In the legal columns of a city daily it is laid down as good law that a far, mer is not bound to have his gates closed on his farm or otherwise fenced to keep cattle out of it. Cattle going on his property or through an open gate or otherwise are legally liable to beim- pounded. He is bound to keep his cat- tle from trespassing on other people's property, but he is not bound to keep other peopleoutof his by fence or any other means. The ist of September. The shooting of hares, pheasants, wild ducks, etc., became lege. on the 1st of September. It was the general impression that this should have been a splendid season for game breeding but those who have been in tate woods report coveys yer,y scarce, only a few birds to be put up. Of duels, there are a few on the river and black creek but there are so many sportsmen after them that they are wild and do not re- main long in one place.

Returning' in. a few minutes with the noble animals alt again aseemhlcd,when one of the party climbed the tree to shake out the game, which had been crying piteously all the time.
