Playtex Richmond Hill. The four members for North and East York held a meeting at Stoufl'ville a short time ago, and a most melancholy affair it was. Whether the people were unable to bear four such men together at one time and in one small village, we know not, but an awful fizzle was there. Indeed it is enough to make one aImOst doubt the wisdom of the decrees of Providence when we see two fine Ridings inflicted with such a quartette of mis- representatives in one season. Dymond, Metcalf, Lane and Widdifield, what have these Itidings done to deserve such a visitation? With the "Bald headed Annanias,” as he is termed by our witty cotemporary we will deal at some future day; the local men we will severely let alone for the present. But there is the member for the Commons for the East Riding, Mr. Metcalt', for him we have a sincere sympathy ; by what mulign influence was this un- fortunate man dragged out of his quiet obscurity to make a speech ? Was there no friend to warn him that eloquence is not his forte? Was he not well aware that he could not open his mouth without putting his foot in it? \Vhy not follow up before the people his well considered habit in the Halls of the Legislature? Why not, we say, keep his lips tightly closed, looking all the time wondrous wise 'r The public gazes admiringly at the silent mun imagining mines of unexplored wisdom under his placid exterior; but woe betide the man STA TECRAF T IN NORTH AND EAS ‘T YORK. trim with nothing in his head, in an evil hour unlocks the flood gates of his speech; for then the people find him out, and for the longr future the owl like wisdom of his countenance is worthless This was the hapless member’s fate at Stoufi'ville, wandering on for nearly an hour in his dreary platitudes, no man might know what he was driving at, and it was very evident he did not know himself. Nay, even the small boys with liveliest imaginations becamefiisgusted and left; yet, bad as this was, tho’ fear- ful the torture, the wretched man might, in a great measure, have escaped the consequences of his rash act, had not his brother, Mzn'plot, from North York, gone and printed his speech, but there it is in the Globe of Monday wetlc, let his, constituents read it for themselves, bearing in mind that it is intended as the exposition by a statesman of his views in a diflieult crisis of our national affairs. Then it' his constituents don’t shed briny tears for our national affairs, they can be no true lovers of their country. The election for Arthabaska and Drummond came off on Saturday last, and resulted in a glorious victory for the Opposition. In 1874 M. Laurier was elected to support- tho Gowrnment by a majority of 228. Nothing can be brought against his personal character, and as regards local popularity, he had a decided advantage over his opponent, in being known as a talented and rising man. His friends naturally thought that going; back for re-eleetion as a mem- ber of the Government, he would be re- turned by a very large majority, but this instead ofproving an advantage to him, has been the real cause of his defeat. Had he ran as an independent member, there is no doubt but that he would have been reelected; while had he solicited the sufl'rages of the electors, even as a moderate supporter of the Government, he would have had a more favorable chance oi'being returned. But the intelligent electors of Drummond and Al‘thabaska rightly considered it an insult for a man pledged to support the present Ministry through thick and thin, to ask for their supportâ€"and they acted accordingly. There were not very many persons who expected that Mr. Laurier would be defeated His opponent, Mr. Bourbeau, a merchant in Drummond, was not nearly as well known; was not considered a public speaker, and had nothing: to lose it he proved unsuccessful. The defeated can: didate, on the other hand, is familiar to a vast majority of' the electors, having stumped the ridingson previous occasions, and his recent address on “ Liberalism,” melting his name almost a liousuhoifi DENOUNCEMENT OF THE MACKENZIE GOVERNMENT. M. LAURIER, THE NEW MIN- ISTER, DEFEATE'D. Property for saleâ€"F615;” J Jarvis THE HERALD. SUBSCRIPTIONS RECEIVED THURSDAY, NOV. 1, 1877. NE W ADVERTISEMENTS Tle above is the incisive wording of the telegram sent by Mr. Mackenzie, when charged with the Steel RailsJobin ’ the columns of the Gazette, and in this i connection we say, that there is perhaps nothing which more distinguishes the statesman from the dcmagoque, than his regard for truth. The utterances of the former are governed and controlled, not only by a strong sense of the fitness of things, but by the conviction of their weight and permanence in the public mind; ‘while the latter seldom succeeds in ris- ing above the instincts of his own crafty disposition and unscrupulous will, for the most part sacrificing his veracity to ,the desire of obtaining an advantage for the moment at the expense of truth. And luhha-ppily for the country, we have never had a more striking illustration of this than is offered by the present Premier. We say unhappin for the country, be- cause its political tone cannot fail of being lowered, when its Chief Minister is found to be as unreliable in his state- ments as a mock Auctioneer. Moreover, better things were expected from Mr. Mackenzie. The mass are readily im- posed upon, in the first instance by the out-ward seeming a man puts on, and it was largely believed in by men of both parties, that a sterling honesty and love of country, was veiled under his rugged exterior and coarse manner. There never was a worse fraud imposed upon a people; for no sooner did he attain the object of his ambition, than it became apparent. not only, that he was prepared to sacrifice our national interests at any moment to serve the hungry crew that surround him, but that he was also pre- pared at any moment to defend his posi- tion by a false statement. For instance. in the infamous Lachine Canal Job of Jette and Laflamme, he stated in his place in parliament, that he was entirely, ignorant of the whole matter; whereas, when it came on for trial in the Courts, it was proved out of his own mouth, that he himself had ordered that these men should be furnished with the infor- mation they desired out ofhis own depart. ment. in the Foster Contract matter he has repeatedly stated that the money was paid on the certificate of the Chief Engineer, this as was afterwards proved, was simply untrue there was no such certificate. In the Steel Rails’ matter he stated that he was advised to pursue the course he did by Messrs. Workman and Darling, of Montreal, Hardware Merchants; but these gentlemen say they knew nothing about it, and so on through the whole term of his ministerial career. He seems never to have been able to divest himself of the evrl habits acquired while stumping the country in the role of a clear Grit demogogue trained in the school or the Globe and the Browns, he has been ever ready to snatch at a lie to save himself from present exposure, trusting, and not in vain, that a large proportion of his supporters would see the assertion but not its contradiction. In plain truth, the man never was fitted by nature or education for any better part than that ofthe henchman of George Brown ; the semblance of rough honesty worn so well during the days of his opposition being only a mask put on to cover the real coarseness of the man’s nature; and even now he has the efi‘rontery at public meetings to denounce Set ator Mct’lctson’s pamphlet as a tissue of lies from beginning to end, when he knows full well that he dare not grapple with a statement it contains. And we again say that it is an unfor- tunate thing for the country that it should have for a chief minister one who has not even the decency to pay an outward regard for the semblance of the truthâ€"These are plain words, but they are true, and we do not know that any special delicacy need be observed towards a man who has no measure in the abuse he pours on his opponents from the pub- lic platform.

