The Rev. Dr. Cochrane, in the course
of a letter to the Lundeen .4(ire rtiser
touching the recant disturbances at Rat I
Portage snd toe present state of public
eentintent there, says :
That big load of hay drawn in by a
tiheppardton man has been eclipsed by
one built by J. H. Barker and taken to
his stable. The Garbraid load was
eleven inches longer. Joseph Morris
did the pitching.
A genuine "rabbit" ai)peared in the
harvest field of Mr. Morns one day last
week. The workers chased the lung -
eared animal for about ton minutes, until
a Bing of the pitchfork, given with the
precision of r. spearman of old, pinned
the rabbit at a distance of about twenty
feet

John >ticPhersun and Mrs. James Mc-
Pherson, of Puslinch, were visiting
friends here tact week.
At Rat Portage 1 suet with leading
peen of both Manitoba and Ontario pro-
tlivities. The eiening before my arrival
a meeting of the ratepayers had been
held, at which, by • large majority, it
was decided to seek incorporation under
Ontario. Both parties admitted freely
that fuU juitioe had been done them,and
that representatives of both Provinces
had been allowed ample opportunity to
state their case without interruption.
While those who favoured the claim of
Manitoba maintain that the mere Incor-
poration of Rat Portage under Ontario
dues not dispose finally of the boundary
gnestion, they freely admit that it indi-
cates pretty conclusively public aeuti.-
mont as favourable to Ontario rather
thau Manitoba. And, indeed, the pet -
ple of Manituua are very indifferent re-
garding the matter. They have already
more territory than they can well govern
or maintain as they would like, and the
addition of the disputed territory only
means fresh financial burdens.
Mr. Norquay himself, in his (published
address two years ago, frankly stated
that this boundary question was nut a
matter regarding which he or the people
of Manitoba need concern themselves or
Dome into collision with the authorities
of the appear
Dominion oeasson for a change Ontario. Nor of
there apps$ Y
this opinion. This somewhat sharp and
unexpected conflict between the Provin-
ces will not be useless if it hastens a set-
tlement of the boundary question, which
cannot but lead to endless trouble if left
longer as it now stands.
With eh due loyalty to the Crown,
there are nut a few who feel that after
the matter has been submitted to an im-
partial tribune of arbitrators there ought
notj)e further'appeal to a Privy Council.
where decisions on such questions, what-
ever party may be favored. will not car-
ry so much weight as the opinion of men
conversant with the country and indi-
vidually interested in its prosperity.
It is admitted by all that whatever
improvements have ba.ln made in Rat
Portage, and a•'latet•er measures have
been inaugurated towards the setting up
of Government, are due not to the Do-
minion, but to the Ontario authorities.
The court -house, and lock-up, and all
the resident -officials ere the servants of
Ontario. The Ontario Government did
not certainly do all it ought, and doubt•
less this has caused some dissatisfaction,
but the Dominion Government has done
next to nothing. For the beat interests tint you are already a subscriber. please
of this whole section, and that Manitoba neo tale adeerttsement to someone whc does
and Ontario may remain on terms of the
sincerest friendship, it is earnestly to be
hoped that further complications may be
avoided, and a wise settlement ar rived
at of this disputed territory.
Mrs. A. D. Cameron is prostrated

The heavy rains and hail of late have
damaged the spring crops badly.
A number of the fanners have been
threshing out their fall wheat, and are
greatly discouraged at the sample and
poor turn out:
The little boys and girls in passing
alone the street this week with a bundle
of books below their arms seem to have
g, pad countenance on, in thinking they
have to pass another period of daily toil
in the old fortification north of the vil-
lage.
It is our painful duty to record the
death of Peter McDonald of this place,
which occurred on the 13th, inflalnnta-
tion of the bowels being the immediate
cause of his death. He was interred in
the Dungannon cemetery,whither the re-
mains were followed by a large number
of people, showing the respect they bore
for a person worthy of esteem cut off in
the prime of life. His young widow hu
the heartfelt sympathy of the community
in the severe trial that has been allotted
to her an early in life.
\Ve also record the death of Miss me -
Pherson, which took place at her broth-
er's residence, near St. Helens, on the
morning of the 20th inst., after a long
period of suffering, which was borne with
Christian resignation, although uncon-
scious for a number of days before her
death. She was always willing to assign
her lot for fairer heavens than earth
could afford. She was buried in St.
Helene cemetery on the 21st.

from the Hamilton Tribune :
"The Mill and the Still" is the subject
of a picture in this week's Harpers
Weeldy which we would hang in every
home in the land. It is magnificently
drawn by Jessie Shepherd, and tolls its
own story impressively. In the center a
sheaf of wheat divides the picture into
two sections. From one side of the sheaf
rises the beautifully -draped figure of
Temperance handing a loaf of tread to a
happy -looking family. A mother with a
babe boy lying on her knees, a little girl
reaching for the bread, and the well-
dressed, intelligent -looking father seated
at the table partaking of his bounteous
meal, are the principal figures. Froth
the other side of the sheaf rises the grins
figure of Death, emptying from a bottle
held in its extended bony arms its blight-
ing contents, appropriately depicted as
destroying tire. On the bare floor lies
prone the form of a wretched man -
either insensible or dead. A ragged
mother with the look of despair upon
her face is seated on a bare box, while
at her feet in the most wretched of rag-
ged garbs are two children -a boy and a
girl. "The Mill and the Still" is indeed
an appropriate title. It is one of the
most beautifully designed and impressive
temperance pictures we have

drawn through his hand, between the

gash, and although every precaution was
taken to prevent lockjaw, it proved en -

great agony.
