Tire ems AND -WOMEN OF THE WHEEL.
The race for bieycles among men has
grown into a tricycles Craze with the
Tediee. It was not so long ago that
BeIva Lockwood on her tricycle was an
object of curiosity, but now youcannot
walk anywhere in town without meeting
ladies on their wheels. Early in the
evening is the fayorite time, for then
they are accompanied by gentlemen.
Tricycles used in Washington for couples
tither have the seats side by side or one
behini the other. The former are cer,
eainly preferable as far as looks are con-
cerned. -Sometimes at dusk you meet a
party with a dozen tricycles, moving
alone noiselessly on the asphalt pave -
mea, or coasting at breakneck speed
down the hilly streets. And this spring
I notice many tricycles for a single rider,
and ladies using them in the daytime to
shop in and go to market. They -axe
the corning vehicle in Washington,
while as to bicycles almost every clerk
and boy in the schools, who can get
money enough to buy one, exults in the
possession of a wheel, and for nine
months in the year is independent of the
raagnificeat distances for which the city
is famous.
MATRIMONIAL.
No further concealment is made that
Mr. Cleveland is to be married, just as
the newspapers said at first. No great
harm has resulted from the publication,
as the facts have corne chiefly from Miss
Folsom's relatives.
Governor Long, of Massachusetts, the
best mannered and the best-moraled man
ID the House on all publics questions, is
to marry, in the early'paxt of June, a
most e,stirnable young lady now teaching
school in his town, the daughter of a
clergyman, and the only support of her-
self and her orphan sister.

DOTS. -Our flax dealers have sewed a
large quantity of flax this spring. -Rev.
Mr. Veale'of Crediton, occupied the
pulpit of the Evangelical church on
Sabbath evening. -Our school house is
to be painted.
SIOK.-Mr. Wilson McCann, one of
the pioneer settlers of this district, has
been quite 111 of -late. We 0 are glad,
however, to learn that he is improving.
He is suffering from some trouble in his
head, which has of latesettled in his
eyes so that he has lost his sight en-
tirely. The family has the sympathy of
the entire neighborhood.
IMPROVEMENTS. -The following is a
list of improvements in our village dur-
ing this season: Our enterprising cabi-
net maker and furniture dealer, Mr.
Ball, has removed his furniture store to
the corner of the street, west of his old
stand. He is.also building° an elegant
new residence °on the eastside ofhis
store. -Mrs. Kellerman has put a
foundation under her residence and also
built a new sta.ble.-Messrs. Soldan and
Wilbert have each put stone founda-
tions underneath their dwellings. -
Messrs. Weseloh and Wurtz have put
an upper storey to their shoe store,
which is occupied by our tailor, Mr. A.
Reynolds. --Mr. Geo. Kellerman is also
building a new brick residence.

BRIEF MENTION. -There was a heavy
frost last Sunday night, which was
severe enough to freeze the water in
vessels outside. -The Rev. G. Turk,
pastor of the Methodist church, deliver-
ed a lecture entitled, "The Leaders of
the Nineteenth Century in the Metho-
dist Church," on Thursday evening last
week to an appeeciative audience. The
lecture was both interesting and instruc-
tive, and was well delivered. -The far-
mers are through seeding in this vicini-
ty, and are busily engaged putting in
their root crops. The spring crops look
well. There is a beautiful display of
blossoms on the fruit trees. -The literary
society in connection with the public
school gave an excellent programme,
consisting of readings, -recitations and
music on Friday afternoon last. We
would like to see more of the residents
of the village patronize these entertain-
ments. -The Rev. ,Mr. Cameron, pastor
of Knox church preached his farewell
sermon to a large congregation last Sab-
bath evening. Many of the congregation
were deeply affected at the minister's
farewell words. The congregation pre-
sented him with some beautiful presents,
showing • their appreciation of his ser-
vices.

That Threatened Law -Suit.
To the Editor of Tits HuRoN Exrosrrort:
DEAR SIR, -1 notice from one of your
local items that you are threatened with
an action at the suit of Messrs. Wray
and Clegg unless you apologise for the
utterances of your Brussels correspon-
dent, who has stated in a previous
issue of your. paper that those gentle-
men are the persons who made the deo-
larations for the Tory party for the pur-
pose of placing certain names on the
list under the provisions of that latest
of Tory swindles known as the "Fran-
chise Act." Now, what can there be to
apologise for? The letter threatening
suit against you does not/pretend to say
that these gentlemen did not subscribe
to the declarations in question, and
being stout supporters of the Franchise
Act they certainly should not be
ashamed of having taken action under
its provisions.
What appears to mc to afford far more
serious food for reflection is the fact
that the action ie threatened by Messrs.
Meyer & Diekenson, one of the mem-
bers of whieh firth holds the distinguish-
ed position of clerk to the Revising
Barrister for this Riding. If officers of
a court are to be allowed in their ca-
pacity of solicitors to bring actions for
matters arising in connection with their
own court, it is contrary to every idea
of right and wrong which has hereto-
fore obtained in Canada, and it certainly
does seem to me that a proper profes-
sional feeling should have induced the
learned gentleman to refrain from rashly
eushing into a suit which his official
position shou

client. You
d have witheld him from

rm the basis of the action
necessarily remain in his

the offielal gentleman's.
Truly,
FARMER.

