I took food in last on Wednes- day evening. She never told me the child had the diarrhoea, but only that she could getno sleep at night. I prepared the food myself which I took. She was the worse for liquor when I saw her last, on Wednes- day night. The food was milk, bread and sugar. `I neversaw any sores on the de- ceased at any time or any marks. `I'1\ 1 II .

It appeared healthy but thin. I only. saw it this once. I do not think Mrs. McDonald was capable of taking care of the child. My wife told me last night to - go and see the child, which was dead,Aand in what a state the house was in.- Mrs. McDonald was drunk onthe floor when I went in at 7 . o'clock. Mrs. McDonald was not sober when I called about 9. month ago for the rent. _ RICHARD Bmwnnn, sworn :--I first saw the deceased `about 6 weeks ago. - Mrs. Mc- Donald was the worse for liquor. The child was lying on some rags on the oor. Noise the women made took me to the house. I went for Constable Vickers, who come up but said he could do nothing as she in her own house, unless he was order- ed to by the Mayor, I have seen her children fetch her liquor in bottles. The child had only a. night-dress on. I could not say whether it had `any sores on it or not. , I did not look minutely at it. The jury, after a. short deliberation, re- turned the following verdict :--` That the deceased child came to his death by chronic diarrhoea. . We are strongly inclined to. think that death was accelerated by neglect of the person who had him in charge, caused by herintemperaite habits; and fur- ther, we are of opinion that matters of this nature, when coming under the notice of municipal authorities, ought to be more carefully attended_ to.

A Lieutenant-Governor under the Canadian Federal Constitution has been found simply an appointee, _and there- fore an oicer of the Dominion Govern- ment, aml of course removable by the action of the Governor-General in Coun- cil, when proper cause is shown, and because this conflicts with opinions, not embraced after impartial 'cxamination, but taken up to i nicvt an emergency, V these parties would i ntroduce the Radi- cal doctrine of clecti~.~.-.

We have contended all along that the V genuine Liberslsof Canada. are the Con- servatives and that the most illiber9L1fac- tion in the country are the Gxsits them- T selves. If any proof were wanting of the correctness of this contention, :the action of the two palrties on this question would settle the matter.` `The Grits are found contending for an obsolete interpretation of constitutional practice, `that the British sovereign wouldnot dare to hsverecourse - to under any circumstances", and of which not Ministry. that has held the seals of oce within the last half century would assume the responsibility; while the Con- servative party contend, for that system, which makes the will of the people ex- pressed through their representatives as sIipreme.. What say the people to the` libe;-a1ity,pthe advanced views of these two system, one of which nds its advo. cs.tes_ in the rlnks of the Grits, and the other in those of the Conservatives? - Tm: truly goocfman thinks the Orange- men should have acuniform.

The truly goodlman 1s such a great friend of the Orangemen that this opinion of` his really Ought to have some considerable weight. `AN old pensioner and ox-member of the British Legion, named _Robt.TB. Foster, poisoned himself at Toronto, with Paris green. He left in note requesting that Chas. Davidson, _Point Keys, Muskoka, be apprised of his death, and asked to come and bury him and take possession of a watch he owned. Tm: Entcrprigc editor'pok_es fun at his truly good contemporary, because the latter recommends somebody's patent corset to the public as beingvery convenient and comfortable. This is` mean. - Of course it is somewhat aggravating for the Enterprise . man to reflect that while he used tohave an awful time of it helping to lace up the rimitive style of corset`, his_younger rival 'ives in an age of. corset` improvements when the thing slips on to the good wife with scarcely any trouble on his part. This jealous feeling is perhaps only natural, but still it ought to be suppressed. - DURING the progress 01 a. violent rain storm, accompanied with heavy peels of thunder and vivid ushes of lightning a few days ago,the family of Mr. Benjamin West, Lot 6, Con. 4. West Gwillimbury, were startled at observing, at the time they were partaking of dinner, the lightning which had entered the door, strike the damper of the stove ind run down the some into the floor, making "a. hole the size of a common marble. The most remarkable feature in connection with it is, the electric uid in- stead of going direct through the oorwhich. was a. double one, ran along for a. short distance after gettingh throng the first oor before making its way through the second into the ground. .

