MONEY TO LEND. BUSINESS STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL SAVINGS BANK BRANCH. CHAPTER XIV. tom's lkttkk. DAGNELLwaa surprised *Dd gratfiad at tha announ- YUCK Mooent which Violet Hilder-brandt had made to him. It was approaching tho end ; the mysterywhich surronuilod her, and against which he had protested, was rapidly drifting away.• Yes, I will toll your cousin my his­ tory,' Violet continued ; ‘ eh" will notjudge mo too quickly, o-rtisbelivo tno toosoon. Such woim-n as Ursula are very scarce, Mr. Dagnell. I shall be glad to seo her. It in advice like hers that Jshall profit by.'. • Yes,' said Tom, with a faint degree of hesitation visible ia him, for tho first time,at this exhibition of Violet's enlhusiam ;‘ she will be a good frieuil. She is shrewd enough, but her advice may not be, after all, the best for yon.'• Why not ?’ a4t Violet, wonderingly. ‘ She is impulsive,’ was the reply, • and I am not quite certain she is particularlywise. She sacrificed her whole fortnnefor one idea’, an.l she accepted mo ns her future husband for another. Clearer- headed women would have hesitated alittle longer in Ixith these instances.’ ‘ She ia unsdfish and truthful; that ia sufficient. She bad known troubla too,and I can trust her.’ snid Violet. ‘ Yon rony trust her with your life.’ said Tom, warmly ; • she is more of a harioneIhtin a womnn ; bnt her advice may not 1 e sound. She has no knowledge of tho world.''It is nil tho bet'er for her judgement upon me l) nt sho should not have any,' nr.swe-ed Violet quietly. ‘I can trust- hor more completely‘ V -rv good,’ said Tom. ‘ And n< w will you kindly take tun to Broodlands and introduce me to her ? Iwill not detain her very long,’ said Violet. ‘ L"t u« cet away from Birmingham at once. I nu> suto I miy ask this of yon.'• You may nsk nnv favor ot in the world. Miss Hilderbrandt,' Tom said, ‘nnd I shall bo only too glad to b*lp you. Butwe must rn>t act too precipntely. Yours is n cnse that requires more than ordinary reflection.'' Wbat db you suggest ?' she asked, an­xiously. ■ Extreme caution, if you wonld leaveBirmingham unwatebe*!,' s»id Tom. * It will be difficult to quit the town to-dny nnperceived, nnd with yonr father and hi«epics on the nl.’rt: and granted tliat we are successful in eluding their vigilance. I hero wonld ho a deal enriosity arotisodin this establishment at our sudden depar­ ture together.' ‘ I will go nlone,'sai*l Violet.i ‘ Yun will bo sem. and you will bo sus­ pected.’ Tom replied. *Ah, v«-s 1 I am hemmed in and defence­less. T<-11 me uh»t ymi think is th*- bet­ ter plan, then—yon are wiser than I,’ she at his signal, to add those few words of her own which w.mld make metiers olear, and interest Urania in her new friend ; and hew.is snprised once more at the repulity with her which sht dashed off a missiveto one whon *ha find never seen.’ Will that do ?’she said, passing the note across Io Tom.Tom toA it from her and pereused it. * I am anxious to trust in you and tellyon all the irntb,* she wrote. • I have •aid nothing to your cousin. I need abrave woman'• aympathy, and that you are brave nnd true I am assured. Let me come to Broadlsnda m quickly aa possible,and go away strengthened by your ceuaaal.* * Yes, that will do,’ said Tom, thought-fu’ly. She had set Ursula Daguell down as a wise womnn, after all, thought Tom : healmost wished bn Lad spoken less in favorot his cousin. He conld not tell why ; he bad hardly been prepared for the exhibi­tion of so much oanfi lence in his statementhe had been anxious to console Ursula as well as Vislet Hilderbrandt; ho had painted to Violet the picture of bis heroinein glowing colors, and os ho only saw it for himself, and as no one else ia all her life had seen it for a single instant. Hewas not satisfied ; it was all true enough, but be conld almost ituagii e ihtt ho was on the verge ot another mistake, so sudden had come to him a revulsion of the feelingwhich bad prompted hint to press UreuJa’e irieirtship upon the bewildered girl. * That will do,’ he said again. Thenaltera moment's further hesitation, which Violet did not perceive, ho closed tho let­ ter sud fastened it.* Sho will juilgo ns fairly—she will bo Violet Hildorbrandt'e friend.’be muttered to himself, a» ho dropped the letter in thnbox on Mr. Oliver’s table, where it won'd remain till the servant cams to clear it for tbo next dispatch from Birmingham. CHAPTER XV. AFTER DINNER. s»'v j U,'1. X''ING runite up their minds >v!a? T T ’ ton state of rest—to n patient a ' wailing for results--Tmn and ' t .Violet st emr-d to settle down.In a few hours they wore almost at home at Elm si io Hous*, and tho mystery about them seemed to recode into the backgroundamongst tho comm mplicea ot everyday life by which they were surroundo 1. Tom sent n groom to the * lien nnd Chick ins ’f>r his portmanteau,' with explanations and apologies, nnd found that it ha-t been delivered lost night, and no inquires m iduconcerning it afterward. Viotet Hii-ler brnndt’s Inggnge was already at tho raiM way station, packed and ready for depar­ ture. She bn-1 been prepared twenty-fourhours since, she said—and now there was time before them to reflect, to wait, to hope.They were quickly at their oxxo in tho mnuufactnrers's vast establishment, where there was no stint of Birmiugbaiu hospita­lity or warmth of welcome.Miss O iver took credit to herself for presnding Violet Hi'derbrandl to remain oday or two at Elmsite House ; and her pleasure was evinced by m my little ex- trnvagmees of demeanor, to which thereis no occasion to direct our renders' con- fitluntr, the one after her own heart, Fan­ ny Olixer thought and even said, nnd alleast it was satisfactory to Viotet Hflder-brandt to f< t-1 that sho was not regarded W A.

