A number of very brilliant people argue that the fact of Mr. Charles Stiff, one of the officials of the Grand-Trank Railway, having sent out two inspectors to ** state verbally, to the agents that it would be to the interests of the road that the Mowat Government be sustained," is no evidence of the Grand Trunk's using undue influence. Then why were the inspectora sent out ? If the Grand Trunk officials desired every man to use his vote as his conscience dic- tated, why interfere at all? People do} without having a reason for it, And the reason is, as both Sir Joseph Hickeon an? Mr. Stiff have stated, that the Mowat Sovernment has been friendly tp the Grand that there is so much love between the two, so much tenderness and yearning one for the other, why did not the Mowat Government exert its influence last winter when the men in the shops were working half time? Men with large families to support earning $5 per week? No, they did Het care" about exerting: theie-influ- ence, as they had nothing to gain. But now the fate of the Government seems. to be in the hands of the Grand Trunk men, We have no desire to influence the men one way or the other, bat we do wish to point out to them course the Grits are adopting to coerce a large, an intelligent and influential. body of men to vote against their own convic- ttons, Of course, these two officials whom we have referred to are too cute to commit themselves directly ; but the inference--*"' Ir WOULD BE TO THE IN- MOWAT GOVERNMENT SUSTAINED. ;" impression does that leave on your mind, dear reader' MEREDITH AND MOWAT.

Although Mr. Davis waited until nearly nine o'clock before he ofiened the meeting, no opposi tion. appeared. The supporters of the song and dance evidently thought it safer to. rely on the incredulity and politcal prejatices of that (in past | yeats) 'strong Grit locaity, than to expose | the weakness of their case by facing Mr. | Davis and his friends on the platform. If, however, the Ahrens party imagine that the votera in the present contest will allow any past connection with the Reform party to influence their decision, they Bre greatly mistaken.

"He read ao letter that Mfr Mowat had written to one Harvey, reques- ing him to desist from unseating Mr. Dowling for corrupt practices at an elec- tion. He shewed how, when Mr. Dowling had been not only unseated bat disqaali- fied, Mr. Mowat had passed a special Act to remove the disqualification ; as he had done in the cases of several other candi- datee- whom, the courta condemned as _un- worthy of? public trust.
