It appears that there are peoplo amongst us who think that we need not trouble ourâ€" selves about doing anything for the Teronâ€" to, Grey & Bruce road, inasmuch as if the present Company were to ceass operating it, the Grand Trunk would quickly take it up. â€" If those "mistaken souls" had only been present at the recent Grand Trunk meeting, which was held in London on the 80th October, they would be of a different opinion. â€" Traffic is improving, and one of the most competent railway men in the world, Sir Henry Tyler, is now doing his best to retrieve the fortunes of the Grand Trunk. He is meeting with quite asmuch snecess as anybody could have expected, bus a tremendous l.evw:vy has to be made up, and it will take long and vigorous pulâ€" ling to recover lost ground. There are the chronic difficuliies of twenty years to recover from, as well as the very "bad times" of tue last four yeurs. Not only the President in England, but the Execuâ€" tive of the road in Canads, appear now to be doing as well as mortal men can do, in the interests of the roud. But the task before them is such a gigantic oneâ€"that of bring:ng the roa l out of the old difficulties, and new ones togetherâ€"tLat on the most favourable view wauich can be taken, years must elapse ere it can be performed.

Dedication of the New Methoâ€" dist Church, Flesherton. church was well filled, and could scarcely have accommodated any more with seats. The Rev. A. Browning, who labored in this circuit nineteen years ago, gave out the 478th hymn, the Rev. Mr. Irwin led in preyer. . After the Choir had suug "Who is Like unto Thee," the .15th chapter of Luke was read, and explained in a very impressive raanner. . The 479th bymn was than @1ng. Rev. Mr. Browning gave out| for 1is s>xt the 12th verse, 66th chapter of On Sabbath morning last, the 18th inst., the opening services in connection with the dedication oft the new Methodist Church, in the village of Flesherton, took place. The doors of the church were opened at ten o‘clock, and by half past, the building, which will seat about 500, was comfortably filled, and but for the rougha _ state of â€" the roads, _ mno _ doubt _ would have been crowded to excess. No services were held in Markdale during the day, and a large number from that village were prosent at the various services. The Rev. | Dr. R;yerson, President of the General Conference, read a short Dedicatory Serâ€" vice, and then gave out the 540th hymn, and led in prayer. A very full Choir of excellent voices, under the leadership of Mr. Thos. Bolster,. Miss Bella Christse pres.ding at the organ, sang the "Dedicaâ€" tion Aunthera." The Rev A. Browning, of Uxbridge, then read from the 10th to the 19th verse, of the 20th Chap. 1st Chronâ€" icles, a fow verses of the Tth Chap. 2nd Chroumicles, and part of the 10th Chap. of Hebrews. The 679th hymn was next sung, after which Dr. Ryerson took for his text the 40th and 41st verses of the 6th Chapter of 2nd Chronicles : smbitionâ€"but to the spread of the Gospel, and to impart the highest blessings. The most magnificent and splendid offerings were not rcceptable to God without the ‘ spiritual offering. "God is a spirit and they that worship him must worship him ‘ in epirit and in truth." 1t was necessary that the heart, the inmost thoughts,should be in the worship to make it acceptable to \God. To worship seecptably must rely in the shedding of the precious blood of the Divine Redeemer, and trust in the Mighty Saviour, and a renunciation of sin, to seeure God‘s approbation. Secondlyâ€" "lHearing of prayer"â€"The speaker then went on to show that while private and family prayer were necessary, that public gathering together and public preyer were commended. That while God heard the prayer of the depressed, the contrite, and the weary and heavy laden one, he would look upon prayer for the family and houseâ€" hold, and tor the salvation of the nsighâ€" borhood, offered in the House of God. The liberties cnjoyed in this country were then referred , in comparison to the liberties enjoyed by the greater part of mankind, in former ages. The Houseof God was the house of prayer for all people, and the stranger should be heard wlen offering prayer in the House of God. The spread of Clristisn principles were the stability of the nation. "The Ark" and contents were beautifully deseribed, the "Cheruâ€" bims," emblems of ar invisible world, and the atonement and sacrifice of Christ for the sns of the world. The gospel proâ€" claimed the sinfulness of sin, and pointed out "an inheritance incorruptible and unâ€" defiled." _ It was the presence of God that gave the glory, "Arise, 0 Lord God, into Thy resting place." . 4thâ€"*"Let thy pricste, O Lord God, be elothed â€" with saivation." Salvation signified a state of mind. No man could preach properly, without exâ€" periencing repentance, and having felt the power of God‘s grace ; in proof of which a number of Seriptural quotations wore igivâ€" en, showing the constant manifestations of Gods favor, and that the people could enjoy these blessings, and enter into this Spiritaal power, that God was the same toâ€"day, and that it was theirs to "rejoice in great gooduess." _ The rev. gentleman conâ€" eluded an eloquent sermon by an eloquent appeal for contributions of love for Christ‘s coil80. The Trustees of the church were then assembled around the altar, and respondâ€" ed to their part in the dedicatory service. ‘The 736th hymn was then sung, and the morning service brought to a close. The Choir then sang "How Beautiful upon