Many of uur readers will regret to learn that Mr. Samuel Pollock, who fill- ed the Mayor's chair in 1878, and who has been a resident of Goderich for about thirty years, is about to leave town. He has purchased some ten acres of land in the heart of the rising town of Bad Axe, the county seat of Huron County, Michigan, and will go into business there as a store keeper. Mr. Pollock is one of the most respected men in Goderich, and in him Bad Axe will get a first-class citizen. We are oertain that the feelings breathed in the following address will be re-echoed by every one acquainted with Mr. Pollock who reads this article: OODI RICH, December 28th, 1880. familiar face sof our much esteemed young friend Mr. Horace Mann, now of Chicago, in town during the week, while spending his holidays with his father, Mr. F. R. Mann, and friends. We regret to have to bid him good so soon; but our loss is his gain, as he finds more *cope for his trade in Chicago than in Godench, and his healthy ap- pearance is proof that city life, plenty of work and money making agrees with him, and as for friends, his Christian in- tegrity, sociable and agreeable manner, will secure him true friends wherever he goes. -(Com.

It related to the impor- tation of air Anider-Enfield rifles by the Association. Sir Richard Cartwright had impressed upon the Government the advisability of admitting these wea- pons free of duty, in accordance with the Act providing that rifles for the mili- tia shall not be subject to duty. These rifles were for the better practice of target shooting, but the Minister re- fused Sir Richard's request, as he held that there was no precedent for the re- mission. The Finance Minister is so anxious to swell his,customs r•ecipte that the Government cannot give the least enoouragement to our volunteers who would perfect themselves in target prac- tice. FEARFULLY Frosbitten.-A man named Lloyd, living on the 6th con. of Goderich Tp., who has been making himself notorious in connection with his treatment of his family, was badly frozen last week. On Christmas Eve he was arrested for kicking up a row at home, and lodged in jail. On Tuesday he was dismissed by the magistrate through some informality in the manner of the arrest or information, and took the train for Holmesville. He claims that he mis- took the direction from Holmesville, and started east instead of going west on his way home. He also states that he was sober, although some dispute him on that point. At any rate he was discovered as Wednesday at a creek by the wayside trying to thaw out his hands which had been terribly frozen, in the running streamdly bands were ale brae cent !roam s elbows He was seat home, an been ender mediae.' at- Mmdanee eine.
