The Formal nominations of candidates . in the coming bye-election in North Vic- toria were held yesterday in Dickso 1's ball, Fcnclon Falls, Mr. John D. Niy lnr. returning-offic'r, presiding. The no-nin- atiou paper and deprsit for Mr. Btrron were handed in by Mr. Dickson, and for Mr. Hughes by Mr. Joseph {dc-\r- thur.. A few minutes would have been enough; but. as the law gives two hours. it was 2 o'clock before the speaking counneuccd. As a rule the candidates are the only speakers at nominations, but Mr. Hughes was accompanied by the Hon. McKenzie Bowcll, Mr. Clark Wallace and Mr. E. Cocbrane of' East Northumbcrlaud, known to fame as a peddier of' petty uovermnent offices, all of whom addressed the audience, as well as Sam himself. Mr. Barron and Mr. McLaughlin were the only speakers 0n the Reform side; but. they effectually spiked the Tory great guns, and it was guite evident that the feeling of the meetingr was almost. entirely in favor of‘ Mr. Barron, of whose election on Thurs- day next by a large majority we haven’t the shadow of' a doubt. W A Convincing Address. One of' the very largest audiences we ever saw in Fcuelon Falls assembled last Saturday in Dickson’s ball to hear Sir Richard Cartwright, whose address, which occupied about; two hours in its delivery, sent many of' the Conservative Farmers away in a very thoughtful mood. Those who had been taught, by parties who never heard Sir Richard in their lives, to expect. a speech full of' bitter- ness and invcctive, were agreeably sur- prised to find that they had been grossly misinformed; for the address was calmly argumentative from beginning to end, and could not, we think, fail to convince the many farmers present that freer trade relations with the United States, and that only, could free them from the burden of debt, difficulty and dis- couragmcut which now oppresscs them. The rational Conservatives were, we repeat, evidently deeply impressed by Sir Richard’s utterances; but the dyed- in-tbc-wool Tories, being unable to pick holes in the speech, commenced, im- mediately after the meetimr, to disparage to the article on our first page from the Napancc Express. m The Exodus. A few days ago the Empire so far forgot itself as to publish an interview with a Mr. Lyon, who is now visiting Toronto, of which city he was a resident until he left to go to the States. Speak- ing of‘ Buffalo, Mr. Lyon said that out of the pupulation of'about 230,000 be- tween 60,000 and 70,000, or nearly one fourth, were Canadians, and no doubt in many another city there is as large a proportionate number. But, in spite ot‘ the fact than native born Canadians and English, Irish and Scotch immi. grants, who would rather live under the “old flag" than under the stars and stripes, are leaving Canada for the States in crowds because they cannot! I' ' ‘ 1 X . (\iY ‘ c ‘\ I ' the speaker, mm them we b“ to Hull When at the beck of his party he votes evidence against their own politiCal doc~ trines, and an amusing (as well as inâ€" structive) instance of it was told to us three or four days ago. One of' our villagers, while talking with an acquaim ltaucc a "red hot" Toryâ€"front l’ort ‘ llope, asked whether he could find him l . . , a purchaser for a large farm somewhere l out north, which he offered very cheap. f ‘- Not 'tonnd our put-ts,” said the Port l lIoper. “ There's nob uly left but white l brads, women and children ;for as soon l as (Its yozuzqfi‘lloirs btyill (4) gr!

