SIR,~â€"Just as I supposed, Mr. Anderson. instead of answering my challenges. in- dulges in general abuse, stating he will not attempt to'follow my “misrepresenta- tions and inaccuracies,” as he is pleased to call them, and no wonder, because he cannot contradict them. Everything I have written is strictly true. He said I tried to injure him with the department in this and another matter. I denied it and challenged him to give facts and cir- cumstances. Here was a plain issue about which there could be no dodging or quibblingr. Does he answer it '4 No. He says nothing, and I leave the public to judge therefrom the value of the rest of his statements where there is a dispute. Again. I challenged Mr. Anderson to produce the aifidavits or tell us how the papers came to publish that Mr. DuVernet represented to the judge that the_minie- TUE DOMINION house will adjourn before June first.

Hundreds of Bargains in Editoral Notes “Overwhelming Trade at” and I also objected that the application had not been properly opposed and that there was a suspicion of underhand work, and I leave the public to judge if I am not right. Is it not very funny the attorney-general's department refusing to let the Alliance have the copies of the efiidavits or give us the facts for publica- tion, and at the same time letting Mr. Anderson, for Mr. Parks, [:0 over the Alliance bills and giving him information If the temperance people of Mariposa are satisfied with the treatment they have received from the sttorney-general’s de- partment in this matter, I have nothing further to say, but I do not think any amount of whining by Mr. Anderson about his professional reputation will convince the public. I am neither worry- ing or whining. Everything I have written is over my own signature and I am prepared to prove they are true, not like the slanderous statements first pub lished, which nobody will own or attempt to justify. and I leave the public to judge where they come from; the judge that week. and in proof of the assertion I refer your readers to the Mail and Globe of that week, via, 4.11 A ril. Both papers publish a. full report dai y of all the cases which come before the court. and there is not a word of the Parks one in either of them.

PIGK GUT YOUR SUIT BEFORE THE WATCHMAN was”. THURSDAI MAY 19TH. Queen’s Mr. Richard Davey was royally entertained and presented with a handsome gold chain by a number at Grand Trunk railway employees at Taylor’s restaurant on Saturday evening.“ Mine host Taylor had provided a sumptuous repast, and after ample justice had been done the tempting viands, the evening was given up to short speeches, interlarded with comic songs by Messrs. Winhush and Harris. Mr. James Mainhood presided as chairman, and performed the duties of that office in a highly acceptable manner. In a neat speech he ex- plained the occasion from a railway point of view. and in making the , presentation of a handsome gold chain and charm, he assured the guest of the evening that it carried with it the good wishes of all his fellow employees for his future advancement in the company, as well as regret for his departure from their midst. Mr. Davey made a feeling reply, and briefly referred to his long career on the G.T.R., during which time he had never once been at variance with a single employee ......

In Orillia there is a splendid list of sports, consisting of a lacrosse match between the Tecumseth-Elms of Toronto and Orillia; a football match between Lindsay and Orillia, and also tennis matches and aoquatic sports. Onllia is a beautilul town, and no doubt many will take advantage of the cheap fares and take the trip. Return fare from Lindsay is 90c. As the wheeling around Orillia is very hood, no doubt many would want to take their wheels, and arrange- ments have been made to carry bicycles free. Excursionists will have hot water provided free at Couehiching Park and every attention paid to their comfort. â€"Thursday morning Mr. John Hartwick was crossing Kentost. opposite the post-office. A farmer’s wagon, in the end of which was a plow with handles protruding over the side, passed along at the same moment. John noticed the wagon and stopped, but didn’t perceive the plow handles, and the result was he received a severe blow on the face which stretched him on the hard pavement. His cries brought assistance, and when picked up it was found that his face was badly cut and bleeding profusely. The wounds were care- fully dressed, and now John would like to have a few minutes social converse with the driver of the wagon. [From the Hnduy 0mm.)
