres. Forest trees two and a half feet through were wrung like withes from their places, and hundreds of thousands of feet of timber splintered to feathers. Gaps twenty-five to forty feet deep reveal the trail of the destroyer. Mâ€" The Mahdi is reported dead. The Soudan is in a state of anarchy. A fatal epidemic of mysterious origin is reported in Lisbon. A Minneapolis man sued a neighbour and won 8303 damages. His lawyer awarded him the odd three dollars. The Mayor of Onzain, France, has issued the following order :â€"“ The pro- prietors of dogs or cats suffering or sue pcctcd to be suffering from rabies, shall be put out of existence immediately.” To find out just how much there is in a torpedo as a naval weapon, the British admiralty will cover the ironclad Item's:- , once with sixteen inches of armour and Indn uuux, ex a Whitehead torpedo beneath her hull.

Last week's Evangelical Churclmmn says :â€"Now, we can never expect my Fighting for Whisky. Acousta, Mt. July l3.â€"A desper- ate fight occurred on the afternoon and evening of the 4th near the forks of the Kennebec, in which 75 men were eu- gnged. A party of Frenchmen were moving north on the river road with waggons loaded with liquor, tobacco, die. The train was suddenly attacked at 2 p. m. by I gang of fifteen river drivers. and both sides fought desper- ately until ten o'clock, when the river men were defeated. A large number on both sides were wounded, some fa~ tally. . - .__._‘__ Bobbing Ontario. An American agent, who is now at Ottawa, from New York, gives some particulars of the value of the timber that has been. and is still being, shipped by Sir John Macdonald's favourites off the Indian reserves and the territory lately in dispute. Under license from the Dominion Governmrnt millions of feet of splendid oak timber have been shipped to New York by parties from Walpole Island, Fort William and other Indian reserves and from Hunter's Island and other parts west of Port Arthur. One of the parties who ob- tained these favours from the Dominion Government when in New York some weeks ago stated that he and his muo- ciates paid $10,000 to the Interior De- partlncnt for the permits granted to them, but that they had to pay over $15,000 more to parties whose influence and aid they had to secure before bring- ing the Government to terms. It is supposed that a portion ofthnt $15,000 was USed in the efforts made by the Tories to defeat the Ontario Govern- ment at the general elemiou in 1883. 0. Thought He Was a Cowboy. PHILADELPHIA, Pu.,.lul_v I3.â€"â€"Chas. Krause, a l’retzel baker, visited the Wild West show last week. 'l'o-day, after numerous libations, he imagined himself upon the plains. Armed with n six-burrcllcd revolver, he took his stand at 32nd street and Allcuhany va- enue. As people came out. of the park he took a shot at them. Men and wo- men and children passed along the av- enue, and Krausc blazed away at them until the six barrels in his revolver were exhausted. Seeing a policeman, he ran into his house. He reloaded and determined to sell his life as dearly as possible. Before going upstairs he took a pop at his wife, and fortunately missed her. Krause then intrcuchud himself in a second-story back room, and dared anyone to come in. The officer walked upstairs and exchanged shots with him, after which a horrible struggle ensued. The clothes of tho policenmn were torn, and he was in such a forlorn condition before subdu- ing the man that, he was compelled to hand him over to a brother officer, who finally lodged lzim in the station-house. â€"r~â€"-.-â€"~o . - OLever, But Unsuccessful. Lord Salisbury accepted the task of trying to form a Government. and ti on urng the Queen to suggest to M r. Glad- stone that it might be well that he should reconsider his decision. To this Mr. (}lad.~tone replied that he knew of no alteration in the circumstances which could lead him to do so, but. that-the failure or refusal of Lord Salisbury to ' form a Government would create a case for recensiderution. On this Lord Sn lisbut'y accepted the task. Later on Sir Henry Pousouby asserted to Mr. Glad- stone that the late Government were on- willin:5 to come back to office. On this, Mr. Gladstone replied that he had al- ready said that the failure or refusal of Lord Salisbury to form a Government would create a new state of things, and one in which he would make every cf- fnrt to prevent the Queen from being without advisers. Thanks, therefore, to Mr. Gladstonc'u perception of the in- trigue that was being hatched, it failed, and Lord Salisbury had to take office; not because Mr. Gladstone declined to return to power, but because Lord Snlia bury declined to refuse to form a Min- istry, or, having accepted the task. to admit he had failedâ€"London Truth. “a... . Monkeys Wrecking Trains. Between a place called Niddivunrla and Ilerebully in India there is a large tnpc, which is well known to be infested with a host of monkeys. Having no other mode of occupying their dull hours, they are bent upon trying to de- stroy the Tumkur line. It would ap- pear that these animals, about fifty or sixty, form themselves into two batches; they range themselves systemically. one- half on one rail and the other half on the other. They begin by first remov. ing the earth from the sides of the rails. Then they arrive at the difficulty of nuts and bolts, which, though they exauiinc them very minutely. they can not get over. On the approach of the up or down train they wait till the en- gine is within a few yard-, when, with the utmost coolness, they simply jump on one side till the train has paused, and then resume their work. A re- markahlc instance occurred on one of them: Occasions. As the engine was approaching, the. monkeys made their, usual jumps. with the exception of one,- who persisted in remaining on the line, the engine by this time being very near. Five or six monkeys, seeing the danger one of their number was in, made a sudden rush and dragged him off, home: laying hold of him by the tail, others by the legs; anyhow, they saved him.
