An incident of rather a peculiar nature took place on the premises of Mr. Elijah Jory, 2nd concession of Ste- phen, on Friday last, it being a young calf which was being devoured alive by an old sow. She had her victim se- cured in a mud 'hole, and while there one of Mr. Jory's daughters was on her way to the barn for the purpose of milking, when something came to her notice in a mud hole, and on ,closer ex- amination found it was a poor calf, be- side it the old sow, which was feeding on its prey. She at onee summoned help and the poor beast was freed from its captive,almost lifeless and minus its tail which was eaten off, Noc.oubt the calf will come around again all right.

TheGeneral Manager •of the Bank of Commerce has issued a circular to the several agencies of 'the bank instruct ing them that on and after the 7th of May next bills of the defunct City Bank, RoyaliCanadian Bank and Consolidated Bank will not be received. Up to that date, however, bills on any of these bankSswi11 be receive or y?r anged at par at any of the agencies of the Bank of Commerce but after•that date these bills will"°be worthless. 'If,'; therefore, any of our readers have a "long stock- ing well stowed" and•"laid away, it would be well'for therm to look over their cash at once and if they find any of the bills of City, Royal Canadian or Consolidated Banks in their piles to have them exchanged. Good Outlook. The outlook for spring, trade all over the country is very cheering, and Tor- onto wholesalers expect a decided im- provement all along the line. The a- mount of wheat coming out is far in excess of what was expected two mon the ago. It had• been thought that theree was very little left on the country, but those who had it kept dark, and farmers held on because of low . prices. Nov it is being delivered all over On- tario in large quantitios,and especially so in the district around. Toronto. It is all being taken and. prises kept firm,so that things after all don't look bad. The number of failurest-ince January first has been about-equal.to those last year at the'same period,` but they have not been of such importance, nor have there been so many homily ones. The tqtal amount of liabilities is consider- ably less than a year ago., Council- Proceedings. The council met pursuant to adjourn- ment at the Town Hall, Exeter, on 5th April, 1800. All present.
