Professor Goldwin Smuth . :s also written to Mr. McAlister, the chairman of the committee fo:â€"med to p:.=0.e bis election, acknowledging receipt «i ihe official notificsiion of his election.

He states his intentionâ€"and the statement ‘must be gratifying to the people of Canadaâ€" of becoming a perman«â€" ent resident in Toronto, and such being the case it was almost needless for him to say that the business of the Council of Public lnstruction will have his best and constaat attention: _ He thanks those, moreover, who have by their votes placed him in the position to which he has just been elected, and which ho seems to value very highly.

The editor of the Tims saw in the proâ€" prietor‘s course a commendable prescience of the disastrous effects of reciprocity, and his own prophetic eye and mind conjured up the near future the calamitous results which must inevitably arise from manvy, facturers 6f all kinds and clisses failing to take the hint and refusing to follow the example thus said to be set them. As might be expected, however, the lively imagination of the writerâ€"all the more lively that he has lately had rack and ruin to the country on the brainâ€"had much more to do with this harrowing story than might readily be imagined. It was true that a St. Catharines gentlemap, who used to do something in the way of manufac turing agricultural implements, was shutâ€" ting up â€" his est«blishment, ‘There the stubbore facts stood still, and would be induced to extend no further. For . the rest of the piteous detail we are in. debted to the said editor, who evolved out of his own inner consciousness, the flesh whicl, completed this little skeiton,. â€"A contemporary entirely spoiled the effect of the splendidly worked up sensation, howâ€" ever, by informing the world that the agricultural implement maker soid out because he was engaged in another ard more congenial or more profitable business, which required all time and capital.

The interest in the case is as universal as ‘the Episcopal Church, and a brief summary of its causes and results may be of some interest just now, The decision was rendered on the 15th inst., ljuat about the iime the right rev. gentieâ€" man was in this city. THE CASE OF BISHOP CHENEY The tib;v. Chatles E. Cheney, rector of Christ Church, Chicago, was what is comâ€" monly called an * Evangelical," and among: other practices omitted the word "regenerate" in administering the sacrament â€" of infant baptism. He was admonished against the practice, but having persisted in it, he was brought before an wclmmed court, found guilty, and suspended. Remaining conâ€" tum»ceous, a second court was convened, At the bhearing of the case, the evi dence dnd arguments of the counsel took a very wide and extremely interesting ranuge. Eminent churchmen in both hemispheres were examined upon the difâ€" ferences between ths High and Low Church,the powers and functions of eccles. jastical courts were reviewed at vast length, and several hundred volumes of authorities brought into court, from the Scriptures and the early Fathers down through the Rowan and English writers om ecclesiastical polity, to the authorities of the present day, Phillimore and Moss man. The decision, however, treats of but one branch of the subjectâ€"the char« acter and power of ecclesiastical tribunals. The judge held that all churches in tne United States were regarded in law as voluntary societies, h.ving their â€"own laws and regulstionsâ€"these laws and regulations. being . the . stipulations governing _ all . the . relations : of the members. Mr. Cheney, holding hius oftice by and subject to the canons of the churck, ‘was also subject to be bound bYy them... Under the canon, a court of : five aesessors was constituted, but four of whom attended the ‘trial. Such & court most closely resembled a tribunal of arbitration, exercising only quaziâ€"judicial powers, vol= untarily conferred by the stipulation of the parties. In *Long vs. the Bishop ot Cape Town" (1865, jadgments of the Privy Council, 293) the rule was laid down that such tribunals must: @pply to the: civil courts to enforge their senterices, and that such courts would give effect to their deâ€" cisions as they would to. the de= cizions of arbitrators. â€" The rule was imâ€" perative that all the arbitrators must be present throughout <each and every meetâ€" ing equally, whether for hearing evidence or argument, or consulting or deciding on the award, the only exception being in erise of a wilful withdrawal. . One of the assessors being _ absent, the