INSANE-Geo. Whittaker, an insane person, was brought from Brussels on Sunday last by Constable Kippen, to be placed in Gaol for safe keeping. Through some hocus-pocus work no war- rant of commitment arrived with him, and the services of Mayor Horton had to be called into requisition before ad- mission to the "stone house" could be obtained. Since his incarceration Whit- taker has been staking it lively for the gaol officials, as he is unremitting in his efforts to knock his brains out -if such a thing can be done. The Gaol is no place for unfortunates of the Whittaker kind. We are in receipt of a circular from the Celebration Committee of the I. O. 0: F., of Brantford, which gives us an account of the provision being made to entertain the grand encampment and grand lodge on the second week of Au- gust next.

At the close of the entertainment Mayor Horton made a few felicitiona re- marks, in which a high tribute was paid Mrs. Fletcher, the superintendent, and her assistants, the Misses Goode, for the manner in which' their excellent school was conducted. The pupils were evi- dently being taught in a style which reflected credit upon the teachers, and the entertainment just closed showed conclusively that they had one and all availed themselves of the advantages- offered dvantagesoffered to them at "Riverdale.." He trusted that they would makegood use of their vacation, so that when they again returned to their studies, they would be able to prosecute every branch with vigor, and give evidence at any future midsummer ending of as marked progress and thoroughness of education- al development as was observed hers to -night. An enjoyable evening _ was spent by all who witnessed the proceedings, and everyone present departed fully satisfied that Mrs. Fletcher and the Misses Goode have succeeded in making "Riverdale" a model private school. l'eafravw Fa1DAT, June 24.
