When Sir Leonard Tilley\nproduced the great N. P., tie\nvooistw and opponent*of-H\noat\u00C2\u00BB i>to wd'ct tiffin-\"!\ndearly defined and understood by\nthose at least who have the habit of\ninforming themselves upon trade\nquestions, the two political parties went to the polls with this\nissue, and the N. F. was adopted by\nu deliberate national vote. Reformers, who contended for a revenue tariff (that is, a tariff just high\nenough to supply the required revenue of the country), assert that\ntho N. P. is a fraud and a delusion,\nund that it lias failed in accomplishing tho purposo for which it was\nframed. It, has certainly brought\na large revenue into the treasury, so\nlarge that tbe government has been\ncontinually burdened with a surplus. But it is beyond question\nthat the popularity of the N. P. is\ngrowing less. When it was first\npresented to the people of Canada,\ntbe country was-Buffering under a\nperiod of great financial depression.\nOrope had been unsatisfactory, money\n- was acaroe, and prices of produce\nruled low. - The people were open\nfor any scheme which promised botter times. The N. P. promised\nthis, and was accepted as a probable\nremedy for tho evils whioh bore bo\nheavily on the nation. There has\nbeen a period of comparative prosperity. During the past five or six\nyears Canada- has been making substantial advancement aud accumulating wealth. Her manufacturing\nindustries, or at least some of thom,\nhave experienced the stiuiuUting\neffects of a protective tariff. But\nas there cannot be two hills without\na valley between, bo it seems we\ncannot have prosperous periods without periods of depression intervening. The stimulus given by the\nN. P. to many industries has puBhed\nthem forward beyond the sphere of\nlegitimate development Canada, at\nbest, has b'it a limited market, and\nhostile tariffs set up a barrier against\ninternational trade. The manufacturing boom resulted, as somo people predicted it would, iu a certain\nmeasure of collapse. Markets became glutted. Tbe supply was\ngreater thau the demand, Mills began to shut down, or to run on short\ntime. Employees were thrown out\nof work. Money markets became\ntight, and financial disaster overtook\nthose who had ventured beyond\ntheir depth. The remedy worked\nadmirably where tho disease did not\nexist, A remedy for commercial\ndepression could scarcely receive an\nhonest trial where depression did\nnot prevail. People now begin to\nsuspect that the N. P., as a recipe\ntor perpetual prosperity, is not what\nhns been claimed fer it. Taxes are\nfound to be pressing upon the nation\njust at a time when it feels itself unprepared to meet them. The theory\nof protection has not by any means\nbeen proved sound by the experience of the N. P., and Canadians\nare beginning to look about for some\n' means of relief from high taxes\nwhile the high revenue has tailed.\nAt the critical moment somebody\nsuggests reciprocity, If reciprocity\nis seoured upon a fair basis, we believe it will bring to the country a\nmore permanent benefit than has\ncome from the N. P. The United\nStates are our natural allies. The\npeople of that nation speak the\nsame language and cherish the same\ntraditions as the people of Canada.\nTheir laws and institutions are similar to ours, and in social customs\nthere is no appreciable difference.\nThe two countries are divided by\nconventional lines which cannot separate the two peoples. But tho\nUnited States are strong in finance\nund tr -le, while we ure comparatively weak in both. It will be for\nthose to whose hands are committed\nthe responsibility of negotiating a\nleeiprooity treaty to aee that our\nInferior position is not taken advantage of by the stronger power.\nLooking at the,natural resources of\nthe two countries, one must arrive\nat tho .conclusion..that both would\nbe vastly aaiisted in nutters ot trade\nNEW WESTMINSTER, R OJ, WEDNESDAY, JULY 9, 1884.\nNUMBER 2\nit tbey existed under ont govern\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 ft ;mi#miMlN\u00C2\u00BBm->fr>-\nduced in the United Sulfa which\ncannot be economicdt** produced in\nbanada; and we have tome products\nwhich do not exist south of tM\nboundary, Betides, the Wliirel re.\nsources are distributed onanuully in\nboth countries.