court, .. the judge . held, â€" was not & court within the meaning of the canon, and there was therefore no valid finding whereon a Tegal sentence could be proâ€" nounced, The proceedings of the second court, resting on those ‘of the first, were equally illegal, and the bill was conseâ€" quently dismissed for want of equity. and in accordance with its finding and sertence, utomo Bishop Wanitehouse deâ€" posed him m the ministry. All the members of the congregation, with the exception ot Mr. Calkins, whose name ap= pears as prosecutor in the case, and two others, stood by their rector, and he cornâ€" tinued to officiate. _ Upon this Mr, Calâ€" kins brought a suit in the Cirouit Court to restrain Mr. Cheney from using or holding the church, that being the property of the Protestant Episcopal Church. The plain English of the matter was thisâ€"tbat the church authorities did not much care as to what became of the ‘contumacious rector, but they had a decided disinclination to see him cirry away the valuable church property wiih him. _ Hence the suit, which pnclimuimnw that the only bona fide congregation consisted ot Mr. Calkins and his two friends. As is well known, Mr. Cheney subsequently joined tie Reformed Episcopal Church ot Bishop Cummins, and was electod Bishop. The avove is a sumninry Of the case as it appeared in the Chicago press at the time. The decision was fally expected by both parties, but we have probably not heard the end of the matter yot, It is stil} open to the petitioners of course to take an appesl, or they may introduce new proâ€" ceedings based ‘upon Mr. Cheney‘s with* drawal from the church. This, however, depends entirely upon the next %hhop, and if he is anything but an extremely High Churchman, the opinion prevails that the case will probably be allowed to lapee. The late Bishop Whitshouse w-1 ot a somewhat combative disposition, or at least excessively tenacious, and u} \is doubtful whether whoever may be his _ sucoessor will be â€" as willing to renew the war, There will be but small spoils to the victors in any event, for by a foreclosure sale and purchase the whole property of the church has been placed beyond the reach of the new Bishop evenshould he secure a judge. meat in favour of Mr. Calkins and the two antiâ€"Cheney members of the congreâ€" | gation associated with him in the prosecu« won. = The decision restores Mr, Cheney to his original place in law, as he has declared himself to be in factâ€"a presbyter of the Protestant Episcopal Church,. It is said to be by no means improbable, had he not become a Missionary Bishop of the Reâ€" formed Church of Bishop Cummins, that he would have succeeded his late antagoâ€" nist, Bishop Whitehouse, in the presidency of the affairs of the diocese of Illinois, TuHs Darr Tmms can be procured every morning for 15 cents per week.

Smith,of Port Hope, who was a member of the Legislative Assembly <of Upper Can« ada from 1824 till 1827, and grandson of the late Mr. Elias Smith, a U. E. Loyalist, ‘ who adhered to the British standifd | through the American Revolutionary War, ard afterwards came to Canada and was the founder of the town of Port Hope. He‘ was a brother of the Hon,. Sidney Smith, Q C., of the late J. Shuter Smith, exâ€"M.P., and of the late Mr.Elias P. Smith, ! a prominent banker. peceased was born at Port Hope, in 1811, at that time Smith‘s Creek. He was called to the Bar of Upper Canada at the early age otf 22 and his brilliant abilities as a lawyer soon placed him among the foremost his profession, and st the head of a large and lucrative prsctice. . Indeed, so ked were his abilities that upon his apâ€" pearance in Court â€" before the late Chief Justice Sir John B. Robinson, that emiâ€" nent jarist tras heard to remark of him that © he was even then uom&ntm the profession." _ At a oomminly early period in his career he me & Queen‘s Counsel. _ _ _ § 2 h. antdvendieli s w as i0 The subject of this sketch entered pub® lio life in 1848, contesting the represeatas tion of Durbham County, in the Reform interest, with Mr. John ISuuus, Conservaâ€" tive, (now Judge Duggan, of Toronto), over whom he was elected by a handsome mejority. He had previously, in 1844, contested the election for this County, with Mr. John Tucker Williams, B.N, father of Col. A. T. B. Williams, the present member for Rast Durham in the Legisliature of Untario, but on that cooasion he was unsuceessful. â€" Mr. Smith next encountered the opposition of the late Mr. F. H. Burton, at the general election in 1851, and succeeded in obtaining his election