her many friends. Shortly after the cere-
mony the bride and groom led the way to
the upper room, where one of the most
bountiful spreads Was thoroughly enjoyed
by everyone in the large company. After
faring so sumptuously the company was, of
course, in excellent humor, and went in for
a good time, and so enjoyable was the ,even -
bee that it was very late, or rather early,
before the last guest departed. Mr. and
Mrt. Morrison certainly had a good send-off
snd enter wedlock loaded with good wishes.
LOCAL ITEMS.—The clerk, (meteor and
collector of our township, each has eleven
children, and the three have twenty-four
sons. Land is so high and the population
increasing BO fast that these three all have
sons ite Uncle Sam's Dominion. —In a Ladies'
sewing circle lately the proepects of mar-
riage were disouseed, Slid in counting up it
vies found that enly one elderly maiden
lady remains in the north half of the town-
ship, while there are thirty in the south
half. It wa,s all attributed to the greater
distance from town and the fact of the
young: men having the wherewithal to fur-
nish a house. Those who pay forty dollars
for a dress suit to attend bails in are not the
ORBS to support a wife, nor are the 'belles
who expend $100.00 in a ball dress
likely to get married very young. These
are not among the industrious class.—
Meaties and mumps are prevalent in part of
the township, and parties should be sure to
notify the Medical Health Officer in each
cue.
Morris.
PERSONALS. —Mr. and Mrs. W. M.Mbore,
of Totnlito, are renewing acquaintances in
this locality.—Mr. Wm. Knight, who has
been farming near Marlette, Michigan, dur-
ing the pest ten years, ie at present. visiting
at his father's, on the 8th line. We learn
that Mr. Knight has rented his farms, and
intends remaining in Ontario for some time.
COUNCIL DOINGS.—At-the last meeting of
the council, at which all the members were
present except Mr. Howe, the Auditors' re-
port was received and examined, and order-
ed to be published in the Bnissels Poet. A
joint petition from the ratepayers of Morris
and East Waws.nosh, in the vicinity of Bel -
grave, asking the council to appoint an arbi-
trator to act in conjunction with an arbi-
trator similarly appointed by the council of
Etat Wawanosh, with a view to the forma-
tion of a union school section at Belgrave,
was laid over until next council meeting.
The council appointed Mr. Wm. Clegg, of
Wingham, to act as arbitrator on behalf of
the township of Morris in the matter now
in dispete between the township and the
county. A number of accounts, including
$100, salary of T. S. Brandomtreasurer, and
$40 in favor of the Reeve for arbitration ex-
penses, were passed and ordered to be paid.
The next meeting of the council will be on
March 27th.
HAVPY EVENT. —The residence of Mrs,
iiVm. Kelly, on the 8th line, was the scene
of a very happy event on Wednesday, the
15th inst., when a company of about fifty
guests assembled to witness the marriage of
her daughter. Miss Elizabeth A., (Bessie)
to Mr. John Muldoon, of Hartney, Mani-
toba. The interesting ceremony was per-
formed by Rev. W. G. Reilly, of -Brussels.
The bride was waited an by Miss Minnie
Simpson, of Sheppardton, moil the groom by
Mr. George Kelly, brother of the bride.
The marriage ceremony and coogratulations
over, the company eat down to an excellent
dinner served in Mrs. 'Kelly's hest style.
The happy couple then drove to Blyth and
took the 4.15 train for London. Returning
on Friday, a grand reception party was
held in the evening, at which a large num-
ber of friends and acquaintances were pres-
ent, and an enjoydiale time was spent by
those partaking of the hospitality of Mrs.
Kelly. The wedding gifts were numerous,
useful and costly. Mr. and Mrs. Muldoon
have the good wishes of a large circle of
friends for their future happiness and pros-
perity. They leave next month for 'their
future home in Manitoba.

patience with people who talked of annex-
ing this God-fearing and moral people to
the United States. If all earthly means
failed to prevent such a calamity he felt
that God would intervene to preserve the

