Hug•hson, an old and protihinent Methodist minister, died at his residence in Deleware township, near London, on Saturday moring. He was born in New Brunswick iu 1818. Reports from various points indicate that the peach crop in the Western peninsula will be unusually abundant this year, The trees in many orch- ards are in blossom, which has not happened so early for fifty years. A Bayfield correspondent says:— Some Toronto gentlemen are talking of building and operating an electric railway from Seaforth to Bayfield. This would certainly be a great boon to Bayfield, and would no doubt pay handsomely. While Mr. Isaac Reid was assisting Mr. John McInnis' boy in unloading a flour bin from a wagon yesterday (Wed.) the horse attached made a stud den start and threw him out on his head. Being an old man and not at all active he was pretty badly shaken up. One of the finest collection of polished stones that we have had the pleasure of looking at is on exhibition in Weeke's Bros. marble works. Outside critics have pronounced them to be one of the best collections in Ontario. Mr. Will Weekes made the collection himself. Many of the stones having being col- lected in California, New Mexico, Eng- land and other countries where Will has travelled. The commercial value of the collection is worth over $100, but it would take more than that to buy them' The non -advertising merchant goes forth to his lair at the rising of the sun and lo! no man interfereth. He standeth around all day like unto a bottle of castor oil, and the people with shekels come not unto his shanty. He advertiseth not his ware and his face is forgotten on the face of the earth. Who hath dried apples ? Who hath soiled ginghams ? Who hath calicoes rnade before the lwar? Who hath stale baling powder without end? He that knoweth not the way to the printer's.— Hepworth Journal. Here is a sample case of meanness and dishonesty, given by the Kincard- ine Review:—" The Review had for si ver•al years the name of John H, Rig- gi n, jr , on its subscription list. His ad• dress is East Saginaw, Mich:. He was urged to pay up his arrears, but paid no attention to these demands until a few weeks ago, when he wrote to say that he wouldn't pay it. But Mr. R. may have to pay it yet, We have not many subseribers of his stripe on our list and nothing will give us greater pleasure than forcing him into paying his honest debts."

Blinded with a Slingshot. Eight-year-old Oliver Sipple was throwing pebbles at some birds on a crab tree in his father's back yard on Central Avenue, London, on Wednes- day afternoon, He was assisted by that boon companion of so many small boys—an elastic silngshot. While in the act of throwing a stone the elastic broke and threw he missile into the boy's right eye. The optic was burst and so seriously injured that the doc- tors hold out no hope whatever for a recovery of the sight. There is a mor- al in this story that some boys can afford to learn.

HYMEN'S ,ALTAR.—A very pret ty wedding wasolemnised Wednesday forenoon at the home of the bride, by the Rev. Dr. Cornish. The coutracting parties were Dentist D. A. Anderson, of Exeter, and Miss Minnie, daughter of the late Matthew Elliott, of this town. After the interesting ceremony, the newly married ccuple, with a large number of friends, partook of a sump tuous repast, which was prepared by the bride's mother. The happy couple left the same day for their home in Exeter, carrying with them the best wishes for their future happiness and prosperity of their many acquaintan- ces in Mitchell.—Mitchell Advocate. Hillsgreen: A pleasant event took place at the residence of Mr. Charles Troyer, postmaster, of this village, on Tuesday, the 17th inst., the occasssion being'themarriage of his daughter, Miss Bertha, to Mr. Robert Jarrott, for merly of the Parr line, but who recent- ly purchased a farm on the 2nd con. of Hay. The interesting and ir- portant ceremony was performed be Rev, Mr. Walker of the Kippen circuit, in the presence of a number of friends of the contracting parties. Mr. and Mrs. Jar- rott are a well known and a highly es- teemed young couple, and their u any friends unite in wishing them a pleas ant sail down life's turbid stream, McKillop: A number of uninvited young men attended a wedding party given by Mr. Joseph Nicholson, of Mc- Killop, recently. They went well sup- plied with whisky and cheek, ordered their horses stabled and fed, and, in the house, undertook to smash doors, stairs and windows, and throw provisions and dishes around, and tea over the bride. Mr. Nicholson offered for peace sake, the following day, to take $40 dam- ages, but only met with scoffs and jeers He then entered awaction against five of the leaders for house breaking, and the result is likely to be unprofitable for. the young men and apt to teach them a lesson. Goderich tp: In the death of John McLennan, a noted fifer and a well- known charact"r, has passed away. He had been ailing for several weeks from kidney trouble and succumbed at his home here, on Sunday, aged 54 years.
