---A mad caw played some queer pranks
in the recreation yard of the Christian
Brothers' school, at Ottawa, on Friday,
and for a time some of the pePils had a
lively time keeping out of her way. The
animal was driven into a stable, and
three.of the young men undertook to -tie
her up, but no sooner had they entered
the building than each in his turn was
affected in_a most singular manner, and
ultimately went into convulsions. The_
sequel shows -that the poor cow had been
driven mad by gas which had escaped
from a pipe running under -the cow's
.stable.
-The number of cattle exported from
Canada, to . England last year has been
greater than at any previous time. It
will be gratifying to Canadians to know
that: their cattle meet with a ready ` sale
in the `land of beef." The exporting of
cattle to England promises to be a very
profitable branch of Canadian industry..
A gentleman writing from London, Eng-
land, to a friend, says that measures are,
being taken to secure the necessary co-
operation of salesmen ancd to import at
least 500 head of cattle per week-- during
the year, so that our farmers need not
fear any difficulty in disposing of their
herds.
-A great deal of hardwood is being
. shipped from Anderdon, Essex County,
over the Canada Southern Railway to
Detroit. The Canada Southern appears
to be worked night and day, with hardly
any intermission. Owing to the disaster
on the Lake•Shore Road at Ashtabula,
Ohio, it is carrying the cattle in the
Michigan Southern Road cars over this
road to the east, and will continue to do
so until the bridge is rebuilt at Ashtabu-
la. The Canada Southern people feel
justly proud this winter of their uninter-
rupted tragic,as crossing the river be-
tween the "new slip" and Stony Island
is jt t as easy now as in summer. .
Mr, Vennor, in his latest prediction -
to the Witness this afternoon, says :
"Another great blow and heavy snow-
storm is predicted yet for January, and
then a thaw. There will be a brief lull
in the severity of the winter, which will
form anintermission in its programme.
.February will be on'the whole another
severe month, with some heavy block
.ales of snow andesteady winter weather,
`but toward the latter part a change will
be perceptible and the sun will commence
to exert a marked influence. Heavy
gales will characterize the termination of
• this month, and when these arrive the
worst -may be considered' as over."
-A stranger from the States, giving
his name as A. W. March in some places,
and using several aliases,' has been vic-
timizing the honest blacksmiths of West-
ern Ontario by selling them a pretended
right`,to manufacture patent horse -shoes.
The right cost thenal five dollars, and
they !were to receive the first barrel of
horseshoes free, from- the factory, which
was said to be in Toronto. It is now
over a month - since they paid the'
money, and nothing has yet been seen or
heard of the shoes, nor can any ofthem
find any such factory in Toronto. They
have their documents, which are .per-
fectly worthy, mexcept so far as they
•ay be a warning to them to beware of
all such cheats in the future. The paper

• THE MARKETS r
SEAFORTH, an. 18, 1877.
An immense amount of grain has been
purchased this week, and good prices
have been paid. In fact it is said that
as•much, if not more, has been paid for
wheat at Seaforth market, as the Toronto
street prices of the same date. A
farmer from the other side of Brus-
sels came to Seaforth on Tuesday with
fall wheat and -pork. - At Brussels he
was offered $1.23 per bushel for the
wheat, and $7.35 per 100 lbs. for his
pork. When he came to Seaforth Mr.
Jas. Beattie purchased the wheat for
$1.38x, and the pork for $8 ; the farmer
realized filly $9 more for his load by
coming to Seaforth. This certainly
speaks for itself. We quote Thursday's
prices as follows :
