In Brochille the Reformers have achieved a. glorious triumph against great obstacles. The majority is small, but it is. extraordinary that there should have been a majority at all. Col. Buell has been elected by a. majority of 15. In South Grenville, Dr. Brouse has also achieved a. great victory. In North Norfolk, Mr.Wa.1sh,Cha.innan of the Intercolonial Railway Commission, " nhnoat to be considered a member of the Government, has been defeated by Mr. -Gladton by a. majority of 40. - Mr. Cook, the Reform Candidate for North Simcoe, has defeated; Mr. McCar- Djthyby afinajority of 68. ~ 5 51:: 'Nozth York Mr. Dodge has been -téhctedby a majority of 295.

The band played one of their favourite airs, Mr. Carpenter responded in behalf of Mr. Sutherland who was absent, and cheers having been given for Mr. Sutherland, the procession marched to Mr. G. M.

Ramada-mama. ‘ DRILLIA, 8th A UG.. 1872. "gamma. not 147 13 14 port on this point. All has not been done that might have been done, but at least something has been effected. In Dece.u- her last a. colportéur visited Parry Sound, taking different Townships by the ‘way, and walking-on‘foot most of the distance. During the month he disposed of 198 copies of the Scriptures. In February he sold or gave away 250 in our immediate neigh- bourhood. The Colporteur says‘that the people received him gladly, and thanked God for the thoughtful kindness of the promoters ofiBible circulation, in putting the volumc of truth within their reach.â€" With these facts before. us, extending only The third particular to which your Com- mittee would call the attention of this meet- ing, is the great and important fact that the circulation of the Holy Scriptures in Canada is steadily on the increase, and that the Bible cause is taking fast hold of the afi‘ections of the people. At the differ- ent Anniversaries held in the Provinces of Ontario and Quebec, progress is reported. More copies of the Word of God havebeen put in circulation during the past year than before, and the income of the differ- ent Bible Societies is greater. There is an increased desire to possess _a copy of the Word of truth, and’that word is read in families, that heretofore cared but little for it. This is very encouraging, but, while the glad tidings of progress in the distance reaches us in this remote district, we are glad to be able to report progress around us. Here, of allxparts in the Prov- ince of Ontario, there is a. field for Bible circulation, and we have something to re- There are three points to which your at- tention might be called, in this brief re- port. The first of these is that in celebra- ‘ting the sixty-eighth anniversary of the British and Foreign Bible Society, the an- nouncement was made that that Institu- tion has put. in circulation more than sixty- eight million copies of the Holy Scripures. The beginning of the Society was small.â€" The income for the first year was less than four thousand dollars, but like the strne cut out of the mountain without hands, it isdestincd to fill the whole earth. Much has been done, and' the volume of truth has been sent far and wide, but it is still only “ the day of small things,” when com- pared with the glory that shall follow.â€" “ There remaineth yet very much land to be possessed,” and the Parent Society is urging forward the blessed work with re- doubled efforts, from year to year.. The next particular is the astonishing fact that in Rome, the seat of the great Apostacy, a Bible Society has lately been formed, un- der the auspices of men of distinction and rank, and the British and Foreign Bible Society has made a grant of the paper to print anedition of the New Testament in that city. With the knowledge of the de- termined, and, until lately, successful op« position to an open Bible in Italy, who would have believed such a thing possible, only a short year: ago :1 To this we may ,1.__.__ "‘â€".1 VV VW say, as in Kumbefiess other instanceé, what wonders God hath wrgpght ! Lord, “Jfrom the least of them to the greatest of them,” but we believe that the one great instrument destined to hasten that great and glorious time will be the Bible. 7 7 A an- -wâ€" The statements given at the late Bible anniversaries, both at home and in Cana- da, show very plainly that, Whatever wars and tnmnlts may disturb the nations, “the Word of God is not bound.” In spite of all the opposition that has been made to its free circulation, its message of mercy and love is finding its way to every quar- ter of the globe ; so that. “ The people who sat in darkness now see great light; and to them which satin the region and shadow of death, light is sprung up.” We bless God for these good tidings, and we desire and pray that they may be only asthe first fruits of an abundant harvest.

