The American journals have been in- dustriously circulating the statement for months that Canadians were immigratâ€" ing in thousands to “the Greatest Reâ€" public the ‘world ever saw.” The United States officials at Port Huron published a documcnuin support of this statement. The Opposition papers in - .Cauada, having no better business on hand, joined their American friends in this unputriotic work, and by this time woéld have the wholeicountry depopulat- xed,.if their statements are true. People have been wondering where all the emigrants came froru,'who tccmed across ,thc border. It is new explained. The n‘fiortsHuron ofiicial's-‘figurcs have been «investigated, and the man has been - found out in a lie, ores the official way or putting it is “his statement is a fabrication, so gross as to establish an impossibility without even a semblance of probability.

COUNTY COUNCIL- vPO LITlGS 1H It Is but right to mention that some of our County Councillors did not forget their duty, and the fact that they repre~ canted different opinions. on political questions. . At the vote taken in the Council on the Syndicate resolution, we notice that some members. nelraincd from giving expression to their opinion. We believe they did quite right. If these political dodges are allowed to go on un- checked, our township councils and School boards will also soon have heated discussions over- Dominion issues and motions and counter-motions be carried . The following is the vote on the Synâ€" dicate motion, in the County Council censoring the Government. A straight rty vote, as far as it goes, and yet it is paraded before the County as an unbiased, impartial vote. Yeasâ€",Messrs. Hamilton, Rowen, "Lundy, Speight, Gibson, Winchester, Beesor, Secor.

This disgraceful sport is practiced in Toronto and the immediate uerghbor~ hood of that city, without any obstruct~ ion from the authorities: Indeedfit is boldly hinted by the Toronto World. that some of the detectives take a hand in the sport, as well as M, P,_P.’s and other prominent Citizens. prising paper had a report of a , cocking main which took place at Victoria Park on Thursday night last, where all the sports of Toronto and Buffalo were present. The World calls on the police, commissioners for an explanation, and says the Attornechneral should look into the matter. viding for poor and indigent persons therefore appears to be the best, cheap-~ est and most impartial scheme yet deâ€" vised, and our Councillors are to be commended for the prompt action taken to establish such an institution. NOTES. The death of Dr William Harkin, M P. P., whilst attending his duties at the Legislative Ilall, Friday afternoon, will be received with feelings of deepest reâ€" gret by those who were favored with his acquaintance. He was attacked by apo plcxy and dicd‘before he could be remov- ed from the House, which was at once adjourned. The Dr. was a native Cana- dian and 50 years of age. He studied medicine at McGill- college, graduating there in 1858. He was first elected to the Legislature for Prescott in 1875, and again at the last general election, both times as an opponent of the present government. To the members of his family his death will be a severe' and painful blow. Two members of the house of com-â€" mons were unseatcd by the supreme court on Friday, and one of them disâ€"- qualified. Bellechassc, was a Liberal, and was susâ€" tained in his seat by the court below. The other member, Mr Perrault, of Charlevoix, was a Conservative. and was elected on the death of Mr Tromblay, a Liberal.

The Attorney-General stated in the, house on Friday last, in answer to a question, that if tenders are found to be within the amount contemplated the government will commence the new parliament buildings this year. We would suggest that in revising the plans an office should: be provided for the lieu- tenant-governor, and that any extra cost incurred should be met by the sale of government house and grounds. Why should the province of Ontario provide a palatial residence for the lieutenant- governor, or continue paying large sums every year for its maintenance ? It is a piece of absurd extravagance. World. Village Council. Richmond Hill, Feb. 14m 1881. The-Council met in the Council Chamber on Monday evening lust. She Reeve in the chair and Messrs Redditl, Pugsley and Sander-son present. A protest was received from Mr. O’Brien in reference to the appointment of Mr. J. Elliott. as Assessor. A rebate was made of overpaid taxes by Mrs Maxwell.

The same was passed, showing a balance in Treasurer’s hands of $2l0.13 up to 3Ist Dec. 1880. Mr Sanderson euâ€" quired as to the steps taken in regard to the incorporating of the fire company. A discussion arose as to the matter ofthe liability to pay the Pound Keeper the rent ofhrs place, he refusing to act as same. I No final decision was arrived at.

WOODBRIDGE- (From our own Correspondent) Woodbridge, Feb. 15lh, 1881 The sudden disappearance of one of our village mercnnnls last week has been the principal talk amongst the villagers. He left home will) the intention of going to Toronto to settle some little bills which he owed, but has not yet turned up. He had a considerable amount of money with him, and has left a wife and lour children. The youngest one was only about a week old when he made his departure. The children are all girls, and because the last one was not a boy. he thought he would dig out. That is the only cause that can be account- ed for his Exit. The rains of last week caused the River Humberto rise to a great height, and it was thought the ice would break up and make a large flood. but John Frost came along and brought it down to nearly its former size. The Extract and Shoddv Mills are runn-~ ing night and day, and the poor rugs are catching it: right and left.
