He has been removed ; and yet we are willing to testify that. the shock was very slight, if, indeed there was any, in this neighborhood. Good, steadfast Grits, who were waiting for an earthquake, no doubt really believe that there was a slight shock, but if so, we did not notice it. We were threatened with all sorts of evils ii' Letellier was dismissed. Signs would appear in the heavens. and many other things "that never happen, save when kings or heroes die." Well, after all, there was very little reason for such ridiculous outbursts as preceded and followed the act of removing that gentle- man . The course pursued by the Mail was much more dignified than that of its contemporary, and the same compari- son may he proceeded with to the great advantage of the Conservative papers all over the country. Some of them were, of course, as wild as the Reform organs, but with the exception of Quebec, they generally treated of the matter in a calm reasoning style. 7 There is no necessity for us to reprint the particulars of the ofl'ence for which Letellier was dismissed It has been [thoroughly published over i the Dominion ‘ The case was unprece- dentedinCanadian history,and although there‘are some featnnes which might bet telnhaVerb‘e-en avoided, it will be seen on cafeful‘consideration, by even opponents offthe, actyllhatjthe course pursued by Sirâ€"John was without doubt what he and-hiseolie'agues felt "convinced to be the onlyfiofieet and only permissible one , under the'c'i‘i'cumstances.‘ We think the country will survive. We fancy it will not be crushed or trodden under foot'by' the base, heel, etc., of the Ottawa autoc- ncy. The only sadfior regretful feature which has arisen sinée the “last. expiring groan of 'the'broke‘hConstitution sounded through our car and reached our heart” is that Sir John has been compelled, through fear of assasssination or. scalpa ’tidnyto forsake the home of his child- hood, and all the dear, familiar associa- tions, and wander amongst aliens and strangers ,â€"-that he should flee to Eng- land for that safety he is denied on this great and glorious hemisphere, when the shrill cry of the Eagle, and the flap,flap, ofits wings has not ceased, and will not cease until this refugee at the efiete Court of any tyrannous nation, be de- livered over to the just vengeance of an injured and enraged people? Ruat mlum. The Economist man cannot under- stand how any one can admire Blake as a liberal-minded, man and speaker. If his mind has got down to such a narrow groove as that, he certainly is to be pitied He seems to think that one political party should not for a moment suppose there can possibly he any good or reason- able men in the ’other. It would be news to him to hear that there are good men on both sides. The Economist is misrepresenting the truth when it tries to imply that the HERALD endorses Blake’s rem arke regarding the National Policy. We think Blakea man of great talent, a Liberal and a good speaker, but even he is not quite perfect, and many of his theories resemble toy balions nice to look at, or talk about, but use- less for all practical purposes. If the ' Economist understands him so thorough: ly and has such great admiration for him, it shouid publish a few articles ex- plauntory of his Imperial Federation scheme,CnmulativeVoting etc. Blake’s. speeches only refer”. to these matters in a general way.

Itis thus quite natural that the Spencerian should be preferred and used by professional penmen, in‘business colleges, counting rooms, government ofiices, public schools, and largely throughout the country. Indeed. so popular have they become, that of the “Number One” alone, as many as eight millions are sold annually in the United States.

