I —The Brussels Post of last week says Our prediction about a wedding on the eta conoeSsion of Grey was ;verified on Wednesday of this week, When If.

After a pleasant drive the weddi•ng party•spent a very enjoyable • eversitigat Mr . Idab- kirles residence. , —The Clinton New Era o last week makes the following pert' ent grace plea : There appears to be an errone- ous impression in the amide of many , throughout the county that the powers . and duties of the Police blagistrate lex- tend to the personal investigation into. supposed violations of the Scott Act, and the instituting of proceedings against the violators. To save trouble and inconvenience, bothto the Police Magistrate and friends of temperance who are not aware ef the taue position of affairs, we desire to state that all such proceedings as the above must be taken by inspectors or other prosecutors, and that the duties' of the magistrate are to receive, hear and determine such informations as may be /aid:before him. He has nothing whatever to de with t hunti•ng up cases and videnee. —Mr. Thomas Wh te, a former resi- dent of Blyth, now residing at Bruce Mines, writes : "A sad affair happened k here to a man named Win. deans, for- merly of Wingham. He leftCockburn island on Friday morniag,February 26th, at the request of • his o wife, come to J Bruce Mines on the ice. A snow storm came up from the mall- est and it seems he got bewildered, chilled and exhausted. when within 'half, a mile of St. Joseph Island. The night coming on, the weather turned colder, with the mercury 26 degrees below zero. He was found Saturday evening frozen stiff and dead. He leaves a wife and six children in destitute circumstances. If this should meet the eyes of any of his Or her friends, they would be doing a kiadlyact to help them in their dis- tress." —One day last week a young man maned Daniel Joseph Donovan, went into Mr. W. Clegg's granary at the rail- way station at Winghpen, and while 'Mr. Henning, the weighmao, was absent for a few minutes, filled out a grain ticket fir $50, and presented it for payment at the store of Mr. E.1 R.

Enquiry was at onceanade, when it as found to be a forgery:, The young rascal was hunted up and Was fou•nd to be hiding ia the cellar of the Brunswick House. He was taken before Mayor Neilands„ and committed to Goderich jail to stand his trial for theft. The whole of the moneywith the exception of aiew cents, was foan.d on his person. —At the recent annual meeting of the ' directors of the West Wawanosh Mutual Fire Insurance Co., it was found that the business transacted by the company during the year was the largest since its fennation seven years ago. , From the report we learn that the total amount of insurance in force on ' the 31st of Decem- ber 1885, was $1,650,284.

Godericb one day last week. A team of borscs ,belonging to Wm. Oake, of Goderich township, took fright - while being driven from Davis' tin shop and ran away. The sleigh boaawas laden with a large Coo -king stove and a complete outfit of :tinware and Stove furniture. The driver lost control of the team and jumped out, and when they reached the Albion hotd center they took different sides of a telegraph pole, driving the tongue of the sleigh several inches into the pole. The '.har- lien broke, letting the horses loose, and the sleigh box and contents went through the air en masse, and were Spread over the sidewalk for several Yards and almost every article corn- pletely _ruined.

The Cunard steamer Oregon Wad sunk ! off Sandy Hoek early Sunday morning; . by colliding with another eteamer. Her passengers and crew Were saved, The Oregon carried 185 first cabin, 66 second cabin and 389 steerage passengers, and 205 of a crew all of whom were rescued by a passing draft and 'siva& on to New York. Thcre were 508 mail bags on , board, 69 were saved. All the .baggage was lost. There were :about 1,850 tons of: freight Valued at $250,000. The Oregon cost $1,250,000.. There seems to be considerahle doubt as to the possi- bility of raisiag the iiteamship, which lies about 90 feet under water. An Egg Country. Ancona -is a province on the Adriatic shbre of Italy, about the size of the State of Connecticut, and fr no the Vice Con- sul's report, is a good 4hicken country. There are exported of e gs, 520 car loads of 10 tons each, per pxThuin. That is equivalent to an a,vera e of 100 tons per week, equal to about 10,000 dozen. These eggs are all collected in the dis- trict, and sold on the spot at about 13 cents per dozen. The railway transit vanes from six to seven days, and the charges on a truck of 10 tons is $200. The trade is steadily growing, indicat- ing that there is profit in it. It amounts to about $1,300 per day. When will Ainericans ptodiice that many eggs for export or sale per day, on a territory of the same size i? • eessossoinaam A Baby's A4enture. Not long 4,go an Etiglish lady took passage on a 'vessel boand from Kings- ton, Jamaica, to London. A large, sarong and aCtive monkey on board thel vessel took a' fancy to the lady's child— a' babe about' two Months old. The • -monkey would folio* the lady from place to place, watching her as she -rocked and fondled heri little one. It so happened on ;a beautiful afternoon dur- the voyage that a distant sail attracted the attention of the 'passengers. The polite captain offered , his glass to the lady. She placed her ehild on the sofa, and had just,raised the glass to her eye when a. cry was heard. •Turning quick- ly she beheld a sailor in pursuit of the monkey, which had grasped the infant firmly with one arm and was nimbly climbing the shrouds. The mother fainted as the animal reached the torr of the mainmast. The captain was at his wit's end. He feared if he should send a sailor in pursuit of the monkey it would drop the babe and escape by leaping from mast Ito moat. Meanwhile the monkey wasl seen ta be soothing and fondling the child. After trying in many ways to lure the animal down, the captain ordered the men below and con- cealed himself on deck. In -a moment, to bis great joyahe saw the monkey carefully descending. ! Reachinabthe deck, it looked cautiohsly around, ad- vanced t'o the sofa and placed the child upon it. The captain restored the child to its mother, who was soon satisfied that her darling had eseaped without in- jury. • —Mr. David Gardner, of Avonbank, had rather !a serious adventure lately. As he was driving on to the bridge near Glengovvan mills with a grist the sleighs slid sideways on the ice with such force as to throw him and ...the load over the approach, the team running away with part of the Isleigh. Mr. Gardner fell a distance of nearly 15 feet,on the ice in the river and escaped without broken bones although the sleighs were badly smashed.