This is a little surn in the I rule of" three for Inspector llughcs to - paste on the wall of every school-room in 'l‘oronto.” Yes, and it is a little sum that the Inspector's brother Sa-n should be asked to do at every tiiccti:i:_r he holds in N n'th Victoria. A Partner to Farmers’ Wives. Mr. Allen l’ringlc, of' Richmond, pub- lished in the Napancc Empress of' the 29th ult. an address to the Farmers of' Lennox which has been rc-produccd in the Globe ‘and ought to be scattered broadcast. throughout every constituzmcy in which an election is now pending. I Mr. Pringlc avers that he is not the paid advocate or subsidised orator of' any ‘ party, and would like to meet the man, be he Grit or Tory, who will venture. to tell him to his titcc lltdt he ever reâ€" Ccivcd a cent or n cout's worth for the voluntary service he. is rendering. lie is simply a farmer speaking to farmers, and seeking ‘no oflicc or em-xlumcut “save the increased proceeds of labor that would come to all under a did‘ercnt policy of government." llis whole ad- dress is in r too long for us to nll'ord room for; but the pith of'it is comaincd in the following extract, which appeals more particularly to t'arnnrs’ wiv..-s: â€"- “ Did the l'arnrrs gear ally but know wrung out. of' them by to tariffs. the monopolies not the. combines, they would surely rcvoit, else they are f'ool“. They know they are hard up, ytt many of' them hardly know why. They know their lands, and even their chattels, are mortgaged, but fail to trace the causes. Acctirding to the official returns the chattel mortgages are multiplying on the farms of‘ Ontario at a rate of over a thousand a year. sale along with these there are at least 20.000 farmers in this province groaning,r under this incubus. which would be an average of about 500 in every county, to say nothing of the mortgages on their lands. The chattel mortgage is the last resource. When the farmer can get. no more money on his land he has to mort- gage his chattels, probably to pay the interest on the other mortgage, hoping against hope for better times and better prices for his products. He works hard enough, and raises enough, to pay the interest and live; and to finally pay off the mortgage, were he not robbed of' so much of' his earnings by tariffs, monop- lics, combines, and other rascally means of fleecing him. And how long, is he going to submit to all this, and be a voluntary beast of burden? How much longer is he going to follow party, and vote the bread and butter out of the l mouths of his children and give a polâ€" ' itical legacy of' drudgery to his wife as Well as to them? The farmer's wives ought indeed to take hold of this matter. for they suffer tnorc from the husband's insane folly than he does. And it' his head is too thick to grasp the situation, let. the wife give him a “ pointer." the money they have both earned, and the money she ought to get for the neces- saries of' life in her family, into the pockets of' monopolists and hoodlcrs, it is time the wife protested. The man who does that is every whit as bad as the man who takes the food from his wife and his children and drinks it up in intoxicating liquors. Both ought to be brought up with a Very short. turn. [f' the women themselves cannot. vote in this election, they can at least give their husbands and sons some wholesome. comnmn~scnse advice. When the “guid wif‘c ” hears her sapicnt spouse declare that the N. P. and the duties do them no harm, she can go to her sugar bowl to contradict him and confound his partizau nonseusn; for since the con- founded duty was taken of? the raw sugar he now briurs her some 8 to 10 lbs. more for his dollar than he did before. And is) it Would be under Free just. how much at tlwir earnings is Counting the bills of l l l l l l l l I l l l at, :fDundas & Flavelle Brothers, Dealers in Dry Goods, Clothing, Mtlhnwy, She would be able to hire some ot‘ the toilsome drudgery done instcal ot‘ wearing herself out prematurely by a ceaseless round of toil, night and our. in caring for a house full of children, with few facilities for the task. Let. the voice of the farmer's wills and daughters be heard in this important matter. It is their right to be heardâ€" il'unt at. the polls. at least at. th: lirc~ side before the hu bind goes to vote." M A Woff in Sheep’s Clothing. 'l.rly last. Week a nnutherol' small bids were diszributcd around the citing. announcing, that the ii-v. C. l‘; t‘.-.~.-'y, " the eminent. .‘l -tho llal dni in not Deputy Grand Certpzain lor t‘wsmdt." would i|ll~ll'\f$) audience’s on the suhi rt ol' " Canada for the Canadians" at dili- t'ercot places in North Victoria. cum mcuciu; with Feat-loo Falls on Maud t\' evening.

On Sunday be preached whit is said to have been a very good serm m in the. Salvation Army barracks, and would have been al'owcd the use of the same building on Monday but for a suspicion amounting almost to certainty that his address was to be on politics. Falling tn gtt the barracks, his backers rented lugrum’s hall; and, although the trip- tain of' the Salvation Army had been assured that Mr. Perry’s address was not to be political, and he said the same thing at its opening, he had been speakâ€" ing but a very few minutes when " anâ€" rcstrictcd reciprocity” and “annexaâ€" tion ” popped out of' his month. There was a large audience, a great many of’ the fair sex going to hear him because he was a " reverend," but his oration amounted to very little more than a string of anecdotes and culogiums on. Canada, the asscvcration of'himself' and his coadjutors that his address was nor. to be political having probably prevent- ed him from making it as much so as he intended. We must not. forget. to add that Mr. James J. Power ofliciatcd as chairman. W .. Village Council Proceeding. . Feuelon Falls, February lst, 1802.
