Fame many a true hoot there went up
the song and prayer last Tuesday "God
Save our Gracious Queen,"
JAPAN' would not object to joie in an
alliauce with Britain and the United
States. We would have both the tea and
sugar if that arrangement were carried
out.
"A emnson can gat too much of even a
good thing," is an old but true saying
which was proven true by a report from
ltitlrton, Perth Co., last week, which
Bays : "Charles Duffield narrowly escap
ed drowning while dipping out a cup of
milk from a milk tank at the separator
here. He overbalanced himself and fell
in bead first. He was taken out in a
done -out condition." Air. Duffield should
take as his motto, "Where there's a will
there's a whey."
Worse Huron Liberals meet in Convec-
tion al Dungannon on Tuesday of next
week. It is said that M. C. Cameron,
the stalwart M. P., will tender his resig-
nation
esienation with a view of accepting the Lieut -
(matt Governorship of the Northwest.
If this is done a new election will be
necessary and Tam Pose has much pleas-
ure in supporting the nomination of a
man whose name is currently mentioned
in the person of Robert Holmes, Mayor
of Clinton, and proprietor of the "New
Era." He is a gentleman of independent
mind ; a clear headed business man ; a
good speaker, and well and favorably
known in the Riding. A better selection
could not be made in our opinion and as
a neighbor to the Riding we would be
pleased to take a band in helping swell
his majority—as far as is in our power so
to do.
Presbytery or Maitland.
The Presbytery of Maitland meb and
was constituted at Wingham, May 17th,
Bev. W. T. Hall, Moderator. There was
a good attendance of members. The
minutes of last regular and pro•re•nata
meetings were read and adopted. Session
records were attested. An overture to
the General Assembly re supplying and
filling vacancies was adopted, and ordered
to be transmitted to that court. F. Mac -
Innes was reported a student, having the
ministry in view, residing within the
bounds of Presbytery. In re -filling the
ohair of Hebrew Biblical exegesis in Knox
College vacant by the resignation of Rev.
Prof. Robinson, the Presbytery recom•
mend that the General Assembly appoint
a suitable representative of the church to
visit different countries and make in-
quiries as to the suitableness of qualified
persons from whom to choose a Professor.
The committee on revision of regula-
tions regarding order of business was
continued and instructed to prepare re-
port suitable for having it printed.
°iroulars from Presbyteries regarding
reception of ministers from other
churches were presented and read. Five
have made application to be received,
The roll of commissioners to the Gen-
eral Assembly was completed. The fol.
lowing additional elders were appointed,
viz. :—James Smillie, Walton ; W. Mc-
Donald, Riversdale ; Duncan McDonald,
Molesworth ; W. Henderson, Bervie.
The report on Statistics was read and
ordered to be printed, giving average con-
tribution per member, and per family, by
the various 5ongregationt for the schemes
of the ohurah ; stipend, building, and
ordinary purposes, and inorease or de•
crease in contributions, and that a suffi-
cient number be printed to supply each
family in the Presbytery.
The following resolutions were unani-
rnously adopted :—The Presbytery ex-
presses ite gratification at the honor con-
ferred upon one of its members, Rev. J.
L. Murray, M. A., by the Presbyterian
College, Montreal, and congratulates Mr.
Murray on the reception of the degree of
Doctor of Divinity. It sincerely hopes
that by the blessing of God, Dr. Murray
may be long spared to enjoy the reward
of services that have well deserved such
recognition. Dr. Murray acknowledged
the resolution in suitable terms.
The Presbytery passed a minute re-
garding the late Rev. A. F. McQueen ex-
pressive of esteem for his character and
labors in the Gospel ministry, and sym-
pathy with his widow and family in their
bereavement.
Next meeting will be held in Wingham

Dr. Jaeltlin, (graduate Or-the-ep-ist)
who has become' widely and favorably
known through the exoeitent results be
hat accomplished in during speech de.
feats, hoe establiehed at Wingham an
institution for the treatment of that moot
dietreeeing malady, stammering and
stuttering; The beet proof of the effnoady
of itis method of,treatnienb is that no fee
is required until a aura is effected to the
eatiefaction of etudent or interested
friends.
The subject "Stammering," the Dr.
says, is misunderstood, not only by the
general public, but even by those interest-
ed in individual oases. That it is rapidly
00 the inurtase, and that heretofore little
udooeesbae bean met with in the efforts
to etop las progress, are facts whith could
entity be proven were it necessary to do
eo, but they are too potent to ail who
have given the subject any consideration,

The manifeetabions of Ville derangement
of the vocal organs very in nearly every
individual. In some Mos the sufferer
essays to speak, but expels his breath
without uttering 0 sound, and in others
his lips °lose in the attempt; sometimes
be will, while reading or oonveresng,
duddenly lose all control of hie ertioola-
tion, his mouth remaining open, Some-
times he will expel the words in irrogn-
lar order ; sometimes hie face and limbs
aro violently extorted, and in other oases
they make the attempt to speak in a
feeble, inooherent manner and a look of
vaoency passes over their faces,
Some stammerers will soddenly, when
the stammering begins, remain silent,
the fade indicating the struggle within ;
others will burst into tears tied then be-
gin to speak. Some distend their mouths
and in this way gain temporary control
of their voices, manifestation's which are
too painful to describe further.
These patients, However, have been
treated from all parte of Canada and the
United States and at the completion of
the course mould speak as ovally as the
readiest talker.
My method of treatment excludes all

Two Fiums.—Daring the terrific storm
on Wednesday night of last week lights•
ing struck the barn of W. Robinson,
Huron road, jnst West of town, and set
it on fire, and the night watchman sound-
ing the alarm, quite a number were
quioltly on the scene, but could render no
assistance, as the immense buildings were
a mass of names in a fecv minutes. The
only stook in it was a calf, which could
not be relieved. A new Massey binder,
driven into the barn on Tuesday of last
week, was among the maohinery lost,
which iuoltided a number of implements,
grain, &c. The barn was insured for
$800, and the contents for $1000. The
barn was a very large one and his loss
thereon will be heavy.—During the same
storm the barn of M. Hill, 11th con. of
Mullett, was also struck and destroyed,
with its entire contents, which included
four cows, his horses, calves, pigs, imple-
ments, &o. We have not heard the
amount of the insurance, but his loss will
be very heavy. Mr. Hays, inspector of
the MoKillop Mutual, was up to arrange
the loss for both these fires.
