formerly a resident of Yorkville, On.,
lost his life. The deceased was unload-
ing a load' of salt into a ear over a short
plank, which was req ired owilag to a
lumber obstruction, when the plank,
over which he was pushing a barrel of
salt, slipped forward, precipitating the
deceased to the ground with his shoul-

the stomach. After somewhat recover-

—It appears that the conduct of the
Goderich youths while attending public
meetings, , concerts, &4.,is the reverse
of exemplary. This is not to be won-
dered at, its every town and village in
the Province has its modicum of rowdies,
who requite a sharp eye and a tight rein
to keep them withm reasonable bounds.
But the S4r complains of the young la-
dies on the front seats whispering and
laughing during the performance of some
exquisite Piece of musie by a celebrated
professor. 1 Oh, fie, Mr. Star, and
you a bachelor, too. You, "prefer lis-
tening WI a musical composition well
played." We don't believe a word of it.
Let the young ladies have their giggle in
peace, 'tit second nature, you know.