by & considerable cmjcn'llg6 At the general election in 1834 he retired from the “fi: sentation of the County of ham upon its diviâ€"ion into two ridings, East Darham being too strongly Conservaâ€" tiv6 at that time to admit of the successe ful candidature of a Reformer, and sought a constituency in the new County of Victoria, which then for the first time sent a member to Parliament. On that occw ion he was elected by a majority of 10 over his Conservative opponent, Mr. Mossom Boyd, the wealthy and influential lumber merchant. Mr. Smith was an exâ€" ceedingly ecergetic member of Parliament, and the ability that had distinguished him at the bar made him conspicuous in the c uncils of the nation, He was a ready debater, ard being of large grasp of intelâ€" lect, spoke with much force and &vnt o highly was he thought of by the Re:orm Mn e en mt i ie 4 guty that he was offered, by a Heform rime Minister, the Solicitor Generalship for Canada West, but pnlw wion of a private member he decli Ahe homour. The school of politicians among whom he moved numbered among them Baldwin, Lajontaine, Hincks, Allan MoNab, and Geo. Brown, and on the ola)onlu side, John A. Macdonald, &c. He was ever alive to the interests of the eonn:fi and favoured the pioneerâ€" system of ways which has done so much in building up and making Canada what it is teâ€"day. He interested himself largely in helping to Parliamentary aid the Northern, Grand [runk and Great Western Bailways, and obtained the charter of the Grand Trunk between Kingston and To:.onto. In local and municipal affiirs, the subject of our remarks was not less active than in those political. He was at one time Mayor o! Port Hope, Warden of the United Couns ties of Nurthucaberland and Durham, Preâ€" sident of the Hope Consolidated Road Company, and for somée years also Prest. of the Port Hope, Lindray & Beaverion (now Midiand\ Railway, the two last menâ€"« tioned principally owing their existence to his indefatigable efforts in their promotion in Parlisment and in the country. Through his influence large grants of mfle money were obtained for the Mid Railway, and also for the Port Hope Harbour Board, of which he wes for some time‘chairman In the year 1857, the deceased retired volunâ€" tarily from public life and entered into a legal partoership in Port Hope with his late brother, Mr. J. Shuter Smith. In 1863, he teceived the appointment of Jndv’o of the County Court of the County ot Victo. ria, on its separation from Peterboro‘ Uounty for judicial purposes, and was therefore its tirst judge, as he had been its first Member of Pariiament, He held the position for twelve yearsâ€"up to the time of his deathâ€"and during the whole of that period had, we are intormed, but nu-:' judgments a nslod againt, on!y one which was hl: good. He receised the distinction in 1869 of being apprinted one of the fivre County Court Judge, composâ€" ing the Board fer revising th« rates of tariff &0.,of the Division Courts of Ontario, which sat ct&omw 13 “urut ye:rimflin many estimable personal qualities be remembered by the large olrclo“::, friends be bas left behind. He was kindly and generous in disposition, and those qualities endeared him toall classes of the community in which he lived. He leaves a wife and six children, with a hrfo connec. tion of relatives, to lament his loss. One ot his sons, Mr. William Sidney Smith, batrister, is in partnership with the Hon. Stephen Richards, Q C , of Toronto ; an~ other, a barrister, is practising his profesâ€" sion at Lindsay, with Mr. George Dormer, ex»M.P.; another is prominently connect. ed with railway matters in the Midland District of Ontario, â€" and another is em» ployed in the Merchants‘ Bank of Canaâ€" da. As an indication of the great personal re«pect in which decsased was held and the regret with which his demise was very generally regarded, we may mention that on the day of the funeral the stores: in Lindsay (where he died) and in Port Hope (where the remains were interred) were closed, and the fi:gs on the public buil iings were at halfâ€"ma«t. The funeral w(uu:r;o, and '::d attended by Members o Dybion Local Loahlntlnl,m Mayors of Lindsay and Port Hope, Ward ens, Councillors, and the lega} profession of Central Ontario. ‘The funeral train on the Midland Railway was draped in mourn» ing, und also the stations on the road, and as an additional mark of respect to their first President, the management of the road placed cars at the disposal of the funeral party between Lindsay and Port Hope to go and return free of charge.
