No. 31: Whole No. 1279; Volume 25. THURSDAY JANUARY 4, 1883. The year just closed has been a busy one throughout the World. Allhoug‘n no powerful dynasties have fallen, or mighty empires been overthrown, there have been many important events, some of which promise to greatly would the history of the preseetyear. In Canada we had the Dominion Elections, which resulted in the Conserâ€" vatiVe Government being sustained, and the trade policy of' Canada being firmly established on a protective basis. The remarkable boom in the settlement of the North-west, and the marvellous pro- gress made in building the Pacific Rail- way have sent. the country ahead with rapid strides, and made us figure prominently before the whole world. The death roll of eminent men is not very large in Canada this year, but in- cludes several of our most distinguished citizens zâ€"Sir Hugh Allan, H A Nelâ€" son, Montreal ; Dr O'iver, McKay Wright, Quebec ; Senator Hope, Hamil- ton; E R Wood, Winnipeg ; Archbishop Haunan, Halifax; Dr liyerson, Dean Grasset. ex-Provost “7hittakcr, and Father Stafiord. .nnuul flouting Ag. Socie‘tgâ€" Thus. I“. Wallace lot‘iur Robert fluvp’cr, There has been exciting times in the United States. The murder of Presiâ€" dent Garfield and the trial and execuâ€" tion of b‘ritteau ; the Star route frauds; and democratic victory in the fall Conâ€" gressional elections, are the chief events which engrossed public attention. The death-roll includes, besides the murder- ed President; the poet Longfellow. whose beautiful poems will ever keep his name fresh in the memory of his fellow-countrymen ; the philosopher, Ralph Waldo Emerson; and the proâ€" miucnt journalists and politicians, Thurâ€" low Weed and Richard H Dana. In Europe we have had the Itish Question, characterized by the assassinâ€" ation of Lord Cavendish, Secteturv for Ireland, and Mr Burke, under Secretary, besides made other murders and deeds of violence. The establishment; of the Land Courts, and other legislation by the Gladstone Government seema to be putting things in better shape in Ireland. The Egyptian war created a good deal ofinterest throughout. the world, at one time it was feared would lead to a general war ; but the conflict is over, and England remains virtuallv master of' the country, and the whole situation. The attempted assassination of' the Queen, by a lunatic named McLean, last March, is about the only “startling” event in England. The death list inâ€" cludes Archbishop Tait, of Canterbury; Dr Pusey. Anthony Trollope, and Chas. Darwin. Throughout. the continent there has not been anything of great and general importance It! chronicle, ex- cept the annexation of Tunis by France; the death of' Gambetta, Garibaldi, Gen Kautflnan and Gen Skobeletfu But what will the ensuing yeahâ€"~50 quietly ushered in,â€"â€"bring forth? Those of us who live to see its close, will have heard of many startling events, before we again wish each other “A Happy New Year.” The “Bystander’s” Opinion. Goldwin Smith, in the Bystander, points out with considerable force, some of the objections to allowing the Mowat Government to control the Licensed Victuallers. He claims that instead of working in the interests of temperance, it is directly opposed to it, as the power and patronage becomes too serviceable to the party to be easily relinquished. Even if it is true that more Conscrâ€" vatives than Reformers have been grant- ed licenses, it has also been shown that mnnv of these Conservatives have been compelled to do pretty much as their politicalopponents desired, and in numer- ous cases, they were forced to remain quiet during a political contest, through tear of being deprived of their living. But even outside of such instances, the principle of increasing patronage and personal power in every manner possible, which the Mowat Government has so persistently practised, is decidedâ€" ly wrong, and must. result injuriously to the whole country. When such shrewd and cautious observers as Goldwin Smith see danger ahead, it is time that the electors gave serious attention to the matter, and refused to eentinhe in power, men who seem to hesitate at hardly anything that they believe will contmue their existence in ofiiee. The nomination of Mr John Bain as a member of the Ontario Legislature for East York is popularly regarded as a most judic- ious one. A gentleman of education and ability possessing all those solid qualities of character which are more desirable in a representative than mer’e glitter Mr Baiu is fitted to make a representative of whom any constituency might be proud. There will probably be many changes for the better in the next legislature and we hope that East York will be among the i\mroved constit-- uencies. To achieve this desirable end or- gnnization and work will be necessary. Not very many weeks \Vill elapse befOre the elections will be upon us, and we counsel our friends in East York to not be caught napping iu the hour of trialw Yor.’cvté£c.-Vcw3 The Events of the Year.

The Economist of last week, bold- ly acknowledged that the Grits were de- termined to run it that way. and called on all its friends to vote the straight party ticket. r The Sun did not adopt a similar course. but spoke in favor of Eakin, Williamson. Millikeu and Duncan, and requested its readers to vote for good men. Notwithstanding the strong efl'orts made to run the election on strictly po- litical lines, we are informed that, some of the most intelligent and reasonable Reformers voted for Duncan and Wilâ€" liamson,â€"two of the best, men who have ever been in the Council. But when politics runs the election, a Conservaâ€" tive, no matter how far superior to his opponent in ability and character. has but a small chance of' success in Mark- ham Township, and Duncan. we under-- stand, was left by 93, and Williamson by 64,â€"a very good run, when the elec- tion is run politically.

Church here. on Thursday. 21st ultt., under the auspices of the Sabbath School. Mr Wm Kirby, was elected to the chair. and kept good order. The sing- ing and recitalions bv the children, were excellent. Readings. by several well-knotvn amateurs. gave variety to the programme. The Band nlso gave a few choice selections during the evening. After the Concert, Santa Clause mnde his appearance, and dis- tributed the beautiful presents that were on the tree. The weather being wet, not anl over-flowing house was present. The pro", ceeds amounted to about $12 00. OYSTER SUPPER AND DANCE. The Band party, which came ofi‘ on Thursday evening, 281h ult., was a grnnd success. This party was long-looked ahead. Not so many rigs, of the discription, were ever seen in such a small 10th as ours, tor munv a day. There is one great draw- back, and thatis, the hall in which the party was held was not large enough. As one party was hea'd to say, a five-acre field would be about smnll enough to nocornnto~ date all comets. Large numbers came from Richmond Hill, Woodbtidge, Klein- burg and King. The proceeds of the even- ing amounted to about $70.00. The gather- ing broke up about. three o’clock in the morning, and the young men, with their sweethearts, ;went home, rejoicing over their evening's entertainment,â€"â€"As the old saying is :â€" “It is all very well to be waltzing, It ta a pleasure that I do recall ; But you know how it is in the morning, Coming home, coming home “(I'll the Ball.

They are then forwarded to the Public;'cliool Inâ€" spector, who eXumines them for the pur- pose of seeing that they have been fairly and properly read and marked. They are then forwarded to the Education Deâ€" partment for revision by the High School inspectors. lt'any of the Candidates believes the papers have not been fairly marked. they have the privilege of upâ€" pealing to the Department. against the decision of the Local Examiners, and have all the papers carefully revised for a third time.

Mr Crane assured the miter thut the pn‘somtel nf the companyis all that could be desired. and that the public may look for even better performances this seas- on than last. Noticing that the manager looked a little pule the writer remurked up» on tht: fact, but received the reply that. he was in good hmtlth 'But,’ continued Mr Crane, ‘I did have 5“ pretty setinus time ol'it last summer in New York.’ ‘ ‘What was the trouble 7’ ‘I had a very shmp attack of rheumatism.
