Mr. Metca‘lfehas come forward as a candidate for the sufl‘rages of the people ; he has been, for several years, angling for the position; and has, by his monied infiuence,'mamged to supplant an honest straightforward farmer, who served the l’iidinrbr thilhfully, fol; the past six teen years, and has at last succeeded in getting himself into that pesition which subjects him, or any other person simi larly situated, to public criticism; if he, or his friends, expect that the intelligent farmers of the East Ridingr 01' York will consent to take for granted that, because Mr. Metcnlfe has come back from Australia with money, and has, by the influence which accompanies the possessâ€" ion ofweulth, become a director of a newly cstublished'hank, he, as a matter of" course, 1s the man to be entrusted with their interesfi in the House of Commons, we are of opinion they know but little of' that constituency. True, the l'lonfDavid Recsor went to Toronto and professed to make some enquiries respecting Mr. Metcall'e's antecedents; and subsequently assured such of the electors as were present at a political meeting a few weeks ago, when they supplanted Mr. Amos Wright to secure the nomination of Metealfe and Cresby, that Mr. Metealfe was not what he was reported to be; we know how much value to place on Mr. Reesor's certificate of character, after his laudutions of Mr. H. P Crosby, whom he (Mr. Reesor) pronounced to be the u‘iost honest man he ever knew. The Leader of the 26th inst, announâ€" ces that Mr. R. A.

R. Gowan did not figure so prominently as his “ best man” on the occasion; there is no concealing the fact that Mr. Gomxn's advocacy is‘ not‘cah culuted to forward Mr. Wallis’ cause. If it is true, as Mr. Vance stated, that. Mr. Wallis is a modest man, we are inclined to think that he is in a way to lose his fair fame. We would be glad to see Messrs. Harrison and Wallis elected ; we have reason to believe they are worthy men, and are qualified for the position7 but it is not. an Indication of success to see Mr. Gowan coming for‘ ward as one of the chief sponsors of the ticket.

If our numerous readers desire to en- joy aheartyluugh, we would suggest that they read a communication in an- other column of cur paper, signed “ A Grit.’ When we first looked at it, and read about forty or fifty lines, we be- gan to imagine we had a. Boanerges to encounter; as we proceeded furth- er on, we began to recover our self- possession, and when we reached the end we found that our nerves were in a. more salubrious state, as the whole thing, when boiled down, amounted to nothing that required from. us serious consideration. 'I here is neither an atlaCk upor‘i’iur prin- ciples nor the defence of a principle throughout the whole; which, by the way, is exceedingly long-winded. The burthen of‘ grit’s letter appears to be a miserable attempt to praise ‘Messrs Metcalfe and Crosby. It is not necessary that we should repeat here what we have already, in another column, said in regard to Mr. Mctcalfe; and ifwe were disposed'to Waste our ammunition, our want ofspace forbids the indulgence of' so extravagant a luxury; itwill ansWer all good purposes, by referring the “Grit” correspondent to our arguments, under the head of VVhat-are we‘to min]: of the Bf’oiwn candidate for the Local: Legislature.

'1 On Monday the 24th inst, being the Festival of'St. John the Baptist, the brethren of the mystic tie, belonging to “Richmond Lodge,” No. 23 of the Grand Register of Canada. assembled at their Lodge Room, for the purpose of lionoringthe day, and installing oflieers for the ensuing year, they are : Bro.

After the installation, and attendant ceremonies, known only to the initiated, the brethren adjourned from labour to refreshment; about forty-five or fifty good menwand true sat down to a most excellent repast, prepared by Brother Gideon “Dolmage; after doing justice to the good things before them, and spending an hour or $0 in'social and brotherly conversiation, they adjourned to their Lodge-room, at Mr: Robert Ferris‘ Hotel, and then dispersed; happy to meet, sorry to part, happy to meet again. The members of Richmond Lodge were assisted in the arduous la- bours of the day, by a number of breth; ren from Vaughan and Thornhill. “Very ilreene.” We are inclined to think that Mr. Crosby's case is already clearly dealt with, in regard to the why in which he has manipulated the ’l‘r'wns ’ship School funds.

