He spoke of circumstances, the jealousies of rivals and the irritations of physical suffering. Special- ly marked characteristics `were his natural ' statesmanship, self culture, patience, courage, tact, and above all his condence in God and loyalty to the Supreme Will. The results of his response to the invitation given him to assume the national control in this great crisis of history were duly summed up and reference made to the words of the venerable Sergeant Maynard, But for your highness I should have survived the laws too. :1, `_mI,!-1_ his victory as a sel -ma e man, over adverse` L uuuau nwvv nu. vow `H. ...v - The speaker referred to the mottowhich William emblazoned on his banner when the arms of Nassau were quartered with those of England as one worthy of national venera- tion and of reverence by all English speaking eo le, Will maintain the liberties of Eng- | an and the Pr_otestantreligion.

Reference was made to the unique character of the Book of Deuteronomy as a book .of national precepts and sterling principles. Attention was called to the necessity for deniteness of faith, strength of will and force of conviction "in the moral and religi- ous educator, avoiding the Scylla of Rational- ism and the Oharybdis of Romish blindness V and perversion. He spoke of doubt as en- ervating, while faith was strengthening and up-holding. Of doubt as the forerunner of anarchy and disintegration, while the Bible believed. accepted, loved, obeyed, was the best antidote to national ills as welll as to individual depravity. , That art, literature and oratory had built their highest monu- ments on the beauties of the divine word, yet sentimentalists, affecting. to adore art forgot its inspiration. He emphasized the necessity for careful instruction of youth in reverence for the Bible if we would have a national life at all in advance of the lawless days of the French Commune. ' ,,AA_.,_ , - Decoration Day. Last Wednesday was Decoration Day in Barrie, and the Oddfellows, Sons of England and Royal Foresters joined in the interest- ing ceremony. The procession was formed about half past _two o clock, and consisted of about.28 members of the Odcifellows, Bro King, `N. G., and Bro. R. King, jr., Chap- lain. Of the Sons of `England there were about, 34, G. Dudley, Pres., and Charles Swinnerton, Chaplain, and some 26 Forest- ers, Alexander Mcliae, Chief Ranger. The procession was led by the 35th Battalion Band which played a number of appropriate pieces of music on the march to the Union Cemetery. A large number of the citizens followed in the procession and a great many had already reached the Cemetery when the procession arrived. There was a wondrous` profusion of `flowers and some of the graves were literally covered. We noticed a mag- nicent wreath of white owers on the grave` of Thomas Summersett. and a splendid one of roses on the rave of George Rogers, placed there by the ons of England to which Society the deceased belonged.

A man named Harrall complained -that George Pull, both of Stroud, had committed a grievous offence against him by knocking him down and kicking him on the side of the face.

Considerable discussion took place between the counsel for the parties as to whether the case was one to be summarily dealt with, and the magistrates nally de- cided that it was. Pull was fined $10 and costs and required to enter into bonds to keep the peace towards Harrall himself in $200 and two sureties in $100 each. Mr. H. Lennox appeared for the complainant and Mr. J. A. McCarthv for the defendant. A lad about 12' years old was charged with throwing a stone at a little chap about three years of age and injurin his shoulder. The lad pleaded guilty to stri ing the infant and throwingat him a piece of bark. The parents of the two infants were in court and gave play to a deluge of words, which neither the dignity of the court not the presence of the constables could wholly suppress. A -ne of 25 centsand costs was imposed, and the Mayor cautioned the lad against the dangerous practice of stone throwing. .a back window, which that night had been inadvertently left unfastened. N othing else was touched, although Mr. Blackmore has `a large stock of valuable cloths and Mr. Sim- mons thousands of dollars worth of furs in the shop adjoining, and to which access could have been easily made `over the parti- tion which separates the two shops. The supposition therefore is, that the robbery was done by green hands, who felt the need of something comfortable on the feet, a clean fashionable collar and a. "miwaculous tie.

