The Morninge�on correspondent of the Stratford Beilion, says:—This week Dr. James Turnbull leaves for Clinton, Where he has formed a partnership with Dr. .Reeve, a successful praoti- `ationer of 25 years' standing in that town. On this, his auspicious entrance on the practice of his ohgsen irofession a few words as to his uniddersity career, brilliant achievements and high stand- ing may not be inopportune. During every year in his medical course_in Toronto University Mr Turnbull stood amongst the very highest in his class. On completing a highly successful course in medicine and graduating with high honors, about a year ago in Toron- to, he, with a number of Canadian students, took a six months' course in the old land. He took a full course at the Brompton Hospital for diseases of the lungs aid chest—the most famous and largely patronized institution of that character in the world. He also in London, took a complete course at tbe,fanle,3 So Ho Square institution -where the diseases of women and child- ren are made specialty. 1n two insti- tutioue several hundreds patients are examined daily, in "Scotia's darling seat," Edinburgh, Mr Turnbull also took a poet -graduate course. Whilst in Edinburgh, diseases of the eye, ear and throat weretaken up as a speci- alty. Here he was appointed to the degree of Fellow of . the Obstetrical Society. Besides these distinguished honors abroatj''r" Mr Turnbull is an M. B. of Toronto University, M. D. C. 117. of Cobourg and a M. C. P. S. O. list iti6'vas.'a practical student that Mr Turnbull won his laurels. A young man of sterling probity, intelligent, genial, magnetic—popular as a youth, as a teacher, exceptionally so among his fellow-students—the doctor is more than ordinarily well equipped to enter on the practice of mejlicine. Every one of his old fellows and acquaintances will honestly and heartily wish him well. We belieye•his professional suc- cess is assured. ix Sawn *ono. . SETTLER'S EXcURSIOAis.—A meet - will be held in. the Council Chamber, Clinton, on Thursday, Feb. 27th, at 1 p m, to arrange for a settler's ex- 'cursion to the Northwest. In the meantime apply to either A. O. Pat- tieon, G. T. R. agent, or W. Jackson Town agent, for particulars. ASSIZE COURT.—The Spring assizes will be held at Goderich.commencing onhe 31st of March. The most im- po tent case to come up is the alleged -loaning ease of the late H. J. hitely. The Spring sitting of the Court of Chancery will be held ori' April 14th. DEATHS.—Mrs Managban,(rdlict of the late Hugh Managan, who met his death several years ago by'an ac- cident,) died on Thursday last, - after a severe illness. She leaves several oh-i?dren, nne of whom is employed with Mr H. R. Walker. Mr J. Cha- ney, a brother-in-law of Mr James McIntyre, died last week at Mainstee, Mich. A HEAVY Loss.—Mr W. J. Big- gins met with a heavy lose the other day, by the death of his thoro•bred Durham cow "Village Flint," from 'pnuemonia. Doc. Blackall was call. ed in and did all that he could for its relief, but he could not save her. She was a high priced animal, being in calf to a superior sire. CHARITY CONCERT.—Our sugges- tion concerning a charity concert has already taken, practical shape, and arrangements are being made to Lave one on the 25th inst. a first class committee has the matter in hand, and intend to get up just as ood a concert as can be given. Our ownepeople should bear this in ind: and as the object is a good one give it as liberal a patronage as they possibly can. Messrs. Shearer and T. Jackson, Jr., have the matter in hand. WHERE WE CAN APPRECIATE Goon WORDS.—If more of our hun- dreds of subscribers would only show their practical support, as, well "as good words, in the way in vihich the writer of the following does, we would be exceedingly thankful :— Roach's Point. - Iolmes, Ed. NEW ERA. DEAR'StR.—Enclosed find my sub• i' scription to the ERA, which is shame- fully over, due. The ERA is always like a breath of home air, and there is no air like Clinuon. All success to town and paper BURGLARY,—Since the disappear- ance of Mr.F. Sheppard, his stock. was left in the premises occupied by him, secureiy locked up, as was sup- posed. The other morning it was found that some one cut a panel out of a back door, and by then removing a bolt, bad gale ed access to the premi- ses, and removed nearly the entire stock'of cloth that had been left therein. When it was done, no one knows, but it is supposed to have been Thursday or Friday night last. I. -strong suspicion rests upon certain parties, and if re itution is not made legal action will/be taken. SosiE OF THE RICE.—Everybody was pleased to see that Mr Chris Dickson was able to e on the street on Monday, (althou h looking very frail) after a long c nfinment to the house; be has wonderful pluck. The appearance of Mr Jos. Chidley on the streets, was also a1 pleasure to his many friends. CounWIlor Cooper is etill• confined to tlee house. Mr John Jackson has had a two week illneseebut is now all right. Mrs S. T. Holmes, of Seaforth, was here last week attending her mother. Mrs Carline, who was in poor health.