J. Dick met at his residence, for the purpose of presenting him with an address, on the eve ofhis departure on a short visit to Scotland. They availed themselves of this opportunity of presenting the reverend gentleman with a well filled purse. Mr. Dick has laboured for the spiritual comfort of his” people in this place, for about eighteen years, without intermission ; and has endeared himself to all who enjoy the pleasure of his acquain- tance. We wish him a pleasant journey to his native land ; and hope that providence will guard and protect him, and enable him to return to his family and his numerous friends here with renewed vigour to pursue his labours. He sails from Quebec today. The crops of Vaughan and Markham Townships are promising well. The re- freshing rain that fell on' Wednesday has ddne much to raise- the prospect of an abundant harvest. We learn that a requisition is in cir- culation, with a View to induce Mr. T. A. Milne to come out as a candidate for the representation of East York, in the House of COmmons, in opposition to the anti-coalition nominee; if Mr. Milne will accept, we have reason to believe he will carry the Riding triumph- antly through the contest. From all quarters, we learn that the Metealfe- Crosby ticket is distasteful to the el- ectors. ‘ ‘ ' Don Quixotte Redth’rus! H. P. Crosby still silent. Rev. James Dick- Free Masons. EAST YORK. CROPS. “ To Hort Majesty then Victoria Whereas the Confederation Act has not been tested by experience, and whereas years 'must elapse before we know whe- ther it is suited. to our requirements, and as such a test' may be expensive, and not only that but dangerous to the stability and order of British institutions in this country, we therefore humbly beg to inform Your Majesty, that we have discovered in our midst, a person hitherto obscure rand unknown, whose mind is so constituted that if the Con- federation Aet is passed through it, we will find the same results that a test of years would bring forth” What does he mean by the “,lights of justice” in this connection ? ‘When he penned that his mind got into some dark labyrinth, and as I have not the same “ light” to guide me, I dare not attempt to follow him here; No doubt, it has some deep and hidden meaning. He says, “ We shall not-attempt to commend our friends to the electors by vilif'ying our oppo- nents &c,” and then goes on to vilify 'Mr. Metcalfe and Mr. Crosby. It seems to come natural to him to “ vilify." It is said “ use is second nature.” Does “ Junius” consider it a ’light thing to attempt to destroy a man’s good name? He may answer that nobody will be- lieve what he says. True, Mr. Junius, but does that lesson your guilt ? Against Mr. Metcalfe and M r. Crosby you have made insinuations that effect their personal honour and honesty,andyou are bound to m'ake'good your charges If Mr. Metcalfe and Mr. Crosby are what you insinuaterthe electors should know it, and they should have the proof. Bring forward the proof Mr. “ Junius’i’ and you will ensuretheir defeat, and East York will feel thankvfiil fer your services. If you cannot make good» your charges, you must submit to be called a slander- ‘er. You have a. right to attack those ‘m‘en on political grounds, but, you have no right to make serious charges against their personal character, unless you can substantiate them by 'elear evidence. "Junius” would make Mr. Metcalfe’s wealth an objection to him. In the .“ Herald" ot'last week there appeared ‘an article on i“ Pay to Members of Par liament.” \Vhile I believe the English system of not paying members would not, as arule, work- in this country, I think we ought to carry 'out the princi- ple whenever we have an opportunity. If we can_.get.~_g;1§n,_whose wealth and social position 'are such that the salary of an M. P. P. can be no attrac- tion, should we, not. avail ourselves of their services, and, in doing so, would we not be practically carrying out the Bri- tish system? .Now, Mr. Metcalfe and Mr. Crosby are just such men, and that is the reason. why , East Yorkâ€" should send'them to Parliament.

