T. Biilinnync," Bolloville ; J. McKergow, Montreal ;.W. A. Hazzard, New York ; L. B.Arnold, Rocbertcr; J. T. Bell, Bellovillo ; eagerly searched for first-class goods, and coull scarcely be Induced to touch the in­ ferior grades at anytprice. Their was yet another and highly important advantage “in scenting a good quality of cheese, and that wns that it sustained and tended to elevate Canada as a cheese producing country. The speaker read extracts from which he showed that it was tho quality of Canadian-checse that the English pro­ ducers were most afraid of. It was there­ fore the wisest policy for Canadians to use the utmost circumspection to prevent any deterioration in tho quality, or any impair­ ment in the reputation of this national pro- .duct, and lie would urge at the same time the advisability ofi placing dislinetiva and patent marks on every individual cheese to ensure its identification ns Canadian. After quoting figures to show the growth and ex­ tent of the cheese trade, he expressed it as his opinion that tho production of chaoso for theBuglish market had reached the utmost limit to which it cout.l ba carried with safety, and that it would bo much better for formers to abstain frem chot&e making and turn their attention to tho manufacture of butter on tho sama co­ operative principle which had proved so successful in tho sister product. The great merit of a factory system of butter making would be, that while it was sure to attain at least a reapectabls degree of cxcellouca, jt imparted to the products a uniformity atUunaLhi under no other system, and uni- formity'more than any other property wont to tho foundation of a national reputation. Some Iriuta and suggestions were thou made with respect to tbo processes of but­ ter making, the use of cream utsrnifa, method of churning, etc. Cheese having now reached its safe and profitable limit, and the fertility of the soil having bociino impaired by constant cropping, so tln>t Canada could no longer compete in cereals with the fertile West, it was the b.itter making and the meal trade that tho farm­ ers of Ontario would have to rely upon for tho continuance of their property. As it Prof. Bell Hid not think so. II" also took exception to the statement of Mr. Me-Kergo, in reference to soar cream making the beet butler. He always thought that when (he cream began to become sour, itstarted to decompose. afc. Mr. E. A. Barnard, of Quebec, inquired ,if all the Canadian stea mere had a refrigera­ tor fur public use. He had heard that al­ though they had refrigerator* on board thevessels they belonged to a private firm ioToronto. He also made refer even io ice- bouK;a, giving ns his idea (hat an ice-hensabuilt under the ground and covered with ice the heat. ■ «... Mr. E. Casswell held a different opiniento Mr. Barnard in regard to the fca-honso, stating that it would be a very-expensiveway. Ho suggested that a cold Toom ba bnitt in the centre and ice placed around tiio sides. This Would bo, ho thought, abelter wav. Mr. McKergo slated that there were refri­ gerators on all the mail steamers, but hobelieved that a Toronto firm ha<l a prior claim, but in the hot season, when butter would most likely be shipped, the firm,who bnly exported dead moat, would not need them. Ho thought ,refrigerators,would bo put on all the vessels if freight, enough was only premised to make it pay. C. E. Chadwick, Esq., Mayor oD Inger­soll, then came forward and said : Mr. President,—With your penuurion Irise to submit a resolution out of respect tothe memory of our late fillow laborer.

Tho corresponding in- < Creasa in butter had been only 3.3 per cent. Tho total value of diet so exported for the nine years ending 1877 was $21,- , 838,G19, and of butter 9*21.957,571. show­ ing a balance of over three millions, or about 15 per cent, in favor of bnttor over cheese.

