VINDICATOR. To the Editor of the York Commonwealth.' Editorâ€"Sir : In ybuf editorials to yttttng ttieh I have noticed that you frequently deplore the want of good debating schools, and at the same time allilde to those now in action. As 1 know but one place near here where dis- cussions are held ou various suhjects, it seems to me that you intend your remarks for it. Happening to know a little about that society, 1 w ish to inform you, that in it are 110 men yet •out of their teens, tha.t there are none who talk trash and twaddle, iand that leading men do not altogether stand aloof from it, but, on the HrOturary, we have some young men who ’tctuallly do talk sense, and aro ashamed of twaddling, and some old men who are con- â- eiderod equal in intelligence and talent with <&uy in the county. But, Mr. Editor, notwithstanding what we know we still find ourse Ives deficient in many respects, and would suggest that you devote an article on the proper manner of forming and conducting a good Debating Club, wh ich I assure you will be perused with pleasure by your correspondent ' ALIXES, Richmond Hill, Dec. 2lst, 1858. THE NORTHERN RAILWAY. From the Globe. The Speech of Mr. Cumberland in the Board ot Trade yesteiday reveals a very pretty slate of allairs between the Govern- ment and the Northern Railway direc- tion. Cayley and Macdonald have evi- dently been systematically humbugging the managers ol the road and their friends in Parliament, with promises of assistance, aid have left them m the lurch at the last. It has been the same with all enterpiises of a like kind ; too weak and too corrupt to take the straightforward course and re- fuse aid, they have been keeping the rail- way in a state of beggary, waiting for as- sistance which they never intended to ren- der. There never was a more melan- choly spectacle of mismanagement and ex- travagance, ol weakness and corruption, than is presented by Mr. Cumberland's spee h. T.ie company has been running into debt to the Government over thirty thousand pounds a year, and the Ministry have never had the courage to sit down and consider seriously what they should do with an enterprise so situated, and which was, in addition, an applicant for further assistance. Th^y were afraid, probably, that Mr. Angus Morrison would desert them, or perhaps Mr. Tom Ferguson might have kicked up his heels, so they stood by, and suffered the enterprise to sink into irretrievable diflicultie*. They did taka a step in the right direction by introducing a bill empowering them to .foreclose their mortgage on the road, but IVlr. Cumberland tells us that they were frightened into withdrawing it ! Mr. An- gus Morrison threatened to go over to George Brown rather than suffer such a thing to be done, and what could the min- istry say after that ? The defection ofan Upper Canadian would have been ruin, and they submitted, as a matter of course. What mattered it that, half a million of public money was at stake 1 Did not their salaries also depend upon it, and bow could they hesitate ? The blessings which (low from Sir Edmund Head's ad- ministration of public affairs are truly in- calculable ! What a loss he will be when he goes ! Mr. Cumberland, and the Board of Trade, and the City Council, are, we pre- sume, going in a body to the Government to get something done. It is said, in fact, that Galt is to do something, but what that something is nobody can gue*s, and it is certain that Galt will have as much trouble in managing the Government sup- porters as Mr. Cayley had. The minis- try are even less able now than they were last session to take up a difficult question, and settle it in a complete and satirfactory manner. The Northern Pvailway. â€" Dep- utations from the town council ot Barrie, Bradford and Collingwood arrived in Toronto yesterday, and put themselves in communication with the directors of the Northern Railway, with a view to the adoption ot measures for keeping open the road during this winter. The order ot the Inspector of Railways has produced quite a consternation among the people in the north, who have called pub- lic meetings in most ot the towns along the line of to take the matter into serious consideration. Trains will be run to-day for the last time under the present arrange- ments.-- Globe of 21st. Great Dog Fight.