Livingstone preached the memorial •sermon of. 'the late Mr, David Welsh. His text was Hebrews XI and 13, "These all died in faith. After speaking of faith as the act of God and the gift of God and the necessity of living in faith so as to die in faith, in. forcible words, he in closing re- ferred in tender terms to the close, of the life of the departed knowing, that he had died in faith ; he had yielded himself to Christ and wit; nessed for him ; and that the ver- dict of the people and neighbors was that he never wronged a man out of a dollar and that he was a good neighbor. Mr Livingstone also referred in eloquent terms to the kindness and assistance he had received, when a mere boy at Bayfield, from the late Mr. And- rew Rutledge, who had passed away to be forever with the Lord. 1 itis 111,.D 8110,—One jay last week Tr.

The Alder- man is a brother of Mr. D. B. Cal- bick now of Wiughain :—"Ald. J. A. Calbick was born in Brantford, Ont., but at an early age with his parents removed .to the County of HIuron, settling at Holrnesville on the Goderich road. That was when the magnifi'c©nt country stretching from Lake Ontario to Lake Huron was known as the "Huron Tract," then largely owned by the Cauada Company and the Crown and designated as 'the "Queen's Bush." At the age of 23 years he left the old homestead for far-off British Columbia and the Fraser river country. For six years he prospected in Cariboo. Leaving the Province in 1866, he passed four years in California. In 1870 he returned to Ontario, but in T876 came back to New \Vestlniuster, where he has since remained, carrying on a successful business as a contractor. ' He has already been elected six times on the Council, and for the past eleven years has been a trustee of the public schools. He is regarded as a safe, progressive, public-spirited man." ST. PAUL'S S.S.ANNIVERSARY.-The anniversary was held on ' Friday evening March lst. The following programme had been, prepared by the 'Teachers, and successfully carried out by the children. A short address was given by the Rector, stating the present standing of the school and increased atten- dance, and the character of the teaching as most encouraging. It may be added that while in numbers St. Paul's S. S. is not° large, it is supplied with a most efficient staff of earnest teachers. At the close of the children's. part, Mr. Stone- man of Hamilton who happened to be in town gave two excellent recitations to the delight of every one. The following programme was presented :—Address, Rev. Mr. Craig ; Tableau, the old woman in the shoe ; Dialogue, "Girls" Miss Holmes s Class ; Duet, Bolla Creo and Jomima Holmes; Recitation, Stewart Plunnuor; Sermon, Dun- can C.

RURAL DEAN CRAIG when out on a missionary tour at Dun- gannon and other places in the north part of the county, week be- fore last, had a rough time. The journey by stage from Goderich was duriug the coldest day this winter, and the roads were drifted so that he had to vary the monotony of the journey by at times going ahead of the horses and tramping down the snow, then with muscular christi- anity grasping a fence rail And pry- ing up the snow imbedded sleigh. Going to Lucknow to take train for Wingham and Clinton, he there had the glad tidings imparted 16 him that the train had boon can- celled and he had the pleasure of a drive back to Dunganuon and thence to Goderich by Mage. THE Sexorr capacity for and love of outdoor sports seems inborn'• in the transplated race in Canada and enables the participants to accornpl- -ish a larger amount of indoor work than they would otherwise bo cap- able of doing, and preserves m]ten,s sana in corpore salsa. A lover of robust winter sports is Mr. R. S. .Williams, manai;er of the Bank of Commerce at Goderich, and. one afternoon last week he, along with Mrs. Williams, tramped on snow- shoes from Goderich to Clinton, making exceedingly good time and was not a bit " blown " on arriving hero. His young son tramped on snowshoes as far as Holmesville. Such sport conduces to moral and physical strength. TOWN COUNCIL.—Met Monday night, Mayor in the chair.

MAYOR WHITEHEAD was able t0 take his seat at the Council on Monday night ; and Reeve McMur- chie was heartily greeted by his friends on his appearance again after his close call of a month or so ago. After the council adjourned his Worship invited the members of the council and others to partake of oysters at Anderson's, where, after mellowing their palates with the denuded bivalvular shell -fish stewed after the most approved fashion, deputy reeve Manning proposed the health of the father, or he 'night say the grandfather, of the Hub, and in a few felicitous remarks congratulated the town on having his Worship at the head of municipal affairs, and complimen- ted him on the able manner he had discharged his duties, His Wor- ship felt proud to ho so honored, and pledged himself to do all in his powor to forward the interests of the town 'and offered a few practical .suggestions as to how all could help in the same direction.

JAMES STUART, who diad last week at Iris late residence, 2.14 Richmond street west, 'Toronto, was, we believe, the oldest Presbyterian minister in Canada. He was bora at Coothill, County Cavan, Ireland, iu 1804, and was educated at Bel- fast College under Drs. Cook and Edgar. Iu'' 1347 Rev. James - Stuart ca'ile to Canada and settled at -Frampton, Quo: After leaving Frampton be accepted a call to the pulpit of the Markham Presbyterian church, then working in connection with the Church of Scotland. Next ho assumed the lniuistry of the Goderich church and the Wawa oish,eong.regatiou, where he labored for several ' years. A .unanimous call to the charge of the Old Kirk, at Woodstock;- took deceased away from Godorich, and after a long period of service in the last locality he retired and settled in Brantford. After living in Brantford for five years he came to Toronto. The following family survive to mourn his death: Rev. James G. Stuart, of Balderstoue ; Dr. W. T. Stuart, of Toronto ; Mrs. Dr. Stanbury, of Bay- field, and Miss Florella Stuart. The late Rev. J. L.

A ROLAND FOR IIIS OLIVER.—An incident took place at a sitting o Division Court here, a mouth o more ago, which we forgot to men tion at the time but which is worth recording. Those who know lawyer Campion will agree that he is s well up in legal lore that he is sel- dom at a loss to fortify his argumen by quoting precedent iu support o it, and that he is equally ready in original repartee. On the occasion we refer to he was nonplussed. Ba the hest laid plans of mice and men aft gang aglee. Mr. Campion wa for the plaintiff in a suit to recover some property which was alleged to have been sold by an insolvent much below its value, the purchasers as also. alleged, being aware of the insolvent condition of the vendor. Mr. Haywood was in the witnes box and stated that he had purchased some of the property in question. Being asked if he knew the vendor was insolvent when he purchased th goods, he said was not. He wa then asked to state how the transac- tion occurred. He said the vendor me him and asked him to make the put chase. The witness remarked that h had heard the vendor was in- solvent, and received assuranc that he was not, though lI was hard up for funds. "0," said Mr. Campion, "you told us a few minutes ago that you did not know he woe insolvent, and now you tell u. that you had heard lie was insole ent." "But," said the witness, " do not believe everything I hear. have heard many things that I did not believe and don't yet" "Ca you give us an instance," said Mr Campion." "Yes," ' replied th witness, "about a• year ago I hear I was dead. t had been sick, an my friends at Woodstock wrote t my family here condoling wit them, but I did not believe and don' believe vet that I am dead." Mr Campion changed the line of exam ination. --._r,.. .§.__ JLL J L i § 3 . #I�II:r I §I a; ! �JIF� �r ..,f.,,,,r,,,+a,o n 1. ''-- t ff►,I �i IITI!
