-The following further particulars
are given of the melancholy accident
which resulted, in the .death of Mrs. E.
A. McFaul : When within a mile of
Cromarty' they were passed by Mr. De
Cantelon, stage driver, with whom Mrs.•
McFaul was acquainted, and. smilingly
passed the time of day, and. spoke of the
exceseive heat and dust. While he was
passing, Mr. DeCantelon says she was
arranging the little child comfortably
in the buggy, preparatory to descending
the hill. A few seconds after he heard
a screaming behind, and turning around.
saw the horse flying towards him, the
lines apparently hanginebat the horses'
heels, having probably been switched
out of Mrs. McFaurs hands while ar-
ranging her child. He attempted to
stop the runaway horse, but it was of
no avail. It passed on and caught up
to a Mr. McDougall, 'driving a team
loaded with hualber. He could. not get
out of the way in time, his own team
becoming excited and requiring all his
tact to guide them. He is not cettain
• whether or not the buggy struck his
loaded wagon, but when the maddened
horse rushed past, the vehicle was tin-
oacupied, the unfortunate lady and her
babe having been thrown out upon the
road: The stage driver is not settled as
to whether the buggy struck the wagon
or not, as the dust to some extent ob-
scured his vision, and .his ' own team
had become so furious as to render it
difficult for him to stop them from rush-
ing over the child; therefore, the im-
mediate cause of the disaster-Wheiler
she attempted to jump from the buggy
with the child in her arms, was thrown
out by reason of the roughness of the
road, or collided with the load of lum-
ber -most remain to some degree a
matter of conjecture. One thing ap-
pears evideut-that maternal solicitude
for her babe hindered. her from ! using
all her efforts for her own preservation,
and. the probabilities are that in her de-
sire to protect it from injury she gave
up control of the horse, and that even
in the fall her endeavors to save the
child rendered her own chances of es-
cape less favorable. When found she
was quite dead, and on examination it
was ascertained that the skull over the
temple had. been crushed in, several ribs
were broken, and that she had sustain-
ed other severe braises. • Death must
have resulted almost instantly,
:...The Freeholder announces the
death of Mr. Andrew Hodge, of Corn-
wall, aged 58 years: From 1850 to
1853 he was Government Inspector of
Masonry on the Cornwall and. Beau-
harhois Canals. Between the years
1850 and. 1870 he was also engaged in
and completed several important con-
tracts:such as the Valleyfield Paper
Mills, the Grand Trunk Railway exten-
sion from Port Huron to Detroit, the
waste weir on the Cornwall Canal, 36c.
He was always regarded by, Mr. Page,
the Chief Engineer of the Public
Works Departnaent, as one of the best
and most reliable contractors in Cana-
da. For many years he took au active
interest in municipal matters, occupied
a seat at the Council Board for a long
time, and. was Mayor for two years,
• after which he retired. In politics he
was a staunch. Reformer, and in religion
he was a member -of Knox Presbyterian
Church.

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 beat people as to its merits : I have
used Dobbins' Electric Soap, made by J., L. Ot'gin
& Co., Philadelphia, Pa. and find it very good.
The clothes are beautifully white and the washin
is done in much leas time -Mrs. M. P. Hayes.'
" I used Dobbins' Electric Soap, according to di-
rections, and found the clothes whiter than when
washed in the old way, 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 claims for it, and most confidently recom-
mend it as economizing both time and labor, and
as doing its work well -Mrs. T. Goldsmith."
"Having givee Dobbins' Electric Soap a fair trial,
I think it is all the manufacturers represent it to
be Mrs. R. T. Coleman." I desire all my friends
and customers to give this Soap one trial, so they
may know just how good the best soap in the
United States is THOMAS KIDD, Seaforth,
