The following is a correct account :—-A few of the young men of the District gathered at the Schoolhouse that evening for the purpose of organizing a Debating Club, After the business ef the club was transacted, a dis- cussion was started on the Syndicate question. After a warm discussion, a motion was made “‘eondemning the Government's action in relation to the Syndicate.” An amendment then followed upholding the Government.

It is said that Canada is the place fora r man, and this no doubt is true ; but it is also the piace for a man of means, fer capital tells a tale there. It is not prob- able, however, that many farmers of capital will face the ills they knew net of in Canada; and indeed I would not advise anyone to go there who is deing well in this country ; but, then, it is hardly fair to Canada that only poor men should ge there as farmers, for money is wanted to develop the riches of the soil—not laber only. I know farmers in England who toil year after year, and live a ee without beingany forwarderat the year’send thing to me seems very hopeless, and I would say to such men, ‘You will get along faster in Canada.’ There is not, and has net been, a better time than the pre- sent for English farmers going te Canada.
