Mr Cameron’s appeal for “ back pay ” is certainly worthy the consideration of the “ Reform ” party, and will, no doubt reach the hearts, if not the pockets, of many, whose chief aim in life is to make our country a cheap one to live in. It .V is amusing to see the way in which the :5 Globe seeks to polish over this second volume of the " big push ” series; it 'ccxpresses indignation at- the Mail for publishing what it calls a “private and ‘ confidential ” communication, “ on mat- .itprs of a purely personal or political ‘ character.” This comes with a very «bad grace from a journal who applauded ithe'sléaling, and afterwards published a "a letter of a strictly private character pas‘ musing from the leader of a Government to one. his colleagues. Mr Cameron’s val‘privatc and confidential ” appeal was -a printed circular, and issued to all the members cf the party, and it would be . hbsurd to place it in the same light as a privuteletter. The chief bugle of the party seeks to justify Mr Cameron’s pacts; by informing its readers that WflWilliam Wilberforce spent £20,000 :an 11. Hull election, in the good old Li‘imo; when George the Third was King.” This suggests the idea that Malcolm is a {Wilberforce on a small scale, and only iâ€"laeked [the funds to outrival the states- man of “ye olden time." The same organ expresses sorrow for the loses in- curred by the member for South On- t'a'rio, but consoles him with the idea 31that the “ Reform ” cause is well worth all the sacrifices ever made on its behalf, .:but Mr Cameron requires something of :a more substantial nature, for consola- «tion, than mere words. 1 Among the many services be rendered the Party, Mr Cameron sayg, “ I spent time and money in carrying South Un- tario and defeating a Minister of the Crown.” At a “Reform” demonstra- tion, held at, Ottawa, after the General In the “ dark ages,” when the “ Re- formers” occupied the “back seats,” and the “ ‘ Liberal ’ party were fighting the uphill battle of shaking off the in- cubus of a corrupt and extravagant gov- ernment,” Mr Cameron claims to have spent 85000 in establishing an organ at Ottawa in the__interests of the party.- He relied upon the promises of the " Re- iorm ” association that they would pay their share. These promises, like a great many others of a”: more serious mature made by the party, have never ’been fulfilled. “ One noble specimen of 4; man and a ‘ Reformer,’ ” paid him -3500,nnd Messrs Mackenzie, Cartwright, Smith, Burpee, Laird and Coflin, con- tributed $1,500, leaving a balance of 83,000, which, with three years’ inter- est, imioiinis‘ to‘ $3,720. Other “ noble specimens " promised to raise the bal: .-nnee.for him within an hour in the House.

ANOTHER “BIG PUSH." l The annual meeting of the Richmond Hill Branch Bible Society was held in the Presbyterian Church here. on Wednesday evening last. Mr R; Marsh, the President. presided over the meeting, and the Rev. Mr Dick, the Secretary, read the annual report, which showed continuing prosperity. The Revs. J. H. Starr, Jas. Dick, and the agent, Mr Ross, set forth the claims ofthe Society to the liberal support of the inhabitants of the neighborhood.

