consideration by both the Federal and Provincial Governments, I desire to once more to call attention to the situation of affairs in the judicial districts of St Francis and Arthabaska in the Eastern Townships.These districts, as at present consti* tuted, are geographically too extensive, and the costs to litigant* are consequently too expensive.Instead, therefore, of appointing an additional assistant judge at Sherbrooke, let a new judicial district be formed, which will include all the County of Richmond (excepting the Township of Stoke),and include therein the Townships of Durham and Kingsey, and make the town of Richmond the chief-lieu of said district.This would relieve the present Sherbrooke ‘congestion,’ and reduce by about one-half, the now judicial costs to all concerned.E T.Sir Adolphe Chapleau, whoae health has been causing hia friends some anxiety for the past few days,was comparatively better on Tuesday, and took advantage of thia welcome change to receive the ritee

The tramp ceased speaking.The glass fell from his nerveless fingers and shriv-ered into a thousand fragments on the floor.The swinging doors pushed open and shut again, and when the little group about the bar looked up the tramp was gone.—AVtc Orleans Picayune.THE KIND YOD NEED Tht!

cheet-e on this side and Ms.in Liverpool for finest old cheese.Instead of selling down to 80s, however, it has sold up to 45s in Liverpool, and in the place of declining to 5c here, it advanced to 8$ to 8jc for old cheese.The season of 1898 and 1899 has commenced, and most of the factories are busy on the now make, with a good supply of milk.Farmers in the Glengarry section state that the flow of milk is large for the season,and reports from other districts in Eastern Ontario are to the same effect, so that a material increase in receipts may be expected shortly.The few straggling lofs that h ivo been received thus far for sale in this cby have sold at 7|c to 8c for white and 8cto 8Ac for colored.A few lots of Northern New York State cheese have, it is said, been sold for Montreal account at equal to 8c and 8j c laid down here in bond for through shipment.Advices from both east and west of Toronto state that a number of factories are sti 1 turning out butter that will during the next week or two chvnge their machinery for cheese making and then the production may be said to be in ful.blast.The exports of cheese from this port the week ending May 7th, 1898, were 8.421 boxes, as compared with 7,943 boxes for the corresponding week last year.What Castoria is Dr.Samuel Piteher** prescription for Infinite anil Children.It contains neither Opium, Morphine nor other Nareotio

NORTH HRITiaH A MERCANTILE PETITION TO RAISE THE B AILING ON COMMERCIAL STREET BRIDGE.The question of raising and strengthening the railing on the bridge across the Magog on Commercial Street will no doubt be up for discussion at the next meeting of the City Council.A petition is now in ciicuiat on and is being numerously signed, praying that the city do this.There is no question but that some steps should bo taken to remedy this.In the first place the railing is too low, and is of too slim a structure to withstand any pressure, and in the second if a substantial railing was added it would not only be a preventative against against accident but would also add considerably to the appearance of the bridge.We trust the City Fathers will look into the matter and grant the request of
