Pkehistoiuc—The opinion is. en
tertained now by many men of sei*
ence that the art of making artificial
stone, for structural purposes is pre-*
historic, and-that the pyramids were,
in fact, built of artificial blocks
manufactured from the surrounding
plain. One would judge by the'
large orders W. H. Cooper, of Clin
ton, is receiving for artificial stone of
his manufacture that he had soured
the prehistoric secret. However
this may be, whether Cooper makes
his artificial stone on the pre or post-
historic basis its durability will attest
to coming generations its intrinsic
worth.
Twas Ever Thus,—The Wing*,
ham ^Vidette publishes a tabulated
statement showing that hotel pro*,
pertysin, that town has, according to
the. assessment roll, decreased in val
ue from $22,200 in 1884 to $17,600.
This ia one result of the Weott .Act.
’We. may. look for some appeals at.
the Clinton Court of Kevision from
thb same cause, We’are told that
one hotel property here which has '
previously rented for $4S0,00, .has
now been let for $150,00. 'Twrs

After Many Months.—Last fall
a correspondent noted in these col
umns the departure’of Mr. Jas.‘;G.
Henderson of the 6th con. Goderich
township for Michigan, with the
purpose of engaging in lumbering oA
any thing else, that suited him better.
. HeI got jq,AlpeJia.Ri).d from thM’e.no-
fur.t11er .trace of him could biyfound.
Aft.er several months of anxious
waiting by his friends without heir-
•ing from hitn his brother-in-law,
George Montgomery, was despatched
to-Michigan to find out what had
become of.Heuderson, Beyond find
ing that his extra suit of clothe**,val
ice etc, were at a saloon or hotel at
which he had stayed and that lie had
gone “to'see a jfriend,” no trace*of
him could be- gleaned?‘ This hotel
did not bear a very good .character,
, -as persons who had stayed at it had
been found drowned off tho (look in
front of it. It was at once sui’inis*'
ed that Henderson had met with
foul play, as there are always about
such places in lumbering centres
sharpers "who 'will “spot” a 'stranger
and relieve him “ of what spare-cash
he happens to have, even if they
have to resort to murder to accomp •
iish their'object, and Henderson had
a little money. The fact of Hender
son leaving liis working clothes "bet
hind him at the hotel showed, that
he had not gone to the lumber woods
nor was elsewhere employed, Weeks
and months rolled bv arid yet no tid**
itigs from “Jamie”, There was
therefore nothing for his distracted
parents and anxious frienlls to fall
hack upon other than the assumption
that be had been foully dealt with
or had met with an accident. Such
surmises have unfortunately proved
too true, Mis friends here were in
formed last week that the body of
Jas, Henderson had been found,
identified and buried at Alpena,
Michigan. We are not informed if
any stops will bo taken to inquire
into the cause of his death.’ He,
was « kind hearted, honest young
man was “Jamie” and with, his many
pierids wo deplore his untimely end.
