Sir John Macdonald has returned home again, looking well and evidently very well pleased with himself, and the whole situation generally. In another column will be found his idea of English opinion regarding Canada, and the way he sums it up, is no doubt very true. It is very/satisfactory to hear that the country never stood so well before. There are some who profess to feel so independent that they do not care what English opinion is, but they do not really mean it. We want the good opinion of our neighbors and every country in Europe, and the better we are known and understood, the better opinion there will be regarding us. Canada will yet be the home of many thousands from Europe, and it is our interest to keep our name faiily before Kiln/world, asa prosperous and he“ ppy' people. Sir John may well feel pleased with the present state of afl'airs, as he has contributed greatly to bring about such a pleasant condition.

Postmaster It will be interesting to hear what the speakers at the pieâ€"nic to day think about the tariff and the Syndicate. One thing they must admit that the country is in a flourishing condition. We "do ‘not suppose any one wishes to claim that this is owing alone and strictly to the present Government, although some country Reform papers make foolish statements to that effect. The strongâ€" est friend of the Government only claims that they made an effort to benefit the country, that they wished to raise the revenue and at the same time encour- age home industries. Mr. Blake and his friends may easily find fault, any one can do that, but it will take a good deal of talk, and a great many pic-nice to convince the people that the present Government is not an improvement on the one they succeeded. POST OFFICE NOTICE No. 16: THURSDAY. SEPT. 22, 1881. The business outlook strikes the Dun ‘ Wiman mercantile agency people as being particularly satisfactory. The report of failures for the first half of the present your ' shows that there have been on‘y about hafl ‘ (the number of failures that there were last T year in the same time, and the liabilities‘ have been nothing like as great. '1 he re-‘ port says "that in extent the busiress of the country has maintained a magnitude never before reached is beyond question ; that its I productive power is greater than ever before . is equally evident; the ability of the cor.- sumer to absorb and pay promptly has in-t creased, while evidences abound on every hand ofa growth in wealth and material re-5 sources equalled by no other country in the ‘ world.” This is very flattering. But a. note of warning is sounded. The tendency under such circumstancrsis to extend the: line of credit; very rapidly. “The facility 1 with which weak and unsound applicants obtain goods. and the growing increase in v the time and ease of the terms of credit,are t particularly noticeable. These are the first l signs of a possibility of revulsion. which ‘ some fear must come from the extraordinary : expansion which has occurred everywhere in the last eighteen months.” The tempta- tion to extend business is great, when the times are good. But this is the critical period. Prudence points to the avoidance of conditions, without which disaster is ‘ impossible ; thus for instance, “the expan- sion into unwise and injndicious credits ; the l locking up in unavailable Shape of capital necessary for business, the increase of bilsl- ness and personal expenses, and above all l the growth of indebtedness.” These are l the rocks to be avoided while the tide of prosperity is coming in. Canada can hard“ 17 claim to be as prosperous as the United ‘ States. but it is apparent that. some of the waves of returning prosperity must rr ll over the imaginary bonndry line that divides the ‘ two countries. If the customs houses were abolished Canada would enjoy the com“ rnercisl revival of the States to the full, in~ stead of in driblets. t GRAVENHURST STM'mN, Sept. 16.~â€"The Woodstock Lumber (‘0. ’5 mill stock, about; th1ee milhons, h 1s been elitiicly consumed 'lhe stock helonvs Lo McDonogh.