Mr W. G. Carling, of St. Paul, (brother of T. M. Carling of Clinton) familiarly known when here as "Little Billy," was married a few days since to a Miss Foster, late of Seaforth. Our hustling former townsman Mr Harry Beacom, who has been making the boot aud shoe business bum at Holmesville, as she never hummed before, has returued to the Hub by the over -land route, and will here- after remain within the confines of civilization. Messrs Charlie Blackstone and Dave Cluff are now working at the Goderich Organ Works. They are both expert and proficient mechanics in thee' different departments, and will be able to give the Goderich people some points on good work. The Brantford Expositor has been purchased by Mr Preston, late of the Winnipeg Sun. Several years ago at the death of Mr Stewart, its pro- prietor, the Expositor was purchased by Mr E. Holmes, late of the NEW ERA,but the transfer was never made, owing to some misunderstanding. Mr John Avery,of theLondon road, who has been appointed permanent Secretary of the Live Stock Insur- ance Company, with headquarters atSeaforth, will dispose of his thorq- bred live stock by auction, on Thurs- day, March 6th, in order to give his full attention to the position he holds. What might have been a serious ac- cident happened to Mrs C C Rance, last week. She was in the act of pushing up a chandelier containing a lighted lamp, when the hook holding it gave way, all falling to the floor, but fortunately the lamp went out; the chandelier was smashed, and Mrs Rance's hand hurt. The many friends of the Mount - castle family will be much pleased to know that through the cleat'. of the late Mr Howard, of Toronto, they have been left a considerable legacy, the full amount of which is not yet known, but which is expected to be et least $10,000. They deserve it all. On Tuesday evening a cab load of young people went to the house of Mr Robt. Acheson, Goderich town- ship, where they were met, amid blast of trumpet and chorus of song, by a similar party from Goderich.— The whole party abeing animated by the good wishes of the host, enjoyed themselves till "late" in the morning SURVEYOR.—Mr Fred W. Farn- combe, Provincial Land Surveyor, formerly with Peters, Jones & Mc- Bride, Architects,• Surveyors, etc., London, is in town with the view of starting business here. We believe there is a good opening here for a first class, surveyor, and Mr Farn- combe should have no difficulty in getting plenty to do, A Hensall correspondent of the Ex- positor says:—"Mr and' MrsB.Kaiser, who were among the old residents of this place and who bad a nice com- fortable Lome here and many friends, removed recently to Clinton, where Mr Kaiser has re-entered the pork packing work." It might be added that Mr Kaiser has charge of Mr Jas. Steep's ,establishment, and is already curing some splendid meat. DEATH.—The wife of Mr C. Avery, of the London road, has just received the news of the death of her brother, Wm. Millne, who died in the neigh- borhood ot Beleye, Central America. He was a young man about twenty- five y ears of age; went out there about six years ago, was very successful as a foreman, and bad started a planta- tion of his own. He was talking to a friend about Christmas day, and made the remark that he never felt better. He was taken sick the next day, and, notwithstanding the atten- tion of six doctors, and surrounded by friends, he passed away on the 8th of January, and was carried to his Scotch comrades. NOTES.—Mr Aubrey, of Montreal, bought seven or eight horses here last week. Mr Geo. Cox, of Detroit is here this week buying. There are three auctioneers in Clinton already, and a fourth individual threatens to take out a license ; there surely can- not be very much money in this business now. Business men com- plain that last year accounts are being paid up very slowly ; we know that this is true in our experience also. Mr Dave Cantelon is away on a visit to Ottawa and Montreal. Mrs Green, of Parkhill, is visiting relatives here. Mr W. Jackson has gone to Montreal on business. Mrs Jas Howard, of Bay City, Mich., was home last week owing to the death of her mother, Mrs Managan. Mr James Young was down at Osha- wa on business last week. Mrs Tay- lor, (daughter of Mrs McLeod,) who has been here -on a visit, returned to Manitoba on Wednesday. Mr. J. A. Rowden, of.Toronto,has been visiting hie Barents and friends in this neigh- bcrbood. Dr. Reeve has taken into partnerahip I)r. Turnbull, late ot Mornington, further reference to whom will be found in another col- umn. It is reported that Messrs A. Hollaway and G. Howson intend to embark in the tailoring business.

