Friendship, Chap. Wm. Jones, F. S. J. C. Cole, R. S. A. Twitchell, J.B. S. Pennybaker, S. B. C. Wilson, J. W. 11. Folland, S. W. PRETTY GOOD.—We understand that Mr. W. A. Milne has taken the highest marks in the Model Sohool for teaching. In every examination on which Mr.Milue has written, he has succeeded in head- ing the list. In 1881, he passed the en- trance examination, coming out first in Bruce by about forty marks, and at tne last teachers examination he passed high- est in the county of -Huron, We wish him in all his future examinations to bead the list as honorably as he has done so far. AHEAD EVERY Tneh.—A farmer, near Auburn, who bas been making Goderich his market for his produce till a few days age, informs us that he brought a load of wheat to thileplace and got two and three cents a tiara' more for it than he could get in Goderieh. Ho said he was glad. he foundout the difference in the markets, as .he will now centiune to trade here. We have claimed that Clinton is the best market in the county, and the experience of fartnerein all directions, supports our claim. A dispatch from Panama of the 25th inst. says Mr. Hubert, of the Canal Com- pany, has died of yellow fever.

About a year since a man named Hubert received mail matter at the post office here, but nothing more is knoiv,u about the matter.

Mr. Gallag- her, formerly of the Record, is now one of the proprietors of the Pembroke Standard; except that he is on the wrong side of the political fence, he has our best wishes; by- the-way,we believe he has carried away the heart of a young lady of this town, and will no doubt take niore than that part of her anatomy at some future time. .Mr. Wesley Cole had no connection whatever with the communication' on ."diseased meat" which appeared two week's since.