COUNTY NEWS A Pen Worth Recommendlng LOCAL NEWS. [From our Exchangesl DEAR SIR ‘ It has been a cardinal undisputed principle of responsible government, that no Govenor should dismiss his Ministers, as long as they retained a: majority in Parliament, hut Governor Letellier oi Quebec, a professed Liberal 1. and Grit, ignored this principle and arbitrarily dismissed his ministers, although they at the time had a work- ing majority in both Houses, and ap- pointed the rouge Joly Ministry, and then called a new Election. Now Pre- mier McKenzie boasted in the House, , that the electors at the Polls had en-I‘ dorscd this disgraceful coup d’ stat. But how ? Why there was a tie, and ‘ that pure Grit Joly made a Big Push, mesmerised the speaker ; and by dis", ‘ reputable process obtained a base maj- ority. The torrents of abuse and sland- er that have by the Globe and other‘ Grit newspapers been poured out upon1 ‘ all who opposed Letellier‘s high handed; arbitrary proceeding is plain proof that ‘ the liberalism of the Grits is merely nominal. That party is everythingand principal a secondary consideration. 'l‘hus establishing a. precedent, fatal to our Liberty, that a governor can at any time, put Parliament at defiance, and become an irresponsrble dictator. Had the Governor General dismissed Premier McKenzie, when m the" zenith of his power, and appointed a Conservative Ministry, the Grit papers would then have been furious on the opposite side ofthe Question, what a burlesque .on I consistency. To the Editor of the Herald. 1 AN OLD SETTLER \Ve are always glad to hear from our old friend. Ed. DEAR SIR.â€"â€"In looking over the Economist of last week, I noticed in re- ference to theBuse-Ball Match it stated that “the Markham Club played very badly, but the Richmond Hill (Juniors)- did ten times worse.” NOW Sir, if that is so, the Markham Club must. have. done ten times .better, and Richmond Hill only" making 9 runs, Maikh-am would have to make "90, but they did not make half that number. I really hope now that politics is at. a rest for a short time, that the Economist man will give up that natural habit of telling those infernal â€", and confer a favor on his readers. Richmond Hill July'29th 1879 To the Editor of the Herald. (From our own Correspondent.) Manilla July 28th 1879 Manilla is a flourishing little village containing about 500 inhabitants. It is Situaled on the townline (or better known as the Portage Bond loadings:i to Port. Perry on the south, and the Duke 0n the u rth) between the toivnslnps of Bmâ€"afi‘fM‘ariposa. It contains m6 Hotels, kept in a first rate style sultlflble to the wants of the travelling public ; four fine churches, so you may suppose it does not want for religious ceremon- ies ; 5 stores, In any you can purchase from a needle to an anchor; school house, 2 telegraph oflices, post office, milliner’s shop, watehmaker’s shop, 2 carriage- shops, 2 blacksmith's, waggon, paint shops and tannery. The private resi- dences are neatly built of brick, stone, and frame materials, and have the lawns tastely laid out by gravel walks and ornamental trees. The-fair sex by their presence and ornaments, are not behind in adding beauty and happiness to these lovely dwellings. The villa e is :two miles distant from the Port ' erry and Lindsay Extension station, where Mr. Fred Thomas has erected a large and commodious hotel, for the convenience of those who daily go on and at? the trains. Since then Albert Ashton, has opened out a large Agricultural shopi where every kind of implements may be l had, and repairs for the same, also scver- t 11' stores and dwelling houses have been i built. The land in both townships to the south is light and very stony, and , .is broken agreat deal by swamps. 3 To the north it is much heavier and will correspond favorably with the land in Markham township. I may mention that on the fourteenth line of Brock there are some farms as fine as any in | Canada. In the northern parts thel harvest is fully two weeks behind the ’ southern, the' reason assigned is that, last full was wet, the farmers had nol opportunity of doing their usual plough- ing and consequently left the land wet ‘ in the spring, and prevented early seed« ing. I_was on one farm where was sown 65 acres of Red Chad and Scotch ‘ wheat. The farmer told me it was not worth cutting being completely destroy- ed by the midge. On the same farm ,and sown about the same time were 15 acres of California Goose Neck. The midge had not touched it, In the south- ern parts the farmers are busy in the midst of harvest. Mr Henry Farons near the village has 40 acres of Red Farrell and Club. It is as heavy and fine a crop as you would wish to notice. Vt herever sown early it has turned to be an abundant'crop, when late it has been a failure. Not much fall wheat sown, but what was. has been the Claw- son, and is a very fair crop. The bar- ley what there is, looks well and he- speaks an average yield. .The other crops, hay, peas, and oats, will yield far betterthan expected and are much beâ€" yond the average. Potatoes good, other roots are a failure. Every facility for marketing and travelling, no matter in what direction you wish to travel, you will find a gravel road, and kept in the best state of repair. The village is 5 miles from Cannington, 15 from Lindsay and 15 from Port Perry, eaeh village has a railway station near by. The farmers do not interest themsel. I vesin raising high-bred stock. Each has quite a number of cattle but are of a low grade. I may say the same with reference to sheep and hogs. I notice} an improvement in .the breeding of horses. @fiwmmmmmm. .- “MANILLA. Yours &c. BASE BALL. (Continued from last Wests.) Exception may be taken to the approâ€" ‘ printion of such a large extent of land for the building of this road, as exception was taken by hon. gentlemen opposite to the app'i-Qpriation of fifty million acres of land to be under the control of a company. We do not pro‘pnse here to put the land un- der tita- control er a company, although I Conlesslsn fur as I am cnncvrtmdfl Wt uld be glad. did the ctmdilimi of things permit of it, if atom-i any, liberally nided.. could, he fuund to take this work up, and, at their own responsibility and risk,carry it to com- pletion.

