In it ho h'ts Ivan will omit next woek'e issue of THE l 0 the world in permanent form his Poesi and allow our staff a holiday I best thoughts, his meet touehinx week. Job work will bo attended to titles, hie most stirring anecdotoe and as usual. incidents, his most telling aeries. As a story his he has never been equalled. But whether he narrates a story of mirth or of sorrow, it is al- ways to illuetrato groat and living trutbs. Stranger stories aro harts told than romance over dreamed of, every ono of them drawn from real life by a master band. In every °hinter ho weaves in anecdote after sneodote, incident atter incident, story after eters-, and underneath them all lie "Living Truths," that stand out as beacon lights. He plays upon the reader's feelings its with an eu- nhanter's wand, at one time filling his heart with gladness, at another blinding bis eyes with tears. At his bidding, hearts are melted, and stern, strong men, as well as sensitive wom• en, weep tears of compassion, are arnttead to indignation, or moved to uncontrollable laughter in Hplto of every effort to control their feeling. Now that the silver tongue is silent, "Platform Bohoes" is' the richest literary legacy of John B. Gough, Tho aronnt of his inimitable humor, the felinity of his descriptions, the adroitness and skill which enabled him to captivate and then capture hearts on both sides of the sea aro reproduc- ed upon these pages. Tho orator and dramatist, the philanthropist and the reformer, for ho was all these, are portrayed here in the freedom raid spontaneity of autobiography. The book is what its name indicated— real "Echoes" of the man whose death humanity mourns. Its illustrations are the best we have. ever aeon. It contains two hundred and twenty- seven wentyseven fine engravings by the best art- iste and engravers in the world. Mady of those illustrations are "too funny for anything" while others depict wretohednsss and woe. Sixteen of those engravings are full page ones, and aro magnificent epocitnens of art. Two hundred and nine are text illus- trations. One is from a life-size full length painting, showing Mr. Gough ar he appeared shortly after his rescue. The other is from a photograph taken just before his death.. All in all, it is ono of the finest ever produced by the American press. We advise our readers to buy Platform Echoes at the first opportunity. They can, in our opinion, much better afford to dispense with a dozen other books than not possess this. Once began it will not willingly be laid aside till the last page is finished. An agent is now canvassing Brussels for this excellent work. - •�+ Groceries very Cheap, Adam Good. special bargains in Ex- 11EROT hessian is on the sick list press Wagons, Croquet Sets, Hammocks, Base Balls, Fans, &c.

THE cricket match that was to have taken place on Thursday of this week between the home teem and Soaforth was not played owing to the latter club not showing up. They forfeited the game. It is much to be regretted that Seaforth club could not come here as we are sure our boys would rather have suffered an honorable defeat than be forosd to ac- cept scept a victory so different from their usualones. GARDEN PAR(Y.—On Tburaday of next week a garden party, under the auspices of the Ladies' Aid Society, will bo held on the grounds of B. Gerry. In addition to a good program of music, readings, &o., thele will be refreshment stands and a bazaar table.

As both ladies are popular a lively election is expected. The proceeds of the evening will bo devoted to liquidating the debt Lunar. red in the recent repairs to the cburcla. REV.

He has a very fluent style and his auditors were greatly pleased with his sermon, Rev. Fath. er Shea was also present and assisted in the service. Mrs. T. O'Noil, sis- ter to Rev. Father De Cantillon, pre- sided at the organ and led the sing. iug. llhis part of the exercises was dono in Mrs. O'Neil's well known style, which is not to be wondered at as she was organist of the Oatholio church at Arthur for five years. She always does °relit to the position. The ohuroh was well filled. Rev. loather De Canitllon left Brussels on Monday. DISTRICT MEETING AND S. S. CON• vENTroN.—Last Tuesday the Einem- hal District meeting of the Methodist church, Wingham District, was held in town, Rev. D. 0. McDowell, Dia trict Superintendent iu the chair. The morning session opened at 9 o'clock and was devoted to the fines. oral affairs of the district, arranging for the Missionary and Educational anniversaries and considering the ap• pointment of the Central Board to each circuit in connection with the Superannuated Minister's Fund. All the circuits were represented except Salem. Revds. Messrs. Paul, Cook and Watt were not in attendance. The Sabbath School0onvention open- ed at 2 o'clock. The following was the program :—Address by . Rev. D. 0. McDowell, of Wingham; address, "The legitimate province of the Sab- bath Sohool," by Rev. N. S. Bur- wash, of Belgrave 3 address, "The re- lation and duties of the church to the Sabbath School," by Rev. W. Baugh, of Ripley; address, "How may we secure a deeper interest in our Sab• bath School,': by Rev. A. Potter, of Teeswater. Very interesting discus• sloes followed each subject and the afternoon session was a very enjoy able one. At 7:30 ' the Convention resumed, After devotional exercises the Ohairman gave an opening ad- dress. He was followed by Rev. J. McAllister, of Kincardine, who read an excellent paper (which we hope to publish) on "The past, present and future of Senility School work." "The Sabbath School in relation to the temperance reform" was taken up by Rev. F. E. Nugent, of Lucknow, in a practical spirited style. Rev. S. Sellery, B. D., of Borvla, spoke on the topic 'The Sabbath School and its relation to the missionary work of the church." This session, although a little hurried, as a number of the ministers wished to take the late train, was a good one and will do good. If these died of meetings were held of. toner. a more lively interest would be taken in Sunday School, tomper$nce, and missionary work. Before the District meeting was brought to a close a very hearty vote of thanks was passed to the friends who so kindly entertained the Visiting brethren, iug by :t,uoat Aress of paint.