Hog. X. A. Wiu -abd next addressed th* meeting on •< Tbe Outlook of Dairying in America; and.the Outlook for os? *urph* goods, andnew style* uf Ohoese demanded for fta trede." Mr. Willard commenced by saving that America for Rlong time has had hfat anuuateurpltis of dairy products, acd that we have relied upon England forthe ntoM part to dear our market*. The greht ptoduce merchanta of London, Liver­ pool’, Bristol and Glasgow for tho past 14 year* or more, have uniformly hvld out thoidek that Briltun could take all our surplus • butter and cheese at fair prioes, providing it was ofgwod qnnlity ; and’this assurance,whidf B«* generally been made good, bad stimulated produetioa tare and helped tobuild uti an interest that is now of enor- Indus proportions. And tho groat questionainifii dairymen to-day is: “How near 1>avo wo reached the limits of overproduc­ tion?"' rTho low prices of cheese the past year has lakec dairymen by surprise. Dur­ing the twenty yenta previous to 1879 dairy product* have borne good prices,an) dairying camo to be regardfd as the most profitable branch of farm industry. Dairy farms commanded extraordinary prices—the opinion generally prevailing tbid there would be no shrinkage on such fail'd*, on account uf the uniformly steady prites tbat could bo maintained for dairy pro^c*.’ The pastyear must have mater­ ially changed these views, since dairy farm* have shrunk in value from 80 to 50 ptft Cent., and dairy goods have shrunk in price in th* same proportion. It wasthought by soma tbit production would in­ crease, 'especially in the West arid in Cuutfffs, And with this exportation many were hoping tbe prices for dairy goods tuight'soou advance to old rates aud be maintained. These views, he said, were not generally entariained by dealers and thoso who were supposed to be well ac- qtiairtod with supply and demand. He thought wo could not looked for any de­ crees* of production in Canada. Thedominion hs* an immense stretch of cbesp 1 .arfb Well adapted to dairying, and Ibero is probably no branch of farming that willrealize better profits aero** the Hoe than dairying, even at still lower rates than have rulud tbe past year, aud the same,lie thought, will apply to most pointa iu the West and Northwest. The facility with Which grain can ta grown at the M'eetTuust always make th* supply large, Imt the cost of gelling it to markets on tbe i ca-board often left but Scanty profits toThe producer, nud he finds it more to his i;dvantp3* to tarn his snrplus grain intoTtiilk, pork and beef. Heuce, with cheap fapds and cheap cows, wo must lock for an ibtreaee'Vatlu’r than a decrease of dsirying iu the West and Northwest. He estimat­ed the surplus of American cheese for 1878 above home oouraraption, to b* not far feu'm ISff.nOOMPO pound*. The cheese ex­port* from Canada the past year were at Iea*l 80,000,000 pound*, and they had been e.ljmated a* high •« 80,000,000 ponnd*. Th* exports from New York citv from Jan. ary 1858 to January 1879, were 184,000.000 pound*. W* have Then in round numbers: Ckuadtau exports, 60.000,000 pound*;United States, 184,000,000 pound*; m»k:Jug the total export* from America during 1878,.IM .000,000‘ pound*. According toth* best Eoglfeb authorities based on offi­ cial return*, tfie annnal i production of cheese in Great Britain I* M.2.000AX) pounds. From statbtio* it I appear* that th* animal consumption nt cheese- >mBritain t* 504,000,0b0 pound*. Now by ,deducting tbe annual mske, 812,080,000, we have only 192,000,000 of pound* tu ta required from abroad to meet the Englishdemand*. According to official statistic* ttai-e were imported into Great Britain in 1877 185,000.000 pound* of cheese, and af this atan» 50,Wfl,ta*0 earn* from HollandAtii.oUirr part* of Europe. But as all of U»i* qtaqmtaports of the United States dunot gw to RngfanJ. the receipts of our * cheea* in Britom daring 1877 were at no . lime above her consumptive demand. But ooiMidvriag the largely increased export*in I'Wfl from the United State* end Canada, and il fa plainly evident wo are .givuiguftr English enslomeni about as much a* they ean abvariy handle, for the chevss sent from America and Holland in1878 *m not ta far from UO.OOO.OQO pound*.