Aggal-. lant ght was made to save the lumber and docks, but it utterly failed. The mill was partly covered by insurance in the Com- imercial Union and Queen s, but the timber is a total loss. The switch of the Northern . Railway Company, just completed into the mill, is badly injured,and one of their cars standing on it was totally destroyed. The total loss over and above insurance will be from s15;ooo to 13,000. Great` sympathy is felt fnr Mr `Rm-.l.r, whn hm: hnn nna nf Two Flos men named respectively VWi1- liam McInnis and Donald McDonald, were charged before a Stayner Magistrate with criminally assaulting a girl of sixteen years, -daughter of `Michael Gleason. From `the evidence it appears that the "girl had been working in Hi1lsdale,~ but that her parents reside near Vigo,and that one of the prison- ers had come to her about twelve o clock at night and informed her that her mother was dying, and that he had been sent to bring her home. The girl without hesita- tion accompanied him,a.nd when about half a mile from where she had been living the other prisoner was overtaken, and he also got into the buggy. They drove some two miles further when one of the wretches drag ed her from the buggy and into the woo s, where he perpetrated his brutal de- signs. The other after she had been re- turned to the buggy and driven a piece further, was guilty of a similar offence. The girl after she was released walked back to Hillsdale and as soon as possible after ' informed her parents of what had taken place, which led at once to the information being laid. The accused were arrested and lodged in Stayner lock-up but managed to effect their escape therefrom, and are now at large. Bscx & Co s. mill,[and the large stock of lumber, at Penetang. were destroyed by re on Fridag night. From the very first the ght wit the ames was h less, the wind was blowing strongIy,a.nd e weather had been severely hot and dry for the pre- tn-Adina dawn. and nvm-vthina was: like tin- rruru quu,uuu yo J.o,UvU. Urrean sylnpauuy is felt for Mr. Beck, who has been one of the.ha.rdest workers among"the new pion- ears of this section,9.n one who has done a. large _a_.tnount of good or `the "place and country. The cause 0 the re in uncertain, but it is supposed to have originated about the boilers. Four months ago "an unfortunate young girl named Sarah Davy. applied for admis- sion to the gaol, stating that she was about to become a mother, and was homeless and friondless. . She was taken in and her case being examined into by the gaol surgeon such as she said but that she was also suffer- ing from a loathsome malady and in the course the girl gave birth to "a male child the gaol the mother,With her offspring, was discharged. Out again on the world the unfortunate creature knew not where to turn. Babe in arms she wended her way into town but could find no one to befriend her. At last she bethought herself of the mother of the man. who betrayed her, and sought `out her house-a little dwelling on Collier-St., standing back from the front road, and adjoining Beard's Cooper shop. Into this house she walked and asked the occupant to hold her child_for a few minutes till she went to a neighboring store. But she never returned. Rid of her infant, the girl made off, and her whereabouts up to the present has not been learned. This was two. months ago, and Mrs. McDonald, with whom the child was left, had nothing for it but to keep it in her possess ion. ' That she was not a {it person, either as re- gards her habits` or her circumstances, to assume the care of a little babe,subsequent events prove. We need not review these I circumstances here, as they will. appear further on.

I had to go to work, for I could ` not starve. I" also gave the child soda biscuits. Witness was very emphatic in her declarations that she had not neglected the infant,,but had cared for it as well as she was able to. Questioned as to what condition she was in the day it died, wit- ness was obliged to admit that she was drunk. nor could she give any correct in- formation as to whenthe death had taken place. She was in the habit of drinking when introuble. Witness further stated that she had applied to the Mayor and to. other members of the council but was un- able to get any further assistance thereby.

When I rst saw it it` was all diseased about thehips and neck. ' Never saw it in a t, but heard of it having them. It would eat as much at a time as` a common man, and was always hungry. Mrs. McDonald appeared very attentive to the child, and fed it often in my presence with bread and milk and sugar. It appear- ed to be losing esh from the time I rst saw it. Yesterday afternoon I got some milk and sugar_and brought it over to the child. Mrs. McDonald -was in liquor and sitting at the back door. She told me the nhilrl um: dead.

It was lying on the oor on some clothes. I told Mr. Beard and his wife of the fact. . Mrs. McDonald. I saw the child about a week or two after Mrs. McDonald re- ceived it, about 6 or 8 weeks ago. It looked well and healthy the rst time I saw it; Mrs. McDonald told me lately that the child had .had some ts. I saw the child about a month ago, since which it . lostesh. I think it wasted for the want of food. I am certain the child was not fed regularly. I only saw Mrs. Mc- Donald feed it on one occasion, when it took a very little; it was crying very much; she was feeding it with a. spoon. I think the child was not fed properly on account of her drinking. Lately she said the in- fant had the diarrhoea. The last time I saw it was on` Saturday evening last. I rst heard of its death last evening between 6 and 7. Mrs. Summersett informed me. The mark on the child s forehead was not `on it on Saturday evening. She kept it on the oor. I only saw it on the bed once. I never saw any sores `on the child. I never examined the child, it was so dirty. Last Wednesday it was in the house by itself, crying. I never saw any part of it except its head and arm. I never saw any sores on it. . (Mas. Jesse Bmnniswor :-I live near.
