If our memory serves us right, the London, England, Lgmcet and the New York Time: `last year tool: the trouble to purchase nearly` every article we eat and drink, at the leading whole- sale and retail establishments of London _ and New York, which were submitted to chemical analysis by competent parties. a 1 The result` was something frightful, viz., V it was incontestibly proved that ninety- ve per cent of our food was adulterated, 1 much of it with deleterious and even . poisonous substances. No wonder, such . being the case, that we are not as tall, comely or strong as were our fathers, or- that medical men constitute such a large proportion of our population. Does not this disgraceful state of affairs also con- clusively prove that there is a deal of scoundrility practised by those who are not in the slightest danger of seeing the inside of any gaol whatever ! But not longer to dwell on this aspect of crime, matters are not` at all improved if we take what are by some called the lapsed classes into account. It is im' possible to read over "our gaol statistics without being struck by the appaling `Were that done, we venture to say that 3 fact that a very large proportion of our criminal classes are young persons under i 20 years of age. This, to our `mind, is due mainly to parental misgovernment p or rather no government at all. An- other striking fact is the number of times which many are committed to our gaols in the course of a year. This, in our 1 humble opinion, is due to the fact, that our gaols are made much too comfortable for our criminal horde. We don't be- lieve in` the brutal treatment of prisoners ,-they are men-fallen though they be A _and must be treated a_s_such. _}ut we don't believe that our g`ao1s`aho.ul.d be made havens of rest for those who are . preying on society's vitals. Modern } philanthropy has gone too far in this re- spect. It is no misnomer or exaggera- tion to say that, by this class, our gaols are really festeemed Hospitals `and rest houses. Now, it may per- haps, be all very well to give the in- mates of gaols clean lodgings and wholesome food, but still, -whilst all this- is just and proper, some method should be hit upon by which the inmates may become _ feelingly impressed with -the idea that they are-"eating. the bread, and drinking the water of aiiiiction." these visit to our gaols would not be so frequent, as gsol statistics show they are now. . We are rmly of opinion that our prisons "should, in order to be more eiiicient than they are at present, be made places of discipline and suffer- ing, in order .that they may be, what they are not at this moment, a terror to evil doers," particularly the old and hardened offenders. In England eor- : pom! punishment has proved itself .3 : powerful deterrent to frequent incarcera- * sol`. and acts of personal violence." ` We ' also notice, inthevarious gaol '4 atatistiaspublinhod, thenumber of . arexsent to fo1_-`very trivia: '. .o`enoeI. 4W,0_IeIpec'tftIily submit th_ata _ 3&5 eeting wouldshnvqja much '7 sndilithe ; P0193`! of ad. 1-` __-_.I.I_-.I LI__L' L- - ___4 3 , '7 --....,...wu nuuuuuty 111 Inc worm IL!

There were only nine cases, most of them of a trivial character, such as mispelling of names. Two persons asked to be placed on the list on the [ground of per- sonal income, , The Judge, however. de- cided that the law did not take effect till the "assessment of 1875, and that if any" had been placed thereon on that ground the Act was not legal. His Honor praised the law as the complete- ment of the various Acts for improve- ment in the facilities of correctness in the Voter's List. He advised that in future the list should be printed in pamphlet form with suicient space between the names, to allow of the emandations and alterations necessary. He hoped .that this suggestion would reach the ear of the County Council, and that they dould take such steps as would ensure uniform- ity in printing the "lists, and thus afford ` better facilities for carrying out what he believed to be a most excellent provision. His Honor also complimented our Town Clerk for-the intelligence and readiness he had displayed in getting the lists up.

