Jamieson, of the Belleville Intelligoncer, told his fellow publishers at the meeting the other day that when he once made up his mind to adopt the pay iu advance system he struck 1800 names front his list of weekly subeer'ibers. It almost paralized many of the old standbys and never pays but the deed was done and he found that a Iar•ge proportion of those who were cut off were glad to come hack again. Why can't our subscribers do the decent thing and pay for the weekly in advance.

GIRL. ---At the com- bined exanrinatidu of the Toronto schools last week a fifteen year old daughter of Mr. J. 1V. Irwin, grocer, of this town, was awarded a first prize Art scholarship. THE VOLUNTEERS from Cliutuu re- turned house Saturday afternoon having had twelve days at the front. They looked bronzed and robust after their outing, and marched up town to the armory with a precision of military movement that would not have discredited scarred veterans. MERIT IN NOT DOING.—No w$ - papers are often criticised for what they print, but if it were known how much credit they merit for what they don't print, or for the nonsense they whack out of what is sent to them to print, they would command much more generous judgment. THERE'S MONEY Ids IT.—The Globe furniture company, of Dear- born, Mich:, have, at length, located their propcsod Canadian branch at Walkerville, Out. The new com- pany expect to employ 100 hands in the manufacture of church, school and public hall furniture. If Cana- dians well •not employ Canadian capital in industrial concerns on Canadian soil to supply the Cana- dian demand, our shrewd American friends can see where there is money to be made and locate accordingly, though it be on "blawstod" Bristle!) soil. Ain. ROBERT PORTER. M. P. pass- ed through Clinton, Saturday morning, ou his return from filling appointments in various parts of his Constituency. We are pleased to know that his parliamoitary services and his votes in the House have rat with the aitn0dt unanimous ap proval of the electorate of West Huron. Aud in the matter of' his sup- port of the Government on disallow- ance both Grits and 'Tories, by a large majority, are slit.isfied that there was no other honorable con- stitutional course open for hills to pursue than that which he follow- ed Itis lucid, logical, calm and honest explanations at the meetings which ho addressed carried convic- tion maty doubters and satisfied all reasonable mon that parliament acted- on strictly constitutional ground -by refusing to interfere with the provincial rights of Quebec. Two Kisi,s of. GOOD WORK.— We have, received from the Free Preis, Action, several Methodist re- ports, which, so far as typographical excellence and mechanical execu- tion go, are up to the high standard for which brother Moore is noted,and whose good work we have on former occasions been moved to recognize with our distinguished considera- tion. Mr, Moore's typographical works are like bases in the desert, amid tho innumerable "blacksmith" jobs,sobarren of the least artistic idea, which one finds sent out from coun- try printing offices, and sometimes frotn city job offices. But our at- tention has beou called to the mat- ter contained in Mr. Alcove's good work as well to the manner of his doing his part. The other good work is that which ,the Methodist body of Londesboro circuit have called in the aid of Mr. Moore to tell the people about. As wo have said, vile of the reports is publish- ed for the Londesboro' Circuit. It might be supposed because some healthy church discipline had been exercised out there, and the con- sequent defamatory articles publish- ed by a local paper respecting the minister and officials on that charge, that the cause must be defunct. We are glad to state that, with the above mentioned official report before us, such is not the case. The various funds of t11e church have beeu Wall supported; sovoral.of them are in ad- vance. This is all tho more com- mendable •,vlien it is known as may be seen by report that a large nuni- ber have removed by letter to other places during the past year, besides deaths &c. The ministerial sup- port is repotted at $725 besides many taiviblc expressions of the good will of the parishioners. This is as it should be. We aro of the opinion that a man possessing a good character aa a Christian minis- ter, maintained for a number of years, and his position in the Con- ference, should shield him from gratuitous abuse and newspaper in- sults, anonymously written. And what is bettor in any such report is the feet that a number of new mem- bers have been added to tho church, and tho work goes on. When a half dozen dissatisfied persons, sow discord and iimAgine and write that everything in a church or conlniun-• ity is going to the bad because they are not at the front they learn per- haps slowly, sthat the world will still wag ou and the church live without them. At any rate a know- ledge of the above facts are sufficient to retain for that church and officials the confidence and return of all whose esteem they have any occasion t0 value.

