Another of those pleasant gatherings. a social and concert, will be held at the parochial school, Collier street, this (Thurs- dav) evening. We hope to see many more in attendance than at the last.

L VUIII IIUILUYU IILIGII Ll JJBIVUI-I J McCarthy, instead of falling backward into the arms of Old Tory toadyism, had placed himself in the front rank of the radical ele- ment that is now strong in the Conservative party, no man in the country could have stood before him in the succession to the leadership. As it is, unless there is due re- p_entance, I very much fear Moses will never get more than a sight of the promised land. - ICA. `Teach is Dalton McCarthy, Q. 0., M.P., Sir J ohn s right hand, and leader of the im- perial federation movement. He first de- clared for this latter emotional insanity at a , banquet in Barrie upon the occasion of the completion of their new Dost-oice. He has since spoken in Montreal, and has, as before stated, taken the lead in the movement. This, to my mind, is the one great foolish act of his life. N o doubt this step has been taken after due thought, and in the hands of so able a man will be iade to do the best possible duty. McCarthy is evidently mak- ing quiet preparations for a campaign, and one of these days will astonish the Dominion -by a speech that will show more points in favor of the question than the people ever dreamed of. But the scheme is vertebrae- less, phantasmagorical, impossible of realiza- tion and undesirableeven if it could be at- tained. It is_ repugnant to the independent Democratic aspirations of the young men of both parties, and it will be the young men McCarthy will have to depend upon when the struggle for the leadership fairly faces him. The loyalty twaddle of the last con- vention was bad enou h -imperial federation is worse. I verily elieve that if Dalton IILJ`...-H-y :1-|ana1-I A; falls:-an `-uonlyuvnrrl dnfn -"1l"ZLZI{E` 3Zi`e37"iIiL`Z`"`iic.r thy is a i lfsrner. lllie owns 1:: splendilcll farm at Barrie, \ an snot er in t e towns ip of Flos. Be- sides, he has fine residences both in Barrie and Toronto. The Barrie farm is well stock- ed with thorou hbred cattle, sheep and hogs, and these are a1ton s heart's delight. He would sooner browse around among his Dur- hams than win a` law-suit. I remember that gnce he and l and two others were driving , own through Flos. We were out election- eering. The rain was pouring down in tor- rents, we were wet to the hide, far from home, no whisky, and perfectly miserable. 'Nt' a wgad hadMbgan spoken for an hour, w en su enly c art y pulled up the horses and sat gazing down into the -road. Of course we all stood up and looked, too, but seeing nothing particular asked what was the matter. V Those. are the nest young pigs I've seen in the township, re- plllied IcCarthy.

Sir John Macdonald has not a single {personal enemy--except disap- pointed oice-seekers-though he has` plenty of most ardent political ones, McCarthy s friends are friends for life, but his political {opponents absolutely hate him, and he has not a few bitter-`personal enemies. Concilia- tion is not his forte ; he is often brusque and harsh, intolerant of the opinions of others, except when experience has taught their ' value. ` He never forgives an enemy, he sel- dom forgets a friend. Nearly always pressed with business, he has little time to devote to [social duties and none to waste in idle con- versation. He is chock full of sand, as witness his leaving the safe constituency in Car-dwell to engage in a combat where he had been thrice beaten. At tunes his de- termination verges closely on obstinacy. His _ rsonal appearance cannot be described. hen you say he is a thin, spare man, you have said it all.- Th re is no single mark of ;nt`Iu;:ls1'n`:I!u1 AI! dnfnllnnfnnlifn nknn` Lion lwhen he does it is with e'ect. A His deliver- ance in the King: county election case prac- tically aettled vexed question. He has a. petgechemegthe `railway commi_eei'on, which been eat upon several times, but which : "he will ultimately force through the house. Outside the house he practically manages` the party in Ontario. He run the last great Conservative convention, framed most of the resolutions, and in" short, bossed` the iob. When Sir John dies, and Tupper and` Chap- leau have got through -ghting, the leader- Iehip should naturally fall to McCarthy. _Ann. mun Mnnnrfhv nnnuoaana hnnn AC -Collier street Methodist church, Rev.

The deceased was the sixth daughter of the late George Armstrong. Her life was one of marked usefulness and benet to the community in which she dwelt. Dili ant to full all the duties of life, her cheer ulness and nobility of character endeared her to all with whom she came in contact. _ She early chose the part of Mary at the Master s feet---that good ._ part which cannot be taken away, and ever after she manifested more and more that it was not all of life to live nor all of death to die. "She bade the writer of this notice tell the young people that there is a beauti- ful home bevond the grave, and that it would be better for those who commence early in life to live for that home.

Cook s hold was too stron , and, though with a reduced majority, he eaded the poll. A year later came another contest, and the battle was terric. Money fairly went beg- ging. This was in the good old times when votes were openl and habitually purchased. Cook, it is sai , boasted that he had ten cords of dollar bills, and the ten cords car- ried the day. Never in Canada was a con- stituency so fearfully and shamelessly de- bauched. Both candidates ung money right and left. Cook admitted spending $28,000, but could not remember how much more. What McCarthy spent has never been known, Legal proceedings followed, ' Cook was unseated, the constituency re- opened, and after another tremendous struggle, McCarthy was again defeated, but by a very narrow majority. Just about this time a vacancy occurred in Cardwell, and a _ Conservative embassy waitednpon McCarthy and presented him the constituency. He accepted upon the understanding that at the end of the term he was to be free to return again to North Simcoe This was in'_ 1876. His two years in that parliament added to his fame, while his lucrative practice repair- ed `the ravages of the three previous elections- Then `came the general election of 41878. Cardwell reverted to Tom White, now the Hon. Thomas. North Simcoe at that time extended from Grey to Ontario, -and from a line drawn due west from the head of Kempenfeldt bay to the Georgian bay. . It included the townships of N ottawa- saga, Sunnidale, Vespra, Flos, O_ro, -Medonte, Tiny, Tay, Orillia, and Matchedash, and the towns of Barrie, Orillia, Collingwood, Pene- tanguishe, and Midland; with a population of about 60,000. To canvass such a district was a work of immense labor. but both Cook and McCarthy worked night and day. and , you all remember that that contestlasted all summer. But on the night` of the 17th of September, 1878, came McOarthy s reward, and amid the ruins of the old Mackenzie re- form party Herman Cook sank out of sight into the sea of political oblivion.
