the township contains 52,170 acres, of which
36,093 are cleared. The assessed value of
the township is $1,788,100. There are
3,982 days statute labor to be performed.

MARRIAGE BELLS. -This week we have
the pleasure to chronicle still another of
those pleasing events which help to make
the futere so bright and happy. We refer
to the marriage of Miss Mary Maudson, of
Mitchell, to Harry A. Scarlett, formerly of
McKillop, now of Blyth, who were joined in
the bands of holy matrimony on the 25th
inst. at the English church parsonage, Brue-
n'', by the Rev. W. Cluff. The bride has
for the last five years been engaged at the
teaching profession. She has resigned her
'interests in her present school to Miss MI -
len, of Moraillop, whose ability is so well-
known as to need no recommendation. The
bride, no doubt, has grown somewhat tired
of teaching the smaller minds, in which she
has proved a great success, and thinks
double blessedness with such an amiable
companion would prove more satisfactory.
Of her worthy husband it is needless to
write, as he is well known at home and
abroad. as a very pleasing young gentleman.
As both are of a genial and affable dispo-
sition, they will not be long in gaining
many friends in their new home. They
take up their abode in Blyth, where Mr.
Scarlett has a hardware store. We extend
to them our sincerest and warmest congratu-
lations, and hope that their efforts in the
future may be crowned with unbounded
success. May both be spared for many
years to realize the sweetness of each other's
society.
"
undertook to thrash the animal. The
beast kicked, striking the man on the head
and completely shattering his skull. He
died in a short time.
-A ewe belonging to Mr. John Campbell,
near Milverton, a few days ago had four
lambs, all of which are alive and doing well.
Two were adopted by another ewe.
-Mr. James Corcoran, of Stratford, has
received the appointment of bursar of the
Mimic° Asylum. The position is worth
about $1,800 per annum.
-Mr. J. L. Kastner, of Sebringville, lost
a valuable colt on Monday, last week. It
died from la grippe. He refused 3400 for
It a short time ago.
-Mr. Albert Quipp, of the 14th conces-
sion of Elms, was kicked by a vicioue horse
some days ago, but is now recovering. He
had a narrow escape, Mid was unconscious
for a short time.
-Mr. Wm. McDonald has disposed of
his brick store and dwelling house, in New-
ton, for the sum of $2,100. ?dr.John Ritter,
of Millbank, is the purchaser, and will
occupy the "tore with hardware.
-Robert Farrell, while working in the
fisx mill, at Atwood, got his hand in one of
the brakes and had the first finger of the
right hand completely chopped to pieces.
The finger had to be amputated.
-Mr. Samuel Scott, of Auburn, has con-
tracted for the whey of the Elma Cheese
Company's factory for this season. Last
week he put in 69 hogs, and about one hun-
dred more will be added this week. .
-Mr. John Lambert, who left Milverton
about a month ago for Manitoba, returned
home on Monday, last week. He reports
the country being over -flooded with farm
hands unable to get work.
-Miss Fortune. and Mrs. Wm. Workman,
of Stratford, quietly resolved to supply a
long felt want of the hospital, and in their
own little ward, (Hamlet), succeeded in rail -
log the necessary funds to purchase a Ray-
mond sewing machine for that institution.
-Mr. Peter Idington'son of the well-
known barrister, of Stratford, will go into
farming about six mile. northwest of Plum
Coulee, Manitoba. He owns the whole
section, and will break up about 200 acres
this season.
-The Mitchell Recorder of last week
says: Rev. Dr. Potts preached to a large
congregation in Trafalgar street church on
Sunday morning. Hie sermon was an able
and stirring deliverance, and the collections
in support of the educational fund amount-
ed to $50.
-Quite a number of residences have been
sold and bought in Mitchell during the past
ten days. Prices ranged from $250 to
$1,000. The latter was the _purchase by
Mr. George Larkworthy of a handsome
brick residence, opposite the High School,
recently owned by the late Mrs. Archer.
-The other night, in St. Marys, some
scoundrel broke into Mr. Joseph Stafford's
stable, where he keeps a couple of valuable
horses, and with a knife inflicted a very
severe wound on one of the animal's lege,
making a gash about eight or ten inches
long. It is supposed to have been the work
of some person who had a spite in store for
Mr. Stafford and resorted to this means for
satisfaction.
-The Atwood Bee has recently been ad-
monishing the fair sex against the too
prevalent habit of chewing gum. The other
morning the editor found a large quid of
gum, -apparently just ejected from the
pouting lips of a heart smashing damsel,
stuck to the latch of his office door. Two
more large lumps were plastered on his
office window, and the happy editor is now
able to chew the quid of contentment over
the gratifiying results of his admonition.
-At the recent Chancery Sittings, in
Stratford, one of the most interesting cases
was that of Miss Maria Kreh, of Downie,
against Mr. Aurelias Moses, of the same
township, in which the plaintiff asked, to be
declared beneficially entitled to the amount
of an insurance policy on the life of the late
James Good Moses, who was her sweet,
heart. The case had been referred for
judgment to Osgoode hall, and the law
authorities there decided against Miss
Kreh's claim.
-Mr. John Idington, Q. C., of Stratford,
has a valuable thoroughbred short horned
cow, which -had for some time suffered from
a growth in the larynx. This caused great
difficulty and _labor in breathing, and the
animal was in great danger of strangulation.
On February 16th Dr. Wm. Steele, V. S.,
was called in, and performed the operation
of tracheotomy, cutting int* the windpipe
and inserting a tube. By this means the
animal was able to breathe through the
tube and absorption took place in the
larnyx. The animal is improviug and tak-
ing on flesh rapidly.
Londesboro.
LOCA.LITITS.-The Presbyterian congre-
gatiens of Londesboro and Hullett will now
have a permanent pastor, in the person of
Rev. Mr. Hamilton. The new pastor will
take up his residence in the Manse here in
a few days. It is tbe general opinion that
the congregations have made a good choice,
and Mr. Hamilton could not cast his lot
among a finer lot of people. -The musical
and literary contest, which has been in pro-
gress for some time in the Good Templar"
lodge of this place, has been terminated and
has resulted in favor of the side captained
by Sister Brogden. The losing side will
entertain the lodge at a. free lunch in the
near future. The contest just closed has
added much to the interest of the lodge
meetings, as several splendid programmes
have been given. The result is a consider-
able addition to the membership and much
mere largely attended meetings. -The fence
along the embankment at the south end of
the river bridge has 4aAen completed, and
will make this place flinch asfer for public
travel. -Messrs. Robed and John Crawford
have over 1,000 rods of fence to build this
summer. They make a first-class fence. -
Notwithstanding the backward weather,
seeding is well advanced in this vicinity,
several fanners being done. The seed has
been got in in splendid order, and with
favorable weather there will be good crops.
The fall wheat is much ha need of rain and
warm weather.

