And Brune, brough up in the religious belief of the natural supremacy of the elder brother, went off without another word, but with a heart full to overflowing of turbulent, angry thoughts.In the morning Will went to see Mrs.Frostham.He told her of his interview with l lfar Fenwick, and begged her to help Aspatria with such preparations as could be made.But neither to her nor yet to Aspatria did bespeak of Fenwick’s avowed intenton to leave his wife after the ceremony.In the first place he did not believe that Fenwick would dare to give him such a cowardly insult ; and then, also, he thought that the sight of Aspatria’s suffering would mak^ him tender toward her.William Anney’s simple kindly soul did not understand that of all things the painful result of our sins are the most irritating.The hatred wo ought to give to the sin or to the sinner, we give to the results.Surely it was the saddest preparation for a wedding that could be.Will and Brune were “out." They did not speak to each other, except about the farm business.Aspatria spent most of her time in her own room with a seamstress, who was making the long delayed wedding-dress.’I’he silk for it had been bought for it more than a year, and it had lost some of its lustrous color.Mrs.Frost-ham paid a short visit every day and occasionally Alice Frostham came with her.Hhe was a very pretty fdrl, gentle and affectionate to Aspatria ; and just because of her kindness Will determined at some t ime to make her mistress of Seat-Ambar But in the house there was a great de pression, a depression that no one could avoid feeling.Will vave no orders wedding festivities ; a great dinner ami hall would have been a necessity under the usual circumstances, hut there were no arrangements even for a breakfast.Aspatria wondered at the omission, but she did not dare to question Will ; indeed, Will appeared to avoid her as much as he o< mid.Really, William Annoys was very anxious and miserable.He had no dependence upon Fenwick’s promise, and he felt that if Fenwick deceived him there was nothing possible but the last vengeance.He had this thought constantly in his mind ; and ho was quietly « rdering things on the farm for a long absence, and for Brune’s management or succession.He paid several visits to Whitehaven where was his hanker, and to Gosport, where his lawyer lived.He felt, during qhat terrible interval of suspense, verw much as a man under sentence of death might feel The morning of the fifteenth broke chill and dark, with a promise of rain.Great Gable was carrying on a conflict with an army of gray clouds assailing his summit and boding no good for the weather.The fog rolled ami eddied from side to side of the mountains, which projected their black forms against a ghastly, neutral tint behind them ; and the air was full of that melancholy stillness which so often pervades the last days of autumn.Squire Atineys had slept little for two weeks, and he had been awake all the night before.While yet very early he had everyone in the house called.Still there were no preparations for company or feasting.Brune came down grumbling at a breakfast by candle-light and he and William drank their coffee and made a show of eating almost in silence.But there^was an unspeakable tenderness in William’s heart, if he had known how to express it.He looked at Brune with a new speculation in his eyes.Brune might soon be m ister of Xmhar-Side : what » ind of a master would he make'?Would he he loving to Aspatria?When Brune had s ms to inherit the land would he remember his promise .ml avenge the insult to the Annoys, if he, William, should give his life in vain / Out of these questions many others arose ; but he was naturally a man of few words and not able to talk himself into a conviction that he was doing right ; nor yet was h> able to give utterence to the vague oh jections which, if defined by words might perhaps have changed his feelings and his plans He had sent Aspatria word that Hi must be read} at ten o’clock.At eight she began to dress.Her sleep had been broken and miserable.She looked anxiously in the glass at her face.It was as white as the silk robe she was to wear.A feeling of dislike of the unhappy garment rose in her heart.She had bought the silk in the very noon of her love and hopes, a shilling piece of that pearl like tint which only the most brilliant fresh ness ami youth can becomingly wear.Many little accessories were wanting She tried the Roman cameos with it, and they looked heavy; she knew* in her womanly heart that it needed the lustre of gems, the sparkle of diamonds or rubies.Mrs.Frostham came a little later, and assisted her in her toilet ; hut a passing thought of the four bridesmaids she had once chosen for this office made her eyes dim, while the stillness of the house, the utter neglect of all sy ml nils of rejoicing, gave an ominous and sorrowful atmosphere to the bride-robing.Ntill, Aspatria looked very handsome ; for as the melancholy toilet offices proceeded with so little interest and so little sympathy a sense of resentment had gradually gather ed in the |>oor girl’s heart.It made her carry herself proudly, it brought a flush to her cheeks and a flashing, trembling light to her eyes which Mrs.Frostham could not comfortably meet.A few minutes !>efore ten.she threw over all her fateful finery a large white cloak, which added a decided grace and dignity to her appearance.It was a garment Ulfar had sent her from London —a long mantle-like wrap, made of white cashmere, and lined with quilted white satin.Long cords and tassels of chenille fastened it at the throat and the hood was trimmed with soft white fur.She drew the hood over her head, she felt glad to hide the wreath of orange buds and roses which Mrs.Frostham had insisted ijjh>ii her wearing,—the sign and symbol of her maidenhood.Will looked at her with stern lips, but as he wrapped up her satin-sandalled feet in the carriage, he said softly to her, “God bless you, Aspatria !’’ His voice trembled, but not more than Aspatria’s as she answered, —- “ I hank you, Will.You and Brune are father and mother to me to-day.There is no one else." “Never mind, my little lass.We are enough." She was alone in the carriage.Will and Brune rode on either »ide of her.The Frosthama, the Dawsons, the Bellendens Hie Atkinsons and the Luttons followed Will had invited everyone to the church, and curiosity brought those who were not moved by sympathy or regard.Fortunately the rain held off though the air was damp and exceedingly depressing.When they arrived at Aspatria Church they found the yard full ; every gravestone was occupied by a little party of gossips.At the gate there was a handsome travelling chariot with four horses.It lifted a great weight of apprehension from William Anneys, for it told him that Fenwick had kept his word.He helped Aspatria to alight, and his heart ached for her.How would she be able to walk between that crowd of gazing, curious men and women?He held her am tight against his big heart, and Bruno, carefully watching her, followed close behind.But Aspatria’s inner self had taken possession of the outer woman.She walked firmly and nroudly with an erect grace, without hesitation and without hurry towards her fate.Something within her kept saying words of love and encouragement : she knew not what they were, only they strengthened her like wine.She passed the church door whispering the promise given her, “It is 1.Be not afraid." And then her eyes fell upon the ancient stone font at which her father and mother had named her.She put out her hand and just touched its holy chalice.The church was crowded with a curious and not unsympathetic congregation.Aspatria Anneys was their own, a dales-w-oman by a thousand years of birthright Fenwick was a stranger.If he was going to do her any wrong and Will