How long are we to be without the luxury of a street crossing? “'0 need such conveniences badly. Can not the ‘ powers that be’ do something in this way to add to the respectability of the village, and save the boot hluehinnr of the inhabitants. The present means of mu vel and transit from one wealthy and populous township to another are really a reproach to us, and a very dirty one at that. Without injury to the other. Ant C'a'sar nut null/Ls, will serve as a mom) for neither. The publie good, social and financial, should be the first consideration and that may be cared for without the County buildings being located either in. the Era or in the Herald ofiiuc. That the Northern half of the County would be benefitted more by a separation from the Southern half, than by a separ- ation of the whole County from the city, has never been shown, nor ever can be ; but that the Southern half would suffer severely by the former scheme, is self evident, since it would be left liable as ever to the same expense and incon- venience, and have still less chance the 1 at present, of having its grievances re- dressed. - \Ve commend to our Northern friends a more reasonable view and a more gen- erous policy. Local interests and jealâ€" ousics shoulc be kept out of sight. ’l'hey divide and weaken us, and if” not subor- dinated, will work out certain defeat to both parties. To avoid this, let us work together for ‘he one projectâ€"the greater and better one of sepa 'zxtion from the city. If that fails, then each secâ€" tion Cull choose its own course of action, When it has been shown by fair trial that a separation of the whole County cannot be obtained, it will be time enough for a part to urge secession. Until then its advocacy is obstructive, 311d damag- ing to the general interes County separation then will be no benefit to the North, and a certain injury to the South. Separation of the whole from the city, will be an indispu- table benefit to both. flunk! Journal has done. better service than the Era in exposing the heavy pecuniary loss the County is sub- ject to from its connection with Toronto, and by none has the only certain remedy, that of separation, been more clearly pointed out. From the eonlinued silence of our Newmurket contemporary, anent the County business, we are led to believe that he is at last convinced of the error of his ways, and is determined to offer no further opposition to our reasonable demands for separation. ‘Vhatever may be the anxiety felt by our clever friend to effect such an arrangement as would be a. local benefit, we are satisfied he will never become the mere mouth piece of a local party, opposing the best interests of the County as a whole, to forward those of a particular village. éfiflflm‘fi, SUBSCRIBE FOR The York.

The presence and assistance ofall those who feel interested in the matter is re- spectfully solicited. This praiseworthy movement is, or should be, deeply interâ€" Csling t0 the inhabitants of the Village, and vicinity, and should be promptly supported. Said Committee will meet in the Tom- perance Hall 011 this (Friday) evening at 8 RM. At the meeting held in Van Nostraan Hall, on Monday Evening last,a temporâ€" ary committee was» formed; to take mans: ures for the reorganization of the Insti- tute, with a View of holding a series of Reunions, and procu‘ring a course of Lee- tunes during: the coming winter. Trade is improving â€"Elsewhereâ€"that is to say in Toronto, and in the townS and villages north and south of us. Large quantities of‘ produce pass by no claily, and many a heavy purse passes by us back again. \Vhy is not more publicity given to the fact that the Richmond Hill merchsints have goods, which in variety, ol10apness= and” quality are not to be ex culled. Cim not an effort be made to seem-e Va liirger'share of the county and. general trade. ' And what means better. calculated to do this than-a liberal system of advertising? Rely upon it, it pays handsomely. Try it friends and you‘ will have our most cordial assistance". Let there be a full attendance at the meeting. ' Avrangemonts have been made to secure a full and impartial discussion of the whale question, and a lively time may be expected. \Ve are glad to hear also, that meet» ings are to be held shortly at Aurora, Markham Village, Maple, Thornhill, Burwiek, and other places,’ of which we will furnish intelligence as they tran- soirel This question is fast becomng the “topic” of the day, and the feeling in favor of separation is gaining ground apnea. It could scarcely be otherwise. The necessity is so great, and the advan. tages so evident, that the movement strongly commends itself to the intelliâ€" gence of' every one acquainted with the affairs oftlie County. IbriiMontiay evening 'next, for the purpose of considering the advisability of i'emov- ing the County busilleés from Toronto to a more central pizlce within the county. The principal organ of the Society in Dublin has been seized and its publish- ers apprehended, while a few vessels~a sort of fleet ofobsermtion, have been sta- tioned off the coast, awaiting evoxiis. Neither tyranny nor oppression exist, nor are a people so familiar with the bitâ€" ter lessons of the past, and now in pos- session of enhanced and increasing prosâ€" perity, due principally to longr internal peace and mild government likely to plunge themselves into the horrors of a civil war, at the solicitations of a few American renegades, who have nothing to otter in justification but an ideaâ€"n0- thing to offer in return but anarchy. All this has attracted the attention of the Government, and with a prudent fore. sight they have taken such measures, as will elfectually. we believe, prevent any serious demonstration. Already the principal known or declared leaders have been arrested. The police and military forces in the disaffected districts, have been increased. W'e have much pleasure in calling the attention of our readers to the public meeting to be: 31¢ at Victoria Square Under this firm and vigilant spirit, it is to be hoped that the blind and fana- tical enthusiasts who are fomenting this“ disturbance, will see the folly of precipiâ€" tating themselves upon certain min, and abandon the attempt. The whole force of the empire is against them, and what 1S more the hearts of the Irish people are not with them. ~ Late aesounts reveal a state of things truly alarmingvand threaten a serious interruption to the peace and prosperity of the country. Within the last year‘ the Fenian organization has been ramiâ€" ficd over almost the whole “rest and Southern provinces. Secreter drilled and equipped, and confident in numbers,- these fool hardy liberators, no longer make secret of their treasonable designs, but assemble in the Open day, commit breaches of the peace and defy the local authorities. Fenianism has broken loose at last. The scenes of the Cabbage garden seem likely to be enacted over again, and poor unfortunate Ireland about to be convulâ€" sed with civil discord, perhaps with ra- pine and slaughter by the machinations Ufa. fch disaffected, hair brained agita- tors, who dishonor the name 'sz patrioti 15m.

