On Now Year's night,' 1885, Sp0011115s grist mill wa0 destroyed by tho fiamos. On a beautiful night last summer Camp- bell's 011e000 factory met a similar fate ; and on Thursday night last the splendid mill erected on the si.o of the former one, together with its contents, was to. tally destroyed by tiro. The fire origin- ated in precisely the senna place as in the other one and was first seen by W. Leigh, who forthwith raisod the alarm. All ef- forts to extinguish the flames proved fu- tile, and at 12:80 a.m.-about two hours from tilt) time the fire started -the build- ing fell. Fortunately for the rest of the villago, the wind was blowing in 8 wester- ly direction, which, for a time, endanger- ed the buildings of John Hazlewood, eomo thirty rods distant. A large quantity of wood was in the yard at the time, about thirty cords of which was burnt. Tho common belief is that the building was fired by some malicious devil, and public indignation 013110 high. The loss to Mr. Sparling as well as to the village and around is very great as the mill was do- ing a largo business and giving snlondid satisfaction. It Was valued at 08,000 and insured for 36,000. Muth sympathy is felt for Mr. Sparling for the loss he has sustained. At the Annual Convention of aha Coun- ty of Perth Sabbath School Association, hold in the town of Diatom', on Febru" y Ot11 and 10th the following Memorial to the Provincial Government was unani- mously adopted, viz: "That the Sunday School Convention repro0anring the vari- ous Sunday Schools of the Association of the County of Porth, assembled in Listo- wel, February 9111 and 10111, desire to urge on the Provincial ncial Government that it is in the interest of all moral and roli- gious effort as well as of good Govern- ment generally. That tho Prohibition clauses of tho License Lowe, whioh pro- vides that 110 liquor shall ba sold during Saturday evening and on the Sabbath day, should bo obyed. And, as these provisions 000 matte in the Ontario Lioonse Act, the Provincial Government is alone rosponsible, acid it is speoially incumbent upon them to the that tba ofiioors put the law in farad.