He oatd : KWEET CUED VB. ACI». An effort has been mad* of late to show that an acid developed in the ourd during cheese-makibg is iojurieus, and that the cheese is mode aror* iudugestible on thisaccount. It ie qnite proper that this opiu- ion be fairly discussed, and I am quite free toeay that to my mind the theory got up is not substantiated by faote- In the first place, by some strange misaoKCoptkin, the "high prited Cheddar*” of England are cited as an example , of fine, digestible cheese, miule on the wno acid,” or so-ca'led “sweet curd" process. This fa n mistakenidea, and all argument based on such n premise falls from lack of foundation in fact.. One of the distinctive features of theNngliab Cheddar process is a development of acidifv in the curds, aud it* recognition by lhe cheese-makers of this country has been one of th* chief cause* of improve­ ment in Amerieau cheese since 1863.. Pre­ vious to that date what ia known a* "sweeteurd chee**” wa* tbe rule iu Amerieau dairi**, and our cheese had a bad, and I may *ay, a wretchedly bad reputation iu foreign markets. Mr. Pond; an American cheese-maker who w*nt to England iu 1864 far lhe purpose of studying English dairy processes, and comparing American cheea* with that of English make, veryforcibly describes the appearance of Ameri­ can cheese as ho found il ou sale among tbe great produce merchants of Londuu,Liverpool, Bri*p>l» and other chief cities of Britain. Ho says, (aud I quote from re­ port American Dairy tn on’s Association, 1865:) “Wbat docs American cbc-. s« ap­pear like when in England?” "If you were to take a piece uf apor;ge, give it thecolor of a brick, the consistency of bar soap, and tlie taste and smelt of tho original grease, with an addition of tho tincture of. ussofaotida and the bite of papper-sguee, you would have fair repre- acntjitton of much of tho cheese I sow there." Would thia description induce any one to go tack to the “Sweet curds” of that time T and indeed* the papers have made 'recent'of 8976781 lamentable failures dur- ,tog lhe past jear by persona attempting to improve their cheese on the sweet curd process. I caft refer to this process the more feelingly as I recall in memory whenI first began chcese-mnking in Herkimer tn 1848. Those were tho days of'“lenky cheeses,” “huffy cheeses," “cheeses filledwith gas" of horrible odor, which we were compelled to prick with n long needle ; and not nnfreqnently the subject would become so demoralized that it was thrown to tbe hogs or burned in the earth. I have seen cheeses in some of lhe best dairies swell np und literally crawl out of the bandage.In those days many cheeses rotted down on tho shelves or in buyers' bunds, and even so late as 1859-60 Amerieau ebqesewas so badly made that immense quanti­ ties were thrown into tho dock after com­ ing into the hands of Mr. I’rrry who that year purchased nearly the entire make of American dairies, and he always affirmed it was the loss on account of poor, bad­ly made cheese that forced Lim to tbe wall.In the so-called sweet curd process, the advice is given to "draw the wln-y early— while sweet” and then heap up the curds in the vat to mature. This is all well en­ough ; und tho plan is uol by nny means new. In the report ou English dairying and Cheddar cheese-making before th«American Dairymen’s Association in i860. I gave some cotiversatiou which I bad with Dr. Voclcker, of Loudon. I quotefrom ths report of the association, page 41: “Another point of importance ho (Voelcker) said, in cbeese-makinL’. aud on* not generally unddtotood wan iu rela­ tion to th* whey. H* would draw the whey sweet. The reason ho gave was that you can never tell what matter yon have or wbat you are dealing with in ‘the whey. It may contain taints of the worstcharacter. You can uot well determine tbe degre* of its ascidity, nn<l hv-nco great? risk* are run iu stoeuiugtliecnrd for a longtime iu the fluid. He would prefer to draw the whey ns early ns possible and allow the curd to-undergo its proper clmngo or ar­ rive at maturity'heaped up in tho bottom of tho vnt." I did not understand Dr. Voelcker nt that time ns advocating a “noacid curd" in Cheddar cboi'Fo-makmg, for he alluded to acid development in this pro­ cess ns one of its well-known features.Aud iu his numerous analyses of checsrho gives the highest praise to Mi.

