There is an annual close time, when, however, all who are caught taking a salmon are rigorously dealt with by the sheriff. Imagine, then, the consternation of a devout member of one (Attie kirks being caught fishing by the minister. With guilt stamped on his features, he stammered out: Noo- what-that, 1 mean, wha-what wrang is there in takin' a fish at &lose time, Mr. ?"

"Frances," said Aunt Pennifeather, in a terrible whisper, "are you asleep?" i I started from the bed. "Oh, no; what do you want ?" 1:. . - " I hate 110 have you get up," said she; peering OV r the banister at me, as peered up at her, "but there's some- thing in the bed. I think it's a mouse.' Now Aunt Pennifeather has an u - comfortable degree of moralcourag; and in that strength of spirit that 8 hol its own against grief and pain, or the great mysteries, she is magnificent ; h t confront her with a creeping thing and a child could lead her.

In the end the officers adorlted the latter ad. ice, and rode into the railings." A Western Pack Train. We have often heard of pack trains, but our ideas had never assumed adefin- ite form until it was onr good fortune to witness the packing and departure of fifty mules and three horses, with five drivers. The merchandise all having been previously collected and carefully packed (a labor requiring many days, as every whisky barrel must be enshrouded in burlaps, and other goods made into bales), the mules are led into a large open shed and placed opposite each other and facing the bales, upon which the weight of each is marked. The ani- mals are then called out of the ranks by their respective names, and respond by taking a step or two forward. Leather blinders are placed over the eyes of the animal to be laden ; then a saddle; cloth or blanket;, then the " aparahoes," im- mense pannier -like arrangements, se- curely fastened on by the united efforts of two men, while the mule, who is no novice in the basiness, resists their efforts as nut h as possible by puffing himself up, and making it difficult to accomplish the operation. The smaller animals are packed first and with the lighter goods, two bundles of correspond- ing weight being placed in opposite panniers. It requires two or three men ,to lift these burdens to their position, where they must be held until as many more strap and rope them. The mule, meantime, makes all the trouble he can, The Throat. The throat is a wonderful instrument of music. Place the fingers upon it, ancl every time you speak you can feel the vibration of the vocal organs, producing sound. Anything that even touches the throat impairs the purity of those sounds. Fling a cloth over the stings of a4violha or a piano, and get music out of it if you can. So every cloth which surrounds the throat impairs the sweetness' of the voice. Women go with necks are;bmen have theirs swathe4 and bandaged, and ten women have sweet voices where one man has.

We have grown it now for two seasons and have thoroughly tested its good qualities and are now in a posi- tion to recommend it to our brother farmers as one of the best verities of six rowed barley ever introduced into the county .of Huron. The points of superiority over the common variety are as follows: It grows longer and coarser straw and in regard to stiffnees it is more like aheat straw than that of barley, consequently it stands up splendidly. It has a longer head, a larger grain, and will yield at the lowest calculation 10 bushels per acre more than the common Veriety of burley, besides it is recommended by the brewers -as being equal to the common barley for their purposes. A sample of the said barley will be left at J. Brovanell's grocery store, Sea - forth, for inspection. : All orders sent by mail can be addressed to Brucefield or to Seaforth P. 0., which will receive prompt attention. , It. & G.
