he has ambition to rise in the force and only asks a fair chance.McLean says his father is still living at the age of 82 and also his mother at 74.His grandfather was 94 when he died and his grandmother 102, truly a long-lived family.McLean stands 6 feet 1 inch and weighs 1901bs.Spider Lake.News, like sunshine, is a scarce article, and is in demand.The weather continues wet and cold.Everything is backward, even the sportsmen, few as yet having been here.Moose, car-ribou and deer appear very plentiful.Whether they are deserting part of Maine or not is not yet known, but it is known that the deer are deserting certains portions of Maine for reasons not accounted for.Mrs.Meade has been sick for some time.The M.F.and Game Club have deposited seme land locked salmon in Upper Spider River, furnished by the U.S.Fish Commissioners____We are glad to see the stand taken by the Sherbrooke Gazette in its editorial of May 30th.Although it is never right to countenance wrong, still \u201cto err is human,\u201d and many a man who has tried to come back to the path of duty has, because he has|once gone astray, been shoved further down the hill, and never able to regain what he has lost.Methinks often times that there is a broad, a very broad field for missionary labor in our own country.East Hatley- Local news is scarce.The Methodist Church has been repainted and is much improved.Mr.Dunnett, Pro.Organizer of the Royal Templars has lately organised a Beneficiary Degree of that society with 11 charter members and a prospect of more.Mr.Dunnett gave a gospel address in the Methodist Church on Sunday evening last, also one a few weeks since, both of which were highly appreciated.Mr.John A.Nicholls is to lecture here on Friday evening.There is talk of postponing the temperance pic-nic advertised for July 1st on account of the military demonstration at Compton on the same day.Whenever the pic-nic takes place it is proposed to have an executive meeting of the County W.C.T.U.Seven ladies from this place attended the County Convention of the W.C.T.U.held at Fitch Bay and report an enjoyable time.A strawberry festival is being arranged for by the Methodist Ladies Aid.It will probably be held about the middle of next week.Miss Hettie Curtis of Danville is visitiug friends here,^ she will return on Monday.Miss Katie Putney graduated in music and received her diploma at the closing exercises of Stanstead College this week.North Hatley.The annual town meeting of the W.C.T.U.was held in the church here on Wednesdy 4th inst., and was well attended.The day was unpleasant and some of the officers failing to attend it was perhaps not quite the success we had hoped for.East Hatley and Massawippi were well represented; reports on the different departments were read, and some beneficial results attained.Several of the L.E.L.members were present and with music, singing, recitations etc., helped to pass an enjoyable hour bearing testimony to the effective work being done in that direction.Dr.Cadieux of N.Y., who was expected to be present and lecture in the evening failed to put in an appearance which caused some disappointment.By the aid of the new Road Machine our bad roads are being speedily improved, being drawn by six heavy horses owned by Peter Fleury u , of Katevale.Mr.and Mrs.E.Farmer are home from Farnham for a short visit.Mrs Pratt (Universalist) of West Concord Vt., preached on Sunday eve, 7th inst to a full house.Mr.E.Howe, a son of A.Howe is home from Laconia, N.H., and is very ill indeed.He is being attended by Dr.Leavitt of East Hatley.At the last meetihg of the Far-mer\u2019s Club it was resolved, that at the next meeting a question should be brought up for discussion foreign to farming.Said meeting to be held on Tuesday evening June 24th.The question will be \u201cWhich has done the most to civilize the world, Christianity or Science ?