The intelligent electors of this County will, men and such proceedings. support an honest man. We dare the Beacon, we dare Macfarlane to come face to face with Mr. Daly and prove that he has ever resorted to the contemptable_sub- terfuges to which they are now resorting.

The ‘object of all this ‘will appear) pin to our readers, Mr. Macfarlane has no poli- tics—no policy ; he claims not the suppor! of the people on that ground ! hence "A reason of his pursuing such a hoditote coursé.

Geo.Brown, like the worthy who edits Mr. Macfarlane’s organ, will defend he greatest villain that ever lived, if he but lend his influence 10 farther Brown’s views. On the same principie*he will resort to every means that will tend to injure an opponent, no matter how honor- able that opponent may be. His private character is mot even safe from the vilest attacks. These men have no_ higher idea of right or wrong than. that which serves their own purpose. They can at one time stoop to abuse, personally, the clergy of the Church of Rome—to use lan- guage the most vile towards their religious at another they cannot be too will Institutions ; eloquent in their praise. They can at one _}time find no language too exalted in which to speak of Orangemen ; then again they designate them as a parcel of ruffians whose deeds of darkness are tgo horrible to relate. With these worthies Rep. by Pop, while their friends are not.in power, is the only salvation for Upper Canada. As soon, owever, as their friends get their hands into the money chest, they make the dis- covery that Rep. by Pop. is a humbug. While their friends were in opposition these consistent individuals raved about | Separate, Schools being a curse to the country, as soon as their friends are in a position to rob the Public Treasury, an extension of Separate Schools is all right. Such are the men who would now rule Canada. A Warning to Officials The old game of intimidation is about to be played off a secondtime in this County. The Organ has a long article in its last issue itirek tent that every Post- master in the County who dares to vote for Mr. Daly will be dismissed. There are but two Postmasters in ‘the County who are by law prohibited from voting. All the others have as much right to vote as Mowat has, who ‘sold his prunciples for the doubtful privilege of issuing a few marriage licenses— master, not in an Incorporated City, Town or Village, divided into Wards, has as good a right to vote as any other man in the County. Why threaten to dismiss them? Why should freemen be intimidated from ex: ercising their rights? Is this reform? There are of- ficials in this County who, although they do not vote, use their influence, officially, to the prejudice of Mr. Daly. We trust, atthe ee time, these worthies \rshall beyproperly attended 68e"/holding ’& postmastership Worth from it to $10-@ year, let them yote—let them exercise their rights—we dare the patch- work Cabinet to dismiss them for so doing. All coun- try Postmasters have a legal right to vote : why should they not exercise that righ! Ifit be wrong for petty Gffiginls to vote let the law be changed: so'long how- ever, as the Iaw permits them to vote, how ‘dare any Government use intimidation to prevent them from acting as free-men ! In 1862 Postmasters known to be fayorablo,to Mr.Daly were threatened with dismissal if they: Jaared to vote. In localities where Postmasters were known to be of an opposite opinion no such in- timidation was used. Let evey Postmaster in the Co- unty who has a right to vote, and all except those We have mentioned ave that right, do so—and let the patchwork Cabinet dismiss them if it dare! Coming Events cast a shadow be- ere fore them, We notice that the new Grit Postmaster. of Stratford makes himself very officious in getting up fraudulent votes, This is the same gentleman, we believe, who threatened to break his sword and burn his uniform sqthér than turm out itshonor of the Prince-ef Wales.
