Quite a, number of horses were brought to Gorrie on Tuesday for the inspection of the buyers who were here, but•the latter were chary of buying and we un- derstand only one deal was made.

He noticed a cow struggling in the swollen river and un- able to get to shore on account of the ice along the edges of the stream. He attempted to crawl ,on the ice to the swimming cow, and pass a rope over her horns so as to lead her to an open- ing which Mr. Hays was cutting near by so that she could land ; but just as he reached the animal, the ice broke under him, and he was compelled to struggle for his life in the swift running current. He sank completely under water twice; and twice the rotten ice again broke under his weight as he attempted to crawl upon it, but he finally succeeded in effecting a landing.

He was born in Glasgow, Scotland, but came with his parents, when he was three years old, to Lanark Co., Ont. He has lived in Turnberry for 33 years struggling with the pioneers in the then forest, and lat- terly enjoying the affluence which fol, lowecl the years of toil in his early life. In politics he was a sturdy Reformer. He was one of the founders of the Salem Congregational church, and has ever since remained a consistent, staunch supporter of that church. About two years ago he and his wife celebrated their golden wedding. which was indeed an interesting occasion, not only to the family but to the large gathering of friends who were present. Besides his widow he leaves a family of eight child- ren living, as follows :—John, the eldest now living in Michigan ; Mrs. McCallum in Minnesota ; Alex., Wroxeter ; Mrs. Hemphill, Minnesota; Mrs. Jackson and Mrs. Whitley, Manitoba ; D.

Fortune, V.S. of Wroxeter,1i about decided to cease his Monday visits • to Fordwich, but has now made arrange- ments by which he will be able to con- tinue his trips here as usual. His -busi- ness here is growing nicely, The revival meetings, which have : been carried on in the Methodist church • here for some weeks past, have closed. The floods here have, so far, passed off in safety and no material injury has eesulted, although the water has been • very high at times. No purchaser was found for the vil- lage property which was offered for sale under mortgage here on Tuesday of last week. - Wednesday evening was the occasion: of great hilarity here. Our yontrg people met at Mr. Moore's and tripped the light fantastic until early dawn. Some of the boys danced as many as four dances in succession, and others went as far as the "sixth."

Sanderson's store this spring. Some lovely things in the millinery line are to be seen at this store. The saw -mill yard is fairly choked with logs, while both sides of the ad- jacent streets are also well loaded. A large season's work is before the ener- getic managers of this mill. The street known as "the Ninth," be- tween the railway crossing and Dr. Smale's residence, is badly flooded at present, and several vehicles have Came to grief while trying to make the pass.- age. Better go around by the town hall corner for the present. - _ Mr. Jas. Fox, druggist, was in Har- riston on Monday, on a business trip. Dr. Allan, reeve of Arthur, and W. Peterkin, Esq., also of that village, were.. in town on Monday last for a short time. Mr. Jas. Ireland was in Mt. Forest last Monday, returning on the late train. Rev.
