His body was found upon the road about four o'clock next morniug. Deceased was about 45 years old. .An Amherstburg butcher named Primean met witbja peculiar accident ---:-recently. He Was bringing an -ani- mal into the slaughter -house baying his knife lengthwise in his mouth at the time. The destined victim threw up its head and knocked the knife out of his mouth in such a way that bis throat was cut in two places. Mr Lyman Dechane and his son, of Midland, were on Friday buried un- derneath a large stone, weighing about five tons, which they were at- tempting to sink. They were both dug out alive, but Mr Dechane died two hours afterwards. The son will in all probability recover. One leg is broken and bruised: but otherwise le is not seriously hurt. visit. g them song - these pe of A Canadian who visited Ireland recently met Mr Henry Merrick, ex - M. PP. for Leeds and Grenville, and now Dominion Immigration .Agent - at Belfast. Happening to touch up on the Home Rule question, Mr. Merrick said since he had gone to reside in Ireland he had seen that there were two sides to the matter, and now believed in Home Rule for Ireland. The first consignment of carriage horses for Scotland from Canada was made at Montreal last week, the Horse Exchange shipped five of them for Glasgow. They were a fine lot of animals and were bought in the Eastern townships a short time ago. It is thought that a large trade can done in this line, as the prices are ruling high in the Tluitrd States es well as England. I-Iugh Gilmore employed as switch- man in the Michigan Central yards St, Thomas, was run over by an en- gine and instantly killed last Friday night. He was standing on the rear step of an .engine when he slipped and fell, the tender wheels passing over him, crushing him in a terrible manner. Gilmore was a young man 21 years ot age, unmarried, and had been employed as switchman about three months. His parents reside at Palmerston, Ont. The attention of the passengers in a Texas smoking car was riveted oa a strangely -acting Negro. He rocked himself from side to side without ceasing. "What's the matter with you?" asked Andy Faulkner, who was in the car. "Do you know Dan Mc - Gary?" "Of course I do." "Well sah he sold me a either watch for $20," continued the Negro, still swaying from side to side, "and of' I stops movin' dis heah way de watch don't go no more." Jonathan an Ellis, of knitted goods, Port Dover, and rfor- merly editor of the W Ingham- Times writes: "I do- not by any means deem the thirty-three manfacturers who recently met in selemn ;concldve at .Toronto as being to any appreciable extent representative, as I am per- suaded a very large proportion 'of Canadian menufaoturers are on the side of unrestricted trade. I repeat, only such'. of our manufacturers as lack brains and energy need fear com- • ., mercies e, aeon. Sir Richard Cartwright addressed arge meeting of his constituents in ngersoll last Wednesday night. He 'lectlesed Unrestricted Reciprocity ith the United States, viewing the estion from many standpoints, pre - e r ting its advantages, but also point- ingout the difficulties in the way. Ile, however, said he bad reached the Conclusion that on the ,whole, if a fair and reasonabio r:+•^ iteciprocity with tsurhof Un - e United States could be obtained, it would be in the best interests of the people of Canada. One of the cases at the Brant As- sizes last week was that of Hawkins vs. Bickford. This suit is brought by J. J. Hawkins, of Brantford against E. O. Bickford, of Toronto, the well- known railway contractor and specu- ator. The sum claimed is some $8,- )00, the consid(ration being time, work, and influence in securing bon - Mee for the Erie & Huron road from Sarnia and Sombre townships, and 'or time, influence and labor at Ott - ma in connection with the Govern- nent grant and other advantages secured for the same road. He got a verdict for $3,000 The excitement occa ioned by the• appearance in the Minneapolis Tri- une on the morning after President Jleveland's visit of an editorial con- taining severe strictures on the ad- ninistration and manner of conduct - ninthe present tour for votes' cal- atedlast Friday night, when A.J. Blethen, proprietor of the Tribune, vas burned in effigy by a crowd of 'oughs. Exception has been pafticu- arly taken to an editorial referring rr meet uncomplimentary terms to VIrs. Cleveland, and saying, among )Aller things : "it is hard to have respect for a woman who would sell lerself to so gross and repulsive a nan as Grover Cleveland." The ?nob vas led by Mayor Ames. It become more and more evident ach year that much of the sickness prevalent in the country is directly ttributable to the quality of the rater. By carefully studying the natter it is found that in nine cases ut of ten typhoid fevers originate in amilies whose water supply is from a 'ell into which impure water comes. 