FRIDAY, DEC. 5, 1890.
IT is expeoted that the Manitoba Legis-
lature will meet during the first week in
February.
Tun nomination of candidates for the
House of Commons for the vaoanoy in
South Viotoria takes place on the llth
inst., and the election on the 18th.
Imam:zorox, a town in Essex County,
has voted their newspaper—The Post -
0100 to have the proprietors boom the
place iu a Christmas edition to be print-
ed. Such generosity is about as rarely
met with as the proverbial "hen's teeth."
We have no doubt, however, but Leam-
ington will be greatly benefitted by the
expenditure of this amount.
SOME few weeks ago samples of the
Canadian grown English barley were
sent to the Old Country to the Brewers'
Exhibition. The report of the jurors
who specially examined the samples has
been forwarded to Ottawa. The jurors
consider that there is a good market
there for the higher class of samples,
whose quality they praise. They offer
many hints for the future improvement
of the average quality of the grain. As
the jurors are practical men, their ad-
vice is worth heeding and their finding
will be read with interest by the farming
community.
Tun Koch consumption cure is attract-
ing the attention of the medical world
As many as 132 physicians arrived at
Berlin last Friday to study the wonder-
ful discovery. Upwards of 800 patients
are in the German oapitol undergoing
treatment. A despatch from Berlin
says
The Governor of Prussia will shortly
introduce a bill in the Diet providing for
the establishment of an institution of
baoteria, at which Prof. Koch may pur-
sue his studies. Connected with the in-
stitution will be five infirmaries contain-
ing 150 beds. After allotting to Prof.
Koch au adequate grant for his disoovery,
the Government will undertake the work
of producing the lymph.
Ton election trials are being pushed
along at a lively rate and in almost every
case the petitioner failed to prosecute and
the obarges were consequently dismissed.
The trial of the petition against the eleo-
tion of George Campbell, Equal Righter.
as M. P. P. for East Durham, took place
before Justices Maolennan and Falcon -
bridge at Bilbrook, and was a ohmage in
the program. After a day's work the
election was declared voided by consent
of both parties. A mistake had been
made in the printing of the list by which
00 names were omilied. Of these 10 had
put in tendered ballots. The judges al.
lowed these, and it was found fourteen
were marked for Collins and two for
Campbell. This changed the latter's
majority of ten into a minority of two.
The scrutiny was then proceeded with
but the two sides agreed to judgment
voiding the election.
Tonne appears to be a very strongly
expressed desire on the part of our towns-
folk for increased postal facilities. This
bas been hinted at by the post office an-
thoritiee yet no decided action has been
taken as far as ave have heard. What
we ask for is that a mail be carried on
the 11:41 a. m. train east, and a night
mail brought from the section where the
wise men came from by the 0:45 p. m.
express. The extra expense for this
much to be desired accommodation
would not be great ouieide of a mail
clerk, and, perhaps, a small increase for
carrying the .nail, and distributing it.
Listowel and Wingham, on account of
the converging railway linea, have a pos-
tal service much superior to oars and we
look to theete le authority to grant this
roved,. If necessary the eiguature of
every buoincse man in Brussels can he
got to a petition praying for an addition.

is simply the Legislative Committee of
the vedette tamporance societies and
workers. It is composed of members
and delegates. Any temperance or
church organizatione that contributes
annually one dollar or upwards to the
funds of the Alliance is considered a
branch, and has a right to send to the
Convention one delegate for every dollar
so oontributed. In addition to the dele-
gates so constituted, any temperance
worker approving of the objects of the
Alli euee may become a member by pay-

John McKnight, of the 3rd concession

laid in the spring 81 eggs ; after a lapse
of a short time it started laying again,
and up to Saturday last has laid 30 eggs.
This is a pretty good record for one duck.
A couple of Oreditonites name to Ex-

A shooting match took plane at Exeter
last week. Sides were chosen by Thos.
Oke and John Gillespie, and resulted in
favor of Oak by eleven birds. Daring
the match a sad aeoideut occurred in
which a young man named Graham, from
Cbesley, formerly of Owen Sound, got

Wm. Balkwell„ who lives one mile
south of Exeter on the London road -
claims he is the oldest resident in the
county who has lived continuously on the
same farm that be was born on. He is
52 years old, and has never moved oft

brain to surprise this wife by appeoniug
in fine clothes. Stopping on the road he
undressed and threw his old suit into a
creek, not knowing the had lost his new
one out of the wagon. Unable to find
ehsuit, bpobliged to wander

succeeded in surprising hie wife,"

The Perth County Gettnail passed a
resolution, "That whereas some of the
gaol officials examines by the Prison
Commission making enquiries into the
management of gaols had expressed the
opinion that their management should be
placed with the Government, instead of
with the County Council, this Connell
expresses its disapproval of the scheme,
as the county pays a large proportion of
the expenses of management and main.,
tennnoe, and should not be relieved of fie
power." It was also decided to maroon
ialize the ()Merin Government in refer -
ease to the tuattee, and the Cleik was iu-
etrcoted to oorreenond with other County

On Sunday evening while Alfred
Martin, son of Geo. Martin, Niesouri, and
cousin to Martin Brea., St. Marys, was
leaving tha house of a friend where he
had nailed during the evenine, he was
paseing behihd the buggy holding the
lines. The horse started suddenly and
pulled him up between the buggy box
and hind left wheel, his arm passing
between a gearing bar and the box. His
coat sleeve caught on a bolt underneath
the box and held his arm fast. The
horse continued at full speed for two
and a half miles, with Mr. Martin dragg-
ing -behind. By some turn -in the arm
Or extra jolt of the buggy, hie arm was
released and befell to the ground. Mr.
Martin through all this trying ordeal
never, once lost consciousness, and at
once started for the nearest house, whioh
proved to be Mrs. Aestthorp's. Word
Was at once forwarded to his father, who
hurried to his son's assistance and con-
veyed him home. Upon examination it
was found that his boots had been torn
from his feet, ae well as the greater
portion of his Women, and the flesh was
all torn to the bone on the side of both
feet and about half way to the knee ; the
ankle joints also having about a half inch
worn off them. The side of one of hie
lege is terribly bruised allthe way bump
ing of the wheel against it. ft is almost
miraculous that the young man escaped
with his life. The attending physician,
we believe, holds out hopes of hie ulti-
mate reoovery.
