Judge Squire nodded consent to acljonrn all the cases on the list. Ont of some fifteen cases the evidence o only one was commeiaced but not co eluded. Lawyers, plaintiffs and defendants all agreed to have their cases stan adjourned. even at great expense and inconvenience to them- selves. The large hall was nearly filled by spectators and suitors, and all seem- ed disgusted with the show. The Judge was ut into a single buggy, leav- ing town nt the afternoon, with men in no better sltate than himself, and start- ed for Blyth. Sinoe then the Judge'a County Court and Sessions. The County Court and general Ses- sions of the Peace were opened on Tuesday of last week before his ilopor I. F. Toms. The grand jurors were sworn in, and Mr. T. W. Detlor chosen as foreman. His Honor addressed the jury beiefly on the lightness of their duties at this session, and referred to the discussion now carried on in the press and legal profession for the abolition of the Grand Jury, system. There was, he stated, large difference of opinion, but for himself he thought the fact that a large proportion of the criminal cases now tried before the Judge during the interim of the seseions rendered the duties of the Grand Jury so light that we could well dispense with what was now an expensive luxury. The petit jurors list having been called, the cases were proceeded with. The following is their disposition: Ross v. Walker. Action on promisory note; undefended issue. Verdict for plaintiff -for 462.45 and immediate ex- ecution granted. McDougall et al v. Grand Trunk Rail- way Company. An action for not carrying a shipment of apples from Seaforth to Glasgow according to con- tract. The defence was that the Grand Trunk Railway Company were relieved of their liability when they delivered the consignMent to the Don- aldson Steam Ship Line. The vessel was to have sailed on the 12th of No- vember, but owing to necessary repairs td her machinery she did not leave till the 8th of December. Verdict for de- fendants. The following appeals came before His Lordship: • McLean v. Currie: Appeal against a conviction made by C. Crabb, for ob- structing the sidewalk. No appeal allowed, and conviction •therefore sus- tained. Tenant v. Kruse. Constable Kruse, of Blyth, charged Tennant with selling tea without license in Blyth, and he was convicted by W. Wilson, J. P., under the county by-law. Conviction quashed with costs. In this case the county will have to pay the costs amounting to about e80. Yates v. Swartz. Conviction made by John McGarvor, 1J. P., of Clinton, and D. A. Forrester, Mayor, for unlaw- fully selling liquor. Conviction sus- tained. The Criminal cases were as follows: Queen v. John Denham. Felony, in maliciously destroying a note. The Grand jury found a true bill. On the case beipg tried, a verdict of not guilty was given, as the Judge held that fraud was not proved, the defendanthaving a claim on the note. Queen v. John Denham. A mis- demeanor in fraudulently destroying valuable papers. Same result as above. Queen v. James Walwin and Fred- eriek Ahrens. Assault. Prisoners were called but failed to appear. ' The Grand Jury made their present- ment and were discharged. Good Templars in Session. The East Huron District Lodge of Independent Order of Good Tempters held their regular quarterly session in •the Templar's Hall, Gorrie, on Friday, • the 9th inst. Quite & large number of delegates from the, various lodges in the district were, present, but the at- tendance was not so large as _would have been had it not been for the bad roads. At the appointed hour the • meeting was organized by the appoint- ment of a chairman and a committee of two to arrange a • programme for the afternoon session. At the afternooh session the following questions were discussed: 1&t.—'Is Temperance gaining ground ?" Opened by J. W.

Opened by W. Simpson, folldwed by J. Stevensop, J. Clarke, Wesley Quillen and, B. Wallace. After Considerable diScnssion it was decided by the District Chief Templar that it was not right at any time to do wrong that good may follow; therefore it was not lawful for a Good Templar to adopt any such means. 3rd ----eWhich is the extent of our obligation ?" Opened by B. Wallace, followed by W. Simpson, J. Stevenson, W. H. Smith and W. Quinell. After considerable had bwt een said th regard son and B. Wallace. After a sterner what warm and lengthy discussion it was decided that they should both be avoided, as the tendency of both was to evil, and evil only. After some lodge businees was trans- acted it was deeided to hold the next session at _Loyal •Temple- on the first Wednesday in March, 1882. Temple then closed in due form. In the evening a pnblio entertain- -ment was held, at which a full house attended.

I am now introducing a new machine for dairying, called the Champion Cabinet Creamer, whith all butter makers and lovers of good but- ter should call and examine. It raises all the cream between milkings ; saves two-thirde of the labor; increases the yield of butter; improves the quality; quadruples the value of ski!milk and will pay for itself twice or more every season. The Cabinet Chempion Creamer system is the only uniform dairy method of making butter in existence, and an examination of this new invention is respectfully solicited. • O. 0.
