John Robb, Peter McDonald and his daughter, Miss Maggie McDonald, and Wm Shedden have taken passage for the Old Country. Mr. D. A. Waddell, harneuntaker, who recently removed to Kingston, re- ports business good with him in the Limestone City. We are glad to learn of our old friend's welfare. I:WILDING.—We believe it is the in- tention of our esteemed townsman G. A. Deadman to erect a brick residence on his lot in the southern part of the village this summer. Teta SIGNAL will be sent post paid for the balance of 1881 for only 75c. Miss Pentland has begun the business of dressmaking at her residence. Mr. Wm.

In the United States a few of the church sittings are estimated is follows; Mdiat ethu.

There were three things which a woman should both be and not be at the sante time. First, she should be like the snail, always keeping within her own house: but she should not be like the snail which carries all, it has upon its back. Second, she should be like an echo and speak when she is spoken to; but she should not be like an echo, which always manages to have the last word. Thiel, she should be like the town clock and always keep time and regularity; but she should not be like the town clock, whish speaks so loud that all the town can hear it. Erac Rocca, the celelltrated but eccen- tiic preacher of Naples, once scared bin congregation in the most beneficial way. Ile preached a tremendous sermon on the inevitable consequences of a sinful life. His hearers were in a convulsion of excitement with the blazing picture of a sulphurous retribution before their im- aginations. All at once he stopped in the very midst of an eloquent appeal and cried out, "Now, all of you who sincere- ly repent of your sins, hold up your hands. ' Every hand in the assembly was up in an instant. The preacher looked epos the scene for one, awful moment, and then addressin the higher powers —"Holy Archangel Michael, thou adamantinewho with thine adaantine sword stand - est at the right of the judgment seat of Gal, hew m. off every hand which has been raised hypocritically. " In an in- stant nearly every hand dropped to its owner's side. new P. . store. HaRrsxs.--Mr. Henry Brickle, who recently bought out the harness business ,.f T. A. Hamlin ix a young man of energy and pluck, and is doing a splen- did trade. Fos Dagort.—Mr. Hugh S. Smylie, the well known shoetnaker. ham sold out his business to Mr. Wm. Seeley, for- merly of -Goderich, and'is now doubtless on his way to Dakota If the country suits him, Hugh intends taking up land near his brother. CARRIAGE MAKING.—Mr. H. W. Savage, formerly of Pointer's carriage works, is now in business on his own az- count in Brydges' old stand. He is an industrious young man. and rejoices in' 'the fact that he is kept busy in his line. Poarxaarza.—Mr. J. M. Roberta has been appointed postmaster in room of Mr. Robert Clendenning, who has gofte to Dakota. The post office will be re- moved to the building next to Mr. Robert's store, and will be attended to by our popular townsman, Mr. W. Mc- Arthur. Mr. Roberts has gone to con- siderable expense in fitting up the post office very neatly; in fact, when complet- ed, there will not be a snugger or more complete office in Huron.

The Detroit, Macbnac, and Iarg ette Rairoad Company ' R 1,.3 JO,000 ACRES Of tie Choicest FAR.MINO and TIMBERED LANDS in the Northern Peninsula of Michigan, flrstaned to be the best wheat -producing region in the world. These lands are situated in the �a of Chippewa. 'tacklnar, SSchoolcrsft and Marquette. and embrace many thousands ens les et the he agricultural lands in the State of Michigan. 4110111111 Nee. le the counties of Chippewa and Mackinac are tracts of what are known as the "lend er clearer Lands. 'recite lands offer many advantages over the prairie lands of the Wen, as the timber Lands adjoining Insure a supply of fuel at little cost. The soil being a rich clay loamof great depth. The timber remaining upon the land being generally sufficient for the settlers' use in building and fencing. These partially cleared lands are now offered at the low price of from 4 to $4.50 per acre, one-fourth (ash. and the remainder at purchaser.' option, at any time within nine years, with interest payable annually at seven per cent. Reads are being opened through thole lands, and no better opportunity has ever been offered to then of small means to secnre a good farm, and intending purchasers will be wise by availing themselves of this chance before prices advance, as the lands are being rapidly taken and settled upon. The Lands more immediately on the line of the Detroit, Mackinac. and Marquette Railroad from the Strain of Mackattac to Marquette are more heavily timbered. and are almost univers- ally good sgrk ultural lands. leaving splendid farms when the timber is removed. The iron and lumber Interests of the upper peninsula are of such magnitude as to call for all the charcoal and lumber that the timber and wood upon the lands will produce—this will enahle the settler to make good wages while clearing the land. Lumber Mills and Charcoal Kilns will be built at various points along the line. and Furn- aces are now being erected along the Ione of the road at Point Rt. The great demand and good prices for labor. both in winteranlf summer, make these lands particularly desire hie as homes for the poor man. The lands adjacent the Railroad are offered at prices from $5 upwards, aeording to location. valve of timber, etc. The lands are at your very door. and are being rapidly settled by Canadians.