The Admission of Correspondence Does Not Necessarily Imply that We Hold the Opinions of the Writer. ,The following letters addressed to the Editor of THE Nonrnsaw AD\'A.\'L`E, have been received for publication : Revising Oiiioer Morgan Justied. DEAR SIR,-Honor to whom honor is due. I have noticed that the Globe has at- tacked Judge Morgan, the Revising Barris- ter for North York, in rather an unpleasant, and from what I saw in attending some of the courts, I think in a very unjust way on the revision of the Dominion Voters List. It is from a deep sense of justice to a Judge holding a high judicial position that I at all write. and on this ground I unhesitatmgly say that so far as Bradford and West Gwil- limbury are concerned in the revision of their lists there was the greatest justice shown to all parties by the Revising Barris- ter. The gentlemen engaged to look atter the lists on the Reform side give Judge Mor- gan very great credit indeed for the courtesy, justice and impartiallity that be displayed to- ward them in every one of the courts at which they had attended, and all parties agreed that a more impartial decision could not have been rendered than was in every case. The first court I attended I was cer- tainly prejudiced against the Judge from what I had read, but 1 am proud to say my prejudices were soon removed after listening to his very just decisions. It is to be regret- ted that any portion of the public press. shiuld attempt to defame our Judiciary for the purpose only of belittling and blacken- ing the Electoral Franchise Act. If the Act is objectionable why slander our J udges so long as they mete out justice to the appli- cants for votes as I am now convinced has been done from what I am told by those who I attended all the courts in North York. . `I .._..

Yours respectfully, J D` B0<> l`II, A" Reeve West Gwillimbury. We are indebted to the Secretary of the Berlin Sangerfest for a press badge and the prospectus and programme of the great musical festival to be held in that town on the l1th,`l2th and 13 of August. This will be one of the events of the season, and will doubtless draw the lovers of music in great crowds to that pleasant locality. Our Cer- man friends know just what to do and how to make their Sangerfest a success. A most excellent program has been provided. Hay- den s Creation will be performed by a chorus of eight hundred voices, the solo parts being taken by some of leading musical celebrities of Ontario. There will also be musical mat- inees, receptions, trades processions, compe- titions, drills by uniformed orders, for which prizes of $100, $75 and 8.30 will be awarded. Open air concerts will be given, the whole closing with a public ball on the evening of the 13th.. Reduced fares have been arranged. on all the leading railways. To all who want. to spend a few days in the most plea- surable way, this Sangerfest will afford one of the best opportunities they can have, and We most heartily commend it as Worthy of more than provincial patronage.

As thetrains arrived during the morning. crowds of the brethren from various Districts with their wives, their families. and the younger ilads with their sweet hearts swelled the multitudes which crowded "the streets. The steamer Orillia brought `about 300 from Orillia and the steamer Enterprise brought a l reater number from Bradford. The Barrie dga went about half way to Allandale to meet the Allandale Lodge. and when all the lodges had arrived the line of march was taken up. There were 23 lodges represent- ed, 7 from the Innisl District, 4 from the Barrie District, 5 from the Bradford District, 5 from Orillia District, Allanwood Lodge from Penetang District and one lodge from Severn- Bridge. The following Brass Bands - furnished music during the day: The Allan- dale Band, Ivy and Thornton Band, Orillia the) 35_tIh Battalion Band. `_L___ `_`____ _, , up 1 1 Band, Bradfoad Band, _Ohurchill Band and ` vuv uuvu uauutuulu Duuua ' 1 Besides these there was a fe and drum i band that attracted considerable attention. ` The march began shortly before noon, the procession going down Dunlop to Berczy street, up Berczy to Collier, along Collier to the market, where it was disbanded for din- ner.

After two or three had tried to speak in the Hall a return was called to the stand in the open air where the people had first assembled, and notwithstanding the sun's rays and the clouds of dust it was better than the noise and suffocation of the Hall.
