Editorial Notes.
—The Philadelphia Press publishes a Washiogton despatch stating that J. G Biaine and ex-Senator Conkling are about to be reconciled, and that Blaine will be a Republican Candidat» for the Presidency, and Conkling for his old seat in the Senate.
—Lord Lorne in his farewell speech at Montreal spoke of the wisdom of the) Canadian Government in giving the| Northwest Territories a prohibitory law | to start with, and alluded to the very great advantage of our Northwest in this respect as compared with the Westeru States, where spirituous liquors were |

yet the large proportion of ignorant people are destined by their very ignor- drinking; and the liquor dealers, with many twinges of to the inevitable, and | furnish to these ignorant ones the means of accomplishing their destiny, It is very kind in them. It shows up the matter in a new light. One can hardly help sympathizing with the liquor-sellers, ministering as they do, toa class intel- lectually their inferiors. We can now understand the marvellous interest in which these liquor-dealers have always shown. ‘They are out of| sympathy with their business, as at present conducted, and would prefer a more refined class of of visitors at their tables.

we go on improving at speech making, Souris will become famous, as a schoo! of oratory. There is no joke about this, for we are treated to firstrate speeches, and good oratorical efforts. With Professor Burwash, Father Gregory MeDonald, Father Gillis, Father McMillan and D. D. Currie, we cannot fail of good speeches, The three last named gentlemen, and the Chairman, the Rev. J. G, Cameron, ad- dressed the meeting yesterday evening. Their speeches weré listened to with rapt attention. Father MoPhillan, in usual solid and earnes¢ manner, ably and logically defended temperance principles and showed up afhe evils of intemperance. The rev. gentleman was ‘‘ unprepared” with a speegh for the oc- casion; we hope to hear him again, either prepared or unprepared, for his speech was an able one, full of good reasqping and sound argument. The Rev. D. Ourrie spoke next. This gentieman seemed more like himself than on the previous evening. He roused the meeting up to enthusiasm by his stirring appeal; created new sym- pathy by touching references to companions of former days, and very ably defended the right of the people to demand such laws as shali guard them from evils of any nature, even though such laws should seem to in- terfere with the personal rights of private individuals. ‘‘Good laws are created for the benefit of the greater number, and so- called private rights must give away for the general good. A man has no right to erect a slaughter-house, a powder magazine, or arumshop even upon his own land; if they are a danger to the community, especi- ally when actual reqhirements and the law says you shall not.” Father Gillis im- mediately followed. The good priest is so much loved in the community that we always like to hearhim. His easy pleasant way of addressing a meeting, his homely and pointed way of making a good hit, and the winning reasonableness of all he says, makes him welcome every time, and we want to hear him ‘‘again and again.” Next came our chairman, and ina few pointed

—The Republican defeat in Ohio was not expected by that party. All along, up tothe very last moment, they were confident that they would beable to secure the election of their candidate,— Judge Foraker. The party managers do not attempt to couceal the fact that it was a serious reverse, and likely to be attended by bad results. Not since before the war have the Democrats carried Ohio two years in succession and been in complete possession of the whole state government. The prohibi- tionists, altogether Republican, ran a candidate of their own. This ticket had not the least chance of success ; but, on the other hand, it succeeded in doing a lot of harm, for such a slice out of the Republican vote contributed largely to the Democratic success. Besides, they have done themselves vot a little injury, for they have set back temperance ‘egis- lation in that state for some years to come.
—-A meeting of the persous interested in Messrs. D. Morrice & Co., was held in Montreal on the afternoon of the 17th inst., and lasted several hours. Matters were fully discussed aod the whole question definitely and unavimously settled. The meeting was one of the most extraordinary character. It com- prised sixty-nine gentlemen, who repre- sented about $40,000,000 of banking capital, nearly $9,000,000 of money, a few millions of money in cotton manu- factures, and a few millions more in wooilens. The discussion of the macu- facturing question and its relations to capital lasted nearly two hours. This
was the real issue, as there was no question of Mr. Morrice’s com- mercial probity involved whatever.
He had attempted a herculean task, earrying over the mills, and could not do it. Thedecision arrived at was that ap extension of time should be given to Morrice & Co., at three, six, nine, and twelve months, and the meeting was a unit in the decision. It is understood, though this is ssid to have formed no part of the diseus-ion so far as the con- cession to Mr. Morrice is concerned, that all the mills are to shut down to one third of their capacity at once. This is ex- pected to result in clearing off the surplus stock of cottons in three or four months. The statement of Mr Morrice’s affairs show that the bills payable amount to $1,500,000, covered by $1.300,000 worth of goods at market prices. The other assets are $500,000, consisting of Mr. Morrice’s private property, &c, Mr. Morrice represents the following cotton mills in addition to numerous woolen mills :~-the Stormont, 26,000 spindles ; Hudon, 60,000; St. Anne, 21,600; St. Croix, 24,000; Nova Scotia, 22,500; Wiudsor, 12.000; in all, 241,000 out of a total of 462,000 spindles in the Domi- niow.
—The secret is out. The saloon- keepers met in general assembly last week in Milwaukee, and discussed the situation. One decision reached by them was that drunkenness is not due to the saloons, but to “the lack of education ip youth.” They feel pained io notice the low average intelligence ot their drinking constituents. They keep open their saloons aud dispense liquors out of a kindly consideration for the uneducated | who have uot beep taught self control. | They «supply a temporary necessity, When education is geueral, drunkeriness Ms woarser formy will cease, But as!

