As to the Belfast-Murrey Harbor Rail- | war, The Patriot is appareatly striving to make up for the long silence of Sir Louis

Davies, aud the do-nothing policy of the Government of which he is a member, by publiching long columns of editorial in depreciation of the eminent services of Mr. Martin.

Mr. Martin has, by his able advocacy in aud out of Parliament, brought the matier into prominence, and induced the present Government to passa Minute of Council

and make a survey. The Patriot now publishes long editorials and evidently

Tue orgauization ef the Liberal Con, servative party in Quebec is being effected under the able management of Mr. Dalby and it is hoped that it wil] extend a)) over the country. No man can tell the day that an election will be sprung upon tLe people. The Montreal Gazette has an ideathat Mr. Tarte may dissolve parlia~ ment at any momest and ask the country io endorse his conduct for the past two yeare. It says:

“Almost every lake town in Western Ontario bas been given to understand by Mr. Tarte that the Government bas for it either & harbor grant, the price of a grain elevator, Or & new railway connection.