She whohas tsilh in yon that will lest her life will advise ma what to do—will know whether I dare ask your further help. I will, if yon will allow me, write a tew lines to beinclosed in your tetter to her.’ * Yes, yes.’ replied Tom, bouildered by this exhibition of sudden confidence inUrsula Daguell; ‘ it will pave tb« way for the meeting end explanation to follow.' * Yon think I do not trust you, Mr.Dagnell,* eaid Violet, with a sad smite, • and yet I take your cousin's virtues at yonr word, and will keep nothing from her.' •It will ptease Ursula very mnebtobethe first recipent of yonr confidence,' answered Tom ; but in bis heart he was not quite >osure of this—the whole position was not quite ao clear as he could wish it to be. There were two Ursulas before him, andthey were at variance with each other. The fretful Ursula of yesterday hurling at hiri and Violet her jealous invectives, and thewetoan who hsd saved the honse ef Dag-well from ruin and disgrace, were hardly to h" assimilated save by that atmng love for him which had rendered her both justand unjust, He returned to tha library, at Violet's request, to finish bis letter, to stale the whole teeta of the cam, and |he new lightwhich Mias Hilderbrand t ha J thrown np-m them bv her determination to confide Ur­ ania *, but the statement, after all, was notas eleer as he oould wish, and he found hlm**df floundering and blundering still amidst hia explanations. No. it was not aclear story to commit to black and while, and the man wb.o bated mystery felt that he was concocting a most mvaterious andnnaatisfatorv epistle.

Not always with success, though,* she added, with a sigh.‘It was not likely.’ * I thought on board the IFifch, from something which yon said to mo, yonrhome had been like mine ; bnt, after all, yours has been a happy life in compari­ son.’ she added, • and I was vsry muchmistaken.

I am happier, breathing the same air with them—all this is a new, brith, innocent world to me. Ihave known no home before.’ Her cheeks flushed and her eye* bright* i ened and dilated as she spoke. What a. little it would take to make a poor bunted > girl content, Tom thought, if ths ctends I were once dispelled about her life 1 What1 a past bars hod b»en in some dark, des- I perate way—and how different from his i own !

