JOHN J. STUART. LONDON HOUSE, THAMES STREET.Ingeraoll, J w 13, 1877- 183 J N T E L S O T S T L E ’W 'T S I FAMILY GROCER AND PROVISION DEALER. CiiEEiiixrt News as to tho state of trade comes from Montreal, and when this great commercial centre can discovei and boast of increased bouyanco in trade, we, too, may with reason look for brighter pros­ pects io tbo near future. Tho following is taken from tho Montreal Star:—“The task of reviewing onr business situation from week to week grows pleasanter as we dis­ cover fresh uud unmistakable signs of re­ turning prosperity. We are now more con­ vinced than over that wo aro upon tho threshold of better limes, an 1 our inter­ views this day with tho prominent whole­ sale dealers end importers of tlii« city fully bear out that view. They nearly all rep irt a diminished volume of transactions which is incident to this season of tho year, when the spring trade terminates, and just prior to fall business setting in. But they all, without a kinglo exception, agree in declar­ ing that tho commercial atmosphere is more healthy and bouyunt, that confidence is in a large utensuro rostered, and wh.it customers purcbaso they pay tor. In short tho great bulk of trade is biucd upon those true urinciples which must eventually earn their own reword.” The mvAJixNrset on foot by tho dairy­ men of Western Ontario, nt a meeting held in Ingersoll on tho 2nd of M ty, h is taken a shape which must comment itself to every ona interested in tho dairy.ng in las- try of tho Province. Circulars bavo boon issued to factorymen, calling upon tbrm to take nu active part in the movement, aud wo have heard but ono wish cxpie sed iu tho matter, aud that is that tho testi-' tnonial should bo a handsome one—ono which shall bo a credit to the most infln<ii> tial and wealth^' branch of ftgricultaral in­ dustry, and one which shall, by its intrin­ sic value, be some compensation for the less of time n.ud money which Mr. Cass- well has bestowed iu tho interests of dairy­ men. Every dairymail in tho 1‘rovicce is indebted, iua greater or less degree, to Mr. Casswell for the active part be has tak -n, not only during the past year at tho Cen­ tennial Exhibition at 1‘hiladeljdiia, but ten yentfl ago, wbeu cbecso making on tho factor’ system was iu its iucipiency, Mr. Casswell was ono of the prominent business men, who. after great exertions, succeeded in inokiug a market for Canadian cheese iu England. Since that limo over three million dollars in value of cheese haro been annually exported from Canada. Wo do not doubt but this largo product would ultimately have found an outlet, but wo do doubt if it could have bein done iu so short n time aud so profitably to the producers, if Mr. Casswell liad not taken hold of die matter nt the time in the energetic spirit which be did. Farmers of Oxford do not require to he told that the development of the clteoso trade has increased the value of their real estate and greatly augmented their annual income. Before the business of cheese making was introduced tluir InnJfl had become impoverished, aud in­ stead of bat ingsa surplus of grain for sale they could scarcely raise enough for their own use. Now, they can look upon their bread acres with the satisfaction of know­ ing that they nrc among tho most produc­ tive in tho Province. Those are only some of the tilings that may be said of the ad­ vantages wLieli have accrued from the developement of the cheese trade, and what tnoy be said of many ether counties which have followed in our foot-step*. Our faimcre nt the present time aro the wealthy men of the land, aud we look to them to do what is only au act of justice, in reim­ bursing Mr. Casswelll fur the great loss of lime aud capital which lie has bestowed upon the dairying interests of the country, iu order to give it that standing and com­ mercial importance which it happily pus- teases to-day. Circulars havo beau placed in the bands of factorymen, throughout the country, asking them for a liberal res­ ponse in the matter, and we feel sure they will be returned with an expressi m of such tangible liberality that the testimonial shall be, not only au honor to the douora, but acceptiblo for its intrinsic value to the receiver. if not more, than our town debentures. If this is the case, and we have every reason to believe that it is likely to be, then the exchange of theso bonds may bo made useful al the present time in relieving us of the purchase ot a most expansive right of way into the town, which the company may demand if they choose, for a much cheaper one. Wo are also under obliga­ tions to purchase the material for a largo and expensivo warehouse er elevator. This tho company fcol disposed to forego if we accccd to th»ir proposal. Theso considera* tiona should bo taken into account, anl if an opportunity offera whereby wo can be relieved from theso obligations, and by our timely aid in tbo exchange of onr deben­ tures for tho company's bonds, give them a credit which will enable them to complete tho road in a shorter time than they other­ wise would bo able to, then wo think it would bo wise to entertain Mr. Laidlaw's propositions ; provided always, that bind­ ing obligations for the duo performance of tbo promises aro entered into. The bonds of the road at tho present time are of no commercial value, but it is unreasonable to suppose that they will remain so after the road is in ru ining order. Wo have groat confidence iu the road being n good paying enterprise. It runs through a good section of country and will command a very largo share of tho local passenger and freight traffic of the wealthiest and most thickly settled portion of Ontario. In time it must also comm in J a very largo animiiR of through triflic. Theso advantages entitle it to the highest consideration and the ut­ most confidence in its future prosperity and ability to meet the liabilities which tbo company are compelled to incur in its con­ struction. There is ono thing certain mid that is that ova are iu great need of railway competition, not because tho present road is unable to carry all tho freight wo have to send away, but because of the discrimi­ nation in rates which that road in its wis­ dom seems disposed to impose upon Inger­ soll in preference to other towns, which are competing for our trade. Onr neigh­ boring towns hive secured the advantages <>f railway competition at tho sacrifice of large tno.iey considerations, and if wo are to keep pace with them then wo must bo prepared to make equal sacrifices. These are things which must bo looked at square in the face and if there is any way out of our difficulties other tbau by going deep down into our pockets wo shall bo among the first to advocate them, but nt present we c.nn only sec our way to prosperity by making overtures to and meeting Mr. Laidlaw and tho Credit Valley Railway Company in a spiiit of amity aud confi­ dence. Sir: John Macdonald's appearance in any part of tho country now is the signal fi*r a demonstration. No matter wh*we it is he chances to be tho people are ready to do him homage. Tho demonstration iu London yesterday is but a fa:r sample of what awaits him in every part of the province. It is almost an impossibility tu estimate tho numbers in a largo miscellan­ eous crowd such ns was assembled iu London yesterday. Although our con­ temporaries opposed to us may affect to put down figures in estimate of tbo gathering, yet, wo have no doubt, they would L.11 as far short of tho actual (ruth as tho most ardent enthusi ist would be apt to exaggerate in tho other way. One thing, tho crowd was satisfactory to tho most sanguine, aud was of such dimensions as to warrant a conviction that that reaction of which it is the pleasure of Oppositionists to boast and Ministerialists to deride, is an adural and abiding fact. Tho time was wbeu it was almost impossible to getup tho least enthusinsn in Ingersoll or South Oxford for the Conservative cause but now that is changed and instead of inaction aud the inertia which formoly possessed tho few recognized representations of tho party, Conservatives in this Riding and its sister, llio North Riding of Oxford, aro up and doing whenever an opportunity is offered. It was formerly supposed that Conserva­ tives only composed a small minority of tho voters of Oxford, but with the large number of new wen who aro daily joining our ranks, and tho largo number uf men who aro tpiiugiug up and claiming alle­ giance to a party which it was feared had almost dwindled to death, it is uow ascer­ tained, beyond tho shadow uf a doubt*, that when the next contest takes place the Con­ servative parly will assert themselves in a most unmistakable manner. Why has thia change taken place? "Why is.it that a party which was almost ddnnct in this section of the Province baa risen up in so short a time so assert Us might and dig- uity ? These pre questions easily answer­ ed. They are questions which tho most inexperienced schoolboy, who has ono spark of humanity or justice in his composition, can answer without giving it a second thought.