In a little time, if the people of Canada remained true 10' the Govern- ment which had. worked this prosperity, they would have factories all over the coun- ,try, furnishing employment to men, women, ‘and children. The meeting had been call- ‘ed by Mr. N. Clarke Wallace, whom they ,all knew. Mr. Wallace had served his iconmituents laithfullv during the years he lhad occupied a seat in the House ofParlia- j'ment, and it 'us now his desire to explain ‘hqw he had fulfilled his trust. He. (the ‘ chairman) would call upon Mr. James ‘, Ar_mslr0ng to address the assemblage. ABLE SPEECH FROM THE MEMBER FOR WEST YORK. On Wednesday night, l4tl1inst,,1\lr.N. C. Wallace, member for West York, had the pleasure of meeting a large number of hIS constituents in Seaton village. A platform had been erected within an enclosure at- tached to a hotel at the corner ofBloor and Bethurst streets, and from this the assem- blage was addressed. Over one hundred persons were present, and great enthu- smsm was manifested. The speakers, of whom there were several. were frequently interrupted by cheers and by expressions 0f the fullest, approbation. Mr. Vaughan occupied the chair, and shortly before eight In’fleckithe meeting was opened. LARGE GATHERING OF ELECTORS l Mr. H. M. East, upon being called upon, ’ascended the platform. [10 said that the course of the present Government was so Axel] known to all that anyone could dilate and grow eloquent upon the National Pol- ‘icy. and the benefits which the country had ‘derived from it. When, in l878, the National Policy banner had first been raised he had looked upon it dubiouslv, but was 1inclined to give it a trial. In fact there l was only one man in the country who had ‘the com-ave to go to the poll with such a .cry, which advocated such a change, and that man was Sir John Macdonald. (Enl ‘thusiastic cheering.) The Grit cry then was that the country would go to ruin, but the proof ofthe pudding: was in the eating, and they all knew that this prediction was far from being verified. lf in the last three years such benefits as were apparent had been derived from the National PoliCy, what a degree of prosperity the country might expect in ten years. Capital was now being.r put into Canadian manufactures. and that would not have been dared five years ago. (Cheers) COUNTRY HAD PROSPERED EXCEEDINGLY during the last, two or three years. (Uheers. A proof of this statement was found in the fact that (luringr Augttst,,1881. there had been $7,000,000 more money in circulation around the Dominion than in the corres- pending,r period of 1880. Another proof lay in the fact that money could now be borrowed on more advantageous terms, and with less interest to pay than in former years. Work was plenty. and no one need be unemployed. The difficulty now was to get men enough to do the work. Labor also was of munh higher value. It had been urged by the friends ofthe Opposition that. admitting labor commanded a higher price than in former years, the cost of liv- ing had also increased. This argument he had heard answered by 9. laborer. Said the man : “I pay $5 75 per ton for coal now, whereas some time'ago I paid only $4 per ton. I am quite satisfied, however, beenusa--uhen coal was cheap I had no money at all to pay for it, and now I can afford the increased price.” It was the intention of Mr. Wallace this evening to give some information about Mr. Arinstrong. who was received with cheers, said that in l878 Mr. Walllce was elected to Parliament to carry out certain pledges whith he had made. At that time the country was in the slough of despond. 'lhe people of Canada had!) then weighed caIetully the measures proposed by the Conservative party, and had evidently conâ€" sidered that they would be beneficial to the country, for they decided to give the Nation- al Policy a chance. S1r. John Macdonald was returned to pdwer, and with him Mr. N. C. Wallace had been returned to Parlia- ment for West YOIh. About half the te1m for which he had been elected had expired, and Mr. Wallace came back to his con slitucuts to give an account, of that; part of hls stewardship, and he.(the speaker)was sure he could do so satisfactorily. He had car1ied out his promise. lhe talifi' had been changed, and it was for the people to say whether 01 not the change had bene- fitted the count1y.No one could go out irom his home without finding evidence thatthe THE WORK OF THE GOVERNMENT and the position it then occupied, and con- sequently he (Mr. Armstrong) would not detain his hearers with a long address- He would add, however, that the Grits were going to make a desperate effort at the next election to pull down the flag of Conservaâ€" tism and progress, but he did not think they would succeed. (Loud cheers and cries of “No.") The people of Senton, he knows were nearly all Conservatives. and he was certain they would all be under the one banner in 1883. A man could not long: remain blind or deaf to his own in- terests. (Cheers) Mr. Atkinson. of Parkdale, was the next speaker to ascend the platform. He poinl~ out the benefits to be derived from {he meet- ing of members with their constiiuents. and referred to the privileges and responsibilities which attended the exercises of the