Three young; men left this village early one fine morning of last week, wandered around in the woods all day, led the farmers in their vicinity to believe they were engaging a regiment of ’I'urkics, and came home late at night, worn and weary. withâ€"â€"a gray squirrel. \Ve do not believe the report circulated by some personsâ€"that they run the squirrel to death ; we have more faith in mankind than to think they would take such an advantage of a squirrel. No! we believe they cornered him, and demanded an unconditional surrender. The squirrel ret'used, he wished to march out with all the honors of war. These Bashi-Bazouks then drew their line of entrenchments closer and closer, and without the slightest feeling of pity for the poor animal’s grey hairs, fired volley after volley into his body, until they felt assured that he was dead. They then cautiously approached the animal, tied his feet together, threw him over a stick, suspended from shoulder to shoulder, and with a very grave and uiournful air, commenced their march for home,1n Indian file, chanting, " Dead March in Saul," with variations from “See, the conquering heroes come.” We have good authority for saying that squirrel will be stuffed.

Sce bills, TRIAL OF B‘ANNING MILLs.â€"A number of farmers having.r expressed a desire at the 'Woodbridge Fair, to see a fair trial take place between the Wilson Mill, of this village, and the Johnston Mill of Newmarket, it was agreed that both parties should be present with their mills at Mr. Wm Smith’s farm. on Lot No 24, on the 8th Con. of York, on Friday, the 26111 inst. the sum of $10 being: forfeited by either side who failed to appear. At the appointed time the respective parties put in an appearance, and Messrs. A Hoover, Sen., l5 Smith. and John Strong were appointed Judges. There were also about fifteen farmers present, who all appeared to take an interest in the trial of’ the mills After being thoroughly tested with all kinds of grain for nearly three hours, the Judges decided in favor of Wilson’s Mill, which was immediately purchased by Mr. Smith. A meeting of the Committee of the Mechanics’ Institute was held on Tues- day evening last, when it. was decided to appropriate thirty dollars for purchas- ing books.

We have received the prospectus of the Times, a paper to be short-1y estab- lished in the vxliage of Sutton, by Messrs. Mortimer and Kewney. This promises to be a thriving village, and as the Times will be Liberalâ€"Conservative, we see no reason why it should not prosper. The annual meeting of the Richmond Hill Branch Tract Society washeldin the Presbyterian Church in this village, on Friday evening last. The Agent, Rev. J.

Treas., J H Sanderson ; Committee of Management, A. Marsh, I Crosby, W Harrison, G Trench,J Ness, H Sander- son; Collectors, Miss Maggie Coulter, Miss Lillie Sedman and Miss Eva Seagar. On Saturday last, while a number of' young men‘and lads Were hunting on the town-line between Scarboro and York, an accident occurred, which has suddenly plunged a happy family into distress, and removed a blight young lad fmm the *bosom of his family and the society of 1113 piaymates. It appears that amongst the compzfliy were Robert Summers, a young man aged twenty, and the deceased, aged twelve, a son of Mr. David Hunter; the former of Whom was carrying: his gun “full cock ”; and about three o’cloek, while Summons was getting over a fence, his gun discharged itself’ into the loius of Hunter who was about lwclve feet in front of his innocent destroyer. The victim immediately fell, and an exami- nation of the body revealed a large wound, from which the life-blood of the sufl‘ering lad was quickly ebbing. He was carried into the house of" Mr. Brackin, which was close at hand, and medical aid quickly summoned,â€"but in vain, he survived only a few hours, when death ended his agony. The funeral on Tuesday, was largely attended by the friends and neighbors, who deeply sympathize with the family in their deep affliction.
