Threw short years ago thare might have 'been seen walking the streets of the george- ous capital of the Austrian Empire a young man of noble, nay, of Royal Rank, through whose veins coursed in hot haste the proud blood of the House of Hapsburg, no less a personage than the brother of the hauglity Frances Joseph, Emperor of Aus- tria. This was the digmfisd and daring Maximilian, a prince of the house of Aus- tria ; while by his side might be seen the fair and intelligent paitner of his life, the amiable Charlotta. Their lives had lither- to been one unclouded day without even & speck in the most distant horizon. All went ehecrily as a marriage bell, till on one ead day he met the seducer Napoleon B11, who whispered words of evi! Council in his ear, and dropped into his cup a poi- gon more deadly than that of the cobra. He speaks of distant sunny lands, whose dust is gold and where eternul spring abides. He dwells on the glories of the land of the famed Montezamas. He pointso a peo- ple stretching out their hands for a ruler; a throve dusty from want of an oscupant, and & sceptre rusting from disuse. The young man's ambition is fired, and he resolvas to giveup the certain for the uncertain, and join the Mexican expedition us a royal ad- venturer though iu reality only the toy of Napoleon. And so firmly has the serpent £ot hus coils around his victim, that wife, family and friends are powerless to. prevail He 1s threatened with the deprivation of his royal rauk, but he heeds it not ; his wife seluses lo accompany him, that too can be borne, and off he goes under the egis of his betrayer. And what has been the results ? He was first deprived of royal rank, Na- poleon his false friend deserted him in the hour of lus greatest need, the partner of his life, the fair Charlotta, becomos hopelessly insane fiom I di 7 and now DOMINION DAY. Doings at Priuzee Albert. SPEAKING BY THE CAIJIDATES FOR . PARLIAMENTARY. lIONORS. HORSE' RACING, SPORTS, GAMES, ETC. The inhabitants of Reach generally and many from the surrounding Townships met at Prince Albert on the 1st inst., in order to do henor to that day which sll Canada seemed inclined to honor, and while we are prepared to admit that many: places on that day made u much more extensive display and a much Jatger. amount of money may have been spent, but we Lelieve that in no other locality has the day been celebrat- ed more pleasantly and orderly and with less eause for regret for any excesses. People from all directions began to pour into the village about 9 o'clock and con- tinued in no stinted stream wll afternoon. The Volunteere mustered, at 9 o'cloek and after being put through some rather n:ce movements, they wera supplied with ammunitiop and marched off for target practice, Phree prizes were shot for at 200, 300, and 400 yards. 1st prize J. C. Widdifield, Uxbridge Infantry Company; 2ad M. Dillon, Privce Albert ; 2rd A. E. McCaw. After the shooting the Quoiting Match took place. There were threerinks, After a gpirited contest the Ist prize was awarded to John Lowman, Prince Albert ; and the 20d to Wm. Bolton, Epsom. Then followed the Foot Races. The first was a race passing over [our hurdles. This was a capital race. The Ist prize was awarded to H. Miller, Uxbridge; 2ad Israel Sharp, Borelia. Henry Miller was also winner of the men's foot race. The Water Can race wag won by Mrs Coby. This race may have been relished by some. Perhaps the most pleasing race of all was the boys fool race when a whole crowd of linle follows under 14 years of age set off in splendid style making a capital run of it. J. Dake came in first ; F. ¥Yarnold 20d ; aud E. Eddy 3d. The three legged race was rather amus- ing. This was won by M. Perkins and tose. Next came the Horse Raciug--this was a perfeot little Detby, The first was a race the best two in three--half mile heats for The following horses started : Geo. Tummond's ¢ Reach Maid." N.

The Slow Race, and Colt Race were not filled. The Managing Committee discharged their duties in a most efficient manner, and deserve the thanks of the community. The sports of the day were wound up. most appropriately by adjourning to the Public Hall in erder to listen to the several we have the once noble Maximilian, after deeds Tof noble daring betrayed into the hande of his enemies, taken out to the pub- lic square and shot like a dog!

