It's about time an example was made of a few of the hoodlums who imagine they own the toWn. If this is :not done speedily the good name of Brussels will be a dream of the past. -On Sunday afternoon, 22nd ult., -there departed to his eternal rest James ,Cummings, of Wingharn, at the ripe old age of eighty-five years. In the de- -cease of Mr. Cummings Wingham loses a very old pioneer and a much respected citizen. He leaves behind him an aged .and delicate wife, who has been a con- eiderable time confined to her bed, and -doubtless will not survive long him to whom she has been wedded for the past .414 years. There are quite a number -who celebrate their silver wedding it and some their golden weddings, but, alas! how few there are who survive the lat- ter by' ten years. -Thomas M. McLean, cattle buyer,of ,Goderich, is suing Hugh M. Douglas, formerly a livery stable keeper of Lon- don, for $5,000 damages for false and • malicious sweet and imprisonment. In August Iast year the plaintiff hired from the defendant a horse, for which he paid the tam of $6. When the horse was re- -turned, it is alleged that no complaint wee made by the defendant, but about a month afterwards he laid an informa- -tion before the Police Magistrate of Lon- don, charging the plaintiff with ill using -and over driving the horse and injuring him to the extent of $35. The plain- tiff was arrested and had to give bail for his release. When the matter came be - fere the Magistrate the case against the plaintiff was dismissed. He now sues for damages. Last week the master in -chambers at Toronto made an order • changing the place cif trial from God- erieh to London. West Wawanosh. NOTES. -The river bed for a mile and a half north of the Manchester bridge is so blocked with ice that the water is eating a new channel in some places, and it is doubtful if it will resume the old bed. -Mr. Charles Rintoul left on Monday with his family for Manitoba. OBITUARY. -We are sorry to have to chronicle the departure from this life, of Mr Benjamin Ferrier,of the llth cences- shim Mr. Ferrier was troubled for a long time with asthma, but was gener- ally able to be on his feet and going around. He went to bed as usual on Monday evening, and about two o'clock on Tuesday morning he bid adieu to things of time. Mr. Ferrier was one of the first settlers in this neighborhood, .and had made for himself and family a itomfortable home. He has a wide circle of friends and relatives who have the sympathy of all in their sad bereave- ment. Nos.. -It is with the deepest sor- row that we record the death of one of Wawanosh's early settlers, in the per- son of Mr. Benjamin Ferrier. Mr. Fer- rier has` been troubled with asthma for some time, and last Tuesday morning it succeeded in fulfilling its deadly work. The sorely bereaved have the sincerest sympathy of their many friends. -The lecture and social, which was given in the Donneybrooke Church last week, W&8 very highly appreciated, judging from the goodly number who ventured out, although the roads were in an al- most impassable condition. The lecture was delivered by Rev. Mr. Edge'of Clinton, on "Bring Back What You Borrow." Mr. Edge is a fine speaker, and the people of Donnybrooke are looking forward to the time when they will be afforded another opportunity of listening to him. --The Pleasant Hill Patrons of Industry Society are making rapid strides of advancement. Mem- liers are being initiated almost every night. At their meeting last week they :held a contest, at which remarkable talent was displayed both in readings and recitations, and especially in stump speeches Which were given. If -our young men keep on improving we will not be at a loss for speakers at the next political carnpaign.-Mrs. Wm.

Near cities farmers may burn coal, but generally the fuel is wood, in spite of the cry of the alarmists who , declare that the foresee are receding and soon wiLj disappear.The wood pile may serve as a sign, and make known the methods of the farmer. If the pile be big in the spring, then it ii known that the owner doei not intend to be dis- turbed in the busy season, about ten ' o'clock in the Morning, by the cry from the house, " If, you want any dinner, you must cut some wood." If there be only a chopping -block and a few uncut sticks lying around, then it is evident that the house keeper, in ad- dition to other cares, must worry about the fuel supply. Reading the Bible. It is one thing to eulogize the Bible. It is another thing to give it careful and daily reading and meditation. The magazine and the newspapers are anxi- ously looked foreand hours are given to their perusal. The Bible may be read daily, but the reading may be simply to ease one's conscience and without any thought (4 its divine -au- thority and health givieg tendency to the soul. Henry Marttin, the mission- ary, would never alloy himselft to read a book one moment after he felt that it was gaining a preference in his mind over the bible. As long as he could turn to his Bible with a supreme relish, he would continuii reading, and no longer. flow few would think of establishing such a criterion in literature. -Christian Inquirer. Exeter. The Case of Halkerston's Cow. A tenant of Lord Halkerston, a Judge of the Scotch Court of Session, once waited on him with a woeful countenance, and said -g• My lord, I am come to inform your lordship of a sad misfortune.

"Well, my lord, if it must be so, I cannot say more. Brit I forgot what I was saying. It; was my mistake en- tirely. I should have said that it was your lordship's co* that gored mine."
