with the rough, hard roads, and thought
he would take the grass for it, and in
spite of the protestations of the occu-
pants of the buggyjumped over the
fence into Geo. 1.avis' field, and was
taking a straight line across -lots for
home. This, however, he was unable
to'do. and had to content himself with
a circle or tivo around the field, when
all three were willing to take the road
again. Preacher has a few bad habits
which it would be well to break him

bility in the Hess case, is trying to get
his money out of Court by lawyers

A NEw SPHERE. - The following,
'from the Hamilton Times, refers to a
former iesident of Blyth, and is a little
bard on him: -"Prof. T. Pasmore, who
advertised himself on the bill as "late
ediuor of the Patri,otic Canadian and
the pioneer champion of Protestantism
in Canada," lectured twice in the Alex-
andra Arcade Hall yesterday. In the
afternoon his subject was "The Char-
acter and airn of the Papacy.: In the
evening the subject was "Are we Justi-
fied in Publicly attacking Romanian)?"
To the afternoon there were about
people present and in the evening the
paid admissions were 34. Some of
these were disgusted with themselves
for attending, as the so-called lecture
vvas a miserable affair, and the speak-
er's style simply execrable.

roy, has been the guest of Mrs D. Me -