Au-neys was ready to punish him for it.every man and woman present would bave stood shoulder to shoulder with Will 1 hero was an undefined expectation of something unusual, of something more than a wedding.This feeling though unexpressed, made itself felt in a very pronounced way.Will and Brune looked confidently around ; Aspatria gathered courage with every step.She felt that she was among her own people, living and dead.As soon as they really entered the church, they saw Fenwick.He was with an officer wearing the uniform of the Household troops ; and he was evidently pointing out to him the ancient tombs of the Amhar-Anneys family, the Crusaders in stone, with sheathed sword* and hands folded in prayer and those of the family abbots, adorned with richly floriated cross- warrant that is not in your say ao l lfar Fenwick." As he spoke, Fenwick’s friend bar ded Will Anneys a card : then they drove rapidly away.Will was carefully wrapping his sister for her solitary ride back to Seat-Ambar ; and he did this with forced deliberation, trying to appear un-distubed by what had occurred ; for, since it had happened he wished Ins neighbors to think he had fully expected it.And while ao engaged he found opportunity to whisper to Aspatria : “Now my little lass, bear up as bravely as may be.it is only one hour.Only one hour dearie ! Don't you try to speak.Only keep your head high till you get home, darling !" So the sad procession turned homeward, Aspatria sitting alone in her carnage, William and Brune riding on either side of her, the squires and dames hidden to the* ceremony foil >wiug slowly behind.Some talked softly of the affair ; some passionately availed William Anneys for not felling the villain where he stood.Gradually they said good by, and so went to their own homes.Aspatria had to speak to each, she had to sit erect, she had to hear the wondering, curious gaze not only of her friends, but of the hinds and peasant women in the small hamlets between the church and Seat-Ambar ; she had to endure her own longing and disappointment, and make a pnorattempt to smile when the children flung their little posies of late flowers into the passing carriage.To the last moment she bore it.“A good, brave girl !" said Will, as he left her at her own room door.“My word ! it is better to have good blood than good fortune : good blood never was beat ! Aspatria is only a little lass, but she is more than a match for yon villain ?A big villain he is, a villain with a latchet !" The miserable are sacred.All through that wretched afternoon no one troubled Aspatria.Will and Brune sat by the parlour fire for the most part silent.The rain, which had barely held off until their return from the church now boat against the window panes and drenched and scattered even the hardy Michaelmas daisies.The house was as still as if there , had been death instead of marriage in it.Now and then Brune spoke and sometimes William answered him, and sometimes he did not.At last, after a long pause, Urn ne asked : “What was it Fenwick’s friend gave you ?A message !" “A message.’’ “You might as woll say what, Will.” “Ay, I might.It said Fenwick would wait for me a week at the Sceptre l un, Carlisle.” “Will you go to Carlisle ?” “To be sure I w ill go.! would not miss the chance of ‘throwing’ him, - no, not f, chilling and piercing winds may bring you to the verge of despair, from agonies and excruciating pains.Can you all' >rd to go on bearing agonies that may prove fatal at any moment !

he then deftly pinches and rolls the two pieces simultaneously, so that each, in a second’s time, assumes the form of a rough globe with a long tail to it A dozen of these he sticks lightly together in one lump, and in this form th y lie for several hours and until the clay has attained by partial drying the proper hardness for successful moulding.After th s process they pass to the “moulder.” Kach moulder sits at a low’ bench wiih a simple lever press before him.lie also 1ms an iron mould consisting of two parts, hinged together.The interior of this mould is covered with whatever emblems or letters it is intended that the pipe shall hear in relief upon its surface.Taking up a tip of clay and tunnelling it with oil.so as to prevent the clay from sticking to the mould, he lays it in one half of the mould, and runs through it a long steel needle, which makes the stem with a hole in it.After this the man closes the mould, pushes it into the press and brings down the stopper upon it.which forms the bowl of the pipe.As he pulis the mould out again a sharp, swinging knife automat ically pan's off smoothly the excess of clay squeezed out at the top of the bowl, and all this is done as rapidly as the deft lingers of the man can work.The “roller” can turn out )1S4 tips in an hour, and the “moulder, ’who makes from #16 upward a woeV, must, if he works ten hours a day for six days, mould at least 256 pipes per hour,or a little over four andaquarter a nfcnute,for the sum stated, as his wages are only 20 cents a gross.The moulder’s dozen is sixteen, and not twelve, and his gross 192, instead of 144.How the hole gets into the macaroni and vermicelli is one of the simplest things in the world.The host materials ore used in the manufacture.The wheat is the best hard winter wheat, from which the flour is made, and there is an almost interminable kneading of it so as to make the dough as compact as possible.The men are employed in punching it as long as they can stand the labor.It is then taken out and placed upon a table, where it goes through another siege of punching with pestles until it is considered of sufficient toughness to go into form.From the table, in a great mass,it is taken and placed in a copper cyclinder sitting vertically upon a round frame with a hole in the center underneath the receptacle.Above this cyclinder Is a strong screw.The dough is placed within the vertical cyclinder, and on top of this is placed a piston which fits the cyclinder perfectly ti_rht.The screw is run down upon the piston,and men take hold of the three long levers attached to the lop of the screw and walk around slowly, thus forcing the pis to» down upon the dough within the cylinder.It is after the screw gets a good hold that s ender streams of dough may be noticed shooting down underneath thecylin-der, through small perforations in the b dtom,and ns they reneh the length of two or more feet, they are cut off by a man who hangs them over a wooden frame and carries them away whore they remain to drr on frames for eight days, when they are ready for use.The big holcfl in the cylinder make macaroni and the small holes vermicelli.It re.juires a close inspection of the cylinder b» discover h w the hole gets in the dough.Depending from each of these holes in th?' copper cylinder is a wire which is of a small size for vermicelli ami a larger size for macaroni.As the dough is being forced, with great pressure,down towards the bottom of the receptacle, It passes over and around these wires, thus making the mysterious hole In a simple manner.Heat being applied the material contracts and preserves the hole intact.Sweeping Reductions THE MERCHANTS BANK OF CAN Ah A.Capital paid up, - $6,000,000 Reserve Fund - - $3,000,000 Head Office Montreal.-On Hulum c of— Dry Goods Board ok Hi hectors.ANDREW ALLAN, Esq Prorfideo* ItOBT.ANDERSON , Esq.Vice-Prun’deD* Hector Mackenzie.Esq.H.Montagu AIl**!.,E>q Jonat han Hodgson, Esq James P.Da won, Ei** : John Cas«ils, E-q.T.H.Dunn, Esq.8ir Joseph Hickson.GEORGE HAGUE.Esq., .(itnrral Mnnage JOHN GAULT.Esq .A HtU.General Manayet URANCllKS IN ONTARIO AND qi'KBKC : STOCK A» it mu*t be- sold immediately, Good assortuo-nt of White and Grey Sheeting-.Pillow rase Cotton, l^ace Curtain.-, White and Colored Crib and Bed Quilts, etc., etc.Belleville, j Berlin, Brampton, Chatham.Galt.!