A herd of about six or\neight hundred had got frightened at\nsomething, and broke away poll mall\nwith tbeir: tails in the air and thi\nbulls'at the head of the procession.\nBut.Mr. Oowboy didn't get excited at\nall when he taw the herd \u00C2\u00BBaa going\nfor a straight bluff, where they would\ncertainly tumble down into the canyon and be killed.\n\"You know that when a hard like\nthat gets to going, they can't Mop, ho\nmatter whether they ruth to death or\nnot: I Thete in tht rear orowd thou\nahead, and away they go. I wouldn't\nhave given a dollar t head for the\nherd; but the cowboy spurred up hi.\nmustang, made a little detour, came\nright in front of the herd, cut acros.\ntheir path at a right angle, and than\ngalloped leisurely on to the edged\nthat bluff; halted, and looked around\ntt thtt wild inaai of. beef coming right\nMatt] him. He waa cool a. a cucumber, though I expected to aee him\nkilled, and'I was so excited I could\nnot apeak. I I-\nwell, when the lesdert had got\nwithin about a quarter of a mile of\nhim, I saw them try tu alack up,\nthough they could not do it very\nquick. But the whole herd seemed to\nwant to atop, and then the cowt tnd\nsteer, in the rear got about whtreth.\ncowboy had cut acros. their path, I\nwu surprised to see them stop tnd\ncommence to nibble tt the grass. Then\nthe whole herd stopped, wheeled,\nttrsejltd back, and went to fighting\nfM- a chance to' eat where the rear:\nguard was.\n\"Vou ate, thtt cowboy had opened\na big bag of salt be had brought out\nfrom tho ranch to give the cattle, galloped across the hard's course, and\nemptied tho bag. Every critter sniffed\nthat line of salt, and, of courae, that\nbroke up the stampede. Bill I tall\nyou it wit a queor tight to aw thtt\nman out there on the edge of'that\nbluff quietly rolling a cigarette, when\nit seemed aa though he'd beeu lying\nunder 200 tent of beef in about a\nminute and t half.\"\nI t. .

Qimrautine regulations\nare very strict, but cholera cannot\nbe shut up within such enclosures.\nShould it find its way to Germany\nand Britain, no one can predict\nwhere it moy stop. Already hundreds of persons are fleeing from Iho\ninfected districts, and some of these,\nwill bo sine to carry with thein the\ngerms of diseuse to propagate lu\nother spheres. It mny be loug before the scourge will reach this continent, but the utmost vigilance\nSllO'lId lm av9.-ot.ed ovorywhere tn\nkeep out the plague. To this end it\nis of great importance thnt quarantine arrangements in this province\nahould be perfected. We have late\nly bad aome experience which Bhould\nnot be thrown awny. The Dunlin\nion government cannot with impunity shut ita eyes lo tbe new danger which, threatens, us. There is uo\ntime to be lost.\niB-HgniBl Passengers.\nBefore leaving ship the quarantined passengers on board the str.\nMexico passed a serins of resolutions\nof' which these are a few:\nResolved, that we, the passengers of\nthe steamship Mexico,, lament and de-\nplone, tl|. utter ignorance oJ Dr.. Wm.\nKcknn, who, a. [health oBcer of Viotoria, B. ft, after finding no sickness\naboard our vessel, and ignoring the clean\nMil of health exhibited by the captain\n{nm the custom house officer at'Han\nImao'sco, Cal, ordered u. to remain\nojiarau'toed *o\u00C2\u00BB sixteen days\u00E2\u0080\u0094failing to\nVisit u. tke entire time, barring the\nsecond day of our arrival. Be it further.'\nResolved, that we condemn the heart-\nlessA-M that permitted tons and tons of\nfreight to he landed, and denied us the\nprivilege of sending postal nutter to\nanxious relations and mends.\n\u00E2\u0096\u00A0\u00E2\u0080\u00A2.: Also, that we chargo him with gross\nneglect of duty, in failing to visit onr\nship, after being repeatedly sent foi by\na quarantine officer aboard.\nAhn, in failing to vaccinate the fifteen little children aboard the ship, or\nin taking any measure whatever to prevent the spread ofsthe loathsome disease which, he claimed would, develop.