\u201d A general invitation is extended to clergymen and professional men.The hope is expressed to see a goodly number from the West Compton Club also.Windsor Mills.SHERBROOKE.BKLANGPIR.ROBERTSON Farm for Sale.\u2014 Poll No.1 ipplj to H A.igra^ou A^bi >«t DESIRABLE i** K*«t* rn T own Hherr.rooke, con-Khi of which rtj I The farm ia well ou it, anJ is in i, Boat-office, etc.For further par-NS, K*q., Uovtm-rbrooke, ie.tl-15 | Lennoxviile\u2014 Poll No.G \u201c\t7 Orfurd\u2014 Poll No.8 PROPERTY FOR SALE.rpHAT 46 ISIRABLE PROPERTY «itnsted at cr of Moore and JUiaabetb street*, r a large lot of land with a Double ouae thereon, (*ix room* each), and a good rental ;

That\u2019s what she said.But afterwards I see Mis\u2019 Barber, and she told me that her Mariar met Serinthy Ann Gribbin down to the post-office yesterday, and in the course o\u2019 the conversation she let out that they was goin\u2019 ter have refreshments, cake and coffy, and now, if they be, they\u2019ve got ter give us time ter eat \u2019em, hain\u2019t they 1 Tess we put \u2019em in our pockets ter carry home 1 I shouldn\u2019t wonder if the deacon\u2019s wife misunderstood ; she\u2019s kinder hard o\u2019 bearin\u2019 anyway.\u201d I\u2019d been thinkin\u2019 the matter over carm and candid, and when Mis Hackett got done, I says, \u201cMia\u2019 Hackett, let other folks dew as they\u2019re a min\u2019 ter about this ere party ; less you\u2019n me use our common senses.Common sense is better n Boston ettykett, or any other kind o\u2019 nttykett,\u201d says I.\u201cNow, it says on Ulus card, which is calkerlated ter be afU invite to a party\u201d (here Mis Hack-etR smiled sarcastic), \u201cit says \u2018from 3 to 0|,\u2019don\u2019t it ?\u201d \u201ciündoubtedly it does read thus and so,\u201d stays Mis\u2019 Hackett.\\V>H,\u201d 1 continuers, \u201cI don\u2019t see how we can be fur out o\u2019 the way if wer\u2019re tkere punctewal at 3 o\u2019clock, and leave at G o\u2019clock sharp.It seems ter me that would be strickly \u2019cordin\u2019 ter the terms of the invite, if not cordin\u2019 to etikett.Hey ?\u201d says 1.\u2018Yes, yes, I think so, sartin,\u201d answers Mis\u2019 Hackett.\u201cThat per-cession business must \u2019a been all a mistake.Mis\u2019 Gribbin wouldn\u2019t have face ter ask us ter leave our work and take the trouble \u2019o dressin\u2019 up jest ter go over t fie re and pass in one door and out- o\u2019 -t\u2019other.Of course not, t\u2019ain\u2019t reasonable,\u201d says she.The next day was Sunday, and everybody was out too meetin\u2019, and I\u2019m afeared there was more thinkin\u2019 about Mis\u2019 Gribbin\u2019s \"At Home\u201d than there was about the sermon.But Parson Alden, dear old soul, seein\u2019 us all so much more wide awake than usual, preached oncommon lively and arnest, and I heard him remark to Deacon Laton, goin\u2019 out o' meetin\u2019 that he did \u201chave faith ter believe we was on the threshold of a powerful revival, for never in his durin\u2019 experience had he preached to a more interesteder and wide awake congregation than what he had that day 1\u201d I felt shamed and conscience-srait enough, and I made up my mind on the spot that the dear old man shouldn\u2019t never have no more cause ter complain of me nor my folk» for not keep-in\u2019 awake, if there was any vartue in cayann pepper losengers and hunch-in\u2019s.