The plucky little city of Hamilton is more than a match for her blustering sister 'Toronte. At the great Railway Conven- tion held at Walkerton on Wednesday didates for Parl y Honors giving their views of the situation. George Currie, Esq., being called to the chair thanked the meeting for the position in whieh they had placed him, said that he expected that the candidates would all be present and give the electors the benefit of their views on some of those matters which most deeply interest us in our politically allered condifion. fe said that the candi- dates were not likely soon to enjoy a more favorable opportunity of meeting with so large a rep of the el from the various parts of the riding, and as this is a very important era in the history of our country he hoped that the electors would impastial bearing. M. C. CAMERON E.q., being call- | $25 give 10 each of the candidates a calm. and |i and to make it the means of all the good of which it 1s susceptable ; but he mach feared it the same degree of hostile feeling between parties were exhibited 1n the future as Had been manifested 1n the past, under the new order of things the cousequences our altered state ; but one thing we ought to vard against is the raising of antagonism tween the various sections of the Domin- ion. HM we wish to be treated generously we must so treat others. A coalition A fd ernment he said Js already formed He is will even be more than: they | were in: the past. We were now, he said, making a new start as pposed to the principle of litions but it is only fair to wait'and see what the gov- ernment will dv; 'what measurse it will in- it were, and could well aflord to exp party strife trom. our politics, and it should certainly be done. Tne speaker went on to compare ine cost ol carrying on the gov- under Confederation with what it 'was under the system just laid aside, and what it might have been under a legislative union, and showed that the province of On- tario nad more to. fear from party politics and sectional strife now than she had under the old regime ; and he looked upon it as only fair and reasonable that the new gov- ernment should stand or fall by its acts and notbe met with factious opposition merely for (he . sake of opposition. Now, he said, we should sink party and seek that along wltich was best for the country from whatever quarter it may come. He said it was the privilege nay it was the duty of the electors to see lo il that none but men of ability and integrity be selected to set in motion the new mchinery; and it was the duty of men so selected to see that none but good measures receive their sanction. He said that in the past le had opposed every measure, from whatever sonree it came, which he conceived to be adverse to the best interest of the country, and in like manner he had always given his support to whatever measures he found to be advantageous to the country irrespective of party ; and should he again have the hon- or to represent this constituency he would follow a similar course. He 'said that he was desirous of being returned for the riding if he can-obtain ith a fair and honerable manner but he would rather a thousand times stay at home than obiain it by unfair means or by hounding the electors from place to place or go fiom dvorto door pest. ering them to-death to obtain a promise of their vote. He spoke of ome objections 'that had been urged against him such as his being a Non-1esident ; hegsaid 1t appear- ed to him that a Non-resident miglit repie- sent the interests of the Riding as well ns a resident can--and it would be considerable presumption to say that nooutsider could be found equal to the residents. He said it had also been urged against him that he had defended the Fenians; whoever made this objection were dealing unfairly, inasmuch as being Queen's Council he was sworn not to refuse to defend any one from any personal dislike or prejudice. 11s gaid that being Q. C. the Queen had the first claim upon his services ; but his gervices not be- ing required by the crown at that time he | received a permit from the crown to defend some of these men. In winding up lis address the speaker said that if the electors considered him a fit and proper person tore- | present them, then return him; butaf they found another more agreeable to them; one who ean represent them better than he can then it is their duty to take that repie- sentative. The speaker resumed his seat. Mr, THOMPSON was next called. le referied lo the great subject which we were this day celebrating. He said that being a new man in this ine not having the honor like the gentleman who preceeded him of occupying a seat in the Legislature he had no accounly lo give no sins to answer for had as it were a clean record to commence with, and he hoped that should he receive their suffrages and be returned at the com- ming election that his record may be un- stained when he comes to render an ac- count of his stewardship. He said that the gentleman who had just taken his seat had 'end that he (Thompson) had been brought out by a reform convention ; this he eaid was a fact and he felt prond of it; he has al- ways belonged to that party, though from various causes he had not taken aa ac- tive fut mn politics for some time. He said that having contracted a severe cold he could uot speak with any degree of comfort nor so cistinet'y as he would wish, he would therefore not detain them long It might be neeessary however to indicate what course he would pursue, if elected, when dealing with some of those questions most likely to come before the House. In the distribution of taxes he said he had a better chance to know on what articles the greater'amount of taxes should be laid, and he would take care to use his influence to have the luxuries of the rich bear their Iib- eal share; while the necessities of tlie