man & Gounelock that handsomely situ-
ated building lot on Main street, ed -
joining the Commercial Hotel, on the

BUTKER INSPECTION. - Mr. Charles
Wright, of this village, who has hereto-
fore acted as Butter Inspector, finding
that the attention neceSiarily required
for that office interfered with his ther
business, has resigned. At a meeting of
the principal merchants and traders, held
on Monday evening, the 28th ult., Mr.
A. Muir was unanimously appointed In.
for the ensuiug season. We are
glael to learn that Mr. Muir's appoint-
ment gives so general satisfaction. His
prst experience as a buttet buyer will
enable_him to do justice both to the pro-
ducer and the buyer. • The Ontario But-
ter Association having wisely repudiated
all combinations in prices, and the de-
mand for good butter being always large,
ely in excess of the supply, we can rea-
tknably expect a very lively and profit-
able butter season. We feel assured that
all geod 'butter Makers will join in wish-
• ing the movement every success.

village, died on Thursday, April 24,and
was 1uried on the following Friday.
The deceased enfigrated from England
about the year 1833, to what was then
known as the Huron Tract. Her hus-
band, Wm. Balkwill, died, at rather -a
young age, and, consequently, she was
left in qharge of the family. Mrs. Balk -
will be;extensiyely known as the person
who_kcjit the Devon Hotel, on the Lon •
don Road, and also kindly reinembered
by those who had the pleasure of her ac-
quaintance. As a kind and ever -oblig-
ing hostess she stood pre-eminent; her
well -directed benevolence and true gener-
osity never failed to stand out as the
distinguishing features of hercharacter,
and it might well be said that she had
innumerable friends and no enemies.
During the latter part of her life she re-
sided with her son-in-law, Isaac Carling,
Esq., 'whose residence is of a cheerful
and attractive character. In that home
the comforts of life are in rich profusion,
and Mrs. Balkwill enjoyed many loving
• and happy associations, the memory of
which will be long cherished by her sur-
vivors. The funeral was large, many
having come from a distance.

Usborne, has been very ill for about

' way Company. -This 'was an action
-
brought by the owner of land. through

built-in the township of Oneida, M the

claim was founded on the --damages • re-
sulting from the improper emistruction
of the railroad throagh plaintiff's land,
byreason of which hia crops were much
injured, and for the destruction of his
fall wheat crop caused by thd negligence
of the defendants in not properly main-

breaking his arm iirMcCann's tavern, in

rendered unable to work for a long time.
The defence was that it was a mere scuffle
arising out of the election.; but from
the defendant's conduct both before and
afterwards it was urged for the plaintiff
that it was more than a trifling matter of
that kind. A great deal of intereat waS
taken in this case; and especially by
some of the Bayfield worthies, one of
whom, though neither party nor witness,
sat beside the defendant's counsel giving
him instructions throughout the trial.
