Jamestown.
East Heron did nobly on the 3rd.
The first 25 ballots that carne out of
the box were marked for Dr. Chis-
holm. The D. R. 0. began to wonder
if the whole poll had gone over to the
Conservatives.
Mr. Geo. Johnston attended Dr.
McDonasd's meeting at Gorrie on
Wednesday evening of last week, and
was invited to the platform as a rep-
resentative of Dr. Chisholm. Dr. Mc-
Donald spoke an hour and three-quar-
ters, A. Hyslop an hour, and Mr.
Johnston was only allowed about fif-
teen minutes, and he certainly made
good use of. it.
A new poet has arisen and his pro-
duction of last week was rather a poor
affair. The poet himself is, we be-
lieve, a very estimable young roan,
and was not anxious to write as he
did, but yielded to earnest requests.
The "bird" he described was not
afraid to "crow," but was heard in
Brussels at the Nomination to such
good effect that instead of 43, the
majority there tumbled to 11, and the
same results foIIowed in other places.
No wonder the "former M. P. dreaded
he might be swamped" and the poet
may now take note that he was most
effectually swamped to the tune of
170. We hope he will celebrate the
event by a poem worthy of the vic-
tory. As to the prayermeeting, the
fact is ---that when Dr. Chisholm
found the hall was engaged for the
ni ht of hican-
celled
smee meeting, at once cait
celled it and did not, as the poet says
-find. them "kneeling in prayer."
Perhaps, my young friend, you didn't
intend to be so far out, and while
there is such a thing as poetic license,
please do try and get nearer to the
facts next time.

Thieves have been operating at New-
bridge. One night last week they en-
tered David Aldrich's cellar and took
all the fresh pork they could get their
hands on. The parties. are supposed
to have known the place fairly well
and perhaps have been on the pre-
mises before. Two other daces were
visited the satire night. Wo suppose
the parties were on the lookout for
something good in the farmers' cellars
and smoke -houses where they general-
ly keep their dried neat. They were
about to enter a milk -house owned by
John Patterson, close to the house.
Mr. Patterson was aroused by the dog.
He got up and was soon outside, when
the thieves fled, breaking a rail on the;
fence, got into a rig and drove off.
