ing of the candidate chosen by the Lib-I erals of this county to be their standard j bearer in the coming campaign, we have I pleasure in publishing the following per-: sonal item : The Hon.Henry Aylmer, who, if elected ; as Liberal representative of the County of Sherbrooke, will doubtless play a prwmi-; nent part in parliament, comes of one of the most aristocratic families in Canada.! His father, Lord Henry Aylmer, a resi-i dent of Melbourne, still hale and hearty, ! is the seventh Baron of Balrath in the peerage of Ireland, having come to this country when his predecessor, Lord j Aylmer, was Governor of Canada.He I has resided in Canada ever since, and I taken a prominent part in agriculture and ! in the progress of the country.Lord Aylmer has also been a leading militia ! otiicer, having organized and commanded the 54th Battalion and was also an officer in the Rebellion of His eldest son the Hon.Matthew Aylmer is Assistant Adjutant General of Militia at Ottawa, and would be appointed in the place of Colonel Powell, Ad jutant General, lately superannuated, but for his political connections.The Liberal candidate for Sherbrooke, Hon.Henry Aylmer, is the second son of Lord Aylmer, and was born in Melbourne, P.O., in He was educated at the High School, Montreal, then at the Royal Naval College, Portsmouth, England, after which he served lli years on hej Majesty’s regular army.He retired on half pay in 1870 and came to Canada fur which he had always had a great atiection, wishing to spend the remainder of his life in his native country.In 1874 he defeated the late Hon.\V.11.Webb, who for upwards of 20 years had been the representative of Richmond and Wolfe.He was unseated but immediately re-elected, defeating Col.Hanning.In 1878 he again stood for the Federal Parliament and was defeated by Mr.Ives on the National Policy cry.In 1802, he contested unsuccessfully the County of Richmond for the Local House with Mr.Bedard- In 1870 he organized the Richmond Field Battery of Artillery and commanded it with great credit to the country until , that is presented to his senses.He is | recently he was compelled by jswr health 1880 and has practised at Richmond ever since, having achieved marked distinction I u the prof eaanm, and being at present 1 the Attorney of the Eastern Townahi|ia Bank at Richmond.He was also the | Town Attorney for a number of years | until he recently gave up the position.| At the Liberal Convention, held at Dan- ' ville on the liith inat., he was appointed ' President of the Liberal Association for the united counties of Richmond and ! Wolfe, and w ts taking a very earnest in- ! terest in the contest on behalf of Mr.M.T.sStensou when it the earnest solicitation of the Libérais of Sherbrooke he accepted the candidature they offered.Tile name of Aylmer has, in these Eastern Townahipa, for a great many years, stood for everything that was straight, honest, and honorable, and it is not surprising that the Liberals are elated, and that the independent voters of Sherbrooke should be deeply gratified at the fortunate choioe.The contest will lie keen.Hon.Mr.Ives is marshalling his numerous forces to invest the costitueucy.Liberal Rally.There vt.i-a very succevwful I.literal meeting held on Tuesday night in Pelletier s Hall at which over sou electors were present.Mr.N.N.Walley piesided, and the motion that was put by him that the nomination of the Hon.Henry Aylmer be latitied was unanimously and enthusiastically received.Mr.li.A.I t Baron, uhohad been selected a-, candidate in Match, iSos, explained why he could not accept, and made an able speech.He said that in the Conservatives should have appealed to the country on their fiscal policy, but weie afraid to.Th held the reins of power until something should turn up.which did turn up in the shape of remedial legislation, upon which false issue they hoped to tide into power.Mr.Ives had always favored a self-aggrandizing policy that did not entitle him to the support of the people.A flagrant instance of this was the fact that in the last Parliament he had tried to i>ass a bill to have an export duty imposed on pulp wood, so as to force poor farmers to sell to him at low er prices at his mills in Kuslis, Angus and Cookshire.There were his interests, and not in the County of Sherbrooke, where there were only monuments of his egotism.Dr.Pelletier also made a capital speech in which he dwelt also u|>on the idea that Sir.Ives was not representing Sherbrooke but representing himself.'1 he Hon.Henry Aylmer was given a most enthusiastic reception when he rose to sj>cak.He avowed himself to be a supporter of the Hon.Wilfred Laurier, a Liberal of the purest English type.It was well to know w hat w as meant by being a Liberal of the English school ; it did not mean that a man was a rabid radical, that he is inclined to revolutionary methods, as falsely represented ; but it meant that a man w as broad-minded anil intended to do justice, to be fair, and do what is right.