(I\u2019m dretful apt to drowze in meetin\u2019 myself, and Hannibal ginerally \u2019lows ter put in half an hour\u2019s good sound sleep during sermon time.) When we got home, Hannibal told me how the men-folks had talked over the matter of the invitations, out in the horse-sheds at noon time, and had \u2019pinted a meetin\u2019 at John Russell\u2019s house for a Monday night, ter take a vote, whether or no they should resent the omission of the Mister as an insult, or jest stay to home and mind nothin\u2019 about it, or go, or what ?And every man had agreed ter think the matter over thurrer between whiles, and be f epared to vote \u2019cordin\u2019ly.1 thought that was a very good way to settle it, and I felt pretty sure the majority would vote to go.And they did.But some of \u2019em that lived qnite a ways out of the village grumbled a good deal at the early hour set for the party to begin ; said they didn\u2019t think much o\u2019 leavin their work right in the middle o\u2019 the day, as it were, and riggin\u2019 up and startin\u2019 out to a party.Why couldn\u2019t Mis\u2019 Gribbin\u2019 have hern in the evenin\u2019, aa other folks did !\u201d Hannibal and me, being jest married, was pretty well on\u2019t for does, of course, and we reckoned what was good enough to wear on our bridle toors in New York City was good enough for Punkinville.So we was all right ; but some was consider\u2019ble exercised and put out.Don\u2019t you know, some folks never have anything ter wear, no matter what the time nor casion is.Did you ever notice it?The party was set for Wednesday night j and Wednesday mornin\u2019 Mis\u2019 Hacket ran over in a great tor dew, and said that Ezry (her husband) had been down to the store, ter git him a new pair o\u2019 pantaloons to go \u2019long with his best soot, and he found the store full o\u2019 men, all after does pants, vests or coats, or somethin\u2019\u2014 and she *aid how that Mister Morse, the storekeeper, was most crazy, for he hadn\u2019t but jest two soots o\u2019 does in the store, and them wouldn\u2019t fit nobody ; and Mr.Morse said, if he had knowed in time, he could a\u2019 sent ter the city and laid in a stock jest as well as not, and fitted \u2019em alloue in shape.He didn\u2019t feel any wuss\u2019n the men did, you better believe ; but, you see, we had all been so took up with the omission o\u2019 the Mister, that we hadn\u2019t thought o\u2019 does.\u201cLet \u2019em wear their meetin\u2019 does, says I ter Mis\u2019 Hackett ; \u201cwhat looks well enough to wear to meetin\u2019 orter look well enough for a party 1 know it,\u201d says she ; \u201cginerally speakin\u2019, it orter ; but I guess likely a good many is jest in Ezry\u2019s fix ; kinder \u2018between hay and grass,\u2019 and thinkin\u2019 their old does would dew till cold weather, they\u2019ve got pretty shabby.I notice men ain\u2019t apt ter buy new does till the edge o\u2019 winter or so Wall, they all had ter dew the best they could, I s\u2019pose.Mis\u2019 Hacket she inked the seams of Ezry\u2019s pants, and pressed out the knees, and turned in the edges round the bottom where they was frayed out.But she got \u2019em dretful short ; they did look redicker-lous ! I couldn\u2019t help noticin\u2019 'em at the party.And there was a number o\u2019 men with theirn the same way.I asked Hannibal afterwards, if they couldn\u2019t a let down their galluses or somethin\u2019, but he laughed, and said there wa\u2019n\u2019t ginerally much help for \"high water pants,\u201d (That\u2019s what he called \u2019em.) There wa\u2019n\u2019t nothin' the matter with Hannibal\u2019s does, any way.He made a noble \u2019pearance, if I dew say it, and I feel ter believe that I looked reasonable well myself.Wall, Hannibal and me got ready, and stopped on the way for Mis\u2019 so\u2019s ter go \u2019long with them.We rung Mis\u2019 Gribbin\u2019s door bell jest as the clock was strikin\u2019 three.We\u2019re punctewal, anyway,\u201d I whispers to Hannibal, \u201cand punctew-ality is a vartue, 1 don\u2019t care whether it\u2019s in Punkinville or Boston,\u201d says I.Serinthy Ann Gribbin come to the door, and spoke tew us very perlite, but 1 thought she \u2019peared kinder strange, someway.She says, Walk right in, ladies,\u201d then she turns to the men, hesitatin\u2019, and flustered \u201cEr\u2014Er\u2014will you come in tew, gentlemen ?