Mr. W. M'bRrien, late of Hallett, started on Mon• '-dsrti,r California, bus expects to lie aver in Port Huron for a short time ; his mother, has taken up her residence in town. On Monday J.

A horse belonging to Mr. W. -Doherty, attached to a cutter in which were his son, and Mr. Uet.ew, his father- in-law, ran away • on Monday morning, throwing` boths out, butdoing-noparticu- lar damage. Mrs. Saville intends to build a new cottage on Rattenbury St., and has let the contractto Mr. Henry Stevens. Miss Lizzie. Gorrell, who bus been confined to the house for a logg tiee, is now fully restored to health and able to be out. Mr. Geo. Beesley talks of moving out to Southern California ; we would be sorry to lose him, as he is an in- dustrious young man. Mr. and Mrs. Becon expect to leave for their home in the Northwest, next week. Mr. Arthur Tyndall,who recently rented the Colelough farm; has commenced the milk business. Mi. W,_...Downs,sof..Manch ester, _.hasping. sold his -property there, intends to take up his residence in the recognized hub of the county—Clin:on If there were a number of houses • in. town to rent, they would quickly find tenants in persons who wish to move here. We understand that Mr. Thomas Stanbury is about to retire from business; he has been actively engaged in business about as long' aa any men in the town. We understand that Mr: W. Gregg 'intends to erect a couple of frame houses' this year, and has let the contract to Mr. D. Buchanan. Mrs. Boyd, sister of•Mts. Whitt, is here on a visit Mra. D. A. Forrester has gone on a visit to friends at Mitchell. We are sorry to learn that Mrs, Thos. Stevenson, who, bas been ill for some time, is still very poorly. Mr. Reynolds, of Plattsville, has taken • up his residence in town, bolding a position with Mr. M. Fischer. Mr. T.

A Special excursion will leave Clinton stat - tion for D'akota.on Tueaday,the 15th inst., at about 4 p. m., those going west should make arrangements accordingly. Early on Tueedey morning fire was discovered in the cellar of the grocery store of C. J. Tuthill, (Woodstock,) tormerly of Clinton, which"fortunately wes soon subdued, hut not without considerable loss to stock and building. Cadet Young, of the Army,has -gone to Chesley. ; Cadet Dogleish has been promoted. to the ,position of Lieutenant, and moves to Moorefield ; Capt. Ballan- tyne, from it aniiver. comes here. The wife of the lata H. McMullen, intends to return to the home of her father at Belle- ville. It is reported that the wife of Mr. W. L. Newton, formerly of Clinton, is dangerously ill at Goderich ; we hone the report may turn nut, to be exaggerated.— From the report of the Inspector of Asy- lums for Ontario, we learn that during 1885, 13 persr•ns were sent from this coun- ty to the Asylum for Insane, and alsothat tbfre are 69 persons from Hurpn perman- ently residing in London Asylum, 9 in Toronto, and 7 in the Hamilton Asylum. it is not to the credit of the town that the sidewalk to the station has not been clean- ed off before this; men may be willing to trudge unconcernedly through a rot of slush, but it is not very 'nice for ladies to be compelled to do so. All Fool's Day will be on Friday; Good Friday, on April the 8th. Merchants are opening up their spring gnarls.

Tedford, to the position so long 'held by Mr. Paisley, as Chief Con- stable. Among the applicants were several swbo___would_have_ :acceptably filled .the office, but the council, after.duly weigh- ing the matter in committee, decided on the appointment of Mr. Tedford. He is -well-known to our citizens, bears a rept- tation above reproach, and we feel satisfied will do his utmost to discharge the duties of his office without fear, favor or partiality. 'Ile at once enters on his works -sand we believe.the townspeople will givehim any assistance and encouragement, necessary to strengthen his hands... • ' •• Doaree—During the past five years we have recorded the death of no less than .-live; of the children 'Of Mrs. McLeod, of this town, and to this number is added another, her only remaining 8011 Charles, having -fallen "a victim-to.consumption on Thursday afternoon last.

Froin there he came to Clinton, thence to Listowel, and his last active work was done in London West. Time years ago he was superan- nuated onaccount of ill -health, and has been residing in London ever,since,- br. Fowler was a main of marked pecularities, extensive reading, and oforiginal thought.
