I\TE\D TO RETALIATE. with entbuaiasm and exoitemcnt. Its bij,' exhibition was formally opoued on Tuesday by Hia Kxcellency, Governor htiinlcy. On Monday ho was tender- ed a royal reception by the municipal ofticers of the city, in the Horticultural Pavilion, at which 5,000 people were ! present. Toronto, if anything, is a 1 luyal city, and always recoivea in a ' ina".'nificont manner the represent- atives of our (^lu.en. Euiin Iky went into the heart of Africa to hunt slave-traderH ; Stanley Went to hunt for Etnin Bey, and now another plory-liunting American has gone to search for Stanley. And still the fivc-r-haunted marshes of Central Africa cry out, ''Come on, Macduff." For some time past the mcmbocB of the House of Representatives at Wash- ington have been wran^'ling over a nmrrow-bone of contention, viz., the Fishery Retaliation liill, wliich tinally passed the House on Siiunday last. h still has to yo before the American A Biitl Spirit.

I poll this oiner.,'oiioy this innocent i.ocuvering in their representative „,j ,„^„ wa.s induced to come. Uut the licuses, the low depths of groveling Modical Hall had certain definite rules iusult ftOd calumny heaped upon (treat j regarding the sale of li()uors. Ihitain and Canada, and the pitiful spectacle of a people who try to make pditiual capital at the expense of the liner feelings and friendly advances of a neighboring people. It will, at least, have the effect of placing the hiais aad stiipi s iu unenviable con- trust with tlie union jack; it will re- move the iilm from the eyes of many Canadiaua \yho have looked with clouded vision upon the glitter and v;lamor Burrouudiiig the republic to tlic south of us and thoiiLihl it a good tiling to conneel ourselves more losely with â€" 111 fuel place our.selves miller the conind of the .American mi rcautile world. Tliiie are a fiiw such, but wo predict that the sorry siMictacle which has lately been prc- senlod, of American Senators and Anierioan CuiigresMUen tr«m]ihnt,' upon our just deserts, and outraging diplomitii! jus.ice, will very largely have tho effect of di.sgustmg even these adviwates of closer intimacy with 1 verything American, in politics, at hail. the agility and dexterity he possessed. The bear did not attempt to climb up after I\Ir. McAfee, but cast s*ome ter- rible glances at him, and after a while moved off. Tho dog used the precaution of keeping a safe distance betwoi II hiiu.self and the boar. Hears liavd got so numerous that it is almost a daily occureui,u to see from one to four between the 9th and nth liiM's, There is a good hunting chib or- ganized for tho express purpose of leesening the number of bears in that part of the township, and the Jirst hunt of the season will take place in a day or two. Tiout fishing ends on Saturday, and fish stoiii ! will be at a (liscouiit for an- otlier i:\j,\it UMiitlis. Here is our last, as a kind of farewell: From Kimburley we had forwarded to us last week a qu.irter of a trout which woigUpd when caui,'Iit 21b. 10 oz.. and measured 17} inches iu ]eii:,'tli. The piece received made a break f.ist for three. of Ah n prool of the low ebb Aiiierioaii poiiiics, and tlui di (itlis iif ininmnly di ^'r.d.itioii to \*liieh .Xmeneaii poliliciaiis can ihseend, ihis fishery hiioin--:! is a glaniig liiustration. Seoiiting the eoiiscien- Ui.ns endeavors ofdreat Rritain and f'anada to effect no aniicahle settle- First, wo never use the pri»ilegcthe laws ijive us, to sell indiscriminately, even to tho aix ounce limit. We roust h1- wajs have a rensouablo evidence that it is to U> useU as a medicine pure and aimplo. So that it is ii'rmarvel that in this iiistaiico the saino safec^iiards were used. Let mu say, the old ^'entlcmaii has a (lauijliliT, who was and is out of health, aud for whom stimulants had been ordurod before. When the question was put, is this till sickness? his reply was "yes." Next (juihtion, "how is your dau'.