A well-dressed and rather good-looking young man, who gave his name as Thomas Howarth, created a. sensation in the village on Friday evening prevxous to his being taken to Torontoijail by Detective Slemin. A few days preuious he had come hero with a horse and buggyrsaying he was desirous of purchasing it farm. Having been directed to Mr. Ezra Ciubine, he was not long in making a bargain with that gentleman for his 200 fanniacre on the 3rd Con. of Vaughan. Eli; buggy having got accidentally broken be borrowed Mr. W. D.Cluhinc‘s, and on Thurs. day drove to Mr. \V. Struthers, at Pine Orchard, 5th Con. of Whiichnrch. While at that place he also bargained for Mr. Slruther's farm. On Friday Mr. Clubiiie, not feeling satisfied that all was right, drove to Pine Orchard, and brought back to Rich- mond Hill the seemingly anxrous farm buyâ€" v-r. As he appeared to be in eurucst about buying a farm, he and Mr. Clubine went to J. I‘ll. Lawrence, Esq, and had an agreement drawn up, by which the purchaser was to pav n certain amount for the farm, It check for 39500 on the Bank of British North America. to be given the day after the agree- ment. was made.

Later in the evening the detective arrived and took the confessed thief to iail. On Satur. day morning in the Police Court he pleudcd guilty to stealing the $20 and won remandcd fora wccli.

Why the British House of Commons has 670 members, or 45 less than we have in Canada, although our population comes along way short of the population of the city of London alone. If the United States had the same magnificent scale of representation in her Legislatures as we have in Canada, her 62 or 63 millions 5f people would give her about 10,000 of them. The fact of the matter is we look about as absurdly ridiculous as Tom Thum would look dressed up in some big fel- iow’s clothes. Our clothes are far too big for us. The fact is they were cut by those master tailors, “ the Fathers of Confederation ” (you have seen pictures of them no doubt) in 1865, and they were made big enough to fit us in 1891, by which time we were to number about 15,- 000,000. But the fact is the child born in 1865 had to put on man’s apparel. and as he has not grown much, if any since, his clothes are still two big for liiui. Another thing that impresses me on. favorably is the tendency to import into this country the aristocracy of the Old Country, with all its glitter and tiiisil. It may be all right as for as England is concerned, because it. is backed up by But in this country it is out of place. ‘Kuights are getting plentiful. We have even also a. line Lord, and who knows but what we will get a Duke by and by. The whole busi iiess, as far as this country is concerned, savours very much of the reductio (Ml absurdum. 1 llunni‘ our few public men that have refused such honors. In conclusion permit ore to say that I do not see a very bright prospect. for the future of this country, until unity of ours public men manifest a higher standard of morality than they do at present; until the rank and file of the electors learn to think more of principle than they do of party; until our valley of Aclior is thickly studded with monumental piles, marking the resting plaice of our modern Actions. 4..â€" The third page of tiic Toronto DAILY MAIL is noted for “\Vant” Advertise- ment. 1‘. you want to buy or sell any- thing.
