A letter appeared in Tuesday's Glole, over the sifjnaturc of John Jos- eph Lynch, Archbishop of Toronto, iu which that celebrated prelate coines out squarely against the Scott Act. He takes an almost similar view oi compulsory legislation in such mat- ters, as does Kev. John Carry, the well-known Church of England divine, our old friuud, Mr. Bobt. Albery, of Clarksburg, and a large number ol other gcntleiniiu. Common courtesy compels us to respect the opinions of such men, while we may not endorse their views upon the Temperance or any other question. Speaking of the Act the Archbishop 3ay : "We doubt very much wheth- er this partial prohibition, by count- ies, will do all the good which the promoters ot tlie Scott Act could wish. Tho difficulty of enforcing the Act will be very great, it will require a cordon of police around the counties. and a host of spies through them to detect illicit manufacturers and vend- ors of poisonous stuff that they will Bell for liquor, that will quickly bring on delirium trcmens, and Anally in- sanity and other miseries, so that in- stead of one respectable licensed vend- or of safe liquors there will be a host .of persons without conscience or character, who will traffic in this poisonous liquor, winch will cause a greater evil than that which sonic people desire to have suppressed." So speaks the great leader of thiMv'itni the Roman Catholic Church in Canada, of to-day. Does Halton furnish an example of the evil result-* of partial prohibition ? It was in force there, three years, and at the end of that time a strcnuons el. n t was made to have it repealed with what result '.' Why it wns actually nuil liy an i.icreinctl majority, and i.s in force there to-day and giring .,'i ii >il ijeneral satisfaction ! This cer- tainly does not go to show that par- ti. il prohibition is a failure. Again we quote from the letter in -'ion : "One of the great causes oi' intemperance is weakness of con- ./.i'ution and poverty of blood. Give ilic laboring man fair wages by which he can have a comfortable breakfast en the morning of tneut instead of a little tei and bread, often without butter, and thero will be little craving i ir htrong driuk and hence less intcm- : cc. ^^n working in our foun- . tries and factories require strong nourishment, and if they h*d a good i\v! of snnp for their dinner or lunch ! n-i-e uwiild be less craving for strong drink." We beg most respectfully to aaecrt our belief, founded on close obierv- ntiou, that such a state of things does not ucctssaiily follow. How many of rim* living on the fat of tho land solo speak ba,vo been brought to want and misery through the indulg- uice of this "wavioy. for strong drink," wliioh t in our humble opinion, utllicU hiyh end low, rich and pour alike Thousands of instances are not wnnt iug to bear us out in what \vc say In fact wealth and intemperance arc as often linked arm-in-arm as poverty and intemperance and perhaps more so. The Archbishop asserts that the use of wine is not prohibited in the Bible, and says "our Divine Redeemei instituted one of his greatest sacra- ments in bread and wine, and St. Paul advises his disciple Timothy to use a little wine for his stomach's sake, for there are persons of weak constitutions that require such nour- ishment." Its use as a medicine is not opposed by any sane person ; but it does not follow by any means that it is to be used as a beverage. Pois- on is alright in its place, but too much of it produces death, or is at least not beneficial to the system. So with strong drink ; its use as a medicine is in many instances not only quite proper but necessary. And it is to contine strong drink to its proper place amongst the "medicinal poisons" on the druggists' shelves, that the Scott Act has been placed upon the statute books of this country.

On Friday morning the force under General Middle-ton encountered the rebels at a place called Fish Creek about 18 miles south-east of Batoche's Kiel's headquarters. They had se- cured a Very strong position in three ravines, thickly wooded, and held the approaches by sharp-shooters in rifle pits, from which a deadly fire was made on our men. They were dislod- ged by the artillery, but succeeded in vunkiog an orderly retreat, carrying off most of their dead and wounded. A number of cattle and fifty-two dead horses, and two or three dead Indiana were found in the ravines the latter had been overlooked in the haste of the rebels to get away as they doubt- less carried all their dead and wound- ed with them that they could find. Our volunteers suffered a severe loss in killed on the field, and of the woun- ded, a number have since died, mak- ing in all 10 killed and about thirty wounded some very severely, as sev- eral amputations have been made since. Colonel Otter with the Queen's Own succeeded in reaching the beleag- il town of liattleford without any mishap. Their will doubtless be some iard fighting done before the rebellion s crushed, as Iliel is very determined and there arc signs of mine- widespread trouble with the Indian tribes. Turning our attention to Europe, the war feeling seems at fever heat, and it. seems almost impossible that tlie shock of battle betwi m Jiritain and Russia can be averted. Gladstone las made a speech in parliament, tlie firmest in tone on the relations with Russia, since the quarivl i-nnmicnced, and Aviis cheered to the rclio.

We have received the follow-in-,' let- ter from our nu-mbcr for the Com- mons, Dr. bproule, in reference to a statement in our last week's issue con- cerning the Scott Act vote in Grey : Kditur Advance, Fleiherton: SIR, I see by your issue of last week that you intimati! the vote Will be taken ou Scott Act liy-Law for Urey on 2'2nd June, and that the ob- jections filed against petitions were held not valid. 1 may say that is not correct. A copy of the objections was forwarded to Mr. Frost, and he re- quested that time be allowed him to answer them ; this was granted. As yet no reply has been received by the Secretary of State to these objections, and nothing can be done until it is. I am, dear sir, Yours truly, T. S. SP110ULE.