\u201d she says.They did come in, of course, foller in\u2019 along behind us, and lookin\u2019 kinder sheepish.Instid o\u2019 askin\u2019 us ter go upstairs and lay off our things, she opened the is a circle of some kind, but as 1 didn\u2019t see no sewin\u2019 layin' round, 1 concluded it wan\u2019t a common sewin circle.Wall, the folks poured in and poured in, and all the womeaJbrought their husbands, same's we did.\u201cMercy I\u201d says Mis\u2019 Hacket to me, \u201cwhere did the Gribbinses expect ter put all these folks.Much as ever the meetin\u2019 house would hold \u2019em.There must be a mistake somewheres, or else awful poor calkerlation.\u201d I suspicioned that these was considerable of both, but I didn\u2019t say so.\u201cThey kep\u2019 cornin\u2019 for about half an hour, till the parlor and settin\u2019-room was full and runnin\u2019 over.Then they began to stow em away in the dinin\u2019-room and kitchen.In pint o\u2019 fact, there wa\u2019n\u2019t no comfort nowheres from the beginnin\u2019 ; nothin\u2019 but crowdin\u2019 and squeezin' and pushin\u2019, and everybody was buzzin, about the omission o\u2019 the Mister, and specker-latin\u2019 as to whether men were expected ter come.It didn\u2019t take the women long to see through the hull business ; but men-folks are awful num about some things, you know, and this time, perhaps, it was jest as well they was.As I said, it was terribly crowded and uncomfortable\u2014hot\u2014oh, pipin\u2019 hot ! All the women ontied their bun-nit strings and fanned themselves with their handkerchiefs, and the men took off fust their coats, and finally their vests and carried \u2019em on their arms.Hannibal got the idee that there was more room out in the kitchen, so he put me behind him, and tellin\u2019 me to keep close, he fit his way through ; but when we got there we ijidn\u2019t seem to be much better off.There wa\u2019n\u2019t no place ter set down, and the stove was red hot ; but we managed ter open a winder and shet up the stove, then took turns settin\u2019in the wood-box, which was better\u2019n nothin\u2019; but as Hannibal remarked there wa\u2019n\u2019t much party tew it ; we could set in the wood-box ter home.\u201d Hannibal perceded at once to inter-duce me to all the folks in the kitchen, and for the fust tjme we engaged in a little somethin\u2019 like conversation.After they\u2019d all asked me separate how J likpd Punkinville, they fell back onto the subjeck of the party, and one little women says, laughin\u2019, If this ere is the kind o\u2019 parties they have in Boston, 1 pity \u2019em ! For goodness\u2019 sake, les dew somethin\u2019\u2014 chewin\u2019 gum would be better\u2019n nothin\u2019, wouldn\u2019t it ?\u201d So sayin\u2019 she took a great big paper o\u2019 spruce gum out of her pocket, and passed it round, and in a few minutes we was all busy chewin\u2019 and talkin\u2019 away real sociable.Gum is sociable anyway ; don\u2019t you think so ?But Hannibal said it wa\u2019n\u2019t fillin\u2019,\u201d and it made him feel hungry, so he began ter fus about goin\u2019 home.\u201cOh, no, you musn\u2019t go home yet,\u201d they all says, \u201cwe shall all have refreshments bimeby.\u201d It was my turn settin\u2019 in the wood-box, and jest then I heard voices outside in what \u2019peared to be the shed behind me.The wood-box stood close ter the shed door, I took it, and I heard Mrs.Gribbin say distinctly : What did the \u2019tarnal fools c >me for, anyway, when they wa\u2019n\u2019t invited?Did they \u2019spose our House would hold the hull town o\u2019 Punkinville ?