Bat take The affairs of Reach will possess nsiderable interest next year, and | the helm of affairs will require to be steered with a steady hand as | well at the Township Council board 'a8 at tho County Courcil. The $11,000 swindle of the late County Treasurer, Wm Paxton, has got to 'be grappled with and that with a strong hand, and whatever is done the utmost care must be taken to "keep from the Council board each -and every one who obstructed the way and prevented an investigation on purpose that the guilty party might have t'me to abscond. = An- other matter which specially con- corns Reach is these $2,800 non- 'veeident debentures which. are charged against Reach, the payment «of which is demanded, the County | "Council is already clamoring for the | money and threatening to sue. Thi. | - celebrated $2,800 is another -ment of the muddle and fraud in the "Treasurer's office of the days gone by: and had the obstructionists allowed the vigorous prosecution of the in- -vestigation when the Treasurer could bave been secured, a large -amout if not all this £2,800 would have been placed upon proper shonl- «ders and Reach would not bave been held responsible for it, Bot as it is a clique who cared not what hecame of the County or Reach, if they could give their favorite time to clear, .stepped in and prevented the investigation tilt after the guilty party had made good his escape, thus causing the rate-payers of Reach to pay about $6,000 more othan they -ought to pay.

That the Grit cance is helplessly and hopelessly on the decline is now ing. artillery coming forward for mitted even by the most devoted {amongst them. No amount of fib- | bing can any longer conceal their retreat, and the most obdurate of [them are beginning to talk of terms jof surrender;. but the Opposition | will listen to nothing short of un- | conditional surrender. Nothing less | will satisty the opposition than the { surrender ot Brown and a few more | of such as prisoners of war to be held fin close confinement, forthe good { faith of the party. Poor Alderman | Tarner has just been offered in rac- {rifice tggatone for the political sins of | the party, and though he suffered | like a martyr the crimes of the par | ty are such that all the Aldermen in { creation could not fully atone for them. The Globe, poor soul, did his best to stave off the evil day and made orto of his "biggest pushes" to 5 the Alderman "down handsome- ly." Theorgan fairly hooted the idea of an Oppositionist carrying | West Toronto. One would have feagooecd from the ravings of the Grit sheets thut the Grit Candidate would get all the votes and that there would not be one left for the Opposition Candidate. However the intelligent electors of West Toronto had something to say in it; they were not to he misled further by the (Globe and its echoes, they did not wish to have the finger of scorn pointed at them as the aiders and and abetters of extravagance and corruption, so they rejected Turner, the . Government Candidate, and elected Robinson, the Opposition candidate by a majority of 343.-- { This signal defeat took the wind completely out of the Government {party. When the | known the Globe man might bave I been seen skulking up Church St. moaning like a harp unstrung and weeping like a child. If anything will teach the Government party-- we mean the combined faetion' of Ottawa and Toronto--a lesson "this signal defeat in West Toronto ought to doit. If asingle linein the Globe is to be relied on, the Government party, in Alderman Turner, had' a man in every respect well fitted by nature and education to represent that constituency, a gentleman in every way qualified for the position Very likely it may be all true that the Globe says of him. On the other hand the Globe most emphatically asserts that Mr. J. B. Robinson, the Opposition Candidate, is perfectly worthless as a representative, that be is utterly unfit for the position, that bis antecedents so far from being in bis favor as a candidate are all dead against him, and that he is simply a tale of the past. Admit. ting that ell that the Globe said re- garding -Mr. Robinson was true what a convincing proof does the election afford ot the utter detostation in which the Government party is held in West Toronto. Here is a Gov- ernment Candidate offered them, in the person of Ald. Turyer who is perfection itself; and here fs an Opposition candidate offered thém | who, if the Globe be true, is perfectly worthless, but so strong is the dis like to the corrupt, extravagant Gov. ernnment that the clectors of 'West Toronto wov't return a candidate 'von if be wero an angel, if 'he be a supporter of the Government, So the Alderman in all his perfection and adaptation and glory because he proposes to support the Government the électors will have nothing to do with bm ; but return Mr. Robinson (who if the Globe is true is good for nothing as a Fopreseuiflivey by a t such "is all humbug, for t a tool the returning the time being, may be willing he might be to "| mises to majority b hid Dro. ent, BE Cy : Distranthising the Jews.

No- thing under heaven but a perfect disgust of Grit rule and an abhor ance of the tricks 'and frauds of the united Ottawa and Toronto factions could have secured the return of the Opposition candidate at this time in West Toronto and neutralize the efforts of the cor- rupters. These are the men that bab. ble over their love of fair play while they ignore the first principles of it. The political rack and gibbet are their instruments of administrating Grit fair play ; their crimes will yet come home to roost ; they will Lave to drink the very dregs of the cup they are mingling ; drink them shall e-------- Facing the Music. The Legislative Assembly of Ontario fis summoned to meet for the dispatch of busi- ness on the 24th inst. The session will doubtlessbea lively one so long as it lasts. The Globe says " that at this moment there is not a crying (whatever that may mean) reform to be grappled with." He will find, how- ever that a good maay "crying reforms" and crying Reformers too, will be grappled with and that fully by the Opp A large number of the so-called ors oe of the present Government are algeady "crying" to be re-reformed. The Globe is begging the [ Opposition to have mercy on the Govern- ment and not to bear down too hard upon them, He has no objection that the Oppo. sition be allowed*to live, but then they must not be allowed to annoy the Government.-- The Opposition will most likely ask the Globe what measures they ought to oppose aud how they may oppose them; we shall see. A Matter of Veracity. Some three weeks ago in giving expression to the satisfaction felt by this community at receiving a visit from Dr. G. W. Jones, whom we bad not seen since he left the village some six years ago, it appears that our phraseology did not meet the approbation of Dr. Brathwaite. It appears now--though we did not know it before we committed the sacrilegious act-that the tenor of our remarks ran foul of Dr. Brathwaite, We stated that Dr Geo. had been telegraphed for as the condition of the health of his brother Dr. R Jones was in a precarious state, and that we were glad to learn that the latter's health was much improved since the arrival of his brother. On the following week Dr Brathwaite attacked us, doubtles with all the mildness of which he was capable under the circnmstances, charging us with writing with a spirit of malignity towards him, though we don't know why we should have any malignity towards a man whose very ex- istence neyer enters our mind. We dared on the following week fo tell the Dr. thatthere was not a word of trudi in his charges against us of malignity aod such rubbish, but this appears to have made matters worse, for the last week we had a'trio at us all try-- ing who could howl the loudert, Dr. Brath- waite, his patient, and the immortal " Neddy." We felt somewhat annoyed at first when the trio aitacked us; but we found since that they &re not 50 much to blame after all; partics suffering from ? | epizootic cannot expect to be luciousiy sweet, in their tempers. The Dr's nag died of epizootic that week and the disease is both contageous and infectious, and Neddy and his Plug are both laid up with it, so the effects of the dis ase on their otherwise naturally swéet tempers. We assert Low ever, that the whole pack of thes know that there is not a word of truth in the charge of Dr. 'Brathwaite, that we wrote our first notice from a spirit of malignity against him, and the trio had better restrain their righteous indigpation, and cwb their scribbling, propensities till they recover their Senses. ° Cheap Thunder.