The choir of Ontario Street church visited the home of Mr Josiah Butt on Monday evening, and were very hospitably entertained. Rev. J. W. Stewart, of Rochester, (brother of Mrs P. Cole, Clinton) is visiting at Clifton Springs for the benefit of his health. Mr A. H. Manning osicnpied the pulpit of Ontario St. Church in the evening and R. Holmes that of Rat- tenbury Street in the morning of Sun- day last. The -eighth quarterly meeting of the Stanley, Tuckersmith and, Hay Sab- bath School Association, will be held on Wednesday, Feb. 26, 1890, in' the Methodist Church, Chislehurst. A good program has been prepared. Capt. Magee and Lieut. McAm- mond are the officers in charge of the Salvation Army. A "welcome jtlb- ilee" is to night tendered to Major Philpott and his adjutant at the bar- racks. Outside corps and their officers to the number of 15 are to be present. One of the best programs yet given by the Y. P. A. of Willis Church this season, was that given on Tues- day evening last, the following ladies and gentlemen taking part:—Misses Worthington, Jackson, Fair, McGar- va and Messrs. Cook, Shearer, Emer- ton, Chidley, Agnew, Kay and Budge. Rev. Mr Edge gave a good sound practical address on "Character" for a halt hour, which called forth a hearty vote of thanks. Missionary sermons will be held in both Rattenbury and Ontario St. churches, next Sunday. In the morning Rev. Robert Walker, of Clifford will preach in Rattenbury St. church, and in Ontario St. in the evening, Rev. Chaplain Searles, late of Auburn prison, N. Y. will preach in Ontario St. in the morning, and in Rattenbury St in the evening. On the following Monday evening, the same gentleman will lecture in this church, on, 'The misplaced Switch." As a lecturer he has few superiors, and the lecture is said to be one of thrilling interest, so that all should hear it. Mr Will Kay,who has been in poor health for some time, is now back in his old position at the organ factory. We are pleased to see Will is able to be around again, and hope that he has recovered his wonted strength. POETRY AND' FACT.—The follow- ing very truthful 'statement was on the face of an envelope received at this office :— The Clinton NEWRA the cheapest and best Journal that's published in Canada West. In Clinton Holmes is printingthe ERA to -day Subscribe for it now, and your subscription pay. TO UNDERGO AN OPERATION.— Mr Jos, Brownlee, of this place left for Toronto Hospital this week, ac- companied by his sister, where he goes on the recommendation of his medical adviser to undergo a surgi- cal operation for an ailment he is suffering from. MIGHTY MEAN.—A young man named Lighte, who has been working in town, stole away from his boarding house the other night, and skipped, leaving nearly $20, board unpaid. Such an action is mean enough under ordinary circumstances, but it is a great deal meaner when the boarding house keeper, as in this case, is a wid- ow and can't afford to lose any money. We believe the youth went to Wood- stock. A FUTURE PARI{,—With a view to having the agricultural grounds ultimately converted into a public park, we understand that Mayor Doherty has requested the various redreation clubs of town to send in a statement of what improvements they think would be necessary to make the same a complete pleasure ground, suitable alike to the require- ments of the town and amusements that would take place there. BUSINESS CHANGE.-111esSrs Geo. E. Pay & Co. have disposed of their dry goods business to Mr J. Wiseman vyho takes possession in a few days. e understand that it is the intention of Mr Pay, after he gets hie business wound up, which will no doubt take him some time, to remove to St. Cath- erines where his parents reside, and he will likely engage in some other businesg, He has been here about 20 years and has always enjoyed the confidence and esteem of all. In different ways he was active in public affairs, and his removal will be gen- erally regretted. Nie snccessor is well known to our townspeople, hav- ing also been a resident for several years, and will no doubt receive a good share of patronage, as he is known as a competent and reliable business man. MERIT REWARDED.—FOr the las t few years Messrs Doherty & Co. have with true Canadian pluck, competed for the organ trade of a large music house in Glasgow, Scot. In common with the general foreign trade. At first they consigned samples of their unequalled Doherty organs, with the result that orders followed sparingly until their organs were ,}fetter known. Now they have succeeded in entirely overcoming the opposition which con- sisted of the Smith, American, the Estey and other American and Can- adian organs capturing the organtrade of this magnificent house whose busi- ness amounts to about $44,000 per annum. This is certainly'a very gra- tifying result that any organ manu- facturer might well be proud of. That an organ can more than hold its own in a foreign country, without a friend to back it, is another practical proof of the wonderful results acbiev- -ed;...eind found only in the Doherty organ, The firm have already sent to Messrs Doherty & Co. a splendid I order. ,jM 1 LEIOHS!