and when he got on the plat form the first thing he saw was that trunk Hying down the whole lengfli of it at about twice tho speed of an ordinary trunk.It jumped off the end of the platform and fetched up against a big block of marble that was lying in the grass.The air was just full of samples and shirts and bottles and hair-brushes and such.The train men allowed that they had never seen sfTbh a complete smash since they had been railroading and, I consider it myself.one of the best pieces of professional work I ever did.The way of it was this: I hove that trunk out of the baggage car the minute the car reached the end of tho platform.The train was a long one, and moving middling fast at the time, and it was this that gave the trunk Its magnificent start down the platform.“Cy Truefit came along to where the splinters of his trunk were lying, and was so overcome with the sight, that he just sat down on the marble block and remarked to himself in a kind of low and thoughtful voice ‘Well I’ll l»e d—d!’ I sang out to him as the train started on again ‘That there iron don’t seem to work so very well after all !’ But Cy.didn't say anytning.He was thinking, and 1 don’t mind Haying that ho thought out a first-class scheme—that i«, It would have been If it had only worked.“I didn’t see anything of Cy.ft* a month, until one day, when my train stopped at West Tangiors.where Cy.lived, as I afterwards heard, i found a handsome coffin waiting to be put aboard the train.Now a days, when a coffin is sent by freight or express it Is always nailed up in a big packing Imx, but In those days handsome coffins were a sort of novelty in tho North-West» ami folk that could afford to own one never thought of concealing it in a packing-box MEN •ufferin?from dis* eases resulting from exow** an l error* of r>uth, do not DEroRK.after.despair.Toucan be I cured tyrth«nn«of PROF.HuBERT’aliRSToRA* ] TIVB IlKMKMBft.V rite for cire 'ar to TitOF.HI B1 ItT, U i 575.Post Office, MontfSRk Cifrreepvndnv* ttrictlvs.*/uUn(uU.grief showed his samples to all the business men in the town, and made some nnu-.ially good sales.“Tho next day, when my train came along., there was Cy.on tho platform with his coffin.Ho told mo that the funeral had been a brilliant sueces-, and that he was now going to take the remains down to >îMi-tansville, and settle them comfortably in the cemetery there.1 thought to my ?If that the man was running tho funeral business into the grouud, for one funeral is all that any one corpse is entitled to.according to my notion.However, 1 didn’t wish to interrupt Cy’s mourning by any remarks of my own, so I just called tho brakesman, and we got tho remains aboard the train.When we had got through, dropping the coffin on one of my feet and one of the brakesman's hands,and everything was comfortable (he brakesman said, ‘If those hero remains are any relation of yours, 1 wish for to say nothing; but if they ain’t none of your family’s I'll just remark that whoever's in that coffin inu^t have been filled up choke-full of lead, and serve lüm right.I don’t doubt that there have been lifty shot guns fired into that corpse, for it weighs four times what any healthy corpse ought to weigh.’ You see the man’s thumb was pretty well smashed, and in the circumstances he couldn’t have been expected to feel kindly towards the remains.“At Spartansville.Cy., as I was told by the station-master there, wanted to leave his mother-in law in tho baggage-room for tho night with free access to her, but.the station-master wouldn’t consent to it.So Cy.had to take her to the hotel.A friend of mine,who happened to be in the hotel at the lime, told me all about it, and he said he never saw a man so full of grief as Cy.seemed to be when he walked into the hotel with sixmen carrying the coffin after him.“After Cy.had registered his name he says to the clerk, “I should like to have that coffin placed in my room for the night.” “ ‘What’s in it F asked the clerk.“ ‘The remains of my lie loved wife’s mother,” says Cy., in a broken sort of voice.“ ‘That settles it,’ said the clerk.‘Sorry to disoblige you, but we can’t allow no remains in no room in ihL bouse.We’ll put your good lady out in the woodshed, where she’ll be perfectly comfortable ; but this ain’t no cemetery nor yet no undertaker's shop, and w» don’t furnish accommodation inside of tho hotel for anybody’s remains.’ “ ‘But,’ says Cy., ‘she was embalmed by the best ombalmer in this section, and there’s no earthly reason why I should n i have her in my room.She’ll give a deal less trouble than most of the women you take in.’ “ ‘I’ve said my say,' said the clerk.‘This is a hotel for live folks, and not for remains.If you don’t like our rules all you have to do is to leave.’ “Cy.stood reflecting fora minute, and then ho leans over and whispers to the clerk, who burst out laughing and said, *(), very well! That alters the case.Considering tho character of your remains I don’t mind letting them go into your room.’ And with that he calls half-a dozen porters, and they carry Cy’s mother-in-law up three pair of stairs; and pretty hard work they must have found it.“The next day hut one my train got to Spartansville an hour and a half late.You see the accommodation train had gone off the track down just below Spartansville through getting mixed up with a pair of oxen and a load of hay that was trying to cross the track ahead of it, so we had to lay up till the track was clear.A little while before we were ready to start I saw Cy.Truefit come on to the platform with his coffin following behind him on a truck.He seemed a lntJe astonish'd at swing me, and I didn’t mind letting him see that 1 was astonished to find that he hadn’t buried that coffin yet.What does all this mean.Cy.F says 1.‘Ain't you never going to get your remains comfortably under ground?’ “ ‘Couldn’t bury her at Spartansville,' said Cy.The cemetery was closed for repairs; so I’m taking her down to Smyrna where I’ve made arrangements to have the funeral to-morrow.“ ‘I never heard of closing *9 cemetery for repaint, ’ said I.'What kind of repairs do you meanf* “ 'Oh.whitewashing the tombstones and mowing the gra»».and »uch like.’ «ayi* he.‘They won’t he able to bury anybody in that « vine lory for a week.’ “Well, 1 concluded it wa*u't any bus! ness of mine h» w they managed thu Spartansville cemetery,«o I .-aid no more; but the brakesman and 1 we got th coffin into thu txtgguge car and oat on u to rest, for it seemed heavier than e\ar.‘ ‘That '«41 >w is playing a game on you,' said th« brakcMu.tn.“ * How’s that ?’ said 1.“ There ain’t no corpse in that coffin, says the brakesman.‘It weighs three times what any corpse would weigh, uu les* it wan Rarnum’s fat woman.Then again I œe that fellow laughing in hts sleeve when me and you were wrestling with that coffin.If he was a mourner he wouldn’t run the risk of being caught rejoicing in public.* “ ‘It is mighty curious how he keeps this coffin above ground,’ says 1.‘It’s mon* than a week now since he started to bury it, and he’s l>ocn riding all over the line ever since.“ ‘Where’s he going to take what he calls ‘the remains' to now?' asked the man.“ * Down to Smyrna,’ says 1.“ ‘There’s a pretty long platform | there said the brakesman.and if you and 1 were to give that c >ltin a twist just u:-the train strikes the platform, we would probably find out what’s in it.’ “ That wouldn’t ne showing fitting respect to the dead, ’ says I—-'that is, if there really is a dead woman in tin* coffin.’ “Dead woman be hanged!' says he.'Docs Truefit pre end that she’s eiubilm ed?’ “ ‘So he says.’ said I.“ ‘Well thou, gimme a screw-driver, and we’ll know the truth about this ycr affair inside of two minutes,' says the brakesman.“Hu went and borrowed a screw-driver from the engineer, and went to work te unserew the r.'ffin lid.Thera wasn’t as much remains in that coffin as there generally is of a m.in that’s blown up with dynamite.It was choke-full, as far a-we could see, of silks and all sorts ot goods, such a> Cy.was in the habit ol travelling with.We couldn't quite under stand how the tiling came to weigh u* much a> it did till we had partly unpacked it, and then we found that there wn> several hundred weight of lead pigs fa-toned to the bottom of tho coffin.This hurt iny feelings, for 1 saw at onco that ('y.hail put tho lead there .ju^f to make trouble for me or any other baggage master.“ ‘What do you say now ?’ says the brak small.“ ‘Say!’ said I.‘Why that I’ll sma-1 that coffin warn we get to Smyrna so that (’y.Truefit won’t find a piece of it bi-j enough for a toothpick.’ “ ‘And I’ll help you,’ says the man.‘We’ll just, gut her up on one end, ami when \vc get to the platform we’ll lit her out and set her going.1 only wish we could manage so as to let her bring up against Gy’s legs, but we can’t imvi o\ r li.ng bore to please us.’ Before we got to Smyrna everything was ready.We had loosened the screw of tho coffin .all round so that she could go to pieces all the more easy, and 1 greased the biggest end of her,so that she’d slide her level best.Then the brakesman and 1 got her on end close to the open d(R>r, and when we reached the platform and the train was still doing a goon fifteen miles an hour we launched her.You should have seen that coffin waltzing down the platform right through Mm middle of a gang of Dutch cmigrunt-and laying them out right and left.Mm went pretty near the wnolc length of tin platform before she lost her rotary mo tion.and when she did lose it she j i-: settled down for a good slide on In r greased end.There was a big elm tret close to the end of tin* platform, and tin coffin hit it- good and square, and wem into a million pieces, filling the air vvit.n t’y’s samples.The emigrants that hadn’t been bit went for those samples, aud b« fora Cy.could get out of the train every tiling small enough tie shoved under an emigrant coat had disappeared.“ ‘Sorry that your poor moiher-iu-law has met with this accident,’ says I to(’.v.* But transporting remains on tin* rail road is a mighty uncertain bnsincs I’ve thought all along that you’d betlci have hurled her where she died instead of carting her all over creation.’ “Cy.looked at me and then at hi-samples, such as were left, and then at me again, and made up his mind to taki it smiling.‘Well,’ says he, ‘I had the best of you while the game lasted.It was worth the whole cargo to see tin careful way you handled that there coffin.Why, man, I never had no mother-in law, nor yet no wife—that is, since 1 left the Fast.’ “It.was a middling smart game, and I’ll allow that it took mo in.But in tin nature of things it couldn’t last, and 1 calculate that it cost Cy.in tho end considerable more than it was worth.We remembered him on the road after that, and tho aucid.*nts that kept, a luuqienin; to his trunks would have discouraged pretty near any other man.’’ .tn I'ilahorat** Accessory.An elaborate accessory that transform-a simple bodice to something extremely dressy is accomplished by means of a pointed yoke of heavy lace that has great paste jewels set in the conspicuous circl«> ot its design, says tho Phiadolphia Time This yoke is finished with point under the ehin, and extends to the bust lint*, with a point out over each shoulder and with one in the small of the back.A pair of wide epaulettes are sot under tin shoulder points extend well out over the sleeves and are so long from front to ba< k that the points of the yoke are sut prêt tily between the edges of the epaulette.Just from beneath this point of contact between tho epaulette and yoke edges appear two straps of the heavily Jeweled lace.These hang to the belt over which they arc well bloused and under which they disappear.The straps corresponding in the back are crossed and drawn tight.The licit is of dose-drawn folds of the Velvet and the collar of tho pointed yoke is made of folded velvet to correspond, the shade being of the deepest tone of the jewels.Nothing could be more swagger than the effect of this “harness,” as » lab- rate accessories are being called, w«»rn over .*4 bodice with a bloused front, the loose folds appearing between the jeweled strap*.Such an affair costs too much to think of at the importers, but can be made effectively for very little and the money and time are well expended.the new shortening, like all other things nmst be rightly used if you wish the best results.Never, in any recipe, use more than two-thirds as much Cottolene as you used to use of lard.Never put Cot-tolene in a hot pan.Put it in when cold aud heat it with the pan.Be careful not to burn Cottolene.To test it, add a drop of water ;

tution in the country has shown such successful results.During the past year, some forty patients, not from Galt alone, ; but from all the surrounding country, had entered the institution for typhoid fever, | and up to the first of October of the present year, some thirty two typhoid | fever patients had been treated.All of these had left the hospital completely recovered except in one case, where the nurses had been overpowered and the j patient had jumped out of a window, caught cold, and as a consequence, died.This was a record they might well feel ! proud of, a record that could not be j surpassed, and reflected great credit on | both the medical and nursing staffs.The | work done at the hospital was a credit to the medical start'.All fatal cases had been the result of very acute forms of disease, and the hospital was deserving of the good name and record which it bore throughout the Dominion.Ex- President Warnock had said that wherever he had travelled, the Galt Hospital was held up as a great success.” It has been objected that Sherbrooke is not in need of further hospital accomodation because it is so near to the great institutions of Montreal.( >ur distance from Montreal is one hundred miles.Galt is only seventy miles from Toronto and is still nearer to the very important institutions of its neighboring towns, but there has been ample proof already that there was plenty of room for the Galt Hospital and its good work.The number of patients treated during the year was as follows : Males, Females.Total.No.in hospital on Oct.1, 1894.li 1 Admitted during year ending Sept.,'50, 1895.99 10; No.of births during year.2 The result in Montreal Centre last week is very encouraging to all whoare anxious 11 see the electorate of the province looking at provincial questions and the provincial management front a busiiiessstand-point.The force* of extravagance, under whatever party name (Conservative or Nationalist) which have brought Quebec into chronic financial straits, have ruled too long ; and the time has arrived when our representatives must be taught that promises of economy have to be fulfilled.Quebec is callable of great things if properly ruled and its taxation not made too burdensome.During the last ten years considerable progress has been made in scientific agriculture throughout the province, thanks to several educative forces, not the least of which have been the endeavors of a number of the Catholic clergy.This progress should not be retarded by the rolling up of a provincial debt, which will fall some time or other on the agricultural community, and it is as much to the intcests of the farmers that the Paris loan should be condemned as it is so the mercantile community of Montreal and elsewhere already directly taxed.be *p|Mtrent to every ore.If public libraries are a boon to every community and are important factors in the intellectual and moral development of the people, as is now universally admitted, then the more freely they are used and the less the restrictions, the greater the benefits, the same principle being applied to our public schools.That Di, 17.5 books were loaned in the year ending June .'50th, 1K95 shows that the library was appreciated ; that the circulation sltould fall to less than half upon the reiuiposition of a charge shows, not a lack of appreciation, hut that a charge is found onerous and results *iii depriving many of the use of the library who were b ;fore glad to avail themselves of it.It is the settled conviction of the Msn-agement that the library must return to the systeni of h ailing books free of charge to all residents as soon as possible and ’ this is the system practically universal everywhere.Economy has been carefully practiced ip every department during the past year and yet it has been iinp< ssible to reduce the debt one dollar or to make any additions of importance to the library.Thu institution cannot be conducted on less than the last years expenses and as the income has been exceptionally large and the same amount cannot be relied upon for the next year, more liberal aid must be obtained from the city and its residents.We need only repeat w hat has been heretofore said that no one has anyprivate interest or is deriving any financial benefit fr >m the Institution, as is shown by the Auditor’s report.No fair minded person will deny that the premises occupied which includes the Art Hall are worth from 8500 to SOtHI more than the exemption from taxation granted from the city No one has any private claim upon the property of the Union.It is a public institution conducted in the interests of the whole community and knows no distinction of class, religion or nationality, and the services of all the oliicers except the Curator and Librarian are given gratuitously The list of officers herewith is a repro sentative one.The Mayor of the city exoflicio is 1’resident ; the Chairman of the Protestant and Roman Catholic scho< 1 hoards are Trustees and members of the Library Committee ; and its accounts are audited by the City Auditor.In conclusion we appeal to all the community to unite in its support amt in urging upon the Council additional aid.We briefly refer to the several departments : Common sense is at least prevailing on the copyright question.Is is being recognized that the British government has been right in the matter and our own government (in spite of Sir Hibbert Topper’s heroics about our freedom to govern ourselves wrongly if we choose) has been right only so far as the interests of two or three publishers are concerned, but entirely wrong so far as the great mass of readers, the book trade and the Canadian authors are concerned.The Toronto Globe, Toronto Week, Montreal Witness and Principal Grant have each spoken out sensibly on the subject.The Canadian legislation w as very