farmer and mechanic will be made as light as possible. The matter of immigration he said would receive his serious attention,and he would use his best efforts to turn the tide of immigration towards our shores by offer- ing free gifts of land. ls would use his best endeavours to have the expenditure curtailed by introducing the most rigid economy in every departnent of the public servic. LAgre expenditares,he sa Proeh as that of the Intercolonial Railway will be ys but the com of any other expensive work should not be entered upon for at least some time to coms. He said that being a residenthe had a belter chance of knowing the wants aad wishes of the Riding than a Toronto gentleman can be expected todo, And he would only ray (the electors think.that he can serve them as well, at least, as Mr. Cameron then he would say let them give him their inter- before we de ity let us pati- ently wait and see that there 18 to reject and what there may be to approve. He «aid that we were about to-get the local af- fairs placed under our owa control and if they are not properly managed we will have ourselves to blame, He said that he had one plank which he would Jay down and which he would-use his utmost en- deavor to carry oul to the very letter. That is the Homestead Law, and Free Grants of lands 10 actual settlers. Parties i The Committee on County Property brought in their Report, as follows : Reference was made to the orderly and tidy state of the jail and premises. The amount of sundry accounts in the Report was $916 54--$17 50 of which the committee could not recommend, viz: R. L. Munro $12 50 for venetian blinds, and A. C. Wilson's account of $5 for staining the walls of two of the offices. The Committee further remarked that 8s the large sum of $104 94 bad been charged for white-washing and' cleaning the several offices, each officer in future provide for the cleaning of his own office. The Committee r led an altera. into the country, he said, are often ruined and driven to seek a home in some other laws would aflord. He said we did not only drive out the poor but we kept out the rich, men of capital, he said, would not ceme in and settle among us, they all went to the United States because their Jaws were 80 much more favorable than ours, but if he is returned he will use hisanfluence to make our laws as liberal as those of the United States, or even more liberal. He will do- all he car to bring the smile to every countenance and make all the people comfortable; prosperous, wealthy, itdepend- eut, aud happy. Ha said that he would also strive to have the Jaws so amended that the poor man would be protected as well as the rich whick is by no means the case now. ln the meantime he said the poor man had almost no protection. Some one asked him what course he would puréne with regard to 1ailways. He said that the subject of railways did not come within the jurisdiction of the Parliament of" Ontario. As public improvements he goes io for railways but he goes in for subscibing from his own private funds. If the rail- way from Port Periy is ever built he be- lieves it must be done from private subserip- tion: he does not believe that the Township will be willing to subscribe anything to- wards it. The speaker resumed his seat. MR. GILLESPIE was next called. He congratulated the meeting on the pleasing celebration which they bad just had and on the occasion which had brought them to- gether. Ile sail that he had always con- sidered that Confederation would be an ex- pensive concern as the work necessarily connected with it could: not fail to bear heavily on the public purse, The inter- co'onial railway for instance would be an expensive work and would require at least ten millions more than the sum guaranteed, and having made some calculations on the matter he believed it wonld cost the Do- minion about two millions every year in- clusive of interest, to keep the road work- ing. lla says that he is not a little sur- prised to find his friend Mr. Paxton speak so highly in favor of the American laws and so much admire their freedom ; and 10 find him so anxious to wtroduce them among us in order to give us freedom ; bur he (Gillespie) would like to ask if British Law, that nuder which we live, is not at least as Iree as any law under heaven: and with regard to thehomestead law he looked upon it as offeginga premium to frand and eneovraging dishonesty, With regard to free grants of land to actual stilere he (Gillespie) woul | heartily go in for a] that -- iu fact he would dv anything within 1eason to atiract to our snl that flood of immigra- States, He said he was rather surprived: atthe course pursued by Mr Paxton, while: he has been all peace and'good will, Ie (Paxton) has been ealling §r. Cameron by every endearing title he could think of aud canvassing for him with all his might, while lus proper colleague Mr. Thompson has been entirely overlooked ; not a word being said in his behalf. Me. Gillespie said that should he be returned he would go in fcr retrenchment in every departinent as fur as compatible with eflicient govern- ment. He eaid he had not been slow in seeking economy in his own municipality ; and in the County Council he had given his assistance to a most thorough retrench- ment, and it was very much needed there. He said that he had made a pretty thorough canvas s and fiading that] his chances are very good he would suggest 10 Mr. Paxton to resign in his (Gillespie's) favor. After referring to his experience in muni- cipal matters the speaker took his seat.-- Thus ended the addresses of the candidates. MR. GORDON. being called made a tell- ing speech which is reluctantly crowded out for want of space. a [=== DIRECTORS "MEETING. = A meeting of the Directors of the Cart- wright Agricultural Society was held at 29h inst. ~ Prosent.--The President and Secretary and Messrs.

