Medical—Dr, Similar. Locale—Alex. S tri Lohen, Notioe—D. Breckenridge. Brussels Marble Works—J. J. John- ston, FRIDAY, SEPT. 2, 1892. A NEW election is on the tapis in the Northwest, a want of confidence motion having upset the Government. Many people oonfuse this with the Manitoba Legislature in which Thos. Greenway, formerly of Huron Co., is the leader, but it is hardly neoeeaery to state that they are two separate and distinct legislative bodies. WE will not regret the day when cus- tom will decree that the publio exhibi. tion of the dead on funeral occasions is no longer thought prudent. There is a morbid curiosity en the part of many to gaze upon the faces of the dead that should not be satisfied. After the im- mediate relatives and friends have taken their farewell look the casket would be closed if we had our way. EON. W. E. GLAnsTONE and his newly appointed cabinet are safely secured in their respective positions after having asked their constituents for re-elootion subsequent to their elevation to office. Mr. Gladetone's health is good, consider- ing his increasing years and he hopes to beable to present a bill of fere to the coming parliament that will, if carried out, redress many grievances now exist. ing in the Old Land. THE POST is still, of the opinion that an effort should be made to have additional mail facilities ,for Brussels by utilizing the noon train running East and the night train going West. 0. petition large. ly signed by the business men of this place and backed up by a similar effort by the other towns and villages along the ,line of the W. G. & B. railway should go a long way in influencing the Postmaster General to grant this request. It will be remembered that energetio efforts were talked of some time ago in reference to this proposal but it soon died out. What has Kincardine, Ripley, Luoknow, Wingham, Atwood, and Listowel to say about it ? Perth County. St. Marys rate of taxation is 14 mills. Stratford fall raoes meeting Sept. 18th and 14th. Purses, $1,575. The election trial of J. Pridbam, M. P., for South Perth, will take place on the Salt inst. ab Stratford. St. Marys lowu council has appointed 0. S. Rumsey to the vacancy in the Collegiate Institute Board caused by the death of R. Box. The Blanshard Agricultural Society has a membership of 250 this year ; the Stephen & Ueborue Society has upwards of 500 on its books, Blanshard council will ask the electors to pronounce on the advisability of doing away with the statute labor, and having all road improvements made under the direct supervision of the Council. By-laws for levying the rates for the current year ware passed by Elam Coun- oil as follows :—Co. rate 8 mills ; Town- ship rate 4 mills ; debenture By-law rate 8/10 mills and St. and H. R. R. rate 2/10 mills on the dollar. The directors of the Elma Fair have resolved on having an old fashioned fair this year, pure and simple. There are to be none of the outside attractions, bub all efforts are to be directed to obtaining a complete eexhibit of the products of the farm. While hitching a horse to his new bind- er Wm. Bird, 12th con., Elms, met with a very serious accident. The horse be- came afraid and baoking up kinked Mr. Hird on the right side with great force. Three of his ribs were broken in two sep- arate places and some ribs crushed from the bank bone. The St. Marys Argus bad an ear of oorn left at their office whioh is a pecu- liarity. It is a good sample of corn and op on the t is a cluster of well formed peas and oats. The corn grew alongside a field of peas and oats and all being in a the same time it le supposed flower t , the grafting or fertilizing process has been added by the wind or bees. A brother who was staying with Mr. Hurst, 12th con., Elms, mat with a very painful aocideut recently. While Bleep. ing a large clock (beetle) entered his ear, causing intense suffering. Owing to the insect being deeply in the ear and having a very tight hold, it was impossible to re- move it by the imperfect light of the lamp. The doctor put some drugs in the ear to kill the insect, whioh had the de. sired effect and as soon as daylight came it was easily removed. John Marks happened with an acci- dent in Livingstone's flax mill, Milbank. It seems that in a souffle with P. Rooney his hand got caught in the thresher roll- er's, drawing the arm in to the shoulder's but owing to some of the belts being stop. ped. The arm Was badly bruised but strange to say none of the bones were broken. Messrs. Livingstone, it seems, cannot get hands enough around here to do their work and had to get in some Indians to work at the flax pulling. John Weik, a resident of Rostock, re- turning from Stratford on Friday night called at Alex. Schrenk's hotel and de- manded liquor. It was refused hien, whereupon he became very wrathy and started to smash things promiscuously. The landlord ejected him forcibly, and admonished him with foot and fist in doing so. Welk, after breaking several windows, went to his home and returned With a Winchester rilie, and began to riddle the hotel. He pumped sixteen shots into the buildingand then retired to the woods. lie as not been seen eines. Fortunately, no ono was injured, The Stratford Herald says :—Tito business of J. H. Pyper & Go. has been disooutinued in bile city, and Mr. and Mrs, Pyper return to Seaforth this week, where Mr, Pyper will enter into business in partnership with his old employer, J. e r. dr . M Donnan, in the y goods bueiuee Pyper and lady have made many warm friends in Stratford during the year they spent here, and their departure is re- gretted, espeoially in Methodist and tem- perance oiroles, where they actively assisted. A distressing accident 000urred at the residence of Wm, Davidson, Carlingford, about 10 o'clock Tuesday morning. Dire. Davidson, a lady of 81 years, was stand. mg in the dining room near the open ostler door talking to her brother, when bis attention was attracted elsewhere for a time. Hearing some peouliar noise he turned around and was horrified to find that his sieter bad fallen down cellar. The old lady had evidently been seized with a fainting spell. In the fall she fractured her skull. A doctor was Galled, but life was extinct before he arrived. She died without regaining oonseiousuese in about an hour and a half after the accident. Several boys between the ages of five and seven years while playing with matches in the village of Shakespeare, on Monday morning, started a conflag- ration which for a time threatened to destroy almost the entire village. The fire started iu the hay loft of a stable owned by George Forbes, which was soon consumed, together with an adjoin- ing furniture store, also owned by Mr. Forbes. A stable owned by P. O'Rourke was the 'text to go, and another across the street owned by Mies Susan Yaggie soon followed. By this time all the villagers had turned out, and were mak- ing strenuous efforts to save the adjoining dwelling houses, but, as there was no fire apparatus of any kind in the village, they were seriously handicapped in their efforts. The residence of John A. Omar was entirely consumed, and several others took fire but were finally saved. Mr. O'Ronke's stable was insured in the Queen's, and Mr. Orerar had a policy for $600 in the Perth Mutual. Mr. Forbes is the heaviest loser, as be had no insurance. The boys say that the three-year.old son of Mr. Forbes was directly responsible for the fire. They heard him crying in the hay loft, and on going to him found him sitting on a burning bundle of hay, whioh had been ignited by some matches be held in his hand. They galled for help and an elder son of Mr. Forbes came to his relief, and saved the little fellow unhurt. Gelnerttl Nowte. The deaths from cholera in Persia eo far number 85,000. It is rumored in Vera Ortiz that obolera exists in Habana, Mexico. A soldier affected with Asiatic oh olera bas been found in the German capitel.

