-0,n Tuesday • evening last week,
seine lads called on Mr. Kitching, of
.Exeter, for a watch left there for re-
pairs, but for some reason were refused.
'They then got boisterous • and broke
open the deers and windows. We
learn they • afterwards obtained the
- watch.
-Many of our readerswill regret to
, learn of the death, of Mr.W. H. Gibbons,
! of Goderich, only son of Sheriff Gib-
bous, which took place on Friday last.
Mr. Gillbons was 36 years of ageaand
was a universal favorite with all who,
knew him.. -Consumption Was the dis-
ease which caused his death.
-Mr., W. lire*, of Clinton, who has
•
acted as baggage and freight master in
that place since the opening of the Lan-
don, Huron, and Brace Railway, has
been appointed to the position .of sta-
tion agent at Whitechurch, on the !
• -

taken by Mr. Battle, of Wingham.
---Some nights ago a tramp stopped
at Alma, Hotel, on the HuaenRoad, and
asked, for 0, night's lodging, which was
. given him., Next morning the landlord
- thought Mr. Tramp was sleeping a long
- time, and went up to the room,. but was
, • mortified to discover that the fellow had
- taken his departure, carrying away with :
him the bed clothes.
-Ori Monday,. 2nd inst.., Councillor
- Ryan, of Stephen,. lost a valuable colt'

flicted by a cotes horns. Mr. Sweet,
V. S.„ who was called in, found the aid-
raal7e abdomen ripped open, and the en-,
trails protruding. over ten feet, and
- lying on the snow, cold. The animal
was very weak, and. by advice of Mr.
Sweet was. killed.. It was valued at
5.
-Mr. Edward Lundy, of the town-
ship of Hallett, has for some time been,
fattening oxen, which he intended to
• sell. Oa Tuesday last week, during
• Mr. Lundy'sabsence, one or two of that
gentleman's children fedthe oxen to 47'

. staff. Upon Mr. Lundy'S return home
one of the- animals was qb.ite dead,.
and for some time the: other. was not

recovered.
-We regret to learn that Miss Kitcha
lag, of Exeter, while 'visiting at Mr.
Huater's, Usborue, on Sunday morning.,
of last -week, was going out of the- door,
when she slipped, falling upon the ice.
In the endeavor to keep herself from •

one of which,in the fall,. came in con, -
tact with an axe, which cut it severeltia
Dr. Hyndman was called in, and attend-
ed to the wound. We learn she is im-
proving.
-The Exeter Reflector is responsible -
for the following: A certain enamored
couple in town were made the Victims!
of a too practical joke lately.- A young
man, dressed in the habit of a parson,
• and, with prayer -book, performed the:
marriage ceremony, dispensing witla
license and refusing
pay. The -couple!
- felt happy and: thanliful, but have since'
been made -aware .of the -fraud. We
learn they contemplate being re -married
at an early period,. This is carrying al

