state of cultivation with the exception of has declined to declare it a breach of its privi- loges for a returning officer to elect & member of parliament in defiance of the will of the electors, The position taken by the govern-' ment and \u201cy Mr Baird, the person who by vir-| tue of Mr Dunn sits in the house of commons as the representative of the people who at the poils refused to accept his services in that character, was not a manly or an honorable one.Two facts have been made plain by the public inquiry that has taken place in reference to this Queen's County election case.The firat is that Mr Dunn, as the returning officer, accepted | Mr King's deposit even if it was not tendered to him by the proper person, and declared him a duly nominated candidate.The second is that Mr King received a decided majority of the votes cast, and that in spite of this Me! Dann declared the defeated candidate elected.If this is not a breach of privilege, and a serious blow to the independence of parliament, what is 7 Mr Baird, of course, offered to resign (if the house saw fit, and fight the contest over ; again, but the majority in the house, apparent- kA thinking itself dangerously weak without the support of a man of so many resources, refused to interfere, and left the matter to the courts, As Mr Baird has noright to resign a seat to which he was not elected, but as the! , courts can only be called upon to see that jus-! tice be done at a heavy expense to the elected | member for Queen's county, this is simply add- | ing insult to injury,\u201d The Toronto Mail is no \u2018less clear on the nubject.Speaking of Dunn, | | the returning-officer.it says: Few right think- 'ing persons have any sympathy for him.The ; Jaw guiding him in the performance of his duty { was clear and precise enough, It was his place, tif à person not properly qualified presented , himself as & candidate, to decline to aocept his nomination.When, however, he had accepted à nomination, the question of qualification was | out of bis hands; and all he had to do was to | declare the choice of the people elected.Io- stead of obeerving this simple rule, Mr Duan | proceeded after the election to declare that the candidate who had been elected had really, owing to the informality in the putting up of his deposit, been disqualitied from the first ; and returned the minority candidate.Referring to the Salvation Army in Quebec city which is composed of young women

will close by the 25th is certain.Mr Blake's absence has disorganized the opposition and the government bas it pretty much its own way.Tho session has been the quietest and least interesting since Confederation.Tae Imperial parliament reassembed, after the Whitsuntide holidays, on Tuesday, when the government intimated it would uso the cloture to pass the crimes\u2019 bill if tho Parnollites persisted in continuicz their obstructionist tactics.Intimation was also given, that every assistance woald be afforded the courts in Ireland to carry out the law.This may be needed on a large scale, for the evictions on the Bodyke estate threaten to bring the contest between landlords and tenants to a crisis.The owner of Body ke has beon unable for years to collect his ronts and bas lived by borrowing money, and it is his creditors who are evicting the present tenants in tbe hope that they will bo able to tent the land to those who will pay for its use.The scenes are painful in the extremo and the bailiffs use unnecessary harghness, yet it is apparent tho whole social fabric would lapse into disorder if those tenants were allowed to have their way in relusing to pay the roots

a home rule, or, plainly speaking, a Fenian meeting at Malone on the 30th, when the Hon Mr Gilbert talked learnedly of feudal- | ism, Mr McClary told how he would govern Ireland, the Hon W.P, Cantwell abused the! rule of the country under which his father | made his money, and the Hon S.A.Beman praised the boycotters and denounced landlords.Remarkable to say, the British empire has survived this terrible assault and Lord Salisbury | has not abated one jot his intention to pass the act to compel the lawless in Ireland to obey the law and pay their debts.For the patriots who | are fleeing from British tyranny and now landing by the thousand at New York we should say Malone is à good place.Mr Cantwell will lend them money for 999 years without interest, Mr Bewan will give them houses without reat, and should any of them prod a baker or al butcher who wants settlement of his account, Mr Gilbert will secure his acquittal on the ground of his early feudal surroundings.THE consideration of

