The land was 'wil1ei to her by her father, she to come into possession at the time of ' her mother's death. She has manifested a spirit of noble generosity rarely met with, in making a deed of 50 acres .to i each f her two brothers, who were not left a ybhing by the will of their father. —ckn Sunday night, 22nd ult., an at- tempt was made to burglarize at the house of Mr. Howey. Sr., Exeter. Mr. Howey was abseet from home, and af- ter M s. Howey had retired to rest for -the night, two men forced an entrance into the house, but Mrs. Howey was awakened by the noise and got up, when the burglars beat a hasty retreat. -On the same night an attempt was made to enter the house of Mr. Wm. Howey, on the same street. —One day last week, as Mr. W. 0. Fowler, of Wingha,m, was walking up -Josephine street, in that town, he pick- ed up a small box, which, on being -opened, was fouudr to contain 100 dyna- mite caps. The. caps are an inch in lengthand about the thickness of a lead pencil. One half is filled with dynamite and the other half with saw- dust. How these small yet very de- structive articles came there is a mys- tery, but it is altogether possible that they belong to some burglars who had come to operate on some of the mer- chants' safes. —Quite a commotion was caused in Exeter on Monday of last week by Dr. Hutchinson's " Galt Reporter" getting loose. The animal strayed into Atkin - son's stable, where he got between a span of mares, and became so mixed up intlae harness and created. so much dis- t tnrban e, that a crowd was soon on the sc( ene f aetion. Considerable trouble was found in getting him freed. from the maze of chains, tugs, and straps, into which he had become involved. In disentangling him, Mr. C. Sproal was slightlY bitten in the hand. He was freed in a high state of excitement, but otherwise nnb armed. —It is thought that the Insurance Companies in which the Exeter bend- ing fac ory was insured, intend, if cornz palled o do anything in the way of makin good the loss sustained by its burnin , to erect as good a building and famish it with metehinery equally as good a that -which was Mimed. A well own contractor has offered. to put up he building and have the fac- tory in complete running order in forty days fr m commencing the work, for $1,700. The burning of the factory is no dou • t a loss to the place as it was the means of bringing considerable money to the village, and afforded em- ploynae t for a number of men. . a • Usborne. A F &ADM ROBBED. --On Friday night last, a out 11 o'clock, three men enter- ed the dwelling of Mr. WM. Donnelly, a respzetable farmer of the township of Usbo e, adjoining Bid.dulph, and be- fore he was well aware of the fact, pro- ceeded to his bedroom, and securely bound 'Es hands with what was evi- dently a piece of a train bell -cord. Upon 1 eing asked their intention the - robber replied that they knew there was $410 in the house, tbat they want- ed it, a o d in case of refuSal, would. burn the ho se down. Mr. Donnelly tried to imp ess upon them that there was no moo ey in the house, upon which they fi ed two shots from a revolver over hi head, the balls of whichlodged in the vall in rather close proximity to -Donne y's head. Evidently this was only done to intimidate him, because they co (1 not have missed him if oth- erwise J spoeed. They then upset the content: of tWo trunks in the bedroom, but fo nd nothing therein to satisfy them. From thence they proceeded to anothe bedroom, occupied by Mrs. Donne y and a servant girl, who by this ti e were screaming loudly, having been al armed by the shots. They threate • ed. to shoot :the women unless they co -ered their heads. In this room was ai other trunk, which they ap- proaehel, and, after a diligent search, found i • it a leather pocket -book, which one of hem immediately took posses- sion cd, remarking that this was what they w re after. The pocket -book con- tained 132, the proceeds of some sale notes will "ch Donnelly had recently col- lected, nd which gave rise to the re- • porath t there was money in the house. Mrs. Donnelly was in a delicate state of health, I aving been recently confined, and the shock received has resulted in very se ous prostration. The robbery took pi= co about one mile from where a similar lOcurrence was enacted about a .year ap, a man by the name of Jones being t e victim to the.a,mount of $200 and a w• tch. Donnelly can give ne de- scriptio o of the burglars (they being heavily unified. up), further than that one of qhern was about six feet high; the oth r about five feet seven, very stoutly built and the third dwarfish in appeara ce. There was a further sum of $33, belonging to the servant girl, lying on the stand at the head of the bed, bu it remainednntouched. A Mrs. Fogarty -was also robbed of $240, a short time since, by men of a similar descrip- tion. here is work for a detective in that via nity. Morris.- Puns. Nate.—We copy the following paragra h respecting a recent resident of this t wnship from the Gazeye pub- lished_ i i Abilene, Dickinson County, Kansas. The paragraph says : -" Mr. Robert cCall, of Huron county, On- tario, vi ited our county last summer and pi chased the Mustard farm in Cheevei township. On Thursday of last we k his family arrived at Abilene, and on 'uesday night Mr. McCall, with Mr. Johnson, arrived with a car load. of tocle.- and household goods. Mr. McCall brought -with him a span of very fine Canadian draft mares, bred. from English draft stock. The mares weigh 1,400 pounds each, and are beauties. We also noticed. a lot of Leicester sheep, the wool on which ,measures from ten to fourteen inches; they axe as fine looking sheep as we have seen in the county. Messrs. Mc- Call & Johnson brought in the same car a large sized carriage stallion—well- bred from English carriage stock-16fr hands high; a fine horse,well proportion- ed,and o the same strain of stock horses that too-& the gold medal at the Centen- nial ex1iibition. The bringing in of Such stock will benefit our county. We hope that Mr. McCall and . family . will be pleased with their new home, and meet with a good. degree of prosperity in this fine new country." • EDUCATIONAL.—The following is the standing of School Section No. 1, Mor- ris, for the month of February: Senior division, fifth—ht Jeannette Traquair, 2nd Robert Newcombe; 3rd William Laidlaw.

