Curiouslv enough, the only missing arm was a gun belonging to the wounded captain. I asked him did he remember the simâ€" He did. It wasjust a shade smaller than the bore of the regimental carbines You could get a govern- ment bullet down by a good deal of hammering. I now propounded my the-om. that the bullet No. 2 had be firm] from Ihe captain’s missing rifle. for the point 0! the bullet was mark-cal wilh rings, and considerably flat. mned. Now, there was naming in :he flesh and naming in the saddle to produce these marks. and may must therefore have been made before firing.

Pursuant to proclamation, the electors of the “7051: Riding)r of York assembled at Mr. Eagle’s magnificent public Hall, Weston, yesterday, Friday the 23rd in- stant, for the purpose of nominating can- didates for the House of Commons and Local Legislature. There was I. large gathering of the electors present. Pre- cisely at one o’clock, the Returning Offi- cer, T. H. Bull, Esq, commenced the proceedings of the day, by reading the Royal Writs and commissions. He stated that the moversand seeonders of candidates would be allowed five min~ utes each to speak, and the candidates should have thirty minutes; the pro- posers and seconders then made their appearance on the balcony of the Hall, to address the_eleetors, who stood out upon the road; during the whole pro- ceedings the electors conducted them- selves in a most orderly manner, and acted like men who were intent upon ‘the performance of an important duty The nominations for the House of Com- mons were three, viz.:â€"â€"â€" fllr. David Blain, was proposeJ by Mr. Levi Snider, of Burwick, and seconded by Mr. Stewart Blain. The Hon. 1V. P. IIowlaml, 0.3., was proposed by W. A. Baldwin, Esq, and seconded by J. P. Rupert, Esq., of Vaughan. Mr. Seymour Hubcrtus‘ was proposed by Mr.John McKinnon, and seconded by Mr.» Stewart Blam, of Vaughan. A poll was demanded, in accordance with the statute, and the nominations for the Local Legislature took place in the following order 2â€"â€" ' Dr. Bull,_ proposed by Mr. William Walhs, and sceondcd \by Mr. David Jeffrey. W/n. TyrreZl, Esq‘, proposed bywm. James, 19qu and seconded by 'L'homas Blulholland, Esq. ler. 7 homas I]0dgins, an ambitious young lawyer, from Toronto, was also proposed, for the simple purpose of af- fording him an .opportunity to try his hand at political oratory~after making an attempt to be eloquent, he stated that he retired from the contest! Qizomas Go'uhame, 1739., pf‘oposrd by Mr. James Duncan, and seconded by W. A. Bledivin, Esq. After the nominations had been gone‘ through, and a poll demandedâ€"the elee-l tors were admitted to the Hall, whichl is a commodious and tastefully arranged structure, reflecting much credit upon Mr, Eagle's idea of public convenience. The Hon W. P. Howland, by right. of seniority, was the first to address the electors; he spoke well, and with good taste appealed to the electors in a manâ€" nor that excited unanimous applause. Messrs. H ubertus and Bluin severally addressed the electors amidst frequent and loud interruptions, from all parts of the Hall; it was evident they were un- fuvorably looked upon, and not wanted in \Vest York. Dr. Bull made a Speech, setting forth his claims upon the strength of being the nominee of the Reform delegates, but made no impression upon the audiâ€" ence; he was followed by Mr. 'I‘yrrell, in a manly and telling speech, which carried the great bulk of his hearers with him. Mr. Tyrrell then, in presence of Dr. Bull, repeated his assertion that the Hon, \V. P. Howlnnd had told him (Tyrrell) that Dr. Bull had promised to support Mr. Howlzmd, and that the Dr. had also promised to support the Hon. J. Sandfield Macdonuld's administration. Mr. Tyrrell called upon the Hon. Mr. Howland to say whether he had not so informed him. Dr Bull here en- deavored to raise a quibble, by saying that Mr. Tyrrell had asserted, at former meetings, that Dr. Bull had “ promised to suppnrt Mr. Howland thrmlgh (Md: and thin I” The audience waited, in profound silence. to hear Mr. Howâ€" ‘ - - n -. 