Death of Sir David Macpherson. The steamer Labrador, which arrived at Quebec on Friday last, had on board the body of Sir David Lewis Macpher- sou, K. C. .\l. G, P. 0.. who died on the previous Sunday afternoon. Sir David was born in Scotland in 1818. and when 17 years old came to Canada, where he became a. member of the firm of Gzowski (S: (10., railway con- tractors. and rapidly amassed a large fortune. In 1864 he was elected for the Saugeen district, Lower Canada, I and soon attained a prominent position in politics, which he held until a few years ago. when declining health obliged him to take up his residence in North- ern Italy and the German health re- sorts. In 1844 he was married to Miss Janet Sarah Molson of Montreal, who died at San licmo in 1994. In 1883 he resigned the Speakership of the Sun- ate and was appointed Minister of the Interior, and a year later was knighted for distinguished public services. Sir David left two sons and five daughters, one of the latter being wile of Hon. George A. Kirkpatrick, Lient ~Governor of Ontario. Another daughter, Mrs. Books, a widow who resides in London, England, accompanied him on his last voyage. which was taken. it is said, in opposition to the advice of his phy- sicians. Just Like Tuppor. In the heat and fervor of one of his speeches d tiring the recent election ctim- pnign Sir Charles Tupper expressed his willingness to die for remedial legisla- tion; but of course everybody who was aware what kind of a Tupper he was knew perfectly well that he was only in fun. The election resulted invthe Gov- erumcnt and its policy getting an indef- inite hoist, and Sir Charles, instead of going away and dying, as he was in decency bound to do, songht and ob- tained rc-election, and, during the de- bate on the speech from the throne, got up and said: “ In the light of what has occurred, I am in a position to frankly admit that I greatly overrated the im- portance of this question of remedial legislation.” That’s just like Tupper, in whom (as a politician) there is neither truth, consistency nor honesty. All he cared for remedial legislation was as a means to an end, and the moment he finds that it is of no further use to him he also discovers that he has “ greatly Overrated its importance." The Star says: “ How can any of his followers believe in his good faith or his judgment if he wears his principles simply as a cloak to be put on or taken off to suit the temperature of the mo- ment?” But the Star’s question is founded on a delusionâ€"Sir Charles hasn’t got any principles. ’Rah for Our Side l On Tuesday last Hon. William Pat- terson, Controller of Customs, was elect- ed in North Grey (in place of the deceased member, Mr. John Clark) by a majority of 400; and Hon. Mr. Blair, Minister of Railways, was elected in Queen’s-Sunbury, New Brunswick, by a majority of over 600. The Tories fought hard for victory, as they always do; but~it is admittedly difiicult to defeat a member of a Government, and almost impossible when the Govern ment is brand new and exceedingly popular, like Mr. Lauricr's, and the majorities were much greater than were obtained at the last elections. The Conservatives had about thirty M. Rs amongst their list of speakers, Mr. Foster taking a prominentpart in the contest in Queen’s- Sunbury and Mr. Clarke Wallace in North Grey. We Second the Motion. The lamented death of Mr. W. D. Balfour has left vacant the office of Provincial Secretary. and the suggestion that it should be filled by Mr. J. R. ' Stratton of Pctcrborough has been made by the Toronto Star, which says: “ Mr. Stratton is young and vigorous, ‘ aggressive and able. lie has not only built up a successful business, but. is" , stituency. The newspaper men of this ‘ province weuld be glad to see him given charge of on Ontario portfolio, and 3 could confidently count upon him as not . being too much of a pnrtizm to admin- ister faithfully the general affairs of I which he might have charge, but also the peculiar interests which are a part 30f that sparsely settled but promising district of which Petcrborough reason- l ably claims to be the centre.” The Star's eulogium of Mr. Stratum l lpolitically quite invincible in his con- . will be endorsed by all who know him, 2 and if, as is alleged, he is a candidate .\looxmum‘ Fxcnastox â€"â€" There is: second tit-.- motion to confer it upon him.

MILL’ ACCIDENTS.â€"Last Friday night Mr. Judson Boadway met with a pain- ful and serious accident while working at the “jointer " in llowry &Sons’ mill: A refuse shingle that he was throwing down what. is called the “ snipe hole " caught on the teeth of the saw and jerked his hand against it, with the re- sult that all four fingers were more or less mangled, the first being out nearly through below the first joint. Dr. Wilson dressed and bandaged the hand}, and on Wednesday the patient went to his home at Norland, to which village his father. Mr. Wm. Boadway, moved from the Falls about five years ago... On Wednesday last an employee in llowry 8:. Sons' mill, lmmml Graham, who recently came from Uxbridgc, had the third finger of his left hand broken and the second badly crushed while loading lumber in the mill. llr.Wilson attended to his injuries, which will lay him up for a few days. 0.9‘ F 911’s Station.

The prospects are very poor for a good crop of potatoes in this locality, as they are small and few in a hill, and no doubt the price will be higher than last year.
