CHANGING THE 'VOTERS' LIST,—Judge
—Vim has -given instructior$-that no•rnunie
cipal voters' -lists are to be : printed this
year in the same form they have been
printed for some time past, but are to be
made more like those. for the Dominion.
The reason for this change is that the
Judges have had considerable trouble
heretofore in making a revision of the.
lists, and it is. thought that by this change,
the trouble can be lessened. -

her 28th year, and she is' as lively and ac-
tive as a good many beasts considerably
younger. She has ,raised 23 colts, and
only ceased productiveness - two years'
since ; it is rare to find 'a beast in :active
service as long as this, and shows that it
has had good usage during its term of use-
fulness, and 'is entitled to a monument
when it ceases to exist.. •
