SoiiH of Tentpcvitnae, Amongst the many thiiiga wliicli tend to maku Kleslierton a niudel f>iaoi, *f"''*'â- most iiosition must be given to rtiiit well Icnowii institution, the Soss of Tkmi'Ke- ANCB.

This circumstance readily sugi^ests the thought, that the great Tenipciwlicc crusade has the leading of the uiind on the one hand .ind the iiealinji of the body on the other ; and that it seeks to guide its ;Â»<llierent8 ever upward till they reach tito state of ])erfectly emancipated inaxhood. With Editors and Doctorsâ€" the power of the jiress and the verdict of science on its sidoâ€" its worthy ends must be accom- plished soon. Ascondinj? the two flights of stairs,.you come tu the neatly funiishad, well kept hall v.-hcre the Division meets every Wed- nesday evening. Tu p;iÂ£Â»-W<Â«ls we used to have a strong objection, which, on trial, is found ([uite groundless, as the pass-word is a very ample and appropriate way of maintaining the unity and promot- ing the i)urost friendship in the great Brotherhood. A fraternal charge, an iij>ening ode with organ, A'c. accom|i<tiii- inent, and a brief devotional exercise lod by the Chaplain, constitutes the prelimi- naries. The "Order of Husinoss" is sini- )>le and practical, covering the ground amply, and so far entering into detail as to consider the pliysical as well as the so- cial well-being of the members. Besides Wing well adapted to present use, Uiti "order of business" has a good (education- al influence and cannot fail to benelit those who in other spheres and after days will have to ub with meetings for the pub- lic Kotid. A pleasant feature of tlie proceedings in "the initiation of candidates," of whom thoro liave been a goodly number of late. The ceremony is at once cheerful, instruc- tive and solemn, and seldom fails to make a marked impression. When all the items, concerning the general work, have received duo atten- tion, there is usually a considerable por- tion of time available "for the good of the order." And while the object of the order â€" jnire, yetiuiiie Temperance work â€" is 4jver kept in view, sufticient variety is intriK^uced under this head to meet the needs and tiistes of every one who seeks (â- ure enjoyment and lasting benefit. Vo- ual and instrumental music, recitHtinns, readings, addresses, essays, debutes, lec- ture.s, impromptu s])eeclu's on scientific, literary, social, and politic.tl (pu-stionR, with a variety Â«if other exercises, combine to make the time well spent. In conuectiun with the Sous of T^m- pcranci lh^^c is also a Ml'ttal Rclicf Society, in whioh, at a suiall cost s.ud with excellent security, uietiibcis may in- sure their lives fnp sums ranging from JtSOO to 83,500. This is worked on the assessment system, aud in the highest ileathrate ye,ar only 12 dtotliF) occurred. 't'lic average is about 8 deaths pur yt-ar. The uible of ftge, cost, aiuount, etc.,. m as foUows : â€" fluence for good, and ever holds itsolf in readiness for any work that will adv*Hce the cause ot Temperance and the geÂ»ieral good of the community and district. The Division seeks over to cultivate a friendly spirit toward all kindred institutions, and heartily rejoices in the success of Tem- perance principles by whomsoever that success may be achieved. TO THE ELECTOKS â€"OFâ€" SOUTH GREY! GKNTLEMfiN. â€" 111 pursuance of the constitutional priticiple, that when there is any material extension of the Fran- chise, the House of Conunoiis has been dissolved, and a new election will take place on Tuesday, 22nd February. Having been chosen by the Liberal Conservative party as their Candidate, I beg tu solicit your suffrages in the ap- proaching contest. If elected I shall give a fair support on all vitui questions to the present Gov- eriiciiuut, believing that it has shewn by its past record to be heartily in accord with the progressive spirit of the ago, and that under its care the laws have been fairly and impartially administered, but on some questions I may be compelled to difier with it. 1 shall favor the repeal of the present Fi-anchisu .\ct, and the substitution for it of Manhood Suffrage. I believe there should be some radical change made in the constitution and func- tions of the Senate, or if this be not lirncticablf, then I should favor its abo- lition entirely. The present fiscal system whicb gives protection to our manufacturies has shewn itself to be successful and should be con- tinued. The depression existing in our agricul- tural interestsand the small returns re- ceived by fanners trmn their investments and labor should engage the earnest and careful attention of our Legislators. Be- lieving that the high rate of interest at which fanners are compelled to borrow money, causes a constant and large flow of their hard earnings to the cajiitalists of the old country, i think the Govern- ment .'hould iis.sume the control of the currency of the country, and that the ne- cessary legislation should be [>a8sed to fiivortheeHtal>lislinien:of Farmer's Biwiks, and the supply of cheap nionny to tlio ag- I'icultuial classes. Now that all the greot public w.orks rendered necessary by Confederation have bion completad, I think the time has come to e>^!r/jiiie the most rigid, ciireful and ecoawiUi'cal control of our expendi- ture, anil to endeavor to carry out the aflaiis of tlu; country without further in- creasing the public debt. Hoping my viewR will mwt with your approb.atiou and that you will favor me with yoursup- I)ort and earnest co.opeiatioii. I am, gentlemMi, Your Obt. Servant, David Jamieson.

