AFTElt TtlK BATTLJE. "Wlien the hurly-burly'B done When the battle's lost and won." â€" Sii.uU':HP£AnL. There is a nice little three cornered contest in Centre Grey. Two Tories iiiul one Hetormcr running. Now is your time ye Liberals of Ceutre (hey. â€" Grei/ Review of)i,^rd Dec. It was truly a nice little arraiige- laeut all tlimugh, but it did not work quite us well us ilie Review and mauy others wished, and, indeed, iinticipal- c-d. The Owen Sound Adocrtiter was also quite sanguine and jubilant. They can now console one another with the fact that, on the whole, Mowat has been sustained â€" on the strenj^th of liis gerrymandering and the Catholic vote. * * The laggard way Centre Grey elec- tion returns came in, might lead some I'coplo to imagine that we lived up in the neighborhood cf the North I'ole. The night of polling day, full returns fioiu constituencies all over the Pro- \ iu'je came pouring in ; North and South Grey being heard from among the rest. 13at Ceutre Grey gave forth uncertain sounds, and it was not until two days after the election that wc hoard anything definite ; and even then wc had to send a private despatch to Owou Sound to ascertain the fact â€" so wild and indefinite were the re- ports in circulation. * * * Mr. Brown, the Itoforni candidate got a majority of 88 votes in Colling- wood Town.ship. Thus, tliion{,'li tiie defection of McColman, the Conserv- ative majority of 189 in CollingWDod Twi>. was reversed in favor of tlie Re- formers to 38. The misrepresenta- tion and falsehoods of the AVirj had undoubtedly ROiucthiiig to do with this. What did the year old liircling cue about the Liberal Conservative party in Centre Grey, wlicii it did its level best â€" in coiij unction witli Neil McCohnau and others â€" to play into the hands of Mr. Brown and the Ue- forin party ? Houncc the npUttcrt ! * â- â- > * Mr. Tho.s. Andrews, of Thoiiibury, i.s the gentleman who, at the sicoiid convention, shouted out that hinisolf and the other delegates would make Mr. McColnian keep his pledge to abide by the decision of tiiiit con/cn- tion. And yet, in face of all this, Mr. Andrews went straiglit from that con- vention on an electioneering tc/iu' for Mr. McColnian, and against the very man he bad, on his word of honor, pledged himself to support ! What does Mr. Thos. Andrews' word of lion- or amount to anyway ? It is politi- elans of this stripe who reflect discred- it upon tlio party to which they pro- f^'ss allegiance. * * * And Mr. \Vin. Walteis, of Colliiig- wood Township, is the niiin wlio so savagely attacked us from the public platform on Nomination day, aneiil an editorial in The Advakck, headed, "The Traitors." Amongst other tiiitn^s, he said we were a "hoy who published a newspaper," appending a very strong ojitiiet to the statement. Boy though \k mcky bf, we are pre- pared at all tim^-r-»n the platform or thi'ougXtho press â€" to sracossfully de- fend omself against tljc i.ltacka of all the jToli^ioal tricksters.tlu^ haye cv^r fumed asd raged aj» us oii^ any. puhljc r,lalforin :^ Centro, Grey, \yiiy did apt. Mr. McColpwn'fi orfjBii, tlrp Nan, c^gly to our editoriaMn it» ctthimus, foot totli? auction, when ample time and opportunity was afforded it to do so ? Why did it keep hack the fact tiiat Mr. McCohnau pledged himself to abide by the decision of the second convention as well as thelirsf? Why did Mr, McColnian pledge himself to abide by that second convention's de- cision, if he had no intention of keep- ing his pledge, made in the presence of 1!);) representative Conservative electors from all parts of the riding ? Let us have "the truth, the ichoh ti-uth, and nothing but the truth" m tills matter. If we have wronged Mr. McLolinan, or "Mr. anybody else," convince u» of the fact, and we will make the amende honurahle. lint we baveu't, and there's where the rub comes iu.

Now, gentloiiien, the ratepayers ex- pect that every man of you will do his duty ; and as the editor of this pajjcr purposes reporting the procectlings at each meeting of Council in future, your course will be watched nitli in- terest. While wc want you to be as economical as possible, we certainly do not desire to sec you niggardhj in the expenditure of our money. ])on't let our ma!,'iiiticciit gravel roads fall into disrepair. Don't let pathmastcrs put dirt and mud on the roads where gravel should be. Don't bo penny wise and ponnd foolish in letting jobs. Better far to pay a good price and have the job done iu a substantial manner, than to give starvation prices, thereby cncouragiug slip-shod work and costly law suits, for broken limbs, kc. Lay out liie TownHbip funds ou those roads and bridges, kc, where it is most necessary. See to it that the assessment of all kuids of property in the Towiis!iip is made ou an equit- able and just basii». Don't trust to hearsay, but exnmino for yourse-lvcs.

It is amusing to hear «»f tlic Thorn- bury A'dcs claiming the largest circu- lation of any paper in Mast (irey. liald assertion is not proof. Why the Sews hasn't the slightedt shadow of [)ri>of to produce, as it knows about as little ancnt the circulation of its county contemporarioa as tliey do about it, which is soying very Little. Why not make an aflidavit of its cir- culation and challenge the other pap- ers to do likewise ? Just put up or shut up, Dro. Starrett. FLKSIIKliTOX STA TIOX. Interesting and reliable iiifor"iatIoii comes to us from the depot, that the gentleman wlio told us oiico, that "the constant, dropping of water will wear a stone," is nwking himself very con- spicuous by exhorting people not to sub.sciibo for the Aov\xci.:. W'lial l.'eiter could be expected from a man whose insolence to his employer's pa- trons is f?o well known ? And what better evidence of the fearlessness and honesty of the course pursued by the Advanck. than the opposition of such persons'? ITS "IXTKiySIV" VALVK.

As a prophet, its editor is a most lamentable failure, and as a gatJiorer ojiievv^s, 1« i8,iu many capes, ve.»;j' unre\kible. The /\(dvance stuck by the nominee of the convenHun from first to last. Had it followed the un- patriotic course of tiio Ktws, Mr. Brown, the lleforin Caiidida'.e, would in all probability have beea elected. The Advance is always lojal to its own party, and impartial and just in its dealings with opponents. This cannot be contradicted. ; i i' GrlevaiK-c R4>latins; to Public .1l!itl«Ts at .llaxwell.

Mr. lUickiiig- h.*xni being present, and after the close of the meeting, he went around the ratepay- ers telling them in an under tuue, that tlie Trusteug IJoard was a nest of rotten eggs, full of corruptioii and must be bro- ken, also that the peoples money was im- properly used.
