There was a great meeting at Orange- ville on Monday in honor of Mr. Dalton McCarthy. The town hall was packed to its'utmose capacity and there was much enthusiasm. In the course of his speech Mr. McCarthy referred to the charge made by Mr. Ives at the dinner of the MacDonald Club in Montreartha.t he had received during the last' nine years in law fees either from the Conservatives or Government $61,958. He said so far as he was concerned he had never received from the Government of the country one solitary dollar directly or indirectly. Towards the close of his speech he said, he had been read out of the party and declared an outcast, butrTevhaps Card, well would judge between him and his former associates. It would, he felt sure, if the Government dared to open itand giveMr.\Vl1ite what they had pro- mised him, He dared them to try the issue fairly and openly and called on them riot to skulk. They would find the candidate not far away, glancing over The mammoth Canadian cheese at the World's Fair seems bound to prove itself an automatic advertiser of Can- ada's prominence in cheese-making. It will be remembered that the cheese itself weighs eleven tons, and the steel band which goes round it weighs near- 1y four tons. During the opening ceremonies at Chicago on Monday it fell through the Boot, of the Agricultu- rel building, in gyhich it had been placed, and sank a considerable depth into the ground eleven feet below the floor. Prof. Robertson, Dominion Dairy Commissioner, received a tele- gram in the evening stating that it would be raised by machinery at once and replaced in position sound and whole. A correspondent writing to The Globe explaining the cause of Mr. Erastus Wiman's financial diffieulty says that he had over-invested in real estate in Staten Island, his hopes for the future of which have been disap- pointed, as it seems the value of prop- erty there has rather declined than risen. His severance from the firm of Dan, Wiman & Co. has no doubt greatly reduced his current income, and his money being locked up in real estate he is unable to meet immediate liabilities. This appears to be the real state of the case, as at present disclosed. Mr. Kierood presented a number of petitions signed by 30,000 Patrons of Industry and others throughout the province, asking that mortgages, rail. way, bank and all company stock and debentures be withdrawn from the list of properties exempted from taxation , also superior courts of the province be decentralized, and that the jurisdiction of the division courts be increased. A large number of the residents of Ulster belonging to Presbyterian and Unitarian denominations repudiate the resolution in opposition to Irish Home Rule which was sent to Lord Salisbury in the name of and representing the opinions of the Protestants of Ulster. They have sent Mr. Cxlewlstone, a cum- munieation expressing confidence in him and his policy, In 1870 the real estate in Mo tttsal was assessed at 850,599,000. It is be, lieved now to be worth $136,000,000. The revenue in the former yehu" was $803,656, and in the latrear $13,505,578 There has been a corresponding growth of trade and population The 111etrop- olis monopolizes nearly all of Quehee's prosperity. The New York Times estimates that wealthy American women have spent '$50,000,000 in the last tssreney-tive years in buying titled husband; in Europe. It would have been cheaper had some early McKinley provided for fostering the home manufacture of titles. THURSDAY, MAY 4rh, 1803 The National Bank of Australasia has suspended, with liabilities amount- ing to 837,500,000. The cause of the failure was a heavy run on the bank in all its branches. The deposits in the bank amount to nearly 8'45,000,000. tiitatstlmt (0totticlt. EDITORIAL NOTES, -Do you ' t . _ 'lr e You should call and see our stock of New Millinery in all the latest designs.

Upon this was the button the pressure upon which was to start the machinery and make the opening of the Exposi» tiou an accomplished fact. As the last words fell from the President's lips he pressed his finger upon the button. This was the signal for a demonstration in Get difficult of imagination and infi- nitely more so of description. At one and the same instant the audience burst into a thundering shout, the or chestra pealed forth the strains of the “Hallelujah Chorus"; the wheels of the great Allis Engine in Machinery hall commenced to revolve; the elect. tric fountains in the lagoon threw their torrents towards the sky: a flood of water gush forth from the fountain and rolled back again into the basin t PATRIOTIC MUSIC After the distinguished guests had been seated on the platform everything was in readiness for the inauguration of the exercises proper. It had been intended to preface the speeeh-malring with a grand chorus of 1,000 voices, but owing to an oversight in drawing the plans of the platform this feature was eliminated and in its place was rendered a Columbian march composed for the occasion by Prof. John K. Paine. Theodore Thomas wielded the baton and 600 instruments responded to the wand of authority. THE BLIND CHAPLAIN PRAYS As the music died away the blind chaplain of che United Statics Senate, Rev. Dr. W. fl, Milburn, was led thr, ward to the front of the plaaiorm and offered prayer. Many of those about him joined in the "Amen" with which the man of God concluded his iuvoea, tion. seat, and as he swept his eyes first over the occupants of the platform and then over one of the greatest, audiences that man had ever faced there went up a. cheer that seened to shake the massive dome of the building behind him and which reverberated through the grounds like the ratt'e of musketry. At last, when throats and arms alike were tired and a semblance of quiet had come over the throng, he commen- ced I is address. When Director-General Davis, con- cluded his address the President of the United States slowly arose from his From the centre of the platform proper than rrsuiated a special stand, and upon this there wvi-e chairs for President, Clewland, Vice-President Stevensnn, the Duke of Venlgua and others of his party, and the highrr nat- ioxml and Iucnl otfieers of the Fair. Immediutvly in the war were the sec- tions assigned to the members of the diplomatic corps, while to their right mid eft the other oific1Uls and guests Wcl‘e rang-d. Behind these were pint-ed the orchestra. In front of all, occupying the two wines on the right and left of the spsalrer's stand, was pro- vision for 300 members of the press, who represented nearly every civil- ized nation on the Gee of the globe. The procession mltprnd the grounds in less than an huur from time of start- ing. The foreign division was inaugurated with the fourteentrh carriage.
