That a large degree of the most abominable bribery was practiced at the late elections for, the Commons, has been put beyond the least shadow of a doubt ; and it is no credit to the country that it is so, but we have the facts to deal with and there is no way of getting over them; but in this particular the one party 1s at least as deep in the mud as the other is in the mire. possible 18 " Not Guilty," we believe no one will attempt to gainsay.-- The plaintiff so far has completely | rosult of the present struggle. time. Under tho circumstances should the fellow dare to present himself let the Messenger or Mr. Black-Rod, or anybody else lay hold on him cre he enters the chamber and deliver him into the hands of Messrs. Blake & McKenzie, receive the $5,000 reward offered for his apprehension and let them bring him to Toronto and dispose of him. 'We would not be surprised how- ever, if the biggest fight of the com- ing season be over the privilege of the Commons. This would be an interesting fight and would be close- ly watched by the whole people ; all partios of whatever shade of poli- tics, i. e. whether taking part with the "Ins," or the "Out's," would be equally interested in the result. On the whole we may look for in- teresting times. S-- The Three Great Interests. t The threo great interests of a na- tion--Agricultare, Manufactures and Commerce--are so intimately con. nected with and so thotoughly de- pendent one 6n another that their t relative importance can scarcely be estimated ; and as the car of enlight- ment advances these interests are pushed upward and onward in a cor- responding degree; and the nearer to perfection they rise the more de- pendent they become on each other, and tho difficulty of contrasting their separate values increases. The fact is they are really indispensable to each other and mo enlightened |. community can exist without them all. Hence we have our farms our factories, our railways and our steamers representatives of the three The Blake- great interests; and the prosperous McKenzie party ought to use the future of that city, town, or village word ¢ corruption" not louder than | possessing theso in sufficient oxtent a whisper, for when the Government | and quaMty is placed beyond all party are put to the blush for some | qoubt," To say that Port Perry pos- protly tall bribing, the Blake- McKenzie party so far trom railing against ethers, ought to lay t gigantic scheme is equally plain.-- ~ So he determined to give them a chance. When the general elections took place buying over was the or- der of the day ; Opposition hucksters * were in the shambles by the score, buying up everything purchasable - of the Government, men who had spent a lifetime fighting the battles of the country, had sacrificed their healthy, their comfort and shortened their lives in their country's service, who had been hounded, maligned and branded as corrupt by mercen- aries who knew better but who maintained the howl with a view to obtaining the coveted seats. Sir Hugh, we say, knew all this, he * "knew that those men, the leaders of the Government, though holding office about a quarter of a century, were yet poor men and had not the _means of defending themselves with similar weapons to . those used against them without stint or scru- 'ple by their enomies ; so loosing his strings he supplied tho need- counteracted the mischief wrought by Opposition dol- the rumpus.

The moving capital of the com- pany not including timber limits, standing timber or other real estate, cannot, be under $60,000. x In all this vast business, from the securing of the--limits, the cuttipg the trees and all through the various ramifications of cutting the logs, forwarding, manufacturing into lumber and its final sale and delivery with tho handling and disposing of the funds, Mr. Trounce is without doubt the grand moving spirit ; attention of tho other partners being largely taken up with other mat- ters.

E------ An Unmitigated Fraud. Some three weeks ago a magistrate court sitting in Prince Albert had a most dis- agrecable case before them, the investigation of which was carried to great length, but no part of which was either edifying or enter- taining ; and under the circumstances had no right to be published as several of our young men were charged with the perpetra~ tion of a serious crime and had no chance for 1 id as in a court no reiting evidence is allowed on a criminal charge, such evidence as go to sus- tain the complaint being all that is admiss- able, None know this better than magis- trates do and they would never give their winter evenings, at once pleasant and pro- fitable, in which the fathers, mothers, sons and daughters may join with mutual pleas- ure and advantage, There must be a rally- ing point and we know of none so good as our Mechanics' Institute. The Institute of by-gone days in this locality did capital Y | service and fulfilled its mission with credit to its members and profit to the community, while its means of doing good were very much less than our Tristitute now enjoys.-- 'We would say again tc the Directors, by all means get up a meeting at your earliest con- venience for the purpose of appointing a Lecture Committee and otherwise arranging for a thorough course of lectures by the most eminent lecturers to be had.

This description of saw works even better than those in which the teeth and plate are in one piece; for in meeting with unusual |; resistance such as large hard knots, the vibration of the former is scarce- ly sensible, while that of the latter is very perceptible and risky to the saw. There is little doubt but that work to-day to arrange for such a course, it wonld be at least a month or six weeks ere the courte could be arranged and they would require to look sharp to be ready in that time.

R is building a very hand to the publication of evidence taken before them on cases that are sent down, at Teast till after the case has been fairly tried before a court where both sides bave had an opportunity of being heard. * We, from a sense of right and fair play, and in justice to the young men, entirely suppressed the evidence in the following is- sue and gave our reasons for so doing. The grannies who botch the Standard, however, took a contrary course ; being only too anxi- ous to get another base thrust at the boys, they seize the villainoys and cowardly means thus présented of spreading before the world the Christian and surname of every youth whom they could at all mix up with the scandal in any way however remote, -- It was refreshing to sce the crones looking on with a superlative grin of hellish malig- nity as they drove their poisoned darts one after another into the very hearts of the young men who were notin a position to defend themselves. But even the trash they did give, dignifying it with the title of evidence, was like all their other efforts, a miserable garble. The part stolen from the magistrates' papers was correct but the rost was a mass of incorrect rubbish; and how could it be otherwise secing that it was "the | 1 product of any scribbler who pleased to scrawl or pick up scraps from the floor and band them in 'as genuine. We would say to the boys by all means present the whole pack of Standard scribblers with a leather medal cach as being the most malignant, uncompromising enemies of youth. The creatures attacked us last week in their usual elegant style simply because we refused to act traitor to the boys, and insult our readers with a lot of trashy evidence the truth _of which has yet to be tested. -- They had better suppress their impotent rage it serves them no good purpose, A Broken Plank. While we have not tho slightest sympathy with those who appear to think that municipal councils aro public property to be used or abused as it may suit the whims of every fault finder who comes along, nor do we consider that a council should be pestered with every ¢ Grumbler' who happens to find a hole in the sidewalk large enough to admit a ?Imouse. But there are instances when it becomes the duty of parties to call the of our cipal fathers to places which threat- len the safety of passengers and, as a sequence, the municipal exechequer. We have just such a spot opposite Mr. Dewart's Hotel. There is broken 'plank in the sidewalk mirably ad for breaking limbs ; it is justwide enough to admit of one's foot getting through and the hole has no bottom, a genuine bottomless pit.
