but I for one have a strong objection that they should presume to speak, either for the Board of Trade, or the Corn Exchange Association.These impromptu, and strictly speaking, unauthorized deputations, are becommiug too common.Merchant.Montreal, March 19th, 1875.G1TY ITEMS.If you want to he well dressed, wear a Warwick collar and have your boots blacked.New Office.\u2014The Montreal Telegraph Company have opened an office at St.Simons, Que.Visiting Governors.\u2014Messrs.David Robertson and Brackley Shaw are the Visiting Governors to the Montreal General Hospital for the week beginning Monday, 22nd instant.The Health Committee held a meeting last evening, and discussed their line of action for the current year.There was a full attendance of members, including Aid Mullins, who appears considerably improved by his late four in the United States.Pantomime.\u2014Bob Butler, well known on Broadway and the Bowery as a clown of unusual excellence, debuts at Theatre Royal in Humpty Dnmptv, on Monday.Ho is accompanied by Mile.Venturim, Columbine ;

we shall only show by a hasty review of Mr.McDougall\u2019s life, how exactly adapted he is for the part which for the last few weeks he is aspiring to play subject of course, to the part that his interests as a practical politician may suggest to him, in a very near future.At his entrance to public life the Hon.William was known as a Grit of the Grits, just as the Apostle was a Hebrew of the Hebrews.We don\u2019t know that iie did a great deal in the way of perse eating the Tories, but we believe no one at that time had any doubt of his perfect willingness to do so if he had a chance ; tant mieux pour eux, if he Lad not ; and to tell the truth they were not one bit behind him in intention and they managed so far as words went to carry that intention into practice Who that remembers the public life of those days, but also recollects the varia tions of the key in which it was asserted over and over again that Mr.Me Dougali was a cold, selfish speculator in politics, who had no conviction as to principles, and no sym athy with associates ?Who does not re call the continual sneers at his poverty, accompanied by as continual allegations, that he was at any moment ready to sell his party alliances, if the Conservatives would only condescend to buy such depreciated merchandise.Notwithstanding all this extreme out side unpopularity, Mr.McDougall was generously supported by his party friends, and when they came into power, under the lead of Mr.John Sandfield Macdonald, he obtained the highest mark of confidence which it was possible for them to bestow.He was raised to Ministerial rank, and he thus not only secured the immediate, though fair reward, of his services and capacity, but he was marked out as one of the leaders, in case of any future opportunity of making his services available, in a position of distinction.Accordingly, when the coalition Government was formed, for the purpose of carrying out Confederation, Mr.McDougall was again made one of the Ministry, and fro n that time the practical character of his political life has been the most important feature of it.Previous to that, he had declared, that unless he could obtain justice which he demanded for Upper Canada, he would look to Washington for a remedy ; but no eooner did he bask in Conservative sunshine, and blossom out nto the dignity and exclusiveness of Ministerial office than he became the most loyal subject of Great Britain, and the equally most loyal contemner of Washington and all things Yankee.He was not even ashamed to declare on public occasions that he had up to the 4* .JS of only in uselfinto ug done so, j declare that or, in the verua-This conduct he n ashamed of as even t.On the contrary, he s constituting his claim to al politician, which he thus aed from a sincere p-fiitician.j Grit ot the Grits was now the t\u2019ory of the Tories, and not merely .espect to those theoretical principles ¦ hich men cf very modest life and simple personal behaviour frequently entertain ; he was a Tory such as the most vulgar hostile imagination paints,a member of that parly who, when in power, can be approached only bat in hand, and who are never civil except when they want to steal a sinecure or the profits of a job.The only persons who seemed to be regarded by him as men of the same race as Ministers of the Crown, were those by whom Ministers of the Crown lived, especially the DU i'ajores of the Ottawa Olympus.At last, to the surpise of every one, it was whispered widely that William had had what his Premier once called a temporary fit of independence.It was true that at first this whisper declared that he was thus independent with a majority of the Cabinet, and that if Sir George Cartier did not succumb, Mr.McDougall and his friends would eject him from the Ministry, and so save eight millions of dollars by making the Intercolonial Railway pass by Riviere du Loup and Woodstock, instead of by way of Lake Temiscouata.Rather than sacrifice bis independence to be thus exercised with the majority of his colleagues, he openly declared