â€"The “ Fancy” had a great time of it on Monday last. Emulous, doubtless, of the notoriety ac- quired by Morrisey and the Benicia Boy, the “ Fancy” of Hamilton and Toronto determined 011 a great fight, but on this occasion it was wisely resolvent that the animals to mangle and worry each other should be only bull-dogs. A Mr. John Martin, of Hamilton, who keeps a tavern and a bull-dog named Boney, and a Mr. somebody else of Toronto,â€"the proprietor of a bull -dog named “Crib”â€"entered in- to a solemn compact to make both dogs fight until one should be declared the win- ner. On this match the owners of the respective dogs staked $100 aside. The place selected for the fight was in the vicinity of Vine’s tavern, on the Don and Dauforth Road. Here a large pit/ was built specially for the occasion, and some three hundred persous assembled on Mon- day last. Boney and crib were led into the pit muzzled, an 1 wea’ing heavy blan- kets. In addition to the dogs, the pit was occupied hy their respective owners, two backers, and a time keeper. The muz- zles and blankets having been carefully re- moved, Boney airl Crib rushed at each other fiercely, and a series of the most sanguinary bitings, tossings and yelpings took place for fifteen minutes, when ac- cording to agreement both dogs, were separated, and their muzzles sponged by the seconds. At the close of this round heavy bets were offered against Crib, with some acceptances. Time having been declared up, Crib and Boney again closed, raising the excitement of the beholders lo the highest pitch. “ Shake him, Crib !” and “ Finish him, Boney !” resoundedon all sides, and, according to the most au- thentic accounts it was only with the greatest difficulty a few of the spectators could be prevented from shaking and fin- ishing one another. At length alter an- other quarter of an hour Crib was so com- pletely finished that he hadn’t a leg to stand onâ€"and Boney was declared the winner, by which slight circumstance Bo- rry’s master pockets $100, in addition to his stakes.â€" Toronto Patriot. A Grist Mill Buhnkd in King.â€" Wo are intormed by Mr, Joseph Wood, of the town- ship of King, that Mr. Stokos’ Grist Mill 011 lot 3 seventh con. of that township, has been burned to the ground. It was observed to be on fire on Thursday morning,and the fire spread wtih such rapidity that it was impossible to save any part of the property, except the water- wheel, which was preserved by the .vater being turned upon it. There was as much as 1,500 or 2,000 bushels of wheat in the mill at the time, some of it belonging to Mr. Stokes, and the rest to farmers in the vicinity. Last year some £300 worth-or repairs had been put upon it. The loss is estimated at £5,000, none of which-is insured, the insurance having expired three-months since, Much sympathy is felt with Mr. Stokes in liis calamity. The hands employed in tho mill had ieft it the previous evening about five o’clock, and, as there had been no fire in the stoves on account of the mildness of the weather, strong suspicions are entertained that the fire was the work of an incendiary.

Taking into consideration the hard times, and being determined to advance the pros- perity of the community in which we live; and believing as we certainly do, that a Village is judged by parties at a distance by the Ad- vertisements that appear in the columns of its Newspaper, and being very desirous of offer- ing every inducement in our power to Mer- chants and others to Advertise, we have de- termined to Reduce our Advertising rates to as low a Fgure as we can possibly afford.â€" Our groat object is, to encourage liberal adver- tising, as this branch of Business is tho main stay to all Printing Establishments. Our readers will at once perceive that it is utterly impossible to advertise at lower rates than we give below If we did, we should not be able to carry on the paper ; for no one (not even printers) can be expected to work for nothing. However, we hope that all those who desire to encourage a Village Newspaper will advertise liberally, and then while we shall be benefited ihey themselves will be even more so by an licrease of business,â€"the invariable result o advertising.

Yoimg Menâ€"Take Particular Notice. There is an evil habit sometimes indulged in by boys, in solitude, often growing up with them to .manhood, and which, if not reformed by them in duo time, not only begets serioua' obstacles to matrimonial happiness, but gives rise to a series of protracted, insidious, an<J devastating affectiens. Few of those who give way to this pernicious practice aro aware of the consequences, until they find tho nervous svstem shattered, foel strange and unaccouuta- , ble feelings, and vague foars in the mind.