(Applause).In fact to do unto others as you would wish they should do unto you.He believed Mr.Laurier was just that sort of a man.He had known him for many years, and had sat in Parliament with him from 1874 to 1878 at the time when that honest, noble old statesman, Sir Alexander Mackenzie, wasJPremier of the country.That is the five years which the Conservative party are fond of pointing to as being a time not only of world-wide depression, but a time when the country suffered from the pretended misgovernment of the Liberal party.Mr.Ives and his friends would spend most-of their time talking of that jieriod instead of giving you an account of their stewardship.The whole burthen of their speeches consisted in abusing Mr.Laurier and Ins party and the administration of Mr.Mackenzie of 18 years ago.What the electors want to hear about is, what has been the conduct and what has been the administration of the gentlemen,now coining before l he country and again solliciting the suffrages of the people.In reviewing the financial policy of the Conservative administration, Mr.Aylmer made a striking contrast between the promises made in 1878 and their realization since.The then annual expenditure of 23 millions was going to be reduced by rigid economy, whereas in fact it has been increased to 38 millions; the North West was going to be opened up and filled with a teeming emigration and population of one million, whereas there are to-day lint 240.090.Sir Chas.Topper had promised the North West w >uld produce w heat at the rate of 60 bushels to the acre and have an annual output of 640 million bushels, whereas the output last year was only 18 millions, about 620 millions of a difference.Sir Leonard Tilley had promised that the public deDt of 140 millions would be reduced to 100 millions and theC.l*.Ry.built besides, whereas that debt has been increased to 255 millions.Sir John Macnonald promised a home market to farmers at their own doors and made other glittering predictions, but the fanners now find they were basely deceived ; the workmen were to be put into a position to demand their own prices for labor, but they liave been obliged to emigrate to tin- United States to find employment, and thus help to build up a foreign nation.Mr.Aylmer showed up the flagiant injustict to the poorer classes of the coal tax, the rite tax, and went into interesting and conclusive details on these and many oilier points of financial policy in a spirit of moderation and tolerance.He dwell on the fact that the Conservatives in Sherbrooke as elsewhere were ignoring the fiscal issues and entirely refrained from explaining, as the people had a right to expect, the extraordinary c induct of the admini>iration during their term of office He ably reviewed the financial situation Referring to the school question, he said the Government had shown their insincerity hi its treatment, and their desire to make political capital out of it instead of facing the country on their fiscal policy.He said their school policy was a mere pretense to enable them to say to Quebec “See what we have dene for Manitoba Callutlii s," and go to Ontario and say “We have passed an order and trumped up a bill but it does not mean anything, you know.\Ve never intended to put it into force; all we intended was to satisfy the Catholics.'’ It was evident that they had deliberately premeditated and designed that this matter should not be settled.The disgraceful conduct of the Government in January forced him to that conclusion, since there was not suffi cient time, as they well knew, to pass a serious measure after the best discussion, that should he an efficacious remedy, which when placed on the statute book, would he satisfying and workable.Mi.Ives was flagrantly insincere in his advocacy of the miserable policy in the present campaign, and his asserted confidence lhat it will be carried out in Parliament in view of the attitude Ontario candidates have pledged themselves to.Mr.Aylmer would adhere to Mr.Laurier’s policy of conciliation .With Mr.Mowat s co-operation he had the utmost confidence there would be a satisfactory settlement.He stated that if th< Manitoba Government refused to so amicably settle the question he would not hesitate, but would heartily support Mi Laurier in passing a remedial bill that would be effective and give to the minority their just rights.This was simply British fair play, British justice ; and he did not think there was a right thinking Protestant in Sherbrooke who is not perfectly willing and does not wish «hat the minority should have their just rights just as the Protestants insist on having their just rights.'I he announcement of his policy on this question was receixed with enthusiastic manifestations of concur- fotes.Mes-,1 nade hi s.Jules R illiunt speech» iceting of tin hard , es, wh Lib id J.11 this Br.first I Ins ednesday e least .She se fw cply into ampaign Liberal mee I.The people sted lhat some 400ga Vtli ;h wa : spec Ihe eli Me h.:ctors Lei ¦ :ral time was forced t< ress them on ged ovath newed in the ;

was troubled with liver complaint and dyspepsia.At times my liver was so tender I could not hear it pressed or touched from the outside.Had tried a great many remedies without any benefit.Was compelled to drop my work, and, being worse than usual, I decided as a final resort to try South American Nervine, which had been recommended to me by friends who had been cured by it.I got a bottle from A.S.Goodeve, local druggist, and commenced taking according to directions Before 1 had taken half a bottle I was able to go to work again, and 1 have improved steadily since.I can conscientiously recommend South American Nervine to any suffering from dyspepsia, or liver complaint.” This is Mr.Reid’s story as he tells it in his own words.Were it thoroughly necessary it could lie corroborated by a host of witnesses.Mr.Reid h*s lived a long time in Chesley, and his case was known to lie a very l>ad one.But that makes no difference to Nervine.This great discovery rises equal to the most trying occasions.Let it be indigestion, the most chronic liver trouble, as with Mr.Reid, nervous prostration, that makes life miserable with so many, or sick headaches, that sap all the effort out of man or woman.Nervine measures to the necessities of the case.It is a great medicine and thousands to-day in Canada are happier and healthier men and women l>ecause of its discovery.Sold by W.H.Griffith.i «1 Canada is now in the throes of a "general election, to !>e fought mainly on the ques tiou of denominational education m Manitoba.The following article from the |»eii of an English journal wÀo has been studying Canadian political ques lions in the princi|»al cities of the Domin- | ioil has accordingly a special and peculiar ! interest : — “Aside from any issue raised by the | .Manitoba school question, it will fie an excellent thing for Canada if the Conservatives are defeated at the appsoadiing elections for the Dominion*Parliament.The Conservatives have been in office too long.As an inevitable consequence, Canada is suffering from the ills attendant uiHiii too long and too exclusive pf the constituencies of the province of Quebec and Ontario.They have secured in their own hands the appoint ment of the officers who compile the voting lists, and also the appointment of the returning-officers.Nearly all these men are of their own party, and so flu grant is the partisanship of some of the registration officers that it is on record that one of them took the platform in behalf of the Government candidate in the constituency in which he had made up the voters’ list.The voters’ lists are made up when it suits the convenience of the Government.Sometimes the lists are two or three years old.“The manufacturers w ho are protected under the high tariff contribute largely to the Conservative election funds and finance Conservative newspapers.Government contractors are levied upon for election campaign funds.The constituencies are bribed by the building of railways, custom houses, and post-offices; and nowhere in tho English-speaking world has the Government press been more coddled and nursed than in Canada.Numerous party journalists have been appointed to the Civil Service as rewards for their work in the interest of the Conservative party, and during tho long regime of the Conservative Government, a score or more of CONHERV ATIVK NKWSI’A 1'KRS HAVE I'.EEN BRIBED by means of public printing and advertising, principally for the Government railways and the Immigration Department.