Post says. -On Monday evening last
an appreciative audience congregated
in the Presbyterian Church, Hanover,
to hear a lecture on "The Mechanics'
Institute ; its Books, Work and
Power," delivered by the Rev. Dr.
Moffatt. The address was one of the
best and ablest ever delivered in this
town. Dr. Landerimin, AL P. P., oc-
cupied the chair, and after a few in-
troductory remarks called upon the
speaker, who at once proceeded to ex-
plain in a most lucid manner the
benefits conferred by Mechanics' In•
stitulos in Canada and elsewhere. He
gave some very valuable hints as to
the books suitably nod appropriate,
and a(lvteed that nothing trashy
Should be allolvod. The leelurer dwelt
nt some length upon the power and
influence exerted everywhere by well
Stored minds, and the urgent ueceseity
there is for diffueing knowledge to
every class and to every one in every
community. The Dr, held his audience
spellbound for at hour and a half.
His subject was one of practical utility
to every person. Those who were
prevent enjoyed a rich treat which
they will long remember. All were
well Satisfied and hope to have the
picaeuro of hearing the 1)r. again at
an early date.

as follows :-"The meanest sneak ou
God's footstool is the subscriber who
takes the paper for several years and
then skips out without paying for it.
He is only rivaled by the individual,
who, cowardliko, requests the post-
master to write "refused" on his paper,
instead of paying the amount legally
and. honestly clue the publisher and
stopping it like a mall.
NEW WHITE HEARSE. -Mrs. Long
is determined that Brussels shall keep
pace with not only the surrounding
towns in the furniture and undertak-
ing business but even with the cities.
To prove this we state that she has
ordered a new white hoarse, valued
at $600, with plate glass, and every-
thing got up in the very latest design.
It will arrive in about a month. As
far as we know Guelph is the nearest
place possessing anything of this kind.
As the most of otlr readers aro aware
Mrs. Long had a very good hoarse all
along and will keep it still but this
last expenditure proves her deeire aucl
intention of pushing the business right
along. She deserves to succeed.