The Children, who have been under the training of Prof, and Fairy Morgan, acted their parts very well iHtleed, and the audience was not slow in applauding the same.

The Division is at present in oxcellont working order and civn otl'er advantages not to bo obtained elsewhere. It has over 70 members in good standing, many of whom are snion^rst tlie best Temper- ance workers in the County, and to be with them is to be profited. Without any pantdo, in a 8t<i8dfa8t, consistent ^t>j, this order is wielding Â» mighty in- "R(-<I Ridins Hood."

The leadiim rotr. of Red RifViin; I Hood was capitally taken by Miss Fiuiy I whose siiiuiii'.,' and acting is wonderful for a cliild., Tlie parts of Graiidnia, Mam- ma and Rose were doni^ full justice to by Mrs. Ketclunn, and Misses I'hillips and McGregor, respectively. Mary Mcgregor made a cunning little Huttercup and Mr. Will McGregor distinguished liimself as Woodman and Harry Lainoii as Robin. The part of "Wolf" which pleased tho oblldren most, was well handled by W.P. Bundle. Tlio chorus siiiginp by about fifty children gave evidence of the Pro- fessor's ability w an instructor atid the frequent applause from the large audience gave evidence of their appreciation. We hope Prof. Morgan will give UR another mitertainmoiit before long. â€" fMncUilk HernUL This intorostcng opefÂ»4t*i wss enacted in the Town Hall ou Kiiday evening kst FACTS ABOUT DANCING. From time to time our opinion has been asked on the question of dancing. We prefer to state some facts toucliiii;^ the practice, and leave every one to do his own thinking and readi his own conclu- sions : â€" 1. It is a fact that tihe dancing men- tioned approvingly in tliu Bible was car- ried Oil by the sexes separately and gen- erally, if not always, as a religious act. 2. It is a fact that modern dancing, however well donS). adds no worth to the character. 3. It is a fact that a iirained monkey can excel the best taught young lady or gentleman in the use of his heels. 4. It is a fact that it requires no intelli- gence and no virtue to dance well. 5. It is a fact there is no more honor in dancing well than there is in jumping,, walking, runnijit; or wrestling welii Dancing matches arc on a par with walk- ing matches, etc. ti. It is a fact that mixed dancing be- comes extremely fascinating. 7. It is a fact that much valuable time is lost by this species of revelling. 8. It is a fact that money is wasted on dancing. 9. It is a fact that people who csniiot entertain themselves and each otlier in a rational way, and must eni)>li>y their heels for this purpose, are to be pitied. 1^ It is a fact that young ladies pasniit fainiliarities in the ball-room which pub- lic sentiment univusally eondeiuno as dangerous to purity. 11. It is a fact that maiiy females have been ruined by attending dances. 12. It is a fact that the bast young men, even of those who dnnce,.. do not wish their sisters to attend li.-Uls, and they do not wish to marry daiiciiig girls. 13. It is a fact that the whole spirit and tendency of dancing is worldly. 14. It is a fact that no one was ever noted for piety and dancing. 15. It is a. fact that when a professor of religion follows dancing, 1^ influence for giHid is lu.st. IG. It is ai fact that men of' the woild think dancing inconsistei.t wi^ Christian profession. 17, It is.a fact thÂ«A the best people in the.iKv*rId never daikcc 1^ It is a fact that a dancing Church nieiqiber is not worth anything niiicli to the Cliurch. As the love of dancing L inies in, the 1" vo of God goes out. 10. It is a fact th^ the most pious and cimsidcrate people in all the ilunoiiiina- tions arc '>p;josed to dwciiig, and earn- estly advise gigaiiist it. 20. It is a fact that no youug convert desirofl to dance, nor anyone else in whose heart the love of (iod burns. All these facts can be proven, and are true beyond a doubt. In the light of those, it ought not to be difficult for any inquirer after the right way to come to a safe conclusion. Reader, if you nre a Christian, and wish to decide the ques- tion, "Shall 1 dance?" with reference to your Christian growth, influence and happiness, you will never dance. It is a safe rule, says one, to engage in nothing ui>ou which and in which we cannot ast the Divine blessing. Apply this simple rule to the dancing question, and your feet will never be found in the slippery way of the ball- room . â€" Btipi iai Record. LEITCHS Married.