<hter now 1" The answer was, ''not very well. " S.i that it wiis K'iven to him,:u understood by us, for his dau;<liter. IJul no siiouer had this stiiiiulaiit |)as.sed to this mail, who Kulwcribcs himself us Stephen Spirit, tli!iii he supposed lie had us iindiT his clutches. 1 am told he has tho Ixittio sealed for the day rif doom and destriiotioii. I hopu ho will keep it whore ho can always see it as n warnini; to his utieiaiiiplel iiicixniieSi. Now It so li:ip|ions that a licensed medical pmctitionur is not limi'ed to sij- ounce), nor to sixty ounces, as lout; lu ho does not wantonly ^dve it fur tho saku of trade. In this oaie 1 was present, and tho liquor was given upnii a medical privilege only. I Impe tiiia i!X|.lanation will serve two purjioses -first, by exoii- eratin;j[ us from blimio, and second by os- tablisliiiii; the character of a man who lives among us. One other tliiiii( T merely .stiite, that a man who utters sucli a sentimunl as tiliis, "That he ho]ies thai (lod nor the devil will get him until he gets venijuance," is a dangerous imui, and it is a question iient, they, for the basest of political whether I ou'jlit not, as a public man, imqioses, refuse lo .icept any peaceful terms, and iiave tho ofirontery to say, ill (fleet, "Heed not our boiistingâ€" wo wink while we talk." Tlie New York Tribune says : "That thi.s Adniiiii.sUntion will exfiiciso the powers coiifencd by the bill, if it shall heeome a law, Bcaroely anybody liolieves.

Yours, DU. OHUISTDE. Sept. 10, 188H. Eire liiiijH at Dundalk. Al â- â- It l..'JO .Sunday morning lire broke out ill Dundalk hi the store owned by .lolui Cijiiiio;- and ocuupiad by James E.'erti'ii as a liiiuor storn. Despite tiie eilort,^ of the peqile the lire spread and soon .1. D. Morgan's storu and dwelling, 0. II. Ji well's furniture workshop, the Ilaiibiiiy block, occupied by Jeweller Jcliiwton, liiid Jaiiiea C^uinor's store and dv.elliie:;, were in ttauies. The total loss is eslinmted at about ?8,000 ; p,-vrtly covcrr ii by iiiaurauuB. Jewell's furniture st'ic and Hanbnry's store Ik in-; built of brick, those buildings were saved, tliou^fh badly J. imaged at tbu back. The fire was iiiideubfeilly tho work of an incen- dKiry. Since the above naa put in typo we learn that one or two arrcs-ts have I>oen made in connection with the affair, but the parties were dischar^red. Tho cim- stabulary of Pundalk are about as bin " farce as their lockup, and that is saying a ijood deal. An IC.rjilfitiiition. The coinmnnioation from Dr. Christoe, in this issue, may appear somewhat ob- scure to niairy of our readers who arc un aci|uaiiiled with the circumstances. We did not care, from charitable motives, t<. iucnli''n the malti-r heretofore, but now that tho Dr. has miulo it public property we feel at liberty, and in duty bound, to exjdain t!ie disagreuftble affair fully. Some tiv > or three weeks wj^o Dr. Chris- toe felt it bis duty to briii'.^ Mr Spirit before .1. W Arinstroiii;, J. P., where he was tiiieil i.n two diireieiit iiifi>rmati'iiis, viz. , for using abusive languaije, and furious ilriviiii{. Since that time Mr. Spirit appeal's to have been layini( a deep plot to wreak a heavy vengeance upon the 111., and taking advantage of the latter's amiable dispositioo, he foimd it not ditlicult to'sociire si.tlicient evidence, as ho thinks, to convict the Dr. for sell- ing mole than the prescribed six ounces, and has accordini'ly laid inforiuatioii be foro the license inspector. Wo aro sorry that the matter has gone so far. It is only a personal affair at best, and such things should never ocour iu a village which boasts the same amiable nature that Fleriliertoii inhabitants are noted for. We Hli.nild like to see the thing droj>ped, and an amicable settlement arrived at. Such Would refloct more credit upon both parties than eternal warfare, where ii'i just object is to be attained.
