FRIDAY, AUG. 213, 1889.
As a proof of the value placed on the
Chinese we subjoin the following piece of
information :-A recent shipment from
Victoria, British Columbia, for China
was passed through the custom house
described as "three coffins valued at $150,
and sixty -throe cases of Chinamen's bones
worth $8,400."
Sized En Jxo. L. SIILLivAN was senteno.
ed to twelve months imprisonment with
hard labor, for engaging in a prize fight
in Mississippi. His lawyer has appealed
the case so John L. is ont on bail pending
the hearing of the apprah Iiilrain has
not had his trial yet. The public would
care very little if the two pugs received
three years each instead of one.
WE understand that Reeve Graham
has received a communication from Geo.
Love & Co. demanding that the town re-
move the fence around the Park off the
street. %Then this pleasant resort was
lensed a year or so ago the fence was
moved out a couple of feet nearer the
poplar trees so as to increase the size of
the grounds, which are always open to
the public. No one is inconvenienced by
the present arrangement and to say the
least the demand is not a popular one.
The cause of it was over the weighing of
this season's crop of flax. Mr. Love &
Co. have the townlscales and this summer
J. & J. Livingston, who could net arrange
with them satisfactorily, so they say, put
up scales of their own on the bank of the
river just south of the flax mill. Thio
property happens to be the end of King
street and Mr. Love asked the corporation
for $20 in settlement of his claim or else
cause Livingstone to remove their scales.
The Council refused to accede and the
Park fence now comes in for its innings.
"Tice Dorchester Township Thistle In-
spector is making things lively for some
of those who are not attending to the
cutting of the thistles. In eome instances,
says a correspondent, it is quite a hard-
ship. A couple of farmers came before
one of the most dignified J. P.'s in the
county on Friday afternoon and were
fined $5 and costs, amounting to $8.85,
and $8.25 respectively. A widow, who
had her thistles cut once during the sea-
son, and supposed everything was all
right, was also mulcted in one of the
above euros." A drive through the town-
ships of Grey end Morris will convince a
canal observer that some such comae as
that stated above would be productive of
good. What is the use of a few farmers
making an effort to keep their farms clear
when thistles and weeds are allowed to
bloom and scatter their seed on the road.
side and adjoining farms ? If delinquent
pathmasters were made toe the mark for
this serious neglect there would soon be a
different order of things. There are
some farms in both Grey and Morrie that
are a disgrace to any man calling himself
a farmer and every succeeding year makes
it worse and worse. If the Township
Councils world appoint Inspectors to
look after this very necessary department
of work it would be money in the pockets
of the ratepayers.

As has been mentioned from time to

Anumber of farmers in South Essex

A letter to a gentlemen in Halifax

A few days ago a valuable team of
horses belonging to Jacob Stoltz, mar
New Hamburg, galloped into a barb wire
fence, with the result that one of them,
valued at at over $200, had to bo killed,
while the other is so seriously injured
that much of its value is gone.
The remains of an antedeluvian mon-
ster have been discovered on the south-
east quarter of lot 9, con. 7, township of
Amaranth, owned by W. B. Jelly, ex -
reeve. The parts found are exceedingly
well preserved and consist of a large
horn or tusk 12 feet 8 inches long, a
number of ribs ranging from 5 feet in
length up, portions of the back bone, eto.
John Jelly, of Shelbourne, now has the
remains in his possession. The search
will be continued for other bones.
A few days ago a steer was found
mired in the old bed of the Mud Branch
creek, on the farm of D. R. Ross, West
Zorra. The bovine had been missing for
over a month, and when found it was
nothing but a shadow, the flesh having
almost disappeared from its bones. A
few willing hands helped to pull the ani-
mal out of the mire, when it received
every attention and is now coming around
all right. Water flowed past the animal
continually within easy reach, so that his
exiotance must have been prolonged by
the use of water only.
Several weeks ago a widow of about 40,
but looking much younger, arrived from
St. Louis, Mo., at one of the Montreal
hotels. While riding in a street oar, she
inquired from a gentleman next to her
for a certain street. He gave her the de-
sired information and was soon on terms
of intimacy. The lady astonished the
young man ono day tvith a plump pro-
posal, to which he gave no direct reply.
She followed up her proposal with letters
and calls at his office. Finally her
passion became such that its objeot was
compelled to appeal to Chief Hughes for
protection. The chief remonstrated, but
the lady announced that she would never
rest until "he was here," He, however,
declined, and the lady was threatened
with the law. She then demanded of the
chief to have an instant marriage. The
attendance of the son of the lady was
next obtained by telegraph, and it was
decided he should toll his mother that
the marriage was to take place in Toron-
to, and the matron was off,
Boeing At Goderlch.
The inauguration races under the aus-
pices of the Goderioh Turf Association
were held ab Goderioh on Wednesday.
The weather was all that could be de-
sired and there was a large attendance,
the grand stand being hacked with spec-
tators. The first race in the list was the
green trot, in which there were five
entries; viz.:-Whitoly's Telegraph Boy,
Swartz Reliable, Bishops Captain
Laird, Murdock's Solve and Livingston's

In exchanging wool for goods will