A pnli. t«X W The r sores a L3 of Mr. Laidlaw, in regard to the Credit Valley Railway are. wo are glad to see, after coo! reflection, being look­ ed upon with more favor by those of our townspeople who at first were disposed to repudiate them altogether. This is the course we desired them to pursue, in our first arliole upon the matter, and we feel gratified to think, that if these proposals are put into tangible shape and proper precautionary stipulations demanded on behalf of the town and accseded to by the oompany, that should a by-law be sub- .milted to the people, it would be carried by a gooi majority. When Mr. Laidlaw first made his proposition, to exchange •50,000' of railway bonds for the same amoaiat ot town dabentana, it looked very hke a big additteaal grab, without an equiv­ alent return, but when the matter la rara- fully investigated it will bu found that we ■hail not only get a large ntearn, but the probaMlltiea are that, at maturity, the bonds of the railway will be worth*fully as orach, moans of displacing that veteran statesman who bad led tbo dentinies of the country for nearly a quarter of a century—and had led it so well and to such prosperity. It is natural now that they should seek to replace him in that position of which ho has boon defrauded, and tho first oppor­ tunity that off ora will, wo feol confident, place tho Govcinmcnt in tho hands of Sir John Macdonald and his able colleagues. nOSOPOLY. In looking over tho many interests of onr country it is remarkable how few- aro con­ trolled by a monopoly. Tho reason for this seems to bo hard limes coupled with the fact that tho people are so advanced iu civilization and education tint it is hard for any business to exist and compel people* to pay double what they ohould. Notwith­ standing tbo business knowledge tint our people possess, there still remains a few old stumps of monopoly’ which require to bo l.'okcd into, especially if there is a remedy nt hand. Lot tn take fur example the express business of Canada. There are but two express companies in Canada of any note, ono called tbo Canadian but virtually an American institution, tho other tbo American, owned and controlled •entirely by Americans, and theso two com­ panies have arrangements so complete that competition is impossible. Th? people know that north of a certain pel it t is Canadian Co. Las coutrole, while in the so ith tha A nirieui grts all tho bus no-,s so that they are in a position to snj' to n rail­ road after it is b.fdt, you intijt camo to onr terms, or Lave no express running over your road. It is plain to bo reen that the rates charged ou express aro by far too hi,*li. Oi course, there is nol as much busi­ ness douo as if they were lower, but these companies are xvcll aware that enough business must come to them to ensure a “ fat living.” You never seo au express agent looking fur business, for tho reason above mentioned. Wj cite the express business in Canada as ono of the mjuopo- lies for the following reasons: 1st, The Am-rican Express Company does not own any real estate here ; 2nd, Its head offices arc all in the States, and a great many ot their messengers running through Canada live on tho other side, even the Canadian division superintendent lives in Michigan., So they keep in Canada barely staff epough' to perform tho manual labor. Srd. They brou.dit no money into the country to start business with, and after their agents are ptid out of tin mmey in t ie in Canada tho balance (which is laige) is e*»nt to New York where it is divided among a few wcalty mon. win da littlo else—after they have signed their cheques onco a month for their salaries.

Wo know that tbo samo work can be done ns well by Ctnadians, aud if such were the case, tho largo amount of money made iu this way would bo kept at home. While our citizens are looking out f>r competition in passenger and freight rates, why not try, iu some way, to secure tho same in express ? Should tho “ Credit Valley ” soo fit to plaio a Canadian c?m- pany on tho road, we would soo nrt only reduced ratos but increased facilities. Let us t.iko an example, wher o competition would benefit onr mirchants. Snpnoso a merchant in Toronto telegraphs that he wauls twenty boxes of cheese if you can get them to him by night. You go to the station and find that the morning frlight has gone. What are you to do ’ There would bo no use going to tho express office, for when there you would find a tariff pre­ pared in the Slates, given to agents with instructions to observe, and that tariff so high that you would loso money to ship that way. Now, wo contend Hint if wo had competition,and hud a company owned by Canadians, with its Lead office at To­ ronto or somo convenient point, that rates could bo obtained whereby wo could afford to ship quantities of goods, which now go by freight. This is but one ceso out of many. Now let ns look at small packages, Tbo lowest rate on any package is 25c. We claim that a tariff should be instituted, making some difference on small packages, for a carofal iuvostigatisn will prove that it would pay. _ Wo think tbit Gils monopoly requires the careful attention of business men, and if they cannot derive any direct benefit by reduced rates, surely the Government should demand ths payment of a license from an institution which brings no money into the country, but takes all away. the highest degree of purity in political matters. They professed to Lave abilities ■o mneh exalted above those who were then in power that the people, after bearing the nsec Hinas and assurances repeated and re­ repealed, were inclined to give them a trial. They have given them a trial, and they now see their short-comings. They see that they are not capable of grasping with the great questions which effeetoar national prosperity, and that our country and the industries which are its sources of wealth and greatnew are languishing for the vn»it of that fostering care which they eannot, or will not, bestow upon it. They see now that they sought office, not because Sir John and his followers were corruptionists, bat because they saw an opportunity of enriching themselves and their friends and relatives if they oonld obtain seats upon the treasury beuehe*.