| made on a certain occasion by the Hon. A. McKenzie, by simply exclaiming, as he fixed his eyes upon Mr. McKenzie, ‘we are all miserable sinners.’ The highest attainments of oratory might be reached by those who formed honest convictions, and possessed education, ideas and elocution. Those who desired to excel as orators must study hard, should be always learning, and should never imitate another orator or speaker. He had attended synagogues and Catholic churches just to hear how they preached, though in some instances he didn’t understand a word they said, and he would visit a courthouse or any other place where public speaking was going on, to listen to the different speakers, and study their styles of speech and play of argument. In the display of gesture, the tinished speaker must suit the action to the word and thought, and not make the mistake which some elocutionists did of cultivating the outside too much; making themselves more of machines than men, by unnecessary gesticulation The different styles of oratory were classed as colloquial, mixed, and lofty, and illustrations given. Ancient speakers, as Cicero, the Roman Orator, the Apostles Peter and Paul, and some others were glanced at, and St. Paul was placed as an inimitable writer, rhetor- ician and orator. Modern speakers came in for their share ot attention, and a few of them were named, Henry Ward Beecher, John B. Gough, Joseph Howe, Sir John A. Macdonald, Hon. A. Mackeuzie, Daniel O’Connell, Richard Lalor Shiel, A. H. Chapin, Talmage, Webster, Morley Pun- shon, and two or three others were men- tioned. They were all strong men, who possessed charming eloquence, each in his own particular style. Joseph Howe was one of the grandest orators of this day, Beecher unequalled as a pulpit orator, and John B. Gough was king of the platform today. Those who desirea to become public speakers, if they would suc- ceed, would find it necessary to be perfect masters of their various subjects, they should speak,the truth and feel it, and have emotions according to their thoughts, not forgetting to place themselves in thorough sympathy with the theme dis- coursed upon, and to exercise the good taste, which would enable them to adapt themselves to all the circumstaaces of the moment.” Many humorous passages oc- curred in the lecture, eliciting hearty ap- plause and laughter. The lecture was listened to with every attention, as indeed such a highly instructive and interesting lecture deserved. The chair was occupied by Doctor Muttart.
On Thursday evening, the Souris Branch of the Dominion Temperance Alliance held another meeting. Many present noticed the decided improvement in many ways displayed by this meeting. A larger num- ber of ladies were present than on former occasions, and our merchants were more fully represented. This is as it ought to be. Temperance sentiment is growing, the people are becoming more and more alive to the evils of intemperance, and public opinion is pointing to prohibition and total abstinence principles as the only fitting safeguard. We are led in the good work by a band of devoted clregymen; from time totime their brethren from the pulpit and aliar join with us, and who is more fitted to help on the glorious cause than the good women and leading merehants of our com munity. It is right that they should take their proper position, for the cause is an honorable one, of which no man or woman need feel ashamed. The Christian Church endorses it; the best members of society, in the higher walks of life, add influence to it, workingmen have learned to love it as a guide to happiness, comfort and independ- ence, and the poor drunkard rushes to it as 2 harbor of refuge. We will all see by-and-by, that there is nothing to be gained, and much to be lost, by treat- ing temperance work to opposition or cold indifference. Let us ‘‘do right and fear not,” and all will be well. Thursday’s meeting then, was one of our best, well at- tended by leading members of our com-
and well placed sentences, he called for greater public interest in the temperance cause. This closed this very interesting meeting.
It was announced that our next public Alliance meeting would take place on Wed- nesday, the 3lst cf October—the last day of this month!
