Mr. Taylor hu been a resi- dent of Blyth for nearly a year, and he had sacceeded in establishing a very lucrative business in his trade, some - tunes employing as many as eight hands. We state upon reliable authority that be has lett his wife, with whom he has been living about three years in ';very •destittite circumstances, He left Satur- day morning early, and it is reported, WU seen in London that day: He leaves a number of creditors to Mourn his departure, to the amount of some :anar ltirs. Taylor left for the home of .her prents on Wednesday. - he Brantford Expositor says : A son of Sir Richard Cartwrighteit may, not have been generally known, has beenemployed as a carpenter in the Grind Trunk shops here for about two months. Saturday's Gazette; however, contained the announce- ment Of ' his appointment to a• good position in connection with the Milt tery School at Winnipeg. Mr. Cart- wright served in the Northwest, holding a lieutenancy in a company of the celebrated Midland Battalion. He was at Batocite, and took part in the famous charge. A graduate of King- ston School, he is qualified for this now position.' He was a steady workman while here, somewhat reticent as .to himself, and was generally liked by all with whom he was brought in contact - --e-A Brussels correspondent says A case of some note in this place, gnd iirbleb caused a good deal of comment at the tirae, has just been -settled. Some time ago a gentleman, who was residing here, but since removed, subscribed $100 towards paying off an indebtedness on the Episcopal church. The subscription was never paid, and finally suit was en- . tered in the Division Court for its re- -coverer. The epee came up for trial at the last sitting of the court here, before Judge Doyle. The plea of defendant was that the subscription was coodition- al on the - entire debt being wiped off, ' but plaintiffs maintained that no such proviscrwas attached. After taking the evidence on both sides, the judge re- served decisiOn but we understand that he has since given it in favor of defend- ant. 1 -The Clmton New Era says: The executors of the estate of the late John Hodgenshave decided to close up the business in this town. Thig is being done for two reasons, viz : 1st, one of the executors residing away fromtown cannot give the attention he would like, tea business of this nature, and in the second place, the present able manager of the estate, Mr. John Callender, de- sires to remove to St. Thomas, where he purposes engaging -in bizainess on his own behalf. The estate _will therefore -be wound up by the lst-of March next. We are certain that the announcement a made, of the peospective. removal from our midst of Mr. John Callender, will be received with very general regret. He has -now been a residentof our town for manyyears'in fact, has " grown up" with it, and during that•time has made many werm friends. However, they will be glad to bear of his continu- ed progress and prosperity in the smith - ern city; -An Usborne- correspondent says :- A week ago last Thursday, -Mr. Thomas Nor -thy and Miss Charlotte Front were united in the holy bonds of matriniony at the Elimville parsonage, and during the evening of the same day a party of invited guests spent a very pleasant time at the residence of the bride's father in this township. All went wells until the time to depart, when it was discovered that_ one of the wheels be- longing to Mr. Pogsley's buggy had been taken off Diligent search was made for the missing wheel, but it was not found till the following Sunday morning, when it was noticed on the premises of a neighoor close by. We understand Mn Pogsley knows pretta, nearly , who the guilty parties • are; as one of thern by his footmarks is known to wear Weewam " boots, another by the amount of dried clay that was scat- tered by his path and another by the "buffalo fae- that could be traced 'along his line of retreat. -The Wingham Tinle'S of last week says :-The many friends of -Mrs..W. Brockenshire, of this town, will be pleased to learn that the operation that she underwent last Friday at the To • ronto general hospital was most success- fully performed. Dr. Temple with his assistants succeeded in removing the ovarian tumor, which weighed over 24 pounds, and there is every indication that Mrs: Brockenshire will soon be com- pletely well. The operation was a most difficult and critical one. Mrs. Brock- el:IS-hire was placed under the influence of ether at 11 o'clock in the morning and did not regain consciousness until 4 o'clook in the afternoon. 'When she avvoke the operation was over with, and she waS comfortably ensconseed in bed. She stood the operation wall and did • not experience a partible �f pain. Mr. Brockenshire returned home on Tuesday evening, but Mrs.. Brown will remain with her daughter mita she is ready to return home. Naturally the patient is very weak, having partaken of no sa '1 food since the night previous to the op- eration, nor will she bespermitted to c so until some time nett weea. Ever provision has been made for her comfort, she has a large ward to herself, and be- sides the attending physician and her mother a skilful nurse has been en- gaged to wait upon her. The symptoms are good in her case, and the doctor an- ticipates that she will be able to return home in the &mine of five or six weeks. This wia be pleasing intelligence to .anany people in thia town, as all hopes of 'her incovery had beet given up. desaeeeneanara's____ • -Peter VanKeuraa, tat old farmer living in Middlesex county, was swindled out of $700 by a couple of grey-haired sharpers on a Grand -Trunk ti aM be- tween Windsor and Lendon. Peter met the strangers in Detroit the night 'pre- vious. They represented themselves as lumber dealers from Teronto on their way home. Peter was pleased at hav- ing them for companions to London. When one of them mentioned that a raortgage on a piece of real estate owned easa =-7,1 by him at London was due that day, and that he would like to borrow $700 foal) few days in order to cancel it, the nosuspecting old farmer consented to accommodate him. The money was passed over and Peter got a fraudulent deed of the land as security. The pair gave him the slip at London. Sabbath Desecration. t BROOMFIELD, Nov. 9th, 1885. • To the Editor of TIMHORON'BrPOSITOR. MY DEAR SIR,a-Fer the last six Sab- baths we have ben pained to the heart to hear and see a railway traits running up and down on the Lord's day, Un- less something is done it is evidently to become a regular thing. I write now to you for information on some points that are not clear to myself, and I hope it will not be too much trouble to answer my questions plainly and simply, eo that those, who want to guard our preci- ous Sabbath may know just where and how' to work, First -Does our law as it now stands forbid the Sabbath labor in- volved in the running of that train, or does it allow it? If it allows it, :further questions are unnecessary. It is with the law and the law -makers we have then to do. But if it forbids it I would like to know. Secondly -Dees our law as it now stands make: provision for its own enforcement as regards these Sab- bath trains; or is it lame in this respect? - If it is defective here, further question is again unnecessary. It is again. with ,the law and the law -makers that we have to do. But if tae law is complete land sufficient, please explain. Thirdly '-What are the steps which a Christian magistrate Would need to take to put a' stop to the train? If our Thanksgiving Days axe not to be turned to fast days these trains must be stepped. Hoping you will take up the subject earnestly; I remain, my dear air, yours sincerely, •A. R. [N. B. -In reply to our correspondent we be - Belie that the law as it now stands is not suffi- cient to cover the case, and that the companies cannot be prevented from running their trains on Sunday. We suppose the employees could be prosecuted -and , punished for working on that day, but this would be unfair and harsh, as they are given the optOn of doing as directed by the company or leaviti the service. Parliamenthas been petitioned time and again for such legisla- tion as would secure an abatement of the nuis- ance complained of, but as yet a deaf ear has been turned to all appeals. In order to secure remedy the people- must bring pressure to bear ' upon their representatives. --ED.