The arrival ot tlm Czar at Pio-irati, the constantly reiterated atstemnnt of the correspoadent as tn the state of the Rnssian army, and the elaborate prepara­tions for crossing tbo Danube, have con­ vinced even the most stupid that there willbe WAR TO THE KNIFE, and that Russia undeterred by British jea­ lousy, is steadily pursuing b<r march toconquest. The tendency to hack dowri from the demands mode on the part of Great Britain, as mentioned in my pre­vious dispatches, is again iMistrated by the tenor of Ute editorial" c nament in S-dur- day** newspaper*. The talk is all aboutthe $<t«z Canal, tho rights of belligerents and neutrals, and th* protection of English outnmeroe. Little is said of tha occupa­tion of Constantinopln, though, as i bavo intimated, all doubte of Riunia’a inten­tions are dissipated.

The farmer*' corn-fields and gardens nowAre haunted no more by the highway cow. Itapld Fattening. Tbe Cedar Falls (Iowa) Gazette, states that Mr. R. F. Kilpatrick, living near that town, had got the idea that tho common practice at the West of feeding corn iu tho ear in largo quantities at a time, is not tho most profitable, as tbe large steers would drive away tbe smaller ones, and defile, more or less, the corn which they loft for the weaker ones. Mr. K. is feeding a car­ load of steers, and divides bis feed into three equal messes, feeding in the throe meals what farmers usually feed at once, and giving them ample feed-room, so that all can eat at once if they wish. In ad­ dition, he feofls them all the good clover hay they can eat. By following this coarse, each head of stock requires but a pock of corn a day, and does better than on a half bushel of corn and a poor quality of hay. To ascertain the result of this ex­ periment, he had three steers weighed »t his farm on the 1st of December. They were weighed again tho 80th of December. Tbe first was a two-year-old, who weighed on the 80th December 1,270 pounds, hav­ ing made a gain of eighty pounds in tho thirty days. No. 2 was a four-year-old, weighed 1,440 pounds, having made a gain of 120 pounds—an average of four pounds a day. No. 8, a four-year-old, weighed 1,610 pounds, having giincd 160 pounds—an average of five and onc-oighth pounds a day. This is a remarkable gain, considering the fact that the corn was fed out of doors and in tbe ear. This plan of feeding cattle will, no doubt, seem wasteful to the Eastern feeder, who feeds only ground grain to carefully stabled cattle, but it must be remembered that the low price of Iowa com will not per- mil the Western feeder to grind tbe prain. Its low price, added to the cost ef hauling to the mill would more than absorb all tbe profit from grinding. The gain reported by Mr. Kilpatrick exceed* anything we have been able to accomplish even with tho best of care,—the best gain reported, being over five pound* per day. The lowest, eighty pounds in thirty days, is below our average, but so very little that we may ac- sept it.

But, should thia danger be avoided, matters are xsol necessarily left in * hotter state.

Cevi Holding Back Klk. A cow carries her milk from ono meal to her calf to another, or from one milking to another-, held firmly in little reservoirs dirtribated all through the udder. The valves which open and close the passages from tbe reservoir to tbe teals and under control of the will, but, like the muscles whi^li eloae the necks of tho bladder, they are naturally and constantly kept closed, an 1 are only relaxed or opened by a spe­ cial effort of the will. At milkirg time those valves by a relaxation of the cords w’.ich control them are opened, and tho milk let down in a flood npon tbe teats. This relaxation does not last long. After a little while the special effort to bold open tho valves ceases, and they instinctively cluse again, shutting off thu flow from tho reservoirs any milk which may not have passed out. Tho habit of not “giving down” consists in shortening the time of relaxation thus stopping tho flow from the reservoirs to tho teats before the milk is all drawn. The circa instances which tend to make a cow shorten this period of relaxation are rough treatment, fear, grief, solicitude, load noises, in short anything that attracts attention and makes the cow uneasy. The cirtkimstanecs which produce a prolonged relaxation are comfort and quietude, and freedom from disturbance and excitement. Hero is what a correspondent of the Weekly Tribune has to say about mana­ ging the enrrant worm: Tbe destraction of currant bashes for years past by worms has beon the means of enhancing tho price of that very valua- lefrui/ in most-markets, while with little care it can be cheaply protected. It is a well-known fact that while hellebore is sure death to tbe currant worm, bnt at the same time many will not try it while oth­ ers apply it in such a way that it is soon washed off by rains, or only touches tho tops and outside haves, leaving the inside of tho bunch of bushes for the worm to feed upon. Tho whole secret is to apply it on tho under side of the leaves, where tbe worm fastens to cat. To do this I take a piece of cotton cloth that the powder will shako through sparingly, about ten inches square ; put in about four ounces of pow­ der, and gather it up around the end of a stick about three feet long, and tie it on, making a sort of bag at the end. I then make the application in the morning, be­ fore tbe dew is off, by opening the bunch of bushes and patting tho bag down, near- ly to the bottom, and shaking it, the cur­ rent of air is then upward, and tho leaves being damp, tho powder sticks on the under side. If the current of air is a little side­ ways shako low on tho wiud side, on th* outside of the bunch of bushes. It is not best to await tho appearance of tho worm, but doctor tho bus’bcs as soon as the blos­ soms are well developed, and the leaves are half or two-thirds grown, and again after tho fruit has fairly set. This will usually do tho work for the season. The main point is to rightly apply the hellebore, and with those hints and a careful attention, with tho nso of a little judgment the cur­ rant bush can be preserved. Wo hare a row about six rods Jong, that wo bavo pre­ served for over twelve years in fine, heal- ty condition, producirg from 813 to 820 yearly, beside what wo use, at a cost of care not to exceed $1 per rod. Paris Green and the Frtatv Bug, The farmers throughout the country e\i dently anticipate a hot campaign with tho potato bug, in view of tho raid they have made upon Paris Green. Tho bug has ia fact, already appeared in numerous sec­ tions of tho State, and in innumerable numbers. The result has beon an unpre­ cedented demand for Paris Green; and in New York tba price has advanced in con­ sequence fully one hundred per cent, siucc tho first of May. The general selling quo­ tation on May first was 23 21 conts per pound, and sales are now recorded at 45c., with an anticipated advance to 50 cento. One promiucat firm iu Npw York was of­ fered 40 ig 42 cents for thoir nutiro supply, but tho concern refused tbe offer, preferring rather to deal it out in parcels as called tor by farmers. Tho Now York purchase of Paris green have leached one million pounds in the last fortnight. These large lots going into consumption have pretty well cleaned out tho available supply for immediate delivery. ” The continued demand for Pari* Gr«en indicates that the farmer* have concluded that no other remedy for tbe pest is so ef. fective. Farmers find it more profitable generally to u*e this article freely, consid­ ering tbe high price of potatoes than to give up th* crop entirely. And tho fact that some discouraged farmers have plan­ ted other vegetables on land heretofore given to potatoes, make* other* more than •ver determined to raise a crop under any circumstance*; hence their largo purchase* of Pari* green, which are not leeeened any by the advanced oo«t, a* even at the pre*- •at high prices it doe* not oo*t over ten eent* to a bushel at th* most.