Railway Meeting at Zurich. I . A large, influential, and enthusiastic meeting was held at Zurich on Tuesday evening of last week, to consider the ad- vantages to that village and the town- ship of Hay of the proposed railway line from St. Marys to Bayfield by way of Exeter and Zurich. Mr. C. F. Wag- ner was appointed Chairman and the meeting called to order. The Chair- man, afte.if a few preliminary remarks, called upend- Dr. .Buchanan, who, as first speaker, gave considerable infor- mation regarding the opinions of the people in the different municipalities through which the proposed line should pass'. He then discussed at some length both the advantages an:d disad- vantages a the expected line, and con- cluded by stating that it Would be of advantage to a sufficient extent to justi- fy them in. granting a bonus of at least $10,000 (which would be about $20 for each 100 acre farm in the township), but was oppesed. to granting a , heavy bonus, as it.veas the same in public affairs as private, viz., much easier to get into debt than to get out oat. Mr. Connor, Reeve of Bayfield, was then called upon, and in taking the platform spoke much in favor of the proposed line, and said that Bayfield wae,= willing to do all it oould. He thought that now was the time to agitate the quektion, as it had been started. Mr: John fl. .Geiger, ex -Reeve of Hay, spoke in favor of the railway, and contrasted the rapid rise of Hensall in coinparison to Zurich, which he attributed to the iiacreased railway advantages of the farmer, and would be in favor of a bonus ofi$15,000. Mr. Hunter, of Bayfield, spoke. very favorably of the scheme. He was fol- lowed by Mr. J. F. Moritz, a, member of the Hay Council, who made am able speech in German, referring to the great advantages of increased railway facili- ties to the farmers of the township, and to the maieufacturers and business men of the village. He is in favor of a 115,- 000bonus. Mr. Thompson, of Bayfield, spoke of the advantages to .raillers of direct railway communication -with the Eastern market. Mr. Heyrock thought that such a 'railway would. be of sgreat advantage to farmers. It would in crease the value of their farms and pro- duce, by giving them a betterenarket. Mr. D. Steinbach spoke of the advan- tages merchants would derive from such a line, 'tby /bringing them MO direct communication with the large, eastern cities, Where goods cOdld be bought cheaply and shipped to better advantage than at present. Mr. Barker advocated the -railway scheme and spoke in favor of granting a bonus. Mr. D. S. Faust spoke of the great advantages farmers would derive from the proposed line by the increased facilities it would afford for shipping cattle, butter, eggs, &c., and thought all parties should unite and do all, they p,ould to have the proposed railroad completed' , as . soon as. - possible. Mr. M. E crett,of Exeter, being present was next c lied upon and spoke of the great adv ntages Exeter had derived from the London, Huron and Bruce Railroad, and believed that the pro- posed line Would also be a benefit to that village, and said he was always in favor of improvements and would give the present scheme ..his hearty support. A Committee was then appointed, con- sisting of the following gentlemen: C. F. Wean& , p.' Steinba,ch, J. B. Geiger, l HenrybIle..r. pck, J. F. Moritz, Dr. Bu- chanan -a d W. Wilson, to see what steps coultd, be taken in the !matter. After a, veteof thanks to the chairman, the _meethg dispersed, well pleased with the railway prospects. At a sub- sequ.ent meeting of the Committee, Dr. Buchananwas appointed.. Chairman, and D. Steiebach, Secretary.. ' 'hirths. ROSS—In Exeter, on the 23d ult., the -wife of Mr. John P. Ross of a son.
