on the gravel road, a short distance
from, town owned by Mr Hill of Brus-
sels, has been purchased. by, Mr. John
Shobbrook of Hullett, for the sum of
$1825 cash. There is a frame house and
outbuildings on the place, and while
the property is by no means high, a
very good sale has been made. Mr.
Shobbrook will move on it in the
spring.

ACCIDENT.—The B. & L. H. train,
coming west, met with an accident on
Monday that delayed it for a consid-
erable length of time. When near
Drumbo, the axle of one of the driving
wheels broke, the wheel spinning off,
and going some distance into a field
near by. Tne engineer promptly ap-
plied the air brakes and brought the
train to a stop before it could turn
over, although partly off the track.
Rev. A. Stewart was a passenger on
board the train; no particular harm
was done.
A FARMER'S LETTER.—We have a
letter from a farmer, dealing with the
recently published letters of Mr J.
Kernighan, of Cotborne, and Mr Fee,
of Lindsay. It is written in a calm
and fair manner, dealing minutely and
exhaustively with the question of the
farmer's position, but being somewhat
long, is held over until next week.
We shall be glad to publish letters
from any farmer who wishes to venti-
late his views on the matter, either for
or against the question under dis-
cussion.
THE CASH SYSTEM.—"Oen the cash
system be made a success in busineso?"
is the question asked by many a mer-
chant, who get tired of long credit
' and bad debts. It is a success in some
places, and as our readers already
know, two business houses here, the
Estate John Hodgens and W. Taylor
& Sons, introduced it on the let of the
present month. They express their
determination to abide by it, believing
that it is in the interest of both buyer
and sellkr, as goods will be sold at a
much lower rate, and the success or
otherwise of their effort will be watch-
ed closely by other business mei
Every eifoFEt to do business on cash
principles should be warmly encour-
aged by the public, for they are the
gainers, as well as the business men,
and there is not a business man in
burne, where he is employed. Mr W.
Coats, who is one of the county audi-
tor, will go to Goderich next week in
connection with his duties; by -the -
way, County Treasurer Holmes states
that the best -executed and most legible
reports he receives are those of Town
Clerk Coats. Dr. Ogden, of Toronto,
the Liberal candidate for the Local, is
a cousin of Mrs Mrs W. McKeown, of
town. We are pleased to see Mr W.
Harland out again as usual. Mr and
Mrs Hill, of Brussels, and Mr P. Fer-
guson and wife, of Dakota, are visiting •
with Mr J. W. Hill, of town. The
many friends of Dr. Worthington,
will deeply regret to hear that he lies
almost at the point of death, with very
little prospect of recovery. Mr Bur-
ley R. Streets, of Helena, Montana,
was in town last week, visiting his
brother, Harry Streets; he has met
quite a number of Clintonians in He-
lena, and all are doing well. Mr T. E.
McDonough has opened a boot and
shoe store in the Jackson block, Huron
street, and for the present his office
will be -located in connection with that
business. Mr W. McDonald, of Sun-
set, W. T., son of Mr Hugh McDonald,
of town, has recently met with a sad
bereavement by the loss c. two pro-
mising boys by scarlet fever. In a
recent letter from Mr T. C. Calbick,
now of Moodysville, B. C., he speaks
of the people there as "running their
lawn mowers and taking life easy;
well, theyare taking life easy here,
but they aven't started to run their
lawn mowers. Town Clerk Coats in-
forms us that so far he has received no
replies to the advertisements offering
inducements to industries to locate
here. We are sorry to hear that Mr
John Junor continues in very poor
health. Mr Smith Kilty is now able to
sit up; he has had a _pretty long siege.
Messrs. Forrester, Ransford and Fair
are each stall -feeding about sixty head
of cattle. Mr. Geo. F. Emerson has
opened a piano wareroom next to Coo-
per's book store. Mr. Jos. Chambers,
ofs;ondon, is visiting here. Mr. Thos.