narrow, and we were surprised that such a well informed Liberal as Mr.Edgar should have supported it.interest ; and when the amount reaches ten dollars it is is deposited in any bank in this city the depoaitor may choose.This system thus avoids any large accumulation in the hands of the Union and it acts merely as a convenient channel of trails mission from the workmen to the bsuks of smaller sums than are usually deposited in the latter.The Entertainment and Lecture de-partuieiit is an exceedingly ditbcult one to carry on without loss, and great caution has been exercised.Yet the Union has been the means of providing good entertainments every year.In conclusion, we believe that reference to the various departments must convince any one th it this institution stands in vital relation to the best interests of the city and its residents and deserves the active support of all.Special acknowledgment is m tde of the gratuitous services of the retiring Sec.Tress.Mr.E.B.Worthington who his for the past two years tilled this position.t irtiuers and Committees for the year ending Se tembor JOtb IriiHi.Trustees.The Mayor of the City of Sherbrooke, ex officio, L.E.Panneton, M.P.P., 11.C.Cabana, H.D.Lawrence N.T.Dussault, C.H.Fletcher, C W.Cate, J.S.Mitchell, W.S.Dresser, S.F.Morey.President, L.E.Panneton, S ice Pres.C.11.Fletcher, Manager, S.F.Morey, Ass’t Manager, \V.S.Dresser, Secretary-Treasurer, C.W.Cate.Library Committee— H.C.Cabana, chairman, E Hargrave, L.E.Panneton, H.D.Lawrence, C.W.Cate.Reading Room Committee—II D.Lawrence, Chairmrn, J.A.Archambault Walter Blue, L.C.Belanger.Art Committee — C.H.Fletcher, Chairman, R.W.Heneker, Richard Smith, Lecture Committee N.T.Dussault, Chairman, J.M.Jenckes, A.S.McCaw, A.L.Parker, J.P.Wells.Natural H story Committee—W.S* Dresser, Chairman, W.A.Farwell, M.D., J.G.Walton, Capt.F A.Archambault.Finance Committee—S.chairman, J.S.Mitchell, N W.S.Dresser, C.W.Cate.S.F.Monev, Manager.VV.S.Dkkrseb Asst.Manager.Bennetts, ,J.F.Morey, T.Dussault THK I.IilKARY The Annual Meeting of the Library and Art Union.Now contains .‘5,li()7 books.151 were added the past year of which 100 were dot ations and 25 of those purchased were for the French section.To curtril expense the rebinding and repair of books has during the past year been practically discontinued, and in consequence many books have had to be withdrawn from circulation.The circulation and other particulars are shown by the following report of the Librarian for year ending September fiOth 1895 Bt 202 107 110 217 The number of patients discharged during the year was The number of deaths The numlier remaining Sept.30th, 1895.18 217 Only fourteen patients came from outside of thh county, hut out of the whole number treated, fifty two patients from the town of Galt and twenty six from the county of Waterloo were treated gratuitously.The town of Galt and the county of Waterloo contribute one thousand dollars each annually to the institution.and the Ontario government grant for the pa-t year was 81,364.IK).That, of course, is very générons support compared to that received by the Sherbrooke Protestant Hospital, outside of private contributions.The only grant, so far, is 8500 from theprovincial government, and nothing what ever from the municipalities.Something, surely, may be looked for from Sherbrooke and surrounding municipalities in the way of aid for the annual expenses of management on the basis which obtains in Ontario, namely, the treatment of a certain number of the patients from those municipalities gratuitously.The only question of difficulty now before the Governors of the Sherbrooke protestant Hospital is thst of being assured of edequste funds for the annual The Library A Art Union has completed its fifteenth year, and the annual reports which have recorded its history have shown each year some progress.To-day it is unquestionably the most important public institution in this city.The Library, Reading Room, Art Gallery, Museum, Amusement Room, Saving Fund and Lecture Department biar the closestrelationtoeverypha.se of life in our city, and the future importance of this institution if loyally supported and built up can hardly be overestimated.Since it was founded thegrowth and increase of such institutions in the towns and cities of America and Europe have been simply astounding.During the past year some account of this movement has been laid before the citizens, but our space will not admit of reproducing the i statistics hero.In Ontario nearly every town of impur-tance has its free public libraray support- ] ed out of general funds.In the States j immediately South of us these Institu- | \ tions are almost universal ; and annual appropriations of $20i)tl or more, are not uncommon from cities no larger than Sherbrooke.Boston is just completing its public li- j ! hrary building at a cost to the city of 83,000,001).Abroad the same interest is1 ! everywhere noticeable.One who has not ! kept informed upon this movement simply cannot realize its in.portance.We [ emphasize this that it may be clearly un-! derstood that neither tin.; city nor any other can afford to ignore it,and certainly when they have the foundation of an institution sinh as the Library »V Art Union they cannot afford to allow it to die through indifference and lack of support.These remarks are prompted by the feeling that giving all credit to those public spirited citizens who have from its formation contributed so faithfully to its support, after all its present position is insignificant compared with what it might have been if our Council had given it the same liberal support accorded to similar institutions elsewhere, and if our churches Imth Protestant and Roman Catholic and all who are active in good work had realized more fully its importance and possibilities and had concentrated more , of their effort upon its enlargement.The past year has been an tnqiortaiit one in the history of the Union, by reason I of the effort made to bring its c laims ; more prominently before the City Council ! and thereby obtain increased aid in keeping with its importance to the city.This • effort was supported by the largest petition of ratepayers and residents ever presented to the Council (over 7tM) of w hich one-hslf were ratepayers.In connection with this effort all the Clergy of the City both Protestant and Roman Catholic expressed by letters which were published, their hearty approval of the Institution.Whatever the reasons for the actions of the majority of the Council in refusing the petition, this refusal forced upon the Trustees the necessity of taking a backward step in returning to the charge of a special fee for taking books away from the | library.The resultsaa shown by the Librarian s report are, that while the books were free the circulation rose from 420 in Oct.1892 to 1800 in March 1894, an average ' for the last twelve months prior to the change, of 1348 per month.Since the 1st of July last, when the change was made, it has dropped to an average for the three months of 589 per month.That this has been unfortunate must N umber of books loaned during the year compared with last ye ar.( )ctober 18!) 13 1020 1894 1221 November “ 1017 “ 1321 December tt 1150 “ 1310 January 1894 1207 1895 1434 February “ 1205 “ 1517 March “ 1402 1801 April “ 1208 tt 1518 May it 1195 tt 1380 J une “ 1134 “ 1295 July “ 1151 “ 843 August “ 1139 t i 509 September “ 1080 “ 415 14,034 14,570 151 volui nes have been added to the Judge Brook's resignation.of library classified ss follows : Fiction 104 F rench 25 General works 15 History 4 Biography 3 The following donations have been received.From A.T.Nourse Esq., Life and Work of the Rt.Hon.Sir John Thompson, by J.C.Hopkins.From J.R.Jackson Esq., “Life Cardinal Pole’’ by F.G.Lee.From Robt A Y’oung Esq., “Life W.T.Sherman” by W.F Johnson.From Mrs.L.B.Lawford, “Punch” for 1895 and five vols of fiction.From H.D.Clark Esq., of Brompton Falls, seventy three vols of fiction.From E.H.Clean Esq., three vols of fiction.From Mrs.