\nTbe circumstances in which these\npersons found themselves were certainly not such as to promote good\nhumor, but we are Inclined to\ntliiuk these resolutions were scarcely\nwarranted by tho facts. It may be\ntrue that the Mexico showed a\nclean bill of health from San Franoisco. At the time of leaving that\nport it was not known that any of\nher passengers were infected, or\nthat there bad been smallpox on the\nTokio, from which she took a number of Chinese. Aa soon aa the dis-\ncov'i'y had been made, the fact was\ntelegraphed to Victoria, and we do\nI not very well aee how, under the\ncircumstances, Dr. Jackson could\nhave permitted the passengers to\nland. With respect to the charges\nof carelessness and neglect we know\nnothing. If the representations of\nthe passengers, are correct, it. lpoks\nas if. he had failed in his duty in\nthis respect. Posaibjy these repre,\ndentations may have been somewhat\nexaggerated, however.\nAnother Tltue Tab|e.\nFrom a notice published in our\nadvertising columns, it will be seen\nthat the C. P. N. Co. proposes to\nmake another change in the time\ntable of the up-river steamers. Fat-\nmany years these steamers have\nbeen leaving this city every Wednesday and Saturday morning. It\nis now proposed to leave on Tuesday\ninatetd of Wednesday. This change\nbrings us back to a worse condition\nthan ever. The tendency of communication in a progressive country\nBhould be. towards advancement,\nThe step proposed is one of retro-\ngieaaion. Last summer nnd the\nHummer before we had four steamers\nn week between here and Yale; now\nwe have two ateamere, and it is pre.\nposed so to divide the week that two\ndaya shall go to on* trip and four to\nthe other. The C. F. N. people affirm that tbe change is contemplated\nat the suggestion of the post-office\ninspector. If this he true, the in\nspector is meddling with matters\nwhich he utterly1 fails to comprehend. The mail subsidy between\nthis city and Yale was given not\nonly to geoure a regular mail service for tha lower Fraser, hut to ensure also regular and adequate transportation. Both theae objects have\nbeen fairly accomplished by the past\n/tervios; neither of them ;*wtt be at.\ntained by the new scheme proposed\nby the inspector. There will bo a\nmail leaving thii eity on Tuesday\nmorning, conveying ttwi material\naccumulated on Saturday and Monday, wliil*for S\u00C2\u00BB.urd\u00C2\u00BB*'* mi.il than\nwill lie an accumulation of four\ndays' material. Instead of dividing\nthe week by tlie middle, aa.has been\ndone, it is to be divided into sections\nof If aiid \u00C2\u00A7, and tbe well-established\nusages of trade, are to be 'disorganized, because the inspector fancies a\nchange! Havo the people of tlio\nFraser valley no rights in this matter'! Before venturing 'to meddle\nwith this matter, surely common\ncouitesy would have suggested to\nthe inspector the propriety of consulting the representative' of the\ndistrict most seiiously affected by\nthe. change. But ho has not done\nso; neither has lie consulted tbe\nboard of trade, nor the people. In\nthe name of this city und district\nwe protest against the proposed\nchange, because it affords fewer\nfacilities than the arrangement now\nin existence\u00E2\u0080\u0094and that is no better\nthan it should be.\nAbout Prohibition.\nAlthough no practical attempt lias\nevef- been made to apply the Scott\nAct to the restriction of the liquor\ntraffio in this province, it has been\nadopted by a' sreat many eastern\ncounties. At tbo present time there\nare nearly a dozen counties in Ontario, where arrangements have been\nmade to take a vote on this bill during the summer, and the contest's\ngoing on most vigorously. In order\nto 'give a fair and impartial statement as to the effects of the Scott\nAct, the Toronto Globe some months\nago sent a special commissioner to\nthe eastern provinces. The letters\nof thia commissioner havu been of\ngreat interest, and contain tbe results of a careful and extensive personal enquiry. The Globe of the\n24th ult. contains the commissioner's final letter, in which he sums\nup the whole matter. He finds that\nthe temperance sentiment in eastern\nCanada is very far in advance of\nthat of the west; that although\nthere is a good deal of drinking\ndone in towns und cities where the\nScott Act hus been carried, yet it