Howson, of the 12th iglu. of Hullett, peacefully passed away on Sunday. De- ceased had been a resident of this town- ship for about 25 years, and was a mem- ber of the municipal council for several of these. He was of a very genial tem- perautent, and enjoyed the confidence and esteem of all who knew or had any deaiiogs with him. tie was a very useful and :soave than, when in the possession of health, and will be greatly mimed in the township. He leaven a wife and six children to mourn his death, three sons and three daughters. MUNICIPAL- It Into been reported around for conte time that Mr. McMillan would not again accept the reeveshio, and a good deal of talk is indulged in as to who will be his successor. Some have expressed the determination to bring Mr. Humphrey Snell again into harness, he having 'served the township faithfully for SO many years, should he be willing to accept. Mr, John Mason, the present worthy deputy reeve, will also most like- ly be a candidate. The contest between these two would be a warm one, because both are well known all over the Own - ship, and have many friends among its residents. There is not likely to be any other change In the Council, except the nomination of some one to fill the vac- ancy caused by the death of Mr. Howson. —[New Era. 011141!!11.

STRATHROY, Nor. 14.—Quite an ex- citement has arisen here over the sud- den departure from town of three young lads named Frank Cruickshanks, Charlie Dingman and Fred Kinder, aged in the vicinity of 15 and 16. They left with- out warning on Thursday, 2nd Nov., taking with them, as was afterwards learned, two guns and three revolvers. It was thought they went away on a hunting frolic, but their long -continued absence is causing considerable anxiety on the part of their parents, and it is the subject of much • conversation about town. It is needless to say the parents of the boys anxiously desire their re - The Presbytery of Huron met in Willis Church, Clinton, on Tuesday, 14th inst., and with the exception of a short interval at noon, continued in session until 6 p. m. The meeting was opened with devotional exercises, con- ducted by the Moderator, the ltev. A. i Stewart. The minutes of last regular meeting, and of three special meetings, were read and confirmed. At the first of these epeeist meetings, held at Kippen, un Oct. 3, Mr. S. A. Carriere, a graduate of the Montreal Presbyterian College, was examined and licensed to preach. At the second, held at Kippen, on Oct 17th, a call from the Grand Bend was presented to Mr. Carriere. The Pres- bytery having sustained the call, Mr. Corriere accepted it, and arrangementa were made for his ordination and induc- tion. At the third, held at Grand Bend on Oct. 31st, Mr Carriere was ordained and inducted. The examination of the Statistical Returns for the past year, was delayed till the next regular meeting, in order to allow the Financial Committee to pre- pare si suitable report, to be presented in connection with the examination. A remit from the General Assembly respecting the method of appointing Standing Committees, was discussed elapse by clause, and with one slight exception its recommendations were ap- proved of. It was decided to hold a Sabbath School convention at Egmondville on Januar, 17th, 1883, and a programme for the convention was prepared. The Committee appainted to audit the Treasurer's books, reported that the ac- counts had been correctly and carefully kept, and that there was a balance of $21.141 on hand. Messrs. Jackson and Kernighen, of Manchester congregation, complained that the Session of Manchester had taken no action upon certain charges which had been preferred against them, and that they had thus been deprived of an opportunity of clearing themselves. The session was instructed to investi- gate the charges without delay, and to report the result to the Presbytery at its next meeting. Dr. TJre and three members of the Goderich Session were attervards appointed to assist the Man- chester Session in the investigation. A memorial from Mr. John Jackson was presented, asking information re- specting an alleged union of the Sessions of Manchester and Smith's Hill, by act of Presbytery some years ago. A carr fol examination of the records disclosed the fact that though such a union had been s, it had never been con- summated. The Presbytery, however, was unanimow in the opinion that Mr. Pritchard, the minister of the two con- gtegakans, had all along acted in good faith, and under the conviction that the two Sessions had been actually united. It was elan agreed to confirm the pro. ceedinge of these Sessions while acting under the impression that the union had taken place. The Presbytery then adjourned to meet again the third Tuesday in Janu- ary, at Egmnndville. Seavxsa.—The union services that have been held for the past two weeks, in the C. M. and B. C. churches are dill going on with good success so far and prospects of better. A Bina.— It is reported that a wild bear has been seen in this neighborhood lately.
