ON Saturday President Eerie= is- sued a proclamation imposing a toll of twenty omits a ton on Canadian vessels using the Sault Canal, This ie in con- sequence of our dlscrimination against American ports by the rebate system. The President's action is under authority recently given him by Congress at his own request. REEVE BECK, of Colborne township, hat visited the various looalitles in the Co. of Huron advooating the claims of Patrick Kelly, of Blyth, for a seat in the Senate, so it is said. H. W. C. Meyer, of Wingham, is also said to be an aspir- ant. If this costly and nnneoessary chamber is to be perpetuated we imagine T. Farrow ex.21. P., of Brussels, has a stronger claim and would fill the position more oapabably than either of the above mentioned gentlemen. 'But before any person is appointed from this northern country we would like somebody to rise and explain what good the Senate is to the Dominion of Canada ? Coouadiau Ne3vr . Natural gas has been struck at Cale- donia, Ont. A Dundee man has a thriving thick possessed of four legs. A boy named Pitt was drowned at Wardsville on Monday while bathing. The catch of whitefish on lake Winos - peg this season is larger than ever be- fore. There are now over 80,000 people at summer resorts among the Thousand Is. lands. The Great Western flour and oatmeal mill in Woodstock, Ont., was burned Saturday night. C. Coughlin, of Montreal, shipped ou Saturday a consignment of live hogs for the old country. John Roberts, the Kingston druggist who died recently, leaves an estate of over half a million. The Royal Templars of Temperance have raised their insurance to $8,000, an increase of $1,000. The wheat crop will average 20 bushels to the acre all over Manitoba, according to estimates of good judges. Lacan, Middlesex county, boasts of a brother and two sisters whose ages united amount to 270 years. The weather throoghont Manitoba and the Northwest oontinues most favorable, and hag ee'ing is progressing rapidly. A big percentage of the wheat crop is now out. George Daniels, formerly of Hamilton, received what will likely prove fatal in- juries by being run over by afi engine at Chicago. By Sir John Thompson's new Crimin- al Code, the buyer of a lottery ticket makes himself liable to a fine of $50 for each offence. L. L, Sovereign, of Waterford, thresh- ed over 600 bushels of Early Red Claw- son wheat from 12 sores, or 50 bushels to the sore. The Canadian Government has prohi• bited the importation of rags from Ger- many and Belgium as a further pre• oantion against cholera. A team belonging to Chris. Helmuth, of East Zona, dropped dead the other day, while attached to a binder. They were overcome by heat. Fred. Coveney was killed on the Grand Trunk traoli at Sobaw station, near Guelph, early Saturday morning. He was walking on the track in an intoxioated condition. The supreme cashier of the Order of the Iron Hall has petitioned for the ap- pointment of a receiver. It is claimed that there is a shortage of $200,000 in the funds of the order. James McKee, of Barrie, was fatally Burt by the mail train from Toronto at the crossing about a mile south of Allen- dale on Friday of last week. His horse was instantly killed, but Mr. McKee lingered until Barrie was reached. Henry Lunen, sobool teacher, was ar- rested in the Globe officio, Toronto, while calling for answers to an advertise- ment for teaohere to go to the Northwest ' on good salaries. After receiving ans. were Lunen would write to applicants re. questing remittance of $1, to cover the coat of registering their Ontario oertifi. sates in the Northwest, which is a ab. surdity. All tbe'immigration officers in Winni. peg are in receipt of telegrams daily from farmers asking for help during harvest and threshing. The supply does not nearly equal the demand, and but a small proportion of the requests are filled. Wages are good throughout the oountry, $45 a month and board being offered, but even with this inducement men are not to be found. Edwin 0. Bartley, of Harrington, has favored the Stratford Herald with a sample of raspberry known as Shafer's Colossal, a cultivated cross between the common red and black varieties. The vine is exceedingly thrifty and has been known to attain the height of 25 feet, while the fruit is folly twice the size of the ordinary raspberry. It is also a heavy oropper and should be popular with the onitivator of small fruits. I ' x]xoitemeut is high in 0.0. F. eirolee in Galt over the mysterious dieappearaneo of $211.95 of the money belonging, to the demonstration committee. T night of the dAmonetration the moneyfcollected during the da', some $1,200, was counted by flue of the committee and put in a vanes and looked in the shoe store of Charles Boos. Upon opening it in the morning the valise was found open and 6212 short. There were no windows or doors broken open and the mystery is how did the money get out 7 It is said that only three know the combination of the safe. A. deleotive will be hired to ferret out