At about 44 a. m., his mother awakened, and find ng his bed empty, aroused the family and went in search, when he was found in the open barn with his limbs badly frozen. He was at once conveyed to th house, and lingered in agony until Wednesday even- ing, when he died. -During the last two years a series of thefts have been committed in the vici- nity of Topping, but as yet no one has been able to locate the Miseipg articles or the parties who are coraMitting the depredations. Farmers have from time to time lost grain, meat, harness, imple- ments, &c, in the dead of night, and no clue could possibly be obtailned. 4Last spring Mr. John Henry had set the largest, ever seen in this part of the , a of single harnes 'stolen, and ;again last country. There were nearly seven Friday night his double harness, collars, hundred people in the procession, and bridles, &c mysteriously disappeared. over two hundred of these were ladies. . Thinking it about time to look into such To show the esteem in which deceased was held by his co-workers in the minis- try,we may say that there were thirteen clergymen present. The congregations in Sorra, East Williams,KinCardinej, and Ashfield, to which Mr. Ross frequently ministered, were all represented. ft Mctionald, R. S. aod Treas. ; Wm. Chapman, Con.; John 'Cummings, War; den. The object of the above degree is moral purity, abstaining from indecent language, immoral literature, and the treating of the fair sex, as mother, wife and sister alope should be treated. ENTIERTAINMENT.-An entertainment under the auspices of the Brucefield choir will be held in the church on Tues- day evening, March 22nd. Mr. Burkess, t& celebrated ventriloquist, will be present. In, addition, a good programme of songs, recitations, &c., is being pre- pared. We trust there may be a large attendance. A good time is expected. A LARGE FONERAL.-The funeral of the late Rev. John Ross, on Thursday ofr last week, was one, of the largest, if not proceedings, Mr. Henry ,secure the services of constable McCarthy, of Strat- ford, who, with a search warrant went through the premises of all, suspicious persons in the neighborhood but without avail; it is still as much wrapped in mystery as ever. Gorrie. LOCALITD1S.-Mr. W. W. Mason, of Harriston, is in our village in the inter- ests of the Royal Templars of Temper- ance. It is hie intention to organize a Council of this Order in Garrie. Only total abstainers are permitted to join this society; but as there .are many of such in and around our village, we think Mr. Mason will have no difficulty in organizing with a large char ter member- ship. -Mr. J. W. Green, formerly editor of the Howick Enterprise, has purchased a plant in Parkhill, where he has been running a paper for soene time. -This is the season for parties. -Mr. Dor- land, who has been a resident of our vil- lage for 12 or. 13 years, has removed to Owen Sounde-s-Mr. Jas. Ague*, who assisted in booting the people of C.tsorrie and surrounding country for Dearly ten years, has moved to Orillia. His gentle- manly manner and strictly honest deal- ing won for him many warm friends, who very ratieh regret -his departure. May prosperity accompany_ him where - ever he goes. -Miss May 'Rogers and Miss S. J. Walker are convalescent.-_ Mr. White, Provincial organizer for the Canadian Order of Foresters, attended the meeting of the Gerrie Court on Mon- day night last and delivered an interest- ing address. , Harlo Gk. PRESENTATION. -Last Friday evening rge number of the neighbors gather - at the house of _Mei. John Torrance, who leaves for Manitoba in a few days, and presented her with a silver cake dish and butter cooler for herself, and a silver butter cooler for her daughter Mary Ann, now in Manitoba. Miss Bella Torrance was also presented with a beautiful silver pickle dish. The address was read by Mrs. John Mills, and the several gifts were in turn pre- sented by Mrs. Geo. Knox; Mrs. H. W. Allen and Mrs. Geo. A. Newton. The recipients received their presents grate fully and expressed their sincere thanks to all who were in any way concerned. A few days previous to this a number of her shoolmates presented -Miss Blanche Torrance with a beautiful gold locket and chain. These tokens 'testify more strongly than words can 'do the very high esteem in which Mrs. Torrance and her daukhters are held by their old neighbors. Mr. Torrance and his sons have been in Manitoba nearly all winter preparing a home for the reception of the other members of the family. Pros- perity go with them. _ -Wingham.' DEsTRUCTIV'E FIRE: -A very destruc- tive fire occurred here on Sunday morn- ing about 1 o'clock, which resulted in the destruction of the Beater block, one of the finest, business blacks in town. Wingham has one of the best systems of water works in the country, but just at the critical moment a small pinion broke, and it was thought at one time the whole town i would go. . The Beaver block was owned by Robert McIndoo, and occupied ;by Smith & 1?ethick, hard- ware; W. G. Collins, representing W. J. McMaster, of Toronto, dry goods; C. W. & J. Henderson, dry goods and groceriee ; Jerome, dentist; S. G. McGill, lawyer; Brockertshire, photo- grapher;. Mechanics' Institute and G. 'a.wcett,tailor. The sto6cs in the ad- joining stores, which suffered by re- moval, belong to C. E. Wildams, drug- gist ; Gordon & McIndoe, dry goods; A. W. Webster, tailor, and Rebt. Orr, general store. - Very little is known about the details of insurance, but it is believed that everything is pretty well covered. The block will be re -built as soon as the weather will permit. , Colborne. Nonns.-Mr. Thos. Hamilton is get- ting the material on . the ground for a large barn on his farmOn the sixth con- cession. -Mr. Robert Sa.ltons, of the 9th concession, has been laid up with inflam- mation of the lungs, but is now in a fair way to get well. -Mr. Arthur Hunghary is a1s4 in a poor state of health at pres- ent.