\u201d Then Mister Gribbins answers, and says he, \u2018But now they\u2019re here, they\u2019ve got ter stay.It wouldn\u2019t never dew to mad \u2019em jest \u2019fore \u2019lection.You can see that as well as I can, if you ain\u2019t a gump and a fool !\u201d She grumbled out somethin\u2019 I didn\u2019t hear ; then she says, \u201cWall, s\u2019pos\u2019n they stay, who\u2019s a goin\u2019 ter feed \u2019em ?\u201d I haint got cake and coffy enough for this crowd ter smell on,\u201d says she, sarcastic.\u201cLeave me ter manage that,\u201d says he ; then he says somethin\u2019 about his new bam.( He was buildin\u2019 a barn at the time).Not long after\u2014say half an hour of so, Mister Gribbin \u2019peared in the parlor, and, rappin\u2019 on the serrphim, sung out, \u201cAttention, ladies and gentlemen attention !\u201d Then, when we was all still, he bows right and left, awful limber-jint-ed and graceful, and thus address us : \u201cLadies and gentlemen\u2014that is\u2014 neighbors\u2014er\u2014citizens o\u2019 Punkin ville 1 I was\u2014 was hendered from git-tin\u2019 home ter the party before, on count of\u2014business, pressin\u2019 business.Consequently our plans for the \u2019como-dation and entertainment of our guests and guestesses haint been strickly carried out\u2014not up to this pint, but you\u2019re all here,\u201d bowin\u2019 and rubbin\u2019 his hands and smilin\u2019, \u201cyes you\u2019re all here, and now, hopin\u2019 it aint tew late, I take pleasure in per-eeedin\u2019 ter carry out my\u2014that is ter say\u2014our plans.Gentlemen, feller-townsmen and neighbors will you walk out to mg new barn 1 Mis' Gribbin will tend tew the ladies.Come on, gentlemen, this way ; you all know the way !\u201d Oh, how they did skedaddle ! Almost before the words was out of his mouth they started, heels over head, without sayin\u2019 boo to their wives, or stoppin\u2019 ter put on their coats and vests, so that in a few minutes we women-folks was left in the house by ourselves.Mis\u2019 Gribbin and Serinthy Ann was now different bein\u2019s.They invited us to lay off our bunnit and make ourselves perfectly to home and we done so, and bimeby they brought in cake and coffy, and we eat and chatted and had such a pleasant time that when the clock struck six we couldn\u2019t hardly believe it was so late.Mis\u2019 Hackett an me we meant ter be punctewal ter go as well as ter come, so we was ready to start, but our men.folks didn\u2019t put in their \u2019pearance We waited some little time, and then I suggested to Mis\u2019 Hackett that we go over end see the new barn and so get our new pardners, \u2019Cordin\u2019ly we took our leaves of Mis\u2019 Gribbin and Serinthy Ann, and went over.When we opened the big barn door, what a sight we see !.Wall, ter cut a long story short as possible, Mister Gribbin had pervided imprompty refreshments out there for the men, consistin\u2019 of what odds and ends he could pick up at the store acrost the.steeet ; sardeens, crackers and cheese, nuts and raisins, and 1 dunno what all, to eat, and somethin' ter drink, besides I can\u2019t tell you just what, but that it was of an intostica-tion nater 1 felt sartin\u2019 the minute I set eyes on Hannibal.When Hannibal see me, he got offn the nail kag he was settin\u2019 on, and come rollin' towards me.\u201cNew barn ! fine new barn, Ruth Ann !\u201d says he, wavin\u2019 his arms in all directions like a win\u2019 mill, \u201cfine new barn\u2014and were all going to vote for Gribbin in November\u2014every man on us, \u2019publicans and\u2014and sinners !

