He leaving ?nen a director in this Company for, s4veral years, we deem it a duty and a pleasure to make honorable mention f his faithfulness in the interests of 'the Company by his regular attend- ance at the Board meetings and close application to business while there, and also as exercising a constant, bcaliby influence among the general public ; and that a copy of this reso- lution be seat to the widow and be- mired family. It was signed by Jas. Edgar, as president and T. F. Miller, as secretary. Newbridge. (ORM= OUT LAST WSW.) We have about as hard a settlement of people to please as could possibly ' be found in the county of Huron, as far as weather is concerned, for when it is cold and freezing some one wants warmer weather and when it is rain- ingthey are not satisfied- even then. I think if each one had the making of the weather it would be rather a promiscuous affair and even then they • could not rest satisfied.—Doth side - roads and concessions are beginning to feel the influence of the warmer weather,sonic places the `roads' are 'bare 'and travellers are sometimes greeted with some very shrill music as • the sleigh touches the gravel on the . roads. -141r. C. Hacking, of Listowel, was IT to our busy little city not long ago ou business.—Our genial host o£ the Farmers' Hotel of Fordwicli has received orders to present himself be. fore the august presence of the Police Magistrate to answer,forthe violation .of the Scott .Act on Wednesday at Wroxeter.—Two sleigh•loadc, styling themselves temperance workers, passed through here on Monday evening last. As they stopped but a short distance from, the hotel for some time it was thought. they were being treated to ''pop". Their mission was to organize .ry\•+another lodge somewhere on. the 2nd of plowyick which they no doubt did, .as there was enough of theta to start two or more lodges.—A system of journalistic warfare is being carried on between one, of the leading spirits of Fordwich and two burly antagonists, .one of whom furnishes the facts, or what he • calls facts while the other ;puts them together fox publication in the Gorreo Vidette which published in a late issue a lot of nonsensical "rot" which was not fit to be read let alone 'published in a paper which is placed before the enlightened public as a journal of facts. We trust the war will soon be over as it does not reflect touch credit on the contestants. Franco has embodied in its liquor law a clause to the effect that every person who may be condemned twice by the police for open drunkenness will be held incapable of voting, of elec• tive eligibility, and of being named for the jury orally public office. $OE.N.
