DISTRICT MATTERS.
PASSED, -In the list of those who
recently passed their Normal School
examination for second-class teachers'
certificates we have pleasure in noticing
the nanies of Misses Killoran and Ed-
wards, of Seaforth, end Miss Sparks
ana Mr. James Dal`getty, of Stanley.
Misses Killoran and Edwards have also
had their certificates advanced, from
Grade B. to A., at the recommendation
of the examinera, in recognition of the
marked progress they had made during
their attendance at the Normal"School,
and the excellent manner in which they
acquitted themselves in the final ex-
amination.
INSTALLATION OF OFFICERS.—At the
meeting of Court Sherwood Forest' An-
eient Order of --Foresters, held on �Mon-
day evening last, the following off officers
were duly installed for the eneaing
term : S. Deitrich, P. C. R.; L. Thorne,
C. R.; Robt. T... Simpson, S. C. R. A.
Hendry, Treas.; John Finch, Secretary ;
Jas. Finlayson,. S. W. ; .Henry Town, J.
W.; A. Barton, S. B,.; Wm. Grieve J. B.;
Dr. Scott, Surgeon. This Col rt. has
now one hundred members i good
financial standing on its books a . d is
adding new members to its ranks nearly
every night of meeting. Theourt this
year ought to make a splendid'turnout
at the Foresters' Demonstration to be
held in Loudon on Monday, the 25th of
August.
A USEFUL WORK.—We have before
us a neat little work compiled and pub-
lished by Mr. E. N. Lewis,of Gode ich,
son of- Ira Lewis, Esq., County. Crown
Attorney for Huron. This is a manual
for the use of Magistrates, Coroners,
Constables, ci;c., and contains a vast
amount of useful legal information
compressed into the smallest possible
space. To Magistrates it would be of
especial value and might frequently
save hours of research through. the
various statutes besides being a safe and
useful guide for procedure, Judge Sin-
clair, of Wentworth, summarises its '
benefits in the following 'sentence :
ss As a means of ready and convenient-
" reference to many statutes scattered
" through many volumes of our legis+Ja-
" tion,oivil as well as criminal,this work
will be found of great utility. We
would strongly recommend every per-
son requiring to act in the capacity of
a magistrate to become possessed of
this excellent work. It will save him
many times its price in one year..
THE LATE THOMAS RITCHIE.—The
subject of the following remarks, which
we take from • the Galt Reformer of
last week, is well known to many of our
readers in this' county : "Mr. Thomas
Ritchie died on Monday evening last, at
the residence of his brother-in-law, Mr.
Thos. Dalgliesh. Mr. Ritchie, who was in
his 72nd year, had been in failing health
for some time, and hip demise was
hourly expected for several days. The
deceased. was a native of Peebleshire,
Scotland,; and. emigrated to this country
in the year 1831. He lived for -a short.
time in Dundas, but in the spring of
1832' entered the employ of the late Wm.
Dickson. He remained with Mr Dick-
son for two or three years, when, he
took up a farm in the Cedar Creek Dis-
trict. He was married to a sister of
the Messrs. Barrie, of North Dumfries.
She died some sixteen er seventeen
years ago, after which he rented his
farm and removed to Gait,living with his
brother-in-law, Mr. Thos. Delgliesh:
During the past few .years, the deceased
had not enjoyed the best of health, and
had taken several trips to the old con -n -
try with the view of recuperating. Mr.
Ritchie was a man of unassuming
habits and highly esteemed by all the
old residents. His familiar form will
be much missed in Galt,- where he was
a general favorite. The deceased had
two of a family, only one of whom
survives him—Mr. James Ritchie, of
Howick. 'His daughter, Mrs. Sudden,
died several years ago."
•
THE COU\TY EQUALIZATION.—A special
meeting of the County Council was held
at Goderich last week to consider the
best course to be pursued to sustain the
equalized assessment made by the
Council against the appeal to be tried
before the County Judge at theinstance
of the township of Usborne. The Conn-
ell had several sittings, but the reseit
of the whole is that it was agreed that
the Beeves of the respective munici-
palities be permitted to procure three
witnesses from each township, two
Lora each town and one from. each vil-
lage in the county to give evidence
before the Judge, and that the expenses
of these witnesses be borne by the
County as provided by statute in County
Court cases. Most of these ' witnesses
have already been examined, but it is
probable that the decision of the Judge
will not be given until about the first of
next month. The County is represent-
ed by Mr. J. T. Garrow, the solicitor,
and the appellants by Mr. Davidson.
This is the only true way of getting at
anything approaching an exact equaliza-
tion and therepresentatives of Usborne
are entitled to credit for the course
they have taken in the matter. It is
generally supposed th- -at a very consider-
able change will be made, especially in
the rural municipalities, as there has
long been a strong feeling, even among
the Councillors themselves, that the
newer townships in the north, have in-
creased more rapidly in value than the
older ones in the south, and that there
is a disproportion in the equalized
values in favor of the north. Our
northern friends, therefore, need not be
surprised if they be promoted and be
made to occupy a better position in the
eyes of the world. The Judges egnali-
, nation will, no doubt, serve as a guide
i for the Council for some years to come.
