Mr. Horrot died in Brandon, n the 15th of June. He had an attack of ty- phoid fever, froth -which he was reooveriog when he took a relapse and the disease proved fatal.

He leaves a widow but nu children. He was a brother of Mrs. Hugh Chesney, of Egmondville.

He had 80 en his list. but of this number several have been poiaoned since the list was made out, Mrs. John Dorsey had a magnificent St. Bernard poisoned a few days ago, and Mr. Alex. Scott, ar, also had an old favorite destroyed in the same way. If the poison is set out for. the purpose of destroying theee animals, it is a deteetable way of taking re- venge on a neighbor or fellow citizenn If a dog, on acoeurit Of its bad habits ie a nuis- ance in a neighborhood it ahoulde certainly, be put out of the way, brit there are, eurely, more humane and kindly methods of getting rid of the nuisance than by endangering. valuable or harmless animale that may be favorites everywhere and highly prized by their owners. There are many other waye of getting rid of a dangerous dog or one that may be e nuisance, or of compelling the owner to get rid of it, that would not be an- noying to innocent and unoffending citizens. • • EaStONDVILLE NOTES. — Mrs. Carson Moore, of Algoma, and her son Peter ,are holidaying in Egmondville with Mr. D.

Gales has shosen no two oopies of the old Toronto Pa- triots one number of which is dated July 8th, 1861, and the other March 12th, 1862. They are addressed to the late Thomas Ad - entre; Mrs. Gales' father, who was a eubscrib- er to the paper, and with whom it was a great favorite. The Patriot was the organ of the Orange Order of those days, and was ublished from the old Leader office and by r. Beaty, who ewer the chief editor and publisher of both papers. It was strongly Conservative in politics. In 1861 an election was en for the Parliament of Canada, which was then oomposed of what are now known as the Provinces of Ontario and Quebec'. Judging from the columns of the Patriot politics were as hot then as they are now. and elthough they did- not seem to have any Gamey investigations, the charges of , brib• ery and corruption were bandied about just as glibly as they are now, and in one of the• 1)111)(34 we notice the report of a trial of a libel ;suit entered by George Brown, who was then leader of the Upper Canada Re- formers and editor of the Globe, against Mr. BeatY, the editor of the Leader, the op- posing political organ. Mr. Beaty, through the Leader, accused Mr. Brown of having " lefe New York with his creditors in the luroh.1" The election addresses of sev eral bf the candidates are publiahed in the 1361 issue, and among others is that of Wm. Ryerson, (Rev. Dr. Ryerson) to the eleotoirs nf the West Riding of the county of Brant. This is a sonaewhae spirited clocu- ment, as may be judged from the following : He says : " Aadong as I am a Canadian and' have a Canadian heart in my body and United Empire; blood in my veins, I will eever look to 'Washington, any more than to Paris or P km, for the removal of our Sooial evils o the security of our political liberties, t ough I ever look to - Washington with f elings of Food will and. eow etpecially with ,;feelings ef pity." Hey also seys : " I will not ask any man for hia vote, : Every man phat votes for me muet feel that he presents a free will offering, not ae a favor or benefit to me, but as a duty to his county end country." This ad - nice needed as much now as it was then, or -perhaps more. In those days there was open noting and the voting continued for two days and the eleotione were nob held simuleaneously as noW, but were strung out for weeks. Attorney General Macdonald was elected for Kingeton by a majority of 231 over his opponenh, Hon. Oliver Mowat, vehereupon the Pattiot remarks : " The interloper has been , sent about his busi- ness. Kingston has! rejected the 'Chancel- lor -expectant by a decisive vote. The emourit of money apent by Mr. Mowat and his friends was beyond all precedent. Bub even five hunOred pound subscrip- tions evere not suffidient to upset Mr. MacdOnald." Mr. Mowat, however, seems o have been running for another constitu- ency aa well as Kingston, for We notice he Was eleoted for South Ontario bv a majority ef 500; over. a Mr. Rowe. The Patriot feanklY admits Mr. Mewat's popularity in this constituency. It -says " We know for a fact that every third boy in the con- etituenhy is an Oliver Mowat,' and al- though; Lucy Stone doctrine hes pot yet b into practioal operation in this Pre- y nee, we all know that the ladies have'a large arhount of influeace, even in election mattere."

