whole a fine one, bas been very
changeable, considerable cold and
with as much fine genial weather
being experienced. Back north,. say
eight or ten miles from Clinton, there
is good sleighing, the road being cov-
ered with firm ice, but hereabouts
wheels are a necessity, The heavy
rain of Tuesday has ewoollen the
creeks until in some cases bridges
are threatened by the floating ice.
IN THE WEST.—Under date - of
the 19th inst., Mr Will Thomas,
formerly of Clinton, writes from
Omaha as follows :—"Father and
mother arrived in this city yesterday
morning. Although father is a little
better, he is still very low. He says
that he is very much better, but to
us he looks very bad. He will re-
main here until May lst, during
which time we look for a great change
for the better. We have had a glor-
ious winter as far as weather is con-
cerned. Should you have one or two
good crops, accompanied with the
passing of a reciprocity bill, I think
Canada as a whole, would have a
wonderful surprise in the way of an
increase in the population. Thous-

they are on top.

warmly applauded during their re-

Constable Wheatley says that un-

The "other fellows" ^nay not feel.

we hope that a bonfire will not be

serious illness of Mrs John Calbick.
She is well up in years, and no hopes
are entertained of her recovery.
Mr Thos Shipley, who has been in

-Mr David Stewart, formerly of

juries is not known, further than that
his shoulder bone was broken. Mrs

Some one signing himself '-Justice"
writes "a letter to the Mail, wherein
he eharges .Mr D. F. Macpherson,of
this town, with being an annexation-
ist. If his ideas of justice are no
more fair than his statements they
are a poor specimen. Mr Macpherson
has never expressed himself as in
favor of annexation, for the simple
reason that he is not, and if "Justice"
is -as good a Canadian citizen as Mr
4acpherson, he ie a good one, for
there is none better in this town.
