Armstrong, with millinery store ad- ieu:ling, and the book and stationery store of D. 13. Calbtok. In 'addition the drygoods store of James Robinson was completely gutted, the larger por- tion of the goods having, however, been removed, • The total loss will be about $80,000. The fire originated from a furnace in the eellar of Arm - 'strong .81..tione store and spread BO rapidly that little opportunity was givento save much of .their stook, which had lately been increased greatly by spring importations. The loss by fire is only 'covered partly by ineurance, so far as Armstrong & Co., James Robinson and Geo. Acheson, the proprietor of the blook, are con- cerned. In the case of .D. B. Calbick, in endeavoring to save a pertion of his goods fell through a trap-door in his cellar and sustained severe in- juries, two of his ribs being broken: It was with difficulty that he was en- abled to get out, owing to the heat and smoke. -• • Usloorne Oinetraar.-In the "Hustler" pub- lished at Haroiota, Manitoba, dated larch 26th, we find the following notice of a former resident of this township, who will be remembered by naany. nit is our sad duty this week to chronicle the death of one of the pioneers of this district, in the person of Mr. Riobard Briniacombe, who died at his late residence last Thursday morning, after a very short illness.

Here he remained three years, when he sold this farm and purchased another in the Scotia settle- ment. Eie also secured a second homestead, on which he resided till the time of his death. About eleven years ago he was united in marriage to Miss Leah Kennedy, who is left with tvvo children to mourn his loss. The deceased was a man of quiet habits, and lived a peaceful fuel:fenny° life, and was highly respected by all who knew him, and his sudden demise has cast a gloom over the conimunity, A large number of relatives, neighbors and friends assembled at hie late rest - deuce on Friday Nit to pay the last tribute of respect, Rev.
