Whitby, on Thursdaylast, Deceased had
reached the advanced • age of 76 years ; she
had been an. invalid for about two years,
and her death, had been daily expected for
a short time past. One of the,oldest resi-
dents .,in that neighborhood she had 'a
very wide circle of acquaintances, her
funeral being one ofthe 'largest witnessed
in the neighborhood. ' She was, and has
been for many years, a faithful member of
the Baptist church, and died with a con-
scious;assurance of a blissful hereafter.
BRTEES.—The Legislative grant to Clin-
ton Public School this year is -$364. o°The`
town presented a very -lively appearance
on Saturday. , ,Few house flies are here
this season, doubtless do to the fact that
the weather has been generally cold. The
balconyy in front of Mr. Robb's store adds
materially to its appearance. Hullett.
township voters' list, containing over 900
names, was set up and}printed, in this
office, in alittle over two days ; what office.

drive or walk to any part of the totvn now

'BAD ACCIDENT. ----,One day ,last week a
pretty bad. accident -happened 'on the.road
between Varna and Brucefield,'whereby a.
-covered buggy belonging to Mr. D. B.
Kennesiy,_ot this toren was badly broken,
_and a'' lady and gentlethaii,"(Anerican):
sustained severe injuries The: parties in
question were visiting at Morgan's •Hotel,
Bayfield, 'and had .procured • the,• convey-
ante in which'.o"drive about during their
stay..' OP 'the day in question as they were
driving along the road, a bicycle hove in
sight, -ridden by a teacher engaged near,
Varna. The horse being timid, thegen-
tleman, so it is` Said, requested:the teacher
to stop until he should get „past, but this
he refused to do, and the consequence was
that -in passing the horse became so fright-
ened that it dashed to one side,.. overturn-
ing the buggy, violently thro*ing oft the
occupants, and dragging the inverted;bug
gy,alon'g the road until it bore little -re-,
semblance to its former self'.' , The lady'
•
sustained a severe sprain. of; or•an le,
while the gentleinan,hedhis spine injured.
A commercial; traveller, who ,was. close
behind, only escaped a similar accident;
by his -good and resolute ',management of
his horse. During the same' week . the
byciele was the cause, of a large milk
waggon being upset and the contents of
the cans lost. The attion'of the teacher
is very- 'strongl ' commented on•, for it is
said that he paid no attention .whatever
to theaccident.he had caused, and if this
be true, his edurse ' was •contemptible-iri
the extreme, but we hope • for • his own
sake that•this is not true to the extent re-
• presented..Although: the courts bate
decided that a bicycle has as much right
to the highway as any, other vehicle, there
is a certain degree of courtsey necessary
on the part of riders thereof that should
be observed.just as much as the rule to turn
