A NEW AND GOOD PROCEDURE. —
By a new provision in the Dower Act
power is given to the %Judge of the
County Court to bar the dower of a
wife living apart from her husband
without cause, or confined in an In-
sane Asylum, in the lands of 'her
husband. The old procedure was
compllat!ated, tedious and .expensive,`
requiring the machinery of the Court --
of Chancery. Mr Manning applied
to Judge Toms on Saturday last, un-
der the new act, for an order barring.
the dower of a wife incapable of join-
ing in a deed, In granting the order
His"Honor took stets to protect>the,
interest of the wile, and fixed the
value of her dower in the lands.
What formerly took sometimes:months
was disposed of in a few days and at
very little cost.

•Ho3IE CIRCLE: Theattendance at
these gatherings ie growing larger
each week, showing an inereasin, in-
terest, which we hope will be kept
up, and still grow, as the season goes
on. The programme last Friday
evening was good throughout, parti-
cularly the singing. Mr Perry gave
a short and instructive synopsis , of
the play of Macbeth . from Shake-
speare, the study of which is to he
taken up by the members of the Cir-
cle, commencing this (Friday) 'Min-
ing. " The programme was as follows:
Singing by the choir, reading, -Mr
Hilliard ; duet, Miss s Depew and
E. Rumball • recitati n, Miss Wash-
ingon; solo, Mies Wil on; duet, Misses
G. and I, Boles ; rea ing, Mr tooth ;
solo, Mr Oakes. -
On Sunday morning -the Rev J.
Edge, occupied the pulpit of the,,Rat-
tenbury St. Methodist church''' and
'delivered an interesting 'and benefi-
dial sermon on "Lord increase our
faith." His description of the con-
trast between the way• Christ settled
disputes and the way Peter had been
-in the habit of settling and of seeing
them settled in his former fisherman's
life, and which called forth the words
of the text, was very effective. He
said faith was confidence in truth,
confidence in some one, trust in the
testimony of others, that it was nec-
ceesary to society and necessary to
please God, and illustrated and en •
larged each point. To 'make faith
practical he recommended thorough
biblical study, asking if anyone could
read the 18th of Kings, the Psalms
and the gospels and not have greater
faith. During collection Mr Sibley
and Mise E. Rumball Rang that 'rand
anthem from Elrcells collection,
"Prayer for the wanderers," With
great effect.
