Tickets will be issued, either on the 14th or good until the 24th, at $2.65 for the round trip. barracks on Friday afternoon and evening.

Last Saturday ducks were offered at 70 cents a pair, which is as high as Toronto market, and higher prices were asked for other articles than the real market value.

While the Listowel people 'Still feel very keenly the' way in which they have been treated by the Stationing Committee, they were willing to com- promise matters in order to effect a peaceable settlement. When the trouble first arose,the members of the official board signed an agreement binding them to a unanimous choice of a minister,and as Ran of this num- ber were opposed to the Rev Mr Nu- gent (more because he was sent there than ay personal grounds) the only alternative for the Special Committee was to propose a change, which is as follows:-W.,E. Treleaven, a young unordained minister, who has been as- sisting Rev Dr Griffin, of Stratford, to relieve Rev F. E. Nugent, Rev Mr Nugent to go to Gorrie, and the Gor- rie minister to go to Bluevale, where a vacancy has occurred since the ministers were stationed. The de- parture of Mr Treleaven will leave Dr Griffin without an assistant. This. change will not take place until after the first of Octobee, and it may not even then.
