It may bo interesting to many of oar readers to learn the origin ol township names iu this county. The township of Keppel was so named from Angtwtus Keppel, the se- cond son of the Earl of Albemarle. who afterwards became Visconnt Kep- pel and Baron Eldon, and who was first lord of the admiralty in the cab- inoUofthe Marquis of Ikokiugham and the Duke of Portland in 178J-'8S Derby was named after tho borough of the same name in England. Beutinck is a noble English name, of which tho two most prominent per- sonages are Lord William Charles, and Lord William Ooorgo, who were both prominent figures m English history. Normanby is a slight change from Nonnantcu. a township iu Yorkshire, England. Some l>avo t'longht it a cor- ruption of Normandy, but we believe it more IiWy to hare been taken from tho English. Sydeuham receired its name from- a district of Kent, near London, Bug. Holland was, we believe, named from a small district in the county of Lincoln, Eng., and not as is lomo- that uame in Earopc. Olenelg ia a scotch name and is so- called from its natural formation. king hilly in tbe extreme. It is large |y settled by Scotch. Egrumont is named from a imal! towu in Cumberland, Eng. bt. Vincent was named from an earldom in Britain. Knphrasia is probably named from a genius of plants, sometimes called uycbright. Artemesia ii a Greek uuine. Arte- mesia was Qoeen of Oalica. in Asia Minor 858 to 850 IJ. C.. and a man- oli m erected by htr was considered one of th seven wonders. Colliugwo:>d was named after Lord Colliugwood, who was senior officer Mider Nelson, and took command at the battle of Trafalgar afUr the lattor's death on Oct 21, 1805.

DEAD BIH : The recent election sampaign has discovered and dcir m- stratod a few facts to the observant mind, facts not gouorally recognized, and which it uiiglu b< w. 1! to observe in paesing. Many institutions, or or- ganizations, of all those that have some upon the scene of activities, but have loft their impression of good, to some extent at hiast, at some point of tin i history . But the great t nd n 7 has been and still is, to carry issuno to extreme*. Then, history disclosrs to us, follows their collapse. We need only glance at the history of some that bate passed in review m the re- eent years, to be assured of tho tacts. Now, in this Now Year's issue, an to who of our citiien's should sit at one balls of council aud governments, the fact has become plain that a new or moization has conn, upon the scene. It's exerting its in licence, for weal or woe, upon tbe body politic. The Patron, whose tentioles appear to be teaching out at every office iu the civil and political institution, wilb a greedy, grasping, unscrupulous, sulfijli mon- opjy, hitherto nnanproaobtd by any of U predecessors. We discern very distinctly the extreme issues this new armal or institution, ia bound to take, so note the indications of ita early col- lapse in oar own little world, Arte- meeia. Besult : A packed Patron oouuoil. May they govern wisely and well, vet if one studies closely the trne meaning of the term, Patrons of In- dustry, we shall find not many of the real Patious of Industry in the seats. An instance in oar own home wai d, No. 4, where the issue stood between Mr. Garr and Mr. Thompson, the cm qneet hinged on a local s< -called patron vote, for its nominee, Mr. Thompson. V. t Mr. Thompson, good man though he may bo, is only a producer, consumer, farmer, while Mr. Carr, although not classed as a Patron, jet is nevertheless, the truest Patron of Industry of the two, having uu the late years past, given more employment to labor industry than any ten so-called Patrons, of which Mr. Thompson is the representative and exponent. Through his sawmill brsiuess, manufacturing and shipping of lumbei. purchasing logs from sea- son to season, distributing thus hun- dreds ol dollars amongst the patrons and so helping many of them out of corners aud financial difficulties and giving employment in handling the material, \f> their ovcipluss Patrons unemployed, also iuli%' tho fact ot the various lines of industry required to be drawn npou continually to jup- port and keep in repair the plant IK - cessary to carry on the lumbering business, whilo being at the same timo largely a producer on the same lines as Mr. Thompson. It surely <s absurd to suppose that the farmer ;s the only Patrou of InduHtry, yet we hear it daily primmed, afltmmi'd and insisted, that tmch is the caao, by prominent Patrons, with whom it is worso than fo'lv to argue the point. Now we submit that if the coiinciln of our Canada aro to b? ruled by such a monopoly of monopolies, excluding uion of well Im nvn business ab'l-ty and intent ity. men of cx>l. ca'culat ing, shrewd insight and forethought, men of the vuno.is businusaes and ar- tistic and professional lines, other than tho former, w" venture to pro diet, Woo to Canada.