fran- Mr. A. M. McDonald was then called upon. He spoke strongly in eulogy of Mr. N. C. Wallace, and referred in stirring terms to the fidelity to trust and the ability displayed by that gentleman during his brief parliamentary career. He believed that previous tothe advent of Sir John Macdonald to power in 1878 there was a gooddeal of money in the country, but those who owned it kept it locked up, be- cause they were then afraid to invest it under the then existing circumstances. Would the Opposition be surprised to learn that the Canadian banks, which had been investing largely in American securities, had, within the last two years, brought hack to the country $12.000.000? (En- thusiastic cheering.) In 1878 Conservatism in Canada had gone to the polls on the cry Ufa National Policy, and now France and other European countries were GOING 1N For. A PROTECTIVE TARIFF. The Umted States, which had a protective tariff since before the civil war, had de- veloped \I'ondertully, as all the world knew. Since 186i the defects in the original tax‘iflC were discovered and remedied, and new the American people were well satisfied with there position in this respect. Just, before the lust Presidentnl election General Han» cock had been asked for his views upon a trade policy, but as he had answered in very uncertain terms he was sent to the right about, and his opponent elected by a large majority as the advocate of a tariff‘ which had henctilttd the country to so great an extent. In 1883 the policy of the Domin- ion would be settled for many years to come and he felt assured that no change would then take place. (Loud and continued Cheering.) Clarke Wallace at Seaton. chise. By attending such meetings as the present, electors could receive the fullest information in regard to political stfairs, and thus qualify themselves to vote. and her considered it was the duty of every voter thus to qualify himself. [Applause] In response to loud calls for t MR. N. o. WALLACE, that gentleman took his place on the speak- ers’ platform, His appearance was the signal for enthusiastic cheering, which did not cease for some moments. Mr. Wallace expressed the pleasure which it afl‘orded hini to mee this constituents that evening. It was the first. opportunity he had had to thank them for the support they had given him at the last general election. He had entered parliament as an advocate of the trade policy of the Conservative party, and he was now even more than ever convinced that it. was the best for the country. It had been asked by their friends of the opposite party how it was possible, if they httd a protective tariff, to have a revenue in the country; and it, was so often explained, and the examples of other countries exâ€" plained. [Applause] During:r the last five l years of h‘tackcnzte’s Government there had l been a deficit of two and a half millions. l'i‘axation last year had been 10 cents per t head less than in the previous regime. But supposingr the taxation was higher titan during the five years referred to, the people had the ability to pay it. This year there was A sunriitt's 0F $4,000,000 to help to build the Canadian Pacific rail way, an enterprise that would have (‘llEd a- way had Mr. Mackenzie remained in power. He charged the late Premier with having run the country heedlessly and needlessly into debt during his term of oflice, by en» tering into wild enterprises and creating unnecessary offices at a time when the Do- minion was in stiartened circumstances. The late Government had expended $208,- 000 per year on an average more than had been spent during the years 1879 and 1880, notwithstanding the fact that the present Government had given $100,000 to Ireland, and $200,000 to save the Indians in the North-West from starving. The average taxation under Mackenzie had been 4.97, while last year the figure reached only 4‘87. There were figures to show that the present Government was the wisest and most eco- nomical they had had Since Confederation. [Loud cheers] He believed the- National Policy would give work to the Canadian people in their own country, for it had put on a tariff which was protective without be- ing prohibitory. lt would keep the people at borne. They had a railway building at the rate of two miles per day, and a coun- try large enough for the most restless to wander through. The North-West, he claimed, had been opened by the present Government, while the late Government had seemed nu'rrznmxrn TO OPEN I'P THE UXITED STATES at the expense of Canada. The Grits, how- ever, claimed that the exodus had commenc- ed since Sir John. Macdonald came into power, and stated that in' the sixteen months to November Ist, 1880, 155,000 people left country. The figures obtained from the Grand Trunk company went to show that the number was only 30,000. The Grits had also made a great noise about the prices of provisions being,r higher than {or- merly. Would it surprise those gentlemen to know that the duty on tea and sugar was lower, and the same might be said about ironware and other articles. They were ‘told that the Liverpool market ruled the world, and now a barrel of flour cost as much in Montreal as in Liverpool, and it, took 50 or 600. to carry it across.

