Many persouS‘who' strongly sympaâ€" thize with the frish tenautry, in the hardships endured by them;and admired Parnell as a bold and' determined lead- er who was doing all in his power to alleviate the wants of his countrymen, have become someWhat disgusted with the course he is now pursuing. The tights and murders which are becoming more common and numerous every day, are without doubt, the direct result of this agitator’s appeai to the passions of' the tenants.- Irishman are noted all the World Over for preferring to fight a ques- tion out sooner than reason or argue it, according to the mode of the canny Scot, and one cannot help feeling that f’arnell, who Was Well aware of this little weakness" of his countrymen, is re- sponsible forJ tile destruction done 'by the torch to which he applied the match. No reasonable person will find fault with ?arnell for usmg what influence and power he may possess and control in the House of Gommons, to better the condition of Ireland. But he has not done so. When Beaconsfield was Premi er he could not expect that his tactics of blocking legislation would win any favors from that party. But when Glad- stone came to take charge of the nation’s afi'airs. surrounded by men who have shown a strong disposition to do all in reasonand justice for Ireland, ' Parnell embarrassed their action, and opposed instead of assisting them. Gladstone is an honest politician, and is willing to assist Ireland in every possible manner, consistent with justice and reason. But he finds strong opposition from the English and Scotch members, who do not approve of the murders which Parâ€" n‘ell and his agents have caused, and are apparently desirous of seeing continued. These actions will alienate the sympathy of Iieland’s best friends, one of whom Parnell is not, and indeed, it is questionable if he is not that un- happy country’s worst enemy. The saddest feature of all this trouble is that the Orangemen,' in self defence, are Becoming aroused; and threats are made to kill two Reman‘Catholics for every Protestant. This is the old story over again. We are pleased‘t’o see that the Pope and many Irish’ Bishops and priests strongly condemn the‘ Land League, a‘nd Parnell’s agents. But ifthe Orange- men and Catholics get at logger heads» the former will not stop to think that the authorities of the Catholic Church are in no way responsible for the trouble. Fearful scenes of' bloodshed and brutal- ity will be witnessed, and after being o‘ver-run with soldiers, the turbulent spirits wtll again’be crushed, and the last state of Ireland worse than the first.- What a pity that Irishmeu canâ€" not fight for their rights in a constituâ€" tlonal manner. They have never gainâ€" ed anything by bloodshed, but only suc- ceeded in arousing the distrust of their friends, who would have done something for them’: Ireland must learn that it cannot cuntiol 'England, and that it will benefit More by a calm'and reasonable course, than by scenes and acts which would better became savages.

WEIGHTS AND MEASUREsaâ€"Iuspecâ€" tors Bolster and Bowman of Toronto. are after the illegal weights and meaâ€" sures men prettyjsharp. They have broken and destroyed about one thousâ€" 1 and Illegal weights. The dealers are‘ very angry about it, when they have to‘ pay a fine of $20 and costs, for having l the articles around the premises, whethâ€"l er'they use them or not. Inspector J ‘J__Cosgrove,of this village. is making the merchants stand around in Simeoe, and said merchants are loud in their complaints. But it is for the publics benefit, and the Inspectors are only doing their duty. We would advise every merchant or dealer around here, to see that there are no illegal weights or measures around their premises, as they are just as liable to a fine as if they used them. The Inspector may drop in, and there will be some more grumbline. BUSINESS CHANGE. -â€"â€"MrAW Rupert. one of' the leading and most enterprising merchants 10 Maple, has purchased the interest of Mr Watson in the business formerly conducted by the firm of Watâ€" son & Rupert, and announces to his many friends and customers by his Fall Circular, that he intends hereafter to carry on business on the cash systemn. That he will be enabled to sell goods at a much lower price than than those who do business In the old style, there can be no doubt, He will not sufler loss through bad debts, .as is always the case when an extensive business is done on old credit system. Our readers in that neighborhood will therefore see that Mr Rupert offers great inducements to purchasers. He has received a large stock 01 ”Fall and Winter Goods which have been purchased at great advantage, and will be disposed of at exceedingly small margin above cost; An inspection is‘solicitedz' ' STREET Cnossmes.»About the cool- est thing we have heard of for some time was the application made to the Council on Monday evening, by our friend across the road, for a crossing be- tween his store and the Hinh School. There is a crossing but a few steps to the north, but‘our friend is not satisfied with that. He should have asked the Council to pass a. reselution compelling the scholars to patronize his store, and his only, whether he got a crossing or not. Of course it makes no difference to the farming community how many crossings there are. The farmers rather enjoy going over a crossing with a heav- ilyâ€"loaded angon. It. is no injury to the waggon, and the jolt is somewhat exhilarating. But the idea of having crossings every few feet, is simply ridiv culous, and we fancy the County authorities would not permit of it, even if the Council were willing,â€"and they do not seem to he.

Such a statement is not cor.rect Here are the correct figures. Nobleton 296?, 36th Batt., 350, 12111 Bath, 335, Beeton: 240. It is also stated in the same article that Mr Toulman. one of the iudges, was in favor oi giving the prize to the 12th; Such is not the cnse, and as regards the stateâ€" ment in the same article, “The large numâ€" ber ofspectators at once concluded that the I2th would come OH“ with flymg colors" is a mistake, just the reverse was the case. After the second tune was played, it was» the belief of a great many present, that the 36th would cmry 03' the prize. which they c116, and they well deserved it too. But as regards the leader of the 12th enterv i115: a protest, he might just as well save his wind and use it in the next competition. To the Editor of the Herald.
