5 i i: lhe bx certify that no motion or resolu- tie a or printed or verbal, against the ..‘ ct of the line. H. C. Wallace, or for or against any One else, was placed in my hands or passed at the meeting held at Fcnelon Falls on the 8th of June. lane : and the small sheet in circulation, without date or signature, Containing a resolution said to have been passed at said meeting condemning the Hon. N. C. Wallace, is not true. J. D. Navtoa, Chairman. b'enelou Falls, June 10th lBSG. The above circular (which has ap- peared in the Mail and Empire with the statement that the audience num- bered three thousand) is only an ad- dition to the long list of proofs that Sam Hughes is utterly lost to all sense of truthfulness and honor, and, like Tupper, will adopt any means, no mat- ter how disgraceful, to gain his end. The resolution was read by the mover, who, at a and from Sam, mounted a bench after lully one-half of the audi once had left the rink, which was com- paratively empty by the time he had finished. The resolution was'composed and written with a type-writer (prob- ably at Lindsay) before the meeting' was held, and the “ overwhelming ma- jority ” almost entirely of the band of shouters who remained for the purpose. in an interview with an Ottawa correspondent of the Mail and Empire Sam Hughes said that after the Orange meeting at Uollingwood Clarke Wallace and his few oonlederetes sneaked oi? alone to the station, wuile scores cheered Robert Birmingham and Sam and their friends and escorted them to the train ; but the editor of the Port Hope Guide, who happened to be at the station at the time, says that tho major's statement was false, and adds: “ If we were called upoii to name the three greatest liars in Canada, we would say that Bro Sam was one and Sir Charles Tupper the other two.” Many will think that the U tide is right; other:P that Sam and not Topper ought to be given the majority. Election Meeting at Bobcaygeon. A meeting was held in the towu hall, Bobcaygcou, on Wednesday evening, the 3rd inst., in the interest of Mr. George Mellngh, the Relorm candidate. The meeting was addressed by Messrsdohn Junkiu, T. Stewart, Hon. John Dryden and the candidate. Mr. John Wilson occupied the chair. On the platlorm, besides those mentioned, were Mr. Jas. Junkin and Mr. D. R. Anderson, secre- tory of the South Victoria Reform As- sociation. The utmost enthusiasm pre- vailed. The Hon. John Dryden, who Was the speaker of the evening, delivered a powerful and convincing address of an hour and thrcequarters in a calm and dispassionatc manner, arraiguing the Govornmeut on the school question, extravagance and corruption, as well as their fiscal policy, and was warmly applauded. Mr. Stewart closed the meeting with an appeal to the electors to heartin support. Mr. McHugh, and to sec that he be triumphantly returned on the 23rd of June. A feature of the evening was the presence of M r. Charles Fnii‘bairn, the late member, who was invited by the chairman to a seat on the platform, which he declined, and, after listening to the Hon. Mr. Dryden’s scoring or rather scorching of the Gov- ernment, he left without oficring one word in their defence. The general verdict of the meeting wasâ€"“ nothing to say.” It was conceded by all that. it was the most encouraging meeting ever held in Bobcayecon in the cause ol reform. “ Coming events cast their shadows before."

Mr. Charles Bowin of Cobocouk found the skeleton of an adult in a potato field in his woods. The bones are believed to be those of an old man who disappeared about 18 years ago, but it. is not thought that he was mur- dered. We did not hear of the find until too late to obtain particulars. A GREAT Convenienceâ€"It will be soen by an advertisement in another column that the little steamer Grey- hound will, until further notice, run two trips daily between Fonelon Falls and Lindsay, calling at Sturgeon Point as she comes and goes. As it will be a great convenience to our villagers, and the fare is exceedingly low, it is to be hoped that she will receive sufficient patronage to keep her on the route until the close of navigation. PLATE GLASSâ€"By Monday's train two sheets of plate glass. 88 x 100 inches and 3-8 of an inch thick, arrived from Toronto for the front of Mr. Heard’s new store, and two handsomely figured plates, 18 x 88 inches to fill in spaces above the colored ones. There are also ten panes of various sizesâ€"some plate glass and some double diamondâ€"for the side lights doors and transom. The whole cost not much less that 8200, and when they are in place Mr Heard will have by far the handsomest' front in town. 3%“ Trimmed flats at Mrs. R.