\V.A.Smith, two vols of fiction.From M iss T.M.White, two vols of of fiction.From From fiction.T.Hogle E sq., 2 vols of fiction.Anonymous friends, 9 vols of Mary L.Wilson, Librarian.THK KK MUM.ROOM Has been kept fully up to the high standard which has always made it a credit to the city and the subject of favorable comment from visitors and the Canadian Press.THK ART OALLKRY retains its interest to residents and is developing an increased interest in and appreciation of the beautiful.Three "inex pensive pictures have been added, viz : a colored photogravure of a beautiful picture of horses by the noted painter Schrever ; a fine etching of “The Cornfield'' by Constable, the famous English landscape painter, and a mezzotint engraving of a portrait by Romney.These are not only interesting pictures hut are examples of three of the most important processes of reproduction and therefore interesting in this respect.The Committee tire not unu indful of the greater importance of procuring goitd original work, but since that is imptesible, owing to the present financial condition, they believe reproductions of this character will prove of value.THE NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM has made some few acquisitions and plans are maturing for a more systematic display of the mineral resources of the Eastern Townships.THE AMUSEMENT ROOM was well patronized during the winter months by young men who seemed to appreciate the advantages of an orderly pleasant place in which to spend their leisure hours.During the past year a Savings Fund has been inaugurated by which deposits can lie made with the Curator of ten cents and upwards not exceeding the total of ten doilars, at hours and in the evening when workmen are at liberty, but when lianks and jsist office are closed The system under which this is done is not only simple and effective but guards against any loss either to the Union or to the depositor.As soon as the latter ac-camulatea one dollar it may begin to liear Yesterday being the last day of the Term of Unquote, at the opening of the Court, Mr Justice Brooks addressed the members of the Baras follows : Gentlemen,— I have asked you to meet me to tiny that I might make to you an announcement which may probably have been anticipated by you, but I bave considered it right that, owing to the friendly relations which have always existed between us, that I should now, as I have always endeavored to do in matters affecting the administration of justice in this district, first take you into my confidence and that it was better that the statement which I have to make should be made to you personally.I am sending to day to the Minister of Justice, for reasons and upon terms which he has declared satisfactory, my resigna tion as Judge of the Superior Court of Quebec, and this is, in all probability the last time that I shall meet you under the present relations.The causes whieh have led me to take I this course are well known to you all.In May last, in writing to the Department id Justice, I informed the Minister that while I hoped to be able to resume my duties after the vacation, in justice to myself for the future, 1 must urge most strenuously upon him the necessity of furnishing assistance, which should bo of a permanent nature in carrying on the work of the District, which had been for a long period, more arduous than should be required of one Judge and suggesting, as no other means could be adopted at the time, the appointment of an assistant Judge.To this I received an unfavorable reply 1 had in the meantime as you are aware, written to your Bâtonnier stating to him that 1 was willing to take any course which would be in the interest of the Bar and the ' ' c.You, gentlemen, have been for several years urging upon the Department of Justice at Ottawa, as well as upon the Government at Quebec, by various resolutions, the necessity for permanent aid in the work of the District, but without avail.In August 1 again wrote the Department at t Htawa, urging the same thing, and in September your Bâtonnier and Secretary had a personal interview with the Minister at Ottawa upon the subject.I notified the Minister of Justice that I could not undertake alone for the future all the work of the District and, being informed that he was determined not to ask Parliament for any provision for assistance here, and declined to grant the just and reasonable demands made ill regard to the administration of Justice here, 1 have decided upon the course which I have stated to you.There is one subject 1 wish to impress upon you ; two things arc required in this District, assistance in the Judge's work, and a new Uourt House with greater conven ence.Both, 1 trust, you may be successful in obtaining.It is now, gentlemen, forty-one years yesterday since 1 was admitted to the Bar of this District, and 1 was for 28 years actively engaged in the practice of our ciminion profession.Naturally there have been great changes.Not one of the ten members of the Bar is now upon the tableau of this District, all except two.1 think, have passed away.Not one of the Judges then upon the Bench in this Province is now alive.During my practice at the Bar, 1 think that I may truly say that the most friendly and cordial relations always existed between my confreres and myself.Thirteen years ago on the 2nd of November next I entered upon my duties as Judge in this District, and since that time the same friendly relations have continuel!, and that has made my task easier.The members of this Bar have conducted the business of the District with a spirit of courtesy and good feeling amongst ^themselves which has been remarkable, and they have acquired a well earned reputation for ability and skill throughout the Province.1 have to thank you, gentlemen, as well as all the officers connected with the Courts in this District, for the uniform kindness and courtesy and consideration with which you hate, throughout the last 13 years, treated me.hen 1 entered upon my duties I asked your kind assi-t-ance to aid me in the performance of my duties : this has been given me most cordially, and 1 thank you one and all.Under these circumstances it cannot lie otherwise than painful for me to sever my connection with you, but at the same time 1 must confess to a feeling of relief from the constant and unremitting lalxirf imposed upon the judge of this District.I have tried, gentlemen, todo my duty; no one can do more tlian that.If 1 have failed, it has been from lack of ability, | not other wise.Again, gentlemen,I thank you for your unvaryil g kindness, and I tru-t that the same friendly relations will continue 1 through life.1 shall always Is glad to meet you, one ami all, in remembrance of old times.Mr Mulrenia, the Bâtonnier of the Bar, then presented the lolh W'ng address : — To th*' HonoKltjle Ml.J list n e Brooks, Hosoked and Dear bin,— It devolvt s upon rue as Bâtonnier of the rit-Fran-cis Section of the Bar, to express the great regret which ail its members teel on learning that the condition ot your health has forced upon you the necessity of resigning the high office, which you have so acceptably fiiied for the List thirteen years during ail of which perils! the pl> sant relations which have alwavs existed in this District between the Bench and the Bar have suffered no intern ption.All the Members of this Section appreciate the laborious and painstaking manner in which the enormous Judicial work of this Dist rict has been performed during your administration and they regret that the excessive labor and anxieties, which it has entailsd’ should have hud such an effect upon your strength as tocompelle your retirement.They are hopefull that the decision which you have arrived at under the advice of your Physician and friends will bring to you in the repose of private life tliat return of health and strength, which all your friends both in the Profession and in the Laity hope you may soon obtain.Inserveing our relations I am sure I express the universal sentiments of this Section when I say we wish you many years of comfort and happiness and I hope that our profession and more particularly the members of the Bar of St Francis will always retain a warm place in your niemoty.On behalf of the Bar of the Section of the District of St Francis.H.\V.Mtlvkna, Bâtonnier.Sherbrooke, October 31st, 1895.Mr.W.White, Q.C., then addressed the Judge as follows : May it Please Your Honor.— It is to me a somewhat melancholy privilege that 1, a member of your old section of the Bar, am enabled in my capacity of Batonnier-General to express on behalf of confreres throughout all the Province the sincere regret which it is certain will be universally felt at your retirement from a position you have so long filled with great acceptance, not only to the members of the profession, but to the entire community.It will ever remain to y»u a source of deep gratification that during your long term of official service you have enjoyed an uninterrupted confidence in your administration of the responsible duties whichyou have so imp irtially and ably performed.You have, indeed, every reason to fed assured that the laity as well as ! the profession, in this large judicial Dis- j trict of St.Francis ,will ever greatly ap- j preciate the benefits of you zealous and | I painstaking labors, and will long remem- i lier the period from 1882 to 1895, in which the administration of justice in I their midst was confided to your hands.: Their sense of obligation w ill be enhanced , by the reflection that the task was of such a character as to have become a burthen I on your health, and, realizing this, they will earnestly hope that the repose you are about to seek « ill bring back to you a fair degree of vigor and strength in the autumn of life, and they «ill continue to «•ish for you a prolonged Indian summer full of many bright happy comforts, and of all those solid enjoyments with which the declining years of a well spent, horn ra’ 'e life may well be filled.Having been notified of your kindly wish to meet the members of the Bar this morning, and having the opportunity of being present.I felt 1 would be neglecting a duty of my official position if I failed to be here to extend to you on behalf of all our confreres in the Province, ECTRIC BEILLS INSTALLED .AND REPAIRED.The Sherbrooke Gas & Water Co : G.F.Olivier.HIGHLY IMPORTANT BOSTON STORE AUCTION SALE.To The Ladies !

