From veing the intemperate assailant of the Judges, the @lobe has become their defender and protector. For an alleged attack upon the Judges of the Supreme Court‘ and Judges of the Court of Appeal, Ontario, the " Big Push" journal reads Mr. Dacrox MoCazrtHt, the newly elected member for Cardwell, a rather severe lecture. It suits the jourâ€" nal‘s purpose to wilfully misrepresent the remarks Mr. McCartur made us of, so as to make it appear that he had been guilty of disrespect and diseourtesy to the Judges. What Mr. MoCartar did say at one of his election meetings, as fully explained â€" by â€" bimsel{ in _ lotters New Adveriisements Fresh Oystersâ€"J A B M ntreal Telegrap Meeting Confectionery â€" J A ] To the Trade â€"J A B to the : loronto journais, . was . l0 the eff:ct that certain gentlemen had been takenm from the Bar and ‘placed on the Bench in Courts, where they would have to review tha decisions of Judges who have been on the Bench ~for years. He takes the ground, apparently, that these newly appointed Judges have been put over the heads of those who have great experience on the Bench, and quesâ€" tions the propriety of the Minister of Justice thus passing over the claims of the elder occupants of the Bench.‘ He has not, therefore, made any attack or asâ€" sault on the Bench, but simply spoken words in â€" favour of the elder Judges. Mr. MoCarrHy‘s sins in the estimation of the Globe are that he is a Conservative, the newly elected member for Cardwell, and that he should have dared to say one word to chalienge the wisdom or propriety o. ie iH{on. Mr. Brake‘s appointmens to hom ‘3‘ite eliey ion Goreinment, with a view no doubt oi obtaining all the aid which can be placed 2t bhis disposal for the protection of the Iae strike of the locomotive engineers on the Grand Trunk still continues, and there is no certainty of an agreement soon being made beiween the Company #0d their rebellious servants. The strike was ordered from the headâ€"centre of the Brotherhood in the United States, and is, therefore, supported by the whole body of United Enginesrs on the continent. From ~ail appearrnces the strike was a hasty: and ill advi,cd movement, as no proper sleps seem‘to aave been taken to get an amicable »ettlement of the differâ€" ences between the men and the Company. The whole thing was a surprise, sprung on the Com:any and the public at a very imconveniel time, _ and. planned, no doubt, t> overawe the Company into conceding the terms demandâ€" terpreted the ased was always a staunch defender of ed by _ the _ men. Unfortunately the strike has been marked by several acts of gross violence and intimidation. ‘The worst of these occurred at Beileville, the strikers at that point either being of a peculiar class or under the influence of bad spirits. _ An attempt was made to take a train from the station, but, not withstanding the presence of a company of volunteerss, the driver was pulled from his engine and seriously beaten. Why this violence was allowed under the ciroumstances is rather mysterious, for by the exhibition of proper firmness the authorities should, with the aid of the military, have been in a position to uuell any disturbance. it is reported that the manager of the Grand Trunk has placed simselfin communication with the Dominâ€" e elections he TT AWA stmas Ca an | Te en« A Y he discharge of his duty, as always actuated by a P« H W a inNUtCS, DC estion whethe A N t nual Gener® 180 M to say, died the lungs. e the case 1e ho ind for ge enA om led | _ Mr. Waller should e ‘ | as Mayor to sign cheq: £8â€" ‘ Murphy the sum of $ we | above their origimal co for | as he states, the Cor ent i their bill; of extras of the City Engineer t to lox' the contract and being put to the stoppag d moru.ng IOr th &, | James Kyleson. contra wh [he facts, however, are quite different.

In consequence of the stoppage cf trains, sleichs were run to Napanee toâ€" day by livery men here ; the roads are badly drifted by last nliht’l snow storm, but all the stages were able to get through with much ditficulty. The strikers did not take their pri oners to Shannonville, but instead placed them in the lodgeâ€" room of the Brotherbhood under guard.

[It is proba‘ie that a further attempt will be mudo to start a train from here this afterâ€" noon, when a sufficient military force will probably bave besn coliected. In the meantime the men of the 49th Battalion have Leen returned to their quarters. The strikers do not seem (\nclinod to injure â€" the oompny'l property, but they are determined to preveat the operation of the line. Much exciteâ€" mert exists in town, and it seems probaâ€" ble that this last outrage will cause public sympathy, which has been to a considerâ€". mnble extent with the strikers, to‘turn in‘ an opposite direction, when there will be no difticulty in securing volunteers. Later, 7 p.m.â€"The Company had inâ€" tended to make another attempt to move the train at 4 o‘clock, but abandoned the intention.

(It is cxg:otod that more efficieut meagures will be taken toâ€" morrow, in order to secure the mution of the line. It is reported t the striketrs offered this evenimg to allow the mail car to proceed, but insisted on the possenser cars remaining here; the offer wes declined. _ The strikers are still gathered about the station in the taverns, and, so (1r, have made no further efforts to block the line, which is now clear.

A Grand Trunk Railroad employee says that the railroad authorities will be unable to secure more than 50 new drivers to do the work of the road, and many of these appear afraid to act.

Rocuments which have come into the hands of the police show that the men were urged by the Chief of the Brotherhood to‘ strike before they had any opj »rtunity of conferring with the chief Exeocutive officer of the road.