CAREW had arrived onTuesday morning, and an­ nounced that n previous en­gagement would limit her visit to Saturday, at which time she had promised to become the guest of a friendbn Murray Hill. During Wednesday and Thursday, the uoum was thronged with visitors. Therewas company to dinner and to luncheon, and every imaginable tribute paid to the 1taste and variety of the beautiful woman, I who accepted the incense offered, ns flowers the dew ot Heaven, and stars the light thatconstitutes their glery. Accustomed from her cradle to adulation and indulgence, she had a pretty, yet imperious manner of ex­acting it from all who ventured within her circle ; and could not forgive tho cool indif­ ference which generally characterizedOlga’s behaviour. Too well-bred to be guilty of rudeness, the latter contrived in a veiy adroit way todefy every proposition advanced by the fair guest, and while she never transcended thebounds of courtesy she piqued and harassed and puzzled not oniy Mrs. Carow but Mr.Palma. At ten o’clock on Thursday night, when the guests invited to dinner bad departed, and the family circle bad collected in thesitting-room to await the carriage which would convey the ladies to a Wedding Re­ception,—Mrs. Carew came down stairs magnificiently attired in a delicate green satin, covered with an overdress of exquis­ite white lace, and adorned with a profu­ sion of emeralds and pearls. Her hair was arranged in a unique stylo(which Olga denominated “Isis fashion”)and above her forehead rested a jeweled lotos the petals of large pearls, the loaves ofemeralds. A« she stood before tho grate, with the white lace shawl dipping from her shoul­ders, and exposing the bore gleaming bust, Olga exclaimed : • 0 Queen of the Nile 1 What Antonyawaits your smiles ?’ As if a ware that she wore scrutinized, the gray eyes sank to the carpet, then metOlga's. • Miss Neville is not tho only person who has found in mo a resemblance to thoEgyptian Sorceress. When I return to Italy, Story rhall immortalize mo in connection with his own impassioned poem.Let me see, how does it begin : • Hen Charmlao, take my bracelets.* * She passed her band across her low white brow, and glancing furtively at Mr. Palma, she daringly repeated tho strongestpassages of tho poem, while her flute-liko tones seemed to gather additional witch­ery.Sitting in one corner, with an open book in her hand, Regina looked at her and listened, fascinated by her singularbeauty, but astonished at tho emphasis ' with which sho recited imagery that tingedthe girl's cheek with red. • If there bo a ‘cockatoo* in Gotham, doubtless yon will own it to-morrow. But !forgive me, oh Cleopatra I if I venture tho heresy that Story's poem, gorgeous though ' I grant it,—leaves a bad taste in one'smouth, like richly spiked wine, hot and sweet and deliciously intoxicating; but bo- ' ware of to-merrow I Sometimes the poisonof asps is not confined to fig-baskets ; sad with your permission. I should like to offeryou an infallible antidode, Seraph of tho , Nile.’Mrs. Carew smiled defiantly, nnfl in- 'elined her bead, inteqircting tho lurking 1 challenge in Olga’s fiery hazel eyes. Leaning a tittle forward to note tho ef- 1 feet, the Jotter began and recited with much skill the entire.words of‘Maud Mui- 1 ler.’ Whenever tho name of the Judge ]was pronounced, she looked at Mr. Palma, and there was peculiar emphasis in her (rendition of the lines : ' * Bat the lawyer* (rolled that afternoon,When be hummed in Ceurt an old lure tune. 1 n* wedded * wife of richwt dower.Who lived for fashion m ho for power. How had Olga discovered the secret,which be believed so securely locked in his own heart? Not a muscle moved io biscold guarded face, but a faint flush stole across his cheek, as he met her sparkling gaze.Mrs. Carew's rosy lip curlad scornfully. ‘ My dear Miss Neville, should you ever ” > Mm .mitten by tbe blasts of adversity, your Af eKarin inc recitative talent would* prove wonderfully remunerative upon the stage.'* Thanks 1 but my observation leads me to believe that at the present day, the pro­fession of the Sycophants pays the heaviestdividends. Does Cleopatra's fondness for figs enable her to appreciate my worldlywisdom ?' Regina knew that Olga meant mischief to both host and guest, and though she didnot comprehend the drift of her laughing words, she noticed tbe sudden smile that flashed over her guardian's countenance,and the perplexed expression of Mrs. Carew's ryes.• Miss Neville was as usual flounderedinto bar favorite blue mire, whoso stale scraps of learning cannot tempt ms to pur­suit. * Not into tbe mud of the Nile, oh celes­ tial Isis I but into tbe classic lore of Hellas.■ Ask Mr. Palma why I am opposed to smuggling figs — especially rose coloredfigs.’ Olga’s light laugh was particularly ir- ritaliug and disagreeable at that moment,and her mother, who was a ubiquitous flagof truce on such occasions hastened to in­ terpose.• My daughter, what possible connection can Mrs. ,Carew or anybody else find be­ tween the habit of sycophancy, aud basketsof figs ?*• Dear Mamma. to explain it to you I might ba construed into an unfilial and ir­reverent reflection upon tbe insufficiency of your education, and of that admission,nothing eould induce me to bo fenilty. But Regina yonder is still in the clutches of Dominie Sampson, and as she is such aninnooent stupid young dove, I will have mercy uppn her curiously questioning eyes.My dear nwtio**>taed,* Sycophants means Jigddabbern. and when you are patio ut enough to study, and wise enough to ap­preciate Plutarch, you will learn the derivation of tbe title, which justly belongsJo multitudes of people.* * Making as near an approached to a grimace, as tbe lines of grace (which shepever violated) would permit, Mrs. Carew lifted one shoulder almost out of its satin fetters, and turned to her host. * Miss Neville should have reigned at theHotel de Bambouilfot, when precteuss was naora honored than new. I fear if societyrwpeeted tbe ♦astne** of her laarning, it would mate .a panic wherever she go**.' Olga w m kaviug the room, had almostnecked the door but at tho last words •J:e*utiftil 24 W® Cleopatra or Anthony au- <•* my conundrum ” When my arndiliou / areal*a a panic, why I am like those whodwelt abowt Cbetami*. when the tragical iale of Oriria w m accomplished ?'Mr. Palma answered promptly: ‘Becans* Cm Pana who inhabited that ractea wan tho first who learned ot ths di*aster, and as they spread dm fatal new. among Um people, all ndhe public frights and sbocte ha** been am afame called pen-im. The carnage b ready. Wo shall te Into at tho wedding. Olga, where is your shawl ?'1 As they quitted the room together, be added in an undertone :• Your Parthian warfaro would hnvejus- ■ lifted mt in returning your arrow, but I was 1 never ah export in the use of small arms.’With her hand upon the balustrade of , the stairs, which she was ascending, Olgalooked down on him, and her eyes blazed with an intensity of scorn and defiance. . ‘To yonr empty quiver, not your leni-I ency, I am indebted for my safety. Yonr arrows wore all skilfully barbed, and eventhe vonom of asps distilled upon them;— but you have done your worst,—and failed. Parthian tactics ill suit my temper let metell you, and just now I sbon'd infinitely prefer the Scythian style. Wire I only for one brief hour Toinyri*—I would carryyour head, Sir,—where she held that of Cyrus,—in a bag.’ He walked on to tho front door, and thosein the sitting-room heard Olga run up tho steps, singing with gusto that strain from Fra Diavole,—ending : ‘ Diavolo !Diavolo I’ Tho ’ Cantata of Undine ' had been com- pored by a gift d and fashionable amateur,nud was perf rrued by yonng people who belonged to le beau monde, consequently at an early hour on Friday evening, thehouse was crowded to witness the appear­ ance of a 0 mediation of amaleurt, among whom Regina shone resplendent. Whenafter tho opening chorus, she camo first upon the stage, and stood watching thebaton of the leader, a hum of admirationrose from tho audience. The costume was of silvery gauzo thathung like mist around her slender figure, and was encrusted hero and there with the fragile white water-lilies that matched Urospray which twined across her head, nnd strayed down among the unbound hair now floating free, far below her waist.Very pale but calm, sho began her solo, at first a littlo tremulously, but by degrees tho rich voico gained its strength, assertedits spell, and nobly fulfilled the promise of P*”fessor Hurtzsol, that New York should hear that night its finest contralto.Startled by tho burst of applause that succeeded her song, she looked for the firsttime at the salience, and saw her guar­ dian's tall conspicuous figure leaning against a column, near the spot where Mrs.Carew sat.Very grave, coldly critical, and quite preoccupied hj certainly looked, nnd nonewould have dreamed that the slight motion of his mute lips, meant ‘ My Lily.’ Twice sho sang nlono, aud finally in a duowhich admirably displayed the compass nnd timbre of her very pecular voice, and the floral hurricane that-assailed her, at­tested her sompleto triumph. Tin unaffected simplicity ot her bearing, ns contrasted with tho aplomb and artifi­cial manner of tho other young ladies who were performers,—tho angelic purity and delicacy of the .sweet girlish face, with alingering trace of sadness in tho superb eyes, which only deepened their velvet vio­let,—excited tho earnest interest of all pre­ sent, and many curious enquiries ran through tho audieneo.At tho close of tho Cantata, Mrs. Palma drew Regina away from tho strangers who pressed forward to offer their congratula­tions, and throwing a fur cloak around hsr, kissed her cheek. It was the first caress tho stately womanhad ever bestowed, and as tho girl looked up, gratified aud astonished, tho formersaid : ' You sang delightfully my dear, and we are more than satisfied, quite proud. Yourvoico was as even and smooth as a piece of cream-coloured Persian satin. No Mrs. Brcmpton, not to-night. Pardon me, Pro­fessor, but I must hurry her away, for Mrs. Carew and I have an engagement at Mrs. Qnimbey’s. I shall bo obliged to take our‘Uudino’ home, and then return for my fair friend,—who is, as usual, surrounded, and inextricable just now.’While she spoke, Regina’s ryot wander­ ed across the mass of heads, and rested on the commanding form of her guardianstanding among a group ot gentlemen col- Wted around Mrs. Carew, who clad inwhite moire antique, with n complete over­ dress of finest black lace, looped with dia­ mond sprays, seemed more than usuallyregal and brilliant. Mrs. Palma hurried Regina through a side entrance, and down to tho carriage,and ere long, having seen her enter the hall at home, bado her good-night, and drove back for Mr?. Carew and Mr. Pal­ma. It was only a little after teu o'clock, andRegius went up to the library, her favor­ ite haunt. She had converted the over­ skirt of her dress into an apron,—now filledwith bonuete from among the number showered unon her; and selecting one composed of pilar.oiium's and heliotrope*—sjie placed it in the vaie beneath her mo­ ther’s picture, and laid the remainder in a circle aronnd it.• Ah mother 1 they praised your child; but your voice was missing. Would yon too have been proud of me ? Oh 1 if Icould feel your lips on mine,—’and hear yon whisper once more,—as of old,—"My •baby 1 my precious baby I'Gazing at the portrait, she spoke with a passionate fervour very unusual in her composed reserved nature; and unshedtears gathered, and glorified her eyes. The house was silent and deserted, sav< by the servants, by Mrs. Carew’s child andnurse, and throwing off her cloak Regina remained standing io front of the portrait,while her thoughts wandered into gray dreary waters. Since the day of Mr*. Carew’s arrivalshe bad not exchanged a syllable with her guardian, nor bad she for an instant seen him alone, for the early breakfasts hadbeen discontinued, and in honor of bis guest and client, Mr. Palma took his withthe assembled family. There was in his deportment toward his ward, nothing harsh, nothing that couldhave indicated displeasure; but be seemed to have entirely forgotten her, from the moment when he presented her to Mr.Cbesley. He bad never even accidentally glancedat her, and patiently watching his immo­bile cold face, sparkling only with intelli­ gence, as be endeavored to entertain hisexacting aud imperious guest, Regina be­ gan to realize the vast distance that divi­ ded her from him.His haughty Brahminio pride seemed to lift him into some lofty plane, so far be­ yond the level of Peleg Peterson,—that incontrasting them the girl groaned and grow sick at heart. She felt that ahe stood upona mine already charged, and that at any moment that wretched man who held thefatal fuse in hi* brutal hand might hurt herand all her hopes into irremediable chaos and ruin. If the fastidious and aristocraticpeople who had kindly applauded her sing­ ing a liitis while age, could have imagined ] tha dense cloud of social humiliation thatthreatened to hunt upon her, would she have even been tolerated in that assem­blage? Ignorance of her parentage was her *ole passport into really good society, and tho prestige ol her guardian's noblename an ermine mantle of protection, which might be rudely tom away. During tho la«t three day., left to thecompanionship of her own sad thcugbtn, 1 and tmable to mo Olga alone for even a 1 moment, more tlian one painful and unut­terably bitter discovery had been mad*. 