MR EDITOR.—Happening to drive along the 16th con of this township,one day last week, I noticed a' pair of horses which are really objects of pity. They are very little more than skin and bone, and yet they are obliged to work,as can be seen by the shoulders, which are fearfully lacerated. Very little would transform them into beautiful anatomi- cal specimens for a veterinary college; assuredly they would be much better off acting as such. If the owner of these unfortunate brutes, is devoid of mercy, perhaps some one will have enough of that quality to see that some- thing is done to prevent the continuation of this utter disregard for the feelings of dumb creat ures.

DEAT0.—Martha Cartwright, whose death we record this week, was born in Chinguacousy, Peel county, Ont., in April, 1883. She was blind. from the time of her birth, and also since her sixteenth year was very deaf. For the last eighteen years she has lived with her brother, Mr Jas. Cartwright, in Hullett township. In spite of her severe affliction she was of a bright and cheerful dispositicsn. She had a remarkable memory, and was able to repeat hundreds of scripture passages, which had been read to her, and give chapter and verse; in the same way she had also committed about a thou- sand hymns. She was of very reli- gious turn of mind, and spent most of her time meditating on spiritual sub- jects. The doctrines of the New Jeru- salem church (Swedenborgian) in which she firmly believed, were a great comfort to her, especially what they teach concerning the life after death. She was anxious to leave this world, and a few days before her death, real- izing that she was going, she exclaim- ed with delight, "'Thank God, I will see now." The funeral took place on Monday., the tith inst, and a large num- ber of friends turned out in order to pay their last respects to this much be- loved friend.—Cots. NOTES.—Mr W. 11.