There are ten acres with good: house, barn, and all conveni- ences. It is a very comfortable home- stead. mr. Watson wants to purchase a large place. WELL DONE. -Messrs. George Forest and Wm. McAllister, of the Parr Line, Stanley, one day last week sawed, split and piled leleven and a half cords of two foot wood in ten hours. The work was done ori the farm of Mr. Geo. Anderson, and he paid them for this amount at night. They felled the trees and chop- ped the limbs. Who can do better than this? Rensall. R. & M.

R. & BALL, Hensall. 1005-2 -BnIass.-There being neither good sleighing nor wheeling here at present has the effect of making trade somewhat quiet. -We notice Messrs. Coed & Rennie are increasing their already large stock by piles of new goods. - The ice continues good at the rink and the curlers are making good use of it. - The Rev. Mr. Parks, of Durham, who has been here for the past two or three months supplying the Rev. Mr. Thomp- son's pulpit during his absence in Tor- onto, returned home this -week. The reverend gentleman during his short stay here by his sound and faith- ful preaching and kindly disposi- tion made for himself many friends. -Mrs. G. D. Arnold, of Ailsa Craig, is in the village this week visiting her son-in-law, Mr. J. Macarthur.- Mr. J. P. Marshall, of Rodgerville, has purchased the old Presbyterian church, known as the Rogerville church, and -in- tends taking it down shortly and us- ing the brick and other material for the erection of a building here. Time ever brings abont changes, and the place which has known the old church for aboht 30 years will soon know it no more. -Mr. W. Hanson, of the town- ship of Hay, has purchased Mr. J. R. Evans' dwelling situated on Queen street. -Mr. James Stoneman, of Com- ber, Essex county, formerly of this part, is in the village, this week, visit- ing relatives and friends. -The Rev. R. Y. Thomson_, B. D. will occupy his own pulpit on Sabbath first in the Presbyterian church of this place. A. Sherritt, who has been here spending the winter, left on Tuesday evening for his home in Dakota, taking with him a number of valuable horses. We wish him a safe trip. -The Rodger - vine cheese factory will be run during the coming season on the same conditions as formerly. SLEIGHING' PARTY. -On Wednesday of last week a sleighing party, consisting of Mr. Mrs. and Miss McPherson, Mr. and Airs. Klawson, Mrs. Edwards and the Misses Ball left here for St. Helens, there to witness a marriage ceremony, of which Miss Wood, formerly of this place, and a sister of Mrs. McPherson, was one of the contracting parties, or in other words, the bride. Once on the road all went well and merry as a mar- riage bell until within a couple of miles of Clinton, where the roads were very bad, being full of deep pitch holes. Here, the °horses being hitched rather short for such roads, and imbibing al lit- tle of the spirit peculiar to wedding trips and times, started off at a break- neck speed, but ere they had run very fax they were stopped short by Mr. Klawson, who, dexterously handling the ribbons, plunged them into a deep snow - bank, which quickly cooled them off and stopped their mad career. However, within , a very short distance from the first scene, -they started off a second time even more furiously than before with Mr. Klawson and Mr. Mc- Pherson well braced at the end of the lines to prevent any mishap occurring. Here again after running a short dis- tance at a