The nomination of Candidates to represent this County in Pnrliatnent took place at the Court House, in Owen Sound, last Tuesday, the 16th inst. The preiiminaries having been gone through with. the Returning Officer, M r' Lunn, called upon the electors present to nominate candidates. T. Scott, Esq.. of Owen Sound, in an sup-t propnate and neatly turned speech, propored George Jackson, E~q. , our present M. P. P.. as a fit and pmper petsun to represent 1the County nf Grey m Parliamvnt. This-was se- cunded by Mr. Graham of Sydenham, who re- ‘erred to the straightfom ard conduct of Mr. Jm-ksun in Pa: iizunem. Mr. Nixon of Thornbttry was prepnsed by J. Frost of Owen Sound. who 'said his candi- date was a cloth manufacturer [A voiceâ€"he won’t steal any more of our wool when he goes to Parliament]. The mover forgot the interests of his candidate, and commenced enlogising Mr. Snider, whom he wishes out of the Way, in order to instal himself in the mayorality of Owen Sound, as he suppnses Mr. S. the only obstacle to the consummation of that object. This was seconded by Mr. S. B. Chatfey, ofGlenelg. Mr. 5 pence of Mount Forest proposed Mr. Snider of Owen Sound as a, fit and proper rcrson to represent this County in Parliament. He commenced his hatange by frequently in- voking God’s name in behalfofhis candidate, but quite forgot the heavenly injection to “not bear false witness against thy neighbor.” He murdered the Queen’s English in a barbarous manner, frequently designating his candidate in the feminine girder. Dr. McGregnr of Sullivan seconded this, in a tirade of abuse which has lecame stereott‘ped from its fre- quent use durinu' the past three weeks. He cloaked the sins of the present government by abusing previous Administrations. He gave utterance to only one truth durinrr hrs har~ angne.â€"â€"He said that “ Mr. Jackson was the poor man’s friend.” This involuntary expresk sion of truth elicited a series of cheers Iron}; the crowd. 1;“: M r. Jackson came forwerd and said he had hoped this contest might have been carried on without indulging in personalities, but ow~ ing to the conduct of the proposer of Messrs. Nixon and Snider he must allude to personal matters however disagreeable it might be to himselfto do so, and to those to whom he would allude. He alluded to the corrupt sale ol'the Shrievalty by Mr. Snider, and that the individual [Nimin] nominated from Tho'rnhury was a party to the sale. He then referred to the abandonment of principle by the Mac- tlonaid-Sicotte end the Macdonald-Dorion "Adn‘iinistrations and also the Double-Majori- tt principle, which provnles that no measure shall be tort ed upon either section ot ti; 8 Pro- vince, unless by the consent of a majority of its representatives. The retrenchment policy} of the. government was next alluded to, and disposed of in a manner satisfactorily to the people, if we might judge by their frequent ('ltt't’ffi. Mr. Jackan then read an extract from a letter written by Sheriff Snider on the the 2 st March 1862, advising Mr. 'J. to ae- cept the office of Commissioner of Crown Lands in the Cartrer-h‘laedonald Ministry, and that he (Mr. Snider] would “ put the writ throng'y ‘ in the shortest time possils-le in order to :nuent oppo~ition to Mr. Jacksonls return. Mi S-ni 3?! .s (nndmt “hilt! in the C patil) of (.ronn Land Agent in this County was then referred to. A person named Horton made application for the purchase of 300 acres of land in the Township of Osprey. Be “as toh by Mr. S. that the prri'pe'rtt in ques- tion beionged to his [Mr S.] brother, “ho Would to doubt sell it. Mr. Horton gave- abom $1000 for the good-will ol the property; and ther. ascertained that the brother of Mr. Snider had no claim to the property other than his name being entered on the books by his brother the Agent. Some two years since a property 0(200 acres in the Trwnship of Col- licgwood was being seld by SherifTSriider for taxes along with a quantity of ether lands.â€" The first named property wasnvalnable, ,and when it came to he offered for sale'ou‘r honest Sheriff addressed tnose arou’n’llhim Withâ€"- “ Now, my brother a ants this lot ; he hasn’t bid against any of you, and if you are gentle- men you won’t bid against him.” 'No person bid, and the farm Was “ knocked down ”_ for about 840. Mr. Snider was alsocharged with having certified for his friends as to the performance of settlem nt duties on {andsâ€" which consists of clearmga certain number of acres and the erection of building‘sâ€"and al- though In or 11 years had elapsed these Im- provernents were not yet performed.