And although Voelober was the first to make tb* assumption in a paper some 2 or 8years back, that acidity fa not essential to cheese-making, ha docs pot argue, so far as I have seen, that It is jn any Way injur­ ious to Ui* flavor or quality of the cheese.If we are to depend upon England for tak­ ing our surplus product, we must meet the teste* and wishes of consumer* Ibero, andfet them regulate thrir digeatim in their own way.

The great pcint, I whelher home or foreign sale was contem­ plated, is to produce au article *o good tho£ it would be in demand. Such pro­ duct* as are wanted because ef their exovl-fence, will always sell, both at home aud abroad.Mr. Ballant yme did not agree with tbe previous speaker that lhe English people^ ur iu fact any people preferred acid-madecheese. Tbe cbeddar process was th* one which made cheoso of the best quality, and which always commanded thalnghesl price.The first consideration iu connection with cheese-making wus that pure milk should bo. obtained, because if the milk was im­pure by no process could a good article be produced. Mr. Lohke said he had made cheesethis year by drawing off tho whey while il was quite sweet, and ibis process had proied successful, aud he thought ta couldmake it *ven more successful asxt year. He approved of the cbeddar principle. Mr. Bal lantynk, in answer to a ques­ tion, Bftid that ut hia factory tho whey wu drawn when it was jtist turuiug acid. Tne whole process of cliecse-makiug dnpeududon the amotn, of rennet and Bull put iu aud Kitmtinn to the degreo of aridity, but especially in tho manner in which the work­ men conducted their opsratijns. Ho wouldagain impress ou tbe lueudug tbe great ad­ vantage to bo derived by following thocheddar process in cheese-making. Mr. WlLLAUD cxplaiuvd that there was nothing at all iu bis address recommend­ing U’.o manufacture of ncid cheese. lie simply meant to state that ho recommend­ ed the making of cheese by what was call­ ed the acid process. He was snro that thequality of American cheese had been great­ ly improved since tbe introduction of tbe cheddar- process.Mr. Arnol d spoke strongly against tbe process of making lhe cheoso acid by bold­ ing the curd for some time in the sourwhey. Tho cnid should ba ripened in the vat after the whey was drawn. In making cheese there was requisite the development of no ncid nt all.Mr. Wil lard did not agree with this fast statement. Ho held that au acid develop­ ment was a necessary principle iu makingcheese. Mr. Mor ton being asked to give bis opinion, said that at his factory the wheywas drawn off ou the first indication of acidity. Ho advocated the principle of drawing milk only ouco a day. . ■ !■■■ '■■■.. 3^4 Uesart.

Tho Chairman, Mr. Ballaulyne, Pre«i- dent'elect, then introduced Iler. W. F.Clarke, who delivered .an interesiiug ad- , dress i u “ Doiiving find its relation to ! general farming." He recommended the advisability of pursuing dairying, not as a . special industry on the farm, but as a’ branch of a mixed husbandry, to be pnr- sued more or less upou every Jarm. He believed hi the idea uf having as many in­dustries on a farm a* possible, and ho* was consequently adverse to using the farm for Boms'Dne specialty, such as dairying ornrodiftiijg nothing bat cereals. Farmer* should not destroy iho *ail of their laud by growing only grain ; dairying to a certain degree acted as an antidote to the too ex­ clusive grain cropping, which impoverilUeJso much of <>ur soil, and it alao was a mean* ot producing manors necessary for the land. A farmer should tnanur* at hast ooe-tenlh of the land he ploughed nunually. . lie eonld remember when mannro wns considered injurious to land by the more ignorant <?!