is\na great deal less than before the\npassage of the act; that in rural\ndistricts the Scott Act has virtually\nstopped the liquor traffic and the\ndrinking customs. In towns, where\ndrinking continues contrary to law,\nit is curried on in such a way and\nin such places as to make it disreputable. Of Sackville, where he\nfound a great deal of drinking, the\ncommissioner says: \"Bar room drinking, the social feature of the traffic,\nhas been wholly suppressed) and\nthereby the most potent agenoy in\n(he manufacture of drunkards removed; for after all the great curse\nand danger of the liquor traffic is\nthe social treating of the publio barroom. The places in Sackville\nwhere liquor can be obtained are bo\nutterly degraded in look, character,\nand method that the young men of\nthe community will not visit them,\nand their very existence serves more\nthan anything else to make drinking repulsive and to confirm the\npeople in their allegiance to prohibitory iegislation. In Sackville, then,\nit is only a few of the- more do-\ngraded products of the license system who connive at the violation\nof the law. In Kings, in Frederic-\nton, in Digby, in every constituency\nwhere the interference of-thp. law,\nhas not disabled the Act, the same\nresults are the outcome of it&operar\nHon,\" The commissioner! further\nasserts, from .statistics of trade, that\nthere has beet) a, great decrease in\nthe consumption of intoxicating\nliquors wliere the Scott Act has been\nadopted. \"The greut bulk of the\ntestimony,\" he says, \"I found agreed\nin the admission that in the rural\nsections drinking liad almost absolutely ceased.\" He gives testimony\non another point which is of considerable importance. There seems to\nbe an opinion, especially in this\nprovince, that a hotel cannot be kept\nwithout tbe adjunct of a bar. The\nGlobe commissioner says: \"The character of the hotel accommodation\nin these provinces has not heen degraded by the operation of the Scott\nAot, and in those Nova Scotian\ncounties in which no licenses have\nbeen issued for years, ns good and\naa cheap public accommodation' is\nprovided as will be found in any\nsection of Ontario. The prosperity\nof the towns has not been adversely'\naffected. Real estate lias not de >\ncreased in value and there is no contention that the burden of taxation'\nhas been made heavier by tbe loss\nof license revenue.\" It is not many\ndays since one of tlie saloon keepers in this oity made an attempt to\npersuade the public that hia business was one of the greatest helps\nto general trade. All enquiry into\nthe practical working of the prohibition movement is against this\nabsurd theory. It is advanced by\nnelsons whose.\"craft is ih danger,\"\nand who care very little- for the\nmoral or material advancement of\nthe nation.\nBeautiful photographic panora\nview, in British Columbia, 76 eta,\ns\u00C2\u00ABt at T.R.

ORB\nwas the first to reply a the address.\nIn a few happy and < xtremely well\nchosen words he thawed the reeve,\nthe members of the municipal council,\nand the people of Langley, for the kind\ninvitation to their pic*ijic and the address just read. He nid it afforded\nhim great happiness aid the highest\npleasure to be afforded this opportunity of meeting and iiinglirtg in a\nBocial way with ao mapy of his constituents and especially with so largo\nand important a section if them as the\npeople of the municipality of Langley.-\nSince tbis was an ocoasloi of social intercourse and enjoyment he felt it\nwonld be very improper for him to in-\ndulgo in a long speech nnd he had\ntherefore made up his mind - before\ncoming here to refer as little as possible\nto politics. He would however take\noccasion to say that ho felt very great\ndissatisfaction at the non-f ulfilmeut of\ntheir obligations by the Dominion\nGovernment under tho Settlement Bill.