The Green Farm, on the 2nd con. of Hibbert, was sold last week by auc- tion, and wasurchased by Mr John Oldfield, of Tuckersmith, for $4,100. The farm contains 100 acres. Mr Wm. Bradley, of Wingham, was called to Harriston, last week, by the death of his sister, Mrs Thos. Walker, of that town. The deceased leaves a husband and seven small children to mourn their loss. We regret to chronicle this week the death of Miss Lottie L. Eacrett, second eldest daughter of Mr Christopher Eacrett, of near Sexsmith, which sad event occurred at her father's resi- dence, on Saturday last, after a linger- ing illness of three years. On Thursday of last week, James, son of Mr Geo. Delgarno, of East Wa- wanosh, died after an illness of about two weeks, in his 29th year. The de- ceased was an exemplary young man, and at the time of hie death was an elder in the Calvin Presbyterian church. Mr James Rankin met"With-air aeci-- dent in the Broadfoot & Box, furniture factory, Seafortb, the other day. He was working the joiner and got his hand caught, with the result that the third finger on his left hand was ta- ken off, This makes the third acci- dent to parties running this machine, inside of two weeks. We understand that Dr McInnis, who has been practising at Mont Car- mel, in the township of Stephen for several years, has disposed of his prac- tice there and intends locating in Sea - forth. He has rented the residence of Mr John Downey. The doctor is a clever practitioner, a reliable ycung man ;and will be a valuable acquisition to the professional ranks of Sea - forth. On Monday Last Seaforth lost two of its best citizens in the persons of Mr and Mrs John R. Lyon, who will in fu- ture make their home in Toronto, Mr Lyon having been offered a position as valuator for an insurance company, with headquarters in Toronto. While both will be muchamissed in town, Mrs Lyon's loss will be especially felt in the Presbyterian;church where she has ever been an indefatigable woi ker. Arthur Cornyn, of Colborne town • ship, has purchased the north half of lot 4, con. A., containing 100 acres, known as the Jas. Harrison farm, for the sum of $2,350. This farm was of- fered for sale by public auction last April, and the highestbid received was $2,000; it was va ithdrawn, and now sells for $350 more. The land is good, but the fences and buildings are poor. Recently Mr and Mrs Daniel Wood, of Exeter, went into the country to visit friends, and remained away fif- teen days. They unconsciously locked their fine collie dog in the woodshed, where the animal remained untiLtheir return,without having eaten any food. When Mr Wood opened the door, the dog sprang out, and proved to be as lively as ever, though so thin that it was hardly recognizable. There passed away on Monday of Last week one of the first settlers in Turn - berry township, in the person of Sam- uel Black, at the good age of 73 years. Deceased located in the wilds of that township in 1855. His energy and ability early manifested itself among his neighbors. and when in 1857 the township conceded ;from East and West Wawanosh he was chosen reeve. He represented the township at the county council during the years of 1858-59. 1861, 1875-79. The Belgrave fall show, under the auspices of the East Wawanosh Agri- cultural Society, was held on Monday and Tuesday of last week, in the Agri- cultural park, Belgrave. The weath- er on Monday was decidedly against the directors, but on Tuesday the eun came net, and in the afternoon espe- cially the weather was almost as good as anyone could wish. The directors had spared no pains in getting a list of attractions and prizes, and it is to their efforts that the success of the fair is due. Judge Doyle, on Wednesday, grove judgment in an important will case, tried before him some time ago. Mrs Sheriff, late of West Wawanosh, died, having first made a will, but after her death the will could not be found. Wm. Sheriff, one ot the sobs, brought an action aeking for administration of the estate, and John Sheriff set up the lost will 11) defence. The action was tried at Goderich before His Honor Judge Doyle, when judgment was re- served* and was just given Last week, when the plaintiff's action was dismiss- ed, the learned• judge upholding and establishing the will set up by the de- felt.4ent. Charles Proctor has purchased• the north half of lot 9, con. 4, Mor'ris,owned by the late James Proctor, from Mrs Proctor: The faem IT one of the best in the township, and the price paid was a good one. Mr Proctor is one of, if not the largest, land owners in the township. KARL'S CLOVER ROOT, the great blood purifier, gives freshness and clear- ness to the complexion and cures Consti- pation, 26 ate., 60 ote., 91. Sold by J. H. Combe, Clinton. Mrs Henry Mason has sold her farin on