Captain Gamble was educated in Upper Canada Collegt, and was very popular here. -Mr. Archibald McMillan, of West Nissouri, died last week at St. Marys. • lie was 91 years of age. Mr. McMillan was a native of Kintyre„Argyleshire, Scotland, and came to this country many years ago, being on of the pi- oneers of Ontario. Two of his eons were killed in the American War. One of them was an officer in the Federal Davy. -A Galt excursionist visiting Cleveland, speaks of the evidences of returning prosperity which are noticeable on every band. Every branch of industry across the lines seems to have taken a step on- ward. The cries of hard times which have been heard throughout the length and breadth of the land during the past few years have become less and less distinct, and now are almost unh,eard, or if heard at all, reverberate very Otint- ly. The returning good times in ' the States must have their natural effec,t on this country. -The following shows the rapid in- crease in the exportation of horses from Montreal to the United States, and is furnished by the Consul -General- for each year, ending with the 30th of June: Year.

It is stated that writings are already prepared. -Prof. Young, in his lecture before the Teachers' Institute at Toronto last -week, stated in effect that the teacher's " pets " at school, that is those pupils who at an early age show remarkable aptitude in learning, generally turn out to be very indifferent men and. women, intellectually -speaking, and the reason is that advantage is taken of their , youthful prkocity to " cram " and therefore dull or exhaust their brain be- fore it has reached anything like proper development. It is a significant fact in this coniseAion that Hon. M. C. (now Judge) Cameron, when a student, was eleven times plucked during his Uni- versity career. -The general failure of candidates at the -recent third-class examinations is a naatter of general comment through- out the Province, the number of those who passed being variously reckoned at a third, a fourth, or a fifth of the whole. The arithmetic and grammar papers are chiefly blamed for the slaughter, and the usual disposition to find fault with these is evinced. It commonly happens at teachers' examinations that there are one or two papers en which a great number come, to grief, and it is more natural to infer that these papers are made unnecessarily- severe than that candidates from all parts of the Province come up unprepared. on the same subject. -The Hamilton City -Council have agreed to submit a by-law for the con- , Bideration of the ratepapers for the pur- pose of granting a bonus of $30,000 to the Wellington and Georgian Bay rail- way scheme.

The terms upon which the bonus is asked is that one half of the amount be paid when the fast train reaches Durham and the re- mainder when the line is completed to Owen Sound. `- Births.

MONTREAL, Aug. 25.-A -number of cattle sales were made to -day, but the market could scarcely be in a moreun- satiafactory condition, some dealers having to accept much lower . prices than they could have cot for the same 11,TI stock last week. J. Dennis sold his load of twenty heacl as follows: two steers, 92;$ 2 do., $94 ; cow and steer, $78: five other butchers' cattle, $190: 3 do. 075 ; 6 4o.,$30 each and $5 over. L. W. Taillefer bought 5 cattle at about 3c. 3. Aikens parted with his load at $35 per head and 25 hogs at $4 60 per cwt. F. W. Ritchings had a very un- pleasant venture, being compelled to sell 24 at $40, $15 per head loWer than he purchased the animals for in the West. Mr. Bonner sold 20 head at the same price. He was offered $53 each, for the same cattle in Toronto lately. Mr. McShane and other shippers bought very few cattle lately as the market price in England is low-er. There is yet good shipping cattle in parts of Western Ontario; but no attempt will be made to ship them at present rates. A lot of 62 boat's were bought for W. Head, at $4 60 to $4'80 per cwt. J. Elliott suc- ceeded in disposing of 11 head at $35 each, and 8 head at $45. Arrivals since Monday 'last :-Sheep, 6,150; cattle, 1,080; hogs, 347; horses, 23; mules, 24.

A NEW DEPARTURE B V MCiNTYRE & WILLIS Dealers In and Manufacturers of BOOTS AND .SHOES SEA.F'ORTH, ONT. We would respectfolly announce to our customers and the publie generally that we have concluded to niscoN- TINUE THE CREDIT BUSINESS. Our reasons for this deternaination will be found fully set forth under the follow- ing headinge • 3E3 _A_ ID ID EJ JE3 'I' S. While doing a credit bitsiness it is impossible to avoid contracting bad debts, for the reason that if credit is given to one man his neighbor expects it also, and if refused will be offended. When the goods are required, the cus- tomer may be perfectly solvent, but owing to unforseen events, may be bank- rupt before the time for payment ar- rives. Every business man.who does a credit business loses,. annually, large sums in this way. These losses have to be made up by good paying customers. If these losses- were not incurred the goods could be sold at just so much less profit, as the good. would not be requir- ed to pay for goods purchased by the bad payers. We have determined to avoid these bad debts in future, and.give our customers the benefit. Nearly every business man who becomes insolvent, his bad debts were at the bottom of his misfortunes. - LONG WINDED PAYERS: There is another class of custoniers which attach, to the credit . system, and which may be designated as "long winded payers." These are perfectly good for all they buy, but require from one to three years' time. The only way that such custbmers can be made to pay promptly is to sue them, and this is an alternative which no business man likes to _resort to. These long winded cus- tomers are numerous, and as the trades- man has to pay cash for his stock and wages, on account of there, he must bor- row money with which to meet his pay- ments. For this money he must pay heavy interest.! This interest he adds to his selling price, and thus, again, the prompt payer ie taxed for the negligence of his longwinded neighbor. We intend to avoid this injustice in our business hereafter by rTiring all to pay cash. Both the ready payer and the long wind- ed customer will find the benefit of this system, as they will both get their goods cheaper. BENEFITS OF THE GASH SYSTEM. The tradesman who sells for cash and turns over his money rapidly has always ready money on hand, and is in a posi- tion to take advantage. of the hest mark- ets. Whereas, if his capital is locked up in the pockets of his customers, he is forced to buy from those who will trust him, and at their prices. Cash purch- asers in the vvholesarle market can save a large percentage, and the competition rade forces him to give his custom - he benefit of this saving. STOCK FOR SALE.

Add reset BAXTER & Co., Bankers, 17 Wall -street, New York. 587-52 There is another class of customers who always infest the credit dealers, viz.: The Lazy, Thriftless, and Extrav- agant. These will purchase all you will sell them. Their intention to pay is perfectly good at the time, but owing to their unfortunate habits they never get enough ahead to pay old scores. Under the cash system these would be compelled to pay as they go, or not "go', at all. By cutting off this class also, a very great saving would be effected to the cash buyer, and, in addition, the community as a whole would be largely benefitted. We have thue put forward a few of the many benefits which will accrue to customers from the adoption of the cash system. We will now state what we intend doing ourselves: FIRST -On and after the 22nd of September our books will be closed, and from and after that date no credit. will be given. No exceptions to this rule. SECOND. -We will mark our goods at a figure so low that no dealer who does not do a strictly cash business can comtke with us. Small profits and quick returns will be our motto. T IRD-We will keep, as formerly, all g ades of work, including our own man facture. Our stock, for variety and hoice, is unsurpassed in this sec- tion cf the country. '1 FOURTH - We are determined to collect all outstanding debts forthwith, and all long-standing accounts will be placed in Court without further notice. FIFTH -In our new departure. we expect to be even more liberally sus- tained than in the past. We call upon all who pay their way, and who want to get the best value for their money, to aid us in doing away with the pernici- ous credit system, by extending to us their custom and paying their money. We will make it well worth their while to do so. MCINTYRE & WILLIS, " Main Street, SEAFORIJI.
