Mull SCHOOL B tr ILDING. —The , trus- tees of the Clinton High School have pur- chased a site for a new building at a cost of $1,950. It is contemplated to erect a new !school building on this site next slimmer. . , • Tile LICENSE Quesprox.—At ;he last reeding of the Clinton Council' it was decided to Separate the liquor and gro- cery businetn; and to limit the number of shop liceuCes to two. Shop licenses were placed 1 at $200, and hotel 'licenses at $125. FINE Hoesn—A few days ag°: Mr. It. McCullougn, of Goderich townsnip, was offered $800 by an American buyer, for a " Peacock" colt, three years eld this spring. The colt has taken several first prizes, and Was never beaten. It stands 16 hands and girths six feet three and a half inches.It is pronounced t te best colt in this Section. PROGRESSING-. — The London, Huron and Bruce is rapidly gaining t ado, in the way of freight, live stock, co dwood, grain, &c., being shipited in lar e quan- • tities from the stations along t.j he line. For the short time this road has been in existence, we believe it has done ts much business as eny, road in the Pro ince, in• comparison with its length. At Clinton station a second switch has bee laid to facilitate the moving of trains, nd also a large blacksmith shop has been erected for repairing and other necessar werk. We believe it is the intention of t e com- pany to erect a brick station ouse in the spring, .and use the present one for freight alone. 1 ' A SAD CASE. —On -Friday last, young man who gave the name of Muth le was arrested in Clinton on suspicion A hav- ing stolen a pair of boots from t e front of Mr. Taylor's shop. The boots were . found in Rein's stable, where the prison- er had. a moment before been seen, but 'as there was not sufficient evi- dence to coni iet him, the magistrate dis- missed the case, giving him 25 Minutes wherein to leave town. Mulligan has re- cently been employed as a navvy on the London, Huron and Bruce Railway, and looks about es dejected and forlo n as it is possible to become. He is an excel- lent penman; and was at one timoa clerk in the store of Mr. A. T. Stewatt, New York, who is the "Merchant Pri America, but becoming dissipate course, lost his situation, and co going downward till he reached Ii out condition, ice" of , he, of tinued pres- etoderieh Notes. As was foreshadowed in a previous let- ter the demands of the temperance party are radical and extreme in rela.tioe to the issue of licenses. A petition has been —circulated asking the Council to reduce the number of hotel licenses to nine, and to establisle but one shop for the sale of liquor. Over 500 names_ ha,ve been ob- tained to this petition. .1A novel idea is also being carried out in connection with the movement, viz,, the obtaining of the signatures of hotel and grocery keepers themselves to the petition. Thre of the prominent temperance -men of th town have this special work in hand ndin - the early part of this week those peripa- • tetic advocates of Prohibition mig t have been seen laboriously passing frofu hotel to hotel, from grocery to grocery, with i what success s best known to them- selves. On Saturday last three boys went to skate on the river here and not satisfied with the good ice, ventured to the centre of the river where the current runs so fast that no ice forms. Here they amused themselves with breaking the thin ice off into the eurrent. A large piece of it, however, suddenly broke and precipitat- ed one of the -bop into the stream. 'Phe other -gallantly endeavored to aid him, but was himself' drawn in. The other boy then ran for help, but the current rapidly• drew them under, and no trace has yet been found of the bodies,although large gangs of men have been cutting the ice every day since. 1 The curling Match between Goderich and Lucknow was not closely eneegh con- tested to be interesting. Lucknew sent three rinks, Tennant, Malcolm and Kerr, skips, while the Goderieh skips were Humber, Hutchinson and Horton. Hum- ber's rink had -a small advantage over their opponents, but Lucknow was 25 points ahead on the whole. Several hy- potheses are put forward to account for the defeat of our men, one being that although the match was played on cold water" they did not confine themselves wholly to that invigorating beverage, an- other that the "essence of moral evil" in other words laziness prevented them from using their brooms with much energy. The charitable way of putting it, however, is that Lucknow has practised more dill- - gently and the return match will .make things even.