This will end his rowing career. he says, as he intends devoting; his whole attention to his hotel business. Mr. Wallace then entered into a lengthy and lucid explanation of the germs which the Government had made with the Can- ada Pacific R. R. syndicate, and contrasted them with the course the Mackenzie Gov- ernment; had intended to pursue. 'l‘li‘ei~ Pacific railway question had upset; more than one Government, and would have up- set the Blake-Mackenzie Government, only that it (lied of a more violent disease. Mr. Wallace then reviewed the whole question in a very elaborate manner, and his stateâ€" ments in reference to the ooncvssion made by the Government to the syndicate were particularly plain and readily understood. He was frequently applauded, and at the conclusion of his address was heartily cheer- ed. He was followed by Mr. A. P. McDonald, ex-member for Middlesex, who addressed the assemblage at length in a speech which was remarkable for its clearness and force. upon the sub- jects discussed. Mr. McDonald was also warmly received He was the last speaker. and when his address was closed those pres- ent entered the hotel and sat. down to a. substantial supper.

His salary was paid monthly, and after some eight months' service. on account of his residing out of the village, he received from Reeve Gibson a months7 notice in writing that his sei‘vices would not be required after the 31st May last. Mr. Hammond testified that when Mr Gibson notified him he (Gibsonfiold hitn to put. the notice in his pocket and not talte any notice of itâ€"that. if he got a. place in the villageato board it would be all rightâ€" and therefore he took no notice of the l-tceve’s letter, and did not leave on the 3lst Mny, but continued uerforming his duties up to Monday, 6th June. When the move came to him while on duty in Yorkville court room and asked him if he had moved into Yorhville. to which Hammond replied “he had jot a room'in the village,” adding that he would send in a report to the coun- cil. Mr. Gibson considered this was un- necessary, saying "it was all right.” Ham- mond, however: out of courtesy to the co-unctl, sent in a report that "Constable Hammond respectfully r'enorted to the Reeve and Council that he had obtained a room in the villarze,’7 0n the Following Wednesday Mr. Gibson came to Hammond in the Police Station, paid him seven day’s pay, handed him the pay sheet for that a- mount. which he signed, and then Mix Gibâ€" son informed him he was dismissed. Some months previous JlIr Gibson Informed Mr Hammond that if he desired to leave he would have‘to give the Council a. mouths’ notice, and if the Council wished to dis- miss him thev would have to give him a months’ notice. Previous to his dismissal some month or two, Hammond applied for the position of Chief of Police at: Snrnia, upon which occasioriéga certificate of good characted, embracingsolniety, intelligence, and eliiceucy was given him, under the seal of the corporation, and signed by the Reeve, and Deputy-Reeve Saunders, and by Coun- crllors Vair and Foster, and the Chief Con- stable and Clerk of the Council It. also stated that Hammond had been in the emâ€" ployment of the Council some eight months and was put in filed by the Court.

INTERESTING TO FARMERS AND 0THERS.â€"-A case was tried on \Veduesduv, 14111 inst., in the Division Court before Judge L'oyd, which should be taken note nf by funnels and others residing in the rural districts. Some time ago Henry Binuhmii, of the township of Bentinck, was wnited 011 by an agent for 1111 “Excelsior garden punm.”\vho desired to xipnoint him sub-iigent fur the district. Mr Binghum thought he saw 21. chance to make money, the agents terms being very libol‘tll, and he winingiy signed {L paper which, when'reud to him, purported to be e. simple agreement about the pumps. Vth was his surprise, some time nfterwmds, when he was asked to provide for 1L promissory note for $45. It seems the “agent" 11ml substituted in promiss- ory note for the nforesaid agreement, mm Mr Binghem’s eyesight not being good had not noticed the deception.

SUBSCRIPTIONS.-â€"This is to advise that our terms for subscriptions are, when not paid in advance.$1.50. These terms will be enforced if collections have to be made through outside parties. We are willing, however, to accept pay- ment at the rate of one dollar per year, if remittance is made at once. CHURCH DEDICATIONâ€"On Sabbath, Oct. 2nd, the C. M. Church will be dedicated.

Music by the chalr. ‘ John McFarlane, of Vaughan, went to Toronto to see the Exhibition, and at the Union Station met two strangers, who seemed anxious to “show him around.” While on their mmhles one of the men wanted McFarlane to purchase a watch from him, which, however, the latter would not do. They then started to go to Hunlan’s, but the wharf there was too public n place to suit the confidence men, who landed their intended victim east of the hotel, Here they demanded his money or his life. but Mac utterly refused to surrender either, and drew a pocket knife instead. The men are believed to be running still. Nice Day for the Picâ€"Nic. LOCAL ITEMS. Mr, J. Langstafi“. of Langstaffi sent the following to lhe detor of the News :â€" Smâ€"In the Telegram of Wednesday. Miss Langstaf’f was charged with galloping her horse through the crowd, running: over a child, and heartlessly kept on her course without. even looking back to see the injury done. Now, the above is so utterly false that, in justice to Miss Langstafi“, l deem it my duty to contradict it, if you will kindly allow me space. On our coming from the dressing- room we trotted slowly along. the space in front being clear, when a child ran across the track a. short disrance in front. It was almost immediately called back. this time running almost directly in Miss Lnugstal’f’s Way, whose skirts mearly touched it as it passed. If parents WPI'C severely censured for not having proper control over their children, it would be much more appreci- ated that the scandalous article which ap- peared in the Telegram of Wednesday, which seems to he possessed with an un- controllable desire to print sensational ar- ticles, however regardless of the truth.
