Loftus, Reeve of Flos, 1 and seconded by James Lindsay, Col g lll]gW0()(l, that the Liberal-Conserva- ~ tives of the North ' Riding is recall ` with j satisfaction that. owing to the wise and ` statesmanlike policy. of their leaders it has been found possible eschewing sectional issues which have been at all times and under I all circumstances the principal stock-in trade of the so-called Liberal party of. Ontario for upwards of thirty years to work `harmonious- ly with the Conservatives of the Province of Quebec ; they recognize that the successful carrying out of the scheme of Confederation composed as the Dominion is of Provinces whose peoples differ in race religion, and laws require a policy of mutual forbearance and Iedena and they have in view of thees . difficulties been in times past willing to ac- cept and endure measures which apparently- were more in the interests of the people .of other Provinces than of theirown ; they hope that their French-Canadian brethren realize that there is a reciprocal duty on their part towards this Province and the other portions ot the Dominion, but in common as they be-. lieve with the greater majority of the people of the Dominion, theyinsist on the absolute equality of all men, whether of French or` British descent, before the law,` and they de- nounce as the worst enemies of Canada - traitors to Confederation`itse1f-those politi- cal agitators whether of the Province of Quebec or Ontario who would seek to encom. pass the downfall of the administration be- ` cause of its refusal to `interfere between Louis Riel and the sentence which had been pro- nounced against him.

She wasreiven away by Mr. George Black- more, her brother, and her sister, Miss Annie Blackmore, acted as brides- I maid, who was attired in white, and both bride and bridesmaid carried magnicent bouquets. After the ceremony a most sumntuous breakfast was par-taken of by a large number of friends and invited guests. The presents to the bride were numerous and valuable. consisting largely of silver.

The door of the closet was opened and at short in- tervals the sounds were again and again re- peated.

It will be remembered that some time ago a family, with their dog, were sent to gaol at Barrie from the neighborhood of Cookstown, as vagrants. The house in which they had been living was torn down, and they could not obtain shelter in that community. When they were discharged some kind hearted person took them back and found a house for them, and interested himself so far as to get up a subscription for getting food and "other necessaries for them. Just upon that some of the roughs and rowdies whose names ought to be made public,'went to the house, abused the female part of the family, ate the provisions that had been subscribed for these people. That such villainous dcings should be permitted in the township of In- nisfil is a shame and disgrace is the town- Shlp outside of the law. ' TYYDVIIIIID gave a glowing picture of life in that wild and far o region. He painted the life of the savage with all the disgusting customs and habits of their heathen life. and the wonderful change that has been wrought in their lives bv missionary efforts.

Harry McCuaig, reman of the wild cat, had two legs broken and was otherwise terribly torn and scalded. He will die. Alfred Long, the driver, re- ceived severe injuries, but it is thought he will recover. None of the passengers or other train hands were injured `beyond a severe fright and shaking up. Dr Bentley, " of N ewmarket, and other doctors were soon on the spot. William Mulock, M. P., pressed a conveyance into service, and after procuring some necessary stimulants was early at the scene. Both engines are com- pletely wrecked. A relief train from Allan- dale was on the spot inside of an hour. It appears that the light engine had been to Toronto for repairs, and engineer Long was ordered to run her north, avoiding all regular trains. He took in water at Aurora without reporting at the station and ran through Newmarket Without stopping. Long and i.\lc-Cuaig both live at Allandale. Mr. Samuel Lount, of this town, was on board, who says the train was running on time and was in acuttingwith a sharp turn about half way between Holland Landing and New- i market when the cars cauio to a standstill. | The tender of the train was comp`etclv lost to sight under the baggage train. Little was lying in the Wreck and was quite dead when dug out. Long was the least hurt of the four men. M cCauig was taken to Toron- l5) to the hospital. Little, the dead reman, boarded in Toronto. Dennis Bracken, the driver of the mail train, was only slightly injured. The loss to the North- ern Railway Company will be great. collegiate Institute Entertainment. The pupils of the Collegiate Institute pur- pose holding an entertainment in the Town Hall on the evening of Tuesdav, Feb. 2nd. The proceeds of the entertainment will go to the purchase of physical apparatus. which under the new regulations of the Education Department is a necessary part of the equip- ment of secondary schools. The Glee Club of the Institute, which for some months past has been under the training of Mr. Hender- son, will, assisted by ex-pupils of local repu- tation furnish the programme. The pupils have already by means of these entertain- ments purchased a piano and the nucleus of a library. It is hoped that a large attend ance Tuesday evening will show that the people of the town continue to appreciate these efforts to improve the equipment of the school. ` Barrie Literary Society. ; The Barrie Literary Society met in their rooms, Brown s Block, on Monday evening, the President" in the chair. After routine business, the President announced the sub- ject of debate for the evening, which was. " Resolved that Imperial Federation would be advantageous to Canada Rev. D. D. McLeod was appointed critic and Mr. Hay chairman for the evening. The debate was opened by Mr. McCarthy for the affirmative. He took the ground that there is a natural tendency to federation in English speaking peoples, and that it was in the tness of things. He contended that asa colony it was impossible that there can be that full development of our `intellectual capacities, our political aspirations and our vast re- sources of every sort. But by being joined to the great empire of Britain as a coordinate member we should possess all the advan- tages of her wondrous power in the expansion and strengthening of those_ latent energies which this young Dominion possesses.

His Grace addressed those` present in his usual eloquent and impressive manner, congratu- lating the people of Barrie on having in their midst such an -aid to religion and education, as well- as being an ornament to the town. He praised the generosity of all who contri- bnted towards the building fund and explain- ed how they thus urged on the work of God. He exhorted all to labor faithfully in seeking before all else the Kingdom of Gxl by a. virtuous, honest and sober life and thereby fulfil the end for which they were created. He reminded them that whilst detesting l vice and error they should show the greatest of charity towards the sinner and the erring, and thereby tend to ' reclaim them to truth and piety. At the'c0nclusion he reminded parents of the great necessity of giving their children a religious education so as to make them good citizens and exemplary Christians.
