The Bev. J. W Spading, M. A., B. D., Methodist minister, has had conferred upon him by the Evansten, Illinois, University, the degree of Doctor of Di- vinity. Mr. Spading is an educated end polished, speaker, and as a pulpit orator is very` popular. He has reach- ed his present exalted poSition through his own unaided efforts, and is, there- fore, the greater honor to his native town. We congratulate the Rev. Dr. Spading. : —Mr. Andrew B. Baird was ordained minister of the Presbyterian Church on Tuesday last week, at Motherwell. Notwithstanding the busy season, the church was crowded. Rev. Messrs. Scott, Hanailton, Waits and Wright took part in the interesting service. Having been appointed to missionary service at Fort Edmonton, 900 miles west of Winnipeg, Rev. Mr; Baird started for his new field on Monday last. Educationally he is well equip- ped for his ministerial duties, having distinguished himself highly at the To- ronto University and in Edinburgh, and physically he will no doubt be able to stand the rigors of the climate and the hardships incident to organizing mission fields in the "great lone land."

Willis, of Hay, shipped from this station on Monday a car load of cattle.—Mr. Thomas Bal- lantyne also shipped on tbe same day a car load of pigs. _ NEW SaRence.—The Rev. H. E. Hill, Canada Methodist minister of this place, intends holding service every Sabbath evening in the Centennial Hall here. Mr. Hill is evidently not afraid of work, and intends looking after the epiritual interests of his people and welfare of the church in our rising village. ffABRATH SCROOL PICNIC. -The St. Paul Sabbath School picnic comes off here on Thursday, the 25th inst. The teachers, scbolars and friends of the Sabbath School meet in the church at 7 o'clock, and from there proceed to Bayfield where the day will be spent. We wish them all a very enjoyable time. TROTTING RACE. —Quite an interesting an exciting trotting race took place here on Saaueday evening, between two fast trotting I horses, well known in sporting circles as "Black Hawk" and "Irish Sall." The former is owned by Mr. T. 3. Wilson and the latter by Mr. S. A. Wilson.' In the first heat Black Hawk nobly took the lead fer a consid- erable distance, and. it was thought by all present that he would prove an easy winner. But at the three-quarter pole Irish Sall put on a magnificent burst of speed, and, amidst the wildest cheering, passed under the home wire. Neck and neck in the second heat was now looked forward to with great in- terest, and in a very few minutes the horses were once more in position and the word "go" rang out on the evening air. Both horses at once struck out at a rapid rate, but it was soon noticed that Irish Salt Was taking the lead, and her fine action, and gait were the subject 1 of much praise. But ere Irish Sall reached -the winning post, it was Black Hawk's turn this time to turn the tide of affairs, and Putting on an unparalleled burst of speed she quickly closed in on Black Hawk and once more amid the wildest enthuaiasm the horses passed under the wire neck and neck. As the shades of _evening were now fast gathering, it was found impossible to again test the speed. of the horses, and the judge, Mr. Thomas Bradey, who gave the very best satisfaction and proved himself the right man in the right place, deplared the race to be an even one or.draw. ' After all had partaken of th refreshments provided, the crowd dis, ersed in a quiet and orderly manner, well pleased with the evening's sports, and more than pleased with the speed of the horses. PROm Nev,uas.—In the EXPOSITOR of August 5th, under the head of our Hensall correspondence, we published an account of some remarkable quilting done by two young ladies in the vicinity of Hensel]. This week we received from the far distant Nevada the follow- ing communication which will doubt- less interest and amuse those who may read it. Our correspondents are well able to set forth their own merits, and if any further inquiries are deemed necessary, we ihave no doubt "my part- ner Levi" will be fully equal to the task. 1 !
