time is expected.—Mr. Geo, McKey has
secured the contract for getting out timber
this winter for the Star sawmill on the 16th
concession. Ile had men employed last
week in cutting out roads; but so far the
scarcity of snow hat kept them back in
their skidding and hauling. There iii a good
deal of snow in the swamps yet, and net
much timber can be got out till the real
frosty weather and iiood sleighing comes.
It it expected that this coming year will be
the last one in which the mill will be run
-
ming. George and his gang will probably
snake the timber in the swamp pretty scarce
before apring if the weather is at all favor-
able.—James Mitchell, Jr., goes to London

Iterunhienein on a TELMER.- Miss Mc-
Key, of Seaforth, who has for the past -four
years taught in Hanruth's alma on the 2nd
conuesion, has retired from the wheel; ani
before closing on Tuesday the scholars tee&
advantage of the occasion to express their
love for her, their appreciation of her ser-
vices and care for them, and their regret at
the severstnce of the pleasant reIationewhich
have existed so long between them. They
made her a handeorne present and handed
her the following kindly worded and com-
plimentary addreu : "It is with deepest re-
gret that owing to your desire to further
peruse your studies you will be compelled
to sever the pleasant relations between us.
We hope you may be successful is your pre-
paratory work and in any profession in
which yea may in future engage. While

have won the respect and esteem of parents

colors, showing by their prompt answers to
the many difficult questions thatthe inform-
ation imparted by Mr. Scott is systematic,
practical and thorough. The excellent or-
der rasiataieed throughout the whole pro-
ceedings deserves more than passing notice,
being such that the many visitors present
could hear clistinetly the answers given by
each pup11,which is seldom the case on such
occasisses. The Messrs. Horton on the vio-
lin, supplied some very exec:Bent music
which acted as a aort of tonic in relieving
the monotony of examination and filling

tire estisfaction with the work being done
