For some time after the Scott Act was passed in this county there was a good deal of argument as to whether. when the time should come f-ir its GIIfOI‘CcIllCIlf, it could be culiorcml or not; its oppo- nents vehemently declaring, and quoting alleged facts to prove, that prnllibiiion, whether partial or total, had been :1 failure wherever tried. The facts so quoted were, however. in nine cases out of ten, either purely imaginary or great- ly distorted. as all reliable evidence that can be obtained indisputably shows that prohibition docs prohibit, and that its advocates have good reason to con- gratulute themselves upon the success that has so far crowned their efforts. On this question there are few better authorities than ex-Gov. St John. who was a candidate in the late Presidential election in the States, not becau-e he had any hope or chance of being elected, btit simply to test the strength of the teiiipernucc sentiment, which lie repre- sented. On Tuesday last he delivered an address in Lorne park, near Scan. borough, a few miles east of Toronto, and a synopsis of it was published next morning in the Toronto News. Mr. St. John spoke for an hour and it half, and his whole address was so replete with logic, facts and sentiment that. some- times his hearers were all laughing and at other times there was not a dry eye in the pavilion. The err-Governor is in favour of prohibition pure and simple, and thinks that. the whole system of regulating the traffic in liquor always has been and will be a gigantic swindle and is a disgrace to any government. Wherever he went he. saw the same beneficial effects resulting from prohi- bition, and whore local option had pro- nounced in its favour those effects soon became so marked that the people would fight the traflic by any means in their power. The Cherokee Indian nation bad the strictest prohibition law in the United States. For the first offence they imprisoned the culprit six months and fined him 850. and for the second handed him over to the mercy of the people, who might hang him if they chose, and usually did I Below we give one of the mauystrikiug passages in the cx-Goveriior's address 2 “I can travel 4.000 miles in Kansas,” said St. John, “and not pass a single saloon. And I can pass a saloon when Imeet one, too. Don’t think I can‘t get past a saloon." (Laughter) Con- tinuing, he said that the town he lived in had 3,000 of a population. Under the old dispensation there were four saloons, one city itmrslial. four police- men auti a road eniitiuissioucr. The saloons contributed a revenue of $2.000 yearly. They had blotted out the sal- oons, had not had one in eight years. Today they Could not get twenty-live men who considered themselves respect- able to vote for it return to the old sys- tetn. In the last year under the license system they had had {)2 drunkurtls iii- carccrated iii the calaboose. Under the new rule they had not. had :32 in eight years. Formerly they had sold their city debentures at front 60 to 80 cents on the dollar. Now they sold them at 100 cents on the dollar in gold. They had rcc.-ived 82,000 revenue from the liquor truffle. Fifteen hundred dollars of that amount. had been expended upon a court house to try drunknrds in, and for a caluboose to put them in. The latter was now a refuge. for linnieleâ€"s people. At. the present time. with dt‘itl- ble the population. they Illtd a city iiixirsltnll who did :ill the work. iiiclii- i fore probable that a dam will have to ‘ past, A white sparrow is certaiulv a bro“ Into 3 house mupied b."

The locks now completed, with the ex- ception of the gates, are splendid speci atoms of mason work, and will compare favourably with any of the saute size in the Dominion.

We have received a circular from Mr. F. S. Spence, secretary of the Ontario Branch of the Dominion Tmupei‘ano: Alliance, requesting us to give publicity to the fact that a emiw-ntirni of friends of the good cause is to be held in the Richmond St Methodist Church. Tn- ronto, on Monday and Tuesday. Soptciu her 14th and IDIII; and as those days will be during the week of the great In (lustrial Exhibition. persons who wish to attend the convention will be able to take advantage of the reduced rates of travel, and will also have an opportunity of visiting the exhibition. The present state of the temperance movement. in Canada demands serious consideration, and the call of the Alliance for a meetâ€" ing of all in sympathy with it is neces- sitated by the fact that the advocates of the liquor traffic, beaten so often at the polls. now seek to influence legislation so as to prevent the suceessf'ul Working of the Scott. Act, and will. it is believed, not only i'e-inii-odiice the beer and wine amendments at the next session of Par- liament, but, will rock by every menus in their power to defeat, at next nenerul election. as many as possible of the eighty-six members who voted against the atneiidiiient and for the Act in its entirety. The convention will meet. for organization in the lecture room of the above-named church on Monday, the 14th, at 2 p. m.. and sessions will be held on Monday evening and on Tues- day afternoon and evening The Ex- ecutive realize the gravity of the situa- tion. and, in announcing this call. emi- foss that. their responsibility was never more serious than at present, nor their power to realize their desire for prolii. bition greater. It is expected that the proceedings will be eminently practical, and the hope of the promoters of the convention is that the gathering will have an effect on the future policy of the country. A very large meeting is hoped for, and those in favour of the the temperance cause should make sac- I l are fourteen sticks of pine timber, tliir- brown fem],ch on its back and wings ty-su: feet long. one foot Square and I like those on the upper part of a snow- '.\Iary Adams. a widow, who lives on the road.