the Mountains." "Now my God, let, I beseech Thee, Thine eyes be opened, and let Thine ears be attent unto the prayer th at is made in this place. _ Now, therefore, arise, O Lord God, into thy resting place, thou, : nd the urk of thy strength: let thy priests, 0 Lord God, be clothed with salvation, and let thy saints rejoice in gooduess." The jev. gentleman then went on to show how the Jewish Nation, as early as the time of Abraham, was set apart to esâ€" tablish the pure worship of the Living God, that the wanderings of the Children of Isâ€" rarl in the wilderness was only another step in the fulfillment of God‘s purposes, but no Temple was built for God‘s service until the time of Solomon. It was in David‘s heart to build an house for the worship of God, but, although ho contribâ€" uted in a most liberal manner, immense troeasures, and the people in lika manner of their substance, yet while David was God‘s servant, having been a man of war, the wars being undertaken at God‘s comâ€" mand, David was not permitted to build the Temple ; thus showing God‘s heart of tenderness towards the whole people. Solomon, David‘s son, had to do this work, which was an example and encouragement to us, and drew attention to the comâ€" modious building in which they were then assembled, and asked the people with him to lift up their hearts to God in prayer. The text chosen was composed of five peâ€" titions, the first, "Now, my God, let, I beâ€" seech thee, Thine eyes be open." flis hearers cou‘!d see and understand the moâ€" tives as well as the wordsâ€"not motives of At half past two o‘clock, the time for Opening Services. AFTERNOON. MORNING. "Aund many of the Samaritens of that city believed on him for the saying of the woman, which testified *He told me ail that ever I did.‘ Andmany more believed beenuse of his owa word; and said unto the woman, *Now we believe, not because of thy saying ; for we have heard him ourâ€" selves, nad know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of tue World.‘" The speaker pointed out the two kinds of faith contained in the textâ€"many beâ€" lieved because of what was told themâ€" and many for hearing for themselves. Caildren h id faith byfhearing, teaching, ote. from their mother, the minister, and othâ€" ere, and had no recollection of a period when they doubted. This kind of fuith lay at the foundation of domestie enjoyâ€" ment, was the faith of & great many peoâ€" ple and learned men, without entering into the evidences of Christianity, but was of the greatest importance. Not a judge would _ admit a witness that â€" denied ‘ God. This faith binds society together and gives security to property,. Sweep away God‘s Book and whore was all the law _ and order? _ Life and property would be at stuke. This faith constitutes the very basis of all law, but yet was defecâ€" tive. It was a mere exercise of mindâ€"a& mere mental processâ€"and did not accomâ€" plish anything higher than control the life and actions, and one having this faith might not be a pardoned sinner, There were many honorglle and moral men, and professed â€" Christians and imembers of Churches who had this faith. There was a higher faithâ€"experienced by ourselves. ‘The Saviour does not appear to have wrought any miracles among the Samariâ€" tans, but to have taught them. One of the first stops in the higher faith was reâ€" peutenceâ€"mental distress and montal sorâ€" row, felt in the heart. The remembrance of sins was grievous, and the danger was feit. "Godly sorrow worketu repentance usto life." ‘The Lamb of God was pointed out. â€" They must look to him like the poor woman who had been afllicted 18 years. lie spoke of the great change realized. Of giving way to passion, yet could go to the Dirine Physician, When in possession of the higher :‘».i;h, the tastes are changed; "Old things were passed away, and all things are become as new." Jesus was the chief of ten thousand and the one alâ€" together lovely ; and one having this faith could realize that this is the Clhrist, the Saviour of the world, and brought forth a number of Scriptural quotations in proof of his assertion. ‘The Christian in possesâ€" sion of this faith could lock death in the fuce without a quiver, and triumiph over it. There was a vast difierence between faith by hearing, and faith by experience. This latter faith euabled a man to look at things invisible because he felt it. faith came down to the lowest capacity, and was an evidence of Christianity to every heart, He asked in conclusion which faith was realized by his hearers,and if they beiieved in the pardon of their sins, and adoption iuto Gou‘s fumily. The poâ€" session of this knowleuge passed all price. h In the evening the church was again crowded. ‘The 826th hbhyrun was sung. Rev. Mr. Galloway, of Markdale, led in prayer. The Choir sang "Before Jehovah‘s Awful Throue." Dr. Ryerson read the 19th Psalm, aiter which he gave a beaut â€" ful explanation of the laws of nature, and of God. The 827th hyun was then given out, after the singing of which, Rev. Dr. Ryerson took for his text the 80th, 41st, and 42nd verses of the 4th chapter of 84. John. EVENING. ‘ The speaker then spoke of his own converâ€" PM e e in olatuke have mew : SBIB : We After the evening services were over, a prayer meeting was held, which lasted till ten o‘clock, and was attended by a large number of people. The prayer meeting was conducted by Rev. Mr. Browning. Four or five young persors expressed themselves as having found peace with God. About thirty appeared as anxious seckers.

