--Last Friday tenders were epened
on behalf of the County Council for the
erection of a new bridge at Grand Bend:
Five were received. They ranged from
$6,275 to $4,997, for Howe wooden truss
bridge with stone abutment. At the

Wardens of Huron and Larribton,,with
the committee appointed by the Huron
County Council, coosisting of Messrs.

-At a meeting held on Tuesday
evening last week, to discuss thei ad-
• visabilityof organizing a Caleddnian
Society in Brussels, there wen altaost
unanimous opinion in favor of it. Steps
will be taken immediately to have the
society put in working order, and. as
there is no lack of the right kind of, ma-
terial for a Caledonian society in and
around the village, it cannot fail to be a
success. The meeting decided to have
the Caledonian games take place on
Thursday, the lith of September next,
the day following Lucknow games,Ifor
which full preparations will be made
and due notice given.
-The contractor for boring for salt
at Blyth having reached 1,100 feet, the
depth contracted for, without striking
the salt stratum, he has been re-engaged
to continue the process for some 200
feet further. This step has beea neces-
sitated from the fact that the level of
Blyth is some 150 higher than .any of
the neighboring localities where salt
has been obtained. Already indications
of the proximity of the salt rook have •
been found, and no doubt before the
latter contract has been performed, the
most ardent hopes of the proprietors
will be realized. '
-On Saturday last Mr. E. Doherty,
of Clinton, who travels for Mr. R. M.
Racey, tied_ his horse and buggy in ,
hout of Braemz's blacksmith shop,
North Exeter, while he was taking an
order. During his absence it is sup-
posed that a bee stung the horse (a
number being in the vicinity), and this
caused it to break away from its fasten- -
ings, when it then dashed into the
shop, over anvils, tools, implements and.
men, causing consternation, and carry-
ing the buggy near the rear of the shop,
where it became detached, badly
wrecked. The horse then massaged to
free itself from nearly all the harness,
and pranced around at a lively rate un-
til it was secured. Singular to say, the
horse sustained no particular injury.

sible. The operation was sucsessfuny

is doing as well as could be expected.

Miscellaneous.
• -The United States Consul at Con-
• stantin-ople announces the arrival of
Clark -and Bacon in, the Dorian, a boat
of only two tons, from Boston. The
voyage across the Atlantic in so small
a vessel has elcited great wonder in
Constantinople. They encountered a
severe storm, in which Clark nearly
lost his life.
-The zeal of the Prince of Wales
and the Duke of Edinburgh in favor Of
the Bill for legalizing the marriage
with a deceased wife's sister is said to
find inspiration in the wish of the Queen
that her daughter Beatrice should
marry the widowed Prince Louis of
Hesse, and take charge of the children
of her deceased sister Princess Alice.
-Laughter very often shows the
bright side of man. It brings out his
happier nature; and. shows of what
sort of staff he is really made. Some-
how we feel as if we never thoroughly
knew a man until we heard. him laugh.
We do not mean a mere snigger, but a
good, hearty, round laugh. The- solemn,
sober visage, like a Sunday dress, tells
nothing of she real man.
-We must consult the gentlest man -
Ler and softest seasons of address ; our
advice must not fall like a violent
storm, bearing down and making those
to droop whorn it is meant to -cherish
and refresh. It must descend as the
dew upon the tender herb, or like
melting flakes of snow -the softer it
falls the longer it dwells upon and the
deeper it sinks into the mind.
--In their flirtations the West Point
cadets carry themselves with perfect
grace, a large measure of assurance,
modestly expressed, and an air of fore-
ordained victory. For cool _gallantry
no one has yet eclipsed the cadet who
the other evening- promenaded down
the long line of ladies and gentlemen
gathered under the maples to witnese
the review, with the handsomest lady
of West Point, her white cloak flung
jauntily over his shoulder and his left
hand carrying the trail of her fleecy
dress. Some of his cop:trades gazed en-
viously on this original warrior and the
unclassified public with admiration too
great for expression.
-According to the Virginia City
(Nevada) Enterprise, a *freight train wias
stopped. between Reno and Wadsworth
the other day by an army of _crickets
which coveredsthe track for three or
four miles. When the engine struck
them it slid along a few feet and then
tra
stopped -the dead bodies of the ills
having the same effect upon the k
as though it had been greased. These
crickets are jet black, two inches M
length, and fat. They do no harm to
the crops. It is the opinion of the rail-
road men that the crickets took to tie
track beca,u.se the rails kept their heat
long afterniundown, when the ground
elsewhere'avas cold.
• -A lady in Portland, Maine, called
at a jewelry store, and after making a
purchase went home. Two hours later
a messenger called at her house and
informed her that she had left some-
thing at the jeweller's. "Now, let
me see," she mused, "what can it be?
Here is my pocketbook, and there on
the sofa is myfa, and I have got my
gold watch here, and my bonnet; why,
where is my bonnet? Oh, there it is on
the floor; it fell off the table -and
really I can't think what I have forgot-
ten -Why, to be sure! How absent-
minded I am! I declare if I haven't
forgotten my darling, precious little
babe I" And so she had -only that and
nothing more.

Live Stock Markets.
MONTREAL, June 30. -- The arrivals
during the past week were 79 carloads
of cattle, or 1,310 head; 127 sheep, 573
bogs, 20 horses, and one yoke of oxen.
Only a small proportion of the cattle,
hogs and sheep were shown on the
market here, the remainder being
promptly shipped to Europe. - Very
little business was done this morning at
St. Gabriel's as only between four and
five carloads were on market, the best
cattle being bought up for foreign ac-
count. Local butchers operated very
sparingly owing to hotweather. Prices
ranged from 40 to 5-1e, although it is
stated that for • some extra choice
anirnals,weighing between 1,590 to 2,000
115s., higher figures were paid. No hogs
were offered, but they aee said to be
worth three cents per pound live
weight.