««» of farmers, snd noted instances where farmer* had earted their manure to the river in th* trjuter season to bo carried away wbeu th* ieo broke up in the spring. (Laughter and oh I oh 1) Ho said he rupposed the oh 1eh ! was iuteudni] as a hint that Ulis state ment was far-fetched, but ho was stating facts. Further he would stele that be hadknown farmers who had moved their barn aud stable* to get away from the accumu­ lation of the manure of half a century.He belived there w« re score* and hundred* of farmers even in Uii* enlightened nine­ teenth century who did not properly under-stand th* properties of manure. They imagined that all that was necessary wa* a good heap of *omething they called manure, when an investigation of the yardwould show that nearly all the fertilising qualities bad been wa*b*d out and carried away to the nearest stream by th* rain*and anqw* of th* winter and spring. Th* growing of clover was * good .meana of -maintaining th* fertility of th* aoil, bnl tbi* fact was known or b«hved by a very few farmers. Clover ebnanmed great quan­ tities of nitrogen from the air, and daringthe growth tbi* wa* absorbed from tb* plant’by th* soil, which became thereby creaily eqriched. ■ Red clover hay formedth* best fodder for cattl* and all kind ofatoek, and it was advantageous to grow it for this reason alon*. Bom* objroafore were mad* to clover hay aa feed for cattle, but il it w*r* only cut in th* proper lime,, ffnd.prooefly cured, no better iorage could . fa* hud for cattle, or aven horeee. If on*. tenth of the arable land of n farm was sown in clover annnally, anetber tenth atth* hub* iioro faiog manured, th* ' farm would be wholly manured every fir* years, and it* fertility would oonaequautly never diminish. H* concluded til* ramatka by •xptooinff some cartoon* lUustrating the farm and stock of Farrear HlpfUefa and ,tljoe* of Farmer Thrifty. Tb* rest of tbo evnripB was devoted to i answering questions sake* by members re- <lative to varlona details in cfieeM-makicg. < Mr. chairMr. Soott advocated lb* prinaipte of manufacturer* pulling their best products on the home market in preference to that uf the foreign cohsumer. He held that th* demand at home could be greatly.iucreae-ed if only a good quality of cheese were placed on lhe market. Ail kinds of cheese, good or bad, klwuld be shipped induorimi-■nately. Mr. Casswelu and Mr. Chadwick spoke to thu same eifort.Mr. Gkamt was certain that manufactur­ er* would nrt retain their best cheese at home when they could got a cent a poundmore by shipping it. Mr, Lossee thought that none but thel»»t quality of chceso cpald.be shipped to England. Sir. Loasr.E moved, saconded by Mr.Moxt, “That in the opinion of thie meet­ ing It bbculd be a principle among factory- nror. not to take the milk of a patron whobu* had bad 'milk rejected by a neighbor­ ing factory.” Carried unanimously.The Weekly Market Committee reported a* follows: “It was moved by Mr. Bal lan-T7NE, seconded by Mr. J. L. Gr ant, aud unanimously cafried at a committee meet­ ing held to consider the advisability of marketing cheese positively weeklv, andforming depots at the principal centres, Stratford, Ingersoll, London and Wood- stock, it was uuauimou.-ly agreed that thepast system of marketing cheese, if carried out in future would prove more disastrous than it ha* even heretofore; also that a very large percentage of the factorymen never have un opportunity of marketingtheir cheese at the proper limo, conse­ quently it is derirable to hold weekly markets, and that fuctorymou sell weekly aud ship to depots that may bo fixed upon." Mr. Robinson pointed cut that if factory mon continued 10 sell only once a monththe credit of Canadian cheese would con­ tinue to diminish in England. Wbat theEnglish buyers wanted was cheese that would arrive to them in a fresh condition, and thia result could never be attained un­ less factorymeu sold their cheese as earlyas pohciLle. The spee 1y mauuer in which American cheese wa* shipped told strongly against the Canadian trade. Although the idea ef establishing depot* as proposed io tho resolution was, he thought, somewhat premature, such a step could not bo long delayed. Such action would soon bo abso­ lutely necessary if they wished to save the credit uf Canadian cheese in the eye* ofEnglish buyers. Most of the moniing’s session was oc­ cupied in discussing tho subject of the report. It was finally adopted by a major­ ity of 23 to 7. On motion of Mr. Losses, seeoaded byMr. Rouixson. a committee comjxised uf the following gentlemen was appointed to arrange lor the regular markets, as recom-tnnndcd in the above report: Messrs.

