Globe and its echoes like the eared quadrupeds which bunt acks are keoping up cach othors by bowling in concert over ther ure pleased to atyle the ations of the N.P. The Globe iis at Nova Scotia and proceeds ward untill he lands in Britirh bia and then goes back and anew in his Jtenerant wail country's ruin by the awful XN. P. The roll which the prophets saw ages ago which witain and w thout was mourning and woe was u cheerful picture compared to the awful havoc threatened by the N, P. As the Globlur angel sweeps along _ he is generon) to every place alike all got a thorough coating from his Blakening brush. In taking in (he town of Peterborough in his last sweep be does that town in the following sty le, "Peterborough shopkeepers complain that they do not pay expenses from day to day. barring Saturday." This was 100 much even for the Examiner who in his issue of Jast week takes the Globe to task in the following style: "We do uot know what the Globe's au- thority was for the publication of such a statement, which is calculated to bave a prejudicial effect upon the interests of the town and the credit of the merchants, It is certainly not taken from any of the Peter- barongh papers, nor would any person be warranted in making such a statement by ny facts that exist. The Globe shonld either give us the authority on which the paragraph appeared, or retract the libel on the town which it conveys." We commend the pluck of (he Eraminer in standing up for the «credit of bis town, and in promptly rebuking a buse if not a malidus "libel". Bat the Examiner should remember that what is good to give ought not to Le bard to take and while the Examiner regularly and devotedly follows in the wake of the Globe promulgating no less libelous reports mot against an isolated and insignificant town but against the extire Dominion he ought to con- sider that there are others who feel no less annoyed than himself when untruthful statements or it may be malicious libels are promul- gated to the injury of this or that Jocality, In fact, the defamers should feel ashamed of themselves and in the interest of truth if not of patriotism endeavor in future to represent tLe affuirs of our country as they really are and not as seen through the jaundiced eyes of jealosy or partizan spite. We believe that even the Examiner is beginning to see Lhe error of his ways, the follow- ing is his first manifestation of con- trition and his determination to re- prosent with reasonable fairness the actual state of affuirs. The following is taken frow the Examiner of last woek. "Oprexine ve Acain.-- Weare glad tolearn that the Hilliard woolen mill, which has been idle for w-veral years, is again to be e-opened. Messrs. Gemmill & McKee have feasd the mill and will shortly commence operations in folling and carding in all their brauches. They will confine themselves to the custom trade, and we trust will doa prosperous business." Listen to the rechntion of another of the late howlers : "Berlin ix going ahead rapidly under the N.P. The News notes the establishment of a paper-hox annfactory by Messrs A. & C. Boehmer, which will be in operation in a few days. The button factories in that town alone use 2,200 boxes a day, and firms in the neighboring places will take a great many more. The News predicts that Rorlin will shortly rank as one of the lead- ing manufacturing ceutres of the Dominion." The Listowel Banner, another of the devoted followers of the weeping prophets of storm and darkness, gave out in his isste of a couple of woeks ayo that some fifiteen em- ~ ployees from a neighboring factory had eft the country owing to reduc- tion of wages. The other pro- mulgators filed in and the terrible P. got all the blame. But un- any for the promulgators Mr "Tess, the ietor of the factory red to, kicked the" bottom out their splendid theory.

Dominion Parliament. The proceedings of the Dominion Parlia- ment are not uninteresting. Much of the speaking is quite interesting, and if opposi- tion orators be unreasonable by times it is even better than sluggish indiff rence and their persistant attacksafford theGovernment party opportunities of explanations which would not otherwise be furnished. The leaders of the Opposition, Messrs. Mackenzie and Blake, got badly scorched the other day when carping over the appointments. The land arrangements in onr new territory gave Mr. McK.nziean opportuaity for airing his scolding propensities and exhibiting how waspish he is capable of showing himself ; bat when the vote was taken on a motion opposed to the scheme only 40 out of a House of 160 thought as Mr Mackenzie did. « Found at Last. A neat, cheap, durable, anti-snow-drift fence bas long Leen a disideratum in this proviuce and several laudible attempts have been made to secure auch a fence with more or less success ; but none met the case fully until Mr. John Vance, in 1877, bit upon the happy idea of his now patented combination fence wood and wire which meets the regnire- ments exactly. This fence is rapidly coming into use and is highly recommended by, all who have tried it. All should see it.