It is oalaulated that 85,000,000 has been sent to the United States from Mexico in payment for grain imported. Thomas Neill, alias Dr.' Cream, the Canadian, has been committed for trial in London for murder and blaokmail. A.11 the men of the Lackawanna Rail. road Company who went on strike in Buffalo have secured their own positions. Sixteen persons have oommitted suicide at Trieste while laboring under mental derangement brought on by excessive beat. Several Welsh tinplate manufacturers have olosed their works.

The French Governmenb has ordered that all Russian Jews arriving at Mar. seilles be sent to the lazaretto and have their clothes burned. New York health officials found four more oases of smallpox in that pity Sat- urday, but all are in houses where the disease had already appeared. The hop harvest in central New York is now in full blest. Pickers are Beane, and prices have advanced. The quality is good, but the crop is not heavy. At the next meeting of. the Masonic Grand Lodge the Prince of Wales will move a grant of £500 to the Lord Mayor's fund for the St. John's fire sufferers. Nearly 1,200 bunohes of grapes ripened this season on the great vine at Hampton Court. They were sent to Queen Victoria. This vine is the largest in England, and is about 126 years old. Sixt -one of the miners sa Deed to have lost their lives in the Bridge End colliery. Wales, were rescued Saturday. They had escaped the flames through be- ing buried in a recess. Robber heels. to facilitate marching, are to be attached to the shoes worn by French soldiers. We should think it a bad feature to make it easy for the eel. diem to take to their heels. Mrs. Edward MoManteman, of Salt Springs, Cumberland, N. S., has given birth to triplets, two boys and a girl. This is the third time in succession that this lady has thus distinguished herself. Frances E. Willard, of 0bioago, press. dent of the World's and National Women's Christian Temperance Union, accompanied by Mise Anna Gordon, her secretary, have sailed for England. They go as the guests of Lady Henry Somerset. Mrs. Peter Lamerouo, who lives near the West End bridge, Chicopee, Mass., wee awakened by the soreama of her 0 - months -old child, and rushing to the cradle found a huge gray wharf rat tear. ing the flesh from the child's body and limbo. She had some difficulty in driving the creature off. The book of the child's head sons sooi3od, and there were several other wounds. Gilbert G.

The artilioial manufacture of wild men is said by a well-known English doobor to be carried on in China as a regular trade. First a youth is kid- napped, then bit by bit be is flayed alive and the akin of a dog or a bear is grafted pieoe by piece upon him. His vocal chords are next destroyed by the notion of cl.areoal to make him dumb, and the double purpose of oauaing "etiolation" of the skin and utter degradation of the mental faculties is effeoted by keeping him immured in a perfectly black hole for a number of years. Ie faot, by treat- ing him like a brute for a sufficiently long time he is made into one. At last he is exhibited to the entirely orednlots Chinese as a wild man of the woods, and his possessors reap a rich harvesb. The priests, it seems, are adepts at the art. When a kidnapper, however, is caught by the people he is torn to pieces, and when the authorities get him they tor- ture him and promptly behead him. DR. SINCiAIR M. D., M. A., C. P. S. 0., M. 0. P.