Last Friday evening our villagers were regaled to the somewhat novel. though amusing spectacle of our village Constable -â€"-who had gone to Toronto to arresta man on a charge of stealingâ€"returning safely handcufl'ed and in the charge ofthe prisoner. For the benefit of our readers who reside outside of our corporatiCn and who are con- sequently unacquainted with our worthy Police Inspector, we will give a detailed statement of the ease, as it came under our notice. Mr Crawford, our village Constable, otherwise known as the “Rambler,” had served the full period of twenty-one years in Her Majesty’s service, and was conse neut- ly supposed to he possessed of su cient valor to make an excellent “ bobby.” For some years past his superabundant energies had been chiefly expended in the duties per- taining to the office of Fire and Nuisance Inspector, ‘and occasionaly contributing to the columns of the HERALD some edifying articlers which gained for him the sobriquent quoted above. The life of a village Con- stable, in a community so quiet as this, must naturally be a very monotonous one, and not at 'all suited to a son of Mars, whose past experience had been altogether differ- ent. His heart panted for an opportunity to distinguish himself, but previous to Fri- day last no such opportunity occurred. 0n the Thursday previous a warrant was issued by Mme. Trench. Reeve. for the arrest ofa sewing machine Agent, in Toronto, the particulars of which will be (Hind ElseWhere- The great opportunity he had so long bqng' ered for had arrived, and the nexémor’lmg: with a “ let-justicc-be-doncthough-thew“- ens-should-fall ” ,look in his eye and a pair of handcufl‘s in his pocket, he departed by the. Buss for the scene of action, determined to return covered w.th glory, honor, “and a number of other articles too numerous to mention.” 0n arriving at Toronto the services ofa Detective were secured, and the arrest made without anything unusual tran- ‘spiring. The prisoner generously offered theservices of his own horse and buggy tu 'm’uke the'retu‘rn trip, when the “ Barribter” and his capture started for their destination. The return journey was without incident until they reached a hotel, when the young man, who by this time had gained the complete confidence of his guardian, The ” Rambler,” like most of the old vet- erans, had a weakness for " suthin ” pure, and accordingly was induced to “take ” a ni . The first “smile” was followed by others and when the resumed their journey he had about as muc “dampness” under his vest as he could control.

On their arrival at Palmer’s hotel, Crawford was unloaded, smoothed outyand tenderly cared for, the prisoner stating that how he had fainted from oVerwotk and exhaustion. and recom- mended him to be appointed local License Inspector where he could spend the remain- der of his days in swilling soda-water, and drawing Government pay.

ARRESTED roe THEFT.â€"An agent named, Pifer. in the employ of the Gardner Sewing Machine Co, was arrested in Toronto,on Fri- day last, on a charge of theft, preferred by 'Mr John BroWn of this village. The trial took place at Mr Palmer's hotel, on Friday evening, before Messrs Trench and Marsh. The particulars oi the case are as follows: On the 24th of December last Pifer went to Mr Brown's livery stable and hired asulkey and a set of harness, for which he agreed to pay 50 cts. per diem, and return on the fol- lowing Monday. He returned the sulkey in about ten days and promised to bring back the harness the following day. Mr Brown ,saw nothing more of Pifer till last Thurs- day, and on asking him about the harness he replied that they were at the Company‘s ‘ office, in Toronto, and that he [Mr Brown) could have them by sending in his claim.-â€"' Mr Brown laid information before the Reeve, who immediately issued a warrant for Pifer’s arrest. The evidence elicited at the trial failed to establish the charge and the prisoner was consequently discharged. The manager of the Company, in his evi- dence, swore that the Company were respon- sible for the hire of the harness, which was returner] on the evening of the trial. Mr Brown will therefore- have to present his bill to the Company, when, if they refuse to settle, his only course will be to fyle his claim with the Clerk of the Division Court.

The attendance was not very large in the morning, but after discussing a few points, a committee of seven were appoint- ed to draft resolutions to be submitted to the meeting at the afternoon session. The meeting then adjourned for dinner. At two o’clock the chair was again taken by Mr H. Diceman, who was appointed to take‘ the place of the regular chairman, Mr John Brown, in consequence of the latter’s ill- ness. The committee on resolutions sub- mitted their report, which, after some lively discussions and several amendments, was adopted by the "meeting. The session was closed at five o’clock.

The son, it appears, held a note for some $22 against the father, who, by some means got possession of it, and re- fused to deliver it to the son. on the ground that the son would not repay him a small loan which he had advanced him. Upon this, the son. who is said not to have lived very amicably with his parents, threatened to “thrash it. out of the old man,” and suit- ing the action to his words. seized his father by the throat, and was strangling him, when the father. taking up the blade of sheep- shears, stabbed the son about three inches below the nipple of the left breast, inflicting a serious and dangerous wound an inch and a halt' long and penetrating beyond the ribs.
