W1UTOT asked witness if be did not think that a Sana who waa dismissed from Ma. ANGLIN, Speaker of the House has given a fitting rebuke to the lying slanden perpetrated by tbo Toronto Globe, London Aduerlicr, Guelph Meraury, lugonoll Chronicle, and other unreliable journals as to th* conduct of Sir John A. Macdonald and otbar members of tha Opposition on memorable all night s«uion. Ha writes to his paper, tbe St John's Freeman a* follows :— "Tbe scone in tha House of Common* on Friday night and Saturday was •□Hi. ciantly painful and humiliating, but some of the uewipapers bar* described it as, in cue respect at Inset, much wore* than it really was. Ontario papers apeak ot what occurred in Bitch a way ua to create the impression (hat there WM much drunken­ ness on that occasion, and that extensive indulgatiea in the UM of stimulants was one ot tbn'clilef canxes of the tulmult and uproar of that remarkbio night. Nothing could be more at variance with lb* facta than tins belief. Tuo whole of tb* tumult and excitement, if wo except the episode in which a poor old gnutlotnan from Laps Bretou, wham bis friends will keep at horns henceforth if they have any regard fur .him or respeelfur themselves, played so deplorable a pari, was not censed or even aggravated by inebriety." “Probably there is not iu tho world an­other representative body of the unit size, nod drawn from so many different races and daeaes, who, if they were kept together all night in a etale of extraordinary excite­ ment. would indulge so little as those two hundred gentleman did in the URO of aloo- liolic liquors. The Toronto Globe names those members who, it says, were drunk, and some other* papers name a larger nam- ber, but there WM but the one who by his conduct showed beyond doubt that be was in that condition. The great body of tho membera on both sides were perfectly so­ ber. It i» said ou (La one tide that Mr. Macdongall, ofThr** Riveni, waa drunk ; on tho other, that he was quit* sobar. Ha certainly did make a very rambling inco­herent, and, for th* greater part, foolish speech, in a manner which may not unroa- sonally create acme suspicion that ba did not raisin alt his self-rBspeet, and tlifa evi­ dent attempt to waste lima, following lb* atteDipt, on bis part, to obtain an adjourn­ment, waa wbat first let loose the tempest; bnt than Mveralxrf those who followed him were quite as iveoberent end in<xms*qneh- lial aud nonsensical as ho w*s, and exec pt in on* or two eases none of these war* even •n»p»cted of being drunk ; and Sir John A. Maedouild, ahhouph frequently in tbo Huost, tod moving round much smongu the member* of his Darty, nehber did nor said anything that would atcraet to him tha apodal attention of a streamer. On what the ebarge of drunkenness m*d* against him Tost* we do not know. Those who ought to know best tty he was not drunk ornnd*r the infl tunc* ofstronc drtHr. * * * Some of the paper* uweri that Mr. Ddtnville was inebriated, bat this is absolutely untrue. Ho was quite eobar, and when b* spoke *boc< daybreak he was listened fa with more Um ordiuyry atten- tioa." And again ;—“ Wa oopied an extract from tn Oltewt men, who, beoause they would not pander to the ring of wire-pullers, have been made 'to stand aaide. Many leading Reformers have openly avowed tbemaelvwa a« deter- mhwd not to support th* nomine*, and the split in the raak and file of th* party la do great that it la very doubtful if they will be able to elect their candidate. Bhotild defeat overtake Ibero I hey will have only themsrlvee to I,fam*, far so long as they allow lltemaelvsa to be led Ly the nose, and have their conventions “packed” by Ilie intrigues of unprincipled wire-pullers, they eannot ex pent honest men to support them. To a certain wing of the Reform parly, tho eominalM® of Mn Crooks is quite as ob- j.ctionable as that of lb* Colonel to tho other wing. They my that Mr. Crooks was brought to Boalh Oxford *n th* distinct understanding that it wa* only to be for the unexpired term, and Urey look upon bis Domination at this early day M forestalling the candidature fa order to abet off th* espirationa of the large number of able and talented local men who have boon looking forward in hopes, that at som* futar* day, they might have the honor conferred upon them. * So manifest waa thia feeling in Iba the convention that a number of tho dele­ gates, with a prospective candidate at their head, left the room, and refused to take part in the nomination. These differences of opinion bars bssu brought about mor* by the trickery and underhand action a of a certain few, who have only th air own. per- eaual, pecuniary gain In view than from any other cause, and it is a lasting disgrace upon ths Biding that they should bo longer allowed to exist. Ths nomination of a candidate in tbs interests of a National Policy will take place at Mount Elgin on Friday next. Th* meeting Ie called by Ihe Conservative Association of the Biding, and will not be a meeting of delegales simply, but it will be a general meeting to which everyone in favor of promoting the intereate of Canada by the adoption of a liberal Na­ tional Policy, and who are opposed to the conduct of affaire by the present Govern- men! are eordfaHy invited to attend and Ioka part and share. There are a large number of electors in the Biding who are M anxious as tlic Conservatives are to bring about a now order of things iu this locality and to rid themselves of the thraldom and incubus which lias b««n thrust upon ib*m by qnpricipled nsnrpatton, and the present opportunity is a most favorable one for them to exercise their, judgment and franchise for the welfare of ihe country al large. The Conservative party of this county have no axes to grind, nor have the individual members. They will go into tbs coming contest with but one object in view, and that object, they feel assured, is a patriotic one—one which must commend itself to every wall-wisher of In's co on try. During the past four years,our country has lanqaished under tha efete legislation ot Mr. Mackenzie, and the people are groan­ ing under the burden of Lis maladministra­ tion. Tho Conservative,or National parly, have adopted a policy in which they have tho greateal faith, that if an opportunity is given them to inaugniate, we shall ba lifted out ofthealough of depression into which we have been ao unmercifully dragged by men of inexperience and Utopian ideas. Again wo remind "our friends, who are in faror of the adoption of ouch a policy, to meet *1 Mount Elgin on Friday afternoon and aid in nominating a person who will carry out this principle. THE “INGERSOLL CLIQUE.” To the Editor ol Ch* Oirais Tunes*; DEAR SIR,—It will be remembered by tbe peopl^ of South Oxford chat, four yearn ago, there exist, d iu their midst what be­ came widely known as the '• Iiig^raol! Clique," This clique was oompoRed of a number of men of the Reform parly, of this town, who had usurped the leadership of that party in the Riding ; who bad taken upon IhetuselvM (fie sole management of its affairs, couileBcending, of course, to allow all to follow (hem who would ; and who did inch an amount of dirty work during the fleetion campaign between Col. Skiuaer and Mr. Edgar, that a large num- ber of Re form en became disgusted and voted against tbe nomine* of the Reform Convention, and others declined voting at all. This clique managed tbe wiree in such a manner before the convention met, that they want folly prepared to name and se- prases, witbaut invMligKttea, had good reaaoa to have o strong feelfag on the sub- to Mr. Murdock, which WM fateDd*d to injur* Mr. Murdock** *vid*i»*e.