Mr. Dallas has left it to those that come after him to carryout the work,which was so nuspiciously begun under his guidance. For many years in connection with this Branch, he encouraged and promoted Bible circulation, especially in the district around us. It remains for us to forward that work, and to follow him, as far as he fol- lowed Christ, that when. in our turn, we shall be called tq put off this mortal and “vn- v- â€"â€" __.__ on: and fostering care, it had gradually risen to importance, and has faithfully done its part, in contributing to the dis- semination of ‘ God’s word written ’ throughout this Province. As aman, Mr. Dallas, during a. residence of many years in this neighbourhood, was ever distingu- ished for strict, unbending integrity, and high, honorable principle. AsuChristian, he was not only consistent, but earnest and untiring in his efi'orts to promote the cause of the Redeemer. He was imbued with a truly Catholic spirit, and regarded all as brethren, who sincerely loved the Lord Jesus Christ, although he might clifi‘er from them on minor points. By his death, the cause of Bible circulation has lost a. warm and zealous advocate and supporter. As a Committee, we deem this a. fitting tribute to the memory of one, who so long presided over the affairs of this Branch, and who has now been called to his rest. ” “ 01-1 this, the first meeting of the Orillia.

In presenting the eighteenth Annual Report of the OriIlia Branch of the Bible Society, your Committee would commence by making allusion to the much lamented decease of the late President, J ames Dal- las, Esq. In reference to this event, your Committee, at their last meeting, put upon record the following tribute to his incinory: The Chairman called upon Mr; Alport to read the following The Chairman addressed the meeting, alluding to the death of our latePresident, for whose loss we felt sorrow, but not grief, eulogized his character and integrity, and his catholic spirit,and said that our Society, now holding its 18th.:mniversary, owed much of its prosperity to his constant interest, judicious advice, and fostering care. He glanced at the progress of the causethrough- out the world, which he described as high- ly encouraging, and often even startlingly so, and concluded by referring to our duty with regard to the new country to the north of us, describing the hardships and toils of the new settlers whose condition is far more desolate and dreary without the Bible, and insisted that the occasional call- ing of a colporteur is not enough, but that we require a. man to spend his time con: stantly in that district.

As well ‘ substitute darkness for light or slavery for freedom as'ofl‘er anything else instead of truth. Then he turned to the exponents of the truths of the gospel and remarked that these are the men whose labours oftin require sympathy and seldom receive it, we do not reflect that the easier :1. man de- livers his addresses and doctrine the more pains he must have spent in the prepara- tion. No nations have the family feelings fully develloped but those who possess the Bible. \Ve feel thankful for the Book which tells us of the welfare of our depart- ed friends. Men can do without the Shaster, the Coran, without any other book but the Bible. He described. thei state of affairs under the Roman emperors, ‘ and showed that when Jesus came the world was in need of him; and there is need of him yet. Lord Shaftesbury has stated in Parliament that not one in 200 workingmen ever darken a church door. Thank God we have a Queen who is glad to be President of a Bible Society. And there is hope in the thought that eight Peers of the Realm are in the habit of publicly preaching the gospel. He re- lated several interesting anecdotesâ€"one a description of Croft the ancient London merchant, of his finding a Bible among some goods and the shifts he resorted to and the danger he incurred by reading it. The present society issued 4,000,000,000, copies last year. Since the commence- ment 111,000,000,000 of copies have been ' issued directly and indirectlyâ€"every min- ute in the 24 hours 6 or 7 copies are pre- pared. These numbers and the benefits- that have accrued from this society are more than the mind can reach.

He described the simple faith of the He- brew captive maid and its effect upon the Syrian general. Then told the story of that other little maid, the Welsh girl whose love for the reading of the Bible, was the origin of this Society.

The drcuhtion in this district just mentioned is hot a. small matter taken 'by itself, but it shows what might be done, if properly followed up. There isno greater want in the new settler than the want of the Bible, and many, amidst the toilsand hardships which they havetoundergo, keenlyfeel thixmt.