SIMâ€"Some time ago the Globe made the statement, that “it was a remarkable fact, that Toryism,ieither in this coun- try, the mother country or the States, could not bear the light of discussion;- that Tories were- alWay's ' compelled to resert to physical-force to maintain their cause.” Now, Sir, I know you will in- dignantly deny the mild impeachment, and that you have sufficient faith in the creed of your party to believe that 'a free discussion would only strengthen your position, and show the weakness of your opponents. These being your views, I know you will only be too glad, to have the opportunity of putting the political opinions, of a Grit along side your own, in order that the striking con- trast may dispel any doubts that might remain of the orthodoxy of your politi- cal creed, and make clearer than ever the heresy oflyour opponents. Well, Sir, aftér‘seriou‘s consideration, I propose to give you this opportunity; I propose to enter youfieamp; alone, on the ~ one condition, that not more than two at! tack me" together; I have considered the danger; I have weighed the re- sponsibility; Iknow I may come out of the unequal contest, but a “wreck of my former self;" I feel, also, that my discomfiture my be a blow to my Reâ€" form friends, as some unthinking per- sons would attribute my def'eat to the weakness of my cause. Though filled with such fears, filled with visions of giants in the way, I step forward to the contest trembling, without confidence in my own s‘rength, but animated and supported by thejustipe of my cause, and the hope (faint and glimmering though it be) of victory. I notice in your last issue a communication signed “Junius,” thinking that the great Junius had come to life again, and that there would now-be a chance of finding out his realname, .I hastened to read the communicationito look for internal evidence of the great mind that once shook a kingdoufi but what was my dis- appOintment and indignation when I found that the great name ofJunius was made responsrble for a piece of composi- tion, remarkable only for its' poverty of thonght, its vulgar; abuse, and its seri- ous charges against the characters lof men without a shadow of pfoof. “ Junius” opens his letter with a fine exordium, he says “ that it is an old and well known maxim in political philo- sophy, that every act, before it became law. should be well and truly tested by the lights ofexperience and justice, &c " What does he mean by the word “act ? ’ I did not know before that anything re- ceived the name of “ Aet’flbefore it pass- ed into law,“ ' And will “.Iunius" tell us how an “ Act” can be “ tested by ex- perience" before it becomes 'a law?