Wjoojtjck CiitjRcn Troubl es.—A correspondent writing from Woodstock on S'iudt»y say*.—Great excitement has pre­ vailed here all day, owing to the trustees ot the Methodist Church having kept the doors locked. Previous difficulties have existed between the pastor, Rev. W. R. Parker, aad th* trustees and official board for sotn* time past, and the culminating point liso at length boon roachal. Th* im­ mediate cans* of to-days proceedings may h* briefly ststud. Tais is the seooud auuivarsiry of the opening of the church, au 1 at tho desire of the con- grogxtiou, the trustees in the abeenca of Mr. Parker sent au invitation to th* Rev. Mr. Clarkson, of Brantford, through whoa* initrumenlahty. wUbij stationed here, the- ohuroh was built, to f reach annivsusry sennoos, which he very kindly consented to do. When Mr. Parker rcturued and teamed what had been done, h* immedia­ tely telegraphed to Mr. Clarkson that th* trustees ha d trespsuwd on Lis rights and that b« would not give op his pulpit. About two weeks ago be yielded, and him­self wrote to Mr. Clarkson requesting him to com*, and again the tetter gentleman replied, eoosenUag, and it Waa announcedlast Sunday from she pulpit that tbs Mr- viees to-day would b* eouduoted by Mr.Clarkson. On Friday, however, freshtrouble arcs* owing to tnattm ot difference between the pwstor and the quarierolyboard. The full number of stewards, a tmrt of whose duty it is to audit books of ths church, have not ba appointed. OuSaturday morning Mr. Porker and one of those ateoted want to th* treasurer and pew steward and damanded th* books, but theywar* ntessd, on the ground that they had no right or authority to muko Ur* demand.This roused Mr. Parker's wrath, and heinunidintoly telegraphed Mr. Cbxksfo (earn that Mr. W. A. Crotnwall, who baa carried on an extensive boot and shoo tied* in Ingeraoll for some time past is about to give up business her* and has announced an immense clearing eale ofhis stock. The stock is iu good condi­ tion and will b* sold cheap for cash, This will be an excellent opportunity for thepublie at large to secure bargains fa this line while we sfaoarely regret that Mr. C.is leaving us, we inuit icngratnlata our reailara on th* exoelteui ehanoe it affords them of shoeing «p at low prices. ' M. E. CnuxcH.—Srbies or Sirmom*.— The Rov. S. Card will during the next seven Sundays, commencing with the Sod of March, deliver a scries of fourteen ear- moDl in the M. E. Church here.

To appease his righteous indignation hegets off a fling at a party of youug men from Ingersoll who visited the " burg " afew evenings ago, members of tho Owl Club, we piomgae, as he ruado a "drive" at them last week.

The Prince of Periodical s—For house­ hold reading, Wood's Maoazinx. the March number of which is already before us, has justly been styled "The Prince of Periodi­ cals." It is a well known fact that the really smart thing* which make any author's reputation are but a small pro­ portion of all bis published writings. Mr. Wood's plan is to select from the world of literature only the very betl articles, which are clatiifisd into about thirty difforsntdepartments, comprising almost every variety of amusing, interesting and instruc­ tive household topics.

Many of our townspeople have already hoard these gentlemen in theirtruthful and vivid readings and recitations, and with ono accord they have pronounc, ed them excellent nnd far above the aver­age. We trust (bey may be favored wiih an overflowfag bouse as wo foci assured that those who go will not regret th*limo spent. The pres* ihrongboiit Canada and the United Slates speak fa the highest terms of these gentlemen—some of thejournals acknowledging their inability to find words sufficiently demonstrative to express their appreciation of their extra­ordinary abilities. Foresters' Concert.—As announced in our last issue the Forester*, of the Inde­ pendent Order of our town, will give a concert in their Court Room, which will be handsomely decorated for the occa- ■ion, on Friday evening next.

