Some Clintonians have been losers by a swindling concern in Cincinatti, which advertised that the St. Andrew's Bay Land Company, of Florida, would sell lots of forty acres for $2.50. .bully $250 was sent from one Ontario tows by credulous investors, who have been duped, the treas- urer of the company, Guy Weber by name, having been errested on Sunday at Cincinatti for misusing the 'United States mail ; in other words for swindling.

Word was received that the Rev. W. B. Cuyler, missionary to British Columbia, was dead. Mr. Cuyler, who cams from Huron County, where his father still re- sides, entered the ministry of the Canada Methodist Church some six years ago, his first station being Bluevalo end Whitechurch, which were than combined. Tho next year found him at Bayfield, and at the end of the year he expressed a desire to go out as a missionary. Before his departure he married Miss Miller, daughter of Thos. Miller, of White- church, a very estimable young lady, and one largely endowed with missionary sympathies. They departed three years ago and labored at Bella -Bella, among the Indians for two years, when Mr. Cuy- ler's health began to fail. Moving south to Nichola Valley he spent the winter, and wishing to reach home ore he died started for the railway, but on the second day after having travelled twenty miles they were compelled to stop, and in a few hours his spirit fled to the better land- the fell disease consumption having done its work. Mrs. Cuyler and two very young children are expected home in a DAV' days, and they have the sympathy of all in their sad bereavement ander enoh digressing eiroumstanoes, Mr. Cuyler was a young man of good ability, zealous in his Master's work, and was much re• speoted by all who knew him. But his good work was short and at the early age of 29 years he has passed to his reward. The remains were interred in that Zia. tent land, and repose near the scene of his hist labors, awaiting the summons of the last day.
