There is no separate school in Napanee, and Bishop Cleary will have semc difficulty in getting the Catholics of that. town to incur the heavy burden of maintaining One._ There are many places where the Catholics could have separate schools if they deâ€" sired them, but where they will not have them unless they are compelled to have. That is a. matter between themselves and their clergy however. Not so Bishop Cleary’s insulting remarks about Canaâ€" dian 'girls. Such coarse criticisms as he directed against them at Napanee will long raukle in the minds of Protesâ€" tants, and lead , to a still wider breach betWeen the denominations. T he'only1 way to prevent mischief from follOwing ‘ the utterances is for the other Bishops to show that they have no sympathy with them.

So completely does the - League hold the field that he doubts if there is now any alternative between suppressing it root and branch, meetings, , journals, and all, granting an entirely independent Irish Parliament.

The decision of the Chancellor in. the case of the License Commissioners v. Fron- ‘ tenac settles some important questions af- fecting the enforcement of the Scott Acts The county municipality refusmg to pay the am‘ount expended by the Commissioners in enforcing the Act contended that. they were not. liable because the Act consolidat-- ing the Dominion Acts repealed and re- enacted the Scott Act, and all the proceed - ings to put the Act in‘operation in Fronteng ac should have been taken de novo. The Chancellor decided that the effect of the revision, although in form repealing the Acts consolidated, is really to preserve them in unbroken continuity. The changes mnde in the phraseology of the Act. he says, are not vital, do not materially change its character or effect; the scope and efi'ect of the statute remains substantially the ‘same, and he could find no reason for say-- ‘ith that the county was exempt from its operation. -.

The following is the uccnunt oi' the dastardly deed, as telegraphed from Norwich :â€"â€"" The sub- ject of the attack was Miss McMurcltie, who is one of the lady teachers in the public school, a pesition which she has filled to the great satis- faction of the ratepayers of this town for the past four years. The young lady went down to the post office for her mail and was returning along S'tover istreet when a man faced her and threw directly at her head a quantity of vitriol. Fortunately for the young yady, she was wearing for the first. time this season a tur coat and cap to match. As the seoundrel threw the vitriol, sbc dodged her head, thus escaping the full effect of the attack in the face, the contents largely passing over ' the right SliOllldeI‘,‘ the balance falling upon the shouldcrl and collar of her coat and slighth upon 1 her right cheek and car. For the moment. she thought that: it was a. mere joke of some friend throwing water upon her. A moment later sh! experienced a burning sensation. and hurrying intoa house had the acid washed from her f'aee. Thus far no arrest has been made, though suspicion points very strongly in certain directions.

The scheme proposed by the Special committee provides that the toll gates be abolished on condition that the icity shall abolish the collection of market Ifees: and agree to maintain the lake shore lroad from the west limit of Parkdnle to the Humber bridge, half the cost of maintain- ing the York roads to he met by a general tax in the county and the other half to be assessed in the townships through and along; side which the several roads run. The re- port was debated in Committee of the Whole. ‘ It was apparent-from the discussâ€" ion that a majority of the members are! in favor of the abolition of the toll gates, but some objected to the plan proposed for maintaining the roads. The abolition of the collection of market. fees by Toronto. it ’ was pointed out, would benefit only the five townships adjoining the city, and that those townships which are benefitted by the uboâ€"‘ lition of the market fees should contribute more towards maintaining the roads than the townships that did not use the city markets. Mr. Anderson moved an amend ment to the report providing that the tolls be abolished, that the roads be maintained by a general tax and that a rebate be given to the outlying townships. u luc Uu\lv|||E lvwlluun u Mr. Clendenan moved the following amendment to the amendment :-â€"-That the county cease to collect tolls at the expira- liou ofthe present lenses and maintain the York roads by a tax. which shall be raised by the county on the equalized‘assessment, except as hereinafter stated :â€"The municiâ€" pnlities of Georgina, North Gwillimbuiy, Parkda‘le. Markham and Stonfi'ville to be exempted from all taXes for the mainten-i ance ofsniul roads, the town of Parkdnle to become liable for such taxes at the end of the present lease of the York roads in that municipality ; that the necessary legislation be secured for providing that this county shall receive from the adjoining munci- palities a reasonable, compensation -for the large amount of money expended on the roads and bridges amending outside the limits of this county» and for the carrying out the above. arrangement in full; also that efforts be made to“ organize as county |r0ads all private roads within the county and that thereafter they be maintained as county roads as above. . Dr. Richardson, the chairman of the com- mittee, held that the northern townships would benefit to some extent. from the' York roads near the city, and said he thought the scheme of the committee dealt fairly with all the munioipalities. There might be some improvements made to the scheme. however, and he was willing that they should obtain an opinion from the electorâ€" ate on the matter next January. The anti-tailgate men won their first munitm 5.0111113. Emit mFridaJ last, but it was not a very significant con- quest. Mr. [tiehnrdsoxnfleeve of Scarboro’, moved “ That. the county commissioners be and are hereby instructed to see that. notice be given that this county will apply to the Legislature for a private bill dealing with the York roads. and providing for the ad»- juining municipalities nasuming those por- t tions of the roads within their respective‘ hunuicipaiities.” In support of his motion ; Mr. Richardson pointed out that it did not bind the county in any way. but simply made it. possible, ifs decision were arrived at during the January session, to obtain the necessary legislation at the forthcoming meeting of the Ontario Legislature. Mr. Anderson. reeve of Georgina, thought this was a subtle move on the part of the anti - tollgate party to get an advantage. After some further discussion the motion was carried and the yeas and nays recorded as follows:â€" Yeasâ€"Messrs. Cherry, Evans: Foster, Frank- lsmd, Humberstone, . uckson, Lundy. Pugsley.

This ended discussion on‘ the toll gate question {or the preaentseasion of the council. ' On motion of Mr. Bruce it was decided to have 2,000 copies printed, for dislribuiion, of the various schemesfor the abolition of the toll gates brought before the‘ council. No doubt, during the approaching muni- cipal elections. the matter will be fully dis- cussed, and being made an issue in the elections. representativas in the next county council will be prepared to voice the sen- timeuts of their constituents and finally dis- pose ot'the question. .A. , n,,,,A, York County Cqungil. r-“ , ,, V On Friday1 the Committee on County Property recommended the partial granting, of petitions for reduction of rentof toll gates received from Mr. Richard, Alex.