\nHo referred particularly to their failure\nso far to carry out their promise made\nnot long ago to have aAorder made in\ncouncil regulating the tenure of the\npublio lands. This was a great and\ncrying grievance and he hoped the\nprovinoial government would put forth\nevery effort to bring the Dominion\ngovernment to time. He very much\ndisapproved of the recent action of tha\nJ provincial government in reserving\nrom sale the publio land west of the\nPort Moody road. He strongly deprecated any restriction whatever on\nthe sale of the public lands. After a\nfew complimentary words to the ladies,\nMr. Orr concluded his speech by saying that. the government might always\ncount upon, nil hearty support in (tarrying nny measures they might adopt\ntending to advance the interests of the\nDistict of New Westminster.\nTHB HON. PROVINCIAL SECRETARY\nnext replied to the address.. On rising to apeak h\u00C2\u00AB waa received with loud\nand loug-oontinued applause. He expressed the gratification he felt at meeting with such a reoeptioii at the hands\nof so lnrge a number of his constituents. Next to tho approval of one's\nOwn conscience, sueh words of welcome and commendation constitute tho\nhighest, reward of the patriotio politician, proving aa tbey did that his\nservices were appreciated. In looking\nround upon the vast audience he could\nnot but be delighted with the evidences he saw of the rapid progress of\nsettlement in that part of thamjfaifi-\ncent district it waa hie honor and\npride to represent in the provincial\nparliament; for, although two years\nago he was familiar with almost every\nsettler, now every other face was new\nto him. He had reason to believe\nthat., folly fifty per cent, had been\nadded to the settled agricultural population of the district during the eighteen months the present government\nhad beeu in office; and he waa glad\nto know that, in the words of the address, those who have conn* aro ohiefly\na most desirable class of settlers. The\ngovernment of which he was a mem*\nBer was keenly alive to the importance of possessing a. prosperous and\ncontented yeomanry, and the settlers\nmight rely upon everything being\ndone tbat could be done, with tbe\nlimited revenue at their disposal, towards, supplying\nROADS AND SCHOOLS,\nwithout which prosperity or content*\nment was impossible. Referring to\nthe gross misrepresentation and scurrilous abuso indulged in by the opposition press of the province, he -remarked that while there oould be no\nobjection to legitimate opposition and\nfair criticism, it was neither honorable\nnor patriotio for publio journalists to\ndescend to the grossest misrepresentation and abuse with the object of embarrassing the government. Such a\ncourse was only calculated to drag politics down into the dirt, instead of elevating them, as should be the aim of\nevery good citizen of the country. No\none could condemn a proper desire for\noffice and power. Such aspirations\nwere laudable; but when despicable\nmeans were resorted to, it only warned\nthe people of the unfitness of those\nusing them. The hon. gentleman proceeded tu review the promises mado\nat the general election, and the policy\nof the government brought into ox-\nistenco by that election.\nTHE SETTLEMENT BILL\nwas n fair and honorable compromise\nbetween the province and the Dominion. Columbia might have continued\nto insist upon the full measure of what\nshe had been taught to claim as her\nduo; but, being the weaker against tho\nstronger, sho might have continued tn\ndemand in vain. The government hnd\napproached tho Dominion in a spirit of\nfairness and good faith, with an earnest desire to have all outstanding differences adjusted upon a.basis which,\n[bile bonelioial to Columbia, mi|*ht unt\n__ m..._~ --\u00E2\u0096\u00A0 wer(j-\nthe terms'of the settlement bill; and\nif that measure had not resulted in al!