The annual meeting of the patrons of the Harris Street Cheese Factory will be held at the factory, West Oxford, on Thursday, March 6th, fur the purpose of making arrange­ment* for th* coming Beason and other buai-neaa iu couucctiion with the factory. On Thursday hut (he noeple of Til son-burgh wore startled by the announMinont that a young woman named Xmaaa Louis*Rodger* had oommiUed suicid* al the AirLin* Hotel there by taking a does of lau­ danum. Tlio raiiort proved to b* traa, andDr. Moor* field an foqueet on the romaius when the following facts were oMcited :— On Wedneedsy afternoon W. Hogarth,whodrives th* baker’s waguon for Mr. Wilcox brought Mira Rodgers np frosn Now Eng­ land to the Air Lino station. She told himthat she was going to Aylmer, where she had been learning the dreu-making busi­ ness, by the evening train. Instead ofdoing so she came up town about six o’clock, nnd purchased a two-ounce vial of laudanum gt Thompson k Co.'s drug store.Sue then went over to Walter Brown’s jewellery shop and seemed to be fa con­ siderable distress. Upon enquiring whattbo matter was she sold she wanted to see Zeno Hubbard, and sooibed ao anxious that Brown agreed to go duwn to NowEngland for him. The girl then wont back to the Air lune Hotel, and between efaht and Hine o'clock Brown and Bichard Wil­liams drove up to the hotel on their way to New F.ngfauJ. When they went in the girl wee lying on the lounge, and appeared toI be hardly able to rise. Sb* uetned to La ia trouble, but would tot tell wbat waa tbo matter uu.*’l fast as Brown wu going out, when she tota' him that she had taken four ounces of lauda^uid. Ho did Rot believeher, but as something vCM evidently wrong, young Williams stopped al 'b* hotel with her while Brown drove to Jf** England,She acted so strange that William* notstay fa the room long with her. Bb.'w'*en ton and eleven o’clock tho hoteLkeepe>’a wife went in to show the girl a room forthe night, and found heron the sofa ap­ parent ly asleep. She could not awakenher, and shortly afterwards tho landlord tried to rouse her. but without success. On taking her hand he found it cold and stiff, and a farther examination revealedthe awful fact that the girl was dead. Dr. Moore was at once exiled, bnl the rash girl was boynud the rea«h of noy human aid.The vial which bad contained the lau­ danum was found in tho bosom of herdress, empty. Although the cireumstan-tail evidence seemo to ehow that death wa* caused bv laudanum, no trace of it wasfound fa tho stomach, and tho doctors areof the opinion that death may have been canaed by some corrosive poison, and ananalysfa of the stomach may be necessary. The potl marten examination also reveal­ ed the faet that she wa* about six week* gone in pregnancy.

Dodgen was driving along on tho 10th Con. recently a span of horses behind him from some cans* or other took fright and ran, jumping against the buggy of Mr. Dodgen broke it to pieooeand threw the occupant out. The' horses damage was done more than th* smashing,of tho buggy. A gentleman the other day drove up to Messrs. Rockett’s store and after letting acouple of ladies out the horse took fright and ran away upsetting the cutter and driver. The horse ran for nearly a quarterof a mile and was only brought to a stop on rosching the toll gate. Although the mau was not killed he was badly hurt. Mr. T. Banfield is about to move fromCnlioden to th* northwest and be will be much missed here whan h* leaves. The United Board of High and Public School Trustees met on Monday evening.