1 She felt that indeed her childhood bad flown forever, that the sacred mysterious chrism of womanhood hud been pouredupon her young heart. Until forced to observe the marked ad­ miration which, in his own house, Mr.Palma evinced whan conversing with Mrs. Carew, Regina had been conscious only ofa profound respect for him, of a deeply grateful appreciation of his protecting care;' and even when he interrogated- her withreference to her affection for Mr. Lindsay, she bed truthfully asserted her conviction that her heart wu wholly disengaged.But sternly honest iu dealing with her own soul, subsequent events had paiuftilly shocked her into a realization of the feelingthat first manifested itself as she watched Mr. Palma aud Mrs. Carew at tho dinnertable. She knew now, that the keen pang that she suffered that day, c*uld moan nothingless solemn and distressing than the mor­ tifying fact that sho was beginning to loveher guardian. Not merely <us a grateful, respectful warJ, tho august lawyer who re­ presented her mother's authority,—but asa woman once, and once only iu life,—loves tbe man, whom her pure, tender heart humbly acknowledges as her King, herhigh priest,—her one divinity in clay. Although conscience acquitted her of anyintentional weakness, her womanly pride and delicacy bled nt every pore, when she arraigned herself for being guilty of thisemotion toward one, who regarded her ns a child, who merely pitied heroforlorn iso­lation; nnd whoso eyes would fill with fieryscorn, could ho dream of her presumptuous her unfeminine folly. Despite tho chronic sneers with whichOlga always referred to bis character and habitual conduct, Regina could not with­hold a reverence for his opinion, nnd an earnest admiration of his grave, dignified vet polished deportment in his house­bold. By degreas, her early dread nnd repul­ sion had molted nwny; confidence and respect usurped tbeir place ; nnd graduallyho had grown and heightened in her estimation,—until suddenly opening her eyes wide, (be saw that Erie Palma filledall tbe horizon of her hopes. During three sleepless nights, she had kept her eyes riveted upon this unexpectedand mournful fact, and while deeply humiliated by tho discovery, she proudly tesolved to uproot and cast out of herheart tbe alien growth, which she felt could prove only the upas of her future.Allowing herself absolutely no hope, no pardon, no quarter, sho sternly laid tho axe of indignant condemnation and destruc­tion to the daring off-shoot—desperately hewing at her very heart-strings. Mrs. Carew’s manner left little doubtthat she was learning like a rips peach with his reach, ready nt a touch to fall in­ to bis han I; and though Regina felt thatthis low-browed—sibyl eyed woman was vastly bis inferior in all save beauty andwealth, sho knew that even bis failure to marry the widow would furnish no justifi­ cation for tho farther indulgence of her ownfoolish and unsought preference.The dread lest he might suspect it, and despise her, added intensity to her desire to leave New York, and find safety in joiningher mother; for the thought of his cold contempt, his glittering black-eyes, andcurling lips, was unendurable. Weeks must elapse ere she could receive an answer to her letter, praying for per­mission to sail for Europe, and during this trying interval she determined to guard every word and glance,—to allow no hintol her great folly to escape. Peleg Peterson's daughter.—or else ‘Nobody’s Child,'—daring to lift her eyesto tho lordly form of Erie Palma. As this bitter thought taunted and stung her, sho uttered a low cry of anguish andshame. ‘ Wbat is tho matter ? Don't cry ; itwill spoil your pretty eyes.’Regina turned quickly, and saw little Llora Carow standing near, and arrayed only iu her long white night dress, andpink rosetted slippers. • Llora, how camo you out of bod ? Yauought to have been asleep tbreo hours ago.’ • So I was. But I waked up, and felt solonesome. Mammie has gone off and left me, and. hunting for somebody, I came here. Won't you please let mo stayawhile ? I can't go to sloop.’ • But you will catch cold.' ' No, tho room is warm,—and I have myslippers. Oh I what a pretty dress I And your arms and neck nro like snow,—whiter even than my mamma’s. Please do sing something for me. Your voice is sweeter than my mnsical box,—and then 1am going away to-morrow.' She had curled herself like a pet kitten on the rug, and looking down at her softdusky eyes, and rosy checks, Regina sigh­ ed. • I am so tired—dear. I have no voicoloft.’ ‘ If yon could sing before all the people at the Cantata, you might just one song,—for little me.’ • Well pet,—I know I ought not to boselfish, and I will try. Come kiss me. My mother is so far away, nnd I havo nobody to love me. Hug me tight.• There was a door leading from Mr. Palma's sleeping room, to the curtained alcove behind the writing desk, and hav­ing quietly entered by that passage soon after Regina came homo, tbe master of the bouse sat on a lounge veiled by damaskand Ince curtains, and bJding the drapery slightly aside, watched what passed in tholibrary. As Regina knelt on the rug and openedher arms, the pretty child sprang into them, kissed her cheeks, and assured herrepeatedly that she loved her very dearly, —that she was the loveliest girl sho ever saw,—especially in that gauze dress.Particularly fond of children, Regina toyedwith, and caressed her for some minutes, then rose, and said:• Now I will sing you a little song to put yon to sleep. Sit here by tho hearth, but bo sure not to nod and fall into the fire.'She opened the organ, and although partly beyond the range of Mr. Palma's vision, he heart] every syllable of the sweetmellow English words of Kncken's “Scblnmmerlied,”—with its soothing re­frain : above the silver gauze of her drapery, hnsilently admitted that her beauty seemed strangely sauctified, and more spiritual!* than ever before. Contrasting that sweetwhite figure over whose delicate lips floated tbe dreamy rhythm of the cradle chant,—with the hutldreds of handsome, accom­ plished, witty and brilliant womeat who thronged tho ball room be had just left, thisman of th* world confessed that bis proud ambitions he»rt was hopelessly in bon­ dage with the fair young singer. "Bleep my preity one sleep.