'his may be from the farm -yard, and (lite generally such is the case, For eine years the water in a well near he house may he pure and whole - erne, but by and by the soil between and the house will become so im- rP.ggnated with pollution that an un- ealthy quality will be imparted to it, nd disease will result from its use. The Windsor, S. A., Tribune says that a ferocious bt.1l on the Le Brau Dyke, chased a young man the other day, who to escape the horn of the dilemma, wisely took refuge in the branches of an oak tree. The bull kept guard. and the youug man spent the whole day in that uncomfortable situation. The Government has received ad- vices that a meeting of thehalf-breeds of Batocbe was held a few weeks ago. Various questions came up. It was decided to circulate a petition to be presented to Parliament nextsession asking indemnity for losses sustained by the half-breeds during the rebel- lion. The Canadian oatmeal millers hate just completed the organization of a joint stock company, which indludes all the millers in the Doininion. The object of the company is to combine for the purpose of obtaining a fixed price for meal and limiting production. A number ot'mine have been leased by the cent out of the increasedt to make profits to pay the rent for these mills and leave a fair margin. Minnie Demorse, the adopted daughter of James Henderson, of Manistee,Mich,,was arrested Tuesday for larceny committed several months ago, but the real -sensation in the case has just come to light. This spring Mr Henderson's cow died, and her milk just previous to her death killed nine pigs. The girl confessed that she poisoned the cow because she did not want to milk it. Mr. Henderson's house was set 013 fire five titres in one day a few weeks ago, and the girl confesses she did that, too. Mr. Henderson's baby died suddenly, and the girl confesses she smothered it because it cried and she did not want the trouble to care for it. She is 18 years old, and wasdopted fifteen years ago. Tuesday night W, Walsh ,accompan i - ed by another farmer named Raritan, Was walking along the Grand Truok railway about a mile from Lucan,at a place called Morgan's crossing. They observed a freight train approaching and b&th got out of the way. As the train passed the two men, not observing another engine following closely, again stepped back inside the raffle. As the engine rushed upon them Heriton sprang clear of the track, shouting to Walsh to drop into the matte -guard. Wheat'her .Weigh tried to do Allis or not Hariton could not tell. When the train passed he was nowhere to be seen. Lighting a match Harlton searched along the track, and about fifteen yards away found Walsh's lifeless body, with the head cut off. The young man was only about 30 years of age, and lived with and supported his widowed mother. When the iron plough was first introduced about 100 years ago, Sir Robert Peel— the first of the na mA— interested himself greatly in getting them used by his tenants. After a year•or two's use of the impleulents,-. Sir Robert asked his tenants what they thought of them. "We be all of one mind," returned the honest Staffordshire men,"that they do make the weeds grow." This- was looked upon at first as a display. of dense ignorance and conservatism, but it turned out to be true—the iron ploughs could be run deeper, and thus they brought up to the surface within the influence of light and air millions of weed seeds that would have lain undisturbed for ages below the reach of the old wooden imple- ments. A complaint that looks at first similarly inconsequential is now made about self-bindin harvesters -- that they cause Canada thistle8 fu grow." The connection between the I greatest triumph of modern imnlm W on t making and th., g • reatest pest of North Amercan farms is not immediately apparent. But when it is tonsidered that a faithful band -binder throws out many of the thistle stalks, while the binding machine bundles up everything that is cut, the genuine- ness of the complaint is at once seen. The remedy of course is not to quit usfug self -binders, but to get rid of the thistles by thorough and frequent use of the cultivator or by'a real sum- mer fallow, such as will not let a living blade be seen above ground. EDITORIAL NOTES. T]IE Grand Jury at York assizes,in their presentment, recommended that in addition to imprisonment, crimes upon women should be punished by the lash. It is a healthy sign to find that sentiment in this direction is be- coming stronger and stronger,and the suggestion of the Grand Jury should be acted upon when occasion demands it. THE State of Massachusetts has re- cently issued an official census in which are some returns very import- ant to Canadians. Out of the total foreign population of the Sante, 147,- 352 are Canadians. in 1865 the num- ber of Canadian residents was 32,390, so that it has quadrupled in twenty years, Since 1875 -there has been an increase of 71 per cent, We suppose all of these Canadians went there to better their condition, and we pre- sume are doing it. Now, they went in not only for Commercial Union,but for Annexation out•and-out,and other States in the 'Union would show a similar state ot affairs. Toes it not seem an absurdity that we cannot trade on equal terms with a people largely of our own nationality, and a people whose numbers are constantly being augmented by additions from this country.

