THEN AND NOW. The last tWenty years of Canadian History has been enriched by the appear- ance on the stage of public life, of state, men, who have shed a resplendent lustre upon the annals of our country. Their achievements have fixed our status 1115.111 in the family of nations, and opened an ever-widening vista of future lll‘tlSil’K‘lIiy before us. .It will undoubtedly be re- garded in future times as the Augustari age of Canadian statemanship. Craters, financiers, legislators. All men of sterâ€" ling ability, stainless integrity and IIICC» pendentjudg‘nicnt. But the one man whose controliug genius and marvelous tact was instrumental in making,r all this talent available to the country, was Sir John Macdonald. On the page of His- tory-he will tower high above the other great and able man who acted with him. His remarkable popularity and success were undoubtedly owing to the tact that he never for :1 moment lie-got that he Was of the people. lie never allowed himv self to have any ideas or crocliets of statesmanship. He always tried to ascertained in what direction the popular will pointed, and on such knowledge he acted with that unerring sagacity and promptitudc which characterized him. It will be perceived that it requires a mind of extraordinary natural talent and re- source to enact such a role. Should a crisis arise requiring his peculiar powers, we are convinced that they would be sought for in vain elsewhere. The re- action is already setting in which heralds his return to power. But whatever takes place his great services have cin- balmed him in the pantheon of history. We will glance for a moment at the great array of high-minded men who have unliesitatirigly risen at his bidding and placed their distinguished talents at the service of the state. At one period in our historyâ€"«through the reckless and unscrupulous system of agitation carried on by an Upper Cana- dian politicial party, who have made themselves notoriousâ€"dire French of Lower Canada were excited into an at- titude of jealousy and mistrust. Their religion and political leaders had been {Mill-[ed and mismanaged, and they were consequently indisposed to listen to any compromise with Upper Canada in the way of constitutional readjustment. It was a period in whiclfithc least contra- . tempts or false move might lead to per- manent cstrangement. The situation rc- quircd the intervention of the highest efforts of the statesmen. The danger was happily averted and the crisis sur- mounted by the mutual good understand- ing which Sir John inaugurated between himself and Sir G. E. Carter, the boldest and most talented of French leaders. genius. These men were kings from h_,_ ‘ to heel l \Ve need say no more. at now We 001110 to the day of small minors...

In the department of finance, Sir Francis IIineks has dis played the most signal ability.

A CAUTION 'ro Docs, THEIR ()wvsns AND liAltnol'liElts‘lâ€"By a lieraw of their Muni- cipal Council of the village of Richmond llill, it is among other things enacted “That the Inspector of Nuisances or other person authorized by the Village Council shall kill or destroy and bury any dog or bitch for which the owner or harbourer has not paid the tax herein before stated (in preceding sections) (1fth the said tax has been once demanded by the person author ized to receive or collect the Village Taxes." We would suggest to our village friends who own dogs worth keepingâ€" who have refused to payâ€"to chain them tip until next year. For if such dogs are permitted to run at large the danger is that Mr Inspector Crawâ€" ford or some other person authorized by the council will send them to David Jones locâ€" ker. Mscruaics’ Hermanâ€"The Concert in connection with the Mechanics’ Institute in this village came elf, as announced, on last Friday evening. The audience was not as large as on seine previous occasions, but the renditions were excellent and highly appre- eluted by those present. The President, Mr Wrii. Trench, ably presided and began lthe programme by calling on Miss F. Barn- ‘r.rd and Messrs Splilding for an “instruâ€" mental,” whieh was rendered with much (skill. “The White Squall ” followed, by ,Mr A. Wilson, which was loudly encored, l, Mr Wilson returning the compliment with “ My pretry June.” In the absence of Miss Velie, Miss M. Sanderson, by request, supâ€" plied her place With “The Nightingale,” which was deservedly encored and responded to. Next came an “Instrumental,” by Miss Teefy. This young lady appeared quite at home at the piano, and played with a proliâ€" eielrev that drew forth the plaudits of the audience. The “Village Blacksmith" was then called for, and was given by Mr Blight, eliciting an encore which was answered by “Safely Follow Him.” “ Tuscan girl crowning the Sea,” by the Misses Campbell and Sanderson, was highly appreciated. “Nalalie, the Maid of the Mill,” by Mrs James, closingr the first part of the pro- Mrs James’ style is exceedingly Part second Jillllllllt’. lively and decidedly pleasing. opened with an “Instrumental,” by Miss F. Bernard and Messrs Spaldiug in their usual attractive manner, and was listened to with much attention. Then the “ Old Sex ton,” by Mr Blight, was appropriately sung, followed by “ Waiting,” by Miss Sanderson an encore was the result. Next came anoâ€" tlier excellent "Instrumental," by Miss Teefy, which was executed with admirable taste. Mr A. L. Wilso , to whom the lirâ€" stitute is indebted for inricli assistance. gave in his accustomed happy mariner “ When the Joys of Youth.” drawing from those present a hearty encore, to which he reâ€" sponded by “Relief of Lucknow.” Mrs James finished up the programme by giving “Robin’s Return.” It is scarcely necesâ€" sary to say that an encore was the next in order which resulted in the audience being ; favored with " Tap, Tapping at the Garden Gate," with the same spirit and animation which characlerizes all Mrs James’ efforts , when before an appreciative assembly. A vote of thanks was given to the ladies and gentlemen who assisted at the entertainment. York County Councu. . SPECIAL MEETING.
