Last week a man ‘ nearly lost his life in creasing it, and a, man with a span of horses drove right up without being aware of its wretched condition. Last Sunday night brother Bingham kindly placed lanterns atpro- per intervals apon the bridge to warn the humble sinner on his way to the: “house of God,” that dangers of no: common kind beset his path, and it was, this man’s duty to look after the body. as well as the soul. Having the mis-t fortune to be neither a lawyer nor the son of a lawyer, yet my conviction is based on common sense, and there is no doubt that if any accident happens on this bridge, the Municipality of Ben- tinck will be responsible for the dams e.

Any one acquainted with that gentleman must come to the con. elusion that the writer of that address must have received his education on the Lakes of Killa'ney, and inhaled pretty freely the efiects of the wonderful “ blarney stone." “We feel we are about t.\ sutfer a loss which will silt-ct us for long years, unless, as we fusdly how, you should become one of us, when our little village shall have so in creased in size and importance as to af- lord scope for your abilities.” This is avery poor compliment indeed to the inhabitants of our clachau; there is no ennipany for him here. no scope for those wonderful abilities that he was in possession of.

It was worth the trial when a vacancy occurred, before the experi- :mcnt had been practically tested, but ; the old sectional jealousy which has for i long years stood in the way of a practio goal political union of the heretofore , United Province of Canada revived and E reasscrtcd its influence. Instead of | taking the best men to be found in the TDominion, without reference to their l origin their creed or their residence, it i would appear that when a vacancy oe- c-m-s or a new flzsbinet ‘- I“ 3 ' ml the Nova Scotian interests, .ac New Brunswick interests, and the interests of: Ontario and Quebec, respectively, are' to be considered as somethin distinct or separate from those of the fiominion. l The adoption of this system is, I fear,. but the beginning of a wire ahich will l he more fruitful of disaster to the com- monwealth than the protestations nowE being made by Nova Seotia, with the manner, rather than with the fact of Confederation; for if those sectional in- tcrests are to be considered, they will be perpetually obtruded. In this event‘ what is more likely to occur than that, instead of a determination to overcome all obstacles to the efficient working out of the new constitutional programme, there will set in a disposition to agitate for‘such a change in our political rela- tionskor condition, as may be deemed to be necessary? A state of continual change,‘ or even of a dis ition to change, should be careful y guarded against, in my opinion, inasmuch as ex- perience havdemonstrated that a de- fective law liberally administered is preferable to uncertainty. The Minister of Justice stated in the House on Tuesday that the Government did not propose, at present, to fill the ofiice of Secretary of the Provinces va- cated by Mr. Archibald of Nova Sco- tia, who was defeated at the polls.â€" Thc reason, no doubt, is that the an- tugonistic position of the Commoners from Nova Scotia precludes them from the elligible class, therefore, to refrain from appointing, in this case, is only additional evi encc,if such were need- ed, that the very objectionable princi. plo of sectional appointments, in the existing proportions, is to he adhered to. The House of Commons will proba- bly be adjourned about the 10th 0f next month. SENER.

DR. LIVINGSTONE. FENIANS COMING. Joseph Garvie, being sworn, said that about the end of August last, he heard Matilda Gourley at her father’s house tell of trouble at Jones’s. She said there had been a row on Saturday night, and Mr. Jones had intimidated her with a revolver, and made Mrs. Jones give an oath that she would go with him to the States till he could get a divorce. He wanted to go on Monday but she said she would go on Sunday. Old Mr Jones came on Sunday, and seeing something the matter, Mrs. Jones told him about it. He would not let her go, and said he would see that nothing of the kind took place. Matilda Geurley was not at the house when these things took place, and must have heard them from some one else. She said she had a let :er addressed to herself that M rs. Jones had left about her trunks, the purport of which was to inform Mrs. Jones’ pee. ple after she had gone to the States. Her father advised her to keep the let- ter, and witness believed she had ita good while after. Some other witnesses were examined, their evidence not being material, and and the jury having retired, returned a verdict, that Anthony Ford was murder- ed by some person unknown, and that. S. A. Jonas counselled and procured that person to commit the murder. The Coroner issued his warrant for detaining Mr. Jones in custody, in accordance with the verdict of the jury. A further investigation took place on Monday, at the instance of the County Atgoruez. _ John Dundee, being sworn, said he? had lived with Mr. Jones from the end of February till about the 17th of Au-l gust. Had seen some confusion on the: wife’s part on account of him being jeal- ous. One night Mr Jones had been at Brown’s Mrs J. said if he was not in by . a certain time she would drown herself. 