speed fast enough to suit the fastest inclined, they were stopped short just before entering on the bridge near Clinton, and just in time to save a fine .for fast driving. The bridge, however, was little more than crossed when away for a third time the horses dashed, and into Clinton at a rate which truly aston- ished the natives. At this time with' Mr. Klawson and Mr. McPherson at the lines all would doubtless have gone as well as before had not the pole broke crossing the railway track, allowing the horses to get clear. They were, however, quickly stopped, and after a short delay in town the " plealiure Tarty started off without the least scratch or harm for their destination, which they reached in good time to witness the marriage cerernony. The most amusing (incident in connection with the whole adven ure was the remark made by an elderly ady living near Clinton wherethe runa ay took! place. She said to one of the l4lies in the sleigh, alluding to Mr. Klau en, whiseby the way is a married gentle an in the neighborhood of 40 but who 1 oks little more than•half that age owin $ to his kouthful and fresh appearance, she said that boy (Mr. Klausen) desek-ves great credit for the way in whicl he hung on to those runaway horses and she looked, hearing that he was on his way to a wedding party, that i he required anything in the line of a wife for himself, he could have one, of her daughters for the pluck he had shown during the past emergency.

SAINING BEE. -One day last week a nuntber of friends and neighboes sawed 25 eords of wood for Mr. Robert John- stoo. The young people of the neigh- borhood stayed during the evening and had. a pleasant time. GOOD HORSES. -There are owned ou the 6th concession four imported Clydes- dale stallions, " Baron Scott," " M zep- pa," "Smuggler," "The Young ride of Scotland."

CLEVER TRAMP. -A short time ago a Middle aged man passed through this district, called upon the farmers, and sueceeded in enlisting their sympathies in a very substantial manner. Their sympathies were genuine, and wer paid in lamounts' varying from 50, ce ts to $1.150. He said that he had for s veral years been an illimate of the I route as lum, but had lately regained ha rein - soil and been set at liberty.

FARM SOLD. -Mr. Alex. Ross, of Tuckersmith„ recently -sold the south half of lot 20, concession 1, Stanley, to Mr. John McQueen, for the handsome sum of $3,600. THE LAST SERMON. -The last sermon delivered by the Rev. Mr. Ross was from the text, "Ye are the salt of the earth, and if the salt have lost its savor wherewith shall it be salted ; it is only fit to be cast out and trodden under the foot of man." Mussearse-Mr. Geo. Baird, sr., in- vited the meiobers of the Musical Society to his residence to spend' a social time one evening last week. A large number of invited guests were also present. The time was pleasantly spent in singing, conversation; &c. It is a standing rule with Mr. and Mrs. Baird to make every one enjoy themselves, and they are always successful. Ft -N MUT, SERMON. -atit Sunday, the 13th hist., at 2:30 p. nes, the Rev. Mr. McDonald, Of Seaforth, preached in the late Mr. Ross' church. (he church was literally packed, quite a number having to stand during the sqrvice. He de- livered in his usual eloquent manner a very appropriate and affecting sermon froth the tet: "A good 'name is better than precious ointment ;, and the day of death better than the day of one's birth."-Ecclee. 7:1.
