IMPORTANT Te ASSESSOBS.—Several as ese-
ment rolls in Simcoe County were overhauled
recently before Judge Ardagh, who made an
important declaration to which we direct the
special attention of Assessors and Municipal
Councils. He said "that such descriptions as
'part of the west half of lot 14 in the 2nd Con.,'
and such like, were perfectly useless." The
frontage of a broken piece of land, together
with its distance from one corner .of the lot
must be given, --otherwise the parties would.
be disfranchised, as tbo assessment would not
be according to law.

WITHOrT COUItcrL.—Exeter is without a
Council. The trouble about the counting of
the ballots,to which we alluded the week of the
election, has batched out other troubles and the
Councillors elect, finding that the election
could be upset, disclaimed any riga to the
seats at the Board. As a result we are un-
governed. If the taxes werenot to be paid next
fall, no one would care very much, but as it is
not customery for municipalities to run with-
out leaders, there will be another election, the
precise date of which we are not aware of. We
do not know wbether any opposition will be
offered to the four who were declared elected,
but from what can be gathered from the ru-
mors afloat, we judge that another contest will
take place. Mr. Hardy, Reeve, we might men-

Honer Tinevixo.—On Sunday morning
last, Mr. Wilcox, of Huron street, on going to
look at his bees, dis.covered that some persons
had been robbing the hives. Sozne of the bees
were destroyed and considerable honey was
gone. He immediately sent for Mr. John Gill,
who commenced a search for the thieves. From
footmarks left, he supposed them to be boys,
and ou going up Main street, he observed two
or three boys talking together in a other ex-
cited manner near Hawkshaw's stable. His
suspicions were aroused by this fact, and, de-
termined to find out who the thieves were. Ile
etaphyed a little MAC to effect his purpose.
Crossing the street he offered to shake hands
with the largest one. Innocently the boy held
out his hand when Mr. Gill grasped it, and, ad
he had expected, traces of honey were still on

were Eve of them selfsustainieg. He explain-
ed how the converts made through the Chin-
iquy movement, were provided for, end how
many workers they had in Japan, China, and
other foreign missions, and be had no doubt
but that there would be a liberal insp.'s° by the
Preebyterian body of part of their wealth to
help on this g.e it work. Rev. S'eeeright saLl
the last speaker had fnrgotteu to mention one
gr.at branch of the mission work, that was a
mission to the lumbermen in the Ottawa Val-
ley, there were about -10,000 men employed in
the lumber woods. It was no use going in
there to assail Popery,but simply to spread the
gospel of our blessed:Lola and Savioni, and cir-
culate among them good and wholesome liter-
ature. He said he had labored himself in a
very large lumber district. He showed. the
reason the Presbyterian Church had not made
be progress in Canada formerly the other
Dranahes of the Protestant Church had made.
A great many thought it was only for Scotch -
men, and the reason they thought so was was
that all the ministers had to be brought from
Sce.tland, but now the church was a Canada
Church, and they were now able to send noted
Canadians into the back settlement. Ha
thought there should he a rivalry amongst the
Protestant Church, and that rivalry should be
in the cause of Christ, for we all acknowl dge
the same good old Bible. The reverend gen.
gieman conducted a very elle apeachamging the
claims of the Missionary cause. The meeting
which was the first one held in the new Church
was closed by the RSV. Mr. MeNaughton pro-