LIBERAL loonsnnvkrivni coN- * vnwrxou. . - The Liberal Conservative Conven- tion, held in Toronto yesterday (Wed- nesday), was a great success in every way. The` ;_attendance of delegates was very large, and embraced the leading members of the Party from `every section of Ontario. The utmost enthusiasm was manifested in the proceedings. In the course of the meeting some very able sud telling speeches were made, and excellent sug- gestions oered. We congratuiate the Liberal Conservatives on the success of this Convention. At the meeting a unanimity of feeling and determination of ` purpose was shown which cannot fail ofbeing attended with the most benecial results. ` So the Grits of North Simcoe are going to hold a Convention in Barrie on the 13th of`0ctober next, to take steps to'trot out a man in the interest of theirparty, for the Local House. We would like to.be there and hear the martyr Lount denounced the late"- John Sandeld Macdonald and his Cabinet. It really would be refresh- ing; ~ We know that about three `years ago that gentleman `went on "bended knees to McKeIl`er, and beggedpardon for being- such a naughty boy as to wander from the Grit fold when he was an M.P.P., Mr. McKell'ar granted dear William lull abaolution, and he was admitted again into party fellowship, but to keep in good standing it is ab- solutely necessary to eat the leek; and so show the sincerity 0! his repentance. We wonder if such an immaculate purist ever spent money in bribery` and co'rruption`l We believe he did, be- cause he reviled Sir John so much and called him such ugly names a few months since. Like the Scctchman with the Sabbath, he had such a deep reverence for it that he could never get it from the depths of his heart, near enough to the surface to keep it. So Mr. Lount has such a deep respectsfor purity of elections that no never did presume to practice it. He `talked against corruption glibly with the tongue but practiced it with his hands. Oh, constituency thou art a jewel.

V \,,_...., .. -~ v----- Da. Omvna, as security to the Bank, called the attention of the Court to the -gross fraud evident in the carrying on of the business; not a dollar of the bank advances was paid back by Salter; some $6,000 after crediting 2oo,ooo feet of lumber sold to C. H. Clark. Allowing 200,000 more for odds and ends, and` the 60,000 only that Salter accounts for, there was the total of half a million feet of lumber made away withtby Insolvent, together with all the sums he admits to having collected amounting to about $1,200. In chattels he admits selling over three hundred dollars worth, and yet with the proceeds of lumber and chat- tels, not a dollar was paid or attempted to be paid either to the Bank or any of his creditors except Carson, whose claim seemed indenable. The ragged books showed nothing, and were apparently purposely so kept to avoid accounting for the property. It was proved that $6 per thousand would stock and put 8200,- OOO of lumber in Barrie. Insolvent got ' largely in excess of the amount necessary to pay for that work in cash, yet not a dollar had been paid back, and nothing was known of the weeding process going on, so secretly was it pursued. The In- sol x ent darkly carried on his transactions; and managed in one year, besides his bank debt, to mulch the merchants of Barrie and elsewhere to the tune of over $11,000 more, not even attemptingto pay,. but incmzssing his liability. Wages were stared off, and the man who did the heaviest part of the work, sawing the lumber by contract, was victimized with every one else. Figures will not lie, and it could be easily seen a studied fraud was carried on and criminal prosecution ought to follow up such scandalous pro-. nnntlinorsz We think the day is not far distant when Messrs.

They added to the sin of nhainelem corruption, that of hypocrisy, -the most consummate Land disgusting.

It appears that~de- ceased was getting on a street car and by some meansthe unfortunate lad slipped off the. vehicle, falling in `front of it, when its two heavy wheels passed right over his body. The poor lad was im- mediately picked up by the conductor and carried into the drug store of 1111 . Steward, Young Street, Dr. McFarlane being sent for. Shortly afterwards that gentleman arrived, as also did Dr. Ful- ton, and the two medical gentlemen pro- ceeded to sew up a deep gash which had been made in `the regionof the stomach. It was found however in turning the boy over that both spine and plevis had been completely crushed, and all hopes of saving the life of the sufferer were abandoned. The lad was placed in a conveyance and taken to his home, but only survived a. few minutes after ar- riving there. Deceased was about 12 years of age. ' Tss Musxcu.