Ji was not an nnpleasantday aiElmdiaf House, when all tbonglkia of the uncertain - furture were set aside at last, as Tom * Dsenrll bad reoom mended that they> should be. It was wise to live in the pre- ■ sent; sufficient for to-morrow was theevil thereof; bare was oaa day to be mark­ed with a white atone. There was peace —evan happiness—for theea two in look- Tom's ear the exact suns he had given foreach article. When tho resources of tho establishment bad been exhibited, Mr. !

Slitberwick, in mild protest at tbe brothers’ muttered con vara ition ; and Tom felt an­gry with himself and every body else at having been called to «rder by the gno- maker. It showed that be was inatten­tive and indifferent to Miss Hihter- brandt s plnving, and this was not the case, only Marcus had been particularlyaggravating in this unconscious way.

Tom forgot the gun-makeria a few minutes, however; the spell of the wondrous mtwic was upon him agtio; hero were genius and power and n per­fect command of the mstrument. It was no wonder that Mr. Hilderbrandt was anxlaus for tbe return of bis daughter;there was a fortune in her and in theengagements ho conld make for her. • I heard yon play that at Beilin.

A slight flickeriug of tbe color in her cheeks, a glance toward the uncurtained windows at tbe end of th«drawing-room, and she was apparently at her ea*e. She turned a little arid* from the guests, and leaned over * table uponwhich were several drawing-room volumes, one of which sho opened, as though interested in its steel engraving*. Her small white baud might have shookfor an instant, but there was no one save Tom to perceive it. ‘ What can I do ?' naked Tom- ’ I amher* to obey all comma*'de.' ' Who watches us ?

See to bim, please, for me.'‘ But—’ Violet Hilderbrandt bad closed the book, rose, and crowed to the piano, where eb* appeared to ba dreply interested in theSlitberwick blunders on that much afflict- e,l instrament. She h*d wished to put an end to any further dialogue betweenTom and h«r»*lf; but ths old fear of dis­ covery had left her, or was it that the •vent having some, and all efforts to dalenhaervelion having failed most miaerably, •he wa* prepared for the w uat ?

Torn walked slowly back to ths houM, with tho tetter i<i tha breast pocket ofhis coat. The ease and asaarauce of tha boy who had brought the moMage puz­ zled him a great deal; the connection be­tween him and Mr. Hilderbrand! was diffi­ cult to guess at. although a strange su»- picten was gathering tore® within Tom’smind. Ho returned to tbs bouse, andpawed from the conservatory into the drawing-room; Mr. Slitberwtek*s rhap­ sody on tho piano bad reached a termin­ation. and he was disoonrsing upon the rnnsio of the future with Mias Hilder-brandt, who had been drawn into an ar­ gument with him. and w*a refuting quietly a few of his propositions. FannyOliver was listening and endeavoring to understand it all; Mr. aud Mrs. Oliver were listening also, but makiag no at­tempt to un lerstau J ; Mircnx D.tgnell sat bolt-npright in his cbair with bis eyes closed in slumber. • Ymi are fond octants.