We gratefully realizad how very far we eastern folk were “hors du combat ” \ marked feature of the winter is the deep snow which covers the ground at from 1 to 3 and 4 feet on a level.As to the drifts, they cover f nces and obstruct the highway, frequently to such an extent, that driving becomes almost an impossibility ; upsets are therefore of very common occurrence and it is wonderful how indifferent the municipal authorities seem to be, that the roads should be so kept as not to render them dangerous.The frequency of the snow fall is also a marked feature of the climate, as it often descends every day consecutively for a month.When a wind arises—at a velocity of forty miles an hour the effect may be imagined.The air becomes so completely tilled with the flakes that one can scarcely see a yard ahead.A ther- died for their country, and is followed by a volley which brings the proceedings to a close.Business is suspended during the entire day while the amount of hunting displayed in the streets shows that love for one’s country does net necessarily depend upon the antiquity of that country.An interesting l«sly of soldiers pointed out to us among those taking part in the procession were the “liilierinaii Rifles,” a company formed for the purpose (we are imformed) of being ready to extricate Ireland from the “Thraldom of the British Yoke." We Usnsdians naturally regarded them as Fenians.To the honor of the American government let it be known that, so far, that had not been incorporated into the state militia, al though prominent in public processions.A uniform of black and bright green, in which the latter color largely predominated, marked out these sons of Krill in a manner.When decoration day but these cases are rare comparatively.is oliserved ill every hamlet, village and The very tender age at which young town through >ut the length and breadth children are placed upon the platform to ! of the entire Republic, we realize what a recite or “speak their pieces” (as they place ill its history was that occupied by say here) is truly wonderful.Little the late civil war, and also the never todlers of two and three years of age are ^ dying memories awakened by its anniver-trained to perform in public ;

but not even r r.urop In th natural that furs ahold abound because of their necessity ; but such is not the case.Small cloth caps, with peaks, form the ordinary head-gear of men, while a fur cap ou a woman is a most exceptional sight.Felt hats of a form that render warmth impossible, satisfy apparently the feminine mind, while a couple of yards ot barege veiling wound around seems to paliate the conscience of the indiscreet wearer.Neuralgia must be courted thus, most successfully.Only the more affluent appear to be the possessors of furs, and in this respect a stiiking contrast is presented to Canada.It is true that a buffalo coat or one of mink [ most unmistakable now and then looms uihui one's visions, we consider that -THE CELEBRATED- 1 £s Ohio Cutter Divert, from Salem, Ohio, with soft Fly Wheel and all the latest improvements Also Hand Cutters from «6.00 and upwards, flail and insjiect goods and get prices as we are bound not to lie undersold Rememlxir we have a full line of CARRIAGES in stock and prices way down.Latimer & Bean, 221 Wellington St., Sherbrooke, this had any effect in unsealing her lips.After numerous useless admonitions, on the part of the lady in charge of the programme, the little debutante had to be removed, and we thought her failure a strong protest against such early development.Conventions of all kinds abound in this “land of the free.” These are usually held on Saturday to enable teachers and others connected with schools to participate in them.The “ abroad ’ may be a very popular personage | elsewhere but the “xr/ioo/m/sfr home is by no one surpassed in importance.Not only is her presence at conventions etc., sufficiently desirable to date them accordingly, fiut she is politely entertained by the community in which her lot is cast.The perfect ease with which ladies preside on a public platform, is most reassuring to their more timid eastern sisters.At a semi-annual gatlier-mg of Congregationalists, we witnessed the wife of the paster of the church conduct the devotional meeting at least six ministers (lier husband among ti e number) occupying seats in the pews.There was no visible embarassinent on her part no apology as it were for her position, but a calm concentration of purpose, which performed weli.the reading of tiie Scriptures, giving out.a hymn, and engaging in prayer.Later on in the day, when papers were read on various subjects, an equally large number was presented by the ladies ; nor were they a whit behind, in ability, those of the sterner sex.A capital plan in vogue here for the entertainment of a convention is to billet all delegates at a firs*-class hotel thus enabling residents to attend every session without being deterred therefrom by the entertainment of the visitors.No anxiety was evident concerning the footing of the bill, and most freely were tickets distributed entitling their possessors to free entertainment.Businesslike dispatch distinguished every exercise ; in fact if we might be pardoned the criticism, it seemed to us that so short a time was allotted each subject that nothing ceuld be done satisfactorily.Fewer themes, and more thought*, would to us at least have been more beneficial.To describe this section of country without referring to the peculiar expressions of speech which pass current, would be to omit one of its most amusing features.To harness a horse, is to “hitch up.” To put rhubarb in a pie is to use “pie plant” or “pie timber.” Instead of our “certainly” as a mode of acquiescence the western reply is “sure.” To be hurried is to be “crowded” False teeth are “store teeth,” while every stone is a “rock.” Not the slighest drawl, however, which is io often a feature of New England speech is noticeable, and its absence is a matter for congratulation.Sunday schools appear to be the favourite form of religious gatherings, and are generally held at the close of the morning service.So many more adults attend than are to be found listening to the sermon which precedes, that one cannot help wondering irhy it should be so much more popular.We have counted eleven people only at the morning service which was followed immediately after wards by Sunday school n inhering over sixty.Such a preponderance in favor of the latter speaks volumes in favor of its attractiveness, but 1 also reflects sadly on the religious zeal, which cannot rouse itself sullicieiitly early to be in the house where “prayer is wont to be made” at half-past ten a.in.That no duty has been neglected by failing hi do so, would scarcely be inferred from the calm nonchalant air with which many officials of the Sunday school saunter into their places at twelve a.m.We should have admired them much more had they first occupied their respective places in the divinely appointed sacrifice of prayer and thanksgiving Hospitality is practised under rather different forms than with us.Invitations are fewer owing in a measure, we presume, to the numerous forms of public entertainment which are constantly taking place.Socials, lectures, concerts, spelling matches, literary parties, where each guest represents some author, are constantly on hand, while dances of every description and card parties are tendered to the volatile portion of the community.The most remarkable entertainment, however, (and one which it is to be hoped was unique of its kind) was the combination of grave and gay- sacred and secular, -on the