Most of the elections for Upper canada
are being fixed BY the returning officers 10 come ef
about the 10th of December Some few come "a
sooner and some later On the lowest calculAtpa,
the Reformers are likely TO return majority Of y
members 10 the new House, IN both sections Of re
Province It may DC nearer 40, but | do not think
will be less Strangeto say, the Tories do not general
ly attempt to make the issue between the two pol,s
cal parties one of Bishop Connection or Anne xaiion
II has always previously been their tactics 70 DO 50
and even now there are instances in which .heyue
the cry, bu, it is by no means general. They Eel
themselves safer in attacking the policy Of the late
Government, and even attempting to ou.bid them in
liberal promises. Not a ~ord Is SAID about rendering
the Upper House elective, but In some Of the Tor
election addresses and the chief talk OF nscal re-
trenchment comes from the same source But Their
pTofe ssions are SO blended and mixed mp with the
most contguated political dcgmas, that are current
only where the masses do not know their rights or
have the independence to arrest them, that these Id
eral professions are dlstIusted.

A strange mode OF political warfare has been
adopted IN Lower Canada By the party which lphs6
the pTetensions Of the friends. Everything which
does not please them, they describe as Socialism
and there has lately been grave official correspond

CouchoD, In which the latter argues tina, clear-grt
ism, IN Upper Canada, Is identical with sOci allsm
the fact beng that both accusers and accused are
profoundly ignorant OF everything reg irdIDg Social
ism except the name. Socialism and Red RepUb
caDism, without one word OF explanation ~ - taef
meaning, form the shbooleth of the anti Progressive
party IN Lower Canada but such a stupid use 0fte
terms can deceive none but those who deligh,n
being cheated. C.
