A Smous Amu:T.-sere-a-Perhaps as sad an accident as ever occurred in this locality befel Mr. Myles Soott, of Springbank, lasb Wednesday. He was 'assisting in drawing in grain at the farm of his brother-in-law, Mre J. J. Grigg, reeve of our township. They two were mowing away the grain and while waiting for a load Myles swung onto a beam,where he sat tid the next load eame. When it entered the barn he lowered the fork, which he held in his hand, to the sheaves, and on throwing himself down, his hold on the fork, in smile unaccountable manner,- was lost, and he fell on the blunt handle, which penetrated his abdomen some six or seven inches. Hasty messengers soon brought Drs. Spence, of Fordwich, and Tuck, of Gorrie, on the scene, and they worked all day with him. The intestines were not injured, but an incision made with a blunt handle of a fork to such a depth must be a difficult matter for professional men to deal with. At time of writing he is doing als well as can be expected, and the doctoral have hopes of his ultimate recovery. • Varna. PERSRONA L. -Mr. D. Robertson, of Sault Ste.

Here is a big section of country on tha Can: adieu Pacific Railway, having no outlet io, the lakes nearer than Torontb, and. the citi- zens are constantly reminded of the fact when desirous of a picnic or an outing of any kind. Besides, there are an -vantages to be gained in having easy and substantial means of communication with some of the larger towns at almost any hour of the day, -and we hope the directors will do as Oliver Mowat used to promise to do, when any im- portant question was presented to him, to give it his most earnest consideration. -The census returns are somewhat disappointing, but we probably touched bottom four or five years ago, and our population in future will go up in leaps and bounds. -Mr. Andrew Brown and family, from Tilbury, are visit- ing friends here for a week. -Gibson Broth- ers will have their cider press in readiness for the apple season. • Wingham.