PRESCOTT. * I believe they're poor as poieon,' -said Mrs. Stare, glancing across to where baropposite neighbor, Miss Fane, stood tend­ ing her plants : 'it’s a pity that old harri­dan wouldn't give up the ghost and leave ' 'em something handsome. But, you see, ahe'out ’em off, fid’ to speak, wlign Mrs.Fane married. ' She woe Mrs. Fane’s half- nhnt, And had brought her up, though I’vs heard aay she had to earn,evurything shehad, and more too, .wailing upon the -whims of her annt, Miss Parrott; but whenit came to marriage, aha took her own ad­ vice, and gave up Squire Snow*, hud hia fortune and took poor little Fane,jibear:ist,who was'always just going to surprise lhe world with some masterpiece, but who didn't earn Iris salt; which surprised no­body. But * the whirligig of Time brings in his rs-venges,’ I've heard; and after MisaParrott bfd given Miss Fane up to poverty aild hardship, and pampered her other nieces and given them her eyeteeth, whatdo they up und do, when they find she's i» L>r the small-pox caught on a journey,but juel Ijaye tier and the hquse to go to dealt notion 'together? Of. course, Mrs. Fane steps in and takes care of her, andcarries lhe direaso home to Miss Garris, who loses her good looks by that means. Isay, it's an unfortunate family.—Miss Par­ rott never got fairly over it, they tell qae, yon see, it left her sort of broken, and shefinally took to her bed for good, and Mrr. Fane had to bring her home, for she wasneglected and snubbed by her own servants in her own house. And how they live, heaven knows. 'Hie old lady's got moneyenough and to spare, but precious little does Mrs. Fane see of it. Misa Parrott pays her eight dollars a week for board and attend­ance and what not—pays it grudgingly, und tells ’em they make money at that, and they'll have to answer for taking ad­vantage of a poor old woman's necessities. But I'm hoping she'll leave ’em something handsome yet, unless she’s got a heart ofstone.’ * She is very feeble,', said Dr. Eustis Gil­ bert, with his eyes on their neighbor's win­dow. • and very irritable. Miss Carrie is a martyr to the cause.’ * Yes, and bow pals and balf-etarved shelooks!' returned his. landlady. " I don’t believe they have half enough to cat; bow can they ? I’ve noticed that tho veryclothes on the line were patched, and I’m not-ono who looks after my neighbors’ af--faim vary sharply, neither. •Lost all her good looks, has she?’ thought Dr. Gilbert, his eyes still wander­ing toward bin young neighbor. * She cer­ tainly it thin as a shadow and pnlo as a spirit? he confessed aloud.‘ From whom was Mies Parrott’s money inherited"?'asked Dr. Gilbert, idly. ‘She didu't-mako it, I unapt ct.'* Bless you ! from her own father, to be Mirer, and there's tho sin it. Wasn't bo Mrs. Fane’s mother's father too, I'd hko tontk ? and wbv doesn't she have her share ? I'vo no patience with folks who keep means that doesn’t b< long to 'cm, even if 4is left ’em in 8nnebody*8 will made out of spite. You see, old lady Parrott and Mrs. Fane's mother were half-sisters; she hadether sisters on her mother's side, Miss 1’aiTott had; and the nieces who loft her tothe mercy "of tho "small-pox are their daughters ; and ten to one they'll have tho properly, instead;of tho Fanes, though itall came by way of Mrs. Fane'e own grandfather, Grandfather Parrott. They a*y he was a criisty old fellow, and tookoffense with bis daughter’s husband, Mrs. Fane's father, and never got over it, bqt disowned the whole kit of 'em, and left allbls money to bis eldest daughter, that old virago over yonder. But when her sisterdi<d a poor widow, Miss Parrott took her only child—that' is, Mrs. Fane — and brought her up, as I told you. Wasn't itcruel ?’ * Cruel enotiRh,’ said Dr. Gilbert, * but of course she wO! make it right in herwill.’ ■ Perhaps so, if her old heart isn’t hard­ened like Pharaoh's. If I were in your place, Dr. Gilbert, I'd give her a bint.' .* It doesn’t seem to bo my busiucss to in­terfere.* ' * It’s everybody's busiueas. to help the widow and tbo fatherless. Speaking of angels,*there she hr now—Miss Carrie,- I-mean. They want-you, I gue$5 ; the old 1/dy’s g*t au ill turn; glie's. always breatli-ing her last and frightening them half to death. Just you notice her poor little hands ; they are all chapped, and you candmokt see tbrongh ’em.’ : did more than notice thra ▼then tie met her in the hall; and held onsr 0* Hirn in bis own'broad palm, where Tttrembled a moment.
