The address was a fine specimen of or-

framed. Dr. Nichol, on behalf of the
Bayfield congregation,. presented Mr.

by a purse containing a sum of money.
The Rev. Mr.Hodgins, who though

LOCAL BRIEFS. —Robb Brothers' sale,
which was to have been held on the
25th inst., has been postponed to April

last week, after a day or two's, illness.
Cause unknown. Wm. Clark, of Mor-
ris, has made an assignment to Win.
Clegg, of Winghara, - for the benefit of
bis creditors. It is expected the estate
will pay about 100 cents on the dollar.—
Things are quiet this N:veek, as people
are unable to get around for mud. The
roads are in a bad condition.—The
farmers are beginning to discuss the ef-
fect of the duty the Americans propose

MeLauchlin, being lot 2, concession 7,
Grey, to John Cardiff, for $4,500. This
lot was sold twelve years ago by her to
Donald McLauchlin for $7,090. The
buildings were the same as now. Is it
the N. P. that has caused this? It
came in force one year after r the first
purchase, and we were then told it
would raise the prices of farm ,lands of
Canada,_ as well as everything else, but
taxes. This property is a striking exam-
ple of what such promises are Worth. •

Sandy Gibb, master blacksmith in a
certain town in Scotland, was Summon-
ed'as a witness to the Sheriff's Court in a
case between two of his workmen. The
Sheriff, after hearing the testimony,
asked Sandy why he did not advise
them to settle, seeing the costs had al-
ready amounted to three times the
amount of the disputed claim. Sandy's
reply was 1—" 1 advised the fools to
settle, for I saw that the shirrs -racer
wad tak' their coats k the law -were their
sarks, an' gif they gist to your lordship's
haunds ye'd tear the skin airthem."
Sandy was erdered to stand down.
