'For heaven.'* sake/ escjainM tho Sydney Evening News, ' Let v* call a spade » spade, and 1 when a rnomber of Parliament it fined" for boing dnwk and remanded to- prison, for madiosl treat* meat,.dotkl let aa indulge in maudlin remarka aboat tho hon. gentleman's illness rendering it likely that he will retign hi* teat. If tome poor Billy Smith ia brought before magistrates and fined, the faot is recorded without) any reference to tho poor fellow'a frelingt ; and when Mr William T«eoe, member for GonJboarn, disgraces himself, the Attembly and the oolony, it in right that everyone- should know it. Mow can w.o e*p*t»t tae atari* dard of ohnre^ter and meaoera- in the Assembly to be taiaed except by the electors being informed of tho deeds of their chosen representative!. Mr Tosce wat fined 1 the other day for drunkanneas, and aupsequently waa arrested' for tha same miideflnManotw on a chnrob at Panttmatta, and was. ramandedi to gao4 for medical treatment. Thia worthy member of Parliament now say* that he is quite- well and! doea not intens) to resign. For his own aakey and that of his excellent family, we traat he will resign, and endeavor in< the futare to justify (fee high hopot that were oooe formed of him. Perhaps the good people of Gottlbourn. will not take the same viow that he doea of bis recent illneti, 1 bat will demand his resignation in no an* certain terms.