That being the case, Sir, [I believe we have a substantial basis to which we can look for the building of the road. Exception may be taken to the minimum price oftwo dollars an acre, but who is there who will not say, looking at the diameter of that land in the North-West. that the settler will preferto give two dol~ lars an acre for land within twenty miles of a railway that will carry his produce to market, than have, as a. free gift. land without railway facilities. We may, there- ‘fOle, fairly utilise that. great. work iii such :a way as will thus promote the settlement of these lands. I may he told that the purchasers of this land will lock it up. ;They cannot afford to do that, Sir. It is ‘ only by settlement that the purchaser can make the land more valuable; and if they do lock it up they will only be contributing to build the railway and to give railway lcommunication t0 the reSI of the country still lett untouched. The House will see, ‘ Sir, that we have not iitCieased the amount since our former proposition. Then we proposed to give a company fifty million I acres in alternate'blocks, the Government ireeerving the alternate blocks. Now, in t the changed condition of things, we utilize the whole immediately, and propose to The Pacific Railway. Br.

I do not, Sir, intend, at, this late period of the Ses- sion. to detain the House any further, but feeling that, hon. gentlemen Opposite will be able to give their cordial support to the Govmnment on the main features 0t this great question, however we may differ on some of the minutiae; feeling that we are agreed upon the necessitv of immediate action,and in such a way as [9 promote the prosperity of our country, afid looking to hon. gentlemen opposite as not prepared to take any serious objection to lhe pro- posals I submit, I beg leave to move the following Resolutions: "l. flesolvcd, That engagements have been entered into with British Columbia. as a condition of union wit :Cannda that a line 'of railway to connect. t 9 Atlantic with the Pacific shall be constructed with all prac- tical speed. " “2. Resolved. That the( Pacific Rni1~ Way would form a great Imperial highway acrosslhe continent of America entirely on British snii, and would previde a new and imporlant route from England to Aus~ traliu, to India and 10 all :he dvpendencies of Great Brimin in the Pacific; us also to China and Japan. “3. Resolved, That reports from the Mother Country set forth an unprecedenlod state of enforced idleness 0f the working cl asses. and. {he possibnlity ofa scheme of relief on :1 large scale being found indis- pensable to allevi‘am dest’itulion. "4. Resolved, That. the construchon of the Pacnfic Railway would afford immediate employment to numbers of wbrkmen. and would open up vast tracts of fertile land for occupation, and thus would ‘ form a ready out-let for the over-populatcd districts of-Great Britain and European countries. “5‘ Besolmd, That i! is obvious that it wo'uldbe of general advantage to find an outlet for the redundant population of the Mother Country within the ‘Em‘pn‘e,’and thus build up flourishing colonies on Brit- ish soil, insiead of dlreclmg a stream of immigration from England to foreign coun- (lies. “6.- Resolved, That in View of the im- portance of keeping faith with British Cni- umbia, and completing the consolidation of the Confederation of the Provinces in Brit- ish North America, and for the purpose of extending relief to thetunemployed work- ing classes of Great. Britain, and affording them permanent homes on British soil; and in view of the national character of the undertaking, the Government; of Canada is authorised and directed to use its best foOtIS to secure the co operation of the Imperial Governmentin this great under- taking and obtain further and by guarantee or otherwise, in4 the construction of- this great national work. “7. Resolved, That it is further expe- dient to provide (1) That one hundred mil- lion acres of land, and all the'minerals they contain, be appropriated for‘ the urposes of constructing the Canadian Paci c Rail- way. (2) That theland be vested in com- missioners to be Specially appointed, and that the Imperial Government be repre- sented on the Commission. [3] That all the ungranted land within twenty miles of the line of the Canadian Pacific Railway belonging to the Dominion be vested in such Commission; and that when the lands‘ along the line of the Canadian Pacific Railn way are not of fair average quality for set- tlement, a corresponding quantity of lands of fair quality shall be appropriated in other parts of the country, to the extent in all of100.000,000 ofacres. [4] That said Commissione:s be authorised to sell, from time to time, any portion such of land at a price to be fixed by the Governor-in-Coun- cil. on their recommendation, at