I don’t know any thing about them tnysalf, I pay a very big bill for them every month,and that’s my part of thu trausaction/ said Mr. Oliver. Tom sit down ones more at the table,and it was not long before Mks Hildar-brandt broke away fmm the bonds of ar­ gument, and came back to her ohl place near him. The position had changedthan ; Fanny Oliver was beginning to sing, and Mr, Slitherwick t<» turn over the leaves of her music ; Marcus, ’who hadsuddenly opened hj» eyes, was looking dreamily at them both; Mr, and Mrs. Oliver were talking over a little table ntwhich the latter bad presided after dinner. • There fe the tnessege which yon expea-' ted,' Said Tom, passing the tetter to Violet _ at th** first opportunity. • Expected,' sho repeated. * OhJ y«.'• The bearer waits an answer,' addedTom. • Yes, yea, presently,* she murmured.* I had only followed my own imnulso and gone away this morning, here was one trial from which I might have beenspared.’ ‘ I did not think they would have dis- coveied us so speedily,’ said Tom. * Ivery sorry ; it is all mv fault. Tell ms wiiat next I can do, or what is to be done.’• One moment,* she replied- ‘ I will re-, turn in one moment, after I have read this.*She passed out of the drawing-room,and Tom opened the door for her, closed it be­hind her, and returned to his seat to find that Marcus had taken the chair whkh Miss Hilderbrandt had vacated. FanuyOliver, at a very high pitch indeed, was screaming' The Power of Love,’ whan Marcus said :‘ Miss Hilderbrandt ean’i bear Fanny’s singing, I suppose, Tom T Tbai’e <me drawback to Fanny—her high nolee aresimply dreadful.' • I don’t know—I cannot say,’ answered Tom, irrelevantly,• It is no business of mine to interfere, Tom; and of course you know best what is bust; but if there's not something likean nnderstending between you and Mna Hilderbrandt, I am vary much sniitelun. And it is not quite fair to Urania, in mysmall opinion, that's all,' concluded Marons.• Unfortunately, Marcus, there is no un- .teratandiug between me sud Miss Hildsr- brandt,* r plied T< m. savagely- ’ Oulv an internal thick cloud into which she dteap-nears, leaving nothing tangible in her stead.’ • Good gad * you talk like Ixion.’• No; 1 talk like a fool,’ muttered Torn. •That's about the same thing, for— Whal’s the matter now ?*Tom's band had fallen on Mains’s arm, and gripped it bar-1; and Tom’s face had changed color despite the self-command ofwhich he was somewhat vain. Tha yonng- er brother looked round cautiously. Miss Oliver was warbling <>a complacently; Mr^Slitherwiek baa bending oyer her and the music ; Olivers pere and mere were still , ehatting uocouceraedly, and Oliver pees nr-bahly xha expense of tbs jnreosrrliRg night's festivity.

They failed iu tlieir duty lo their own convictions on this question, and the free traders are coining support on their mistake.” Oub cotenr. kas unfortunately got him­ self into rather nn uhplcasant snarl with the County Council. Some “ highly in­ sulting Liters” from him were read before that honorable body at it’s yo^lor- day’s session, iu r^ferepce to, the County printing, and a resolution was at ouco unanimously passed deciding “ pot to consider nny of bis tenders in future until he made npolagy for said insults.” A little bujobja pie >• sometimes of great benefit to overly - self - important young men.- Mules aro becoming almost aa popular in England as in the Southern States. Savcnty Kentucky animals arrived iu Liv­ erpool tho other day, and other consign­ ments will follow. They are used in tbe Old Country on tramways, it being found that throe can bo maintained at less cost than two horses, and whilst not inferior to horses in strength, they possess greater powers of endurance. The English Gov-, orument have five hundred mules iu trans­ port service in Zululand. Thf. Monreal rubber factory is (riving out largo orders for cotton and woolen fabrics rsed in tbe manufacture of overshoes and other goods. Tbo managers have ascer­ tained that these fabrics, which hitherto have been imported from the United States and England, can bo made equal in quality nnd at lower price by Canadian mills than can bo obtained -from importers. Thia change is due to increased duties levied on foreign cotton and woollen goods, nnd tlio result will be increased employ­ ment for our people. The Montreal Com­ pany annually consumes $290,000 worth of one class of woollen fabric; manufacturers t f knitted goods are also experiencing a trade revival, ft shipment of the value of §60,000 having recently taken place from Paris to different points of the Dominion. Ol d dry bones of dead nn-1 gone sub* iects aro apt to crop up and make tjtgm- selvet apparent nt times nnd in places iu which they are least expected, aud so it was at tbo annual meeting of tbo Board of Trade, held in tho Town Hall on Monday «veniug last. While tho matter of tbe Kt. Mary’s Branch Railway was under discussion, tho question naturally nroso as to the probabilities of obtaining a Govern- want grant iu aid of tho enterprise. Mr. Jas. Noxon gaye some very good and tan­ gible reasons why ho did not think a grant <onld bo obtained, but Mr. Alam Oliver, like nu old war horse at tho smell of powder, is all life nnd notion, nt onco, and r*adx for tbo Iray, so he, suuffiog what ha •supposed to ho a larking spirit of antag­ onism iu his old focmau, of that momor- uble fight, iu the South Riding^of Oxford, iu 1867, rose in his might, and with a power of eloquence which demolished—in hix qwu estimation we suppose—Mr. Noxon's arguments, at tho samo timo perpetrated nn act of suicide which— rdthoagh polities aro tabood in Board of Trade-meetings—yo cannot refrain from pnblishiog for tho especial benefit of our Reform friends and reader*. [Conserva­ tives will please not read the balance of ihii. paragraph.] Onr Hoi. ex-M. P. P. said** there Was no reason to suppose tho grant conld not be obtained. Ha had con­ versed with Hon. Mr. Crooks on the matter., wlw had expressed himself as beiog convinoed Mi"t a grant could be obtained. Of coarse tha 11,503,0^0 npuropriated by Saudiiehl Maedon- idd's Government, on which that Gopornmtnt was defeated, bad been < xpctuled; a subsequent appropriation Lad alto gone, and the late grants to rail­ ways had been individual and separate iippropriations. It was a very easy noatler Io get measures of this kind through the House. They were measures of Cnanco, a id had to b Aroujhl down by the Govern­ ment of the day, aud with a majority nt their back they could always carry them through, if they could not carry them tbfey would bo obliged to resign.

