The 'petition against Mr Muiock’s reâ€" turn for North York has been ruled out of court. This does not say that the charges in the petition are not we†found- ed, but that the case was entered in _, the. wrong Court. Mr Mulock now holds the seat for the term. Every printer knows that it is the regular rule to charge double rates for rule and ï¬gure work, and Mr Somerville must have known this. He either for- got it in his excitement, or thought. to mislead the public. But Mr Mackenzie clearly explained the matter, and severe~ 1y rebuked Mr ‘ Somerville. requesting the House to excuse that gentleman, as he was a new member. Mr Sumerville is a trifle fresh. Mr Mackenzie gnve Mr Somerville, of Brant, one of his friends, a severe reâ€" buke in the House, on Monday lust. Mr Somerviz-lle, who is a newspaper man, found some printing charged at double rates, and immediately came to the couâ€" elusion that some jobbery had taken place. He accused the contractor of being dishonest, and the Queen’s Printâ€" er of conniving at the fraud. Sit! Chérles has been an able and use- ful servant of the country for his whole lifetime, but his principal work, and one that will always be associated creditably with his name, is the Paciï¬c Railway. He leaves for England shortly to ï¬ll the position of Canadian Commissioner in the place of Sir A: T. Gait, realgned. The chance of work and less onerous duties will be beneï¬cial to Sir Charles. He has fairly earned the position. The retirement of Sir Charles Tup- per is a pleasing piece of news for the Opposition. There is no one in the House or country they are so much afraid of as that gentleman. He is, beâ€" yond doubt, without an equal in his capacity for hard work, for general know- ledge of the Departments, and readiness to impart information on all. matters. His style of dealing with his opponents, hitting them straight from the shoulder, makes him feared, not without cause. 0? course, betWeen the two ï¬nanciers, the people of this country should at once prefer the “no surplus†man. who could not make both ends meet ; who was con- tinually getting deeper and deeper into debt, until the elections left his position vacant. It is not to he expected that the Globe would express much pleasure over the way Sir Leonard Tilley has managed the ï¬nances of the Dominion. Whether there was a surplus or a deï¬cit the 0pâ€" position organs would ï¬nd fault and say the country was being wronged. Fortuo nuter Sir Leonard is not much troubled by all the faultï¬nding. Instead of run- ning the country into debt every year, he is wiping of? the immense debt left by his predecessor,â€"that ï¬nancial genius,-â€"Sir Richard Cartwright, who never thought it diflicult to raise a sur- plus, but who continually announced de- ï¬cits instead. . The Globe says Sir Leonard deserves no credit for keeping the country out of debt, for having a surplus, or raismg the revenue in such a manner that the peo- ple do not feel it. Probably Sir Richard deserVes credit for heaping up deï¬cit after deï¬clt, and that, too, in a way that the people felt the burden of taxation. This seems to be far preferable to diâ€" viding the County in order togratify the wishes of ambitions Newmarketers, at the expense of the southern portion. A separatlon of the whole County from the City, with our buildings located in York, would be much better,â€"more just and reasonable than to split the metropolitan County into two unimportant and rather insigniï¬cant Counties. The Em refers t3 one matter where unnecessary expense is placed on the County of York, which could be saved. There are always a large number of actions tried at. the York Asstzes from other Counties throughout the Proâ€" vince. The costs of these trials is borne by York‘ instead of by the Counties where the litigants resrde. If an agitaâ€" tion was raised and proper eï¬'orts made, the law might be changed so that the cost incurred by these changes of venue would be borne by the Counties where the cases belong. . The Newmarket Era is a strong and persistent advocate of the divrsion of the County. The reason given is that the northern part of York could save conâ€" siderable money if the division was eï¬ec- ted, and a new County formed of that section. The real object to be secured is to make Newmarket the County town, and in order to do this the Era would be willing to increase the taxes of the people in the southern portion of the County, and take the chances of a slight reduc-- tion of taxation for the north. How the new County could erect buildings, pay oï¬ieials and provide for other necessary expentes at less ccst than their share to this county, does not seem quite clear.

NORWAY, Mich, April ll.--At Keele- ridge Mine, Menomenee Range, Michigan iron district, yesterday, 90 feet of ground between the main engine house and No 1 shaft caved in. The engine house in. which there were nine men and all the mine ma- chinery and four large boilers, went down one to two thousand feet. All the men were killed outright or buried alive, except Ed Wicks, who went down a hundred feet and then remained on the top of the debris with a leg broken at the thigh and one of his ribs fractured. r Bis rec0very is doubtful The pump and boiler must be put in before other bodies can be recovered. It will take a week or more. The mine was about . to be abandoned as the ore body was exhausted. All the men were on the surface hoisting the steam pipes out of the shafts.~ The acci- dent is the most disastrous that ever occur- red in the Lake Superior mines. Crowds are gathering in the neighborhood. Every effort will be made to get the bodies out. The names of the killed are Patrick Egan, William Morse. Richard Williams, Wm. Pollard, Wm. Jefl'rey, ’lhomas James and W Henderson. H. M. steamship Tenedos, with 1he Prim-- cess Louise on Board, arrived at. Newport, R. l.. on Saturday mowing.
