BRIDGE MATTERS. — Mr Ainsley, county road commissioner was in town this week; he had been over at Bay - geld settling up matters in connection with the bridge at that place. Ile stated that the bridge , into Colborne, near Holmesville, is now perfectly safe, although it has not been straightened. It hadbeen strengthened so that there was no danger from it.• THE HAT. TRADE.—Just at present a number of hay presses in the country are standing idle, because there is no demand for hay. Mr Cudmore, who was filling a large contract for a dealer in London, Eng., is; now shipping direct himself, and expects to handle a considerable quantity during the months of April and May. DEPUTATION. — Last week Messrs Blackall, of Clinton ;Wal ker, of Londes- boro; and Wilson, of Wingham, repre- senting the Huron Veterinary Associ- ation, attended the meeting of the Perth Veterinary Association at St. Marys, to secure the co-operation of the members in matters relating to the work of the association. TRAVEL.—Mr John Stewart, of Stanley, has gone on .a visit to his daughter at Denver. Mr J. J. Mc- Laugghlin, of Hallett, and J. B. Weir, of Clinton, left the other day to look after their interests in Manitoba,. J. Agnew (brother of R. Agnew) left this week for Chicago; all the foregoing were booked by Mr W. Jackson. CONCERT.—Nearly all the reserved seats are secured for the Nora Clench concert to -night (Friday) which is giv en under the auspices of the Foresters, And, there -is._likely to be a large a,udi-.. eiice. An opportunity to bear a musi- cian of her recognized ability, should not be lost. She will be the guest of Mr. T. Jackson, sr., while in town. A Bic STOCK.—As our readers are aware, Hodgens Bros. recently bought the bankrupt stock of A. Rolfe, in London. The goods were all new and high-priced, and as the stock was too large to unite with their own here, a portion of them were run off in the city. We understand that the balance of the stock, which still contains a large quantity of choice goods, will be brought here in a few days for disposal. ASSESSMENT.—Mr Henry Stevens has completed his work of assessing, though he has not yet got all the tables totalled. He reports a gratifying in- crease of about fifty in the population of the town. He is of the opinion that values will not show an increase, owing to depreciation. The num ber of dogs returned this year is considerably larger than previously. Mr' Stevens has until the 1st of May to complete and return his roll. LEFT TowN.—We notice in the re- port of the examination at Royal Col- lege of Dental Surgeons that Mr G. A. Newton, of town, has been successful in obtaining his degree, L. D. S. Mr Newton also wrote for the honorary title D. D. S. (Doctor of Dental Sur- gery) at Toronto University, the report of which has not yet appeared. Mr Newton moves to Lircknow, where be purposes hanging out his shingle. The people of that place will find him a good citizen, thoroughly reliable, and his many friends here wish him abun- dant success. THE FAIR.—The fair on Wednesday was much more successful than some of the previous ones had been, and it begins to look as if the efforts of the promoters would be crowned with success. Mr T. M. Carling had pro- cured 20 good milch cows and calves, all of which were put up and sold at fair prices. There was not a very ready sale for horses, although nine or ten changed hands. The next Monthly Fair may possibly be „the last one until after farmers get through with some of their spring and summer work, an extra effort should be made to have it a success. MEDICAL EXAMINATIONS.—At the recent examinations in Medicine at Trinity University, Toronto, three Huroniahs took high honors. Mr Thos. Agnew (brother of R. Agnew, Dentist)) passed his final examination. R. 13. J. Stdnbury, eldest son of Dr. Stanhury, Bayfield, stood as follows:— in the 2nd year, 1st class honors in Practical Chemistry Toxicology and Practical Anatomy; 2nd class in De- scriptive Anatomy,chhemistry, Physio- logy and Histology, 3rd class in Mate- ria Medica.
