In introducing the bill respecting
the town of Emerson. Hon. Mr.. Gamer.
on said that about four years ago
debt Of Emerson had been re.adjusted
and fixed at about $l05,OOO, govern.
ment guaranteeiugthe interest. The
town failed to meet the interest and
the government had been called upon
to pay something like $500, There
seemed to he no sign Of improvement
mo sign Of an effort on the part of
the town to pay the debt, and the
government had decided to give a
practical illustration Of the govern
ment Of a town by commission, byfap-
pointing a commissioner to take the
place Of the mayor and council to see
II the affairs of the town could not be
got into shape.
Mr.. McFaddcn said he happened to
represent Emerson, and this was the
first intimation he had had that any
such move was in contemplation He
was not aware also that the affairs Of
the town were In such q shape as to
necessitate the taking of this extreme
step. He had just come omEmerson
and the people were not talking about
such move, or II some were they were
doing itsecretly. He held the govern
ment had not been notified
by the ratepayers that the time for
such an extreme move had arrived.
The government should at least have
given him some notice and not sprung
the matter on 10 this way.
The premier said the government
has pretty decided notice that the
town was not able to meet its debts
by being called upon to pay Interest
on the bonds.
Hon. Mr.. Cameron said the matter
had been discussed IN the newspapers
and besides in matters of this kind

News Under George II.

The heavily taxed or stamped newspa-
per of the earlier half of the eighteenth
century can scarcely be described as Au-
GUSTAV. There is, in fact, not much to
choose between the credulously gossipy
"Mercuries" or "Intelligencers" of the
dawn of journalism under the Stuarts and
the many "Posts" and Journals" -four
ishing about the year 1880. Yet the very
quaintness and sensationalism of the jour
nails of the earlier years of George IFS
reign seem to prove them trustworthy
records of the state of the times. Certain
ly the London known to Hogarth and
Fielding appears wildly before US when
viewed through the medium of such
journal as Parker's Penny Post. And
lawless London it was. To judge by in
Vulnerable notices in Parker's following
pages, it was the very paradise of thieves.
In the year 1880 footpads seemed to
have swarmed from Mile End to Hyde
park. Even st. Paul's churchyard was
not too public for them, since here, "on
Wensday (sic) last, ;" says The Post of Oct
&c, 1870, "Mr Downs, a barber in the
Old Bailey, was attacked by three foot
pads, who presented pistol to his breast,
and robbed him of seven half crowns and
I'VE VI udllpeuCo. lIdleT, a
lady is stopped in broad daylight just out
side the cathedral. Her molester threatens
her with instant death if she is unwilling
to give him guinea.
She pays him the money. At night the
footpads become even bolder, and some
notorious young miscreants, hanged at
Ty burn in the autumn of 1880, give an ed
flying account of their operations one Sun
day evening, during which they attacked
and robbed four foot passengers and three
coachfuls of people in the very heart of
the town.
Like mum bers of their confederates, these
youths were little better than idle appren-
tices, in want of funds to enable them to
continue drinking, dancing, singing,
swearing" and lovemaking in the classic
purlieus of Chick lane. This being so,
their dying confessions, sedulously report
ed in The Post, become rather pathetic
documents, as does the announcement that
"they all died very penitent. "-London

A Stepping stone to Higher Rank.

Dublin castle has been the official resi-
dence of the chief governor of Ireland
since the beginning of Queen Elizabeth s
reign-that is, for more than $3.50 years
Nearly so different viceroys have ruled
within its walls during that time, and not
many with conspicuous success, except so
far as advancing their own personal inter
ests went, the Irish viceregal throne being
generally stepping stone to higher rank
for its occupant. In late times Lord Wode-
house was created an earl, Lord Abercorn
a duke and Lord Zetland a marquis. Lord
Spencer refused a marquisate and Lord
Londonderry accepted the garter, though
he might possibly have preferred duke
dom.-London Truth.
