FINES. -On information laid by Con- stable Wheatley, W.H.Boyd was fined $2 and costs for selling oysters on Sun- day. On information laid by Inspector Paisley, J. Spooner was fined $30 and costs, for violation of the Crooks Act. A,similar charge against Mr. Lee, after three hearings, was dismissed. DISHONESTY SOMEWHERE.-Reeent- lyMr T. Walker, stcnemason, had the misfortune to lose a pocket book on north gravel road, but notwithstand- ing the fact that he advertised the lose and offered a reward for the return of it, the finder has not yet had the hon- esty to giveit to its owner. Mr Couch met with a similar experience; his pocket book contained papers, etc., that indicated its ownership, but the amount of money it contained was evi- dently too strong a temptation for the finder, who has thus far failed to re- turn it. A FINE ANIMAL - Mr. Arthur Mc- Csea,, ettown, has just obtained a fine thoro-bred Jersey cow. It was bought for him by Mr. James Snell,of Hullett, on whose good judgment as a stock - raiser, Mr.McCrea was satisfied to rest, and he hasnot been disappointed. She was purchased from the herd of Mrx. Jones, below Toronto, at a good figure, and is a registered animal. It arrived here on Wednesday, and is "as pretty as a picture." Mr. McCrea thinks that Mr. Snell made an excellent selection. A spring calf, of the same stock, came at the same dine, also selected by Mr. Snell for a-pavy--in Hullett.- - A DEEE-11—me'r.-Several-p .ersonS'Ofi the Huron road east of town, had a novel and exciting deer hunt on Thanksgiving Day. A deer was dis- covered in a field and Messrs Geo. and Will Shipley gave chase, the latter getting in a couple of shots with a rifle; whether he hit it or not is unknown, but he failed to bring it down, and Mr J. Weise followed it also for a couple of miles, getting in four rifle shots at it as it was on the jump, the last of which brought it down. It had three bullet holes in its neck. It was a doe, and in splendid condition. It is not known where it came from, bet seek animals are exceedingly rare here- abouts. Cornecm-A. special meeting of the ton council was held on -Monday evening, to consider the application of -Mrs Tilfftstote -allowed-to-move-her, hotel stable inside the fire limits, she agreeing to comply with the by-law threon. The matter was briefly dis- cussed, and on motion of Deputy -Reeve • Kennedy, sec. by Coun. Plummer. her request was granted, she to give a bond that she would comply with the fire by-law within a specified time. A. bill of $113.50, for work in conneetion with levelling the park, was submitted and passed. Mr Forrester, on behalf of the Park Special Committee, explained what had been done there, stating that unless the weather was favorable, the work could not be finished this season. A balance of $65, of the special grant for the purpose, still remains uneoe- pended. THE STAVELEY ESTATE. -kr mint Brunsdon, of Londesboro, the surviv- ing executor named in the will el the • late James Staveley, has taken charge of the estate and is making application for proleate. The value of the estate so far as at -present a ears, is in the neighborhOod Of $35„ and by the will the *hole estate goes to one Frank Thompson, who predeceased the testa- tor, leaving a family of three children, one of whom has been in town with a view to Isis making a claim for the pro- perty. The supposition however is that the beneficiary named in the will being dead, the property lapses, and in the event of its being proved that Mr Staveley has no heirs,the whole estate will go to the Province. Messrs Man- ning '+35 Scott have been appointed by the Attorney General to represent him in the matter. THE DOHERTT ORGAN—Mr. Doherty has just completed the design of a new case that is sure to take a forensost place among parlor organs. It is a six - octave, and of a style at once the most beautiful, chaste and evenly balanced we have seen. Mr. Doherty exhibits great breadth in his designs; he has from the smallest organ that the poor- est can buy, to the largest, which is fit for the drawing room of the wealthiest, and each is a perfect organ. We have no hesitation in saying the new six -oc- tave will bring more laurels to the Do- herty crown. Mr. Clary, who repre- oente this Organ in the old country, writes that he is meeting with enlarged tatedesS news that will be welcome to eVerybOdy, whO appreeiates the value or this factory to the tewn, With such a thorengh busineSs man at its head. 4 A CUAlietft,-In this weeles issueof the IsTf3wskReCord Mr Whitely intim* ates.bie retireMent fron; 04. editorial management thereof, alma Ms partner, Mr Todd, makes his bow as sole pre, priotor and editor, Vront newa etand_point the Newa,RecOrd is the hest ConseevatiVe paper in the county, but its editorial opinions and our own differ so materially that we cannot endorse that part of it. We trust, however, that Mr Todd may find the venture a financial success. TRH MAYORALTY, - Already the question of "who shall be Mayor next year?" is being discussed, and the con- sename of opinion seerne to be that if Mayor Doherty wants another term there will be no opposition to him. Ex -mayor Forrester's name has been mentioned as a possible candidate, but he states that he will only accept the position in case Mayor Doherty desires to retire, and under no other circumstances. He has had ample -ex- perience and is well qualified for the seat. The office has been well filled and the duties properly discharged by the present incumbent, who has given very general satisfaction.