the 4th con. L.R.S., Tuckersmitb, to Mr Alex. Gordon, for the sum of $2,900. The farm contains 50 acres, and was purchased from Mr Gordon's father a few years ago, so that Mr Gordon now owns the farm on which he was born. One of the most exciting incidents of the Wroxeter show was a contest oc- casioned by the offer of a special prize for the lady who could harness a horse, hitch it to a buggy and drive once around the track and • get in first. There were three eontestants,viz.: Mrs ,D. Moffatt and Miss Agnes Stewart, Turnberryl and Mrs W. Pelton, East Wawanosh. The horses were stripped of their harness, and the harness laid on the ground in the same position for each lady. The wet d being given they made some remarkably rapid motions, and it was not long until they were into their buggies. They nearly all started at once. Getting on the horses' bridles seemed to trouble them most. Mrs Moffatt got a little the start add kept ahead until she got nearly to the goal, but, mistaking the place, she stopped too soon, and was passed by the other two. Mrs Pelton and Mise Stewart were vei y close, in fact so close that their buggies collided after they passed the score, and both -came nearly spilling, but the horses were caught by the hy-standers beforb any damage was done more serious than the twist- ing of an axle on one buggy, and a broken shaft on the other. Mrs Pelton, having got in first, was awarded the prize. pair aged ewes and sbeerling ewes. FAT SHEEP. --Beat fat sheep, Jas. Snell, Jas Tabb. PIGS.

A boy testified at the Winnipeg Po- lice Court that his aunt, Catharine Douglass, had burned him with a hot poker as punishment for stealing. While a steam barge was passing up the St. Clair River some person tired at a horse belonging to Mr James Nes- bitt, Courtright, killing it instantly. Rev Mr Madill, at one time chief of the P.P.A., has been telling the elect- ors of West Lambton that they should vote against Mr James Lister, M.P., because he has failed toet a post office building for Sarnia.

The Attorney -General of the United States has been informed that a ea - loon keeper has moved a post marking the boundary between that country and Canada, in northern New York, about ten feet into United States ter- ritory, for the purpose of confusing the excise officers. 1 George Quick, of Colchester South, went to Maidstone to trade a horse, and got two in exchange. He hitched one to his buggy and led the other, but only got as far as Essex, when the horse in the 'shafts fell dead. He left it at the side of the road and went on with the other. His troubles were not over yet, for he had not gone far when the second horde fell dead also, and he had to walk home. --A "bonanza" farmer of Dakota, Mr W. F. Kelso, of Kittson, says that smut in wheat is an avoidable evil, re- sulting from the constant use of the same seed on the same ground. "Some process of deterioration goes on and smut is the consequence. I always change the seed, and this year I had fields that were entirely free from smut, while land only a few feet away across an imaginary line produced wheat that was full cf smut. My neighbor had used the same seed right along, while I have changed mine." At Lemont, near Chicago, three me were eating their dinners in the shad of a powder box, and began to smoke. One man thrust a lighted match in a crack of the box and exploded sixty potinds of powder. The, men were blown twenty feet away, and fright- fully burned. One man, whose hack was a sheet of Haines, plunged into a pool of water. When drawn out some .of the flesh from his back remained in the water. The ribs of another were hared, and none of the men can re- cover. Milburne's Cod Liver Oil Emulsion with Wild Cherry and Hypophosphitee combines the curative powers of Wild Cherry Hy• pophosphitee of lime and Bode and pure Norwegian Cod Liver Oil in perfectly pal- atable form. It is the beet for coughs, colds and all lung troubles. The Ontario Provincial Secretary, Hon. J. Gibson, has started the reasons for the Government dropping the bind- er twine business. The factory bas been mainly instrumental in causing the price to be reduced to its present standard, says he. The small percent- age which the value of labor hears to the cost, of r eve material and risk in buying fibre are the principal reasons of the change decided upon. The ne- cessity of employing travellers, and the inadvisability of sales on credit were t he reasons for introducing a con- tractor who assnmee the risk of buying fibre and the expense of selling the twine. "My God i it is my son 1" were the words Mail Clerk Dorian exclaimed at Harkia Junction, Que., as he got down from the postal car of the Intercoionial train to look at a young man run over in attempting to board the Halifax ex- press, which passed there at the rate of eight miles per hour. The young man had fallen between the cars. His skull was crushed and leg mangled and torn. He was visiting relatives at the place of the accident, and tried to board the train to proceed home at Quebec, when the accident took place. He will die. ChIldr.n tory for Pittohtes adt Dr Smyth is again to oppose M r Mr Illzi'try in Kingston. The night operator at the O.P.R, star tion at Myrtle, was last 1l'riday night knocked down, bound andagged,after which his assailants robbed the Ex- press and .