evening of Good Friday.St.George’s Day lieing about that time, one half of the programme was devoted to was almost out of the question.On the following morning, in the court house square of a neighboring town, hundreds assembled to hear the reading of the Declarations of Independence which is annually rehearsed in their oars.As we listened to the enumeration of the misdeeds of George the Third,as for instance “he has plundered our seas, ravaged our coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of ourpeoplo.” We could not help thinking what a pity to recapitalate the misdoings of a king who, for seventy-five Iwolmaster ! years, lias been slumbering in bis grave Surely “raison tl ttre” of the American at S Republic is not dependent upon this annual rehearsal of ancient British misrule! The effect is most evident, viz.to lire the blood, especially of the younger portion of the population, with an antipathy to everything British.Would it not be wiser, kinder and more in keeping with the general advance of the great Republic to let the past go with all its soreness to both sides and to cultivate kindly feeling to that nation whoso broad dominion touches its shores.An oration by a prominent politic! »n, in which a good deal of lauding of everything American was a marked feature, brought the proceedings to a close.A parade of the troops belonging to the state militia of that section, filled the programme for the afternoon and gave an opportunity of beholding the effect of the “blue and the grey.” The slouch hats worn, although not military looking, are certainly most sensible when the thermometer is eighty in .he shade.Military tactics are at least to the uninitiated pretty much the same in appearance all the world over.A brilliant display of fireworks in the evening brought the day, so looked forward to, to a close, leaving many pockets more empty than when it began ; the money tills of many saloon keepers wonderfully replenished, and the patriotism of the visiting Canadian greatly increased.mometer varying from six to thirty degrees below zero affords variety of temperature, and when the latter point | is reached, accompanied by wind, no amount of clothing is ton much.Shawls enveloping the head are no uncommon sight and although far from elegant in appearance they are extremely comfortable Dogs are largely utilized by boys in drawing them over the snow.Harnessed to sledges in which proudly sit the youthful drivers these little ‘teams’’ present a curious appearance ;

illustrated.A man hailing from Compton visited our town last spring on several occasions and always carried a large bible with him wherever he went.He visited Coaticook again this week and instead of having his bible with him he had a gun, which he carried with equal grace into every place that he had occasion to visit.We hear that a man from the north ward who has not at all times been a total abstainer, took a freak so to speak and without saying a word to anyone he started for a gold cure unbeknown to his family and it was only after the family had been notified by the manager of an institution of this kind that they knew of his whereabouts.It is needless to say, however, that if there is any virtue in this treatment that the party will get the full good effects of it for “Ben” needs all the good things there are going Last Tuesday morning a farmer by the name of Fritz Thomas living about three miles from Coaticook was found dead in a mill pond and at first it was supposed that he had accidentally fallen in and had been drowned but on removing the body from the water it was found that he had taken carbolic acid before falling into the water.The Coroner was notified ami held an inquest on Wednesday and the finding of the jury was to the effect that the deceased came to his death by his own acts while laboring under temporary insanity brought on by financial difficulties.The funeral took place on Thursday and was largely attended.His family have the sympathy of a large circle of friends.One of our young men seems to have got himself into some difficulty by either a lack of judgment or otherwise.He was in business and sold out to other parties and it appears did not have suffi cient funds to |>ay in full he, however, did pay a part of his creditors in full and left some of his neighbors out in the cold ami when they asked for their share, he didn’t reply to them with the utmost courtesy, but rather on the line of a defiant air and as he was about to leave the country he was arrested on a capias taken out by one of his local creditors and at present writing is in jail in Sherbrooke, though we believe his friends are to make an effort to secure his release.The young man referred to has heretofore enjoyed a good reputation and we hope he will be able to make such arrangements as will re-instate him in public confidence.How to get “Sunlight”

thoughts are with you, though 1 am unable to attend your jubilee celebration.The old name of your locality was “Smith Mills.” Hollis Smith (who afterwards moved into .Sherbrooke, and trailed there and became M.P.) owned buildings which are still standing near the new bridge, but are sumunoed and dwarfed by other structures.The old bridge, known as the “Wyman Bridge,” crossed some distance up the stream, and not far from the old grave yard in wliich Henry Learned was huried beside “Lovy” his wife.The long-abandoned road to Sherbrooke may still lie traced to the water’s edge, and determines the site of the bridge.The bridge a wooden one —was called by Gosse “our bridge.” Gosse’s farm was bordered on one side by the old Sherbrooke road and fronted by “the village road” (i.o.the road to Compton, passing by the Vernon place.) “The church” in those days was the old “Ciiion Church*’ which is still standing about a mile and a half from East Hatley then called “Charlestoi .” I’lie most notable figure in the past history of Waterville and Compton County has been the above mentioned Philip Henry Gosse, naturalist.Gosse was born at Worcester, England, on the 6th of April, 1810.in 18*J7 he was engaged as clerk for Slade, Klson, Harrison A Co., of Carboneau, Newfoundland.(Bishop Bond in his early days was engaged in a like capacity m the slave colony) He accompanied Mr.and Mrs.G.E.Jacques to Canada in June, l8Jr>, and purchased the farm of which I have already spoken.In the summer he worked on his land and in the winter he taught the village school at Compton.The people of Compton were wont to speak of him as “that crazy Englishman, who goes about picking up bugs.” He was at this time composim Ins first work “The Canadian Naturalist.” He .sold out in March, 18M8, and went to Alabama, Cnited States, and afterwards ti Jamaica and returned to England in 18J9.In 1840 “The Canadian Naturalist’ was pub- ly-lished.Van Voorst gave the author one hundred pounds sterling for the work.This was the beginning of Gosse’s rise in life.“The Birds of Jamaica” appeared in 1845, and “A Naturalist’s Sojourn in Jamaica.” His “Rambles of a Naturalist on the Devonshire Coast” was published now reside, to my childish mind constituted “The Village,” a* it was in those day*.Of course there were many more residents, and at the tune of my marriage in 1850, many new industries bad sprung up, and many enterprising people had come in who gave the place quite a business aspect.Since my father’s death and the *ale of the old home 1 have only visited the place once.Being now' seventy two and very feeble I may never again see it, but 1 take pleasure in hearing of its prosperity, the growth of the church and the ad va; uent of old friends.Yours tr-iljr, Lr< RETIA