his willingness, and even his intention to dig potatoes.However, the supposed majority of the Cabinet turned out to lie a minority, and Mr.McDougall did not find it at all necessary to be independent, or to engage in the potatoe business with so small a number of piersons.Instead of potatoes, the result of this second thought was\u2014when he became inconvenient in the Ministry\u2014a Lieutenant-Governorship in Manitoba, whither he went as we all know with all the materials for a noble representation of the Crown, in the throne, sceptre, and proclamation line of monarchical manifestation.What came of that is matter of history.Mr.McDougall believes that he behaved with the judgment of a Solomon, a Henry IV., an Edward Ill.and Sancho Panza rolled into one.But success is not always to the prudent, just as the battle is not always to the strong, and in spite of the sublime wisdom which the expectant Lieutenant-Governor carried with him to the boundary of Manitoba, along with the upholstery of gubernatorial state, he came back again bringing all the wisdom with him.But this admirable quality served him no better near the centre of ajfajrs than at the periphery ; Mr.Howe and he fell ofjt about what had taken place when they met on the prairies, and Mr.McDougall on his part hit back by accusing his late colleagues not only of the old sin of wasting the eight millions of dollars, but of garbling public documents which they brought down to Parliament for the purpose of deceiving tile members.After this Mr.Me-Dougall\u2019s conservatism was esteemed for some time very doubtful by the more orthodox professors of that creed ; but he fully re-established his right to a chief place in the synagogue by occupying his enforced but elegant leisure in procuring a patent to give him for an inconsiderable price, a valuable property at Silver fslands, which had been in good faith sold by the Montreal Mining Company after a quarter of a century of possession, to purchasers for a very large considéra lion.Untoward circumstances spoiled this benevolent enterprise, as similar circumstances had done the previous attempts to civilize Manitoba.The hon.William once more sighed for occupation, and this longing so far overcame his disgust at the garbling of ijes-patchesby the Government, that rather than serve his country he took service under these talsificators.Scandinavia the romantic land of the Norsman, the cradle of the authors ot the Sagas, the footstool of the great Thor, the throne of the mighty Odin was the scene of his new exploits, an amed Pills, for wind In the stomach, from which I sillier, ed excruolating pain for a length of time, having tried nearly every remedy prescribed, but without deliving any benefit at all.After taking two bottles of your valuable pills I was quite restored t > my usual state of health.Please give this publicity for (be benefit of those wbo may thus be afflicted.\u2014lam, Sir, yours trul?, Henby Allpass -To the Proprietors of Nobtow\u2019s Camomils Pills \u201d\tly füy s 163 MARA\\1LLA COCOA.\u2014 T A Y L o B Bbqthesh (the largest Manufacturers of Cocoa in Europe,) having the exclusive supply of this unrivalled Cocoa, Invite comparison with any other Cocoa for Purity\u2014line Aroma\u2014-Sanative, Nutritive and Sustaining Power\u2014Easiness of Digestion \u2014 and especially, high delicious flavour.One trial will establish It as a favourite Beverage for breakfast, luncheon snfl \" Bqotlflng rsfresUment after a late evening.N.B.\u2014caution\u2014u Mavavtlla \u201d Is a registered Trade Mark.MARA VILLA COCOA .i\u2014The Globe says ¦«»»\u201c Taylor Brothers\u2019 Maravilla Cocoa has achieved a thorough success, and supersedes every other Cocoa in the market.Entire solubility, a delicate aroma, and a rare concentration of the purest elements of nutrition, distinguish the Maravilla Ogapft ftflqye all OthSTS.For Invalids and Dysgeptisa,we OQUld cot recommend a more agresqhla or valuable beverage.\u201d For farther favourable opinions, vide Standard, Morning Poet, Rritieh Medical Journal dto., Ac.HOMŒOPATHIO COCOA.\u2014This orl-glnal preparation, which has attained such a world-wide reputation, Is manufactured by Taylor Brothers under the ablest fioqioSQPkDlio afiyioe.mfled by the skill and experience qf tfie Inventors, and will be found to coralline in an eminent degree the purity, ano aroma, and nutrl-tious property of the fresh nut.SOLUBLE CHOCOLATE, made In one minute without boiling.The above articles are prepared exclusively by Taylor Brothers, the largest Manufacturers In Europe, and Laid I» tin-lined packets only by Storekeepers and others all over the world.Steam Mills, Briek Lane, London, Export Chloory Mills, Bruges, Belgium.Anrll 28\tly t'PH 98 BIRTHS.At 32 Durocher street, on Sunday, the 14th instant, the wife of J.Fogarty, of a daughter.was necessary that the commissariat officer should certify to the accounts.The Chairman said a luge number of vouchers were similar to the ones shown and asked witness if he considered them correct.Mr.Fleming said he considered them ill soirte (aspects incomplete;