C. Paxton is proprictor and publisher and we wish the enterprise every success. The inhabitants of this young and vigorous town will find it much to their interest and advantage to give the enterprise that countenance and support to which it is so justly entitled and which will enable it at once to enter upon its im- portant mission in that mew and highly favored section of country over which gener- ous mother nature has cast her gifts with liberal hand. Success to the young Tribune, Opening Spring. With the opening spring our Bcugog has Inid aside its icy mantle our streets are being trimmed up and our host of active, enterpris- ing merchants are hurrying in their seagon- able stocks marc stylish, better and cheaper than ever ; so that purchasers have almost unlimited stocks to sclect from, of the very best and most fashionable goods anywhere to be found and at prices which make it an object for parties to come long distances to purchase. The large and still increasing sales enable our merchants to buy to ad- vantage, have their stocks often renewed and quick returns enable them to sell at small profits. We recommend an inspection of onr merchants' sto ks which for everything to be desired by the purchaser cannot be excelled. A tour round the several establishments will prove satisfactory. Our merchants consider it no trouble to show their goods. Such goods recommend themselves, An Important § Shipping Port.

The Club spared n-ithe: labor nor expense in placing before the publiGa eatertaiument in keeping with the ingelligence of the Club and worthy of an ative aadience. The attendance was could be desired. The overture by the Orchestra was really charming and satisfi d all present as to the' choice selection of performers. They were not numorons it is true, some six in all but what they lacked in numbers was more than compensated for by the superior proficiency of the several performers as all could handle their instroments to perfection, and more enjoyable music conld not be desired than that furnished on this occasion. Prof. Windsor took the Coronet ; Mr. Me. Guire, the Clarionet ; Mr. Adams the Flute; Alr. Hunter, the B "Viol ; Mr. Elford, the violin ; Miss Robbins, the Piuno. Tne splendid manner in which the over. ture was given put theaudience on the right key and prepared them for a highly enjoy able time. Mr. Lennox's "Jemima Brown" was sung in capital taste, The audience proved their satisfaction. Mr. Paterson's reading was decidedly good, easy, natural, and distinct. Miss Tullett sang "Water Cresses" to perfection. She has a magnificent voice and possegses the other necessary reqnisit-d for a a first class singer, such in fact, as are but rarely found in oné so young. « Mr. McGuire's Clarionet solo was well rendered. Miss Cleghorn's rendering of Letter" was, charming. Mr. McGlashan sang " My. Mother-in- Law's Jaw" with capital effect, and consider- ing the fact that he has not yet had the honor of having # mother-in-law and con- sequently had no practical knowledge of the subject he sings it with case and comfort most pleasing indeed but ---- it was easy for him to do it. Mr J. A. Wightman read «Chrirch Roads" "Kauty's with much acceptance; he reads well ah that is saying a good deal, good readers are rare, Miss Bongard's "Esmeralda" showed fine vocal powers and a cultivated taste; it was grand, After another selection by the Orchestra, the Company gave a fine chorous "Glory and Love", It was well done. Messrs N. F. Paterson, C. C. McGlashan, 8. E. Lennox, G. Currie, C. Paxton, R. Holmes, -- Thompson, and G Wiliams all took part. Mise Helen Cleghorn gave a choice recita- tion ; the young lady has a fine taste and good abilities as a reciter. Miss Bustin now gave a fine song, she ix quite an artiste and has the foll advantage of superior natural abilities and thorough | cultivation, Mr. J. A. Wightman recited ¢ ' Etiquette" with pleasing effect, he is at home in that line nnd the andience proved that they thought so. Another fine selection fiom the Orchestra brought to a close the second part of the en- tertainment and all present felt highly satisfied with all that bad been gone throngh. The rousing applause and persistent encores which greeted many of the performers were the best of all proots of the high apprecia- tion of an intelligent andience. The un-| stinted marks of approbation were well | merit d. | Now scomez the « Farce" Diamond Cut | Dimond". The cast of characters was | Jjudicions and appropriate, the several char- acters were well sustained, each one being well up in his part so there was not a weak one in the company. The excellent acting and entire absence from rant were highly acceptable to all and is creditable in a high degree to the intelligence and good taste of the young men who rendered this really enjoyable farce in so ratisfactory a manner as to please all without offending any, and we do not tear contradiction in asserting that the acting on this occasion" would com pare very favorably with many experienced companies who strut the boards of our city theatres. Mr. Souch's "Heartley" was com- plete; Mr. Moorcraft's "Capt. Howard" wasin ood taste and just as is intended; Mr. Paterson's "Capt. Seymour" was really good ; to play Sevmonr as he should be required a little more dash than Howard and Mr. Paterson gave it. It was good. "Trap" and "I'rick" are two important characters in the farce each plays an important part and re- quires considerable tact and both were well sustained, the former by Mr. Lennox and the latter by Mr. McGlashan ; they played their part with much acceptance and just as they ought. Mr. Thompson's. « Clay" was good. Mr. Campbell's "Charlotte Doubtful" wax a perfect ruccess and displayed the skill of the artist in sustaining the character suc- cessfully through. Before the commencement of the farce, Mr. Paters in stepped before the curtain and on behalf of the cinb thanked the audience for the liberal patronage bestowed and the gener marks of approbation with which the performance was received and stated that with the exception of the trifling cost of advertising and one or two items, the en- tire proceeds which would be between sixty and seventy dollars, would be handed over to the treasurer of the corporation for the benefit of the indigent, and that the club would themwel ves defray ail expense of any ed with the ent Any remarks on the performance which did not include a notice of the Scenery would be both unjust and incomplete for the very fine scenery from tha brash of our esteemed townsman, Mr. Marsh, added iderably to the of the per- formance and goes far to prove that Mr. Marsh possesses superior abilities as a scene painter as well ax in every other department of that fine art. Mr. Marsh's modest and re- tiring manner does not claim credit for one tenth of his ability and comparatively fow of the audience knew that the fine scenery which they so mach admired was from the truch of their respected townmsn, Mr. Marsh. and orphans by the band, as it cheers the widow's heart, sits around the couch of the sick and suffering brother, comforts him in bis last hours, voftens his dyin: pillow and e solemn Order. but hope stirring ceremony of {| muster of nearly all the shorts worth naming Interssting Shooting Match.