feel justified In recommending Ayer\u2019s Cherry Pectoral.One of the best recommendations of the Pectoral is the enduring quality of its popularity, it being more salable now than it was twenty-five years ago, when its great success was'considered marvelous.\u201d\u2014 R.S.Drake, M.D., Beliot, Kans.My little sister, four years of age, was so ill from bronchitis that we had almost given up hope of her recovery.Our family physician, a skilful man and of large experience, pronounced it use-less to give her any more medicine j saying that he had done all it was possible to do, and we must prepare for the worst.As a last resort, we determined to try Ayer\u2019s Cherry Pectoral, and I can truly say, with the most happy results.After taking a few doses she seemed to breathe easier, and, within a week, was out of danger.We continued giving th* Pectoral until satisfied she was entirely well.This has given me unbounded faith in the preparation, and I recommend it confidently to my

division, were given in the first hour, and then the voters came slowly iu, until at 5 o\u2019clock, when the Poll was closed, only 56 votes out of 114 on the list had used their right to say who should represent them in the Local house.Upon counting up the votes given it was found there was a majority of 5 for J.Picard Esq.in this division.I hear the majority for Mr.Adam in the 4th division of Dudswell is 28.The Ballot Boxes were not taken out to Ham until Wednesday night.In so scattered a county as Wolfe it takes some time to do this.From 8 divisions heard from on Wed nesday night the majority for W.Adam was over 60, but as there are some 21 polling divisions, it is impossible to say until the Returning Officer gives a true count who is elected.The Liberals say they are safe, and the Conservatives say their man is in.There was little or no excitement all day Tuesday at any of Polling places in Dudswell.There are over 400 voters, but not one half of them voted.One thing was many of the farmers were obliged to work, as the spring work was so late this year; others would not support Mr.Mercier, by giving their vote to the Liberal candidate, and they would not vote Conservative.The illness and melancholy death of Mr.Picard\u2019s wife prevented his attending any of the meetings, and one half the voters, in all probability did not know the cause.I am told that in the East Dudswell division only II voters came to the Poll.WiH* POWDER Absolutely Pure* This powder never varie».A marvel of parity, ¦trength and wholesomeness.More economical than the ordinary kinds,

but in the case of \u201cPort Tarascon : The last Adventures of the Illustri-s Tartarin,\u201d the translation by Henry James, beginning as a serial in the June number of Harper\u2019s Magazine will be published complete before the French public can share in enjoying the immense drolleries of the original.This preference given to the American public by one of the greatest living French novelists, the hearty co-operation of one of the greatest living American novelists, and the distinguished assistance of Rossi, Myrbach, and others, creators of an original style in the art of illustration, have combined with the enterprise of the American publishers to bring about one of the most signal \u201cinternational episodes\u201d in the history of modern letters.This uniqe literary transaction signalizes the beginning of the fifth decade of Hunter\u2019s Magazine, HIKTHft.MoKEE.\u2014In this city, on the IHh June inst., the wife of J.Wesley McKee, of a son.MAKRIAOEB.WORTHINGTON\u2014MOLSON\u2014At St.Gcor«e\u2019s Church, Lennoxvllle, F.Q., on the 18th inetant, by the Rev.A.C.Scarth, M.A., Edward B.Worthington, of Sherbrooke, to Mabel Isabel, sixth daughter of Captain Joseph Dinham Maison, of Lennoxvllle, late of H.M.89th Regimes!.DEATHS.BYRNE\u2014At the Hospital of Sacred Heart, in this city, on the 16th inst., Annie C.youngest daughter of D.Byrne of this city, aged 12 years and 2 months.WESTBY\u2014At ths Hospital of Sacred Heart, in this city, on the 16th instant, Harry 0 Westby, aged 66 years.ECCLES\u2014At Monlten Hill, Asoot, on the 10th instant, Ntllie G.Lothrop, wife of Mr Frederick Eocles, aged 29 years, 3 months and 33 days.JOICE\u2014In Bury, P.Q., on the 9th April, 1890, Rnfus Alvin, son of James Joioe.Dearest Rufus thou hast left us, And our loss we deeply feed ;
