This Presbytery met pro re nata
at Knox church, Brussels, on Mon-
day, April 15th. Rev. D. B, McRae,
Moderator pro tem; Rev, J. Ross, B.
A., Clerk pro tem. The resignation
of Rev, David Millar, of the pastorate
of the congregation of Knox church,
Brussels, was taken up for consider-
ation. In answer to citation, the
session and congregation were rep-
resented by commissions for their in-
terests. Mr. Millar signified his ad-
herence to his resignation. On
motion, it was carried, that in view
of the financial situation of . the con_
gregation, the Presbytery regret
that they feel compelled to accept
the resignation of the pastorate of
Knox church by Mr. Millar, the
resignation to take effect on this 15th
day of April, 1895. In parting with
Mr. Millar the Presbytery would ex-
press their appreciation of the ser-
vices which Mr. Millar has rendered
among them, his readiness to help
when called upon, and the brotherly
and cordial relations whichhave ex-
isted between them. They would
express, in parting, their prayer that
God would bless him in the new
sphere of labor to which he goeS and
assure him of their continued interest
in his welfare and work. The Clerk
was instructed to give a certificate
of transference to Lindsay Presby-
tery to Mr. Millar. Rev. D. D. Mc-
Rae was appointed interim Moderator
of the session and was instructed to
declare the congregation vacant on
21st inst. Mr. Alex. Gardiner and
Rev. G. Ballantyne were appointed
commissioners to the General Assem-
bly, the latter in room of Rev. D.

The Advance ln Cattle.
It seems clear, that the • advance in
prices of cattle and meat so notice-
able lately is due, says Bradstreet's,
to. shortage in supply. The low
prices that prevailed the past three
years made it unprofitable for farm-
ers and ranchmen to carry large
numbers. The drouth last year and
high prices of feed necessitated
unusually close marketing. Hard
times also caused free selling. The
result is being realized. The pros-
pective supply in the west is 25 to 40
per cent. short of last year, and will
remain so for at least two years, as it
requires from.two to three years to
fully develop a prime steer. That
there is a marked shortage is appar-
ent in a reduction in receipts of
cattle at Chicago, St. Louis, Kansas
City and Omaha since January 1 of
275,000 as compared with last year,
and 315,000 from the first three
months in 1893. The decrease is
estimated to be equal to 175,000,000
pounds of dressed beef. The
slaughtering at the points named
since January 1, is equal , to 9,11 per
cent. and receipts to 14 per cent.
The question is one of supply and
demand. Prices of live cattle are
$1.60 per 100 pounds higher than
last year, but are 25e tower than the
top this year, and $1 higher than the
low point this year. Dressed beef is
'4c higher than last year on the
- average. Butchers' cattle are in-
quired for so freely, owing to the
high prices of pritne steers, that the
supply is too small to go around.
Prices ara the highest since 1885. If
cattle were in the country they would
be marketed, as recent prices have
never failed to bring them out.
There are no indications of any com-
bination.

rather light, which has had the ef-

• was firmer. Good grain fed year-

port cattle buyers were looking out
fbr a. few head to -day; but saw none
of the right kind, and they were
unsupplicd. In hogs there was a
firmer feeling. As high as 5le per
lb. weighed off the cars, was paid for
- two choice lots of long, lean bacon
hogs, the ruling prices for that kind
being from $4 to $5 per cwt. -All
kinds of hogs were firmer. tores
were fetching from $4.70 to $4.80
per cwt., weighed off the cars; thick
fat hogs, $4.80 to $4.90 and $5 per

and the feeling was barely steady.
The general range of prices was
from $3.50 to $4.50 per head, with
selected veals going up to $6, $7 and
$8 per head.
Montreal, April 15.—There was a
decided contrast between the live
stock • markets to -day and those a
week ago. To -day's business at both
the east and: west end was practically
at a standstill and prices sagged con-
siderably. In fact there was really
no price es tablished for cattle, the
purchases being so small. The total
receipts for the week ending April 13
at the O. P. R. yards were:—Cattle,
237 head; sheep, 198 head; hogs, 619
head, and calves, 198 head. Butch-
ers' paid 3c to 4-tc at the East End
Abattoir for small lots of cattle, that
is, of course, the fancy stoek. Com-
mon stock and culls were neglected
at from 2c to 2/e. A few lambs
were offered and they sold from $2
to $5. Calves were very quiet at $2
to $8. Prices realized at the Point
were a shade lower than the fore-
- going, for both cattle and calves.