Ou motion ol Mr. Christopher, seconded by Mr. Hegler, the mover was granted leave t.> introduce a memorial to the Privy Council in accordance with the resolution just past. Mr. Christopher then read the memorial, which, on motion, was adopted, nnd tbo Mayor tu.d Clerk authorized to sign- the same and attach the corporate seal there­ to. Moved by Mr. Christopher, seconded by Mr. Thompson, aud Jiesolved, — That this Council fully realize tho liberal action of tbo Ontario Government iu their railway subsidypolicy, and tbo great benefits which tho country has derived by tho extended rail- wax* tacilitfes developed thereby ; at thesame time this Conucil are of opinion that tbe system of pooling receipts, so largely adopted at the present by so many of therailways which have been so generously subsidized by tho Government and Muni­ cipalities, goes far to destroy tbe beuefils.of competition which has boon tho mainmotive in inducing so large a municipal aid to have been given, aro of tho opinion that there should bo somo legal cnaclmuntto prevent such pooling, and we would res­ pectfully draw tbo attention of our mem­ ber, the Hon. Adatu Crooks, to this featureiu railway management, with thu hope that ho may be able, through legislation, to prevent such amalgamitious ns bavo a tendanev to destroy those benefits in tbeway of competition that these large bonuses and grants from tho Government have been given for, and that a copy of Ibisresolution bo forwarded to tbo Hon. Adam Crooks, Member for South Oxford. Somo of tho mombers of tho Council thought tbo motion too prematura, as the House docs not meet yet for thiee months ; it wns therefore moved by Mr- Buchanan in amendment, seconded by Mr. Daly, and resolved that the motion jnst read bo laid ou the table f ir further consideration. The yeas and Days being called for cn the amendment resulted us follows: — Yeas—Buchanan, Daly, Stewart, Ballan­ tine, Crisp aud Flewelling—6 ; nays— Gayfer, Thompson, Hegler and Christopher lur. It is their duty to report on IL la it because the nuisance in a tnagnittMe theyshould ask for a petition ? Let u make them do their duty, and then, if they cau- not remove it, lot them report to this Coun­cil. It would be derogatory and premature for ue to join ourselves to them. Tbo Mayor thought Mr. Daly's remarks were not applicable to tbe question at issue.It was to a certain extent out of the general Hue of duty of the Board of Health. Tbia property is a vested right which has existedfor 40 or 60 years, aud could not be ap­ proached without proper consideration. Itwas tho duty of the Council to act properly in the matter and endeavor to take steps to abate tbo evil.Mr. Buchanan—It was the duly iff theBoard of Health to report tbe case to this Council, and tbo petition should be banded to them.Mr. Stewart wanted to know wlint tho Board of Health considered a nuisance.They passed by some places which appear­ ed to bo of tho viry worst kind, while other* were notified for a trifling inatter-Ho agreed tbiit tbo pond was in a very unhealthy condition, axd would do all in bis power to rid the town of tbo nuisance.Mr. Hegler—Iu order to nb’nto tbo evil, negotiations will have to bo gone into with tho proprietor. Otherwiso you will haveto attack him through tho’ law conrts, which would mako it a costly proebduro. Mr. ThotnpHon thought tbe Councilshould not bo mixed up in the affair. Moved i.i amendment by Mr.Tbampson, seconded by Mr. Gayfer, nndlietolvcd,—That the petition of tho rate­ payers, respecting tho pond between King r.nd Canterbury streets, bo referred to theBoard of Health for their report at next meeting of tho Council.

