If cheap and good land, and favorable climate is any inducement, - Canada should get its share of' immigrants. The lowast price at which lands are sold by the United States GOVernment is $52.50 per acre without any rebate, and 1he land under the control of railway companies are sold at much hivher prices. One would naturally think that the opposition organs would now apoloâ€" gize. for their statements, so often re- peated, that the P. C. R. Company would d1ive immigrants out of the coun- try by their exo1bitant charges. But the organs will not do any th1n1r of the kind. They are dissati fied still, and always will be until the 1r i1'1ends are in power. The dissatisfaction will become chronic by that time. They now say that the Company are only olfelinq the land at cheap rates until :1 few thousand acres aic sold when up W1 ll rise the price to an enormous figure The1es no satisfy/intr such people Knock one argument into a cooked hat and they ‘ immediately produce another creation of their imagination. Seeding has commenced In some parts of the county. Mr. Langsmfl”. a farmer near Richmond H111, sowed twelve acres of bar- 19; rnHIm 25th inst. The Company are now actively enâ€" gaged in building the road, and are making strenuous exertions to induce emigration from Europe. They offer great advantages to immigrants to settle in the North- West. They offer the land for $2.50 per acre, payable in instal- ments, and will make a rebate of $1.25 per acre lor every acre brought under cultivation Within three or five years after purchase, according to the improve- ments maie thereon. We remember how the opposition organs almost choked in their hysterical outcries over the immigrants flocking to the States in pre- ference to Canada. Although the Act was defeated by a large majority in Hamilton, still the fact of there being so many voters in favor of prohibition is a very significent one, and is nclear and certain indication of the gradual but eversgrowing conviction that the country would be better off if there was no such thing as intoxicat- ing liquors, either made, bought or sold in it. This is an unpleasant thought for those interested in the business, but it is just as well to look unpleasant facts in the face. Any one who takes interest enough in the question to read what is going on around them, cannot but see that the feeling of opposition to the liquor traflio is steadily growing all over the Northern part of the Continent. This opposition is evinced in some loealites by passing prohibitory laws, or stringent license laws. Some persons show their opposition by making strong efforts to have such laws passed, or by leading very abstemious lives. But the vast majority of people are neither proâ€" hibitionists nor men who have any peculiar interest in the traflic. They are temperance people ; people who, it may he, do not touch the flowing bowl. or who if they dortoueh it very temper- ately. They are neither temperance fanatics, nor habitual drinkers. No. as; There are a class of people in this world who are never satisfied. They ‘always have something the matter with them. They fancy that there is nothing in the world that could not be improved by their interference. Some of the Op- position papers appear to be desirous of establishing areputatlon of this kind. They find fault with anything and every- thing connected in the remotest manner with the Liberal Conservatives:’"br the present Administration. They had some three or four thousand different reasons why the Pacific Railway Syndicate should not be allowed to complete the Railway, and when the electors showed that thev were not opposed to the Syn- dicate bargain, the organs continued to harp upon the enormous prices which the Company would ”charge for lands.

Switzer proved a very efficient accompan- ist on the piano. A great sensation happened here, a young couple-got married. A lot of young folks thought they would have a. good time, so they came down on them like sixty, when a certain J. P. a connection of one of the married folks came out: to them with the bottle and glass , and they all had a merry lime. We have a first class workman here in the blacksmith business for any one wanting work in his. line.

Mr Sheppard, of Lansing, read a. selecâ€" tion from Sothern’s Duudreury "Poor Wich- ard’s Proverbs,” and recited the “Maniac’s appeal for Rum.” The reading: was well given. and heartily applauded. The reciâ€" tation was almost as good an effective a temperance lecture as has ever been given in the hall. Mr Sheppard certainly has few equals nmcngst amateurs in his read- ings from Dicken’s works, and his success on Fri day night evinces his aptitude for the tragic. as well as the humorous of different, schools. He was warmly applauded. Mr James Reynolds brought down the house With his comic songs, the encore of "Oh. Fred tell them to stop,” being up- roarously greeted" Mr Reynolds is apâ€" parentlv an old favorite with Richmond Hlll audiences, who welcome him back to the stage, after a few years’ absence The Concert was opened at eight o’clock by a selection from the Band, “The Death of Nelson.” in which they showed good organization and careful training. “La Fille D11 Regiment” was also given by the Band in a very creditable manner. The wav these fellows can handle music now is simply astonishing, and aspiring cornets and trombones from other bands would be greatly interested and edified by attend- ing one of the Concerts giVen by our Knights of Harmony. The state of efficiency attained is OWing in a great measure to the paintalx'ingr and thorough teaching of the musical conductor, M r. A. Laird. We do not recollect that our Band ever attained, in every respect as high a standard of excellence as they have achieved at the present time.- Master W Atkinson sang “The Officer’s Funeral,” and “Always up and Doing, b0vs"’ very nicely, considering that it was his first appearance in public. His voice is strong, but somewliatrougli. This and other trifling: defects Will doubtless be removed by time and pracâ€" tice. It is already generally admitted that Eekardt’s monthly sale held in this vil- lage on the first Wednesday of every month, proves very advantageous to par- ties desirous of buying: or selling stock, vehicles. Implements, or any other arti- cles. It has also proven decidedly ad~ vantageous to the business men in this village, of' all classes, and it is therefore to the interest of those benefitted to have the institution kept up. This cannot and will not be done unless every one joins in melting it a success. Mr. Eek- ardt is at. considerable expense and trou~ ble, and naturally and reasonably enough too, desires to be remunerated therefor. We are. informed that some persons take advantage of the advertisement by bring- ing in horses, etc,on the dav of sale. and disposing of them privately. This is not fair and square dealing. Mr Eek- ardt’s advertisements brings the crowd here, brings the buyer as well as the seller and he rhould not be subjected to any loss thereby, llis commission is very small. and we hope every one Wlll be interested in maintain- ing such a desirable institution as the Monthly Sale. .lt is just as well, once 10 a while, to have a change in the style of our enter: taiuments. The Band Concert on the evening of'Goed Friday was a decidedly interesting change from the strictly “sociable” kind of gatherings held in our village for the last- few months. There has been such a continual call for funds from all sources, and for So many differ- ent objects this last winter. that it seem- ed extremely doubtful whether an en- tertainment of any description would draw much of' a crowd. But- the at- tendance on Friday evening was good, the singing excellent, and as we antici- pated the whole programme an unusually attractive one. All the selections, vocal andinstrumental, were taken from the best sources, Braham, Keller, Donizetti= Glover, etc.. Mr Wm Sanderson 3 humorous readings wefe pleasingly given, and well 1ecei1ed. Mr Murphy, of Toronto, amused the audience greatly by hls Irish Comic Songs, and was loudly encored, especial- Iy by the young lads, who shouted with delioht at his xenditlon of “Ale you there, Mor-i-ar-ity.” A Successful Entertainment. BAND CONCERT Our Monthly Sale. Edgeley izvm The sense efregret at the loss by death of the llcv. w. Morley Punshon is marked among,r all denominations. but maxked most of all among the Methodist body. It will be a great loss to them and one not easy to replace. The deceased clergyman was a man of phenomenal talents and stood in the front rank as a preacher and a lecturer.. Few men of the present day. in these re- spects, could at all compare with him. Fifty- seven is not an advanced age. To a man of the ability of Mr. Punshon it was the very youth of old age~the prime oflife- There are probably few places where his removal by the stern hand of the tyrant. has created a deeper sorrow than in Ihc city where he- laboured with so great success. The foundation for the scales is being laid for this place. There is a brisk trade Lin lumber and shingles The correspon- dent from Teston in last weeks Herald gave the Band too much taffy, and the next lime, he had better put it on mildly, especially ofthat chap that handles the brush.