Medicinal roperties of Honey.
With refere ce to the medicinal pro-
perties of hon y, G. P. Hachenberg, M.
D., in the Arn rican Bee journal, says it
has two physi al elements which make it
particularly a edicine, viz: .
An aromati irritant imparted to it by
the stomach f the bee; and its ready
transformatio into fat, without those
complicated physiological operations
necessary to transfer other saccharine
elements into his material.
These make it at once both a local and
constitutional emedy. Locally, it is an
irritant, seda we, emollient, detergent,
antiseptic, res lvent, rubefacient ,and a
psrasiticide. onstitutionally it is nu-
trient, demul ent, laxative, deebstru-
ent, alterative tonic, expectorant, res-
torative, febr fpge, diaphoretic, vermi-
fuge and anta lirodisiac, as well as con-
taining certa.4 poisonous properties
manifested un r peculiar circumstances.
When we y that honey is both an
irritant and a sedative we mean that its
first effects nu yi irritate, followed with a
sedative Ore ti, All liniments work
beneficially or this principle, the same
with the most of eye -waters, etc. The
solution of ho y as an eyewater proves
particularly hz eficial on account of its
antiseptic, ale o bent or resolvent pro-
perties. It cu es inflammation of the
eye, in the svi. y a solution of boracic acid
does, that is mainly by reason of its
antiseptic an t sledative properties.
The irritan iroperties of honey are,'
ID a grea- tsure, destroyed by dilu-
tion. Theref as a topical irritant,
where we w to favor resolution, by
counteraction it is used in a pure -state
or in conjunc n with more active irri-
tants. It is i1s irritant or rubefacient
•
effect, joined with its emoluent nature
that precipitates local inflammation intl;
suppuration, and is, therefore, a suitable
remedy for abscesses, boils, whitlows,
carbuncles; etc.
An Indian Jugglers' Trick.
Mr. E. Stanley Robertson, lately of
the Bengal civil service, gives an amus-
ing account of some of the tricks of an
Indian juggler. He says: He was Beat-
on a white cloth; which I think, was a
tablecloth borrowed from the mess ser-
geant. He asked some one present to
produce,a rupee, and to lay it down at a
remote edge of the cloth. The cloth
being three or four yards in length, the
conjurer could nothesve touolied the coin
without being seen, and, in fact, did
not touch it. He then asked for a signet
ring. Several were offered him, and he
chose out one which had a very large
oval seal, projecting well beyond the
gold hoop on both sides. This ring he
tossed andturnbled several times in his
hands, now throwing it into the air and
catching it, then shaking it between his
clasped • hands all the time mumbling
half -inarticulate words in some Hindus-
tanee patois. Then setting the ring
down on the cloth at about half arm's
length hi front of him, he said, slowly
and distinctly, in good Hindustanee
"Ring, rise up, and go to he rupee."
The, ring rose, with the seal uppermost,
and, resting on -the hoop, slowly, with a
elind of dancing or jerking motion, it
'spassed over the cloth, until it came to•
where the rupee lay on the remote edge,
then it lay down on the coin. The con-
.;
jeiror then said: " Ring, lay hold of the
rupee, and bring it to me." • The pro-
jecting edge of the seal seeped to grap-
ple with the edge -of the coni; the ring
and the rupee rose into a kind of wrest-
ling attitude, and, with the same danc-
ing or jerking motion, the two return-
ed to within reach of the juggler's;
hand.
I have no theory tO explain either of
these tricks. I should mention, how-
ever, that the juggler entirely disclaim-
ed all supernatural power, and alleged
that he performed his tricks by mere
sleight of hand, It will be observed
that he had no preparation of his sur-
roundings, no machinery, and no con-
federate.
-Furniture needs cleaning as mueh
as other woodwork. It may be washed
with warm soapsuds, quickly wiped dry,
and then rubbed with an oily cloth. To
polish it rub with rottenstone and sweet
oil. Clean off the oil and polish with
chamois -skin.
-A good moth powder is made of
lupuline (ground hops,) one dram;
Scotch snuff, two ounces; camphor -gum,
one ounce; black pepper, one ounce;
cedar sawdust, four ounces. Mix
thoroughly and strew among the furs or
wollens to be protected.

Live Stock Markets.
MONTREAL, May 1Sth.-There was a pretty large
.
supply of hutcherecattle on the markets to -day,
and as the cattle shippers were not buying,
prices were lower, with only one or -two sales
made at ON er 5c. per Ib., while pretty good be,asts
could be got at from Sic. to 4e. per Ib. Rough
steers and fat cows sold at 4c. to lic., and lean-
ish stock, including milkmen's strippers at from
1 30. to 40. per lb. Calves are plentiful and cheap;
sheep are still scarce, and the few offered are
nearly all of indifferent quality, yet the prices'
are pretty high, or about 5e. per Ib., but really
good yearlings would bring 60. per lb. Spring
lambs are plentifuli and generally sell at from
$2.50 to $4 eadh ; fat superior lambs would bring
$5 each. Hogs are plentiful and prices easier,
or from 5fic. to 51c. per lb. The horse market is
, pretty active, and several American buyers are
in the city, but they complain that very few
horses are being brought to the city for sale.
During the past week there were eighty horses
and mares shipped from here to the United
States. They cost $8,951.50, or an average of
8111.90 each. The prices ranged from ,:65 to
$176 each-.