3 Witness advised her not to do it but she was desperate. She said she would takei her baby with her. Witness was afraid i if he went to look for Mr. Jones she} might do it cre he got back. Mr Jones? came in and the sfi'air passed by. An- other evening, Mr. Jones, witness and others had been at an election meeting. l When witness came back Mrs. Jones? asked him where Mr. Jones was. Wit- ness thought he was home. Mrs. Jones? then commenced to tell him how Mr. Jones was jealous with Anthony Ford. 1 Was astonished to hear this, for he had l never seen any appearance of it. Mrs. Jones tapped him on the back and went: into the sitting room. He followed to hear what she had to say. She told him she did not want her sister inclawi from the States, who was there, to hear? it. She said she was so confined thatl she could not leave the house. One day l when working at the mill witness came ‘ in and Mrs. Jones met him. She said; “ Well John, I’m finished nowâ€"I’ve poisoned myself. He heard cats, and; he told me it was somebody I had hit.” I Mr Jones came in in a passion and said, i l “I’ll see to this.” He went out towards the stable. Witness came out, when . Jones jumped at him, and got him down . and said he would put an end to him.l He had seen enough last night. This; was bees Mrs. Jones sat on a bench beside me llin me about Mrs. Brown , being up these. be same evening, talk- 3 in; about him and her separating, wibi ness said to Mr. Jones, "I will go to the old man. I am willing to clear myself.” Jones said to me, “I’ll meet you somel ,lne morning.” Expected he meant to 'put an end to him. Mrs. Jones told = witness that Jones was jealous of Aug ‘thony Ford. Believes Mrs. Jones told; him she had to take several oaths as to: o l I l THE DERBY MURDER INVESTI- GATION. Enwaan Swans, being sworn, said he had been working for Jones. 0n the day of the murder he was called to din. nor early, about 11 o’clock, because M r. Jones was going to town. It was about 12 o’clock when he came out after din- ner. Did not remember whether he or Mr. Jones left the table first. Could not say how soon after dinner Mr. Jones went to town. A little boy and girl told me about the murder between four and five o’clock. Never saw or knew of any unpleasantness at Jones’s. Never saw a revolver about there. Was told by Mrs. Jones that a boy had taken away the revolver. Believe it was in harvest when he was told so. Mary Hunter, said she lived at J ones’s. Remembered the day Ford was shot. Had dinner at half past eleven that day, because Mr. Jones was going to town. Mr. Jones went down into the cellar at 10 o’clock, and was working there until dinner was ready. Heard hiin‘hammer- ing at boards all the time. After din- Mr. Jones went out and harnessed the horses. He and Mrs. Jones went to town. Matilda Gourley was at school that day, she and Mr Jones went to see Ford in t-he evening, after Mr Jones came back from town. Never knew of any unpleasantness at Jones’s. Mrs J ones,wife of S. A. Jones said there had never been any jealousy betwv: :1 her and her husband. Never told Mrs. Brown that Anthoy Ford ought to be shot. On the day of the murder, Mr. Jones went to the saw-mill about some lumber between eight and nine o’clock. Came back about nine. Worked around a little, then went down into the cellar about ten o’clock to fix up some potato bins. Heard him working there from that until dinner time. Had dinner about half-past eleven. After dinner Mr Jones went and harnessed the horses then he came in and washed and dressed himself. Got into town about one o’clock and heard of the murder from Wm. Maxwell. The first witness heard of jealousy was from John Dundas, who came home drunk one evening, and told her that Mrs Brown said she (Mrs. Jones,) was jealous of Mr Jones and her daughters. Dundas was discharged for his impertinenec to witness. Dundas said something to her about Ford, but she didn’t remember what it was. Jones had no pistols since his father went to the park lot, in June or July last. Has often seen paper lying around loose. M r Jones had given paper to Chambers. Thinks he gave him some note paper and yellow envelopes two or three times. Witness had sometimes cried about the stories she heard about herself. Mr. Jones never locked her up in a room. Remembers locking herself up once when the nurse girl was bothering her about the baby. Never had any domestic troubles. 0 U... Wm. Maxwell testified to meeting Jones and his wife in town on the day of the murder. He looked at Bookless’ clock, and it was four minutes to one. Ford was brought to witness’s father’s place after he was shot. It was fifteen or twenty minutes after they found him till they got him into the house. \\'it- ness stsyed about half an hour, then came into town. Jones came to see Ford that evening. Does not remember whether he was speaking to Ford. Wan.