THE Mortgage Bank and Investment Com-

have farms for sale which they have obtained at very
low prices under foreclosure, which they will sell :at
from $4 to $7 per acre, aceepting 350, when the con-
tract is made, the balance to be paid hi yearly instal-
ments. Most of these farms have considerable of the
land under cultivation, and houses and barns already
built. They also say that they will lease sheep and
cattle on shares to the parties purchasing the farms.
This would seem to be a prime opportunity for am-
bitious young men to obtain a start in life. They
will send description and prices to any one who write

A NEW DEPARTURE. -I have done no ad-
vertising for the last eix or seven years, for the sim-
ple reason that I could not truthfully offer the same
inducements that others in my line of business were
offering, such as selling at eost and under cod, and
quoting selling prices below what I could purchase
wholesale. But, as I have seen no such advertise-
ments lately. I think it might be well to let the peo-
ple of Seaforth and its surroundings know that I am
still in basiness, with a very large stook of nearly all
the various lines kept in a retail boot and shoe store,
and bought with the advantage of an experienoe of
50 years in the busineso. With the object in view,
for my own sake, to give my customer, the best value
possible for their money, and as I am getting heartily
tired of the credit system, as an inducement to cash
buyers, I will give, oa all purchases of over $1, five
per cent. discount for &eh, and, as my goods were
all marked in plain figures before I concluded to
make this offer, parties who buy- for cash will get
goods at an advanoe on cost that ought to satisfy
even the Patrons of Indusery.In custom made work
I can promise no improvement, as I have always done
my level best to give the very beet article that men
and money could produce. The neatness with which
I have my repairing done is well underetood. That
is all at present, only 1 tender my thanks for past
patronage, and the hope for a continuance of the
same. Tnoeies COVE -VONT, Main Street, Seaforth.
