In the fall is head struck against a piece of ice which was lying on the street, causing e dangerous fracture of the skull. • The man was immediately placed under medical tremanent, and is now recovering, 'although still in a criti- cal condition. Since the accident, we understand that several splinters of bone have been taken out of the wound in his head. • .• • DESTRUCTIVE!: FIRE. -On the morning • of Sunday, the llth inst., at about half Vast two Vclock, A.M., a fire broke out in a stable heloPering to Mr. Louie 'GIrieve, of Logan, situated in the north part of the village, and occupied ,by Messrs. Huston, °When discovered. the fire was issuing through the gable _near the roof on the south side of the build- ing, and the - stable being within sone twelyo feet of the dwelling house; the fire broke through the windows of the upper story before the inmates could use any means of prevention, and ono of the Messrs. Huston being absent, • the care of the 'family. devolved upon the other .; thus there was no possibility of using any effort until the fire 'was past the power of control, and sa, far as we learn, nothing Was removed from the upper flat of the license excepting Mr. Jas. Hus- ton's trunk, which he rescued at the Un- minent peril of his life after the clothing in his room was on fire. As to the origin 9f the fire no correct theory can be adduced. A barrel containing ashes, we learn,. Was in the back part of the buildino, but it is said that no ashes had been put therein which did not remaiu mn the snow during the whole or the previ MIS day. Another 'circumstance whic would seem to. show that the fire mus. have occurred from sontletther cause, i that the wind‘blete from the southeeast while the fire broke out in the south side of the upper -part of the building, and the ashes were situated in the north tide, so that if the lire originated from them at all, the fire. actually faced the current of the wind. It is therefore al- leged that the stable being beside the street and no lock on the door, that some of those die' eputable creatures who take shelter where they can find it, may have taken refuge in the building, and while there made use of matches. Mr. Huston's loss is considerable, and his -furniture having been removed from the premises in Listowel in which it was in- sered, it is :unknown whether he can re- cover his meurance on it We have not ear whether Grieve heel any insurance on the house, which, with the stable, would beworthabout $500. • . .

Ing, singing, playing, etc. About 10 o'clock, Mr. Andrew Fisher„ arrived with his bride, having driven up from Galt, to spend the evening with his brother Joe and the rest of his • old friends.

Their object being to organ- • ize a lodge here. We are sorry to say they were not successful, but hope at some time not efar distant they will make another aTtack, and be •crowned. with success. • Liquor venders are mak- money very fast here. We have only three hotels, all of a very fair size, and doing a business to • the full extent of their capacities. . One of these. hotels, which does not seem to be clohlg a larger business than the other two, considers times a little flat if they do not take $100 per day over the bar. The bar business generally runs from $125 to $200 per day, so that the reader can form an idea cif. the quantity of liquor de-- molished b,ere daily. Your correspond- -ent has not been in a place in Western Ontario that could beat this for drinking whiskey. No wonder our Leechville friends did not succeed. • FORTUNE TELLING. --:-Madanee Wilson, of Owen Sound, has been staying at Allan's Hotel for the last three Weeks.
