> Eom gamss o, -- - Editor. See PORT PERRY, MARCI 6, 1879. TY old Reformer' is doing his best to make himself ridicalons over the judgment given in the North On- tavio election protest case, and hesitates not to assert that in justice Mr. Wholer ought rot to have been disqualified. In his usual good taste he takes in hand to lecture the Judge for giving any such dicision, and.as a matter of course the Globe's | sattilites down to the last flicker in the tail of his " milky way" join in | the howl and tell the Judge what is good law and what is bad. These same jurists reiterated the assertion before the trial came on. that Mr. Wheler was periectly safe, that the protest was all a farce, the 3 member elect had dove nothing neither by himself nor through agonts to' invalidate the election. -- Now when the matter home the evidence being so plain that no other decision was possible, is brought they turn round aad abusa the : Judge. Wedo not say that Mr. Wheler, had he been left to himself, would have rushed upon the very ramparts of tho law, but that he was so led by injadicious friends, can, wo think, be doubted by no one who heard the evidence. The caso hud scarcely got opened, | the second witness had only entered the box, when it became that if the clection law was the paper on which it was written, the forfeiture of accomplished fact, and no one we believe, will attempt to deny that as the evidence dozen clections was obvious worth | the seat was an investigation enongh to invalidate halt a proceeded, fairly elicited. To our mind the evidence for qualification was little less direct.-- | dis | From the hour that Mr. Paxton entered Mr, Hurd's office--as the Tempter entered the garden--dan- | Wheler's ical pol gors gathered thick on Mr. path. Here is Hurd a pr iticiun but just then on the opposite side of polities, regarded by Paxton strength. to the Wheler cause if he could be secured. Glittering sands began to loom up between the two, first by Hued but seriously entertained by Paxton, and Hurd given to believe that the matter could be so arranged that be might bave a thousand dollars for his services. Ilere Hurd fairly crossed the Ruticon. The sequent entrance of Wheler and McClellan ou the stage follows in regular .snccession and all w happy as a marriage bell. McClel a good speaker and as a host of thou- in way of joke sub- circumnavigating the riding in the capacity of a "mutual friend", Hurd makiog the riding ring in praise of Wheler and against the N.

Our Local Tomielutire continue th trim away at the old Acts, im- proving some and spoiling some, and so far itis difficult to say whether the good or evil done by the present session will predominate or whether they will balance. It 1s pretty evident that the session is drawing to a close when the member for North Ontario is beginning to give Chancery matters their annual airing; Mr. Paxton's inquiries into Chancery matters are about us harmless as Venor's refer-- ences to the past year's snow. Mr. Crooks is at his everlasting school bill again and it would al. most appear as if he did not know what to do with it; he appears to have thade up his mind to allow no one to really amend his bantling. Budget. The audit of the corporation of Cartwright will be found on the second page of this accounts of the issue.

The five cars which took the leap were pretty much demolished but no one cares for that there are lots of material to make more and plenty of hands which have little else to do. No one is to blame in the matter. This is the first caper the big dump" has cutup. A Further Enterprise.

From the report of the proceedings of the Boord of Directors of the Reach & Scugog | Agricultural Society found elsewhere in | Show of said Society held at Manchester, on Tuesday, 23rd April | We think that it will be admitted by all | that while our Spring Shows may have less | glitter and display about them than fall jrlows they are by no neans less important 'on that account. Our Bpring Shows are decidedly the more important shows con- : x8 : | nected with these Societies inasmuch as our and the improvement of our live stock is | doubtless one of the most interesting and | important objects contemplated by such [ Socictics. But neither spring nor fall shows maintained eflort, decidedly require greater cffort than fall | shows, can be as they | without an and spring shows most | | | : 3 Objects of very trifing value may | be taken to fall shows and all go to make | up the show, but spring shows are nearly | confined to stock animals and these are costly ; and all the more credit to the cnter= e and liberality of those who invest in | superior animals { our stocks are | | by which improved. We expect is sce a worthy cffort put forth to make the coming show | the best we have ever had ; but in order to | secure a good show all should whatever they have got to show. ss rer Fire! About ten o'clock on the night of Wednes.- doy, 5th inst, the unmusical clatter {of several bells admonished the (villagers to look out for fire.

News from Europe has had but little in- terest during the past week not a Hhttle political and social jangling have been in- dulged in but it has not amounted to much, long hours and short pays appear tu be the order of the day. Russia will have to wait some time ere she gets one dollar of the promised indemnity from Turkey unless she takes it out of her skin. Britain is certainly on slippery ground amongst the Afghans on the cne hand and the Zulus on the others. Of course she will have to fight her way out of it but she would have had more honor if she had never got into it. It will prove a big bill of expense and precious little honor can come of it.