\nthe reasonably anticipated good to the\nprovince,-it waa because of unexpected\ndolay on the part of tho Dominion\ngovernment in giving effect to somo of\nits important provisions; but it wns\nobviously unfair to hlante the provincial government for that. Ho admitted, and he regretted to have to do an,\nthat unjustifiable delay 'had occurred\nin placing (he railway Imida properly\nin the market and in cortiuiemtiu-- dock\nconstruction at Esquimau; but he cuuld\nassure the [people tlmt the government\nof whieh he was a member had not, by\nsilence or inaction, consented to thnt\ndelay* .On th* contrary. the Dominion\ngovernment had beon importuned to\nfulfil its obligations in thee* as well as\nin other respects, and it would be\nfound that no effort on the part of tho\ntirovinoinl government had been spared\nn Order to souure a faithful and satisfactory carrying out of tlie provisions\nof the settlement bill, fle was glad to\nbe able to state that tlm latent **s\nfrom Ottawa justified the belief that\nNO riHTHBR UNNRCE8HARY DELAY\n.mi the part of tlie Dominion govern-\nanent was likely to occur in fulfilling\ntheir part of the terms of settlement.\nIt had been ohargod that the province\nliaii given everything and received\nNothing under tlmt measure. Now,\nwhat did the provinco give? Three a:id\nA half million acres of land in the\nPeaco river country, lying oast of tho\nRocky Mountains. But the province\ndid not surrender its territorial eover*\neignty over these acres. They remain\nas much aa ever an integral part of\nBritish Columbia; they are still ours\nthe same as any other lands in the\nprovince for all purposes of taxation,\nrevenue, und legislation. The only\nvaluable consideration the province\nsurrenders with respect to these lands\nis the amount that shall be recoived\nas the net profit arising from the sale,\nafter defraying the expense of surveying aud administering them\u00E2\u0080\u0094rather a\nproblematical advantage. But, as a\nset-off oven to that, these lands have\nbeen placed in hands able and likely\nto peoplo and make them revenue-\nproducing to thia province probably a\nquarter of a century earlier than would\nbe the case were they to wait till the\nprovincial government could successfully administer them; so that it may\nfairly be said that the province parted\nwith .no valuable consideration in respect of these distant arid inaccessible\nacres. But we gave away\nTHE GRAVING DOCK.\nYea, and received back every dollar\nimproperly squandered upon it, and\nsecured the. completion and operating\nof it hy the Dominion government\nwithout involving any charge upon the\nprovincial revenue. In transferring\nthe dock on these terms, Columbia was\nthe gainer, certainly in no senae tbo\nloser; and it was by this transaction,\nthis master-stroke, that the provincial\ngovernment have been enabled to expend so much more than their predecessors did upon uecessary and reproductive public works amongst you.\nThe opponents of the government have\na great deal to ssy about what the\nprovince gives Canada nnder the settlement bill, although it has just been\nshown that we really gave little or\nnothing, but they are silent ahout\nwhat we receive, or has been\nCONCEDED BY CANADA\nunder that measure. Let us glance\nfor a moment at thia feature of the\nbargain. Take the railway lands\nalone. Canada has within the railway\nbelt on this side of the Rooky Mountains about 11,600,000 acres, and there\nis good ground for asserting that it was\nin contemplation to exact an average\nprice of $5 an aero for these lands-\nthere having -been no restriction as to\nprifie and ino conditions as .to settlement imposed with respeot .to these\nlandB. But in* making a aattlement\nwith Canada the provincial government\nsucceeded -in. securing this enormous\nand most valuable concession, that\nactual settlers on these lands shall only\nbe required to ray one dollar an acre!\nTaking the! 11 million acres, this represents a gain to the province of $44,-\n000,000., To bring it nearer home,\none million harm of these lands are\nestimated to lie on tbe lower Fruer,\nand thus the settlers on these lands\nwill only have to pay one million dollars into the Dominion treasury instead\nof five millions. Ia it nothing to have\nsaved to the settlers of the lower\nFraser four millions? But you1 are\nimpatient to go to your sports, and I\nonly detain you to again thank you\nfor this\n| KIND WELCOME\nand to express the hope that you may\nhave similar gatherings in future years\nat which your representatives may\nmeet you. to receive your expressions\nof commendation or censure, according\naa their course may be pleauiu\notherwise; and I sincerely hope {hat\nwe shall be spared to meet ori\" many\nfuture occasions under as happy circumstances aa we meet to-day. It is\nright I should state that the premier\nwaa anxious to be bare to-day; but\nowing to the absence of the attorney-\nf;eneral it waa not possible for bim to\nsave. I am sorry he could not have\nbeen here in order to receive tho favorable impression respecting our district this gathering is sure to make.