He was very low for a time, but the latest advices 'say that he is now almost) recovered, and will soon be able to be remoVed to his home. • BI -CENTENARY OF JOHN WESLEY'S BIRTH. —Next Sunday, June 28th, will be the 200th anniversary of the birth of John Wesley, an event which has greatly affected the religious life, not only of England, but of the Christian werld. The Methodist church, which had ite origin under Ged, in hie labors, has spread and grown, unbil, in every Christian land, and in most heathen lands also, it is bearing its witness to a definite conversiort, a personal assurance of salvation and a- life of zeal and holiness. In every 'Methodist' church in the Confer- ence' special nommemorative and thanks - eying eervioes are ordered to be held. Ac- cordingly such services will be held next Sunday, in the Methodist ohurob, Seaforth, and a cordial invitation 'is given by the pas- tor and the Methodist people to loin with them in the services of praise and conserve - tion. —Co et. DEATH OF LEO. DORSEY.—We deeply re- gret this week being called on to record the death of Mr. Matthew Leo Dorsey, third son of Mrs John Dorsey, of Seaforth. . He was a bright, promising young man of 23 years of age. He passed away ab the resi- denoe of hie mother here, on Tuesday last, after an illness of about six weeks. He had never been, very robust, but his pluok and perseverance enabled him to overcome diffi- culties which would daunt) many stronger youths, and it was hoped by his friends that he would ultimately outgrow -the defects of a weak constitution. But this was not to be. He learned the jewelry business here .with Mr. J.F. Daly,and after completing hie term he spent a year in Toronto perfecting himeelf in his Wiriness. He had only re- turned from Toronto a few days when he was attacked by,the illness which did its fatal *ark all too soon. Leo, as he was familiarly called, was a universal favorite with every person who knew him. His genial end obliging manner, coupled with a most kindly disposition, endeared hirh to all with whom he oame in contact and his early demise will be deeply regretted by many and the sincerest sympathy will be extended to the sadly bereaved mother and members of the family. The funeral services were held in St. James' church on Thursdey forenoon and were largely attended, and the remains were interred in the family plot in St. Oolumban cemetery beside those - of hie father and brother.

The weather on Saturday morning was gloomy and not promising, and .it did nob improve during the day, as rain fell most of the time from early in the morning until late in the even- ing. We doubt not, however, that the rain will have done more good to the farm- er's orops than lit did harm to the excursion - hits. Bub, notwithstanding the drawback of weather, the excursion wait largely pat- ronized. Theregular train was not suffi- cient to accommodate those who wished to avail themselves of its advanteges, and a special had to be run from Clinton, and both trains were well laden. The Grand Trunk authorities, however, are to be congratu- lated ov the excellent acconemode,tion they provided and the very efficient arrange- ments made for the accommodation and comfortable transport of the people. Guelph was reached in good time and most of the excursionists left at once for the Experi- mental Farm, where they were most hos- pitably entertained and attended to by the authorities there. The operations at the farm and college seem to be a never ending source of interest to the farming visitors, and to mese the time passed all too quickly until going honie hour arrived. The new buildinge being ereoted and equipped were an additional seuree of interest this year, and they were thoroughly examined by a great many. The run home wee made in good time and most of the excursionists, who returned on Saturday evening, would reach their home before Sunday morning, although we fear some of them may have been too sleepy and tired to attend church. A goodly number took advantage of the stop -over privilege and remained with friends in Guelph and vicinity and at other pointe along the route until the following Monday. Although the crowd was large it would have been much larger had the weath- er been more favorable as many were de- terred from going by the unpromising weather indications about starting time. There were 210 tickets sold at Seaforth station and 40 at Goderioh. We have not been able to get the figures from the other stations. Thames Road.
