from Dr. Jenkins.

T'o the Editor of the 4 ~rrs Srgx,— In your editorial comments on my Detter you avoid the r al point at Issue, and ndeavor to create a false Mnpression on the dblic mind as to the course have pur sued,

As the result of a recount of votes in

stituted by the leading supporters of the Liberal-Conservative Party, | was declared igcted and officially gazetted as a member

or Queen's Covnty. I was thus placed in Ethe position previously ocoupied by Mr, Brecken. This position was not to me

satisfactory, ana being preciuded, by his | M oxiremely ungentiemanly demeanor towards me, from holding any communication with | :

Mr. Brecken with a wew to an amicable

nt, I ay arrangement, he .

the Liberal Conservative Uiuo to call the

y together to consider what was best to

be done in the interests of the party. Mr,

DeBlois xpproved of the suggestion, and |

_ ak to Mr. Breeken on the Maaid he would speak . Perea re a I received a/°°™petents, whose only qualification ap-

subject. A few days after Sietter from him stating, that having con- with Mr. Brecken he declined to | i then through our columns suggested that a couvention of | delegates should decide the point at issue | F between Mr. Brecken and myself, has been my action and thisonly. Yet you| would have the public to believe that I had | attacked my colleague's seat, whereas it is| the reverse. He has attacked mine, by | itioning to have me unseated or the | election void as between him and me; and} the howl you have attempted to raise against | me is simply because [ have availed my- gelf of my right to appeal from the judge- | ment Mr. Brecken had obtained against me | sad which I conrider ubjust; and I am fortified in this course by the fact that most | of the judgements of Mr. Justice Peters, | that Lave been appealed againat, have heen reversed ; and though you, Mr, Editor,

™ now express doubts if justice prevails at Ottawa, it is not very long since you were

troubled with still stronger doubts as to the

ibility of obtaining justice while the | Peters & Peters & Peters combination ” | wasin force. At that time you would | hardly have termed the appeal against a/

stances a “‘ malignant proceeding.” Upon my statement of Mr. Breckens | uage to Mr. Robertson you attempt: in | a feeble and quibbling m&nner to throw | discredit. Would it not have been more becoming in a truth-loving honorable man | to have ‘ascertained from Mr. Robertson | whether the conversation was correctly re- | rted or not, oreven to have asked Mr. | en to deny it!

You affect to jest at my proposal to de- | cide the dispute by an appeal to the Elec- tors, and you put a false complexion on the ease when you speak of putting the country “to the expense and turmoil of an election, to decide a personal quarrel between Brecken and Jenkins”. It is not so—the “personal quarrel” was not of my seeking ; but to me and to everybody else I imagine, it is a matter of perfect indifference. I only alluded to it because the fastening of this quarrel upon me by Mr. Brecken has led to the existing state of affairs.

The case jn a nutshell stands thus, I have been returned and officially gazetted as member for the County. Mr. Brecken contests the seat saying he has a majority of votes. 1[ propose to resign the seat and let the Electors say who is their choice. Oan anything be fairer than this, or than my proposal in the first inception of this difference to leave it to be settled by a con- ference of delegates appointed by support- ers of the party.

If you are sincere in your professions of Solicitude for the welfare of the party, and if you believe in the truth of your asser- tion that I have forfeited the confidence of the great bulk of ‘he Liberal-Conservatives, and that I have not “ the ghost of a chance of being elected,” you will surely urge upon Mr. Brecken the adoption of one of these two courses, as certain to load to a glorious triamph for him, and an _ ignominious defeat for me.

In the prospect of an election, should Mr. Brecken select that mode of settling the dispute, meetings of the party would be held in the different districts to decide who was the more fit and proper candidate to represent the county. The majority would make the ‘choice, and the minority would, as usual, acquiesce, and thus the breach, inatead of being widened would be closed, as no man would be so insane as to run in the face of such a decision ; or, if Mr. Brecken prefer to leave it to a convention of delegates, there would be a still more ready healing of the breach.

But you oo; Sir, and Mr. Brecken well knows, that he has forfeited the con- fidence of the constituency, that he dare not face the electors, and that is manifestly the reason for refusing to leave it to the people to decide. But he and you, Sir, may rest assured that the constituency of this county is too independent and too resolute to have aman forced upon them against their will.

You conelude your article with the fol- lowing sentence:—‘‘His persistency will only add to the regret of his supporters and true friends, while to him the end will only be the more bitter.” Had you ssid to the regret of the little clique of whom you are the exponent, insignificant alike in num- bers, ability and influence, who did me the honor to show their enmity by opposing my nomination with all their feeble might, you would have been nearer the truth, than you have been at any time during this discussion. Iam proud to say 1 number amoung ‘‘my supporters and true friends” the great bulk of the stalwart yeomanry of the country, who are daily rising in intelli- gence, wealth, and influence, together with the honest and independent mechanics and workingmen of the city, who will begeady, if Mr. Brecken has the courage to give then: the opportarity to prove the truth of my assertion.

“While to him the end will only be the more bitter.”

Well, all I can say is, that should the end prove “‘more bitter,” which I do not in the least fear, I cam answer for my friends and myself, that we will accept our fate becomingly, and not howl and berate our opponents for our want of success.

Your sneering allusion to the message of ‘Peace and Goodwill” is hardly becoming in one who wears a surplice in Church. It Will not be forgotten.

Yours, &c., Jan, 4th, 1883.

Seom strange that Mr. Douse would allow the paragraph in question to g° uncontradicted, if it were not true.

Pay no attention to the sophiistries of those agitat- ors, who, being too indolent to prosecute any busing ss for thems ives, occupy their time in traducing the different members of

Wait until the reports for the past year are published, which will be on Monday next—and you will then be able to decide | whether, or not it is to your interests to retain the services of business men, whd ihave, for the past two years, brought in surpluses; or allow the management of Civic affairs to revert into the hands of in-

Srr,—I would like te ask your corres- pondent ‘* Vigo,” who appears in your issue of yesterday, a question: —What part of any country will he go to where old maids are not to be found, and found in abundance, too, And would it not be better for him, instead of ‘sneering at the preponderance of that highly respectable class in Springfield, were he to try and diminish their numbers; and, by so doing, also diminish the number of cross-grained, eranky, pernicketty old bachelors. 1 have a thorough contempt for them, Mr. Editor.