\nAfter the applause that followed the\nconclusion of the\" hon. gentleman's\nspeech had subsided\nSCR. CUNNINGHAM\nrose to reply to the address. He spoke\nas follows:\u00E2\u0080\u0094Mr. Reeve, gentlemen of\nthe municipal council of Langley, and\nladies and gentlemen. \u00E2\u0096\u00A0 Since you have\nso kindly associated my name both in\nthe invitation, to vour pic-nio and in\nyour address of welcome with my two\nhonorable friends here, I return you\nmy thanks. I nm proud to meet here\nto-day so many of the electors of the\ndistrict of New Westminster. I am,\nof course, not a representative of the\ndistrict, but I am of the oity of New\nWestminster (a voice, \"and the city is\nin the district\"). Yes the city is in\ntho district, ana I represent the city,\n(a laugh). Well, I am only a representative of two months. At the last\nelection the people of T-Tew Westminster thought I was a proper person to\nrepiesent them and they elected me.\nIt is truo I was onlv elected by a\nscratch (laughter), but I think it was a\nlarge scratch. I am not going to detain you with a speech. I am not a\npolitician. I don't mako my living by\npolitics and I don't intend to. I approve of all the acts of the presont\ngovernment. I believe they are pur*\nsuing\nA WISE POLICY\nand I will give them Xm hearty support. With regard to my honorablo\nfriend the Provincial Socivti-ry, whom\nthey oall \"Honest John\" (l\u00C2\u00BBud laugh-\nter)--well, thoy will myself \"Truthful\nJnmes\" {uproarious laugltior), mid in\nboth cases possibly thu t-piiheta msy\njh'nvi) bean appropriately; applied (iv-\nhowed laughter)--~r have watched liis\npolitical conduct with-\"criiiinyau^ 1\nam hnppy in being ttblo to nay t!,nt I\nsee no other mark in his political life\nhut honesty. I believe ho in putting\nforth his best ell-ms as a lending member of the present government for tho\nbest interests'and welfare of the whole\ncountry, and while I cau see nothing\nin all his conduct but what I heartily\napprove as being for the bost interests\nof the country, and while ho continues\nto dtt as he haa done, I will follow in\nhia foutateps and give him my hearty\nsupport. 1 believe the interests of tbe\ncity of New Westminster are to a certain extent the interests of the diatrlct,\nand we are not going to be idle in the\ncity of New Westminster. I expect\nways and means will be devised to\nbuild tho New Westminster and Port\nMoody Railway within the next six\nmonthe> But this is a festive occasion,\nand I shall uot detain you any longer,\nns I'see some young men impatient for\namusement. This ended the speech-\nmaking, and after giving threo cheers\nfor the ''representatives\" luncheon was\nnoxt in order; nnd after full justice had\nlieeh done to that important part of\nthe programme the\nHORSE RACING AND SPORTS\ncommenced, also dancing, which was\nkept up with great spirit during the\nremander of the afternoon. The days'\nfestivities wound up with an amusing\ntout race of 100 yards for a purse of\nmoney between four of the oldest and\nmost decrepid men in Langley. This\nwas a most amusing exhibition and\ncaused convulsions of merrimont. Four\npatriarchs entered for the race. Mr.\nGeorge Yorkson won handsomely, and\npoor old Hr. James Mackie waa last.\nAt 6 o'clook the pic-nic broke up and\njust as the Provincial Secretary took\nhis seat in the conveyance and waa\nabout starting to leave the ground the\npeople massed round the vehicle and\nJ ave three ringing cheers fur the Hon.\nuo. Robson. The Provincial Secretary in return asked three cheers and\na tiger for the generous people of\nLangley for their hospitality. A large\ncrowd followed the \"representatives\"\nto the steamboat landing and as they\nwent on board three ringing cheers\nwere given for each. J. 0.