Then, again, the portion :of the proposed Central route lying between. Orangeville and Toronto is already under charter to the Orangeville Tram Railway Company, and it is not {likely that this Company, after com- .meneing the construction of this road, iwill he likely to abandon its rights I for a Central phantom which may never lhe built. Indeed, from whatever point ‘we view the Central scheme, it does gnot appear to us to possess any of the ‘elemeuts necessary; and though its agitation should he continued for a few imontha longer, and though it should éeren succeed in obtaining a charter, lnerertheless, we may dismiss from our §minds all idea of its ever being built. l - Orangeaflh Sun. ’her being innocent with Anthony Ford. E Remembers Mrs. Jones being locked up gone night. Miss Gourle was present, 'the first time that Mrs. ones was telo: ling witness about jealousy. Mrs Jones? i talked to him about Anthony Ford look-1 I iing through the window, and ofl'eredj ; him the best plug of tobacco he ever had gif he would pick something out of An. ; thony Ford and tell her. Witness nev- ler saw anything on Jones’ part to make , him believe he was jealous. Never heard him say anything about Anthony Ford. iWhen Jones had fuss with witness he assked him what Mrs. Jones was telling ' him. Witness told him Mrs Jones said he was jealous with Anthony Ford.â€" .lones denied that there was anything of ' the sort. After the fuss about the poi- i soning, witness said he would go because ' he did not think it was a safe place ; Jones said “Johnny, it is not a safe place f for you at any rate.” He said some of E the little ones told him that witness had 2 been seen in a room with his wife. This lwas because she sat on a bench beside Ehim. Witness left that night. Had Z seen old Jones lately, who told him there i was a subpoena out for him, and said he Ineed not talk about what happened be- tween him and Sam, as that was their own business. Witness kept out of the way on urpose during the investiga tion. Kisser saw or heard of any cool- ,ness between Jones and Ford. When , Mrs. Jones told him of jealousy he said ‘ he thought it was her who was jealous. iDid not think Jones was jealous. Nev- ." 911739? “is!“ 0f i}- _ With so little support'aad encourage. ment from the country, it is no wonder that the agitation of the Central should have become a heavy drag on the hands of Mr. Laidlaw and that he should deem some great effort necessary to receive the fallen horns of his pro. jcct, and create some little feeliag in its favor just before Parliament is re. quested to charter it. Accordingly, a scheme, which promised some success in this respect, occured to his ingenious mind; a subscription list ‘was hawked about the city of Toronto, and asufii cieut sum raised to defray the expenses of afew miles of the survey from Orange- ville, from which place a small en- gineering party set out on Wednesday last, to explore the different steppes, and passes in the mountains of Caledon. Surveys of the Central line have been so often made between Toronto and Owen Sound that the present attempt will occasion no great surprise. If the occurrence were less common, it might be invested with some importance and from it “simple country folk” might be led to regard the construction of the railway as certain; but when the same pe0ple have lived to see-no less than ten surveys of the same line within the last fifteen years, and a charter allowed to expire without the turning of a sod, the appearance of a bevy of engineers can occasion no great sur- prise. ' There are at present no less than three competing schemes afloat for building railways to grey and Bruce. There is first the Grey do Simeoe line, from Angus to Durham; next, the Wellington, Grey 8t Bruce Railway, from Guelph to Owen Sound; and last, the Narrow Guage Central, from Toronto, via Orangeville and Walker- ton, to Owen Sound, warranted, when built, to carry passengers and freight at the rapid speed of ten miles an hour! a speed quite as great as is consistent with safety on a road of 3 feet 6 inches 8“??? . Mr John' Shutter Smith, of Port Hapc, has been offered the judgeohip of the County of Hulmn,but has dc- clincd to acccpet it. our Lady the Quczn, her Cr'owu and dignity." Tun good pcOple of this section of the Dominion are now receiving a large share of the attention of out- side parties, who are anxious to build them a cheap railway in order to secure all the advantages to be derived from a monopoly of their trade, and, perhaps, some immediately pecuniary benefit from xthe construction of the road.