Tua ELSCTWM will, no doubt, soon be upon ns. B« formers and Conservatives alike ar* getting their candidates koto tho fleld fa »U part* of tho country, and Booth Oxford fa not behindhand fa tha matter. The Roform Convention met at Mount Elgin on Wednesday last and nominated their san did at ea for both ihe Hon** of Commoia and th* Local Legislature. On meeting of CoMerv*th-M will be held far the purpose of noartnetiu* 1 enndidata to foot the man of their choice. Mr. Edgar WM ilia mao, on able man, too, but not wanted by the electors outside of thia clique and their few friends at the convention, u them were several gentlemen of (oca! cele­ brity well able to represent the Biding, and who were in the field for nomination. Mr. Ninon, for instance, WM one ; but this gen- Hemau, for some years, had uo particular love for Adam Oliver, or oven Peter Brown, nor the manner in which they were gobbling up tho country to the north of us, almost without money or wilhont price. He be­ lieved there was rascality going on in ton- necti.m with the timber land busiuew, and Ite did not hesitate to say so in language and manner peeuliariy his own, and Lurt- fn! to the feelings of these gentletnen; con- saquetiiJy.lha clique,which comprises these two gentlemen smong others, would rather have Ruminated an onrider of any character than Mr. Nmwn. Other local men, too, were' thrown aside, beta as* they bad lost faith in the schemers. There WM,po doubt at this time, neither has there been any eioee, that UM great rusts of the Baformen WM aniioua for the nomination of Mr. Sown, but the clique bad so cunningly managed M to secure the appointment of a majority of delegates throughout UM Biding many hundreds c! the party who had no voice fa th* oosrv*®tion war* told that they TORN.

