Correspondence.

aw We do not hoil ourselves responsible tor he opinions or staten.ents of our correspondents,

Srr,—I noticed in the concluding part of the Patriot's editorial on Mrs. Youmans, some dishonest allusion to the Reform Club, which would be inclined to let pass, if I thought it will only show some more of the ‘“ rude, rough, ignorance” of the soi-distant Chester- field of the Patriot. But it is more; it is delib- erate lying, with the intention of ruining the Institution, | own, because of the few Conser- vatives.in it. Could not the man come out of the late political campaign without being so completely saturated with falsehoods, litterly so steeped in the brine of deceit that every article that his pen furnishes, partakes, more or less, of the salty flavour. I could excuse the grossest ignorance—even the blissful igno- rance of the Queen Square sanctum—which, along with an accompanying primeral, vice, the whole family—Pere et fils—delight to revel. I could even look at all that, and attribute the effect to its natural cause; but deliberate ir- tention to deceive others, and to injure us, fi cannot let go unrebuked, in justice to the com- munity or our Reform Club. We have had enough work fighting an up hill game with the flesh and the devil, without the printer’s devil attacking us inthe war. Our Club is heavily in d bt, owing to the mismanagement in the beginning; but since May last, we paid off some $700 out of alarge debt of $1,200, leav- ing a balance of $500, besides the rent of $450 to pay in a little while. We do not look to the public for it. We have not asked one cent, nor have we received one from them. Ours is a ‘‘Working Men and Boys’ Club,” and if it were not for the esprit de corps existing amongst us we would be bankrupt to-morrow, and the Patriot man might join the rumsellers and the devil in thir laugh against us. So whatever little

own Club Room; the amusements there are superior to those found in the man trap on south Great George Street, or any of the similar places in this city. Our motto being

‘|}to give as good an entertainment (perfectly

harmless and innocent in itself) to our young men and members as they can get for the sante money (without the curse.of the drink) any- where else, and every cent they leave in their Clubs for billiards and bagatelle they know goes to keep up our institution, ‘Phe Work-

jingmen’s Club,” for. their own profit and

amusement in the coming long winter even- ings—some place they can go and feel at home in—all on a level—-an even footing—on our Temperance floor—young, old, rich and poor. ‘Liberty from the bondage of drink, frater- nity and equality” for all, Our regular price tor the Hall isfrom $5 to $7. When Mr. Morrison, the worthy gentleman who, if I am informed correctly, brought ‘Yeomans here, did so athis ownrisk (he never spoke to our Club about it, they were never asked for their assistance or co-operation, nevertheless they gave it) he got our Hall,on the condition of pay4 ing the Gas expenses—S2.00. Could we possibly do more. The reason of the bungling about the Market Hall—as the Patriot facetiously terms it is, the Reform Club were chiefly instrumental in getting Mrs. Yeomans for last Sanday night? The Patriot man miyht have informéd himself of this-if he liked, One of their number was told to engage the Market Hall for her. But when they were informed of the handsome collection taken up on a previous night in the Hall (Athenaeum) amounting to $3.50—an average of 3-4 of a cent (IL have not the slightest doubt the Patriot man and his charming family were among the audience) lhe was told to counter- mand the order. The price of the Market Hall would-be $12.00—and I suppose the fullest intellect in the Patriot office can figure up if they take $12.00 out of a probable $6 or $7, there will not ~be a great deal left to pay the expenses of the lecture, se we concluded to give our hall for the lecture, only charging the gas light as before... In fact I do not think they even intended making: that charge for Sunday night. The next time a charge is made against the Reform Club | ad- vise the people to look. to the source from which it, springs. Benedict Arnolds will be found lurking in every,camp. I intend soon to explain to the mothers and fathers the true wrinciple and working of our so-much a pilliants and amusements; and feel confident when they are made we will have then their fullest active sympathy for our exertions. ° Yours, etc., MEMBER Or Rerorm Civn.

Ben. Franklin’s Influence.

‘*See here, old woman,” Harry observed with his eyes intently fixed on a ‘*Poor Will’s Almanac” of 1827.

“Now, what is it?” said Mrs. Archibald, without removing her hand from the pie dough.

‘* Why, that great and good man, Benja- man Franklin, who writ into this almanac afore you was born, says: ‘*Never argue at home.”

** Of course not.

Any fool might know

that.” ‘* But it’s a good idea of him, notwith- standing.”

‘* No, ’taint. I knew that niuch afore your old Benjamin Franklin was. ever thought of.”

**'Then, why don’t’ you try it on once in a while ?”

“Try what on ?”’

‘** Not arguing at home.”

‘* Who’s arguing, I’d like to know ?”

** Why, you are.”

ccy ain’t.”’

‘* You are.”

**T ain’t; you are; ain't; ‘yar; ain't; yar; hain’t ’yar-hain’t ’yar-hain’t.”

‘* You Martha,” she screamed, ‘‘where’s that poker? What on the face of the airth’s the reason everything in the house is out of the road when it can do the most good ?”

Henry made a break for the door, but she saw the movement, and grabbing up a piece of dough as big as a watermelon she brought it down over his head and gave it a twist around his neck, as though she was putting the finishing touches on an apple dumpling, while Heury, blinded by the ia- voluntary mask, fled across the front room only io fall out of the window, breaking the eggs he had for breakfast across the sill, and dropping through the open cellar door into the coal pile, where the old woman held him at bay with a soft pumpkin pie, while Martha scrubbed the dough out of his ears, and the smut of his nose with the stove- brush she had been using up stairs.

When Henry got out he confidently but- ton-holed Oxtoby and remarked, with a cau- tious look over his shoulder :

‘*T always thought Ben Franklin was a fool, and now I’m convinced of it.”--Ga:- ton (Pa.) Free Press.

A Novet Proposrrion CONCERNING Nracara Fatrs.—The proposition made by Lord Dufferin to Governor Robinson that the Governments of Ontario and New York shall unite to make of Niagara Falls a sort of international ‘‘ pleasaunce” will be hailed by all tourists and lovers of the beautiful. It is perhaps not possible whol- ly to eliminate from the neighborhood of ‘‘the Staggerer” the rapacious hackman, the quack’s advertisement-dauber, the Hibernian squaw that sells Indian curivsi- ties fresh from New York, the vendor of photographs and the other nuisances that mar a visit to the Falls, but it would he