And I do not know but that {it would be the wisest thing that the British Government could do, were they to grant Ireland a local Parliament after the manner ofeur own. Of course7 I am prepared for the Objection that would be raised to granting the disaffected Irish people a privilage, which would have the effect of handing over to the Irish Jloman Catholics the entire con- trol of Irish aflairs; but with me such an objection does not hold good, for I do not believe that the major portion of the people are disloyal and disaffected. None have been more loyal to the thro e of England than the Roman Catho ‘e Landlordrfl and, with very few excep- tions, the Roman Catholic I’riests. And we know that these loyal cxponartts of Ireland, claim a local Porliamcnt, on the ground that it would remove the principle objection to the rule of the ‘Saxon.’ But, while I say this much on behalf of Ireland and her ment in agine that I am of opinion that there is the slightest excuse i'or the doâ€" ; ings of the Fenians in their armed resis- tance to the English Government, and I am sure that the course now being adopt- ed by Lord Palmerston’s Government is the most merei. al that can be desi ,d. of the leaders, so far as they are known, ‘ and the placing of a sufficient armed ity of a success ill rising. To the Fe- ardly imitators the Hibernians in Cana- da, are we indebted for th"s last act of Irish folly, and it is a great pity that the filtlllonry’s, Aluojfltgfs and all other [{eau Utntrcs, could not be brought lyl I l a, ‘ i Within the reach of the hemp.

Griflin, declares Hamilton to be the New Jerusalem, and the Mountain, near \Vaterwwn‘, to be the Mount of Olives. In addition to this,-‘ and several peculiar writings of the Sa- cred Scriptures, it contains some very grave charges against the Hon. John A. Mac‘donald, George Brown, \Villia'u Mc- Dougall, and Mr. It eorder Start, of Hamilton. Many of these charges are so gross and. disgustingr that would not think of placing them on‘ paper; So great was the excitement caused On‘ its' appearance, that the’ whole issue was soon bought up and as hiO’i as $2 offered for a single number. “w mu rm. uJ “uwuui 1r. nuns; :HI‘IULF up, so we will have a splendid party tightrâ€" In these du 's when party spirit is so near dead. it is quite refreshing" to have so nethng to wan our blood and to throw some life into the body political.

Such is the case just now with a little town or “ hamlet,” situated in the western part of Canada, and called London. A place, whose founders had not originality enough to give it a name, without filehing the title which it now bears, is not likely to do anythingr to command admiration.â€" Sho‘uld such a place become known he aond its own limits) it will be for some yet so contemtihle that it must needs be rotieed. London mismanach the Pro- vincial F:‘1ir,;zrossly insulth the tarmers of Canada, and slighted the President 01' the Agricultural Association. With such a record against it, we would naturally suppose7 that for a time at least long enough for such things to be f'm'gotten“ the people of that place would be slow to intrude themselves into notice. In that We are mistaken. \Vhat would besensi- ble in other places, would be eggregious folly in a place like London. So We are threatened with a “' Western; figricul- tural Association,” in opposition to our Provincial Association. A preliminary meeting has been held and a committee appointed to make the necessary arrange- ments for the Annual Meetng of the “restem Association, in London, on such years as the Provincial Association is not held in that city. I very much mistake the spirit of the farmers of Canada, and especially those oft-his section, if they do not. resist all attempts to take the Pro- vincial Fair to London again. and Boyle, in this city, and the foolisn parade made by the Hibernians on the evening of the fifth of lust November, has in consequence of the doings in Ire- land, been brought under the notice of the Government, and I understand that t'igorus measures will be taken to bring the career of some of these gentry to a ter- mination. The names of the members of the Hiberniaan or Fenian Lodges in Toronto, Dundas, Richmond Hill, &d;, have been in possession of the Govern- ment Detectives for some time, and the leaders in these localities are generally knOWn. Some leading and inflmam’iul gentlemen in your locality, as Well as some in other places, are likely to obtain an unenviab‘le notoriety one of these fine days. Whatever may be the grieve- an‘e’es of Ireland, one thing is pretty certain, there is not a particle of excuse for such treasonable doings in Canada, Where all men enjoy equal privilages, and it is not liker we are going to toler- ate a nest of sworn conspirators and secret traitors in our midst.
