Indeed it sneaks volumes for the intelligence and condor of thooe men, who are guided in cast- ing their elective franchise by truth, and truth only, irrespective of political bias or pazty predilection. With such a change in the moral aspect of political affairs, we may safely hope {or a regeneration of the Legislature. The election campaign for this County so far has been eminently successful for Mr. Morrison’s cause.

On any occasion which Mr. Partly has ad- dressed the electors, he has spoken at nothing save his honesty, and the great amount of good he will confer on the County. At one of his meetings he was asked if it was in his power to bring any special legislation for this County, he was unable to give answer; which plainly she‘va that he is enileavormg to lead the people into an error. The truth is, a law enacted by Parliament has the same eflect in the County of York that it has in the Conn-l ty of Grey, and the same in every county throughout the Province; consequently the difl'erence between a resident and non resi- dent in this respect in of no importance ; the only point being as to the relative abilities of the two men. In this respect there is no corn- pariaon, Mr. Morrison being a man of the highest intellectual attainments; while Mr. Partlyâ€"n ith all due reepect to him as a pri- vate man-ie' moat wretchedly ignorant of axon the moat common-place aflkirs of the country.