A lad .about ten years of -age, named
Teder, was severely injured on Monday
of last week, while playing iii the scilooll
yard in Exeter. It appeara• the b-oye
chain that was left dragging, and just
when crossing the railway track it
caughtin one of the rails and held fast.
A train was approaching, and he, fear-
ing a run over, whipped his horses, but
they were unable to get clear. The en-
gineer tried to frighten the horses by
whistling, but it was of no use, and the
train passed along, fortunately on the
other track. _
-About thel18th of March, a party
of 26 persons will leave the township of
Hullett for Manitoba, taking with, them
stock, 8cc., and going by way of Chicago.
Mostly all are from the neighborhood of
Londesboto the party being made up of
•Hagyards, 'Adys, Cockerlines, Sunder -
cocks, Armstrongs, and others.
-Some parties entered the school
house at Lochalsh, in 'the township of
Ashfield, a few evenings ago, by sniash-
ing one of the window panes, and after
rummag,ing through the desks, depart-
ed, leaving the windows down. This
is the second time that this has been
done, and it is time that measures were
taken to bring the guilty parties to jus-
tice.
. -A church belongiug to a branch, of
the Free Church of Scotland was open-
ed Lochalsh, iu Ashfield, on Sunday,
the 2nd inst., by Rev. Mr. Ross, of
Brumfield, who preached three ser-
mons during the day, one in Grelic and
two in English. The attendance was
large, the building, which is a snug lit-
tle structure, being quite full.
-On Saturday, the 8th inst., there
were conned in the Goderich jail 22
prisoners, viz:: 18 males and 4 females.
Of these 8 are awaiting trial, 7 are com-
mitted as vagrants, 2 are insane, the
remaining 7 are in for various petty
offences. On the 18th of this month
last year there were 26 in jail, the larg-
est number at one time during the year.
Iu the fail of 1855, at the opening of the
Assizes, there were 28 persons confined
in the jail, of these 5 w.ere sent to
Singston for terms ranging' from "2 to
7 years. Bub this was when the Conn,
ties of Huron and Bruce were United.
It does not seem as though the need
0,
for jails is lessening. '
-A man entered the engine room,
where the magietrate'a court in Exeter
was in session &no evening lately, and
very unceremoniously strode up before
Squire Gidley, and asked to be sent up
to the building in tke town of Goderich
'where they give free board to a certain
class of people. Constable Gill gave
the gentleman a couple of nights' lodg-
ing in the lock-up, and he left town on
the next morning. He gave his name
as Wm. White, L,,ia professed. to be a
miller by trade. He had been wander-
ing about town for a week, and got
aid from several- parties in the shape of
money, which, from his appearance,
one would suppose was spent in purchas-
ing liquor.
-Last spring J. Alexander, of Brus-
sels, offered. prizes for the best six in
100 tubs of _ butter for exportation.
Awards have been made, and returns to
hand, from Aberdeen, Scotland. First
prize, Mrs. John Crerar, $5.; 2d, six
equal, $1 each, Miss Botz, Mrs. James
Ryan, Mrs. R. Breadfoot, Mrs. James
Fergusen, Mrs: Hugh Hanna, and Mrs.
Alex. Robertson. In the first prize tub,
Liverpool salt was used. These prize
tubs netted 14c per lb., besides paying
ex,penses. Mark the result of care. X
Wroxeter merchant sent to Glasgow
about the same time a.lot of butter, and
only realized 5,1c. Mr. Alexander. says
he intends to further encourage those
who take a delight in making good but-
ter.
-On Monday night some one. stole a
four year old black mare, with a white
strip in its face, from the stable of Mr.
W. Craig, Bayfield' concession. The
same party broke into a root house and
stole therefrom a quantity of provisions.
Through the negligence of the youth at-
tending the stock (Mr. Craig being ill)
the theft was not known until Tuesday
t afternoon, when the eonversation in the
house turned on the1horses, and refer-
ence was made to the "black mare," he
incidentally remarked, " Why, she's
stolen" Mr. Craig at once communi-
cated with Constable Dickinson, who
sent particulars concerning the 'theft to
several. constables at a distance.. The
mare was found tear Brucefield, where
she was left by the thief. As a man
broke out of Goderich jail that day,
the supposition is that he stole the
horse and. provisions in order to aid his
escape.
-The new Masonic lodge room iu
Mr. Samwell's new block, Exeter, is one
of the handsomest and most complete
to be found in any part of the Province,
and reflects credit upon Lebanon Forest
Lodge. The ante -room is handsomely
carpeted, and its appointments, as well
as those of the rooms for the conferring
of the higher degrees, are most thor-
ough. The lodge room - is very large
and handsomely decorated. all the
finest furniture bearing the badge
Of Masonry. • The work on the • ceiling,
executed by Mr. Darling, is strikingly.
handsome, creditable alike to the de-
signer and the workman. The pattern
of the carpet is in. squares, like the most
of Masons, eaeli hlock bearing the in-
evitable square mild: compass. Alto-
gether, the room is 'worth seeing, 'and
should be, as it doubtless is, the pride
of every member of the fraternity. The
overseeing of the ,work, we believe, de-
volved upon the W. M., R. Seldon, and
Brother L. Thorne. and right well have
they performed their duty. The first

DOBBINS' ELECTRIC SOAP. -Having Ob-
tained the Agency of this celebrated soap in Sea -
forth and Huron County, I append the opinion of
some of our best people as to Its merits: I have
used Dobbins' Electric Soap, made by J, L. Cragin
& Co., Philadelphia, Pan, and find it very good.
The clothes are beautifully white and. the washing
is done in much less time -Mrs. M. P. Ela.Oes.'
"1 used Dobbins' Electrie Soap, according to ni-
rections, and found the clothes whiter than whea
washed in the old wily, and in half the usual time
-Mrs. M. Y. McLean." "1 have tested Dobbins'
Electric Soap, and am highly satisfied with the'
result. I believe it capable of doing all the wrap-
per elaime for it, and most confidently recom-
mend it as economizing both time and labor, and
as doing its work well -Mrs. T. Goldemith."
"Having given Dobbins' Electric Soap a lair trial,...
I think it is all the manufacturers represent it to
be -Mrs. R. T. Coleman.' I desire all my friends
and eustomers to give this Soap one trial, so tbey
mayecnow jusb how good the best soap in the
United Stetes is THOMAS KIDD, Seaforth,
