S. Miller last Fri- day from a friend in the Tranevaal Re- publio, and which was just amonth reach- ing Clinton:— I have not written so , long that I expect you think I have been killed by rinderpest or eaten up by locust, but on account of changes in the head of our department work has been doubled, but having a few spare hours I thought I would write and let you know all our news. Rinderpest, I am glad to say, has completely died out of South Africa but has left very few in cowwlparison of the cattle we had here and one species of book, viz. "Hoodoo" has in some parts been completely ex. tinguished, in some parts finding as many as 5to 60 skeletons in one place. Johannesburg, the London of South Africa, as well as Pretoria, the capital of Transvaal, and several of the other towns in Transvaal have the smallpox at present, Johanesburg in particular having a rough time ot it. Dozens of deaths have 000urred daily but up to the present we have not had it here al- though it is supposed to be forty miles from here. Our district surgeon has gone down to investigate the matter al- though the majority of Barbertonians refuse to boli ve it and it's hard to say whether it i oorreot or not. We had o *locusts here for some time till lately, but we have had several small swarms during the past month and last week we had a swarm that took between two and three hours to pass over the town assisted by a strong northwest wind. The Swazi() scare is just about finished The preliminary trial of the king for mur- der has just commenced. Hewitt get off I think. The executive oouncil have de- cided to disband all volunteers through, - out the republic. My own humble opinion is that there are too many of the "Int - lenders" in the corps is the reason that they are disbanding them. There bas been a rumor floating about that the British Government has taken or is going to take over Delagoa bay and if it Domes true then there is still a show for poor old Barberton. Any rate according to the latest cables grams Portugeee bonds jumped up £2 with one rise. We are having fearfully dry and waren weather, the town running short proper ly of water, the water work committee having had to arrange certain parts of the town to receive water only certain hours. Their greatest mistake was getting the water too near the town whereas by another three miles of pips ing they could have got enough to feed a plaoe ten times as big all the year round. A short while ago the topic of the day was the "Von Weldtheim" trial for murder of Woolf Joel, the thinking head of Barnato Bros, in Johannesburg. It seems Von Weldtheim came to South Africa on some politioal work and dur- ing tha course of business met Joel and eventually went to Joel for money and while talking to him was shot at by a olerk in the office, Joet drawing a revol- Z watch Keep!n Time It should—no rea- son .why it should not.

M. was indicted for murder , only and in the summing up of the judge at the end of the trial which lasted seven days, the opening was as follows: "I want you In your capacity as jurymen to combine common aense with justioe. If you do not think the accused fired first shot you must give him the benefit of the doubt and bring in a verdict of not guilty, and not guilty he was brought in. He was re• arrested for blaokmail and violent assault on leaving the court, but on account of knowledge possessed by him he was put over the border by the Gov- ernment and outlawed from the rrana- vaal. Every one of the papers but the Critio strongly commented against the jury's decision, but I for one according to the indictment thought he would get' off as they must have felt sure of hav- ing him for murder that they never ins eluded manslaughter in the indictment.

From the Mission Field. Holmesville, Oct. llth 1898. To the editor of the Gorrie Vide'tte : It will be remembered by a nun;s ber of your readers that some four or five yours ago, while we were in Gorrie, that aMiss Whitfield, who bad returned from Africa, gave an address in the town hall on her mission work under Bishop Taylor. In explaining the condition of African girls she told us that in order to get proper control of them so as to keep them in the mission schools, it was ne- cessary in many instances to pay a re- demption price of $60 a piece. At the meeting referred to it was proposed to raise enough to redeem one ot those. girls and a subscription was started. As many will know $60 was raised, and I doubt not some would like to know what became of it. This is the object of my letter. Miss Whitfield returned to Africa where her health failed. Subsequently she gave up the work, and so far as we could ascertain the redemption plan was discontinued. In the meantime 1 deposited the money in the P. 0. Sass ings Bank, where it remained till last May. While attending a convention in Tor- onto I saw and heard areturned African missionary, Rev. E. H. Richards, and finding that his work had largely to do with the children, I became quite inter- ested, and finally concluded to send the money to him. This I did with what had accumulated in interest, somewhere about $66, and received a few days ago a receipt„ inn_ thQ tccompanying letter, which' j L' ziiblish. J. GREENE. INHAMBANE, E. Africa, Aug. 22nd '98, Rev. J. GREENE, FULLARTON, ONT. Your very welcome letter of May Ilth has been in my bands more than a month but owing to moving and building and general fixing up, which cannot be done with any such speed as in America, I have not been able to attend to our mail till now there bas accumulated a lot that wearies me to think of it.. Still it does not weary—not even a missionary —to think of his friends, and any one is our friend indeed who sends us cash enough to keep us happy for half a year. Your gift will be directly as you have requested, and 1 will tell you how it will be done. One of our men is Tizore. He was soundly converted years ago, all alone in the forest no missionary within a long distance of him. He is the ablest man wo have, he assisted me all through the translation of the New Testament in Tonga, and now we are about to begin the same work in the Sheetswa dialect. When we have done the New Testament we desire to do the Old Testament. Tiz- ore is the ablest native for any kind of work which we have. Farangwana will take Tizore place on the Station at Ma- kodweni. Farangwana is also a very fair specimen of a Christian he is very indus- trious, bas the neatest and cleanest little body for a wife, and has three choice children. These two we shall put onto your gift and they will receive about $3, 00 per month. This is a little high- er than others but they are important men and worth it. The girls we have are four at present, but we shall soon have more, as soon as we are settled and can take them. If you will write me again I think I shall have pictures on band of these candi- dates, all of them and can send you some. I trust that you have become indenti- fied within: to this extent. You will keep up the interest and never ledve us again. It is so difficult to find people who real- ly wish to join in this glorious mission work. The names of your girls are Miss Tafula, Miss Senyarana, Miss Mwaell- ana, Miss Tsumbi. The first three are Tongas, and the last one Sheetswa. Their ages are 16, 6, 7, & 10 in the order of their names. They are all learning rapidly and Tafula and Mwaletelana can read in the Testament. The others are trying hard, they know their lettere and will soon read. Now I beseech you write us and keep track of these girls and preaohere, and I am sure it will as- sist you materially in knowing what is doing on the mission field. Pray for us, for our preachers, for our student girls over which you have so repent an inter - eat and Will try to do our best for you, for them, and for Him who is Master of us all. With kindest regards. Yours faithfully E. H. RICHARDS. YOU SHOULD KNOW What Hood's Sarsaparilla has power to do for those who have impure and impoverished blood.