The Prize List for the coming Exhibition was taken up and discussed, several alter- ations were made in the List,which cannot fail to increase the interest taken in the land for want of such protection as these | tion constantly flowing into the United Tooley's Hotel, Williamsburg on Saturday | tion in some cf the prison bedsteads amounting to $1 each bed.. " Mr.. Fairbanks said that he objected to 'the County paying for cutting wood for the supply of the jail or court hoyse, so long as there is a sufficiency of prison labor to ac- complish it. Certainly, he said the wood should be put in so that the prisoners might cut it all ; it would only be a health- ful exercise for them. Tie did not relish the manner in which the decounts had been handed in ;: they were certainly in a very unsatisfactory state; for bis part he would refuse to receive them unless they were made a great deal more explicit. He look- ed upon (he charge for white washing as extravagant ;. while it contained no details such as number of days employed, expense of material, &c. He did not see how the committee could deal with the account in the absence of such information ; and with regard to the boot and shoe arrangement 'he thought that it was high time that that 'business was brought to a close. The idea: of furnishing prisoners with new boots and allowing them to walk off with them was simply absurd, Ile would like to know where they found their authority for supplying either boots or shoes to prisoners, Mr. Major would suggest that if it is necessary to supply these things to pri scners the County had better purchase a quantity at wholesale, keep them in the prison furnish them. to such: prisoners as must have them, and when the prisoner leaves the prison let the boots be taken from hin. He said that it was giving a premium (o vice to present new boots to prisoners. With regard to the charge of $101 for white washing it was absurd; and as for the gate it was just twice what it was worth, $4 or $5 was plenty and Le should ebject to giving mote. Mr. Gillespie thinks that the manner of supplying the supplies for the jail is some- woat extraordinary and founded wpon erroneous: principles ; this: paging for shovel ing snow and all this while "there are pri. soners enough to perform the work appears not a little extravegant and ought to be put a stop to. Mr.. Bairbavks said he would go for striking out the boot and shoe account en. tirely ; be would refuse to pass it and al- low the parties who, without any proper authority, ordered these, things to pay for them, . Mr. Campbell said he would advise not to.throw out the account but to pay it in «thie mstance, and put an end to the prac- tice at once... lie believed that the Coun. cit cau be compelled to pay the account as it has been certified to by a County officer, supplies. The white-wasling account was reduced to $60" and the gate account to $6. On motion of Mr. Gibbs the committee arose reported progress and asked leave to sit again on Monday st 2 o'clock.-- 'Carried Mr. Wheler seconded' by Mr. Major moves that the Council do now adjourn till Mondsy.-- Fost. Mr. Major seconded by Mr. Sexton moves that the sum of $200 be granted for the purpose of building a bridge over the Nongnon River on the Centie Road. -- Lost. The Committee of the whole again took up the Report on Printing, and after eon. siderable discussion its adoption. was negatived and it was ordered: to be sent back to the: committee: of the whole for _| certain amendments. "On 'motion the Counell adjourned: till. 10 o'clock on Monday. SIXTH DAY. Mouday, June 24th. The committee on equalization brought in their Report. Mp. Fairbanks, Chairman of the com- mittee, stated that this being the first in-- and one whose duty it was to furnish. the: corporation and argued that the' prayer of the petition should be acceded to: : Mr. Kenoedy considered that since a sunt of $625 would bo. required to make good