Donn You Envy L -K t The editor's life is one of uninterupt- ed and unalloyed bliss. He has notla- ing to do, aualres plenty of money and is a privileged character everywhere,. At his tables are opened the costliest wines and guests are the elite of socie- ty. His wife, if he has one, is always a lovely woman who knows how to make his home a heaven. IIis bills though enormous are always promptly met, and on all banks he has unlimited' credit. :No one who owes hint need be in a hurry to pay up, sats he don't need the money and would only spend it for luxuries anyway. The old idea that editor's are poor is a ehesnut. The fact is they are rnonied men and laugh at people who think them poor. All editors go to heaven. Not one ever went to -the other place. These are facts. magistrates Court. On Wednesday, Miss Ellen Hicks, daughter of Daniel Hicks, of Usborne, appeared before Magistrate Clarke charged with slapping one Edward Small, a blind man of the same town- ship, in the face an Sunday last, 18th; inst., while returning from church. Evidence was given for the plaintiff by Miss Mary Cornish and for the defen- dant by Mr Hicks. After hearing all the evidence, the magistrate fined the defendant $6 and costs, amounting in all to 1610.50. The affair seems to have grown out of some personal spite and has resulted as above: Personal hard feelings have been existing between Hicks and his neighbors since a recent; law suit about some sheep in which Hicks came out second best. We are of the opinion that the defendant will be a little more careful in whom she slaps. and not undertake to impose on a blind man or those unable to help themselves. rendered some choice music which en- livened the proceedings. €'li1toa ('h $.3 Exeter.

Mr. G. H.

Though the Johnstown disaster oc- curred more than two months since,the interest of the public in so remarkable• an event has not ceased to be active. H. S. Goodspeed & Co., of New York, have just issued a very complete and richly pictorial history of the event, which is a work of the deepest interest. and power. No reader will care to lay wide this thrilling narrative unfinish- ed. In the world's horrible records of evil wrought by the untamed forces of nature, few catastrophes have been more heart sickening. The fearful loss of life, the vast waste of property, the great interruption to business, destroy- ing estroying the complex machinery which fed so many thousands and contributed to the interests of the whole land, are hard to rnasch. Death and ruin take a thousand shapes, but rarely have as- sumed a guise so horrible as that in which they rushed down on the .people of Conemaugh Malley. The recordcan- not fail to be of perennial interest, and to stir the hearts of all who read it for the next generation to come, for sucha catastrophe, mercifully, comes but' n�e in a century, -if so often. Enough time has now elapsed to enable the proper verification of the facts to be made,and a careful and studied statement to be given to the public worthy, of so start- lin; a subject. Any hurried and hap- hazard narrative of an . event which. stands so unique in our history, is far from doing it even partial justice. The author has given us in this book a re- cord both vigorous and accurate, and every reader should have the work in. his. hands. The book is octavo hand- somely printed and bound, and con- tains 522 pages,embelhshed`with forty- eight fine - full page iliustiatious. Agents are wanted. H, S. Goodspeed & "Co. pay all the duty.
