A letter which the unfortunate young lady had written to her mother, who was visiting in Michigan, only a day or two previous to the suicide, establishes the fact that excessive religious fervor had unbal- anced her mind for the tirne being. The mother received the letter the same day she received the news of the daughter's death. Death of a Visitor. The last call came very suddenly to Mrs. Gallinger. of Eden Grove, on Tuesday, Sept. 5th, while she was vis- iting at the home of her brother, Mr. Simon Campbell, in Usborne township.

The inhabitants are principally iron! this neighborhood and were so delighted to see their old friend that a torchlight procession was formed to accompany the p(uest into the place. A number of friends came on horse back to see him. They were armed with guns and dressed like indians. Of course they were not colored. One of the parties awing unable to secure it horse w is obliged toride upon an ox. A ;wrson, present at the reception, writing to a friend in this place says: 'Mr. Will Hynllman (an old KXeteritel attracted considerable attention while riding across the prairie on a white ox.' When the procession was over the party repaired to the house at which Mr. Sanders wee staying and p Irteek of a splendid supper.

A., of Ingersoll, had charge of the services his discourses being able and were list- ened to with a great deal of interest. The choir rendered excellent music, with Mr. L. P.
