On'prmcip'le, we are averse to all controversies in which we do nofi feel that we have a foundation of in- disputable facts. A dispute. of ‘which the beginning is words, and the end nothing more, is to mOst people very distasteful, and to all Completely useless In the York IIi'i-ulil, of the 9th inst, however, appeared a letter written by Mr. Brown, Reeve of this Village, which calls for an answer. hiappily, the matter of which it treats can be at once removed from the domain of argument. so plain and notorious are the facts. "The motive assigned for writing this letter is a local par~ .igraph in "11m; Liaising. of thefznd i ist., in which the absurdity of warning, by public notice, persons against playing Lacrosse on our streets only when Lacrosse has prac- tically ceased to be played,_was good naturedly pointed out. But iii the list sentence of Mr. Brown's letter, be inadvertently betrays a conscious- ness of a far different reason for 3,6- plying to ourjocular remarks. lie states, in fact, that “the shoe pinch- ed" us only because the Lacrosse notices were not printed at the LIB- ERAL office, \Ve must tell Mr. Brown that the statement is untrue in fact, coarse in expression, and utteily uncalled for. \\"l:at we said on the matter. was prompted solely by the feelings which animate every live editor who wishes \to keep his ieaders informed, as far ,as possible, of all that takes place. \Ve beg to assure Mr. Brown, that the time has long suice passed (when we would complain of the village Council 101 \mthlioldingirom .us all share in their patronage. U‘here was a day when we naturally 'trusted that a keen interest in the affairs of Richmond Hill,,_and a tree and fearless exposition of that in- terest would be rewarded by some tangible evidence ofappreciation. Nor. so far as our villagers are con- cerned, have we been disappointed, Ilut a month or two in business sut- ticed to show us that 'we had little or nothing to expect :"cpm the Coun- cil. \\'e have no desire to institute i vvidiwus comparisons between Tau: lslBlikAL and our contemporary across the way, but Mr. lhowu‘s gratuitous insult compels us to speak. \\’e ask, what object, conducive to the welfare 'of our village, has not received our steady, and permit us to say, intelligent support? \\'as a park required? \Vepadvocatcd it in our columns, drew up a petitisn, carried it from house to house for signatures, and then had the, ques- tionable satisfaction of learning how our efforts were appreciated by sce- ing the necessary printing dong; in the office of the Iiaralil. ‘Our Schools, our favorite game“ our Fire Brigade, the Mcchanlcs' Institute, all have received fromus, ’be great- est and best help we conld give._ N ay,when we deeitiied that the cause oflaw, order, and temperance was trampled on, v.'e,did not hesitate to boldly denounce the violation, al- though we knew, and have already had experience, that, our action would be followed by pecuniary loss. And now we ,ask, what has our contemporary done, to deserve the almost entire patronage of the vill- age Council? \Vhat article has it given, what endeavors has it made, what has it advocatcd, which should entitle it not merely to the lion's share, but we might almost say to the whole of the, village printing? Nothing, absolutely nothing. \Vith the excoption ofone job for which our tender was. the lower, and one ether small one given us the other day, \.'C have not received one line from the; Council of which l\‘Ir.I$rown is the head.

His thrust at us is quite on a par with his thrust at our merchants. He blames them for his remissness in what was, ac- cording to himself, a plain and cry- ingduty. How, he asks, could he censure boys foridoing what the very merchants were doing? Assuming that merchants did play lacrosse on the street, though we confess that this is the first intimation we have received ofit, did it never occur to Mr. Brown that his true course was to censure all alike? In conclusion, we have totell Mr. Brown that, while we have receiv~ ed, from men of all creeds, and of all politics, a most generous sup- port, for which we here beg to ten- der them our heartiest thanks, we are under no obligation to the vill- age Council. That body has given us little, and we have asked it for less, firmly convinced that the time will come when we shall have as our overseei's, a class of men who will not make it a point to studious ly ignore honest endeavors for the good and prosperity of our Village. .â€"_ QUECEU LIBERA LISII. \Ve translate from, La Patric, of Montreal, the following article, in order to give our readers an idea of how intensely the Liberals of Que- pec sympathize with the Ileforiiiers of Ontario. La l‘ntrii is one of the ablest of the French Canadian pa- pershand is a very strong and very popular supporter of I’roiinCial rights. Speaking of the demonstra- tion at Chateauguay, on the 41th iiist.. it says :â€" “ In spite of the very unfavorable weather, the Liberal demonstration of the County of Chateauguay was crowned With brilliant success. The day does the greatest honor to the County in general, and especially to M. JuJien Hebert, who was, so to speak, its soul. It seldom happens that the peo- ple show themselves so thankful to their public men, and defend so en- thusiastically and so splendidly, the honor of their insulted defenders. It is a touching example of patriot- ism which gives aii idea of the in- telligence of this sturdv population, and loudly testifies to the noble tfeel- iiig3._whicli animate it. This proceeding, so generous and so spontaneous on {Lil-1e part of such an important electm'al CllVlSlOfl, is a sign of the times ; it announces, and opens the way to, a solemn awaken- ing of public opinion. Another sign of the times was the presence on our hustings, in one of our rural tidings, of the two princi- pal Liberal Jeaders of the neighbor- ing Pipviiioe. This indicatesa desire of closer relations, and of a more cordial un- derstanding. it is a proof that the public men ofthe two gieat Provin- ces ofthe'Contederation feel the need ofknowiitg each other better, that they are beginning to esteem each other more than formerly, that they wash to unite more closely in order to work, with greater harmony, for the general prospeiity and for the safety of common rights. But above all it demonstrates that the Liberal party of Ontario enter- tains the most fraternal sentiments towards the inhabitants of the I’rov- ince of Quebec. and that it is in its (Ontario's) ranks and among its chiets that we may hope to find sympathy in the time of our necessi- ty. In the name of the Liberal party of our l’rovince.weteuder our warm- est thanks to the generous citizens of Chateauguay for their devotion to the public cause, and also to the Hon. Messrs. Blake and Mowat for the cheerful alacrity with which they were pleased to respond to their in- Vitations. The mtmory of the visit of these eminent gentlemen, will form an en- och which will not soon pass from our hearts and minds." "eonou [steeds JO quaom ‘setquem ,setperl JO 310018 any NORTH ETOBICOKE.
