ed the audience, George Fox demon-,
strafed once more that he is Canada's
first violinist. Miss Solway increased
her popularity among the music lov.
ing citizens of Clinton, and the ser-
aoces of Mrs. MeHardy-Sznith, the

Mr, John Ramsford of Clinton,

St. Paul's church in that town, of
whichhe had been rector thirty eight
years ago. ' •
LordBishop Carmichael in his reply
said they could easily, understand how
difficult it was for him to acknow-
ledge the outburst of good 'will and,
devotion lie had experienced ever since,
by God's grace, he was elected. The
aerially solemn service of the morning
had naturally chastened the mind and
they could easily uriderstancl it was
not as easy for hitu to speak as oth-
erwise it would have been. It had
pleascclf'dt elll' to an office,
which He knew he had never sought,
but which he could say he thanked
Him for it for no other reason than
that it enabled hint to stand side by
side with the dearest friend he ever
had In the ministry, the dear 'Arch-
bishop, 'lie felt almost as if the hand
of God wag visible in thatnow the
Archbishop is aged, they were to re-
new the same relationship as they
held for ten years when they were
young and **mild be bound by the
same bonds. Not the shadow of a
cloud of a. differmice had ever been be-
tween them. Well teight His Grace
say the secret of ruling is love, for
he has fitted bei and lived it. He
prayed, and believed that all there
would pray, that God wottld be his
guide in his new duties. Referring to

that they bore him itt remembering
him after thirty eight years, and urg-

HORSE STEALING. a
A citizen of the great republic nam-
ed Charles Sullivan, aged about for.
ty, a crook by inclination and prac-
tice, was lodged in the county gaol
on. Friday by Chief Wheatley, •
. Sullivan; whose home, he • cleitned,
was in New York state but who had
been working at, Sault Ste, Marie for
several months, arrived at Goderieh
by boat bn 'Wednesday. Next day he
hired a rig from Hamilton's livery
to drive to Clinton and on reaching
here endeavored to sell the Outfit for
$150 to Mr, Harvey Davis, who
wouldn't consider the peopositiort at
then went to. Johnsott & Bell
and filyally cutting the ptite to fifty
dollars they said they would take it
and gave hurt a small sum to bind the
bargaiti.
Their suspicions were, however,
aroused and calling Op the liveryman
at Goderich they described the horse
which Hamilton idefitified as his.
Chief Wheatley,who had been keepittg
alt eye on Sullivan's movements, tow
stepped in and meaning him in his
mote at the Clarendon lodged him in
the lockup.
Next ntorniug Sullivan was taken
before Mayor .Tackson, who, after
heating the evidence which we have
here otttliited, committed Ititti to
stand hie trial at a higher court.
Other than blaming whiskey as ceas-
ing hirn to commit the deed, lte had
nothing to say, unless spoken to,
front the time of his arrest until turn-
ed over to the gaoler.
It is supposed that Sullivan took
this means of raising money to re-
turn to the States. When taken into
ettstody he had only fifty cents, half
, of what be got from Solinsott & flell

picture of a group of Aen members of
