This seems to be the state of mind of the Ottawa correspondent of theGLOBE, who appears to have nothing of more import- .auce to write about than some nonsensi- Oal and very improbable story,illustrative of the ignorance of the Conservative members for the Ontario Legislature, On Wednesday last he announces that a friend was talking to a newly-elected Opposition member for the Ontario House,about the Panama Canal scheme, and alluded to the enormous cost of the undertaking. The Conservative mem- ber opened his eyes in amazement and said “you don’t mean to say the On- tario Government propose to do that. Their extravagance is becoming un- bearable, I shall vote against the pro- posal when it is brought up in the Legislature.” Avery humorous story, no doubt, and displaying lamentable ignorance of geography. But is also altogether likely that the correspondent conceived the whole story in his own fertile imagination.

Richmond Hill Post Oflice, M. TEEFY May 10th 1880. Postmaster Education, writing, preaching and example have undoubtedly advanced the Temperance cause most wonderfully during the last thirty and even fifteen years. In Mr James Young's History of Galt, he says : THURSDAY. JUNE 17, 1880. "The opinion is frequently expressed by superficial observers, that Temper- ance has made but little progress, and that drinking with all the evils of its train, continues to be as rife , as ever. There could hardly be a greater mis- take. The locality whose history we are now narrating. may be regarded as a not unfair criterion of the whole Province, and the change in the drink- ing usages of Society, in and around Galt, within the memory of the present generation, amounts almost to a. revolu- tion. The baneful efi'ects of drunken- css are, alas, lamentable enough yet, but it is believed to be no exaggeration to say, that more liquor was consumed in Galt, during a Spring or Fall Fair day, thirty years ago, than is sold in all the present hotels in a week. There is doubtless ample room ‘for further im- provement, but it is undoubted that habits 01 sobriety have greatly increased and the social reformer, has reason to thank God, and take courage.” POST OFFICE NOTICE The Growth of Temperance. There are many reasons given as the cause of this great change, but it must be admitted, that to the moral forces mentioned at the first of this article, are due the far greater portion of credit. The old-time temperance lodges and or- ganizations are not without their bene‘ flcial influence, and the amount of good accomplished thereby in some neighbor- hoods, by a few honest, earnest, and practical men, can hardly be estimat- cu. At a meeting of the Conservative As; sociation, held at Markham Viliage on Wednesday last, Mr John Gibson was re-elected Presxdcnt, and Mr John Dun- can was appointed Sec. & Treas., Mr Bouitbce addressed the meeting in a short speech. This mode of advancing the cause is much preferable to harsh, sumptuary or restrictive laws, which so far, seem to fail in accomplishing their object, and would appear to almost injure the cause. Benjamin Carrier, the Brantford wif‘c murderer, was hanged at eight o’clock Friday morning. De Coursier, who was to be hung at Toronto, on Wednesday last, for the murder ofhis brother, took a dose of of prussic acid, supplied by some friend. on Tuesday night, and died three min- utes after. The six days walking match in Tor- onto, was concluded at 11.45, Saturday night. last.

Bad State- MORNING EVENING AS FWOWS On Friday evening last, a young man named Geo Wilson about twenty years of age, was drowned in the Mill pond at Carville, where he had gone to bathe. The day had been very warm, and the young man no doubt plunged into the cold water while in a warm and pers- piring state, causing cramps. There were two young boys with him, but from what we learn, they were not able to swim,,and could not render any assist- ance. He had been swimming around for a few minutes, and then struck out to- wards the centre of the pond, but when a short distance from shore, threw up his hands and disappeared. A number of men were soon informed of the acci- dent, and made efforts to recover the body, but they proved unsuccessful. The water was immediately let off, and the body recovered in an hour or so, near the spot where the young man sank. Deceased was a son of Mr Wil- son. Postmaster at Teston, and was well liked by all who knew him. It. is indeed, a severe blow to his aged parents, who have the sincere sympathy of their friends and neighbors in their great trouble. The funeral took place on Sunday last, and was very largely at- tended. This is the second accident of this kind which has occurred at the Carville pond. There must be some cold springs in the pond, and great care should be exercised by those who go in for a swim. The foundation of this church has been excavated, and the stone work is now being built. The memorial stones will be laid on Thursday July lat; at 3 o’clock p. 111., by the Rev. Dr. Gavan, Principal Knox’ s College, Toronto, and Dr Langstaif, Reeve of Richmond Hill. Immediately after the ceremony, tea will be provided 1n the Masonic Hall. A musical and literary entertainment will be given in the Hall, in the evening Popular singers from [To ronto, will be ipuresents.

