DUNGANNON,
From our own correspondent.
We presume that tieing to the
severity ot the weather and trail,: en the
roads being very heavy, and discourag-
ing Mr R. R. Sal!riw's dissolving view
entertainment announced for Friday
'22nd inst., did bet rake place. SO far
as we can learn, none were dime- pointed
on account of Mn Bellows not putting in
an appearaiice under the circurnesoces.

very cold and Money days, so much an
that the Royal Mail did tvit put in en
appearance for those two days ; conse-
quently outside events were unknown
In us, the principal topic being what has
become of our mail eerrier. However
on Monday morning he appeared in our
village on hie way to ()Aerie+. His ap-
pearance with the mail was pine a pleas-
ing event, as all concerned were anxious
to hear of and know what was transpir-
ing in other parts of the country.
On lest Sabbath the pulpit of Erskine
church here was occupied by Rev. W. F.
Cam bell, the pastor Rev D. G. Came-
ron being away front home. The rev
trentleman took fur him text the 13th
chapter of Corinthians sad 12.11 verse,
from which lie expatiated laroe'y on the
duly of Christiana, of course true
Christians, to love all MOO, even their
enemies, as exemplified by the Great
Exemplar and head of the church.
We presume we are correct in stating
that Saturday night last was the coldest,
ma the thermometer registered 21 de-
gree. below zero.

lis, of Ashfield. has, with her tin