—Bleep u>y preUy one,—Bleep. At that moment he was powerfullytempted to delay no longer,—to take her to bis besom forever; and it cost him a strug­ gle to sit patiently, while every fibre of hisstrong frame was thrilling with a depth and fervour of feeling that threatened tobear sway all dictate* of discretion. Ah Iwhat a divine melody seemed to ring througlthis future ns ho leaned forwardaud listened io the closing words, softly re­ iterated : Bleep my little oneeleep,Sleep my prvttvanc eleep. When she wna his wife how often in theblessed evenings spent here, in this hal­ lowed room, ho promised himself he wouldmake bcr sing that song. No shadow ofdoubt whenever ho chose, he coaid win her for his own, clouded the brightness of tbevision for success in other pursuits had fed bis vanity, until bo believed himself invin­ cible ; nud although he had studied hercharacter closely, ho failed to comprehend fully the proud obstinacy latent iu herquiet nature. Just then tho Chief Justiceship seemed an inferior prize in comparison with thopossession nf that whitc-browed girl, nnd her pnro clinging love ; nnd certainly for a limo Mr. .Erie Palma’e proud toweringpride nnd insatiable ambition were forgot­ ten in histongingto snatch tho one beloved of al! his arid lite, to tho heart that wasthrobbing almost beyond oven his rigid central. For the first time within his recollection,be distrusted bis power of self-restraint, and riving passed quickly into his ownroom, and thence after some moments outinto tbe ball. Near tho stairs ho met tho mallatto nurse, carrying Llora in herarms. ‘ Doos Mrs. Carew permit that child to sit up so late ?’‘ Oh no Sir 1 Sho has been asleon once , but Miss Regina pet* her a good deal, aud' bad her in the library singing to her.' |TO BE CONTINUED.] Barnam’i Tattooed ffoblcmaB. A FULL DESCRIPTION OF TUB WONDER. The following description from theBridgeport (Conu.) Daily Standard, of Capt. Costeutenus, tho wonderfully-tattooed Albanian Greek, with P. T. Barnum's newand only Greatest Show on earth, will be very interesting to onr readers “Wesaw at ex-Mayor Birnum’s resi­ dence, this morning, a wonder of tattooingon the person of Capt. Geo. Constentinus, a doscoudaut ot a noble Greek family,from tho province of Albania. His state­ ment is that while he, together with an American and a Spaniard, were mining inChinese Partary, m 1867 a rebellion arose, and the three joined tho insurgents. Ill luck coming to their cause, they were takenprisoners, and subjected to tho tattooing process for three months, ns a punishment bi lieu of having their heads cut off. Hesays that tho process causes such terrible pain that it required six men to hold him while one performed tho operation. Af.erit was completed all throo escaped fromprison, but tho American only survived five or six months. Tho Spaniard lost biseyesight, and died in Morrilla ; but Capt. Constontenus survives, nnd is in good health. Tho tattooing was done with in­digo and cinnabar, producing blue and red colors ; nnd there is not a single point ou bis body, which is not covered with thesecolors, so that it is impossible to discover wbat was tho natural color of his skin ex­ cept by bis ears and tho soles of his feet,which nre the only parts they did not tat­ too. He appeared at first sight as though ho was clothed with very ch s--fitting tightsmade of a shawl or of very soft, fine drug- gett. Upon a close inspection, however, it is seen that he is entirely naked, and thattho apparent tights are an ill nrion. Moro- over his whole person is found to be cov-ered with a great variety of animal fig­ures with tbeir names, most ingeniously and skillfully printed into the curticlo. Outhe forehead are animals nnd inscriptions, and on ho face star-like figures. On the hands nre numerous red paint* nud figures resembling sculptures, as well ns long-tailed panther-like shapes. On ths neck, chest, abdomen, back, and extremities, theskin is a mass of symmetrically arrangedand admirably executed figures of mon­ keys, tigers, lions, elephants, peacocks, storks, swnnifc snakes, crocodiles, lizards,mingled with bows, arrows, leaves, flowers and fruits, on the palms of tho hand are indescribable figures, nnd little figures ontho inside of the fingers. On tho back and sides of both feet to the toes are blue points, aud from tho tons to tho nails redline*. Altogether there nre 883 tattooed pictures on the entire bodv—on the fore­ head, 2 ; neck 8 ; chest 5(f; back 87; abdo-men 52 ; upper extremities, 101 ; lower ex­ tremities, 187. He is certainly one of the greatest human curiosities ever seen. Hehas traveled in all countries except Ameri­ ca and was attracted hero by tb« Centennial exhibition. He spoke English, FrenchSpanish and Italian this morning, and he understands tho Arabic, Persian and sev- •ral other languages, Ho is about five feetten inches high, baa a superb physique ; his hair is straight, jot black and glossy. To tbo touch bis skin has a very soft, vol-vety feeling ; and it has so much th* ap­pearance of being clothed, that be might walk through the public street* without any one suspecting that he was not dressedin tights. 1 Oh, hmh thee now, in *1 umber mIM,While watch J keep, eh deep my chlM.‘ She sang it with strange pathos, think­ ing ofherownfar distant mother, whomfate had denied the privilege of chanting lullaby* over her lonely blue-eyed child. Ending, sb* came back to tbe hsartb,and Llora clasped her tiny hands and chirped: ‘ Oh—«o sweet • When you get to Hea­ven, don’t yon reckon you will sit in the choir ? Once more,—oh I do—please.• What a hungry little beggar you are 1Come sit in my lap —and I will hum you a dear little tune. Then you must positivelyscamper away to bed, yonr mamma will scold ns both,—and your Mammie also. A tall yellow woman with a white hand­kerchief bound tnrban-etyte aronnd her head, came stealthily forward, and said : ' Miss give her to me, I went downstairsfor a drink of water, and when I got back I missed her. Come baby, lot me carryyon to bed or yon will have tbe croup, and the doctor's might out yonr throat.' • Wait mammie till she sings that little ■■T BY our 50 cent TEA, E QUAL In Btrength utfl flavor to 91.00 Tea, tho China Tea House. tune she promised ; then I will go.' Regina sat down in a low-cnshionedchair, took the little girl on bar lap, and while tbe early head nestled on her shoul­ der, and one arm clasped her n*rk, sherested her chin upon the brown hair, aud sung in a very sweot, subdued tone,—themost eoothing of all lullaby straws,— Wallace's "Cmdls Soag." ' As she proceeded the turbaned head oftbe nurse kept time, swaying to and fr* in the background, and a sweeter picturenever adorned canvas, than that which Mr.Palma watched in front of his library fire, —and which yb^ographed itself indeliblyupon b» memory.

