Duncan MaLsuohlin has leased the 75 -acre farm belonging to An- thony Sample, iu Morris, for 4L term of yearn. On Friday last a four year•old son of MrJ.R. Williams, Gorrie, fell into a pail of boiling water and got pretty badly scalded Frank Byrigs jr., has bought a bush farm on -'the 5th con. of Grey, and has erected a house and stable on it, he has a gang of men logging and choppinffon it. Miss Jessie, youngest daughter of Mr. W. Mitchell of Turnberry, goes toGrandin, Dakota, thisweek where she hes two sisters residing. She is likely to engage in teaching there. Lucinda Hagen, whilst engaged housecleaning atWingham afew days ago,fell from a step ladder, breaking her collar bone and sustaining other severe external and internal in- juries. The following appointment has been made :ly the Ontario Gover- ment.: Francis Patterson, Township of Turnberry, County of Huron,to be ballad the Eighth Division Court of the County of Huron, in the place of John Snell, deceased. —.The friends of Rev. ,A Y. Hartley will be pleased to learn that he has reached Huntsville, Alabama, safely, and reports his health slightly im- proved. Huntsville is noted, Mr H: says, for its excellent health giv- ing qualities and bracing atmos- phere. Mrs Mary A. MoGlade, who through force of circumstances has for some years been dependent on town charity and the help of friends, died at Goderich on Tuesday worn- ing at the age of 83 years. She was a woman,of superior intelligence and charater, far above the circum- stances which attended her latter years. A boy named Hunt had a narrow escape from a terrible death at Gode- rich on Friday last,through hanging on to a hay rack with some other boys. The rack tipped over pinning Hunt underneath it, and the horses taking fright dashed along for near- ly two blocks before the driver could stop them, when the tet rifled young- ster was released. A football meeting was held in the school house Leadbury on Mon- day, Feb. 27, at which a Football Association was formed and named "The Maitland Rural Public School Football Association." The foot- ball teams belonging to the said As- sociation will playas follows: Brussels vs. Walton, in Brussels; No. 1 Grey vs. No. 2. Grey, on No. 1 grounds; Leadbury vs: No. 9, Mortis, played in Leadbury, winners vs. • Winthrop in Leadbury; No. 6, vs. No. 4, Mc- Killop, winners vs, No. 2, McKil- lop, played on No. 6, McKillop, grounds. All matches named abov e to be played on Saturday, March 10th. Should any match be a ti e there will be another match played on the following Saturday. - A rather amusing scene was which occurred at a farm house near .Cred. iton one evening last week. At the conclusion ofa wood bee the party gathered at the house and soon all were heartily engaged in tripping the fantastic. Of course on such oc- casoins refreshments are quite neces- sary, and after the brat dance a cider barrel was tapped and the cider bronght forward, A. few glasses were partaken of by each one the results of which were soon visible and CP' arrespondent is quite certain that- ew of the assemblage for a tin e knew upon which end—head or foot --they were (lancing. The fact of the matter is, the cider was strong enough to drive a street car. MONTREAL LIVE STOCK MAPKET TORONTO LIVE STOCK MARKET The supply. of butchers cattle' has been rather small of late,more especially good beeves which are steadily advanc. • ing in .price ; common stock are also higher in price than they have been for nearly a year past. The best cattle were sold -at from 44.3 to 5o per lb., and pretty good animals at 4c to 44c do.,with common stock at 310 to 4c, and leanish beasts, including milkmen's strippers, from 3c to 310 per lb. Calves were scarce and -good veals bring pretty high prices or from $8 to $12 each, with com- mon calves from $3 to $5 eaoh. There were not many mutton critters offered and sheep sold at about 4ic per lb.,with good yearlings about 5o do. The horse trade has been unusually active of late, and the shipments to the United States unprecedently large. During the past week there were shipped from here to the United States 332 horses, costing $34,- 131,or an average of $102.80 each. The highest priced lot were 11 horses, which cost $1,500 and the lowest priced lot were 20 horses, cost 81,755. tu8 g , .4 skue-zCROYAL. i9Mi eAK�N POWDER Abeorutely Pure.

Y,1 Receipts of stock on the local market continue light, offerings were twenty- six cars, in which there 100 sheep and lambs and 156 hogs. Last week's re- ceipts were 782 cattle,144 sheep and 162 hogs: Butchers' cattle ruled higher Tuesday. Demand was good and supply light. Stock of meat in butchers' hands are pretty much reduced, and they were disposed to buy more freely than for some days past. They have some diffi- culty in obtaining any advance from retail butchers, and the latter find con. siderable objection to. paying higher figures for the live animals. They had to do so to -day, however;but they did it with very bad grace. Values showed a gain of about t to Fa per ib on a week ago. Picked lots of butchers' sold at 4 to 41c per Ib, and choice loads at equal to 3i to no; common to good at 3 to 31c per lb. Everything was cleared out. Part of the offerings went to Montreal. Choice cattle are scarce, the bulk of the offerings being medium quality. Ex- port cattle dull. Demand light and only a few bulls 'and oxen offered. Sales were made mostly at 31 to 4c. A few sales of steers were made at $4.- 131. Milch cows and springers quiet. Offerings light and not much demand. Sheep and lambs firm and in good de- mand.