Co '5 business in Penelon Falls, bought a fifty-two inch bicycle in Toronto 3 short time ago, and hopes to be able, after a few week's practice, to ride to Peterborough and back on it. A number of inexperienced villagers had the machine out on Fran- cis street to see what. they could do with it. and it was great. fun to see how hard they found it to get. on and how easy to get off. One or two of them did manage to make the thing go, and the soleiunity of their countenniices as they slowly zigzaggcd along showed that they fully realizz-d the precariousncss of their exalted position.

Here is a translation from a Valen- ciau paper :â€"“ In the Province of Val- encia the place which has comparatively suffered most is Torres. situated about ten kilometres from Sagunto, containing lings‘ per Iiundredwcight, bringing down the market to figures at which it would not be reinunerative to continue busi-I mess. What effect this may have upon i husbandry and the great checse-nmking centrcsin England cannot be calculated. l but a great reduction in the value ofI dairy forms may be expected. It ran- not be said that superior quality in the products is a remedy for unprofitable cheeseâ€"making, for the overwhelming fall has occurred in the price of the very best “ Cheshire." Farmers are dismayed at the outlook for the very branch of husbandry which has been regarded as thcwmninstay of British ag- riculturists.

A New Houseâ€"In the little pine grove west of Mr. C. \V. Moore’s resi. deuce, his son-in-luw, Mr. II. N. Mc- Diiugall, is erecting a dwelling house which will be ready for use some time this fall. It is n cottage-roofed two- story building, 36 x 33 feet, with a kitchen 16 x 14 feet the same height, the whole on a substantial s'one foun- dation. The frame is of 2x5 inch scantling. and the walls are to be grout- ed to half their thickness, so as to leave a vacant space behind the inside plasâ€" tering. and the outside is to be veneered with white brick. The foundation was built by Mr. Broad, who will probably do the plastering. and the carpenter work is being done by Mr. W. C. Davis. The cast of the house will probably be about 31.500. A VALUABLE Possumâ€"Last Wed- nesday fot‘eiioon the wooden steps in front of the verandah at the Rectory were replaced by a. set presented to the Rev. Mr. Logan by Mr. Macdonnld, contractor on the canal, who had them Specially prepared for the purpose. The Steps are three in number, five feet long, one foot wide. with a rise of eight ineli- es. and they are all cut out of a solid block of limestone, which must have weighed nearly three tons before it was worked into its present shape. On the front of the top step the inscription “ T. V. Canal ” is neatly cut in bold letters, and below it. on the middle step, is the date, “1885.” The gift was presented simply as a token of friendship and esteem, but there is a peculiar fitness in it. as Mr. Logan has about 800 inhabitants. In the place itself there are neither doctors nor dis- pensary, but medical assistance and medicines were supplied from Algimia, where the cholera was also ragingâ€"very 500') the former also failed them, for of the two dictors one died of the disease, and the other, after losing his wife, was attacked by the terrible epidemic. As these towns and that of Alfara dc Al- gintia were thus deprived of medical aid, the Mayor went to Valencia to lay the State of the case before the Cover. nor and pray for help. On his return lte fell a victim to the scourge. 'l‘lic panic was increasing. The butcher and his family died, and the town remained without the supply of meat. But this wasn't all. The baker and his family suffered the same fate as the butcher, which made things still worse, as the families still in existence were very few of them in a state to make bread. There was still more to come. The gravedigger was struck down, and in a single. day there were eighteen dead bodies with nobody to bury them. The force of the Civil Guard. in barracks there, consisted of four men and a ser- geant ; the wives of three of the guards had died, and the remaining guards were all ill. When assistance arrived, which infused a. little animation into the people, the greater part of tlic houses were found shut up, either in consequence of the death or flight of the owners. Only about forty were in- habited, and these were all occupied by cholera-stricken patients." . North-West Notes. The Fort McLeod Gazette says 2â€"â€" Among the prisoners arrested at Pitt is one Charlebois, a I'Inlfbi'ccd, charged with killing a squnw in Big, Bear's camp. The woman was sickly and talked wildly, her mind being affected, and this led the Indians to look upon her as bewitclied and to desire her death. She used to tell them they would all be killed, as the white soldiers were tnore numerous than mosquitoes; and this talk, the Indians said, fright- ened them.