[railway Company of over $2,000, and also carried off the opet at- or's valuables. The operator was found about 4 a.m„ bya freight conductor, in the baggage room, still unconscious, but he soon revived when released from his bonds. Mr. A. H. Dymond considers that the larger nee of lay workers, especially of men, would add much to the effroienoy ot the Anglican Church. The Huron Angli- can Ley Workers, he says, are a great power in Western Ontario, organized not only to prodide for ohuroh services, but church workers - in every department of church effort. Mr. Dymond has gathered statistics from every diocese in the Angli- can communion, The late Mr Mellanley, of Port Colborne, bequeathed 820,000 to the Methodist dbnroh, $10,000 to the Superannuation Fund, and a like amount to the Home Missions. Esoh of these branches of the oharoh the other day received a cheque for 08000 on account, the balanoe to follow. The residue of the deoeaeed'e estate, sup- posed to be worth $40,000, was devised to the General Missionary Society. While New Yorkers were sweltering in torrid heat a week ago last Friday, a man was frozen to death in a heavy snow storm that was then raging in another part of that great country. Tnis was in the mountains, thirty miles east of Livingston, Mon. The man was a prospector, and was with a party try- ing to cross the divide. A blinding snow storm swept down on the moun- tains, the man became separated from his party, and a few days later his body was found under three feet of snow, within 500 yards of the camp, In many towns of the Western States, and even in some cities, so called, it is the inalienable right of the residents to pasture their cows in the public streets, and some ill advised at- tempts to restrict or abolish the priv- ilege have almost caused revolution. But the groceryman of Manistigite, Mich., have started out to have the cows banished from the streets of that town, or else to make the town trea- surer pay them liberally for the priv- ilege the cows enjoy. The grocers complain that the cows have ceased to browse on the ordinary pasturage the streets afford, and now make a dead set for the vegetables displayed in front of their stores, and oftentimes entirely clean the local market of green gro- ceries before the ordinary customers have a chance.

GRAHAM, Nurseryman, Toronto Sept 20, 13w R -I -P -A -N -S A FARM ON FIRE. A singular spectacle is presented on the J. H. Dowell farm near Montpelier, Ind., which attracts hundreds of visit- ors daily. It is the curiosity of a farm of 00 acres which literally is being de- stroyed by lire. Much of the land in the vicinity of the Dowelllace is muck to a depth of 12 or 14 feet, the vegetation having accumulated and slowly decayed for many years, The recent dry weather bas made this peat as inflammable as tinder, and when fire reached it a few,days ago it ignited and has been burning slowly ever since. Altogether 60 acres have been burn ed over, 35 acres having been consum- ed, while 25 acres are yet burning. The flames do not break out from the soil, but the whole surface is covered with dense smoke, the ground at times assuming the dull red glow of burning brick. It is utterly impossible to ex- tinguish the fire, and the energies of the neighbors are directed to saving adjacent property. The fire on the Dowell farm is more disastrous in a financial way than is popularly imagined. The 25 acres now being consumed are three feet lower in the center than when the flames began their ravages. The peat, or muck, dried out by the intense heat, will con- tinue to burn until the water line is reached, the fire will then die out, and when the ashes which are left blow away, there is nothing left but a large, dry pond, as unproductive as an aban doned gaavel pit. For the next two or three generations the land is worth- less, and it acquires value only as the vegetable growth again collects and forms a new coat of soil. Near the burning muck, separated only by a ditch which workmen are now laboring industriously to widen, is a tract of 110 acres, an unbroken area of peat. Should this take fire from the land now burning it will be impossible to save any part of it, and 170 acres altogether of Mr Dowell's land will have been consumed.