The Clerk read a commnuication from from| the Co. Clerk requesting' a statement ithe number of indigents which receiv from the corporation during the x 1870 with the total amount paid to such Suing said year, From H. McKenzie wishing to nrclinse or lease a certain portion of Town Hall lot A petition from Mr. Sheehoy was present- ed setiing forth that the som cf $5 bad Den entered agaiast lot 140 a portion of bis | property in Borclia, the same being entered as unpaid taxes for 1878 whil= the fuct is that he paid all the taxes on that property and all the rest of his property in 1878 and that he Lolds receipts for the sane. He now prays the council to investigate the matter. On motion of Mr. Crandell the Reeve and Dr. Jones were appointed a committee to in- vestigate the above and report to the council at its next sitting. On motion of Dr. Jones Messrs Crandell, Phillippo and Bruce were appointed a com- mittee to take Mr. McKenzie's memorial into consideration and report at next meeting of council. The following accounts were now present- ed. Mr. A. W. Whetter $10 for cedar rails as per contract. Mr. Warren $83.50 for 10,000 feetof plank as per contract, Mr. Ruddy $2.50 being for inspection of weigh scales Mr. Foy $1 for repairing boots for a tramp. Mr McIntyre $1.43 being balance of an account of $14.35 for breaking 5 cords of stone, of which $1292 had already been rid. P The acconnts were handed to the Finance Committee. Mr. Major came before the council regard- ing repairs on Beech street He said he meant to do some considerable repairs on that street this season, it is now ina very rough state and will require consigerable Iabor, he wishes to plant shade trees along bnt can't doit till the ground is properly leveled, but if the council will allow him his statute labor and also Dr. Sangster' labor for. the present year a good job will be made of the atreet. The conncil may if they wish sena the StreetInspector to inspect the street now and again after the repairs have been done and they wi'l be satisfi-d that the ~tatute labor has been ¥ell expended. Ax the read is now they have ta cross the rail- way track twice, whereas by revaidng the rond and putting in a culvort they could get He would fence on another part his of property until he erccts a new one. The Reeve said that the way the conneil had treated this matter had not been entirely to law, that thers really is no statute labor in incorporated 'villages and therefore the council cannot comply with Mr. Major's requ 'st by allowing the s'atu'e labor sought, Mr. Major--~Well if yon can't allow us onr labor you can grant us our statute labor money. The Reeve--There will really be no statute labor fand levied, as in future all repairs on streets must be provided for by approp- riations. Mr. Major-- Well then you can make the necessary appropriation. The Reeve--The council have somewhat changed their mode this year; formerly they had appointed a street committee and left these matters pretty much in their hands but this time all the members of council will pass round and whenever they consider repairg to be necessary they will instruct the town officer te getit donejand in going their rounds the council would examine the road referred to by Mr. Major. Mr. Caandell said they considered the change as in the right direction, hith:rto two comissioners had been appointed and | they had assumed the whole authority and now the council had thonght best to ease them of some of their burden believing that if two could do it five might do itat least as well. 1 Mr. Mujor--I hope you won't overlook my application. Permission was granted Mr. Major to re- move his fence. Mr. Gibson came before the council re garding the wretched condition of the road opposite his premises, complaining that he bad not got justice at the hands of the council, that he had complained last yer but no attention had been paid, the misance was still permitted to exist. He had asked a few planks and he wonld do the work him- self but even that had been refused and now in wet times it 1s almost impossible to' pass out of the house without passing through omd np to the boot tops, they cannot get to th» church in muddy weather, beridés it is well known to be injurious to health to live surrounded by snch mud If there is no. thing done to remedy the evil he will rather sell out and leave the locality thun live in such a place. Mr. Bruce suid that the council in passing round will examine the Mr. Gibson--Very lik :ly hi council mry pass round in dry weather when they can see nothing of the mud. On motion * of Mr. Crandell the sum of $83.50 the amount of Mr. Wairen's account for plank was ordered to be paid, The Assessor came before the council ask- ing instruction as to the entering on the assessment roll a census of the children of school age within the corporation, The Assessor explained that he had already ass- essed a Ipge portion of his territory but from what he had seen in some of the pubiic Journals it would appear as if the clause in the Amended School Act passed on March 5th requiring the Asscasor of each munici- pality to enter on his roll, even for the pre- seat year, a complete census of ull the children of school age within the municipal- ity and what he wishes to know is whether he shall go on and complet his roll as he has a or go back over the ground and enter a census of the school children. The Council would not advise in he matter. The Auditors' Report was now laid on "the table. The total amount of receipts since last of which $9,182.71 was from taxes. The total amount of paymonts for the same time was $9,364.09; of this $3,838 was paid on | to School 'I'rustees; $755 for repmirs on strevts; $436 for County ruts; »695 for salaries; $2,820 being one years interest at 6 per cei on $17,000 of debentures, and $320 in round uumbers in varions payments.
