Gundy, D.D., the newly appointed pastor of Wingham Methodist Church, occupied the pulpit of the church for the first time on Sunday last, and there were large congregations pres- ent at both morning and evening ser- vices. In his preliminary remarks at the morning service Dr, Gundy referred to two peculiarities of Methodism—the class -meeting and the itinerancy. In connection with the former the reverend gentleman gave some sound advice to class -leaders. Regardiug the itinerant system, it was no ordinary thing for the pastor to come before a people for the first time. There was a tendency on the part of the people to compare the new pastor with the former one, and he asked them to snspeud judgment for a while. Before judging, said the speaker, let us get into sympathy and Christian fellowship with one another. Taking for his text the 1st and 2nd verses of 2nd chapter of 1st Coriuthians, the rev- erend gentleman delivered a plain; pra tical and forceful sermon. During hi• discourse he stated that purely part • political questious should have no place in the pulpit. There were of course, semi -political issues, such as the ques- tion of prohibition and Sabbath observ- ances, in regard to which the minister of the gospel was justified in impressing his congregation. with their respons' bility. Bat iu regard to socialieti or political questions most if not all o_ these by which humanity is disturbed will be solved if men only accept Christ as their Saviour, teacher and guide. Rev. Dr. Gundy commences his pastoral work in Winghaui under most favorable auspices, and it is confidently expected that :under his able ministrations the work will continue to prosper. Telephone Judgment. The injunction case of the town of Fort William against the Bell Telephone Company was held recently before Mr. Justice Teetzel at Port Arthur. This case was entered last February b: t town. The confit ordered tha o c be dismissed ; the plaintiff: all not u .

The King himself has graciously direct- ed that they shall be so exhibited. It is hardly necessary to say that they are of immense value and are of rare and won- derful variety. There are upwards of 600 of them -613 to be exact—and come from all parts of the world and from all sorts and conditions of people. Every colony, every state andproviuee of India, every country nearly in the world is re- presented, iucludng Syria and Samoa. As it is the inteution of the Dominion Exhibition Executive to have the full list printed shortly in pamphlet form, partic- ulars of this wonderful collection of pres- ents, richer and more multitudinous by far than those of the Queen of Sheba, will be easily obtainable. ;Ave Stook 1Vlarkets. c' Toronto, July 7.—The offerings of cat- tle at the western market were limited, and prices of choice grades of both butch- ers' and exporters' were higher, The feature of the market was the ad- vauces iu exporters' and butchers' de- scriptions of cattle, due solely to the lightness of the run. If there had been more here values would have been un- changed. Best descriptious of stall -fed butchers'• cattle were lOe to 15c per cwt higher than last week, and heavy ship. ping cattle were also up considerably. The run amounted to 61 cars, contain- ing 771 cattle, 1,502 sheep, and 21 calves. Trade in sheepwere quiet, and prices were unchanged. The prices of milch cotes ranged from $25 to $50 eaoh, according to quality. Hogs declined ten cents today, and the market closed weak. The outlook is for lower prices, owing to there being a large visible supply throughout Canada and the United States.
