MORNING E V E Nil NG AS FOLLOWS Postmaster “7:30 7:30 W 1th all our veneration for this good man, we must state that there is every reason to believe that W. D. has told the truth, and wherein our good friend diff- ers from his statement, that our good friend is a little astray. We see no reason to doubt \V. D’s word. He, his brother Edward, and the other hand have always borne good characters whilst In reply to this letter of \V. 1)., the Liberal man devotes a leading article, about one column in length, in his last issue. The substance of the article might be put in half-a-dozen lines: It says that W. D. does not tell the truth. that his late employer, the kind-hearted, humble, charitable, meek and lowly, benevolent, good Samaritan. who is writing the article, always tells the truth, and NEVER does any wrong,â€" no never. This world is just hanging back for such men as these. Millions of heathens, men, women and children, are appealing in pitious cries for mission- aries to come and teach them the beau- ties of a character similar to that poss- essed by our friend. What a dreadful mistake this good man made when he went into the newspaper line. With the generous and saintly disposition he possesses, the heathen would have clung' to him like a long-lust brother, and in-‘ stead of trying to injure the characters of three young boys ; instead of publish- ing them over‘the country as everything that 18 bad, and ruining them for life ; instead of forcing them into a downward track ', instead of pounding them when they were down, he might have become, a‘bright and shining light amongst the Sene-gambians, or the Ho-ang-hoes ; or he might have . made a meal for the Yungâ€"chi hi-hies,â€"so to speak. The Liberal is going clean daft] About a month ago we published a localitem of some two or three lines” announcing that the Liberal hands. had struck, and that another hand had been engaged to take their place, there being a llittle excitement aroused in the mean- time. If the item was untrue, the Liberal should have stated so, and left us to defend it, as we were, and are now prepared to do. But instead of contra- dicting the the truthfulness ofthe item, a printer who was engaged after the strike, allowed his initials to appear at the bottom of a long letter, which was remarkable for nothlng but praise of the writer, his employer, and abuse of the late employees. We suppose the letter was written by the person who signed his initials to it. If it was, that young man possesses an amount of assurance sufiieient to supply any two companies of the Canadian Volunteers, and leave a fair margin for his own benefit ; it is plain to be seen that he has no small opinion of his own ability ; at the same time he shows his undisguised contempt for every other person against whom he may happen to entertain a feeling of dis- like. This, of course, is somewhat amus- ing in such a youthful and rather in- congruous personage. But he does not confine himself to selflaudation. He 1 also endeavors to be- little or injure those twhom he superseded, and in so doing, ‘ does not hesitate to state what 1s untrue. It was very unkind, not to say un- l Christian-like. The abuse was entirely ‘ uncalled for. The printers he was mak- : ing such disereditable insinuations about and accusing of such discreditable actions had never injured him in any way ; had never attempted to give publicity to any of his faults or blemishes, and, if they did not like the manner in which their employer had treated them, they did not even seek to say or do anything like- ly to reflect against his business or char- acter. But, both this printer, who signs himself“J. A.,” and his employer, pour- ed out, in concert, such a. torrent of abuse and low insinuations, and so ex- hausted all forms of courtesy, as to place themselves beyond the utmost bounds of social and literary decency. What had the three boys, lately employ- ed at that oflice, done to deserve this treatment .9 Absolutely nothing. They simply refused to work for the wages l that the supposed proprietor of the Libeml wished them to. They were . not to blame in this, and they have all subsequently secured situations at a much larger wage per week then they wanted here. The only thing left to l these young men by way of retort, and the only thing that would probably des- cend to the same level as their tladueers was to accuse them of having just escap- ed from penitentiary, or that their moth- ers were ,LYLLlie habit of stealing , clothes ,from the wash. But, in reply, one of the boys alluded to, “W. D.,” publish: ed a letter in the HERALD in ‘which‘ he' denied the statements of both his late employer and the printer now engaged at the Libeml office. If he used some. what severe language. his accusers de- served it, and brought it on themselves ; and'moreover, we are assured that all his statements are true. We are also informed, that our assertion regarding the “strike” is true, and the Liberal man may as well admit that such was the case. W. D’s letter clearly showed that the Liberal man and his parasitical cm- ploy as were greatly to blame in publish- ing the article they did ,it also pshowed that their statements could not- possibly be true and that they were actuated only by malicious and unworthy motives in seeking to give these boys :1 bad name. It is shameful to think that even the the editor of the Liberal would seek to take revenge on boys, in such a malici- ous manner ; would publish them over the country as untrustworthy, and make such dreadful insinuations about their morality. We gave him credit, and it is possible that others did too, for hav- ing more principal, more charity, more Christianity, if you will, than to resort to such disgraceful and unmanly weap- ens.

