cedes. The larger streams are deep
and navigable for small vessels
/or the greater part of their course. On
/these rivers are some beautiful falls,
mach as Burk's fall on the Maganetewan
=river, and South falls, on a river of the
eiame name. The latter falls is beauti-
ful, espedially when the water is high.
The decent is about 80 or 96 feet through
ta narrow chasm and over precipitous
reeks. The timber -men in floating logs
down such rivers, to avoid the falls
have erected large slides varying from
150 to 200 yards long. The water flows
down these places exceedingly fast,
and it is very interesting to watch the
large pine logs shooting down and
plunging into the river beyond. Lakes
and ponds are very numerous. The
ponds have been formed by beavers
damming the streams. The lakes to a
newcomere are enchanting but with
- odd names such as Eagle, Stony,
Deer, Sturgeon, &c. The largest
is about 7 miles long and 3
miles wide. Rile shores are generally
-sandy or rocky: In some of the lakes
are many islands varying from rocks
large enough to stand upon to isles con-
taining 20 acres. The largest of these
ialands are yet covered with forest, but
in time will afford excellent camping
and pie-nic grounds.
On the shores of these lakes are found
from one to four saw mills, generally
owned and used by the owner of a tim-
ber limit. The logs are floated into the
space of water adjoining the mill and
kept from drifting out by a long line of
poles chained together called a boom.
The logs are chiefly kept in the water to
prevent worms from working in the
pine.
The soil is a sandy loam, and
seems especially adapted for gardening
purposes. All kinds of roots grow well.
Very little fall wheat is sown as yet, -
and what has been sown does not seem
to mature well. Oats, peas, and barley
grow splendidly and the sample of grain
is good, if not sown too late. Haying
begins towards the end of July. and har-
vest follows shortly after. The far-
mers have to iesort to the old scythe,
cradle and hand rake, in the gathering
in of the golden grain and many an
hour of honest toil and sweat is spent
binding up the rustling sheaves, among
the stumps, or on the rocky hill side.
When travelling along the roads one
hears peculiar hollow sounds under his
feet at times, indicating space between
the earth and rock or openings in the
rock. The rook from all appearanees is
of volcanic origin. In some places it
represents a very twisted appearance as
if cooled into such form from a melted
state. Quarries are yet in their infancy,
but excellent building stone, good speci-
mens of granite, mica, limestone, &c.,
are to be found in abundance. Indica-
tions of iron, copper and lead are to be
seen in various parts.
Wild fruit is abundant, this year es-
pecially, which is quite a boon to the
people, as it is their substitute for other
fruits. Huckleberries, cranberries,
raspberries, dewberries and thimble -
berries are the moot plentiful. Many of
the settlers have tried raising fruit trees
but owning to the severity of the winters
they have not been very successful. A
few of the hardier varieties tire to be
found in places adapted for their pro-
tection. Eeeneeic.

CORNER STONE LAID.—,The brick work
of the new town hall in this village was
begun last week. The corner stone was

congregation of this magnificent mem-

no doubt, to the earnestness of the
present pastor.—A large number from

NOT SATE.—It is not often that we
complain or find fault with anything or
anybody; but the condition of the bridge
over the river west of here, known as
Armstrong's bridge, is such as to de-
mand our attention. The condition of
this bridge since last spring is some-
thing scandalous. All summer holes have
been continually breaking in the floor,
and these holes are often left unrepaired
for days at a time. Parties, especially
strangers, travelling this road after
night are in danger of having their
horses' lege broken. The bridge wants
a new floor at oncelo prevent further
danger.
BRUN Num.—Part of our corres-
pondenceof two weeks ago was a little
slow, but it got there all the same.—

tune to have a nail forced into his knee

again.—Mr. Albert Cole grows timothy
hay that meesures 5 feet, & inches in
length.—The blight on the oats is very
general in this vicinity and some of the
barley appears to be similarly affected.
As is usually the case, the late sown
fields are emore affected than the early
sown, whether or not it will affect the
yield remains to be seen.—Several of
our lady friends have been investing
in silverware. Judging from the price
we are of the opinion that it is not of
genuine quality, and the fact that it
was purchased from an unknown travel-
ling peddler makes us still more doubt-
ful about it being genuine.

lish market, and nearly all the sales were in the
neighborhood of 4c 4i0 and 5c per pound. Al-
though there was such a heavy supply the de.
mend was aleo good, so that the principal effect

Horse Markets.
TORONTO, July 16.—The usual midsummer
dullness is now exhibited in trade, and the, de-
mand in consequence is very light. There are a
few enquiries for general purpose horses, but no
other kind are in request, and but few of these
are wanted. Prices are low, and in the imme-
diately condition of business are hardly likely to
be much higher. The demand is purely local,
no outside buyer at all being in the market. At
Grand's to -day 40 general purpose were offered,
and about 20 sold, at prices ranging from $80 to
$120 each.