Distressing Predicament of a Duron Widow. roronto, Oct, 19.—A sad mistake which involves a government depart- ment, and four Ontario families, was brought to the notice of the Witness correspondent yesterday by some of those concerned. Mrs. Duping, aGod- erioh widow, is pausing the Superinten- dent of Neglected and Dependent Chil- dren considerable stir. She states that five months ago when in indigent cir- cumstances she made over three of her children to the department, believing at the time, she says, that it was a tem- porary arrangement. The children were her youngest daughters: Flossie, aged six; Lily, nine; and Lottie, thirteen. They were all planed In good homes for adoption in different parts of the prov- ince, by Mr. Kelso, superintendent of the department, Her sons, who are now doing well in Manitoba, were not at tbat time in a position to aid her. filer eldest daughter is in service it Toronto. The sons are anxious to support their mother and sisters, and for the children to be given back to their mother. The government officials doubt if they can force the foster parents to restore her children. Mr. Kelso has promised to do all in his power. Mrs. Duning protests that she was not made acquainted with the extent of the powers of the papers which she signed, and on that point appears to rest her legal standing in the matter. • DYSPEPSIA GROANS for what Nature alone provides for this stomach curse.

TORONTO. Toronto, Oct. 21.—We had at the western cattle yards here this morning as many as 106 loads of fresh arrivals; at noon there ten more loads to arrive, and as in addition about forty. loads out of yesterday's receipts were in the yards, the accommodation was so deficient that a lot of the stuff oould not be un- loaded; besides this in several planes the yards were so thick in mud that it was impossible to move about, and trade was seriously interfered with in copses quence. Something ought to be done with the market—either in the direction of removal or improvement—at once, before serious and probably permanent injury is done to our live stook trade, The' receipts to -day inoiuded 2,300 hogs, 1,000 sheep and lambs, a couple of dozen cows, and a few calves. Shipping cattle was dull; the lower reports of trade in the Old Country, published in these columns, affects busi- ness here, and the demand continues easy, while prices are weak at from 4 to 4ic per pound. There were some loads of export stuff left over. Butcher cattle was scarce, as the sup- ply of cattle today, though large, was made up of stockers, feeders for the distilleries, and shipping cattle; the re- sult being that anything like first-class cattle here found a ready sale at from 31c up to 40 per pound; the supply of this grade was small, and more of it would have found an easy sale. Good oattle sold around 3tc.; and medium and common at 3'�c. down to 3o. per pound. , Bulls for shipment were selling from 3 to 31c per pound. Milk cows are very scarce, and are wanted; quotations ranged to -day from $30 to $60 each. Stockers fetoh from 3 to 81c per pound. For prime stookers a shade mere can be accounted on, but ordinary stuff is easy. Calves are quiet and unchanged at from $2.50 to $6 each; and if very choice one to two dollars more may be ob- tained. Shipping sheep to -day sold at from 3c to 310 per pound, and were a slow sale even at those low figures. Lambs sold at 4c per pound; but if of superior quality an extra ten cents per cwt. was paid. Bucks are worth 210 per pound, Both lambs and sheep have been lately in very large supply here, and in consequence prices are low and week. Far too many light hogs are coming in; to fetch the best pride hogs must range from 160 to 220 lbs. a little less or more settles the price adversely for the sellers. The best price being paid now for choice hogs (off cars) is 4ic per Ib; with no more than"4o for light hogs. Stores will not sell. Following was the range of prides paid:— Cattle. Shipping, per cwt..... $ 4 OO to $ 425 Butchers' choice, do... 3 50 to 4 00 Butchers' medium to good. 3 12 to 3 25 Butchers' inferior 2 80 to 3 10 Sheep and lambs.
