Fearing the animals would perish, Mr. Perdue started. after them with a lantern, visiting barns, fields and outhouses, but getttng no trace of - them. Procuring assistance, a fresh search was made, when they were found in Mr. Pratt's orchard, over three miles from the starting point, num- jared. —A very destructive fire occurred a short distance from Belfast, Ashfield township, a few days ago, by which the barn of Mr. Jerry Alton was totally dee strayed, together with its contents, con- sisting of four hundred bushels of wheat, a reaping a.nd mowing maehine, a threshing machine and other imple- ments, besides several hundred bushels of otlaeregrairt. The cause of the fire is unknown. Loss, about $2,000; insured for $800. —The Molesworth Joint Stock Cheese and Butter Manufacturing Company held their annual meeting on Thursday, the 17th inst. It was op. aof thoae cordial, happy meetings that the mem- bers of the aforesaidcompany know how to hold. From necessity, the Secretary's report was adjourned .till the cheese would be sold. The Direc- tors elected for the current year are Hance Cumming, Ilugh Cunningham, Wm: McMillian, Peter Stewart and Jeremiah Belden,—Mr. Cunningham, the retiring President, being the only Director who served last year; but all parties seemed satisfied .that the retir- ing genelemen had done their duty well. A by-law was passed, giving hill power to the new Board to go ahead, bnild, and put the fadtory in proper shape to make and cure cheese accord- ing to the most improved style. The new Board chose Hance Cunningham, Esq., as their President; and they also engaged their old Secretary and Treas- urer at advanced salaries. A very able discussion took place on Joint Stock Companies for the manufacture of cheese and butter, as being the most profitable. Some opposition brought out the members' talents, to defend their system; and the discussion wound. up withthe Secretary's •speech. He said that the Molesworth Joint Stock Factory was the cheapest on this earth, and very nearly proved. it to be so. Some fresh stock was subseribed, and a large premise. The Molesworth factory has very bright prospects. —The Spring Show, under the aus- pices of the Stephen. and.

Last year the proceeds from the same revenue amounted to $11,246.77. —Mr. A. W. Wright,late of Stratford, and a -prominent protectionist and Anti - Dunkin act advocate, goes to Winni- peg to start a daily newspaper. —A valuable horse belonging to John Wiloughby, of Gowanstown, is in a dangerous condition from that malig- nant form of " scratches " so pfevalentl elsewhere. —Mr. Jabez Jewell, late of the town- ship of Hibbert, has moved into Mit- chell, and purchased from Mr. W. Cln- low his house and lot there, for which he paid the latter $600. —The Dominion Hotel, Gowanstown, has been sold by Mr. Edward Anderson to Mr. Harrison D. Jones of Wallace. The.present oceupant Mr. C. Hunt, retves by the beginning of next month for his farra near Guelph. —We take much pleasure in announe- ing that Very Rev. Dean Murphy, Of Irishtown, has recovered from his late illness, and is able to be about as 'usual. This will be welcome news to. his nu- merous friends both in and out of the parish. —Mr Edward Brand, of the 7th con., Wallace, two weeks ago, was pitched from his sleigh- in one of the deep holes on the gravel road and somewhat seri- ously injured, the sleigh running over him. He is able to be round, but is far from well. —Ott the 14th inst., as Mr. George Holmes, of the fourth concession of Wallace, was engaged in chopping in the woods, a limb fell from a . tree be- side him, and, striking him on the arm, broke it. Under proper treatment, he is getting along well since the accident. --A number of dressed. hogs were soId in Mitchell last week to Mr. John. White, pork packer, which averaged 400 pounds each. They were the best offered in Mitchell this year, and they brought $5 50 per 100 pounds. The hogs were fed by Mr. Anthony Goettler, of Sebringville. — Last week, while chopping in a piece of wood, George,- son of Mr. Richard Eshelby, of Mitchell, came near losing one of his ears by accident. When striking upwards, the axe glanced, and struck the lad behind the ear,near- ly severing it from the head. Medical assistance will bring it all right again. —On Friday last Mrs. Irwin Sloan, of Mitchell, came very near losing her life. While attending to her domestic duties, she accidently fell into the cellar, the trap door of which was careless- ly left apen. The lady received severe injuries on the shoulder from the fall, but no bones were broken. It is well that the accident did not result more seriously. — One day last week as Mr. Josiah Murphy was driving to Mitchell his horses took it into their heads to run away. Having no desire to check their -speed, our friend gave them a slack line, but the road was so rough that the _doubletree was soon snapped. in two, al- lowing the animals to go ahead, leaving the cutter and driver behind. The horses ran to Mitchell, where they were brought to a stand. —Iu the township of Wallace a pecu- liar case was submitted to' arbitration last week, arising out of a trifling dis- pute about the ownership of a, few rails. Louis Goebel charged Elijah Ellis with -taking rails from a swamp formerly be- longing to one Newton. It seems that about a year ago, Gmbel purchaSed the property from ago, who had given Ellis a present of the rail timber in, the swamp. After Crcnbel p.m:chasedi the property, he forbade Ellis to rembve the timber; but the, latter paid no atten- tion, but removed the rails he had. Made before Gebel purchased the property ; hence the present difficulty. The arbi- trators were Newton, (who formerly owned the property), 'McNeil, a neigh- bor of his, and G. S. Climie, Listowel. Verdict—Gmbel to pay all costs and keep all rails not removed from the property, Auctiop. Sales. Monday, March 21, on Lot 23, Con. 4, L. R. S., Tuckersmith, Farm Stock and Implements. Alex.