For the information of those who are not per‘ lsonally acquainted with Mr. Metcalfe, lit may not be out of place, here, to state that he arrived in Melbourne just at a time when his services were in great de-l mand, and by good natural abilities, close attention to business, and indefati- 3 gable industry, toiling night and day, and literally by the sweat of his brow he accumulated wealth ; and had the satis- 3 faction also of gaining the confidence and esteem of some of the best men in ’ that distant country. He could have remained there. or removed to England , his native land ; but Canada had longl been his home, and severing the ties of l of friendship and business, he took pasâ€" l sage with the good wishes of scores of 3 friends who were present at his depar- ture for his adopted home, and the ‘ County of' York has shared largely in ‘ the proceeds of labours. And I can» ‘ not 2‘ 9“ ain mentioning that many a Wan~ ‘ the nominees 'of' the party, no matter what personal objections may be urged against them, providing those objections do not involve clear and irrefraguble proof of dishonesty. I believe that if the Reform party is in power we shall have a better government and better laws, than we would have un- der the tories. .I believe that Confeder- ation will be safer in their hands, as it embodies the principles for which the Reform party fought for years, in op- position to the tories. Believing thus, I feel I must rise above personalities, and do all I can to elect that man who will strengthen the hands of the Reform party in Parliament. Let it be remem- bered. that so far as Mr. Metcalfe’s or Mr. Milne's individual action is concern- ed, it is not going to affect our interests in the slightest degree. Alone, they can do nothing for us‘neither good nor bad It is only when they unite themselves With a party that their power is felt â€" I know the argument will not hold good when applied to such men as Mr. Brown or Mr. J. A. Macdonald. but'it is appli- cable to all ordinary men. When a can- didateupresents himself, the great, ques- tion should be, with what party will you identify yourself? For the sake of unity, and for the sake of the great work the party has to accomplish yet, rally round the standard, and show that, though some of you have been disabpointed in your hopos and crossed in your purposes, you. are yet true in your allegiunee to the party, which fought for Responsible go- vernment tilr we obtained it, and is now about crownng its labours by giving us Confederation. It is generally known, throughout the Riding, that Mr. Metczilfc was sought for, as a candidate, by those who were best acquainted with Hm; convinced that he would make an excellent Mcm be‘riâ€"nud, indeed, it was not until after strong assurances, not until he observed, by a marked demonstration, that he was in public favor, that he yielded to 'the solicitations of his numerous friends to accept the nomination. Having con- sented, he was prepared to carry on the contest, if necessa-y, vigOrously ; and he was also ready for any examina- tion into his qualifications or fitness for the position, and to give any explana- tions that might be reasonably demand- To the Editor of the York IIcmld. SIR :â€"-I have just finished reading a communication in your last publication, which some friend has been kind enough to rel'er me to, under the title of “ Our Candidates,”wherein your correspondent, who arrogates to himself the appellation of “ Junius,” seeks to injure Mr. James Metealt’e in public estimation, by coward- ly insinuations. Fearing, if allowed to pass unnoticed, some elector, possibly, may be beguiled into the belief that the hints referred to have some foundation. [ beg to be allowed the privilege of‘ offer- ing one or two observations in reply, through the same channel, in which Mr. Metea‘lf'e is assailed. He is an old friend of mine, and my intimacy with him, for years, enables me to speak with confi- dence. I am convinced that nothing would induce him to descend to such an unworthy :node of attack against his bit- terest opponent. ed. But I Mn confident he never antici- pated being mnlieiously slandercd by contcmptiblc insinuatiuns, such as are intended to be conveyed' by that. portion of your Correspondent’s letter in which he alludes to Mix Metculfe having late/‘1] relurnmlfrmn a penal settlmnmt, and with his pen still wet, dcclarcs that he won't villi/y his opponents or traducc the character ofthose who have offered as candidates. Oh! shades of Junins! ! What consideration is such a person en- titled to, and what can he expect from a discerning people but their excom- tion '3 daring Is your correspondent ignorant of the fact that Melbourne, where Mr Metcalfe resided during his short ab- sence from Canada, is not a penal settle- ment, but the capital of the Colony of Victoria, again and again referred to as one of the brightest jewels in the British Crown ; and which, eleven years ago, the time of his departure therefrom, con tained a population of nearly 120,000 persons? 1f f‘Junius” be so ignorant he should know that ignorance is no pal- liation for his offence of baser attempt- ing to defame the character of one who stands so deservedly well in the estima- tion of the public as to be nominated for the Honse of Commons by one of the largest and most influentier meetings of the kind ever held in the East Riding of York) and who is also honored by oe- eupying ' other important and re- sponsible situations, where merit is a ne- cessary qualification.

But there is some satisfaction in be- lieving that Mr. Metoalfe will survive all 1the abuse and' calumny that can be possibly heaped upon him by such a vindictive writer as lell' correspondent. I can inform hlm that Mr Mr. Met- lcalfe is, by birth, and in heart and soul, a British subject, inspired ‘by British nprinciples. abhors demagogues and slan- derers ; is virtuous, kind, intelligent and energetic, and in every respect ‘worthy the confidenceof the electors of \the Eat Riding of York, Whose repre- sentative, in the Commons of our new ‘ Dominion, he is sure to be. -1 t The troops ofthe Imperial Gum-d and those of the Line forming part of the gar- ‘rison of Pan-is have been for some days iordered alternately. at the rate of a batty lion a day, for service at the Universal Ex- hibition.
