L'u-T there are men like Mr. 1 thrust- lnidixw who think the scheme; l".'iu'lafu‘~b-. impraczrcable, and who denounce any expenditure on it as a waste of money. Hence the great importance of putting forward as our representatives men who are able and willing to meet its oppo- nents wherever they may appear,â€"â€"mcu who are themselves thoroughly convers- xut with its merits, and imbued with “to great importance, not only to this , part of Ontario, but to the Dominion. i This is what the Trent Valley scheme l requiresjust now. and it is. to our mind. a very hopeful sign that a man of Mr. Smith’s political standing in the dis- trict has taken up the position which he has done in this matter. and we hope it will be followed by others. As to the manner in which Mr. Laid- law throws cold water on this project. , in his reply to Mr. Smith, we shall have something to say in on early issue. even though the bald assertions which Mr. Lnidlaw makes cannot. be characterized either as arguments or reasons. They are simply the assertions of a. man whose assertions. however honestly and eneagetically made. the narrow gouge railroads are a standing monument. should not be accepted without the clos- est scrutiny. Power. M. Faure, a French gamut. has a- chieved the seemingly impossible feat of boxing up eler-tricity in such a shape that. it. can be sold in “quantities to suit purchasers," to all who desire mo- tive power to run any kind of machine- ry, and the Globe, in an article on the subject, thus amusineg describes the possibilities of the future :â€" “Ir is difficult to conceive what a revolution such a discovery as that. of the practicability of stored electricity would make in our daily life. The power for the day's work would come to be delivered in carts as is now the coal and the milk. A large factory would want. perhaps a ten dollar box of power, while a five cent. box received daily might serve the small household. Or perhaps use will be made of Dr. Siemens‘ theory, the truth of which he has already demonstrated; namely, that the power of all Niagara could be trans- mitted a long way on a single wire, and reproduced without very great waste. 1' In that case the household box of'powcr would be a fixture like unto a gas-meter, except in point. of truthfulness, and the power man Would every morning bring around his wire connected with Niagara and would turn on the rrquisite quan- tity of energy. Then, when anything in the way of household work is requir- ed to be done, the condensed giant could be carried up or down stairs to the scene of operations. Probably a cheap and easy method will be previded ofirrstnntrrncously converting the elec- tricity into heat, and away will go all our stoves and half our household trou- bles. The stored electricity can be set. to cutting wood, running the sewing machine, kicking tramps, rocking the baby, shaking the carpets. and. perhaps, so lazy shall we get. to be, stirring the tea. In the evening, all to be done to get. light would be to connect the power box with the electric lamp and let. it blaze away. Railroads, street oars, buggies, bicycles, and all manner of ve- hicles could be propelled by boxed pow- cr. Vessels could use the motion ofthe waves with which to box up electricity enough to set the machinery going. and when that was exhausted could lie to and store up some more. Storms would then come to be popular institutions. and the fortunes of Vennor would mount like a. rocket. The newapaper would be printed by boxed electricity“, and prob- ably the types would be set. by the same force. Ploughs, harrows and reapers would carry their orvrr motive power. and likely enough the irreverent farmer would sit upon the lightning while it was humbly tilling the earth and gutll criug the harvest. Horses will become of no sort. of use; neither will about half tho produce of the farms which goes to feeding horses. Also, half of the men will become of no use except as distributors of stored electricity. But this will be compensated for by the irr- creuscd comfort of the remainder of the population who will be able to subscribe liberally to the relief of those whom electricity dispossesses of the means of subvistcnce. In short. there is no end to the crnscquenccs which may flow from the boxing up of force. The ap- plication of the title, " greatest discov- cry of tho age," to such a revolutionary affair is absurdly inadequate to describe the pn<3lblllllcs it places within our reach." A Critical Operation. The operation of removing the pro- truding portion of the brain of Mr. John Fountain‘s r-lrild (the necident to whom was recorded in lu~t week's Gazette) was performed on the 23rd in. by Dr. Brysnn, of this village, and Dr. Herri- m.rn. of l.ind<ay. Before commencing the operation they considered it their duty to to fully explain the greatness of the risk to the parents ofthe patient, as ntlrzr medical men had expressed the opinion that the brain could not be soc» cue-fully removed. as the child would certainly dic it'it were attempted. Not- withstanding this unqualified assertion, Drs. BrySon and Horn man thought 0th. erwisc, and. the little girl‘s father and l mother having cnmeot rl, she was plucâ€" ied under the influence of chloroform. l and the protruding portion of the brain. which Weighed two ounces and three- 'quartrrs, was skilfully and expeditious» l ly removed. After recovering from the influence of the chloroform and the shock of the operation the child com- menced to improve and gain in strength. but the latest report as to her condition was not quite as favourable as several preceding ones. Whatever may be the who had it in charge cannot be mo tions, with the certainty before them that, if the child died under the opera. lion. they would incur a good deal of blame from the public and probably from the pmfe.«inn also. but little doubt that her chance of re- cnvcry has been greatly increased by the operation, and we need «arme add There can be l that hub: is receiving every conceivable care and attention that Dr. Brysou and her relatives can bestow upon her. Should ebb survive ber terrible injury, of which there is still only a posibility. her case will be jurtly looked upon as one of the most remarkable in the an. axle of Canadian surgery.

It appears that one of the logs had part of a limb left on it. which caused it to swing around when the horses commenced to draw it, and Mr Stuart, who was alluding near, was struck with such violence between the ankle and knee of his right leg that both bones were broken. Under the care of Dr. Lowe he is doing well, but will Of course be laid up for some time. He says that, had he not: sprung nimbly back, the log would have struck him on the body and might have killed him. LATEâ€"Owing to the necessity of printing the Somerville voters’ list at brief notice, this issue of the Gazette is a day lateâ€"in fact two days; for though the paper is dated for Saturday it al- most always goes to press on Friday of- ternoon, and we could not get this num- ber out until Monday. A votere' list is not much to look at when done, as it appears to be about half blanks; but making it. up is like puttingu puzzle together, indeed, it is nearly as bad as the famous 13, 14, 16, and covering the pages with solid reading would not take much more than half the time and trouble. POTATO BUGs.â€"â€"Fronr-some reason there are very few young potato bugs this season, although there are plenty of old ones and the females are laying with their accustomed assiduity. The great majority of the eggs have, however, failed to hatch, which we attribute to the exceptional coldness» of the weather. and if this opinion be correct even June frosts have their advantages. We speak from our own experience, and if other persons' potatoes have no more juvenile bugs than ours. they are safe from se- rious injury; but instead. of neglectim; the pests on account 01" their numerical insignificauce, it. would be a good plan to make u more vigorous onslaught. than ever upon them, which would. leave scarcely any to perpetuate their species next. year.