Josh Billings has said that next to com­ pound interest, the Canada thistle is the worst enemy our farmers have to encoun­ ter, andjvo are of opinion “Josh’' was right, at least in so fur as a post of this kind is considered. ‘•There is a timo for every­ thing,” and now our fellow townsman, Mr. Jolyi O'Callaghan, comes to tho (rout and gives his experience of seventeen years ns Io tbo proper time to cut Canada thistles. He says that if they are cut on the 22nd, *20rd aud 24th of Juno.or op the 29th, 8D|h nnd 814 July, it will kill them without fail. He has tried it on different years and has found it sure and unfailing, jmd tint if cut any other timo they nra sore to como up again ns bad as ever. This recipe bn girts free to all. Of course in cutting thick patches some will bo missed, but nil that aro cut on those days nill die. It has al­ ways been an accepted fact that there is o. proper time nt which to cut this plant, so that it will not grow again, nnd wo hope we may hear of many who may try this experiment with success.

At this stage of the meeting the subject of the proposed railway to St. Mary's was introduced by Mr. A. Oliver. Ho should not be in favor of putting any additional (ax upon tho town in tho matter of grant­ ing bonuses, but bo was in favor of render­ ing every assistance possible to the enter­ prise by way of private subscription to stock. He was willing to take shares to tho extent of 31,001), and bo was of opin­ion nbont 910,030 could be raised in that way in tbo town. H i did not think the railway would be of any great ui^pntageto Ingersoll, but Ingersoll, would snffer if tho lino went from St. Mary's to Wood- stock through E in bro.Mr. E. McCartv, of Thameeford, was next heard, on tho subject. St. Mary's had granted a bonus of $00,000 on tho pro­vision that tha other municipalities would make up an additional $60,000. He thought $40,000 could be got from EastNitsouri, $10,000 from North Oxford, and that would leave $80,000 to come from the town of Ingersoll, and hq find been inform­ ed that jibe (Company would accept thatamouuyiu iVoC. V. it. bonds held by thotown./ MrfjBrady wns of opinion (he rondwould do very little good to Ingersoll if it cams here, but it it went past us to Wood­ stock would do us harm. A gentleman was present from the western part of WealZorra. Ingersoll was bia market, nnd he with his neighbors were opposed to tho Zorra by-law for aid t» the line runningto Woodstock. This gentleman wanted us to assist th»m in defeating that by­ law, and it might be policy for Ingersoll tn lend its Mtistauce in this direction.Ho would like io kruiw under whose paternity thia proposed road was pro- tooted. Mr. Laidtaw had repudiated it.Mr. Oliver said it did not matter who was tbe father of it. Everyone who had stock in it would have a voice in its mau-•geuoent. Mr. Noxon would like to nee tho real bwH, but as we were already saddled with ft large railway debt, it was not reaaon-able to enpecl that we should ineur farther liabilities for this juropoeed road. We bad brought the C. V. R. almost to the doorsof the farmers iu North Oxford and East Nissouri at great expense to ns, aud if they wish thia fnrtJror railway connection theyshould be willing to bear a much larger share of the expeuro lb:vn they had vet proposed lo do. If eny assistance was(riven by the town it should be by way of subscriptions for stock by private in­dividual*. Mr. Jas. Brady moved tbe following re­ solution. seconded by Mr. Welsh :JiMolotd,—Tliat wliile thia Board ure net authorized tn pledge tha credit of Lire town to ail the St. Mary'e Branch Hail­way at present, they are aware that cer­ tain of th* eitiasns of thia town are to favor of it, and that Messrs.

