& valiant knight of the bow, who is

merry laughter. --About thirty young'
people and a few older ones spent the

ing various amusing games, singing, re-
citing pieces, etc. The younger guests

injured on the farm -of Mr. Gavin Hamil-

A Boy's Composition.
The following heretofore unheard of
information in regard to breath and
breathing was made public in Kentucky
recently by a school bey of twelve years,
who wrote an assay on the subject:
"We breathe with our lungs, our kid-
neys and our livers. If it wasn't for our
breath we would die when we slept.
Our breath keeps the life a -going through
the nose when we are asleep. Boys who
dear in a roomall day should net breathe.
They should wait until they get out in
the fresh air. Boys in a, room make bad
air called carbonicide. Carbonicide is
as poison as mad dogs. A lot of soldiers
were once in a hole in Calcutta and
carbonicide got in there and lsilled them.
Girls sometimes ruin the breath with
corsets that squeeze the diagram. A
big diagram is best for the right kind of
breathing."

turn, good by any of the Mail Steamers, except -
Ing" Parisian "or " Sardinian" needs no com-

TORONTO, May 28 —For export cattle the de-
mand was weak on account of the demoralised
condition of the English Markets. Shippers
were buying, however, to fill the space engaged
on the steamships. About 20 loads of export
went through. Prices were from 410 to 5e per
Ib. Not many butcher cattle are corning in, re-
ceipts being chiefly export cattle., The demand
is fair at steady prices. For choice lots 4to to
60 per lb was ipaid down to, 3ic for inferior.
Some representative sales were : 32 head, aver-
aging 1,250 lbs, 85.16 per cwt.; 18 headi averag-
ing 1,240 lbs, at 55.10, 19 head, averegeng 1,200
lbs, at $4.85 • 19 head, averaging 1,176 lbs, at 41-c
per ib; 18 head, averaging 1,050 lbs, at 4e.c per
lb.; 22 head, averaging 1,030 lbs, at $4.65 per
owt.; 18 head, averaging 1,287 fibs, at 5c per lb ;
18 head, averaging 963 lbs, at 41c per lb • 15
head, averaging 962 lbs, at 41c per lb. Sheep
sold fairly well at from $5.50 to $7. Exporters
are just beginning to ship to the old country,
110 head going through to -day. There • were
some sheep held over. -Spring lambs are rather
quiet at from $3.60 to$4.60 each. The calves
offered brought good prices, ranging from $4 to
86.60, :teem ding to quality. Hogs were in fair
demand, the best selling for $5 to e5.40 per cwt.

LIVERPOOL, May 27.—Cattle. — Best 1Canadian
steers quoted at 12c, a decline of lc per lb in the

mand for Canadian cattle is weak,and an aburOl-
erne of outside supplies keeps the market de-
pressed. For American stock things are even
worge. ,The demand is very weak, while the
market is actually glutted with stock. Best
states cattle are quoted at 110, and from there
to Sic per lb. Reports from Glasgow and Lon-

Vermont %3 Maple Sugar Crop.
A special despatch to the Boston Jour-
nal from St. Alban's,Vermont, says that
"the season is practically over in Ver-
mont, the warm. and dry weatlher of the
past few days having started , the buds
on the maple trees and stopped the flow
of sap in the woode. In some favored
looalities a limited quantity ef sugar will
be made during the next few days, but
the balk of the Nagar erop for this season
has been secured. The yield of sugar
has been smaller than for many years,
and it is estimated that not more than
half of an avera.ge crop has been pro -
dried. The total annual production
has been about 12,0*,000 pounds dur-
ing the past ten yea, but it is doubt-
ful if the yield of 1890 will reech 5,000.-
000 pounds. One of the largest sugar
makers in Franklin county, who has en
orchard of 2,000 trees, reports making
but 4,000 pounds this year, .against
8,000 pounds last season. Many farm-
ers report the yield to be less than two

Horse Markets.
MONTREAL, May 27.—There is a pretty good
business doing in the horse market, both en
local ancount as well as for ehipment to the
United States, and during the pelt week there
were shipp.ed from here across the lines" 201
horses, costing 520,866.50, or an average cf
$103.81 each. The highest -priced largo lot were
20 horses which cost here $2,741, and the lowest
priced lot were 19 horses which cost $1,606.
TORONTO, May 28.—The horse trade continues
in that state of stagnation that has previously
been noted. The building strikes are having
an adverse effect upon the demand for work
horses, as teamsters at unemployed, ante- work
horses are the only ones in request at the pres-
ent tinne. It is not likely that any greater
activity will. manifest itself 'for a little time
yet. The demand is entirely local, no businese
at all being done with the States. At Grand's
to -day 40 general pnrpose horses were offered
and about 20 sold, at prices ranging from $80
to $1.e0.