the insufficiency of the government lans ; he believed that it would be only Just and right that the government should provide for the additional expense ; but if the money could not be got from the gov- ernment, he would vote for granting, the prayer of the petition. Mr, Brabaz mn would like to know if tHe contemplated changes were not to a cer. tain extent in order to make the building more convenient for agricultural shows, and whether the agricultural society had not agreed to meet part if not all the expense of the alteration. Mr. Brown replied that they would re ceive $600 from the agricultural society but the additional ground the corporation weuld require to purchase for their ac- commodation would cost more than $600. Mr. Gillespie said that the Drill shed at Cannington bad cost more than was at fiest expected, but the people of Brock did nat come down to the County Council asking for an additional grant ;. no! the people of Brock put their hauds inte their 'own pockets and paid the extra charge, and he conceived that the Town of Whitby in view of the large amouut which it has al ready received"should not come down. ask- ing an additional grant. He could not vote for it, Alter the matter had been theroughly ventilated. It was moved by Mr. Iair- banks that the Warden of this County be required to petition the government for an additional grant of $625 towards the erec- tion of the Battalion Drill Shed, in the Tomo "Whitby, the same being for an state of the plans furnished by the govern- ment engineer ; and should the government refuse to accede to the praye» of the pe- tition ; that this Couacil do grant the sum of 8300 towards the completion of said shed.-- Carried. reported by the above resolution ; and on motion for its adoption the yeas and nays were taken. The yeas were Messrs. Hubbard, Kenoedy, McCreight, Smith, (K.Whithy) McRae, Fairbanks, Gibbs; Dryden, Guy, Brown, Weir, Campbell, Bickell, Sexton--15, Nays-- Messrs, Smith, (Scott), Gilles pie, Chapman, Grabam, Staclair, Wheler, Brabazon--7s So the motion was carri ed. Mr. Brabazoa moved seconded by Mr. Gillespie that the sum of $100 be granted to the Town hip of Brock towards paying for the erecting of their Dill Shed. A motion to adjourn was carried and the Council adjourned. SEVENTH DAY. Tuesday, June 25+ 'Warden took the chair. Mr. Major seconded by Mr, Wheler moves that the sum of $100 be granted to each municipality wherein a Drill. Shed bas been erected. He said that the Town completion of the Battalion Drill Shed, be cause of the defects in the governmeat plans, Reach too he said- had lost: about $100, und it would be decidedly wrong that Reach should sustain her loss unas 'sisted while the 'Town of Whitby is about to get $300 from the Council. Mr. Campbell would like to have the plain the princi b their motion is founded ;. if d the matter rightly there was no similarity between the claim set up by Whitby and that in the re- solution now proposed. Mr. Fairbanks said that the claims of the Village of Oshawa was equal to that of any of the municipalities that have built Drill Sheds ; but they were very different from those of the 'Town of Whitby. After considerable discussion jin which Messrs. Wheler and Brown tock a prowmi- nent part, two members having {objected to the motion on point of want of notice, the motion was rulled out. Mr. Fairbanks, seconded by Mr. Ken- nedy, introduced and' cariicd through a By-Law appointing commissioners for the [Bridge over (he for the Bridge over the Talbot River, 'This By-Law substitutes the name of Mr. Bolton, Thorah, for that of the Reeve of Mara and Rama for the Narrows Bridge ; and that of James Ritchic and Walls, the parties previously appointed for the Tablot Riser. : The ittee of the whole on le upon whic Be d stance in which the lizing ittee were called upon to equalize personal pro- Counfy property resumed i's sittings on the Report of the standiog committee.