White- ley is a self-ula.de man, a vulgar, nusbiag egot- ist, who has built mien immense business from very bumble beginnings, a business so great and so flourishing that even the successive ceuflagrations, which have converted into flame anti smoke from first to last property valued at over £1,000,000, have failed Mated' ally to affect hie operations. What is more remarkable is that his success has not been on account of the conflagrations, but in apite of them, for a peculiarity of 1Vhiteley's position is that he has been burnt down without being insured. 1e, recent years, et any rate, the in - replant, companies have refused to accept bis rislis. The cause for this, it is alleged, is not far to seek. Thu fit es, in Vhiteley's own opinion, are the work of an incendiary. In these suc- cessive Writings of Uniter,al Providers' stores vee,late the vengeance of 911 enemy. Upon this subject all kinds of stories are floating about. There are some who 10tus3 to see in it the revtuge of a girl who has marked her resentfneut et her desertion by snaking 1ti holocaust. Less ruul:ultie, but Inure probable is the belief that the Gres ere the work of some of the innumerable urea whom Whiteley has ruined by his competition. Whiteley has been as bail as the co-operative stores in cutting down the prices of retail tradesmen. He ha3 invaders step by step, ahrioit every branch of retail industry. Now there is no- thing except milk which he is 'riot ready to supPIngs and He undertake l for dethroned mon- archs like Cetewayo; to provide partners for a ball, to feed a regiment, er to furnish or provide a wife, according to orders received. Thorn is nothing from coffins to bride's cakes and cradles which he is net willing to supply at a moment's notice at prices below those of his neighbors. Ile has never advertised and itis by no means a pleasure to shop in his enormous promisee; but by sheer- dint of selligg for gash only apt the !weep possible price Ile has built up a business Whew is one of the wonders of London. His fortune has been, raised upon the bodies and bones of crushed and discomfited rivals who accord- ingly hate him with a whole heart fervently and are to -day expressing but one regret, viz., that William Whiteley is not calcined to ashes along with his establishment. A person who knows Whiteley's well and has a relative employed there says: "ln no place I know of in London or the provinces is there anything approaching to the wholesale system of th ng ma for t his else that14that exists at Whliteleyet H'sis whole system is one savage slavo-driving from top to bottom. Whiteley himself patrols the establishment like a roaring lion, and woe to the luckless employe upon whom he casts an evil eye. The result is that the whole place 1s reeking vide discontent. I verily believe itis this discontent which finds terrible utterance in the fires which from tune to tithe consume 1Vhiteley's goods." Courtship lain Marriage. Front rhe C'tcrelaltd 1'luiarlculr,.

C. Knight sugar refinery in this city yesterday. The vessel through the hull of which this sea monster's weapon had pen- etrated is the bank O1'nen, which came to this port front Santot, Brazil, by the way of the Barbadoes. The baric ix stanchly hndt Norwoainr� ll'afb and the plair}c,l to her hull aro even harder than Attlericau oak, While her cargo of sugar was being unloaded at 'the refinery wharf a long black objeet, like the point of an enormous bafonets teas discovered thrust ten inches into One of the hogsheads of sugar, so Gamey impaling it that some difficulty was experienced in getting the hogshead free from the vessel's bottom. The end of the sword looked like a large marlin spike, and all at- tempts to dislodge it tvere fruitless. A close examination, however, proved that the object was the "sword" of a sword -fish which had been driven through the planking of the bark's 1101l. The lioint of tht' "sword" which projected into -the vessel's hold was as hard Rs flint. The only ,weapon which made any im- pression upon it was an axe, with Which the end was finally broken off and taken on deck, Whet,': it Was exhibited to the sailors and the tevedore,+. 1' From the itcauults of the Yrew% and the bark's officers it seams that the fish m031 have struck the vess,,d1 Year the region of the equa- torial calm. The mate says that while the bark Was moving along very slowly, with scarcely a ripple disturbing the surface of t he ocean, one calor day in M,iy, a terrific shock was experienced which almost threw the vessel aback and hurled some of the crew off their feet. The incident caused considerable excitement on board, and it was feared that a hidden rock had been struck until the captain looked over the starboard quarter, whence the shock appeared to have come, and saw an enormous fish jest disappearing beneath the waves. Until the "sword" was discovered yesterday it was supposed that the bark had struck a dead or sleeping whale. This instance of the force with which the sword -fish can strike an object is one of the most remarkable ever reported. A specimen of planking which has been deposited in the British Museum in London R9 a great cariosity shrove the sword of one of these fish, three feet hong, which rid pierced ten inches of wood, The sword found in the Ornen had evidently been driven with almost twice i.he force with which the specimen In the 11rItleh Museum had been irnpnlled.