You will no doubt be surprised to receive a letter from me from thio eity of the Czars, but suddenly summoned to attend to some im- ]>ortaut buiiueu in Stockholm, Sweden, and unable to resist my desire to re-visit St Fctersbnrg, during these troublesome times, where my stay however will be very short, I arrived hero only two days ago. Thirteen years have clapned since 1 last left the har­ bor of St. Petersburg for America, and this time has certainly worked wonder*. Then everything seemed quiet and peaceful, now bombs, petards and rrsoluutiotisry proc)a- , maUons are the order of tbe day. A reign of terror exists. General Ghourko, an old andtrusted friend of the Czar, ha* met with aserious obstacle in the way of his celebratedrepressive measures. It will be remembered ‘ that not tho least remarkable of these wasthe order to place a watch tutu before everydoor in tho capital. The Nihilists have now posted a proclamation under tho very nose ofthe {iolice, threatening all who take service asspecial watchmen with deatli, the consequence of which is that no men can be found willingto accept tho dangerous posts, aud it is almostcertain that if the decree is to ba carried outa military sentinel will liave to be placed the door of every honse. The air of St.Petersburg i* full of wild rumors of fresh as-sareinations and revolutionary plots. Great consternation Las been caused by tho arrestof a peasant with a letter in bis pocket con-taininga plan for an attic!: on the Wint.-r Palace and the Fort of St Peter and St. I'anl.The result of this has been tho calling out of the entire garrison under the command of theGrand Duke Nicholas, while tlic revolution­ists aro dvnbtlcw enjoying their grim hoax. It is stated that the heir-apparent has receiv­ed several anonymous letters odviiing him toleave the country if bo widics to maintain a neutral position in the ’* coming resolution.”The trial of the three Russian students on ncharge of disturbing public order has resulted in two of them being sentenced to nirrn andone to four months' imprisonment. GeneralGonrkn's have evidently done more harm than good, and such is tho dissatisfaction at thuUniversities, that tho atudents are leavingtheir classes ch inajue, and it is probablethat these institutions will have to b«ahut up. The gloomy fortress of Peter ami Paul pro­mises in these troublous times toplay a prom­inent part in connection with tho revolution- ary movement in Russia. Founded by Peterthe Great, it early began nn evil career as tbeState prison of the unfortunate Cesarevitch Alexis, whom, rightly or wrongly, posteritybclivcs to have b.-en put t J dsath by thebands of his despotic tarent Afterwards, itbecame the regular place of detention forprisoners of State, and perhaps, for 150 yearsthe cells have never been without their com­ plement of inmates.

Under the sovereignty of Saul, the number slacken­ed, but Alexander soon replenished theorison, and at the mumeui of Lis death at 'l.’ganrog the vaults were crammed with con-spii.'tor*. Tho first efforts of Dckabristsafter their revolt against Nicholas were direct­ ed towards literatim; their friends in the for­tress, a*.u, failing iu the attempt, ^hundreds were driven by the Cossacks inside the gloomywnlis.