They therefore called a meetlug of tho Association At half past seven, and proceeded in procession to tho Station, headed by tho Ingersoll Band. Over 125 members of tho Association joined in tho procession at tho start, and hundreds more fell iu Hao on tho way down to tho station. There must havo boon from 150b to 2000 peoplo at the station when tin, train arrived. This immcn^b crowd cheered lus­ tily when it was brought to a stop, and tho honored gentlemen made their appear­ ance on tho platform, Sir John Macdon­ ald, Lady Macdonald aud Dr. Tupper wore nt onco introduced to tho crowd, aud after a few wards of welcome, from the boilers of tho party in Ingersoll, the presi­ dent of tho association, Mr. G. K. Brown, presented a hnudsoiue boquot oftiowers x> Lady MaodouJd. As tho time was short ceremony had to bo dispensed with, Sir John, however, thanked tho Association and the assembled multitude for this additional and impromp­ tu demonstration which ho could only i take as an additional assurance of tho con­ fidence the people placed in him. Ho be­ lieved ho was surrounded by good and ca- pablefmcn who aided him with their valu­ able assistance, while, if ho should bo called from tho sphere of action, ho knew that ho was leaving good mon behind him to take his place. Dr. Tupper was then loudly called for, and ho had only titno to return thanks for the kindly feeling winch tho pooplo showed to tho great leader of tho party, before the train moved off, amidst tho hearty cheers which resuuuded until the train was out of hearing. A meeting was subsequently held in the Association rooms. Tho chair was occu­ pied by tho president and short speeches , woro made by Messrs.

Every honest publisher will also thaak them for the aid they havo afforded them in main­ taining their competition for business by fairmeans, against the fraudulent practices of dis- hnnest rivals. Messrs. Bowcll A Ca, aloneof Newspaper Directory publishers, have hadthe courage to undertake the task of ditcrim- inating among the statements of news] apcra,and to face the lioatility which such a course was rare to excite at eng those wl.o profited hy misrepresentation. Notwithstanding the“ crashing ” artiules that from time to limehare Leun hu 1x1 at him, sometime* by parties who ought to have known better, th'sy havopersevered in their course and they have li«4 their reward. Their publication has taken the first place ae a standard authority amongAmerican Newspaper Directories, and a refer­ence book for very large advertiser end adver- Comlnlon Day in Ingersoll. We are glad to announce"that steps are being taken to celebrate Domfuion Day iu Ingersoll in a truly loyal and becoming manner. Tho celebrations of ournatul day in years past havo been something to be proud of, and wo understand that on this occasion greater efforts than ever will bo put forth to make tho celebration this year of such a nature that it will eclipse every other attempt in the past. An excellent comniittoo has been struck and wo bare little doubt but that the most extravagant de­ sire of tho greatest patriot will be fully real­ ised. It is an occasion which should be celebrated with the utmost joy and enthu­ siasm. Our country, since confederation, has prospered to a degree which was hard­ ly anticipated by the most sanguine, and although tho general depression which has effected tho whelo civilized world has bad its influence upon Canada, yot wc do not believe that it has been felt to such an ex­ tent us it has in many other countries. Wo have many things to bo grateful for, aud with tho bright prospects which uro before us, wo feel that a day of rejoicing for our national existence would ba a proper ac­ knowledgement of tho many blessings with which we uro favored. This, too, is he tenth anniversary of that day whichushered tho Dominion of Canada into exis­ tence, and as such it is worthy of especial consideration. Let us join together andcelebrate tho completion of tho first decade of our nationality in sucli a manner that it wijl be looked back to as one of the red letter days of our lives. God save theQueen.

Wo would call otir readers’ attention to a very valuable woik which is now being introduced into our town. We refer to “ Wood’s Bible Animals." The book is a most valuable ono, beautifully got up, and should bo in the hands of every Christian family. Dr. Fyfe, principal ef tho C. L. Institute, Wcodstock, says of it:— " I have Loen long acquainted vrith Rev. J. G. Wood’s writings, and rspeemlly with bis best book ’* Bible Animals.” It is the very best book on this subject accessible toEnglish readers. Its circulation will materially promote the accuracy of people’sknowledge in regard to the animals to which the Bible allndes." Every household should be supplied with a copy of this work.I cordially raaoiumend “ Wood’s Bible Animals " as a most instructive and inter­esting work. The leputetiaw of tho author -is a sufficient voucher of iu general accur­ acy. Sunday School teachers will find itespecially usefaf. The book »a bMutifully get up and ia enriched in value by the an-1 pended essays of Dre. MeCosh and March. The more sneh reading is encouraged the better it will be for the public.Bsavun 8.

Mr. Foster, pathinarter road divisionNo. 21, stated that l!ie statute labor on that division would do very little toward it and asked tha Council to do somotbiugto assist them. Ou motion of Mr. Brown, seconded by Ellis, tho commutation of Henry Wilsonfor bin road work in 1876, $7. was appro­ priated to road division No. 21, aud that D. II. Gilbart be commissioned to expendthe same. . Council adjourned for one hour. Council resumed.Messrs. Narcckivcll and Brown reported they had examined the 11th con. lino west, and found that it will require a ditch ouboth rides of tha road nearly half a mile: There is a temporay ono on ono side ; also two culverts which are of very little use.There will bo required two good culverts. Tho best way for tho present will be toraise the road sufficiently that the water will not run over it, and tho 11th con. east is in a very bad stalo and requires to beditched and the dirt thrown iuto tho road and will require dirt drawn upon it to make a fair passable road.Mr. Ellery applied to have a diteh cut on the south ride of tho 3rd cou., as the water is Jammed up and flcnxls his land sothat he gets no use of it. The- diteh will require to about40 rods.Mr. Cassidy applied to have a culvert put across tho road on 4lh con. for an out­ let to a ditch said ditch bting too shallowand requires deepening.