The brick-work is already up a considerable distance, and the work is being well done.- The contract for the wood work is given to Mr Harris, and Mr Savage has the job of supplying the glass for windows, a portion of which he has sent to Belgium for. One or two windows will he sup- plied in the fluted glass, :1 very costly article, but one which greatly enhances the fine appearance of the building. Last week we announced that an old man, about 75 years of age, had been ur- rested in this village, just an hour previous to our going to press, on a charge of pass- ingr counterfeit money at Unionville. The old gentleman had purchased some spools ofthrend. plugs of tobacco, etc., at differ- ent stores, always giving a $1 bill, and re- ceiving the change. He paid for a cigar and glass of liquor at. Hall’s Hotel, and passed off another bill, and this led to his arrest. The other parties had not suspect- ed anything= but it seems Hall had read in a local paper just a day or so previous about eonnterfeits of these bills being in circulation, and on examining this bill closely, according to’ the directions given, he became convinced it was counterfeit. He traced the old gentleman to this village, arrested him. and after examination before a magistrate, committed him to the County Gaol. Murray, the Government detective, visited him on Saturday, and saw that this was the man he had been trying to arrest for over two years, and several American detectives had shadowed him for years,with- out getting any chance to prove his g-nilt' He has been in the counterfeiting line for over 40 years, and the United States Treasury Department have frequently passed his $5 counterfeits. Detective Murray induced the old man to confess his guilt, and to tell where his plates were hidden. He had resided on Hazleton Avenue, and on the Davenport Road in Yorkville for many years, and gave his name as Anderson, but. his real name is J-uhnston. On Monday last, Detectives Murray and Hodgins were guided by Johnston to the place where the plates were hidden, They went west’ ward from Yorkville. along the Davenport Road, for about a mile beyond the tollâ€"gate, ascended Well’s Hill, and entered the bush. The old man guided the detectives into the woods to a spot where the trees stood in the shape ofa triangle. After digging for some time, asmall oblong box was found. containing seven plates for counterfeiting the following bills:â€" The $1 bill he passed at Unionville was handed to us for inspection. Ninety-nine persons out of a hundred would take them every time, and would not only think them good bills. but even by comparing them wilh a genume bill would fail to find 1he diffirence unless it was pointed out The small red figures are noc so distinctly primed 0n the connterfeits, and there is an almost imperceptible white line on the neck of the figme at the left. corner. Each plate was packed very carefully. being surrounded with soft paper and cover- ed Wllll beeswax. In this covering they would be uninjured though they remained buried for several years. The value of these plates is estimated by Detective Murray at not less than $20000. He has on1y been in gaol twice in his life. It is thought that he was induced to give up his plates in hopes mat he would be allowed to spend the remainder of his life In freedom. He is supposed to be about ‘75 years of age». The Ontario Bank, $10 ; the Canadian Bank of Commerce, 355 ; the Dominion Bank, $4 ; Dominion of Canada, $1 and $2; and two sets of plates for United States legal tender and Treasury notes, $5 each. IL is almost unaccountable how such a clever criminal should allow himself to be caught so easily. He has been considered at the very head of the profession, and sold his bllls by hundreds to regular opera- 1018 all over the States and Canada. Drowned while Bathing. A Clever Counterfeiter.

The sidewalk on a portion east of the Don is especially mentioned; also the Lake Shore Road within the limits of I’arltdule; also the bridges; On the boundaries between the county or Y01k and the county of Peel. was read by the Secretary. It contained observations relating to the finances of the country, and the question of borrowing to carry on the business. There was nothing important in the matters teterred to.

Dr Langstaff addressed Vthe Committee ut considerable length, proposing a number of changes In the manner of making and keep- ing the roads in repair. lie recommended a system of contributing the judgment of the members of the Council to assist the Superintendent in devising the best method 01 keeping the roads in good order. The principal objection to the present. system was that. of scraping the surface by hand. He also objected strongly to the expense of scraping. The road should he kept high so the water would run ofl',hut the continual scraping tended to level the road and spoil it. The plan of digging away snow was also useless. Dr Laugstafl‘was listened to with attention. On motion of Mr Jackson the name of J Dollery, lst Deputy-Reeve of York town- ship, was added to the Standing Com- mittee ou Specialties.

Mr Jackson moved, seconded by Mr Luudy ,"That Mr Wilson, lute secretary treasurer of school moneys in York town- ship be heard to-morrow, Wednesday. after- noon at 1.30 o’clock for eXplanations.