In the autumn of 1870 the patients were removed from Orillis. to London, Ontario, thus leaving Dr. Ardsgh unemployed, and, at the same time, making no sdeputte compensation to him forgiving up his prac- tice to take chm-goof the Orillis Asylum. He felt this very keenly, and the more so that his repeated applications were sternly rejected, and he was thus left, in declining yesrs sud health, to resume the practice of his profession. As a. man, Dr. Ardsgh was slwsys genial and kind, and readyto mslresnysserifieetosssist those in distress. At one time he tcok a. lively interest in municipal sflhirs, 'snd contri- buted his full share torsrds promoting the sdvsneement of our villng, but lately he kept aloof from public questions. Hewill _~be much missedsmong us, and his memory will be long cherished by many, who hue been benefited by his kindneu, and hyhisoften unremitted medical attendance; The funeral which took place on Wed- nesdsy was very lsrge and respect-blue, being sttended by the masonic body, of which he was sn honoured member, and friends of sll classes. During the time of the funeral all the stores were closed in respect to the deceased. to relieve sufl'ering, and to do what he could to save life. He thought he had done his part, and was willing to leave to those younger than himself to continue the work. He conducted the main of the Asylum with great judgement md unre- mitting attention, and although the cases committed to hiscarc were, for the most part, incurable. he incceeded in alleviat- success. As a. medical practitioner he was always kind and gentle. His presence in a sick room 9!. a confidence to the sufferer, from the opinion that he was both skilful, and would spare no labour or pains togive relief. In 1861 Dr. Ardagh was selected by the government of the day to take charge of the Lunatic Asylum then establish- ed in Orillia; when he was required to give up his very extensiie connection as a medical man. To :his he agreed, being anxious to be relieved from the incessant fatigue and hardships ofa country prac- tice, driving over almost impassable roads It is with feelings of deep regret that we have to announce the death of Dr. John ‘ Ardagh, so long a resident of our village. He had been quite unwell for some time, but his symptoms did not giro cause of alarm till Friday last. On Monday even- ing he began to sink rapidly, and expired at 4 o ’clock A. M. the following morning. His constitution, ne\er strong, at last gave way under the prolonged attack of the complaint from which he was 'snfi'ering. Dr. Aniagh graduated at Trinity College, Dublin, took his degrees at the Edin- burgh University, and has always stood high in his profession. In 1843 he emigrated to Canada, and settled in Orillia. ‘ The country around our village was then very different to what it is nowâ€"rough and thinly settled, the new comers poor, and in many mes quite un- suitable for a life in the forest. It was with such as these that the subject of this obituary had to deal, when he first mine to Canada. For some years he was ,the medical attendant of the Indians at Rama, where they had been.plaeed after being re- moved from our village, and by the man- ner in which he attended to his duties, under the direction of the Government of the day, he showed his truly philanthropic spirit. It may be remembered that crowds flocked to Dr. Anlagh from all quarters, during the prevalence of diptheria in this . district, which he treated with such signal { ed in Agents. By‘the present provisional plan, nine ministers of various denomina- tions undertake to give to thesociety as ‘much time as they csn, which is counted stthersteof five days for s week and twenty and a. fraction for s month. By this mesns the interest is bettersustsined sud less money spent. In reply to the objection tbst we are sending money out of the country, he said thst this is a. rich and magnificent country sud ii there were no money in it we could send none out. We send sway wheat, wool, timber and salt without scruple; sud the more we on- 3 desrour to spread his Word, the more God will bless us. Mr. Alport seconded the resolution. Collection was taken up.

THE WEEKLY Pumpâ€"A weekly family paper has great advantages for advertisers over a daily. It is generally on the table ready to be perused by one and another for a week, and often several weeks at a. time. Eacheopy is also mad by a greater nu Huber of persons, often be- ing loaned from family to family. Besides, the number of advertise- ments being limited, and generally of an interesting character, the chan- ces of each one being read are much greater than in a. daily. A week- ly also ranches all clam in all sec- tions, who am scamelybe mched in any other way,as they do not take any otherpapers. These facts willbe evident to any one who reflects upon the subject. A word to the wise is sufficient. A FEW weeks :00 we noticed as something new $115 worthy of men- tion, that at a neigh ' town they had looking ghafrat trapsthat were genera] rat exterminate. ’ We were spoken to by one of our deal- ers a few days after, while passing the store, and shown one of these same style of traps, of which enum- ‘aer has been around the stone for months.
