(From onr Special Correspondent) The contract for the woodwork of the new English church, to be erected in Gorie, has beeit awarded to Mr. Mc- Laughlin, -$600 being the amount of his xeuder. The building will cost about $5,000 when finished. A number of parties in the township have gat themselves into trouble by lobbing a nonlresiclent lot of timber,' and, although thave very little bym- pathy ,itith speculators, yet I think it tithe an example was made of some amber thieves, or no man's lot will be safe. While two Wroxeter lawyers were squabbling about as to who was the rightful owner of .a horse, a third par- ty stele the animal from the Stable where ene of the 'lawyers had placed it. I presume the proper owner is a')out as well satisfied, as it would have been a dead loss any wey. -Do the . hotel keepers of Gorrie un- derstand that there ,is .a township by- law that makes themjiable to a fine for allowing young men, untler age to spend their evenings in the bar -rooms, or round their premises ? ,I „would ,advise them to get posted. and ikeeit within bounds, or they %will get into trouble. I understand that Mr. Foater, who had some thoughts of startiqg a woolen mill in Gorrie, is building one in Clin- ton. If Messrs. Leech would be more aiberal with parties coming in, the vil- lage would thrive bettera but when they ask such an outrageoas price as 800 (half that would be a big price) for a fourthdate pilivilege, atas no Won- der parties are frightened away. Mr Foster, I understand, offeredt$1,000 for the 'privilege and :ground, but their dog -in -the -manger -p4licy would not al- low them to elese with him. It is cu- rious they cannot see that such a mill here would make their property eo much the *more valuable, and :they be the gainers in the end.
