John Gordon, of the fifth concession, London Township, has a museum of eigh- teen hundred buds, among which are some very rare specimens. Twenty-eight seizures have been made on the New Brunswick and Maine border by 8t. John detectives. They say that smuggling operations are very extensive. Canon Farrar, of Westminster, says: --- "I claim the fullest right to speak with the authority of . nowledge," that "neither hell nor damnation ought to stand any longer in our English Bibles. Pero Away. --We regret to notice i that a former Clintonitn, and one who has property here now, Mr. Thomas Rich. died at his home in the town of Water- loo, on Thursday, 3rd inst., in the 78th year of his age. A special meeting of the i -t.

A member of the Quebec Legislature has received $ letter from a constituent requesting the aasutanoe of the Govern- ment on his numerous family. The ap- plicant states that he has twenty'child- ren, six couples of whoin are twins.

Nearly all the colored people in the neighborhood of Pleasant Gap, Va., are joining a newly -organized league, the constitution of which forbids its mem- bers from hiring themselves as laborers to white farmers. The object of the organization is to force all the land -own- ers to work their lands on shares with the colored people. The wife of a late resident of London West, named Goldie, who with her fami- ly removed to Syracuse, N. Y., fell into a trance a few days ago and remained therein for forty-eight hours. Being supposed dead, all preparations were made for the funeral, when she gave signs of life. Hanlan, writing front the steamer at Queenstown to the Sportsman, says: "In a moment of irritation wrnte hard things about my old friend David Ward. I am very sorry I did so, and earnestly desire that Ward may be the first whom I shall shake by the hand on my arrival I now see that I have been misled by false re - posts concerning him. About three weeks ago a young man named Enoch Shantz, aged nineteen, suddenly disappeared while working at the sash and door mill of Truax & Cu., (fWalkerton It was supposed he had run (away, but Monday afternoon his body was found in the yard of the mill under a pile of slabs. He was fireman at the mill, and seems to have gone to the slab pile for wood when it fell on him. A New Jersey sportsman had been shooting and had d killed several birds. He sent his deg to fetch them. As he approached with one of the birds his master took a few steps forward, and catching his foot in a grapevine, fell for- ward upon his gun, which was diacharg- .ed, the entire onntents lodged in the dog. The animal continued to advance, dropped the bird at his master's feet, licked his hand, and looking up into his face affectionately, dropped dead. The mcGillivray Suicide. London. Feb. 21st. -Frank Neil, a thriving farmer on the 10th concession of McGillivray, about five months ago married a daughter of Mr. Moses Maw - son. They lived on the same farm as Mr. Neil, Sr., but in a separate house. The young couple got on very well, and apparently lived happily together, going to church regularly every Sunday, and likewise to Sabbath school, of which young Mr. Neil, only twenty-three years of are, was librarian. They were both members in good standing of the Metho- dist Church at Salem. A short time ..go it was noticed by some of the neigh- entice by fetter (returning a paper does boon that young Neil looked depressed not answer the law) when a subscriber bud dejected, and was apparently brood- does not take his paper out df the office, Ing over something of a disagreeable td.- ture. It has since turned out that he and state the reasons for lite not being had some slight misunderstanding with his father about money matters, yet there was nothing open or violent in their relations, only the young man fell into a fit of melancholy. A week ago last Friday his wife said she would go across to his father's, a few rods away, for some yeast. He told her then to bring his father back with her. After the woman left the house Frank sat down at the table and wrote the follow- ing in a pass -book which he had been using as It diary :-"I now take my pen in hand to let you know I have killed myself, and I leave you all that is in the house." There was no signature to the document, and after the word "you" there wus a blank, which it is supposed the misguided young man intended to fill up with his wife's name, but through nervousness or emotion he failed to ac- complish it. In another part of the pass -book he refers to the unpleasant rela- tions between himself and hia father,who, he seems to think, had been harsh with him. After writing he rose up and took a razor from the top of the bureau, and deliberately cut a fearful gash across his throat. He evidently did not succeed in nutting either the windpipe or jugular vein at the first stroke, and gashed him- self again end again till he had cut his head nearly half off Just as he fell down in a pool of his own blood his father and wife entered the door and gazed on the horrible scene, from which the shrieking wife fled, holding her apron over her eyes in order to shut out the tumble vision of her dying husband, who with distorted and blood -dabbled features lay on the floor gasping his last breath. It is now rumoured among the neighbors that there is some myster7 about the affair. The deceased kept, it appears, another pass -book in which he usually kept his accounts This book ls reported missing. The financial diffi- culty between Frank and his father is said to have amounted to an item of on- ly N0. There are many in the neigh- borhood who are of opinion there should have been an inquest held. Deceased was a tall, slender youth of fully six feet two in height, was very temperate in his habits, and bore • good character. amen sable a the Weis. - Daewoo, rob. 91.-A correspondent seat out to investigate the e$eota of the hard winter on the cattle in the ,Treat gracing regions, telegraphs frotn K8118as City that uweng to lite vast espause of the beefire in which the herds ruani 11 is impossible to roll/ibis uses.

Colorado, from north-eastern New Mexi- co and south-western Kansas, indicates great probable louses, while the gravest fears are entertained that the thickly populated pasture lands of Montana, Idaho, and Oregon may be strewn with cactuses by the time the spring opens. William Parton, a member of the Ne- braska Legislature from Omaha, reports that he will lure from live to seven thousand of his fifteen thousand herd on the North Platte, entailing a loss d from $100,000 to 11125,000. J. N. 51...eiluum, another member, anticipates a loss of 311 per cent. in the Creighton herds of 30,000 head. Cattle men ne longer try to conceal the fact that at best the season of 1881 will be diaastroas. Cows will be so wakened by exposure and starvation that they will be barren for a year, if not longer. The estimated loss on the various ranges runs all the way from ten to seventy-five per cent. 6.artstip d.•4 s.rtrlesc. This is a year before marriage. He is making her a call. He is at the front door ringing for her. There are his boots, newly blacked, collar spotless, his form ditto outside, his gloves drawn un for the first time, his hair newly parted and oiled, his face newly shaved; his heart palpitates for her; he fears she may be out, or that some other fellow may be there with her. The door opens. She is there and alone. He is happy. This is a year after marriage. He is ringing at the door. His face is un- shaved, his Dollar is much worn, his boots unblacked, hair unbrushed. He rings again in exactly ten seconds. He gives the bell it sharp petulant pull. He is thinking of her. He is grumbling that she doesn't answer sooner. He has not all day been thinking of her. He has gone further, maybe. and fared worse. Now she opens it. He pushes past and remarks, "Takes you forever to answer that bell." His unbrushed shoes sound sullen as he ascends the stairs. She follows meekly after. He thrashes into the room and around. the hoose, and sings out, "Isn't .!inner ,ready yet?" She bids him be patient for a moment. But he won't. Because dinner isn't ready within one minute after he gets home. Because this is one year after marriage. Because the bloom is off the rye, the down rubbed from the peach, and various other considerations. Be- cause it's the way of the world, of men, of matrimony. 0, Tempora! 0, Moses! O.

A postmaster is required to give Mr. Hartmann sends to the Paris Iso- tivinsigsaat a deplorable acoount of the famine in Russia. In the villages, as he relates, people die of hunger every day, and men rob and pillage for the sole ob- ject of being immured in prison, where at least they are fed at the expense of the State.

There can be no legal discontinuance until the payment is made. 3. Any person who takes a paper from the post -office, whether directed to his name or another, or whether he has sub- scribed or not, is responsible for the pay. 4.
