-- Mr. Matthew Robertson, .8th Con-
cession of Innisfil, on Friday morning,
the 20th inst., lost his new stone house
byfire. Flames were first discovered is-
suing from a . frame summer kitchen
about 3 o'clock A. M. by one of their
own family, who was awakened by the
explosion of a small barrel of,coal oil.
The furniture was nearly all saed. Mr.
Robert Robertson, the third son, in sav-
ing his watch, was nearly . suffocated
by the gas and smoke, which filled the
room, but by rushing to a window he
was rescued. The fire is supposed to
have originated from hot ashes. The
loss is estimated at $2,000; no insurance.
—The Enterprise, published in the vil-
lage of Chesley, Bruce county, says :
" About 60 head of cattle were brought
out to the fair on Saturday, 14th inst.
Between 40 and 50 of the animals were
sold at prices ranging from $24 to $38.
One or two of the buyers visited some of
the farmers a day or two before the fair,
and purchased 20 or 30 head. One far-
mer sold 4 steers and 1 cow for $233, and
a number of other farmers made some
veiy .good' sales. Some of the sellers,
thinking the prices offered not high
enough, drove their cattle home, intend-
ing to wait for the August fair, which is
expected to be even better than the one
held last week."
—A woman who lives near Guelph
was on Sunday afternoon burned in such
a shocking manner that her life is des-
paired of. It seems that the victim and
a male companion went out for a drive
together, and succeeded in imbibing con-
siderable liquor. While driving along
Elmira Road he dropped his cigar on her
light grenadine and in a few minutes she
was in a mass of flames. She was at
once rolled in the ditchsby her compan-
ion, but before the fire was extinguished
every stitch of her clothing except her
boots was burned off, and her body al-
most burned to a cinder. The victim
was at once removed to the hospital,
where she now lies in a critical position,
there being scarcely any hopes of her re-
covery.
—On the 13th inst.,the dwelling house
of Jonathan - Bone, 8th concession. of
Bruce, was burned down. The fire took
place in the night and had made consid-
erable progress before it was discovered.
A girl of about 15 and three children
were sleeping up -stairs, and the first no-
ticethey had of danger was the bursting
of the fire into the sleeping apartment.
Mr. Bone rushed up -stairs and took out
one child,but owing to the rapid. progress
of the fire he could not return. The girl,
with great presence of mind, dropped the
other little ones out of the window, and
jumped out herself, although the distance
to the ground was abont16 feet. With
the exception of a slight hurt received by
one of the children, who ` struck a plow
handle in the fall, no great injury has
been sustained,
—A sad accidenthappened the young
son of Col. Moffatt, of Woodstock a few
days since. It appears that the lad, who
is about 14 years of age, had gone ot:t to
spend a portion of his vacation at . the
residence of a comrade's father who lives
in Dorchester. The boys were having
plenty of fun in assisting to take in the
hay crop, and on the day named Tommy
was riding around in the wagons. A new
process of emptying a wagon has lately
come into use—that of by a huge fork
worked by pulleys, emptying a wagon
into a barn at some three or four lifts.
While one of these lifts were being hoist-
ed up, some of the fastenings gave way
and the fork, with its several hundreds
weight of contents, fell on the unfortun-
ate lad, crushing him to the ground, and
fracturing his skull. He was brought to
his father's residence, where he lies in a
very critical condition, but it is expected
that, notwithstanding the; severe injuries
sustained, he will recover;
—Messrs. J. L. Sturdy and J. A. May,
of Goderich, have patented a furnace,
which is likely to create a revolution in
the smelting business of this continent.
The furnace at present used consists of a
cupola, in which the ore is smelted by
means of a fire underneath and constant
trouble arises from the slag running into
the coals and forming clinkers. By the
new plan there are two small furnaces,
one at each side of the cupola, the heat
from which can be directed either into
the -base or up the sides of the cupola,
creating a more intense beat at a less
cost than by the old plan and obviating
the trouble of clinkers.' The heat, after
passing round the , cupola, is met by a
steam jet, which besides creating a
draught forces it through a perforated
wall, where it is thoroughly cleansed'
from all impurities and then passes under
two boilers, raising a two hundred
pounds pressure if necessary, and then
passes harmlessly, having expended all
its heating power, up the chimney and
passes off as an invisible, and unobjec-
, tionable gas. 1
—The annual meeting of the sharehold-
ers of the Brantford Young Ladies' Col-
lege took place on Tuesday of last week.
The Board of Directors, in presenting
their annual report of the educational
department of the College, congratulated
the stockholders upon the success that
has attended the labors of the 4principal
and teachers during the past year, and
the diligence and scholarship that have
- marked the students. The papers pre-
pared during the closing examination were
of a high order, and gave evidence ofla-
borious study, and a thorough knowledge
of the different studies brought under re-
view during the college year. Notwith-
standing the financial depression which
has so extensively prevailed in the coun-
try, and materially diminished the at-
tendance in similar colleges, the number
of boarders exceeded that of last year.
On examining the report the college was
founded be a success financially ae well,
there being a clear surplus of $700, after
deducting all outlay, &c. The faculty
for instruction for the past year has1Com-
prised Rev. Drs. Cochrane and Kemp,
the former of whom has taught classes in
old and new testament history, 'natural
theology,ecolesiatical history and the evi-
dences of Christianity ; also a staff of six
lady teachers, anda professor of music and
of drawing and painting. The total
number of students in• attendance last
year was 113.
Secrets oi# Success with Poultry
I am now keeping 800 hens and 500
chickens with satisfactory results. The
fowls are kept in separate houses, each of
which holds 50. There is a good range
in which the fowls mix together, but all
return to their own roosts at night. The
houses are sheds, 20x14, 8 feet high in
front, and sloping to _the ground at the
back, and having open lattice work at
each end for ventilation. The roosts are
moveable, 6 feet long, 2 inchei wide and
1 inch thick, and are frequently taken
down,cleansed and soaked with kerosene.
The sheds are kept thoroughly soaked
with lime -wash, with some carbolic acid
-in it occasionally. The sitting nests are
treated similarly, The feed consists of
shorts and bran, wheat and ,oats, boiled
beef heads, chopped cabbages ` and corn-
stalks, and boiled potatoes alternately.
Running water passes the `sheds and
coops. Eight hundred hens consume 10
pounds of wheat, and 20 pounds of oats
daily ; 26 dozen f eggs have been gath-
ered ineone day. The secret of success
is cleanliness, an a variety of good f od
and pure water. With theserequis tee
there need bf no allure.