Both sides can lay off for refreshments for an hour or two, occasionally, by mutual agree- ment. Size and kind of fish caught are not considered, only the weight. I am assured that the match is a bonaâ€"fide one, and will come OK on Tuesday at the hour mentioned. After the fish are duly weighed, the losing side will have to cook a suflicient number to provide supper for the whole party. We exâ€" pect a large attendance.

Still we can not say his morals are superior to those of the boys he so strongly condemned. These young men were Well liked by every person in this village and neighborhood, and we have yet to learn of their doing a dis- graceful act, Our good friend had better leave the boys alone. He was foolish to attempt. to injure them, and he is still more foolish to keep at it. With regard to the nice little enm- pliment he pays a member of our staff, he his welcome to just keep right along at it, until the harvest is past, and the summer 13 ended. Bless the dear man, does he suppose that the party he is so complimentary to, pays the slightest at- tention to anything that HE may say about him,personally. Not by any means, but we take a deep interest in theLibeml man, and notwithstanding the breach of professional etiquette, of which this good man is guilty, we Wlll still watch over him, advise, counsel and reprimand as is necessary, and eventually we may induce him to go and minister to the little Sene-gambians. But, outsiders, not knowing the man, can not help but think his mind is weakening when HE undertakes to lecture the HERALD. if the same alarming symptoms are continu- ed, we will not be surprised to hear it still more frequently repeated that "the Liberal is going clean daft."

Markham and lVeston are not repreâ€" sented in the list. No candidate from these schools having succeeded in passâ€" ing. Richmond Hill High School there fore leads the whole County, , as New- market has only one successful candiâ€" date. Richmond Hill stands even with St. Thomas, Goderich, Bowmanville, St Mary’s,Calcdonia and Oshawa, and is ahead of Pickering, St. Michael’s Col- lege, Uxbridge, Ingersoll, Ottawa, and Port. Perry. It will therefore be seen that. Rich- mond Hill School stands far ahead of any other in the County, and many other schools in large tolwns and cities, While it. is equal to many of the leading schools in the Province. It must be very satisfactory to the Trustees and Teachers, as well as the parents and relatives of the pupils, to see this school meeting with such success. As we have before observed the teachers, Mr No better facilities for acquiring High School education can be found than in this village, and we congratulate the pupils who have done so well at the matriculation examination. We hope they will be even more successful all through their University Course, and afterwards when mingling in the great school of life. In the Honor List, we notice the names of Teasdale and Sisley, Class II, Mathematics; and Cherry, Class II, Inglish. The Newmarket candidate does not figure in the Honor List. The following is a list of the candi- dates from the High School in the County of York, who passed the recent Matriculation Examination in the Uni- versity of Toronto. in the Faculty of Arts, together with the schools at which they were trained.

I might say, Mr Editor, in justice to the HERALD, that it never seemed to expect tickets, although you might thankfully have accepted them. And 1 have generally observed the HERALD was represented at all socials of whatever kind, and I frequently noticed that the fee Was paid‘ without any grumbling or hesitatioin If the LIBERAL wants a few Strawberries or cakes, on even some cream at the expense of the v Presby- terians, if he is too small to contribute 10 cents once in a while towards building a church, and receive all he can eat. in berries etc., then let him come around when the socials are just. about over, every evening. Let him come in quietly after the croWd has gone. and the Presbyterians will give him all he can eat for nothing.1t won’t cost him om: (mm, and they won’t even ASK him for a notice. They provide largely and in abundance, and can always find enough left to satisfy the whola LIBERAL staff. Hoping he will act on this suggesuon, or refrain from casting such unmerited re- proaches against any body or society, I am yours very truly. A PRESBYTERIAN. Richmond Hill, July 28th, 1880. A Markham Doctor Found Dead. Now, it anpea1s teasonable to expect that the LIBhRAL, holding the views quoted above, should have immediately published the attiele 111 question But there was never a word said about “courtesies (vfthe Press.” When severalweeh‘s'had expired, and the Presbyterians had held one or two socials, without inviting the LIBERAL man, I expect he suddenly awoke toi see that there was “something rotten Denma1k.” Itis easy to see the motives 'which influenced the writer of the article. I remember other churches uaed to hold socials. I wonder if the LIBERAL man was specially invited to them, and :if’ he pad. The amount, is socontenrptibly small, some IO cents. that only a “Worlen,” as the Scotch say, would ever grumble about paying it. 'lhe Presbyterians are the only petsons now holding socials, and the inuendo is too direct not to be apparent. The LIBERAL is elearly annoyed at; this church, can it be because it failed to get the bills for the corner stone laying. Another evidence of a small mind. Sumâ€"Under this heading the LIBERAL of last week grumbles greatly because it is “only invited to one in six of every concert and place of amusement,” and attributes this to either “t‘orgetf‘ulness, indifference or ignorance of the courtesies due the press.” He wants complimentary tickets, and does not care about attending socials and con- certs unless they are given. To a certain extent the LIBERAL is right enough, If notices are looked for before and after an entertainment, it is but reasonable to sup- pose tliat those who have the management of these affairs, should reimburse the news- paper man in someway, to: his outlay i"; endeavoring to l'lirflller “their interests, or see that he sqstaiiié nor-loss; ‘. ~‘13111.~ ‘thre «he t4111112117111; mikes" 11' mistake is in threatening 1101 to notice such festivities, unless a: ticket is fonhcoming.

