the windows. The alarm was soon given,
and even at that still hour of the night a
large 'number were soon on hand. By
this time the flames had got up between
the two walls above the first floor, and
bad also brokeie out through the siding,
and.the flames were igoing higher than
the eves. The cornice being very heayy,
and presenting no light .work, only pre-
vented the roof taking fire. By thie
time a good supply of pails was on hand:
A couple of ladders were placed against
the wall, the siding tdri off, and with a
glood sapply of water the fire was soon
kot under. It had also worked in be-
tween the ceiling and the first floor, and
had burned -holes through the floor and
carpet in one of the bed. rooms. If there
had been any wind blowing at the time,
or had the fire not been discovered when
it was, there would have been very little
hopes of saving the building. Ilhere ,is
no doubt- but that the lire was the work
of an incendiary. It was started in the
wall outsiCe and at the lower corner of
one of the windows, off the side street,
looking into the bar -room, Large drops of
coal oil were quite plainly to be seen on
the siding just below the window.
FIRE PROTECTION. -We would sug
gest that it would be advisable, and to
the immediate interest of the inlitattit-
ants, to at ottee take some steps toward
forming some Means of protection in case
of a fire, even if it were only a hook and
ladder company. Several or our neigh-
boring %reneges have seffered very much,
of late, from tires, and having paid very
dearly for their expetience, are now
adopting some means of protecKon, and
would it not be expedient for us, also, to
take some such steps?

THE GRAN D TRU N YET. -Strange to
say, it pays better to ship flour at Sea -
forth on the much abused Grand Trunk,
from here than to take it to Harristoxf,
though ;the distance both ways 24
miles less. Not only has the Welling-
ton, Grey and 13ruce charged more than
the Grand Trunk, but it has not done
the business of the country as it ought
to have done. The farmers on the East
!tide of Howick township, who opposed
the by-law to the Toronto, Grey and

were wrong; as without it, they say the

Sin: Being in the village of Som
where one night, I attended a Sabbat
school tea tneetIng. Admittance. 2
cents; refreshments, first-class; musi
good; speeches, religious and to th
point. To my surprise, however, afte
what 1 heard about religious training
addressed. to both old and youug. fo
their spiritual benefit, the prcigraname
changed, and a very unrighteous farce
was enacted, by putting up two youn
ladies for sale, or at leaet what amount
ed to the same thing. Such a Pystern to
draw money for any Christian Society i
a mockery of Bible principles. We hav
it laid down in the Good Book, especial
ly for 'those who pretend to tea.c
youth, to abstain from. the appearance of
evil, and dn the face of this Command
they,will introduce such folly, to draw
money for a Christian object. . Instead
of good, it engenders a spirit of animosi-
ty and jealousy in the minds` of youth.
which sometimes ends in scenes not
seemly to look upon. Not long ago, a
case similar happened, when ministers
of the Gospel had to retire in disgust. I
hope Sabbath school teachers and minis-
ters of the Gospel will raise their voices
against such proceedings. If our reli-
gious institutions cannot raise money
without resorting to such groveling
means, I must say that the standard. of
religion is at a low ebb in this the nine-
teenth oentury. Man trusts too much tt;
self, and looks away from the, Giver.
We are told to ask in His name and we
shall receive, and He will withold no
good • thing. We have exainples to
guide us in our religious duty by. the
fishermen of Galilee, but it seeras the
fishermen. of Somewhere leave a new
Gospel to declare; they have different
nets from the Galileans ; their nets are
of indiarubber, stretching to catch all
kinds of game, to make money either by
poaehing or otherwiee. A TRAVELER.