DEAR EXPOSITOR,—Would you kindly
give space Mr a short letter. It will soon
be the time of year for merchants who have
been in the habit of pateing a rig on the
road to get out their license and prepare for
the spring trade. Now almost every one you
may speak to on this subject, both merchants
and others, say it is a very bad thing for the
towns and villages. A wagon on the road
every day entails a good deal of expense;
horse and rig, feed, wear and tear during
the year amount to quite an item and this
must be met by a percentage on the goods
mold. If the merchants in this part of the
country would come to an agreement to dis-
pense with this expense and reduce the
goods accordingly e the farmers would will-
ingly hitch up and drive out, as in the good
old times, see the sights and perhaps do
some business as well at the mill, black-
smith or other shops. But so long as there,
ie one rig sent out on the road all the other,
merchants must and will follow suit. Why
cannot we come to an agreement to do away
with it alogether ?

Tompkins' fifty acres was probably the best
in the township.

—On Thursday morning, 9th inst., the
people of Kirkton were startled at the news
of the sudden death of Mrs. Steele, wife of
Rev. H. D. Steele, the Church of England
clergyman there. The deceased lady, who
had not been in the best of health for some
time past, arose as usual on Thursday morn-

—On Thursday night, last week, there
died &this homestead, lot 23, concession 5,

The cause of death was paralysis of the
brain, from which he had been a sufferer for
a short time, Mr. Henry came to Ehice
township 111 1845, with his father and fam-
ily, who came direet from Londonderry,
Ireland. The deceased's father, Robert
Henry, was a prominent figure in that town-
ship, and was the first Reeve of Ellice. His
on was a worthy descendant of good stock,
and has been one of the mostesuccessful and
most highly esteemed of the yeomanry of
Ellice.. The deceased, in 1855, established
the firet steam saw mill in Ellice, and, it is
believed, the first in the county of Perth.
He wan an Old Kirk Presbyterian, and gave
life leng adherence to the sturdy Chris-
tianity of that denomination. In politics he
was Conservative. His death will be
greatly regretted by a large circle of rela-
tives and friends. Deceased left behind him
a wife and a family of twelve—six sons and
six datighters.

A Scotch Sermon.
Paator Horne, of -Springburn Baptist
Church, Glasgow, lately delivered a sermon
entirely in braid Scotch, and which has been
publiehed in pamphlet form under the title
of "Something. tae keep mid' o'." The
text is from the Psalms (Hately Wad.dell's
version)—" Fling a' your care on the Lord."
The following is a lorief extract: •
Yonner's a wee toddlin' wean that fa's an'
clures heel' fifty times in a day, but ilka
time onything happens tae it, it rine skirlin'
tae its mammy, wha tak's it up on her knee
an' kisses the sair bit an' dichts the tears
awe' only pleased to hae anither chance o'
cuddlin' the wee angel. Tae midst o' us it's
a marvel hoo a mither can be bathered wi'
sic trifles; but it's nae marvel tae the mith-
er hersel', for she'. deid in love wi' the
wean--ae' love an' labor, ye ken, aye gamg
thegither. Noo, there's a place in the Bible
whaur the Meister is made tae appear as a
mither cdmfortin' her bairn (Ism lxvi. 13) ;
an' if oor warldly nurse looks sae cannily
an' patiently efter her weans, will no the
Lord tak' as muckle—aye, even mair—inter-
est in His bairns ? Sae tell Hiro a' shoot yer
doon.comes, an' o' this I'm gee, sure, that
He'll listen tae ye wi' hearty gnidwill. Come,
then, ma freen, an fling a' yer cares on Him
for the incomin' year! Mak' Him skipper
o' yer boat, an' harm ower tse Him a' the
responsibility o' stearin' ye richt—naethin
pleases Him better ! Yer blunders and yer
bruises, yer ssire an yer cares, an' a' sic -like
