Although the Anvocux is non-political we feel it our duty to condemn the course taken by our representative, Mr. Hector Cameron, inSthe matter above mentioned. The people of North Victoris did not send M r. Cameron to Ottaw- with the View of advocating the interests cf n telegraph monopoly, and it must certninly disgvst them to think that their member has been guilty of accepting a fee for his influence in its behalf. Evndently Mr‘ Cameron has but little core for the in- terests or dignity of his constituency when allowing himself to be so bribed, for we do not recognize much difference between n fee to a lawyer in parliament for his support and influence to a measure than n bribe to nny other member for the same, and it is deserving of the condemnation of every ri -ht thinkin man be he Grit or Tor . “ hen the in uence of our legislators can be so easily bought as was shown on Thursday, it prOVes 3 very deplorable and alarming state of things. Mr. Cameron evidently is not the only one to whom the wensation ’es, for even his nccnser. Mr. Thomas \ 'te, was retflinted on by the same charge. “'0 do not know whet the people of North Victoria may think of the matter, but we era of the . opinion that this constituency has been_degraded and sold by the action of its member'. Putnam the strangest steamboat trip ever recorded is that reported from Concor- dia, La. The steamer Minnie arrived at Natcheg the other day, having made the distance to that point from the Tensaa river --23 milesâ€"so to apealt. overland. The steamer left the tortuous channel of the river and followed the direct route of the wagon road, occaeionally, still further to reduce the distance. “cutting across lite." Some conce tion of the character of the de- luge on the ower Mississippi and its tribu- taries may be derived from the weird. ro- mantic and ,nnprecedented voyage of the steamboat Minnie. An authenticated fact like this will repair the shattered confidence in many of the other reports concerning the southern floods. Elm Wondviuc gdttmtc.
