IIII ten .0 `L `nibble ' Caunouu, Aug. 22.-George Lind- ley, a farmer in good circumstances, living a few miles from this village, committed suicide last night by icon- ing himself "with Astrychnine, w ich it "seems he had carried albout with him for a `yeartpast. The unfortunate man had been addicted to drink `for many years, but for several months had been quite temperate. A short time ago whileon avisit to the village with a friend, he, with his companion, got on a heavy spree. He left a written pa r stating that the act was done of his own free WI, and that no'one but him- ;self was to blame. The pa 1' was ' written and signed in quite usiuess ' like manner.

Com i_ng down from this perilous perch he walked over the root, stopping by the way to go through the manual of arms, _ till he reached the eastern parapet, from which he jumped down on to the roof of the low building; Here he in- dulged in a little tight-rope practice, walking along the wire of the fire- alarm telegraph, divesting himself of his shirt while in this queer position, and throwing it do_wn on the roof, the crowd meanwhile being in breathless suspense at the danger in which the poor fellow was. He then jumped ` back on the roof, resumed his shirt, threw a first-rate summersault, and climbediip to the root-ridge of the house. These sort of evolutions were continued without any apparent fatigue or thought of danger for sometime. He then jumped down on the stable roof, some four or ve feet lower, and marched up and down the front wall of the building, some hundred feet in length, going through the manual ex- ercies the whilein a most perfect manner. _H3 returned by the course he had come, climbing the bare wall - at the east end of the middle building without any apparent diiculty, and making a clean leap of several feet through his window into his bed-rooin. A number of the oteers at the car i company went into his room immedi- ately,where they found Leslie lying "on his bed, evidently fast asleep, though with staring, wide-open eyes. , After some difficulty he was awakened from his stupor, but was unable to give any reason.-for his strange antics, ` being evidently unconscious that any- thing unusual had occured. His at. tention was called to his blackened } hands and bleeding feet, but he could not give an idea as to how they came in that condition. Altogether it is one of the most extraordinary cases of soninambulisui on record, and well ~ worthy the attention of the scientific. His fellow employee say that he has on several former occasions been caught : while on similar sleep-walking excur- sions, but never before has he indulged in such a remarkable series of gym- nastic teats. ' A SOMNAMBULIST GYlV_lNAST- The queer freaks of a sleeping man in St. Louas are thus related by the Times:--A conductor of street~cars, named Leslie, boards at a house nearly opposite the oioes of the car oampany.

Adjoining the build- ing is one of 11 lower altitude, the roof ot which is about six feet below Les-4 lie : window. iEs.st of this are the car stables. * Between 11 and 12 o olock one night Leslie was seen, in his night-dress, cutting up all sortsof queer pranks on the roof of 1115 boarding- house. He was here throwing a series of ip-aps, dancing backwards and forwards, and gesticulating in the strangest possible manner.

It appears -that the villanous courses lately: adopted by the Globe and its party are leading"fo their natural re- sults ; amongst our exchanges we nd a number of Grit jo'urnal_s which refuse to follow the lead of the Grand Mogul, who wishes to reign` supreme in _the Do- minion. 7 Amongst them we will note one, the Orillia _Exposzar, and give below its article on the question in full; pre- facing it by a remark or two of our own. One remark of its we special-Iy single out : this- We regard the Pacic investiga- tion as removed entirely above party con- siderations. True reform, ' as we have always held, has not beennor can be dis- associated from the moderate party. De- structionists, as we said last week, may -be found in abundance in the Grit party had they power to operate; but your genuine Reformer here is` only to be found in the Conservative ranks, and we take the record of Canada as our au- thority.` These are the remarks "of the 1:l_..__-.A_.. . . u_o5n_:unu:!v menus yum nave Just returned . from E1igland,Irelxu`1d and Scotland.

When The Expositor was revived in Orill1a,we promised that .in politics it would be moderate Reform, outspoken in the defence of right and denuncia tion of wrong 'l`his course we have endeavoured to pursue faithfully, ruled by no man, set of men, or clique, doing best for the interest of our own district in particular, and our country as a whole. In doing this, we naturally caused dissatisfaction to some, though the great majority of the readers of the paper commend our honest of purpose, even when not co-incliding with our views. We have been led to make these remarks by the Globe having on two occasions recently dubbed The Expositor a Conservative journal. If to refuse to pin our faith to the skirts of the managers of the Canadian Thund- erer, or to follow the heck and nod ol daring to have an opinion of our own upon any of the political questions, "is to be Conservative, then we are such. But if, aswe suppose, true Reform prinoiplesadmit of individual judgment. then are we of that party. The Globe has been acquainted with us and our principles long enough to know this. but to ignore it suits its present pur- poses, does not harm` us, and aords a little amusement to some in this local ity. In having an opinion of our own, and expressing it" regardless of the streets or taunts of the Globe, we are but doing the same as thousands of genuine Relormere throughout the` country, who disapprove of the extreme, ill-jadgedutteranccs of their hot-head- ed political rriends only less than the _ policy of their/opponents. They, like us, refusetor mere party aggraudize- ment, to submit to the dictates of the Globe, the Hon. George Brown, or any other, but support measures for the good and morality of the people. When we do otter" an opinion upon general political questions, it is `what we rmly believe. . In regard to Judge Gowan, although His Honor holds majority of the electors in this Riding, the greater-' number of the Reformers will endorse our remark last week, tially. We_ regard theraeitic investiga tiun as ' removed entirely above party coneiderations-a question of national . morality; and we -think that by vil- lifying all concerned in it, who `do not ` happen to agree with them in every the -estimation of moderate men of both in the country. 5 iWe have no deire to right we Lelairn. for every rnamtothilk, act and: vote" as `being personally rer v spoaeible, for; .thej.=e'xoroise rot those L `.!`! #9`? ._l!i`.1._`-`f'tYP- Pi mo-w-'? and advocating what we considered . the leader of the Reform party, without i pohticalviews opposed to those of the ` that he will perform his'dutyimpar- . particular, the Globeand papers of than T stripe have weakened their-cause in _ parties, who form the `controlling power` ` "sail-under talse colors, but shallc6n- Q vtinhe to u-sintain_ for ourselves the ` privt_legss, an`diebtin` accordance min VR[x'wnnn.-We were pleased to see a few'f1-iendsxfrlio have j ugt returned .K1cK'IN GovER THE TRACES.