W. Frost. Mr. Frost seems to take thea matter goodâ€"hoamoredly, for he breaks out into postry, and in a clever punning ef. fusion which he has since displayed in his window mbove the bresk, intimates that ho knows who did it, and by naeme indicates mh.lhq-udlnm-flnnngy ones. Being thus publicly branded us the perpetrators, they must either take action agninst Mr. Frost for libel, or allow it to be inferred that they wre guilty, Dut this was a trivial matter compared to what followed on Thursday night. On Frigay morning our citizens whopassed down Union street, noticed the door of t e office of Mr. Spenâ€" eer, Police Magistrate, cut up with sugur holes, there being at deast ten or a dozen all sground the lock, evidently with the inten> tion of breakiug into the office. The door, however, did mot appest as if it lind leen opened, but it was afterwards discovered that the party or purties had obtzined acâ€" eess by another way, and carried of Mr, Bpencer‘s magistrates‘ book, together with some other books. â€" Not content with robâ€" biug the Police Mlgi.*u'uh! of his hm»ku, they also broke into the Police Court, and earried off all the books and records of the offece they could lay their hands on, inâ€" eluding a number of valuable documents |\the private property of the Clerk, even taking the Bible on which witnesses are sworn. _ No clue has yet been found to the perpetrators, but from the fact of both Poâ€" lice Court and Magistrate‘s Office being |vi.~itud. the conclusion is irresistible that the felony was commiited in the interest of some of those who had liquor cases pendâ€" ingâ€"the evident intention being to destroy | all record of the cases, and thus stop the wheels of justice. 11 this weas the intenâ€" ‘ tion, they were foiled, for the Pohce Maâ€" gistrate had taken the documents connectâ€" ied with the liquor triwls home with him, | to prepare his judgment.

Information Leving been sworn to before one of the magistrates of East wurey thst, Detective Benner had comumitted perjury in connection with one of the liqnor case« tried there, a warraut was issued (or his arrest, and a constable despatcled to exeâ€" euse it. One would think that those who are avowedly working in the iuterests of law and morality would give every tucility for theâ€" investigation of a seripus charge like thisâ€"if they had confidence in the inâ€" nogence of the Detective they could cusily bail him; or at all events they could be certain that no harm would happen to him, and it would be & serious matter for ns accuser, if the charge proved to be groundâ€" lose, â€" But instead of taking this straightâ€" forward course, Inspector Poares goes off to the Polico Magistrate, and although Benner is living at his house, and erideutly acting in concert with him in all these eases, swears to an information that he does not believe he will anpeor as s witness unless compelled to do so, and gets a warâ€" rent to arrest him on that ground, on the strength of which prior arrest he resiststu0 arrest for perjury! We know nothing of the merits of the case against Benner, they will be determined in due course; but this we are ceriain of, that when those who are charged with carrying out the liqnor laws, and consequently are mssociated in the public mind with the temperance moveâ€" ment, instead of facilitating the adminisâ€" tration of justice, resort to sharp practice and disreputable dodges apparently to preâ€" vent the arrest of a man mccused of a serious crime, the spectacle is one which cannot fail to damage any movement they are connected with, and we are sure canâ€" not be approved by reasonable temperance men throughout the county, Just now it would appear as i the temperance cause had as much to fear from injudicious champions as from opea encmics. the olenaers, itis h yet be found out, and in the penitentiary to inal conduct.