ENGLISH CHURCH â€"â€"The Annual Vestry Meeting of St Mary’s Church was held on Eastei Monday. The at- tendance of both ladies and gentlemen was larger than usual. The Rector in the chair. Mr Kerswell was named as the ministe1’ s Church Warden, and Mr Thos. Palmer as the peoples A vote of thanks was passed to Mr W Powell, the retiring church warden, for his able assistance in helping to clear the church from debt.

FRIENDLY NOTICE.â€"â€"Partics owing subscriptions for two, three and four years, must imagine the-printer requires no pay. We trust it will not be necessâ€" ary to place the amounts in the hands ofa collector for collection. We hope better things of those who subscribe then to have to resort to harsh measures to collect the small amounts due from each person for their indebtedness. At the same time it cannot but be apparent to men of thought, that the smallness of the amounts total up pretty largely when you can count by the hundreds. We look forward to receiving a satis- factory response to our application. BACK STREETSâ€"The other day we took a stroll down some of the back streets of' our classic village, and found portions of the sidewalk on Richmond and Mill Streets in a rather dangerous condition. in certain places the inside end 01 the plank is raised a foot or so higher than the outer end, and the walk sways and shakes in an unpleasant man- ner. There is also a culvert or two that need attention. 11'ar BRIGADE PRA omenâ€"The Fire Brigade turned out, on Good Friday queryoon, and practiced for a.short time on the pumps "I‘h‘ey pumped consider- able water out of Mr. Harrison’s cistern, for which that gentleman kindly conâ€"4 tributed $1 towards the fund of the Brigade. The engine was in good order, and when taken out looked aslelean and neat as a new pin. Caretaker Browniey evidently earns, his money, and knoWs how an engine should be looked after.

Hollowuyls Ointment and Pillsâ€"For bad legs, bad breasts. scorbulic and scrofulous sores this is a genuine specific. The grateful and earnest gratitude of thousands who have experienced its unrivalled poWer over these complaints. and who have been raised from prostrate helplessness and a condition loatlr some to themselves and others, renders it quite unnecessary to enlarge in this place upon its extraordinary virtues. The parts affected should be bathed wrth lukewarm water, and when the pores are thereby open the Ointment, should be well rubbed in, at least twice a day. It: is always advisable to take Hollowny’s Pills in these disorders, as this much assists the Ointment’s action. The Pills check the feaver, purify the blood, and eject all morbid mattef eugenâ€" dered by these diseases.

Some people are also un-v cultuxed enough to leave :1. Concert while the Band IS playintv the National Anthem.

Rev. William Morley Punshon. D.D., LL. D., was born at. Doncaster, Lincolnr shire, England, in 1824. and was educated by his uncle, Sir Isaac Morley. after whom he was named. He entered the church at, an early age, and was stationed in' success-' ion on a number of prnminent circuits. His finished and sparkling style as a pulpit orator earned for him a high reputation in the Wesleyan Methodist church, and enteri- ing the lecture field with the "Prophet of Horeb” for a subject he took rank at once as one of the great orators of the age. His lectures on Macaulay, Daniel in Babylon,- Floreuce and its Memories and other sub- jects are well known to literary men, and many audiences in Englandfianada‘ and the United States has been spell-bound by their charm. In 1868 Dr. ‘Punshon came to Canada. and the same year was elected president of the Methodist conference, a position he held until his return to England in 1873.
