The newly -appointed Town careta- ker did not begin his labors March 1st, as per agreement, on account of his sickness, A. McLaughlin continues until he gets well. The Ament sawmill commenced work this week. Even in the face of little sleighing there is about as large a stock of logs in the yards this year as there was last season. Skating has been enjoyed by the young people of the town during the past week, The moonlight adds much to the pleasure. Skating is a good healthy exercise if indulged in mod- erately. The cottage of R. J. Williamson, corner of John and Church streets, has been sold to Thos. Ennis, of Brus- sels, for $600. Mr. Williamson in- tends removing to the West this month, hence the sale. The concert given by the A. P. Y. A. of 'St. John's Church, Brussels, last week, was a decided success, finan- cially ; proceeds, over $100. Messrs.

The sermons were much appreciated ; large congregations were present at both services, especially in the even- ing.

On Thursday, 8th inst., Postmaster Farrow enters his 74th year. The Do- minion Parliament opens this year on that date, and this will no doubt re- mind hirer of days past and gone, and bring old scenes afresh before him. He will no doubt think of the changes time has wrought in the House as well as in the country, since he was elected in 1872, to represent what was then North Huron. When the House meets on Thursday there will be very few present who were members in 1873, perhaps not more than two, Hon. Jno. Haggart and Hon. Jno. Costigan, if memory serves us correctly. Mr. Farrow represented North (afterwards East) Huron continuously from 1872 to 1887, passing through five general elections ; he was victorious in four, and went down in the fifth. by 61 votes, being defeated by Dr. P. Mac- donald. Was it not a rather strange coincidence, that his successor ran the same number of elections, won four and went down to dire defeat in the fifth. If the indemnity had been then $2,500, as at present, the fifteen years should have made our esteemed citizen quite comfortable financially, instead of otherwise, after fifteen years' ser- vice of the best of his life. However, we are pleased to note that he is still vigorous, and bas considerable energy left yet, notwithstanding he has pass- ed the three score and ten mark. May he be spared many years yet to act as Brussels' faithful postmaster. i' Whitechurch. Mr. Simpson, the store -keeper at Fordyce, has failed in business.

Mrs. Tumoth, of the village, is pro- posing to take a trip to the Nest dur- ing the coming summer.

Lowry. Gaines and music were the amuse- ments provided. A splendid time was spent by all. Parties are the order of the day. We had two in this vicinity last Tues- day night. The cold weather must have have bad something to do with it, for, to use the words of the poet, there was "No sleep till morn where youth and pleasure meet, to chase the glowing hours with flying feet." Some of our young ladies undertook to give names to the streets of onr vil- lage, Here are the results of their efforts: --The one running East and West will henceforth be called Main street; that yenning North and South, Whitney street ; while the walk up to our sehool will enjoy the designation, The Lovers' Walk Reduced A Hard Swelling.
