Ilard Times and Bad_ Roads.
A WentWorth farmer, in 4. very gen.
sible letter to the Hamilton Times, giveg
sonic) excellent -suggestions On the ques-
tion of road. making and. statute labor,
and as peach of what he pays- is ap-
plicable to this section as well as to the
.cotmty of Wentworth, we reprint the
following extraet :
"Of all the refornas needed for the
bettering the condition of i4stir country
at the present time, I know of none
more -argent than in the management
of our public roads. We hear much
of hard. times,' and doubtless many
feel that they are so. But the remedy
(to some extent) is in our oWn bands, or
the bands of those who legislate for us.
In this part of the country there- is
much farm produce (wood, lumber, &c.,)
that has been waiting for months to get
to market, but the state Of our roads
utterly prevents it. Thus both city and.
country are suffering front the conse-
quent stagnation. I believe many of
our coun.try people, who have never
been accustomed. to anything better,
think that because it has 'always been
so it must of necessity continue so un-
til we can macadainize all our roads,
which, of course, will be oat of the ques-
L tion for a long time to come.
"No kind of road ever ean be kept in
repair by such means as are now in
use among us. 'Unless you have lived
in the country, Mr. Editor, I doubt
if you have any idea of how the thine
is done, or rather I should say, not
done.
" I beg to inforrct you then that, first
houses in each place havingbeen struck
with lightning, and the roofs of several
others were blown off with the wind.
-Mr. F. Andersonliving on the town
line between Fullerton and. Blanshard,
was leading one of his horses to water,
one day lately, when the horse turned
restless, and becoming entangled in the
halter, stumbled and fell forward to the
earth, knocking Mr. Anderson down and
rendering him insensible. Mr. Ander-
son lay for some time under the hors'e,
before he was released, when it was dis-
covered the animal was dead, having
broken its neck by the fall.
-Ex-Governor Wilmot died suddenly
at Fredericton, New Brunswick, on
Tuesday afternoon. Mr., Wilmot on
reaching home after a drive walked. in
his garden. Feeling a slightpain. inthe
region of the heart, he went into the
house and in five minutes was a corpse.
Dr. Atherton was in imnaediate atten-
dance, but Mr. Wilmot never spoke af-
ter reaching his room. The doctor says
thatthe rupture of a blood vessel was
the immediate cause of death. The de-
ceased was seventy years of age.

would laugh at his -misfortune, he hav-
ing paid higher prices to the farmers for
these cattle, and paid. also or trans-
porting them 250 miles, with the cost for

Campbell, of Point St. Charles, had. a

ased. in the Eastern township; he Sold
two of the best for$90, and ak,ther for
$42. A. habitant had. a 'very fine cow
for sale which he was asking $80, but he
did not find a purchaser.: Several
pretty good cows ,were sold at from $35
to $40 eaCh, and small cows at from
$20 to $30 each.' Fred. Ritchings sold.
thirteen steers at $65 each. Col. Sin-
clair sold several head. of very good
small cattle, at from $32 to 840 each, or
from 3e to 1-ic per lb. There was a
very large number of bulls Offered, but
they are difficult to sell at any pride.
Fat.cows belonging to milk en were
also numerous, and were sold. at from
$25 to $35 etsch,or from: 2ic t; 3fc per lb.
L Richard bought three sup rior calves

scheme, the taking of live hogs to Brit-
ain on a sailing 'vessel. Last Thursday
Ald. MeShan.e shipped 36 cattle by the
sailing ship " Glenfinart " to Glasgow;
this also is a new experiment. The
other shipments of cattle last week
were 90 head on the steamer "-Thames"
