ing 40x60 feet, was " raised " . in the
short space of 25 minutes, on the 12th
inst. Mr. Robert L Coulton, of Strat-
ford, was the contractor, and. 'he had so
prepared the woodwork that when placed
in position it fitted like a glove. The
captains of the "bee " were Messrs.
Keegan and Middleditch.
—Mr. John Kastner, P. M.,, Downie,
has a, field of fall wheat, the stalks of
which average fully 70 inches in height.
The heads are filling well, and from all
appearance the yield will . be immense.
Mr. Peter Smith, near Conroy, is the
fortunate possessor of a field of Tread-
well wheat, in which the average height
is 66 inches. The frost has done but
little damage to grain in this township,
though potatoes and tender vegetables
have had to suffer.
—A diabolical act Was perpetrated a
few days ago on a span of horses belong-
ing to Mr. John Parker, of Logan town-
ship, and a colt the property of Mr. John
Bell. The animals were found on a side
road cut and hacked in a shocking man-
ner, the wounds appearing as if done
with a knife. or scythe. :Parker charged
Robert Campbell with the offence, and
the case was heard before Maistrates
Flagg and Humberston. Parker swore -
that he caught Campbell in the act of
cutting the horses, but, instead of inter-
fering, he went after his brother ,to , as-
sist him. There being no proof of Camp-
bell's guilt, the case was dismissed.
SIR WALTER SCOTT ON LUSH HUMOR.
—The poverty of the Irish is not ex-
aggerated, nor their good humor, nor
their whimsical absurdity, nor their
courage. There is perpetual kindness in
the Irish cabin—butter-milk, potatoes.--
a
otatoes—a stool is offered, or stone is rolled that
your honor may sit down, and be, out of
the smoke, and those who -beg every-
where else seem desirous to exercise free
hospitality in their own houses. Their
natural. disposition is turned to gaiety
and happiness ; while a Scotchman is
thinking about the term -day, or, if easy
-on that subject, about hell in the next
world—while an Englishman is making
a little hell in the present, because his
muffin is not well toasted—Pat's mind is
always turned to fun and ridicule. They
are terribly excitable, to be sure, and
will murder you on slight suspicion, and
find `out next day that it was all a .mis-
take, and that it was not yourself they
meant to kill at all, at all.
