On Monday week Mr: J. R. Miller

report to ths school Loardj and sup "•
ple.mented-it-with-.a speacn of. great,
length and bitterness. ' At the- con
clusion of. .tlie- .Inspector’s - address
certain members of the board wan ted
to discuss the report with a view to
its immediate adoption, and only for
Mr.- Swanson advocating fair pT«y
ftfiopfed it would have been. Through
this intervention the board, after uti.
animo'usly . reque&tjpjs; the principal
to reply, adjourned till Wednesday.
On Wednesday the board again met
arid went Into a committee of the
wholeto discuss’thelnspector’s re
pOFt/clausV by 0tause?’.Mr,T)TilTer
again read his report, after which he
read it-'flT by. IF. After the adoption.,
.of--the' first- clause Mr.. Buchanan;
drew attention to the fact' that Mr.

Mr. Embury then read his communi-

llcuddy, seconded by Mr. Crabb,
moved “that on a account of its
abusive nature Mr. Embury’s answer
be not received.” .A long'discussion
arose on this point, some contending-
that aS'the |board bad requested a
reply : the., board .coulil only .refer,

ever refused to receive, it. On this
point there is great miBapprehensoh,
it being rumored , that those who
voted against.its reject ion agree with-
it in its entirety, wh'ile the .truth is
they only asked that it should be dis-,
cussed like Mr. Miller's, clause by’
clause, and,aS in his crso, objection^
able words or sentences expunged or

On-Mr. Embury’s replv two notable

Mr. Jaiiies Duncan,
Dear Sir,—We, .the members of
thh JRiiilroad 'Hall Debating Society,
knowing tljat you will shortly remove
frbm our midst;- cannot,allow- you to
depart without in some way express-
ing the higli regard and esteem which
we have always entertained for you,
As President of our Society you were
unremitting in your ettoyts to further
its interests, and to your tact in
quelling at the outset, by some-.w^ll;
timed remarks, anything that was. iff
any way likely to lead to a dispute,
we largely ascribe the good- feeling
that always' prevailed among the
membersj' and cqnsequently tjie sue1-
cess which' attended the Society for
so many years- We desire to ex'pfess-
‘our thanks you for tlie services’
which you’re dered the. Society and
the deep’interest which you took in
the welfare of its members; and for
the seeming, interest which you mani
fested,' and" the' help -which you
always gave tlie. younger members
in all of their entertainments. Not
only as President of our Club shall
we miss you, but the absence of a
sympathising friend, an obliging
"neighbor—one who peyer forgot to
greet his friends with a genial smile
and hearty graBp of tlie-hand, and
who was ever willing to ’lend them a
/helping7 hand in any emergency—
shall also he remembered with re-"
gret. We ask * you to accept tliis
small gift as a memento of the .years
which you spent in our midst and -as
a token of our respect for you. We
also wish to assure you that if at any
time any.„other feeling;than that of-
friendship, was ever entertained by
any of us towards you, tliat it is at
tliis time entirely fqrgotten, -and we(
all heartily join in wishing you. pros*,
perity and happiness in your new’
home, and trust tliat amidst- new
associations and new friends that you
will pot altogether-forget us‘, but re
tain* in your remembrance. a kindly
feeling for - those friends with whom
you. have so long miugled^-and who
now so deeply regret your departure.

There lias' just been, unearthed at
Brussels, county of Hhron, a very
ingenious scheme of forgery. Dur
ing last summer a young American
nameA. Wallace made his appearance
and announced that lie was willing
and ready-to purchase a good farm.
A fifty-acre place adjoing the village
and on which was erected a cheese,
factory, was offered him. He pur
chased it, but on tlie understanding.,
that the first payment was not' to be
come due’until 1st Januafy, 188o?
•That lie had some cash , was well-
known; but liis scheme were large,;
aud he .needed a partner. Residing
on the- adjoiniug two-hundred acre
farm was William Armstrong, a well-
to-do aiid' Highly respected, farmer.
Wallace made, advances to his. son
and induced him to' go into a deal in
cattie. Old man Armstrong, who
cannot read,: indorsed a note for
them. They made some money ou
the speculation, and Wallace’s stock
went up so high in the market that
thereafter when he wished a backer
at,any time ^.11,Jie’ had_t<S; dhwies. tp
caii on/old maa Armstrong.. Wallace
managed to make up his notes by
forging the names of prominent farm
ers when-he wished the old ones re-
■newed; This-was kept .until little
over-two months ago, when he called
at Armstrodg’s just before.dusk 'one
evening, when the old gentleman was
confined to bed by illness. Hu.in-'
duced Mr. Armstrong to sign a note,
iWiich he represented,’ called for
$1,500.- A few days after Wallace
received Word that business matters
in the States required lookih^after,-
and accordingly hej^nt .off to give
his personal attention *to the matter.
Judge of Mr, Armstrong’s surprise
when he was notified a short while
since that one of the banks held a
note of his, on which slick Mr. Wal
lace had drawn $8,000. On receipt
of the news he immediatelo went to
Wingham. and foolishly, as .the se
quel will show, paid $‘2,OO0 ftyfoali
and !gavp a note 'for tlie balance to.
the bank authorities.- He has discov
ered that the names of the other in-
. dorsers were forged,’ and that lie.
need not have paid one ccnt,Thut, be-
ing anj;honorable man, is now mak
ing a hard struggle to pay of his- in-,
debtness. .Of course Wallace’s ^where-;
abouts is not known.