One thing is rer- tain—tbs mass of ilia parly, outside the Ui tic baud of wire-puller* of thia town, ar* disaattofled on account of lb* preaeal uoui- innlion, and feel linmilint-d. It fa stir- pricing that any delegutLiii of men—com- pririnu UI-TC than lb* gellant officer liim- erlt— could give the preference again st Mr. Noxon, and io the Colonel's favor, and I um certain that it could nut have been don* in thia instance in lb* abaeuae of the ioflu- euae of the clique. Ii is certain that Mr. Noxon, if properly selocted by the Reform Convention, would control more voles than any oilier man in tbe Hiding. Then, I ask again, what has brought about this alliane* between Ooi. Skinner and Lis enemies, tbs diqne, and who are al«o the enemies of the Reform party in 8- Oxford 7 There must be some­ thing behind the scenes—that will bo sure to come out, however. I, among hundreds of others, refuted once before to bo led by a set of men who disgraced the party iu th* past, and ar* still doing it, and who, it is certain, will lead ihe Colonel to the same inglorious defeat as they led Mr. Edgar. Hundreds of Reformers will vote against CoL Skinner—or rather against th* gang of Ingersoll wire-pullers—and will either as­sist ihe Conscrvalivea in electing their nom­ inee or will abstain from all interested in the election. It waa thought after, tbe last election that the little crowd bad been completely driven from power in the party, but present indications are that (hey have again assumed tho lead by special appoint­ ment of themselves. A* this is so, it is ihe dnty of all good wen of both parties to finally crash them nt the coming eleetkn. I fe*l certain that honest Reformers will do their utmost to get rid of ib-se men—get them out oi th* party altogether, if possi­ble. It can be dona, aud mnit bo done if tbe Reform party in tha Riding wishes to bs a party of tha future, bearing an honest reputation, instead of a crushed, bleeding, defeated party of tho past, unable to rise again. I call upon all good tneu, by their votes at th* coming election to most em­ phatically show that wo want nd more of the clique organized previous to the Iasi •lection, and which is now beginning to show itself again. Although they were oompletoly flattened out before, their skin (and beads, too,) seems to ba pretty thick, and it become* necessary to do it again.

Somebody has said,that Americans make the beet Frenchman of all the foraigserB who flock here from s’) parU of the globe ; and from what I have seen of them abroad, I am inclined to believe that inch is really the fact. The English are alwsye Euglish, and promenade in London sljlee on the Rue de Rivoli, affect nothing but dog-carts nod drags on the Boulevards and io the Bois do Boulogne, and, when they conde­ scend to learn French, never speak it with­ out the peculiar nasal cockney twang of Piccadilly.

PAY YOUR SMALL DKDTS.—If we were ankod what single act, involving no per- loan! Ibss,would bring the greatest good to the largest number we should answer,with­ out hesitation, " Pay your small debts." There is a large class in every community, who, though possessed of amplo meanders habitually alow in paying their small ac­ counts, who could pay just a* well one time as another, who foil to coneider whai great benefit would result from the very eitnnle net Of justice of paying «■ small bill. 'Of coerm we don't wish to maha any personal allusion* but as a matter of fact we have a large number of small account* now stand­ing out and wo should take it as a great kiudnass, if ou» patrons would act at ones upon the above advice. A ease for aCadi baa occurred in tho Haute Garonne, in Franco. A passant bought a cow at market, and nut tba pay­ ment in gold and a note of 100 francis upon a port, boWiog Hie heart meanwhile.

A few remark* concerning the disposal of the licenses may not be out ot place. It has always been understood and asserted tliat politic* should nut be allowed to enter into consideration in the granting at license*, but the action of our eomniiaaioner* in thia respect ia «o glaring that it cannot escape notice. Tho Thoiupton House, Ingersoll, is tbo pro­ perty of a stannch Conservative, and although poescesing all the requirement* of tha taw, and being n firat-ctaM brick hou»e, with good stalling, and being kept ia a quiet and re­ spectable manner, him never been able to se­ cure a license since the new Act came into force. Tho Thompsons are large property holder* and pay a large amount of taxea, and should bo entitled to a licause if any one should; but, nufurtunaUly for them, their political sympathisers in opposition to those of ths Cummisaiouer*. Mr. Wm. Douglass is a Reformer, and although having been debarred from having a license for the past two years, this ysar he gete one. Ths Carroll House is a targe brick hotel with all the requirements, and no other house of public entertainment near it,but tbs Doctor is a Conservative, and bring » targa property holder and one of the largest ratepayers in the town, and, therefore, pomscsBiag consider- alls influence, his hotel is deprived of a license. Thus leaving only cue hotel in ths target t Ward ia ths town. Next come* ths Walker House, and thereby Tlio«- Walltiw, a Conservativs, and the Haws was taken away frora it. Now, however, it is owned by Mr. McCarthy, of Thsraesford, a jrantleman of the Reform stripe, and the oom- lonka too barefaced, aad the oommiiaionen Tba minute* of the Hat mreling wma read and confirmed.