But, few of these\nscores would have been intelligible,\neven to experts in chirography, and\nwhen to the original entries were added\ncredits on tho margins or across the\nface of the accounts or marginal notes\nor addenda to others, and to still\nothers, moral or religious reflections\non the part of the old man, an attempt\nto decipher them would have proved\nan almost hopeless task. Only one\nman could read those entries without\ndifficulty, and that man was the writer\nof thero, Job Henley, inn keoper\n\"Brown Bear Tavern,\" Northern Liberties, Philadelphia. (That is the way\nJob always gave his name, business,\nand address to the canvassers for the\nPhiladelphia Oity Directory.\nJob was of medium stature, plethoric of habit, and at most times rubicund of visage; but when moved by\ngreat grief or anger, his face assumed\n(he hue of faded mahogany, in which\ndrab tints had a place.\nyellowish .\nand the broad pimples of deep purple,\nbrought thero by a too generous diet,\ngave to it the appearance of of an artist's palette, with the colon set tor\nwork. But the mouth went far towards redeeming the otherwise unhandsome character of the face. The\nlipa, when in repose, were scarcely\nclosed, and were curved iu lines that\nindicated a natural kindness of heart,\nwhich his calling had entirely extin-\nJuished. The great difficulty that\nob's nature had to contend with was\nthat he lived in days when even the\nchurch recognized the business of rum-\nselling as respectable, and ministers,\nand deacons, and members would\ndrink together, aud sometimes get\ndrunk together. A time when it was\nconsidered a charity for the keeper of\na tavern or ale house, as they were\nthen called, to give back a trifle to his\nvictim's family. Now it ia considered,\nby most honest persons, dishonest to\nsell intoxicants, and rumselling is\nlooked on only aa a permission allowed\n* by a bad law. which time and a more\nintelligent and humanly educated age\nor generation will remove from the\nstatute books of all civilized countries.\nJob Henley's natural disposition\nmay be better understood by his entries of accounts and remarks in regard to them than by anything wo can\nwrite. It may be supposed that aome\nof these entries were marked \"paid,\"\nsomo \"good,\" others \"doubtful,\" some\n\"midling,\" and some \"bad,\" but of\nthe marginal notes, and moral and\nreligious reflections we can suppose\nnothing, but must depend for our information entirely on tho undertone\nreadings or musings of Job. as he sits,\nwith his finger guiding his eye along\nthe crooked linea, an occasional smile\nlighting up his face, or a scowl deepening the shadows, and drawing sharper\nthe furrows over tho oyes and the lines\nof the mouth, but more frequently\nthan either, a gloomy or pitying expression playing upon his aged features, at times showing that more than\nordinary gloomy and painful memories\nwere at work, and passing before life's\nmirror, were casting their dark but\ntruthful shadows on his now downward path towards tho goal of hia existence.\nBut Job Henley was au inn-keeper\nof the olden-time clasa, who had acquired titles to houses and lands, and\nkept a solid bank account, and, at the\ndate of our story, had been engaged in\nthe business Bome forty years of his\nlife. He had begun as landlord of the\n\"Brown Bear Tavern\" when under\nthirty years of age, and had outlived\nmost of thoso who had been his customers both in the'earlier and later\ndaya of his business career. A few of\nhia 'patrons lie had aeon riae to -wealth\nand paste of honor in the State or\nNational service, and die honored and\nrespected. Others had lived and died\nin middling circumstances, beloved\nand their deaths regretted by those\nwho knew them, But the great majority Job knew had died iii poverty\nand want, brought about by strong\ndrink, some in poor houses and some\nin prisons. Two of his early patrons\none of them the sou of an old friend\nand a namesake of Job's, had been ex-\neuted, the first for mail robbery and\nthe other for murder,\u00E2\u0080\u0094crimes which\neach acknowledged on the gallows,\nwero the direct results of rum drink*\ning.\nTo say that all these men, whose\nlives ended thus unfortunately, had\ncontracted their drinking habits at the\n\"Brown Bear,\" or that all had become\nconfirmed In their habits there, would\nbe to say what was untrue. But Job\nHenley knew that many of them had,\nnnd he also knew that if he was nut\nalone responsible for thcr sad endings,\nthe businoas of rum selling at large\nwaa, and that he had been a large recipient of its profits. He knew too\nthat the account book that he held in\nhis hnnd was more or less a record of\ntheir lives, and nn evidence against\nIhe honesty and morality of rumselling, from hia first acquaintance with\nthem, until the pour house, the prison,\nor a pauper's grave ended thoir foolish\ncareers.\nBut Job had not kept,a record alone\nof the lives thus wasted and ruined.\nThose few of his customers who had\nquit their drinking habits, or who had\ntne strength of mind to restrain or\ncurb thoir appetites, and who, by\nthrift or industry, had become wealthy,\nor had risen tu positions of honor, also\nhad a place in his personal histories,\nwhioh ,wore read and re-read by Job\nWhenever he felt come upon him what\nhe termed his \"thinking fits.\"\nIt ia in une of these thinking*fits\ntliat we have introduced him to the\nreader. He has just been wondering\nwhat has become uf Will Sweetwater,\n! tflf fm tiniid young man Who, on\n' tiling his first drink at the bar of the\n\"Brown Bear\" was so very much ex\n'atfri ihat he oould scarce steady the\nglass to his lips.