1 _ [we W." . land settle the question of veracity, beâ€" tween Mr. Tyrrell and Dr. Bully and when he rose every breath was hushed to catch his words. Mr. Howland then stated that Dr. Bull assured him that- he (the Dr.) would not oppOSe him, and that he 3&3“ would do what he could to prevent (my opposition being brought out against him (Mr. H. ;) and that Dr Bull had also given the Hon. J. S. Mac- donald to understand that he would not oppose his administration! This settled the question, as between M 1'. Tyrrell and Dr. Bull, and excited great applause in ‘ favor of Mr. Tyrrell, whose veracity Dr. ‘ ‘ Bull had so frequently, but vainly, tried to impeach. From this, until the close of the proceedings7 Dr. Bull’s star de- clined, and at the termination, there was not one in the crowded hall who would propose a cheer for Dr. Bull, although ' there were three hearty cheers given for I Mr. Howland, Mr. Tyrrell, and Mr. Grahame; this was a cooler for Dr. Bull, and we’ heard several persons re.. THE NOMINATIONS. W’hofic N0. 4‘76 Lmark that‘it was likely that he would re- ‘tire frdm thé contest be'fOi‘e" the 150116 would be opened. Electors of W'est York read the following facts, and make your chowe at the polls. For the past fifteen years Mr. Tyrrell; has been a member of the County Council, end has rendered many valuable serviees during that- period ; his best energies ‘ have been devoted to protecting the in- terest of the ratepayers, and so managing the affairs of the County as to lighten the burthen of taxation, and enable the hard- working and industrious farmers and mechanic'sâ€"nae well as all ratepayers generallyâ€"t0 enjoy the fruits of their honest labour. He has consulted their interests by advocating the lSeparation of the County from the Citv of Toronto, for Jud-1'- cial Purpos’es,‘ Thereby saving; farmers from the loss l of time sustained by attending the Courts in Toronto, as jurors for the trial of mat- ters which should be tried before citizens» of Toronto. It was by Tliere‘is no doubt but Dr, Bull is the weakest of the three candidates {be his no strength in his 0an ToWnship, except among a few friends on Yonge street,-~ on the contrary, Mr. Tyrrell is strong in the Township of York, and particularly so in his own neighborhood, inand about. Weston. This is a fair index by which to judge of his strength ; and being a public man of grout experience; and hav‘ ing rendered important services 'to the County of York7 we feel confident he is the only man of the three who ‘is calcu- lated to be of real use to this constitu- ency at 'such an impoztant juncture of our affairs. Mr. Grahame‘s past course, during the past two years he has served in the County CouncIl, is notsuoh’as 'to meet with the approval of men who bars to Work hard for their money, and find it recklessly voted away in largesalaries. As for Dr. Bull he has never had expeo rience as a public man ; and, judging by" the result of the proceedings at Weston, yesterday, the day appears to be distant when he will try the experiment at the expense of the independent electors of West York. Mr. Tyrrell’s casting vote that the County Council decided to see cure the YORK ROADS to the County, as can be seen byh rm ference to page 175 of the minutes of 1864;â€"see “special meeting,” on the 2nd Nov. of that year. It was moved and Seconded that the By-law authorising the appointment. of an arbitrator in the matter of the York Roads “ be not read read a third time on the fourth Tuesday in January next, when the members of this council will have an opportunity of' consulting the ratepayers of these United Counties, at the coming Municipal Elec- tions, on the propriety of purchasing the York Roads.

The By-law was then read the third time and passed.” What has been the result, of'ihat’one Well judged Vote of Mn Tyrrell, ‘ and how are the farmers and rateâ€"pnyeai affected by it?
