ing the stallion, and driving him up in-
to a fence corner, threw a bridle over
hishead and led him to the stable. The
animal was perfectly wild, and it is
almost a miracle that the doctor escap-
ed in such a remarkable maner without
getting seriously injured.
—One evening last week Mr. Luke
Trouse, of Clinton, had a narrow escape
from what might have been a fatal
calamity.' He had previously been tak-
ing medicine, and had also some car-
bolic acid in the house, which it, seems
was in a bottle similar to the medicine
bottle.; On the evening in question his
wife poured out what she thought was
his medicine, but what was the acid and
gave it to him. As soon as • he had
taken it the mistake was noticed_ and
Mrs. Trouse hastily went for the doc-
tor.- In the meantime, being thirsty,
Mr. Trouse took a drink of milk, which
neutralized the effects of the poison,and
on the doctor's arrival he was given an
antidote and vomited the poison from
his system. Had he taken a drink ' of
water instead of the milk, it would have
been impossible to save his life.
On the evening -of the 27th ult.,
Thomas Anderson, who for some years
past has carried on the shoemaking
business in Brussels, was stricken with
apoplexy, and although medical aid was
summoned, he died the same night.
Mr. Anderson was an industrious man
and early and late plied his avocation.
He was well thought of by those who
were intimately acquainted with hiin,
and his demise is regretted by a large
circle of friends and acquaintances.
Deceased had been for years a member
of the Orange body,an.d was buried with
the rites and ceremonies of that Order.
Orangemen from Ethel, Walton,Morris,
Grey and Brussels, followed the body to
the grave, and the services of the Erus-
sels band were secured for the occasion.
Deceased was 53 years of age.

MR. EDITOR,—Sir.: As a hot discus-
sion on the above subject is at present
in full blast through the columns of the
best local journal in Western Ontario,
viz., the HURON EXPOSITOR, perhaps you
will allow me to contribute my mite to
the _general fund of criticism. It is well
known that the late Chief Superinten-
dent, Dr. Ryerson, placed this king of
systems before the good people of On-
tario at least- thirty years ago as an op-
tional measure. The people hitherto
have been very slow to believe in its
superiority over the section system, as
we find in 1878 only four townships
taking advantage of its superior bless-
ings in Ontario. How long it may re-
quire to bring all the rest of the townships
in the Province into the fold I ,suppose
no living man can tell, put perhaps we
are living in a new. era. I see that all
our school inspectors, with few. excep-
tions, are very much in favor of this
(according to theirviews) paguenne of
systems.' If my memory serves me
right, mostly all the articles published
in THE EXPOSITOR for the last few
years on the subject chiefly dealt in de-
tails. It is true that we heard and read
even in the archives of the county in
glowing terms of the success of the
Tnckersmith Township School Board.
I think the proper way to reason the
question is simply to place the two sys-
tems side by side,/examine and judge
them thoroughly ; choose then which
you believe to:be -the best and what you
are able to pay. Some people say that
even education is only a marketable
commodity, and I think a large number
of the tax -payers of Tuckersmith are
firmly of the belief that they are paying
an exorbitant price for this commodity,
under the . wings of the Township
School Board. I am free to state that
I am paying at least thirty per cent.
more money towards education since
this golden system came into force than
before, and - no perceivable advantage.
So I call it without hesitation a bad
speculation.
o At its inauguration in Tuckersmith
in 1875, our law makers forgot M. make
provision for its abolition if not suit-
able to the wants of the people. Here
was a dead. lock until the amended
school act of 1878 made an opening, but
declared that we were -bound to try it
Still five years more, or in all eight
years, while any township in Ontario
adopting the system at the later date
could make a change in five years. We
the -tight this hard fare to be made
scapegoats among our neighbors, and
consequently pleaded for our rights be-
fore our law makers: Partial relief
came; but to our surprise we were told
that we had to secure a majority of
four wards constituting the township,
or, in plain words,` three-fourths ma-
jority, which is a law altogether at
variance with justice or British fair
play. It shows clearly and distinctly
-that the Minister of Education and his
advisers are determined to make an
effort to drive the people of this country
into a system at present hostile to their
feelings and wishes. Nothing better
could be expected, however, as the
Minister of Education, instead of con-
sulting and gleaning information from ,
the representatives of the people
through township and county councils,
I ani told from good authority that it is
school inspectors, teachers and non -
producers who are chiefly consulted.
With all due respect to inspectors,
teachers, and such' people, I say the
man who pays the money ought to be
consulted as to the best way of expend-
ing it even in education.
This centralization business is not in
harnouy with the political votes and
feelings of a large majority of the peo-
ple of Tnckersmith. I was going to
say, from time immemorial this pet
system of Dr. Ryersou's is something
like the following : First, Township
Boards ; next, County I3oar-ds, , and
lastly, Provincial Boards.Send ns
down here to Toronto 'the money and
we will attend to the rest of the ;busi-
ness. I would like to enlarge, but wait
for comments and coming events. Yours
truly, REVIEWER.

Live Stock Markets.
MONTREAL, March 9.—The arrivals of
beef by rail last week were unusually
light, being ; only thirteen car loads.
The offerings were so small to -day that
drovers did not require to take their
cattle to Viger market, as the butchers
were willing to go to Point St. Charles,
although they had to pay from c. to
1c. per lb. more for good cattle than
was paid a week ago. One feature of
to -day's market was the fact that
drovers were unwilling to tellthe
amounts received for their cattle, which
is generally the case when prices are
advancing. Fred. Ritchings sold.
eighteen cattle ; seven of these, the
smallest, were bought by R. Nicholson
at $44 per head, less $2 on the lot, or a
little over 40. per lb. R. J. Hopper
sold 23 cattle, and James Eakins sold
ten or a dozen more. There were no live
hogs on the market to -day ; sales of
live hogs were made last week •
at $4.75
per hundred pounds live weight, and
$ .50 dressed weight.
