LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL ELESTION. sieceeithdi iia ciiaiiiiiin: Candidate for Charlottetown,

HENRY LONCWORTH, ESQ.

THe Datty HKXAMINER,

OCTOBER 14, 1875.

The New Ministry.

Tur choice Sir Johan McDonald has made of a Ministry is announced in our telegra- phie column. Sir John’s knowledge of men and his tact in harmonizing clashing in- torests have cfien been exemplified We feel satisfied that Liberal-Conservatives everywhere will loyally acquiesce in his last selection.

Legislative Council Election.

We understand that Lauchlan McMillan, Esq., of Brackley Point, will probably be the Opposition candidate for the seat vacated by William McGill, Esq. Mr. Me Millan would make a very worthy and efficient representative. He is well posted | in the politics of this country ; and we have no doubt he will be elected by a large majerity of the electors of both Belfast and and Fort Augustus

Mr. Cartwright.

Centre Huron has opened its arms to Mr. Cartwright. No matter how good the Government, it would be a misfortune not to have a good Opposition. Mr. Cart- wright’s talents and acquirements fit him for the Opposition ; and—may he long re- main there.

ia lacianliihataith ttl ceaareesise The Situation.

A CONTEMPORARY remarks that ‘‘The de- parture of Lord Dufferin from Canada, the fall of the McKenzie Government, the elec- tion of anew Parliament, the advent of a new Governor General, and the arrival on our shores of a member of the Royal family, to become permanently associated with our people and our history, are events of such magnitude and far-reaching consequences that we may well pause to consider changes which, eccurring so close together, are al- most tantamount to a revolution.”

The Lesson of Mr. McKenzie’s Downfall.

At last, after long pressing, and with an ill grace, Mr. McKenzie has resigned into the hands of the Governor General the trust he had committed to him in 1873.

His first act was to cancel a number of the appointments Sir John A. McDonald had deemed it necessary for the public ser- vice to make before he resigned. His last act was to make a number of appointments of the same sort as those for making which he so virulently condemned Sir John. November, 1873, and October, 1878—the beginning and the end of Mr. McKenzie’s career as Prime Minister—stand looking at each other, wondering what it all means ; asking each other whether the man who yesterday sent his resignation to Earl Duf- ferin is really the same man who, five years ago, with the flush of expectant joy bright- ening his brow, entered the presence cham- ber, and received authority from Earl Duf- ferin to form a ministry to govern the coun- try.

The first and the last periods may well wonder with eaeh other at the strange trans- formation.

When Mr. McKenzie accepted the trust offered him, he personally stood high in the estimation of the people of Canada. He seemed an Abdiel among politicians —

*‘Among the faithless, faithful only he;

Among innumerable false, unmoved, Unshaken, unseduced, unterrified.” High hopes were entertained by the people that a man had at length arisen whose mental powers were only excelled by his moral excellencies. November, 1873, saw

A Curtostry.—There is at present at the jail a man who has been there nearly three years, and absolutely refuses to leave A little over three years ago he was fined by the County Magistrate for selling liquor without license. He would not pay the fine, and therefore went to jail. While there, his wife went to her father’s house to live. When he came ont his father-in- law presented him with a bill for his wife’s board, and a small sum of money she bor- rowed from him. He would not pay the amount of the bill, so the case was contested and went against him. But still he refused to pay the bill, and again went to jail. About a month afterwards his fa- ther-in-la‘v told him he would let him go if he paid the amount of cost for contesting (some $15), which he would not do. The father-in-law went away, but returned a few weeks after, and offered to let him go if he would pay $5. This he also refused to do. About two months subsequently the father-in-law offered him his liberty on the payment of one cent. True to his rec- ord, even this the man refused and has re- mained in jail ever since. Here is certain- ly a novel case. The prisoner can’t be got out, and the city has to pay the expense of keeping him. The man is said to be well off, and owns a large farm at Musquodo- bolt, where he used to live. He says ‘‘ the farm is so large that a rabbit or squirrel go- ing across it would have to call at his house for food, or they would die of starvation be- fore they got across.” The day he was brought to town, before he left the house he opened a barrel of flour, and put it on the top of atable. He then got a_ lot of bricks and made steps up to the top of the barrel, so that the rats and squirrels could get up to it. He then locked up the house which has not been opened since. This summer he got $60 for the hay that was on the farm. The money was immediately put in the bank. He sleeps in the clothes he wears, beaver and all, and positively re- fuses to change his clothing. There will have to be an Act passed especially to get that man out of the jail. The case, so far as we know, is unike.—Hv. Reporter.

An Awrvut Visitation. — The Elora (Ont.) ‘* Express” has a remarkable story, but does not vouch for it. A farmer, re- siding in the township of Peel, was very unlucky in the getting in of his grain dur- ing the harvest, on account of the numer- ous rain-falls; and the matter preyed so much upon his mind that he was ready to curse anything and everything in his trouble. Having housed all his grain but one load, he only waited for a short spell of sunshine to finish altogether. The oppor. tunity duly arrived, as he thought, and with all despatch he hastened to the field, with a ray of sunshine stealing through his lightened heart at the thought of his har- vesting trials being at last ended. But, sad to relate, the immediate downfall of a heavy shower of rain dispelled his rising hopes, and so enraged him that he swore this terrible oath : ‘‘ By God, if I had you down here I would cut you in pieces with this scythe !’ Such a terrible malediction for a man to utter received a check, which has since being a standing example to all who have beheld it. Upon the very spot on which he was standing at the time he committed so irretrievable an error, he has since remained with a firmness which the

President Hayes has issued a proclamation giving notice that, owing to the spirit of law- lessness existing in New Mexico, martial law will be declared in that Territory.
