I numerous party at the Council house. In pa posing
the Houses of Parlimout, Alderman Hussey sold it did

yet from the number of pennon who seemed always
ready to lend • hand to Garry forwent the process, owe
would Broom that there wee artainly something
highly enjoyable in the Weyer of menufacturing laws

boy and the frog; the frog was frequently mod
unoomfortably disturbed and hardly bit, and be thought
that the« who mandadared the laws should oonaidar
the ',slings of the people' who, like the poor frogs,
would much rather at thoes be led aloce—(hear, hear,

Tam RoFaxanielfanan 0/ SainigalaY.—ft large and
eatkudeale meeting of the Ooraservatives of Salisbury
wee hold in the Assembly Reams there on Tbureday
night, the proomdings lasting mita pearly 10 o'elosk ;
Mr. R. N. Wilma prodded. The object of the gather-
ing being to hew addreeem from dr. B. Granville
Ryder and Mr. A. Hansard, wbo have bees adopted
64 eaadidatee at the next elation to opposition to the
two sitting Liberal members, Dr. Lash, and Mr. Alfred
Seyenciar. Hr. Ryder first addressed the meeting.
He raid lo all probability, within the snares of six
month., the electors woad have the opportunity of
determining whether they would oontiaue to be mitre.
entwined by the peewit members or not. The Govern-
ment, he remarked, had been very usfortunate in
recent elections, the last two only affadlog them •
gleam of hope; and, in aiveriely reviewing the
meesures they had passed, he said their legislation had
not been • same; and as for their administration, It
bad been • failure. He thought the eountry was
heartily tired of the °merman winds had now
plunged into a eatly war. As to the future he
believed that DO more Waxing legislation was required.
What wee needed was action in regard to sanitary
watery, local tax•Uon, the Income tax, a more easy
and leas expensive mode of tranaferriag lead sad the
ansoltdation and modiftcation of the stahatea. He next
referred to the Iditatios Lot and to the efforts made
by a noisy minority to sears an eadadve system of
national seaular aluoation, adding that the Jotting
aide of religious in education would be one of the
greatest adantrophse which weld happen to t' •
ontntry. In regard to the disedabliahmeat
question, he believed the Church of Ragland
was se entwined in the sffe,tiec, of the people
that it would be the downfall of any Ministry who at-
tempted it—fiend chard. Mr. Kennard next made an
effective speech. He bad had, be said, great pleasure In
meeting the election of Salisbury more than • year ago
as • Amager, but now he came before them as •
resident in the city, having It. interests at heat. After
an allusion to the Animates War aid to themeless of ft,
and to the reeponsibility of the °overman in die-
bending the local form, be said that, as a man, Mr.
Gladstone was roe of whom the country might well he
proud, hula, • 10111644 he thought he was too diver by
half. He believed that so much having been done
during the peat In years • red under • Coaservative
Government wend be a rest of program. The Liberals
had laid so many em and amided over titan so meek,
that they had not been 11614 to ell upon them. The
mission therefore, of lb. Cloaservedves would ho, set
to elleatrb, but to atilise and comildebe the hasty
legislation of the present °overman. In speaking
on the subject of oderatioe, he argued strongly sided
orroalar oduation alone es • greet evil, and also, as an
Mashed mamba of the Chad& of Ragland, against the
attempt at diesdaloliament, which ought, be thought,
to be nipped in the bad. A great straggle would WOG
lake plea, In which it would have to be decided to
whom thedardnies of the country were to be committed.
The Conservatives had every prospect of moms, and,
having • good eons*, he hoped they might have the
hatpins= of seeing it triampkant—(lond aeon). Vis-
count Felkatione who wee sothosiestisally readved,
referred to the Beth and Taunton *latices as having
hese lost to the Conservatlves by people not keeping
their promises, and hoped such • thing would not osoar
In Salisbury. After be had touched epos valetas loran,
It wee resolved, on the motion of Mr. G. Richardem,
seconded by Mr. Beal, a Ooneervative working man, 40
pledge the mating to support Mean Ryder and
Hennaed at the next deaths. The proceedings am-
eluded with the daring of the National Anthem.