of but ose opinion, and that is, that à more favorable time for the growth of grass and grain than the last ten days have been, has not been experienced in this part of the country fur snany years past.The grass of the meadows upon ridges and generally apon ground on the surface of which ice did not form last winter, is inost luxuriant.From such meadows it is reasonably certain that a good crop of hay will be secured this year.The meadows in the valley of the Norton creek and the little Montreal river, have been very badly injured.They are in a worso condition even than they were a twelvemonth since, and they yielded only half an average crop last season.This state of things will cause serious loss to some of our farmers who depend for part, at least, of their winter's supply of forage, upon the produce of such \u2018meadows, Mr Roberts made his first shipment of cheese for the season about ten days ago.Ilo had not, when your correspondent last saw him, obtained returns from its sale.The deliveries of milk at his factories are still increasing.Should there be no improvement in the present very unsatisfuctory condition of the butter- market soon, the supply of milk to the cheese factories in this neighborhood will be large enough, in all probability, to employ their full capacity.The demand for butter here at present is very limited.The storekeepers in the village are paying from 13 to 17¢ in trade, and they are not eager buyers even at those prices.They would much prefer to buy eggs at 12¢ per dozen.The Messrs Latham and Mr Thomas Orr shipped about 100 calves and a few sheep and lambs from this station to Montreal last market day.The calf trade is absut over for the season probably.The Rev Mr Robertson commenced his summer evening services for the season in the village church last Sabbath.He proposes to deliver at then a course of lec ures (thirteen in number) on the cities of the Bible.Thuse who know the rev.gentleman's ability to handle such topics intelligently and in a manner to make his discourses upon them excecdingly | interesting, anticipate a great treat in hearing them.The first lecture of the course, on Enoch, the first city, was listened to Inst evening by a good audience, with great pleasure and profit.Mr Robertson brought the services, which he has been holding on Sabbath evenings in Rox- ham, during the last few months, to a close about a fortnight ago.The attendance at these their close, when roads and weather were favorable, the building in which they were held was filled to its utinost capacity.The good people of

of Rockburn, He has drifted away to Walla Walla, Washington Territory, where he has been admitted to the practice of law, When the grist-mill was destroyed by fire last September, Mrs Henderson and her son Francis G., who had managed the business, resolved, in renewing it, to adopt the latest improvements, and give the farmers a mili that would have no superior.It was decided, of course, to adupt the roller-systein, but there are many forms of it, and alter enquiry, tho machines made by the G.T.Smith Middlings Purificr Company of Stratford, Out, were selected.The titting of them up was entrusted to Thomas Pringle of Montreal, who has had a statf of willwrights at work, under the direction of Juhn Rennie, for the past seven months.Last week the mill was started and is now in full operation.The roller-system has been de- seribed more than once in these columns and the principle is generally understood.Stones are discarded and the wheat, instead of being ground, is gently stripped of the several layers of which it is composed by passing between a succession of rollers.Under the old system the grain is violently crushed and bicomes slightly heated from the pressure and friction between the stones.In the roller process it is kept perfectly cool and the reduction to flour is of the nature of cracking instead of grinding, with the result that, examined under a glass, the particles of flour made by the voller- process are seen to bo of natural and uniform retention of the gluten ia its norinal condition, while those turued out by the stones are seen t be more or less cut and bruised.This is not the only change in the systein adopted at the Huntingdon mill, for the machinery to clean the wheat and bolt the flour is nearly as novel as the rollers themselves.First the wheat passes through a machine which takes out all the larger dirt, including eockle and wildp:a ; then passes into a wheat scourer, which removes what the cockle-machine failed to throw \u2018out, and thirdly to a wheat-brushor, which cleanses the pickles themselves, and it is sur- sideration.1st, that the avenue afforded by this district of connection between the West and Montreal is of so great value that the two, leading railway corporations fight over its possession, yet it was surrendered by its inhabitants without adequate consideration; 2ad, that the Canadian Pacific no longer controls the cabinet, five ministers having voted against its bill ; 3rd, that the Champlain Junction railway is not paying.The gentlemen who have been telling us that it is the best-paying branch the Grand Trunk has, will have to reconcile their statement with Mr Wainwright's declara- | tion that, but for the Grand Trunk's aid, it would be a defaulter on the interest of its bonds.It is to the advantage of all concerned that the road be made a paying one, and the Grand Trunk can do so by making it a through line and more energetically developing its local traffic.Ina few instances, its best customers are the worst accommodated.There is no reason why the line should not be fairly profitable.toits owners.TRE3 ST SACREMENT COUNCIL.THiS council met on Monday; all the