the rate of inot less than $2 per acre; and that they i may be required to invest the proceeds ' of such sales in Canadian Government securiâ€" ‘ties, to he held exclusively for the purpose {of defraying the cost. of the construction lof the Canadian Pacific Railway. “8. Resolved. That the withdrawal for sale and seulement of lands of twenty miles 01: each side of the located line ofthe Pacific Railwav, has, in part, had the ef- fect of throwing settlements south and west of Lake Manitoba. “9. Resolved, That in existing state of things, it is desirable‘to combine the pro- motion of colonisation with railway con- struction on the Canadian Pacific Railway west of Red Riven. I _ "10 . Resolved, That the Government be authorised and directed to locate a portion of the Canadian Pacific Railway from the Red River, westerly, running to the south of Lake Manitoba, with a branch to Win- nipeg; and if they deem it advisable, to enter into-n contract for etpending a sum not exceeding $1,000,000 in constructing the said railway without previously submit- ‘ting the contracts to Parliament. “11. Resolved, That it is expedlent to make further explorations in the Peace and Pine River Districts, and other sections of the cmmlry not yet examined, in order to ascertain the fensibihty of a line through .the largest extent of fertile territory. be- fore beginning the work of construction in British Urdumbia.

That the Government be authorised and directed to make such fur- ther explorations as they may deem neces- sary for the said purpose, and so soon as they have finally selected and located the line, to enter into contracts for construc- ting a portion of the same, not exceeding 125 miles, without the further sanction of Parliament, so that the work of construc- tion may. at latest. be commenced during the present season, and, thereafter, be vigorously prosecuted.” ' Home 0? Commons Monday, l2th May, 1879 DR. TUI’PER said that, as no one appear- ed desiii'ous of saying anything; more on the resolutions, he would briefly reply to some ofthe crtticiSms and remarks which they had elicted. He had endeavoured, in introducing the resolutions, to avoid open- ing up any debateable ground between the two parties that did not necessarily come under the consideration ofthe very impor- tant questions involved. He regretted very much that hon. gentlemen opposite should not have felt it their duty to confine them- selves to the discussion of the questions naturally and necessarily raised by the resolutions themselves. He would not follow thetr bad example on the present occasion. He dld not intend to discuss what. was familiarly known as the Canadian Pacific Railway Scandal, and he did not think that hon. gentlemen opposite had any reason to suppose its revival would benefit either. themselves, or the country. it was quite true that hon, gentlemen opposite had snatched a hasty verdict from the country, by using that question as a means of exciting the public mind. But, they ought not to forget that, after five years’ of centinuous discussion of the ques- 110nm and out of Parliament, after the, whole matter had been deliberately sub- mitted to the people, its verdict had been of the most unmistakable character, against the views and conduct of the hon. gentle- man opposite. The verdict ought, forever, to set the question at rest. He would think that the hon. gentlemen Opposite would hardly be prepared to utter so great a slan- der against the people of this country, as to assume or declare that any gentleman with the slightest taint, upon his personal honor could receive their deliberate support as Premier of the vast, majority of the peo- ple of Canada. It was obvious that they had utterly failed in convincmg the public mind of the soundness of their views on this question, and they saw the party charg- ed with one of the greatest political crimes --the sale of ,a great public charter for personal or party interestâ€" corsidered by the people more worthy of their trust thanlhe men to whom they had recently given five years of trial. He did ‘not in- tend to say more on this subject, which he regretted had been introduced. He had made what. he hoped would be a Successful appeal to the patriotism of the hon. gentle- men. opposite. He believed they had party issues enough on which they could legiti. mately divide, without dragging down into the arena of party strife a great question that the public interest. demanded should be raised above it: and he did hope that in the future consideration of the question here and elsewhere, hon. gentlemen op- posite would feel that. they owed it to their country. even at, the sacrifice of party ir- terest. to give all the aid and co-operation that he (Mr. 'J‘upper) solicrted at their hands to the Government engaged in deal ing With this great question.