The American Agricuiturist for May has the following remarks about these bat- teries. This is a thoroughly reliable journ- al, published by the Orange Judd 00., New York. and has been in existance for over 39 years. it makes a practice of ex- pousing every kind of “Humbugs,” and “Frauds,” and amongst such things, it classes these batteries. it says that. "one to merit a place here, must be an enemy to the public welfare, not merely suspected of wrong doing, but the proofs against him must be such as would convince any fair- minded mnn that the good oi the commun- ity requires his exposure. There are, and mores the pity, quit'e us many of this kind as we care to occupy ourselves with”:â€" MORE ABOUT THE BATTERIES. Elias still sends out his afl‘idavit that there “ain’t no sich pusson" as Prof J C Boyd, while we have every reason to believe there is such a. per- son, for have we not his circulars, and is not his name upon them ? And he calls himself a Proâ€" fessor, andhe does PBOFESS at a remarkable rate. One correspondent writes that he would expect a piece “cut from the end of an ear of corn" to do as much good as one of these batteries, and he is right. It is a remarkable illustration of the power of the imagination that people who wear these things think they perceive an effect from them. It is utterly absurd to supnose that wear- ing any combination of metals that may be put together in the form of a medal can send any electricity into the body. These batteries and the claims made for them, show an entire lack knowledge of the most elementary laws of elec- tricity. ()f the two we like Boyd's the best, as he , in explaining his battery, says : ”That the var- ‘ ions blocks of metal were so placed, that When the electricity was formed it would be formed in gimlet shape,“ and that it would “pass on twistâ€" ing." If we are to have electricity, let it he by all means of the “doubled and twisted" sort. The eccentric Rafinesque once sent a paper to “Silli- man’s Journal,"describing 15 species of lightning Had he lived in Boyd‘s time he could have added the “gimlet pointed," and thus made 16 species. I But1 these New York Batteries must step aside, all MAKE ROOM FOR A BOSTON BATTERY. Here comes Doct. Dye, who unites with his buttery an absorption pad. Electricity sends disease out of the body, and the pad uhsmbs it before it can go back again. But we can‘t help thinking whut a dangerous thing that pad must be after it has gone absorbing for a while. 'A's the same circular informs us: “It Will not Wear out" and as we are given nearly the whole en tu- logue of diseases which 1 twill nbsord, we think that the Boards cf Health should look after these old pads. VVhst is said above about the battery, was written after an examination of the circular and its engravings. Since then We have procured the thing itself, and finds it even EL worse {mud than at first supposed. It consists of IL central piece of copper one sixteenth of an inch thick, with a scalloped edge ; in the middle of this piece is a circular hole plugged with a. hit of white metal. Around this copper center are sm allmetul discs of two sizes and of three kinds, M1 nnged as shown in the engraving, where the dark portions indicate copper, the shaded ones brass while the light portions are of some white metelâ€"but not having a, blow-pipe or chemicals at hand, we can not say what kind of textâ€"pot stuff it is. These 14 pieces are set in 11. white 111 etelring. into which they are crowded, and are held in place by frict- ion ; though We are not sure but the larger white discs have a. minute touch of solder. We have been thus particular in showing how the thing is made, as those who have but the most elemen- tary knowledge of electrical action will see at once that it is absolutely IMPOSSIBLE FOR ANY ELECTRICITY to be generatedâ€"that is, any free electricityâ€" With these different metals in absolute contact, unless indeed it may be of the “gin'llet-point-ed” kind, a style unknown to science, however it may be to “Professor" Boyd. There is no more de- velopument of electrical action between these bits of metal than there is between the coins in one’s pocketâ€" and We pronounce the thing to be There is one melancholy feature in the expor ure of such successful humbugsâ€"for, so far as the numbers sold go, this has been a. successâ€" tlmt is, the comment it suggests upon the in- tolligence ofthe community. We make boasts of our popular education, of the general intelli- gnuce of the people, and all the rest of it. Yet he1e is a. thing. in its structure violutina the simplest laws of science, bought and worn by hundreds who deliberately assert that they can feel its olectiicul action and claim to be hone- fitted or cured by it.

AN INFLUX or MANUFACTURERS. â€"Mr John Abell, of the Woodbridge Agricultural Works, has ofiered t0 purâ€" chase a portion of the land on the south side of King street of west of Strachan street. The terms and condition of his offer are that he receive the land at the rate of $51,700 per acre,the purchase money to be secured by mortgage, pay- able within ten years from date of conâ€" veyance, and to bear interest at six per cent. from the 1st of January, 1881, on the balance from time to time unpaid. Mr Abell on his part agrees to enter a bond to erect manufacturing buildings on the land to the value of $15,000 or $20,000 within two years from the hat of January next, and to move his agriâ€" cu‘ltural works from Woodbridgc to the manufactory so erected, and that acâ€" cording to the season from 75 to 125 men will be employed therein. The agreement contains a proviso that if Mr Abell fails to fulfil these conditions at the end of the two years he will reâ€" convey the land back to the city, nayâ€" ing taxes and interest in the meantime. This is only one of the many indications that the manufacturers of the country are awaking to the fact that in Toronto such facilities for the carrying on of large manufacturing establishments are afforded as to make it desirable to move from outlying places into the city. On portions of the same block of land the Massey Manufacturing Company, and the Toronto Bridge. Company have re~ cently established large concerns.â€" GLOBE.
