beg leave to inform you that I am
before you for mayor of our town for
the year 1895; trusting I have done
nothing to forfeit your confidence. I
again very respectfully ask your vote
and support for 1895, and now thank
you very sincerely for your kindness
hitherto. When you are tired of nee
I will gracefully bow to your decision,
but am not ready to retire at the order
of a small, selfish clique."

the most fashionable event of the
season, and Mitchell "had gathered
there her beauty and her chivalry, and
bright the lamps shone o'er fair women
and brave men," as round and round
they went in the mazy dance to the
charming and exhilirating music of the
occasion. Such delightful gatherings
are always calculated to harmonize the
social spirit and intercourse of the
Community in which they are held.
Among the number who attended
were Miss Shepherd, Goderich, Miss
Vincent, Hudson Bay District, and Mr.
Warren Thomson, Seaforth.--Mitchell

' SHOWING UP SW,INDLERs.-The fol-

worked up a grime on the merchants
of Paris, duping, beating and obtain-
ing money tinder false pretences. This
scamp is well known to Contable Cook,
he having conveyed hint to the central
and other prisons more than once.
This fellow (Bert Dawson) said he
had a brother living in Drumbo.
We found him to be a professional
dead heat, a fraud and a swindler. He
canvassed the merchants of the town
for advertisments, having an advertis-
ing scheme of his own (that to heat the
nubile.) After getting the ads. he
made a contract for the printing at the
Review office, got his work done, col-
lected his money for the ads. but did
noteall to pay for the printing or de-
liver the advertising matter as promis-
ed by him and in that act defrauding
the printer and the merchants. obtain-
ing money under false pretences ; goods
and work by fraud. There are over 25
indictments that can he prepared
against him in Paris and he may yet
be brought to book and have to send
a couple of years in the central prison,
which wool 1 be too good for such dead
beats and professional tramps, going
about gulling the public. He is a man
of medium height, thin spare face,
what some term lantern jawed, sandy
complexion, wears his hat nn the back
of his head, looks like a professional
heat. Press pass him around or some
constable arrest him and bring him
back to Paris and he will be prosecuted
ata a swindler."

we have seen this winter. Mr. Win,
Mutr•phy, the veteran friend that he
certainly is, swooped down on our
sanctum a few days since with a good
supply of spare ribs and a nice sample
of pork of his own feeding. Seven
months previous two pigs were littered
and one of them tipped the beam,
dressed, at 266i pounds. We can
personally testify that the spare ribs
were very palatable and that Bro,
Murphy would he hard to beat in the
science• of raising porkers. Such rare
treats are few and far between.
BRESBYTERY OF HURON. -The Pres-
bytery met in Willis Church, Clinton,
on the 13th inst. Rev. Messrs. Ross,
of Brussels, and Davidson, late of
Wroxeter, being present, were invited
to sit as corresponding members. The
treasurer's hook was audited and
certified as found correct. Messrs.
Shaw and Martin were appointed
to address the annual meeting
of the Woman's Presbyterial Society
of Foreign Missions, in January, The
Finance Committee submitted the esti-
mate of expenditure for the ensuing
year, showing that a rate of ten cents
per fancily would be required to meet
all expenses of the Presbytery. The
Committee was authorized to raise the
amount in the usual way. The Assem-
bly's remit in it. graduating students,
and ministers received from other
churches, requiring that they give one
year's service in the mission field be-
fore being eligible for a call, was ap-
proved of sirnpliciter. Rev. Mr. Cock-
burn, of Paris, representing the Conn
mittee on augmentation, was present
and heard, setting forth the claims of
said fund on all our congregations, and
the amount expected from this presby-
tery, viz., $700 for the current year.
Mr. Cockburn was thanked for his ad-
dress, and the matter referred to the
Home Mission Committee with the
hope that the said amount he raised by
the congregations of the Presbytery.
The report on Sabbath Schools was
submitted by Mr. Acheson, recom-
mending that a Conference on Sab-
bath Schools he held on Monday after-
noon and evening, January 14th, in
Carmel Presbyterian Chur^h, Hensall,
the programme to be prepared by the
Committee. The recommendation was
adopted. Documents were read show-
ing the Amounts appointed to this
Presbytery for Home Missions, $2,150,
and for augmentation $700 for this
year. It is hoped that this sum stated
be realized. The attentian of the con-
gregations on Leebnrn and Union
Church was called at the request of the
Corntnittee on augmentation, to the
necessity of increasing the stipend of
their pastor by $50, in order that the
Assembly's fund .may be relieved to
that extent. The next regular meeting
of Presbytery is to be held in Carmel
Presbyterian Church, Hensall, on the
15th of January, at 10.30 o'clock a, nt.