CONSERVATIVES IN LINE.—The- Conservative of East Huron met at Gorrie,Friday, and after concluding business passed resolutions of con- fidence in the Dominion Govern- ment and Ontario Opposition. A few days ago the Conservatives of South Huron did tho same thing, and at the proper time the Conser vatives of \Yost Huron will • be found in line. 1)ivlslus Coeur.—Hold in Clin- ton before Judge Doyle last Friday. '1'1`6 bas' was represented by i11eRs1'e Mannilig and Owens of Clinton; Campion, Goderich; Johnson, lllyth, and \'austono, \t' inghaul. Con- siderabl© business came before the court. Among the cases was one iu which one Jarvis sued S. CooPer fur five dollars. Jarvis' son called at Cunninghanie's grocery, Blade a trifling purchase and paid for it in smell coin. ',filet after the boy had gone out Mr. Cooper picked up e piece of paper and -put it in his pocket. Mr. • Cunningham had mon in camp, and we helietve ho is previ• ously semi file paper andwas also popular In Clinton.. ISI is not satisfied it was a back note. He so married. { remarked to Cooper who said, "yes it is a dollar bill," or bill of some_ denomination, "whiclt I have just dropped." Mr. Coopor then loft the store. I -Ie had not been gone many minutes when the Jarvis boy returned and asked about a 65 bili that he had dropped somewhere. Mr. C. sons hire to Cooper, who said the alleged bill ho picked up was only a piece of worthless paper which be had since destroyed. Mr. Jarvis sued Cooper for five Sioliars, the amount of the bill his boy had lost and on the evidence of Mr. Cuuningliatu obtained ,judgment.-- L-'.wson Moore sued . Askwith, Gooier and Scott for the value of some apples which he had ,sold Askwith. Govier and Askwith Mowed that they had nothing to do with the purchasing of the apples they merely advancing money to Askwith after the apples had been purchased by hitn. Judgment given against Askwith who we understand will endeavor to re- cover from Govier and Scott,— There was an interpleader issue to determine the ownership of a horse and butcher's cart. Dr. Stanbury of Bayfield some nine year's ago ' obtained a judgment against Geo, Haack° who not long ago bought out the butcher busi- ness of Albert May in Clinton. Haack() then bought the horse and cart in question. A fow days afterward he sold them to one Whitterton and the proprietorship of the goods and shop changed hands end Henske hired with Whitterton. A few days alter this Bailiff Dickenson seised the goods to satisfy the old judgment of Dr. Stanbury against Haacke. The court held that the claimant, Whitterton,' had established his ownership of the property and gave judgment accordingly on the facts end law. Campion, for Dr. Stanbury, contended that hie Honor's law was a:, fault and if given time,three days,he would satis- fy the court that the law would not uphold his ruling that possession of the property had passed from Haacke to Whitterton. Owens, for Whitterton, asked that the property be • returned to Whitterton in the ,neentinle, as his business was suffering •for want of them. His Honor said that Mr. Owena' request was a reasonable ono. PiutCampion then gave notice for a new trial' and in the meantime will furnish his authotities to uphold his -con- tention that according to law, the title to the property lies in Haacko and • consequently it is amenable to satisfy the judgment of Dr. Stan• bury. Tho property will remain in the possession of the bailiff for the time being. Po1l]ERY.• --Ono evening last w,eel: some person without any respect for the laws of 11101711 and /moo 'or any fear of the laws of the land stole $100 from a bureau drawer in the house of Mr. Ben Switzer, of Gode- rich township. Mr. 'Switzer had received the money in payment of some cattle and intended on the clay following to use the money in' Clinton. When he went to get it, it was 2)0n Cdf. It is 801tniSed,fr011l 11 stranger having been seen on the roi d in the vicinity ou the evening of the robbery, that the Money was taken while all the member's of 111x' family were away frolu the Louse milking the cows or otherwise engaged. FANNING Mtt.1.5.—.t peculiar fanning mill swindle is reported by a Middlesex correspondent, who writes :—Several years ago a firm started in the ,fanning mill busi- ness. They were not successful in their canvassing, so they rented a room near London market and exhibited the mill in working order. Their method was to invite farmers to inspect their mill and its work, which was apparently very good. They then asked the femora to sign in a large book a recommenda- tion of tho mill and its work, and every farmer who signed had a mill sent to him. On refusal of pay- ment they were sued. Some paid and some stood a suit, when the fraud was exposed and the business wound up. A SAD AND STRIKING Cotsctu- ENCE.—At St. Paul's Church, Ilarn- ilton, Sunday evening, in the course of his sermon, Rev. Dr. Laidlaw re- marked that many young men who had been members of the congrega• tion within recent years are now living in cities and towns through- out Canada, the United Status and elsewhere, as strangers. Among the distant places he mentioned Ger- many, having in mind Mr. August Eckhardt, a very highly esteemed young member of St. Paul's Church, who has been pursuing the study of music at Leipsig since August,1887. While Dr. Laidlaw was speakinga messenger called' at the ehuroh and cont up a note to the pulpit, saying that a cablegram had just been re• oeived from Leipsig telling the Rad news of the sudden death of Mr. Eckhardt , oia Friday evening lest, Tho note, which was from the brother of the deceased, also con• tainod the request that Dr. Laidlaw would break the painful news to Mr Eckhardt's mother, who was sitting in her pew, thinking of her absent son, but little dreaming of' the sor- rowful tidings that awaited her. fl[1fl's li'ornising &ood.

But any port in a storm, and this expression of delight, though it transcends the bounds of philological nicety, is al- lowable when one hears of the safety on terra firma of those who have 'gone down to the sea in ships to reach the old ocean separated soil, whether that soil be productive of thistles or shamrocks or roses.
