THE CREDIT Svarsx.-In his address upon the powers and duties of the press before the Northern Indiana Editorial Association last week at Wabash, Mr. Richard Smith, Editor of The Cincinnati Gazette, speaking of the evils of the credit system said: "When The Gazette Company changed from the credit to the cash in advance system there were $80- 001) due on the books from weekly sub- scribers alone that had been accumu- lating for a third of a century. Of that amount not 80,000 cents were collected. We employed a man and furnished him with a good horse and sent him off' on a collecting tour. In six months the horse died, the saddle and bridle were pawned for keep, and the man returned a con- siderable balance against the Company. We sold the books for old paper and called those credits lost." An action was tried at the Division Court at St. Thames on Tuesday, which must possess considerable interest for business men.

Dr. Lire Wan returning from a funeral on Thursday afternoon , his horse was startled at the crossing by the approach of a train, and started on a run up Kingston street to theSquare. Fortunately the rev. gentle- man managed to keep the vehicle right aide up during his rapid trip.

R., boys of Stratford has gone to hi. death while in the discharge of his duty. John McPhee was formerly a brakeman residing here; latterly he has been employed in the Fort Gratiot yard. Early last Thursday morning -the last he was to see on earth -he was on hand to work. His presence was required in another part of the yard, and in reach- ing it, he required to cross the track junction. One of his feet caught in the frog, and, notwithstanding terrible ef- forts on hi. part, a fast train swooped down upon the unfortunate man. He was horribly mutilated, and only surviv- ed the shock one hour -all the time suf- fering excruciating agonies. He was a genial, good-natured gentleman in life; with a smile and a joke for everyone who came into contact with hint. The employees of the road were very and sincerely starry to hear of the sad taking off of their well -beloved fellow -laborer. His people live in Forest, and his body was conveyed thither for interment. - [ Herald. The W11Nw. The return match, played at Seaforth un Friday, last by the club of that town and an eleven from Goderich, resulted in an easy victory for the Seaforth players. The game was a fair one, and the splen- did conduct of the Seaforth men took away all sting of defeat. ( fur cricketers are loud in their praises of their oppon- ents' treatment of then[ both in the field and in the more sociable means of enjoy- ment. They were treated like gentlemen by gentlemen. In theeveningthe cantata of "The Haymakers," given under the auspices of the Seafurth cricket club, was largely attended, and after paying all ex- penses a handsome sum was cleared by the club.

The steamer Eclipse was detained at Windsor for a few days for neglecting to have her life -posts on board. A Port Huron paper says the steamers Evening Star and Ward "have a red hot race to Detroit every Monday, Wednes- day and Friday." Most people these day. are not , much enamored of "red hot races" between steamboats, but it is well that those who are fond of that sort of thing may know when they can get it. The Marine Inspector detained the steamer Algerian at Kingston on Thurs- day evening of last week, because she carried life -boats of insufficient size. The matter was referred to the Minister of Marine, who allowed the steamer to con- tinue her tap. The company owning her will, however, have to comply with the regulation& A new propellor wheel in which the fans are dove -tailed in the hub has been invented by Mr. Davis of Wolfe Island. The great advantage possessed by this is that in case a fan is broken, a new one can be substituted without requiring the boat to be' hauled out, and besides only a portion instead of a whole wheel own replace the injured part. SARNIA, July 11. -Captain Birnie and the engineer of the steamer Asia, of the North-West Transportation Company, arrived here to -day, bringing word of the sinking of the steamer in Lake George, near Sault Sta. Marie, by col- lision with the barge Helena. The Asia lies in about twelve feet of water, her bow and upper works being clear. She is loaded with wheat. The books and papers were saved. No lives were lost. BOTaaORD's ELEVATOR BURNaD.-On Friday morning the captain of a pacing tug noticed that flames were issuing from Botsford's elevator, Fort Gratiot. and promptly gave the alarm. Every effort was made by the tiremen and others to save the building but without avail, as it was totally consumed along with part of the railway track in the vicinity. There were about 24,000 'ushels of grain of various kinds in the building at the time, the greater part o1 which was destroyed. The loss is estimated at $40,000 on which there was $25,000 insurance. The Messrs. Botsford intend rebuilding in time for the fall trade. There was no one in the building when the fire broke out, but it is supposed to have originated in the engine -room. ARRIV.(L4.
