POLITICAL.
Vlion one remembers that the tide of lolitics is at its lowest ebb just beoro the last session of a dying Parairnent, and that, added to Ibis fact, lomiay night was a bitterly cold one. : must he allowed that Mr a. B. line’s mooting in the Town Hall was good one—well-attended and wollisj)osod if not tremendously civthnsistie. The Monibcr for Stratford poke well, and many of tin;-;* who eard him consider the speech 'o ban eon the host nlatfnnn effort Mr Hine
has yet made in Stratford. T t cannot 1)0 wondered at that Iho spoakei had little new to toil ns, because t!)loaders cf the party he belongs to have for mouths been stumping the country and expressing that party’s views on most matters, hut n'mi 31 j JHino -had to say ho said very well. Parliament meets again to mor ‘ow. and members are heading for the Windy City. The place is being swept and garnished, and as one Wellington writer puts it:—“Ministers, who, during the receess, have been occupying rooms in the Government Buildings, are busy transferring to their quarters in the Parliamentary Buildings. The red, heavy carpets have again been laid on the floors ot the House, and preparations generally are in full swing. .Messengers and officials, whom the habitues of the House see only during session, have again foregathered and will soon I t donning their uniforms.” And yet a little later they will be r win ti e forth again to take part in the sawn old battle for place and power!