“The Immigration Department spends on an average £40,000 a year.It has agents all over Europe, A fair proportion of the £40,000 goes in printer’s ink ; and in subventions in one form or another to journalists and writers.Last year two women journalists from Dundee were in this country to describe its resources for the information of Scotch farm lalxirers.In the Auditor General’s accounts recently issued, it is shown that their travelling expenses in Canada were paid by tho Dominion Government.Even the washing hills of these two young ladies were charged against the Immigration Department Last year also a well-known lecturer of the latt! lamented Imperial Federation League wrote a hook in praise of the Great Dominion.It was published in England.In the Auditor General’s report there is an item of £100, a grant towards the cost of placing this hook before English readers.It was also charged against the Immigration Department.The real value of a book which needed so large a subsidy is easily guaged.“The Liberals have a moderately conceived and a workable programme.Their princpal demand is for an abandonment of the high protective tariff, which has existed since 1878, and which {if it has not utterly failed of its objects, has certainly not increased the fiopulation of the Dominion, or added to its material wealth.The peculiar financial system of Canada, its costly form of Government, its enormous debt, and the dislike of people in a new country to direct taxation render it impossible for Canada to adopt free trade.There must be a tariff on imports.The Lifterais, however, demand that the tariff shall be for revenue only and not for protection.I’p to 187Î* there was a tariff for revenue which averaged seventeen-and-a-half per cent.If the liberals are retrrned it is hardly likely that the existing tariff, which averages thirty-five per cent., can be brought down to the level of 1878.“(>ttawa.P,” U J G H -N C V.TH k^HILOHS BraKJu U RE It u sold on » rmmmteo 1 giatA.It cures incipient C___ sud is the best Cough and Croup < For sale bv W.H.Qrilflih, J#ierbrooke.Scientific American Agency for _ CAVIAT», ii _ trade mark*.Design patents, COPYRIGHTS, «to.K- t Information and frtM* liuntllionlc write to MI NN & CO Ü61 Broadway, N*w York.OMetit luitvau for aectirlnff putontH In America.Kvery patent taken out by u* I* brointlit before tin* public by a uotico given five of charge lu Urn J'dcutific J jirvest circulation of nnr #«ntlflc paper In the world, splendidly Illustrated.No Intelligent «fan Khnuld lie without It.Weeklv, A.TOOa year; $1.V) nix inontha.Addrewi, MT7NN A CO., VuBLLbtiRUa, 3tl t Broadway, Now York City, • • • • • • • Iff ” MENTHOL PLASTER I Imre pTewriW M«nth:>l Plaatar Ina nnmlwr of < a-M a of nmiralglr sud rheumatic imins, and am very nun li pleam-d with the ••iTccta and plnasantlieas of its application.—W.11.CA&PKN* il u.M !>.Hotel Oxford, Boston.I hayn iimhI Menthol Plasters In srTeral rasps of iiniaruhtr rheiimatlMii.mul flml in every rass th it it Kavoaluiost instant ami peniianoM rniief.—J.IV Moork M 1* .Washington, Im\ It Cures Kcttttlea, Lumbago, Neu-raluia, I'uIiih in ItMck or Side, or any MiiNculur I'hIiin.Darla A Lawtanea Co«t LI4» ”3c.j Stile Proprietors, Montreal.• •••••• T Constipation, ^biliousness, -V DYSPEPSIA,^) Sick Headache.REGULATE THE LIVER ONE PILL AFTER ELATING INSURES GOOD DIGESTION.PRICE 25 CTS.T« DODD’S med^ltd 1 Wt™'/Vr "is G CERTAIN < PAIN-ftlLLER ?it PAIN-KILLER THE GREAT Family Medicine of the Age.Taken Internally, It Cures Diarrhoea, Cramp, and Pain in Stomach, Sore Throat, Sudden Coughs, etc., etc.Used Externally, It Cures Cuts, Bruises, Burns, Scalds, Sprains, Toothache, Pain in the Face, Neuralgia, Bhcumatism, Frosted Feet.Noartfelr* ever attaint i»/»u(eA.Nothing has yet inrpaased tho Pain-Killer, which Is the most valuable family medicine now in use.—2Vnnrise# Or^'in.It haa real merit , as a montm of removing pain, no modh inn haa acquired i reputation equal to Perry bavia* Pain Killer —.Wtrporf Srtrs.Beware of Imitations I’.uy only the genuine "PKUKV DAVia."