Eckardt, of Unionville, left his home to attend. a patlent on lot 7, con. 5th, Mark- ham. Apparently he was enjoying his usual good health. when he arrived at the house. After being there a few minutes. he picked up a paper and sat. down to read it. A short time after he was called by one of the members of the family, but did not 1eply. On examin- ation it was found lhat a far more powerâ€" ful and mysterious messenger had called him, and the Doctor had passed away from earth. Death is supposed to have been caused by paralysis of the heart. On Thursday morning last, a few mlnutes before t‘wclve o’clock, Mr. Wm. Storey, who is emplbyed , as a Wood- worker in Trench's Carriage building establishment, cuthisleg in a frightful manner. With a 'broad-axe. He was trimming a piece of wood, when the axe slipped and came with great force on the inside ofhis light leg, just below the knee cap. Itcut through both the cords and muscles in that part of the human frame, clean to the bone. He was immediately taken home, and DrJfl. Langstaif called in. Mr b'torey has suffered greatly for some days, and been compelled to keep hisvbed, only being able to get up for an‘hour or two. He was greatly improved on Monday. but did not feel so well on Tuesday. Under the Doctor’s careful t’rcatment,however, he expects to be around again and at work very soon. We sincerely" hope it will not be long before he is complete- ly recovered. ’ The Doctor wins for many years one the most prominent and influential men in that section, and his sudden death Will be much regretted, as he was Wide- ly known, and highly respected.

Last week Mr J. W. Elâ€" liott, agent for this machine for York township, cut and bound for‘MessrsJohn Roach. Joseph Watson. M’rs- Moore and Wm Boake, in West York, some 50' acres of grain, in four days. The maâ€"-- chine will out and bind at the rate of" from 12 to 18 acres a day. There is no' raking or binding required after the machine. It does its work complete. There was a large number of farmers present while Mr Elliott was working with the machine and they all expressed themselves highly pleased with the excelâ€"1 lent work done: It cannot fail to beâ€" come popular with the farmers, and it' has many great advantages over the wireâ€"binding machine. The Toronto Reaper & Mower 00., are the manufacâ€" turers and Mr Simon Proctor is the agent for this part of the County. ‘ FUNERALâ€"The remains of the late George Soules were followed to the grave in the Presbyterian Cemetery, on Thursday afternoon last by a very large number of friends and acquaintances. The procession was one of the largest ever seen in this village. Many persons from Toronto, Unionvillc, Thornhill. and neighboring villages and townships were present. The pailâ€"bearers were Messrs. W Trench, I Crosby, W. Atâ€" kinson, J Sanderson, J Brown, and P G. Savage. Previous to the last sad rites being performed the remains were taken into the Presbyterian Church, and the Rev Mr Addison, of the C- M. Church, delivered a very impressive ser- mon from the text, Rev. 14 chap, 13 verse, “Blesssed are the dead which die in the Lord.” All that was mortal of our departed brother wast‘hen consigned to the last resting place, and the earth soon covered from the view of the sorâ€" roviring relatives, even the casket wherein. he for whom they mourned was so quiet-- ly sleeping. The firemen will meet for practice, at the Fire Hall, on Frlday evening next. Let all endeavor to be present. The boys are doing good work, analI we hope they will stick to it, notwithstanding the left-handed compliments given by the Liberal man, who advises them to mov'e around a little livelier. It is a very pleasant thing to stand with your hands in your pockets, and criticize and censure those Who are hard at work. but it would-show more of the man to take hold of the brakes, and do your best. This will apply to some other people besides the one who gives the fire- men such unnecessary advice in the columns of his paper. Miss West. of Yorkville. is visiting her friends in this village.

STEPHENS A very pleasant evening was enjoyed on Fridav. 16th inst.7 at the residence of Mrs Campbell. in this village. bya large number of her friends. She has attained the advance age of80 years. and still re- tains the pleasant. cheerful manner which has so endeared her to the many former pupils, who resided with and were instructed by her. Her children, grandchildren and a. number of her former pupils were present. Many pleasing selections of vocal and in- strumental music were rendered in an ex- cellent manner by the visitors present. We hope Mrs. 'Campbell and her friends may have many more such pleasant re- unions. gm “gdvcrtmmwtz. REMfiVED "E KETTLE LOST LOCAL ITEMS. THE MARKETS. General Blacksmith, BLACKSMITH SHOP.
