There was no necessity to mention anything about “ his little Weakness.” The writer acknowledges that Sir John was not intoxicated, but he only does so in orderthat he may get a chance to stick in one of his poisoned arrows about “his little weakness.” Notice the contemp- tible alluswn to one of the most bril- liant and successful Banquets ever held in Canada, where he mennons the Que- bec“ “pree. This exhibition of the lun- guage and mind ofa mounrebank can be passed over in silence, for what it is worth. Notlce also the malignant insin- uatlon that "Sir John maintained his equilibrium “Hill the chances of ex- posure were past." The_intenlion is plainly "503W? tho _readers.to understand: “The guest of the evening did not have 'to be carried or helped from the Banquet Hall before the proceedings were half over, as has been the case so often in the past, and therefore, in this respect, it did not terminate in the grand fizzle that the Quebec spree did. (Bir John managed to overcome his little weakness for once, and maintained his equilibrium - until the chances of ex- posure were past." - ‘ The despicable motives which sway this writer are apparent m the following extract from last. week’s editorial. And here we may mention that the ca:- igation he received 1n the HERALD on account of an abusive article on the Quebec Banquet has had some slight ef- fect. for the better. Desperate diseases require desperate remedies, and are desâ€" perate hard to eradicate. Referring to Sir John, hevsuys. [fa man's language or diction can be considered, as affording the slighest in- dication of his peculiar character, then vie should s'ay'the writer of the article on “the OttawaBanquet”in the LIBERAL of last week, has certainly‘taken Peck- snift‘ as the highest type of human mor- ality. The nature of the two men heiiig constitutionally similar, to a great degree, :it‘has preien an easy matter for the latterâ€"day saint or disciple to sucâ€" cessful 1y follow in the footsteps of his great master. He has not even the one redeeming feature of that perfect old hypocrite, however, as he seeks to in-4 jureend malign. others, not to benefit himseliflo‘nly, but for the pure love of traducing his fellowâ€"beings. If this is not the case, we are unable to discover what motive could prompt such unjust, unmanly and 1111 charitable accusations and Insiuuations against one who, what- ever his faults may be, occupies such a high positiondn thecountry, and is so prominent in the administration of our afiairs that any damaging accusations brought against his character. whether true or untrue, must also reflect veryi unfavorably to the credit of the country. , But, when, as is the case, we have time and time again pointed out the untruth miness. .of their charges, and clearly shown that to no other than a malignant motive could they be ascribed, withoutl eve _1 witnessing a retraction or explanaâ€" tion of the error,we must feel warranted in classing the writer a grade lower than the individual so faithfully portrayed by l the author of Martin Chuzzewit, 2151 combining 1n his character the most selfâ€"righteous, self complacent, malig- nant, hypocritical, mean, sordid, attri- butes that ever mingled together in one specimen of our common humanity-' We do not mean that this disciple of? the supremely virtuous and kind- hearted E architect pessessee a mercenary nature, although some are unkind enough to hint , that it is true, but we do say that in certain peculiar‘ idiosyncrasies the old gentleman would himself, even in his, palmi'cst days, have recognized'a gifted ; fellow- mind and would have almost been willing to for once forget himself, and give this disciple the highest place How much this abdicatiouvwould cost, or how great the sacrifice, only one of simi‘ar tempemment could estimate, and we leave it to the man who 1s so apt; and so reliablein estimating the worth and merit of our public men. mun,“ “Ln/Al _ “r.

Sir John Macdonald will not be held up by his warmest friends or his most ardent admirers, as a. perfect statesman much less a perfect man, and none know his faults and failings better than he dOes himself, and none are more ready to acknowledge them, but take him all in all the Impartial verdict of history will be that be well deserved the high and honorable position to which, his country raised him, and that he held the high position of' leader ofthe Cana- dian people by virtue of superior worth and ability. The Conservatives 0t Ot- tawa in honoring him have done honor to themselves, and are also deserving of the thanks of the people of Canada. “It might be better if we had polit- cians and statesmen who were immacu- late, but as we have not immaculate material to choose from, we cannot get them, and it is rbetter that instead 30f eudeavoring to destroy‘whatis good in our political life, we should, for the sake of that good, heat with what is blame- able. The Banquet to Sir John partook of a national more than party importance. It was an enthusiastic token that he still possessed the respect and confidence of the leading men of our country, who were assembled there from all sections It showed that theiâ€"policy of his govern- ment was also cordially and heartily en- dorsed, and that through evil and good report, though his enemies might attempt to lightly destroy his reputation, the hearts of the people were still true to him. The following sentiments of an independent and patriotic mind is in striking contrast v with the miserable, scurrilous outpouring of the lirejudiced writer for the LIBERAL:â€" , Such-~ accusations are also cowardly, because the writer must know they are lso much beneath the slandered that he loannot afford to notice them. One of ‘the first essentials to the success of a journal is reliability, and it would be a creditto the whole class if the writers of a l'ew unreliablejournals weretreated like that creature. Rosenburgbof London Pdlice Court notoriety. The LIBERAL writer also says “It must be very latter- ing to the Queen to have as one of her privy Councillors a man who so often descends to the level of the inebriate." It is useless to seek to awaken the con- science 'of that writer, to a sense of the sh’amef‘ul‘ n'a‘ure of his slanders. We give it up. He who is capable of heap- ing such an indignity upon that Gracious Lady, our Beloved Queen, of imputing that common inebriates are fit associates for her, fit membes ol' the Privy Council nâ€"the highest office in her giltâ€"he is, well he is a Pariah, “he is ostracised from civilized and respectable society. Words fail us in endeavoring to depict‘ the “true inwardness’ of such a charao ‘ ter. ' that "he did not maintain his equili- brium after the chances of exposure were past." Such language is the last resort of: bitter, bigoted, petty mind. No’one worthy of the name of man, would or could speak in that way of Sir John Macdonald, who has occu- pied the foremost place zinaxho Domi- nion since its foundation, and in old Canada for ‘ niany years previous. Acct 1ding to the natural fitness of things a being; capable of such contemptiblo utterances woiild only be carrying out the sneaking proclivities of his nature, if he had been down at Ottawa Banquet ing Hall with his miserable body crawl- ing alengthe floor, and his ear applied to the crack under the door, trying to see whether Sir John still maintained his equilibriuui.
