Skating has again begun on the pond, but the dread has not yet passed away, and many an anxious parent may be soon hanging round near the bank.

Pelee is noted for its grape growing, its pleasant situation and health giving climate. Geo. Jenkins, well known round here, who is teaching near Whiteehureh this year, has been laid up this week.

There are upwards of fifty scholars at- tending the Principal's room in our pub. lie school this winter.

NOT C1isDITADLE.—A 500110 Was witness• ea of r a night ht last the like on Saturday v which, S s n "Scott Act," has whish, thanks to the 'So not linen seen in our quiet village for .many months past. A farinua from the north of the village, rospeatably connect• ed, and who himself might jte respected were it not for his indulgence in strong drink, had got too much "anti-Sootb" aboard before leaving Wingham. He drove from there to this glace in the most reckless tnanner, endangering his wife's lifo as well as ilia man by upsetting near the cheese factory, On arriving hero ho made the place hideous with his profanity, ran his horse on the platform of the post office and tho cutter against one of the verandah posts, completely wrecking it. Ile was thrown out and 11 was almost a miracle ho escaped striking the post himself, Had he done so wo should likely have had to record another tragedy caused by drink, The poor oroa- • bare, in hie demented state, threatened all the Bluevale correspondents with death if they should send an account of his doings to the "papers." We hereby give him fair warning that should he again disgrace himself and our fair and peaceable village by such conduct wo shall give his name to the public. Public opinion in this part will no longer endure such conduct, and it is high time that the Inspdbtor paid another visit to Wingham and let the law breakers there feel that they cannot outrage at once public sono• mont and decency as well as law with impunity. thoEthel etn Tho annual mo h g oft E ohoese factory will be hold, at t110 factory, on Wednesday of next week, oommenning at 1o'elook, Miss McGregor, who has spent nearly ton years in Indere, Coutral India, gave a very iuteresting and instructive address in the Presbyterian ohnroll Met Timidity 000010(1, which was listened to attentive- ly by a large audience.

Goderich and Clinton are the largest places he bas ever been in during his residence here, and ho has never yet been on an excursion train. As he is now about 70 years of age, and has the means wherewith to be happy, it is pretty near time ho started out to en- joy himself and see the world, if he ever intends to do so.