the Dass. The Y, M. C. A., Seaforth, are having rooms fitted up in Sarong's new block. Messrs. Blow and Clegg have the On. tract for the new Foragers' Hall, Gerrie. Whitely cC Todd, will disolve pert- nersbipp as proprietors of the Clinton News -Record.. Hon. J. O. Patterson has donated 815 towards the funds of the Huron Central Fair, Clinton, Rev. john Rose, of Cape Breton, has aooepted the Dell from Ashfield Prseby- terian eongregation. The Roman Catholics of Winnipeg hove decided to carry on their separate Schools by private subscription. Wm. Mahood and Milton Carter, Fordwioh pupils, won the gold and silver medals, respectively, at the Harrieton High Sohool exam. W. H. Olegg'e bankrupt stoop of hard- ware and groceries, Gorrte, was purchas- ed by Thos. Rae, of Wroxeter. hard- ware 41i Dents on the $, groceries 68 oento 011 the $. Who ever heard of a oow being frigh- tened to death ? It occurred over ab Niagara Damp a few weeks ago. The Guelph Field Battery paraded on the wide common and fired a salvo of four guns. A hundred yards in front stood a oow contentedly chewing her ottd, totally oblivious of what was going on or how soon she was going to be a oberub. Bang! went the big guns with a roar, and down dropped the oow—dead. Doc• tors and vetenrnary surgeons marvelled, and Dr. Hilliary, brigade surgeon, had to make an otitoial report of Lieut..Col. Otter, D. A. G„ in command of the camp, to the effect that the cow's sudden death was undoubtedly due to a nervous shook. As au example of fast running it may be mentioned for the first time that No. 13 on the 4811 inst., made the run from Windsor to St. Thomas, a dietanoe of 112 miles, in one hour and 58 minutes, including stops, Engineer Cooper at the throttle. This train slowed up for three railroad orossmgs, including a stop of five minutes at Fargo for water. Let us deduct, say two minutes for each oro0s• ing, a very fair average, in all eleven minutes, whioh leaves as a result a record of 112 miles in 107 minutes, a regular brain at that. When we figure the lost time in starting and stopping it will readily be seen that a speed of nearly 65 miles per hour was maintained during the entire dietanoe. Even Smith, brotber.in-law of Alex. MoDonald, of Cincinnati, for years oon. fidential man and bookkeeper for the Consolidated Tank Line Company and Standard oil Company in Cincinnati, who disappeared so mysteriously last April, has been looated by detectives in Belmore, Bruce county, Ont. McDonald has ordered that be be arrested and brought back to Cincinnati, but refuses to give the reason for such action. Ex- perts have examined Smith's accounts and pronounce them straight. Smith, when found, was living in luxurious style, though when he left so mysteriously he had only a few hundred dollars on his person. Friends of Smith and McDon- ald say he will be planed in a sanitarium, his mind having been affected by the strain resulting from his responsible position. Wm. Trotter, stove dealer, received in the way of trade, a second-hand stove, whioh is safe to say, is the oldest in this section of country. The stove was the property of Mrs. Wells, who resides on the McAlister farm, Flespeler road. It is a square box stove, with en old fashioned Dutch oven on top, and weighs nearly 700 lbs. Its sides are ornamented with the British coat of arms end the ends with Prussian eagles. It hears neither date nor maker's name. In conversation with Mrs. Wells our reporter learned that her mother was born at Sugar Loaf Hill, U. 0., in 1797, and was married to Jonathan Baker, at "Little York" (now Toronto) then a mere hamlet, in 1317, Mrs. Wells' parents purchased the stove and a "grandfather" clook from a man who had some years previously emigrated from Johnstown, Pennsylvania, paying therefor farm produce to the value of $155. The stove was at that time au old one and it is quite likely was made before the Revolutionary war. Mrs. Wells still retains the olook and would not part with it on any oonsideration.— Galt Reformer.

Maud S. is no longer queen of the trotting turf. The position whlob she has held so long has been wrested from her, and Nanoy Hanks reigns in Iter stead. Tuesday, Aug. 16th, at Washing. ton Park, Chicago, in the presence of 10,000 spectators, Budd Dobls drove his mare to beat her record, bat lowered the world's trotting reoord from 2,086 (the time of Maud S.) to 2.07I-. The traok was a trifle dusty in places, but as fast as is oould well be. The mare was in BXO011ent condition, and there was noth- ing to prevent her from doing her best. The official time for the mile, which was as honest a toile as WW1 ever trotted, is 814, 1.086, 1.86 , 2.07}. The last quarter was trotted in 306 seconds. At the end of her great exploit the mare did not appear disturbed hi the least degree. She had finished fresh and strong. Dob - le weighed 150 pounds and the sulky 62 pounds. Nanoy is a bay, six years old, 156 hands high. She was sired by Happy Medium mut of a Dictator mare. Next Mondayleveniog T.
