AFTER 25 YEARS.—The editor of TsiE NEWS -RECORD was pleased to have a call last Wednesday from Mrs. McGregor, of Walkerton. The space of 25 years has not worn the good old lady's happy countenance. THE LATE MRS. SAMUEL REID.— There died on the 4th concession, township of Stanley, on the 24th inst., Jennet, beloved wife of Mr. Samuel Reid, aged 40 years and 9 months. The deceased had suffered great pain from infammatory rheumatism during the past four years and the final summons was - a welcome •call. The lady had been confined to bed since January. The deceased was a consist- ent Presbyterian and leaves a husband and six children to mourn a devoted wife and Christian mother. The funeral last Saturday to Baird's ceme- tery was largely attended. Goon ADVICE.—Drivers should re- member that a man who wants to, go faster than they do has a right to pass hire on the r oad. If he is prevented by the other and an accident happens because of the latter's interference, the obstruc- tionist is responsible for the damage. B No man in the eyes of the law has a right to infringe on the rights of his neighbor or cheek the latter in passing. He, is in fact, obliged to assist him to pass. There are a large number of people in every community who do not seem to appreciate this fact. Riders on bicy^les are also entitled to have half the road. If compelled to turn out in rough places, they are likely to break their wheels and in that case would have a good action for dam- ages. I4$AN'E neVir hotel is ,under way. Mn. D.

' HE GOT SPLICED.—The Blyth Stand- ard says:—On Monday evening last the cotenuous blowing of the factory whistle surprised our citizens, and inane o thecal conic to the conclusion that it was an alarm of fire or some other calamity. It was the way some of the boys took to congratulate Mr. Ingram, one of the firm of Werry & Ingram, on his return accompanied by his bride, nee Miss Middleton, of Luck - now. Mr. Ingram ;surprised every- body, the affair was kept so quiet, but he has set a good example to many of our town bachelors. Go and do like- wise boys. We join with our citizens in wishing the happy couple a long and happy life together. PRESBYTERY OF HURON.—An ad- journed meeting of the Presbytery of Huron was held in Clinton on Tuesday of last week. The official transfer of Donald Guthrie, B. A., from the Presbytery of Montreal to that of Huron being read by the clerk, the Presbytery proceeded to hear his trial discourses—a Greek critical exercise on Acts 10, 31-43: ,i`n expository lecture on Gal. 4, 1-7, and a popular sermon on Mark 1, 15. After the meinbers of Presbytery had expressed themselves in commendatory terms he was form- ally licensed to preach. A deptitation consisting of the Rev. A. McLean and J. A. Hamilton was appointed to visit Manchester and Smith's Hill to ascer- tain the mind of these congregations towards admitting Leeburn as a part of that charge in the event of Union church, Goderich township, uniting with Bayfield and Bethany. The call from Union church, Brucefield, in favor of Rev. A. Stewart, of Clinton, was then taken up. Reasons for the translation of Mr. Stewart were read, and answers thereto by the Clinton church. Commissioners from Bruce - field were heard in support of their call—Mr. Fotheringham on behalf of the sessions and Mr, Graham from the congregation. From Clinton the fol- lowing persons appeared to oppose the the call: Mr. Houston from the ses- sion, Mr. McMurchie, Mr. Innis, Jas. Scott, John McGarva from the congre- gation, and Mr. McTavish from the young people. Mr. Fotheringham and Mr. Graham were then heard in reply, when Mr. Stewart addressed the court and left the matter in the hands of the presbytery to decide. The presbytery then engaged in prayer led by the clerk, in which the guidance of God was sought, and the presbytery after considering the matter refused to translate Mr. Stewart, and accordingly set aside the call, at the same time ex- pressing sympathy with the Bruce - field people in their present disappoint- ment. There was great rejoicing in Clinton because of the presbytery's de- cision.—COat, HURON COUNTY ROUSE OF REFUGE. —The Woodstock Sentinel -Review of Friday last says :—Dr. Andrew Mackay *Aviv on Monday received a letter from Mr. W. Proudfoot, chairman of the Huron county house of refuge committee, who visited Woodstock to inspect the Oxford county house of refuge some time ago. They were highly pleased with the building and propose to erect one in Huron which will be almost identical in detail, but on a slightly cheaper basis. The different requisites of construction were embodied in the communication with the request that the doctor hand them to the architect who designed Woodstock's building. Their building is to be of brick, two stories high, capable of accommodating seventy-five patients. It will be situated one mile from Clinton station. A HAPPY FLAG RAISING.—The fol- lowing from the Empire of Saturday will be of deep interest to many of our readers, as several of the names men- tioned are well and favorably known in Clinton, Goderich and other sections of the County of Huron :—Sault Ste. Marie, Ont., May 24.—There was no public celebration here to -day, but two events. of a semi -social character, in which many of the leading citizens par ticipated, are worthy of being recorded as evidencing the loyalty of the people of this border town. In the forenoon, at the residence of Mr. J. Joseph Wil- son, about seven miles out of the "Soo," the clay was honored by the firing of 21 rounds from two cannons which the patriotic major, now over 70 years of age, has preserved as valued relics of General Wolseley's Red River ex- pedition. In the afternoon, at the re- sidence of Mr. McDowell, a loyal and wealthy resident of the town, the cere- mony of hoisting the Union Jack was performed in the presence of the Mayor and many leading citizens, while the band played the national anthem. His Honor Judge Johnston, amid the enthusiastic plaudits of those present, hoisted the flag to the°top of the tall pole which Mr. McDowell has placed at the entrance of his palatial home. This done, the large assemblage, headed by Mayor Plunsmer, entered the house and were gratified to find that a grand banquet had been prepar- ed for the occasion. Patriotic speeches were delivered by Judge Johnston Judge O'Connor, Mayor Plummer, Mr. Duncan Bole, license. commissioner; Mr. M. McFadden, barrister; Mr. Abbott, Indian agent ; Dr. Bradley ; Mr. Kuderling, ex -American consul; Capt. Towers ; R. A. Lyon, registrar ; Robert RRrsh and others.