Addresses to the children wars delivered by Bov, Dr. Burns,of Halifax, Rev. Mr. McEwan, of Ingersoll, and Rev. Mr. Thompson, of Ayr, Captain Logan, of the salmoner Katie E. Btnart, at Halifax, reports that when offWhitebead. Guvsboro’ County, ho saw a whnle about 60 feet long coming twards the vresel. He threw a billet of weed atit which seemed to enrage it, and it dived nnder tbe schooner and came up alongside blowing water on to the deck. It wmstruck by several missiles but did net seem afraid. Then -bilge waler was pumped overboard. This drove the whale off ter afew minutes but it came back and was evidently about to strike tbe vessel when it was struck close to the blow-hole by a‘ large lump of coal. This seemed to take I lhe courage out of it and it swam off in tbeI direction in which it came. We are gratified in being able io ■nDouneu to our reudeiu anti nuiaeroun other jmtrona that our business has largely increased during the past nine or ; twelve months, uud wo Lave now arrived 1 at that ]x>int nt which it become* neces­ sary that we should seek and obtain ! more commodious picmisca and increas- 1 ed facilities in order to meet the growing , demands of our customers. It is not in a spirit of boastfulness but with feelings of sincere gratification and pleasure to ourselves that we state that our Looks show nn increase of business of all kinds of from 50 to 75 percent, for each month of the present year as compared with Uie corresponding months of 1878. This increase has taxed our capacity and accommodation toi*s utmost extent, and with a good prospect of further spreading our business and sphere of usefulness, wo have secured the lease of new and Larger Premises. Our new office will bo situated on the east aide of Thames Street, south of King Street, in Mr. C. P. Hull’s Block, between the j>ost office aud tho law chambers and offices of Messrs. Brown i Wells. These premises will give us an area of ‘ more than double what we now possess in our present office and in addition to giving us this increased accommodation, our entire office will be situated on the ground floor, which, wo have no doubt, while being of greater cohvcnienco to our patrons will also add to our own comfort and materially enhance our facilities. This office, when tho contemplated alterations uro com­ pleted, will be one of tbe most commod­ ious, best lighted and convenient in this section of the province. Wc shall move into- our new premises on or before the first of J uly. We have always kept pace with the times in onr styles of tyjie, presses and other facilities for turning i out first-class work, and wo feel confi- i dent that it is owing to tho very excel­ lent quality and style of the printing - executed in our office that wc have thus far succeeded so well, In order to still 1 further increase our facilities and to take u step iu advance, wc have ordered a Large New Power Press. This press is one of the latest improved printing machiues made, and is now be- : ing manufactured especially for us by the ’ celebrated Campbell Printing Press Manufacturing Company of New York City. It is a press that Ims stood the severest tests and competition against = other builders and has always come out victorious for the class of work turned out, being both rapid and perfect in exe­ cution. With such a machine in our possession we shall be enabled to defy couq>et;tion from whatever source it may come—either city, town or country. Our advice from the manufacturers iufutin us that they will ship the press about the 1st of July so that wc shall be able to set it up immediately on getting into our new office. Enlargement of the Paper. With these facilities iu our possession we intend tp enlarge the Oxfoud TniBLta’E before the end of the current year, duo announcement of which will be made when our arrangements for so doing are fully completed. We feci con­ fident that we shall be backcd^up in these impi’ovcuieuts by our large circle o', customers and well-wishers, and wo promise them in return a paper second to uonc at present iu this section of Ontario. An Appeal. At the present time wo have a large amount of accounts standing on our books for work done, and we make a strong appeal to those indebted to us to s’ttle up at once, either personally or by remittance, iu order that wo may be ■ placed in a better ]>osition to carry out r the above contemplated improvements ’ without financial cmbarnusmenL Ourr . outlay, including a new dress for tho 1 paper, will be in the neighborhood of $2,000. The accounts- due us are small in amouht from each individual, but in the aggregate tLcy swell np to a large sum, and we trust that they will bb liquidated at once. Oar Gratitude. We cannot lei this opportunity pate without returning thanks for tbe very extensive patronage beatoWed upon us since entering into business in Ingersoll six years ago, and we again promise our readers that we shall not allow any portunity to pass, which it may tr tn cn»r power to take ad vantage of, and "which may work for their interest ’ TlA gersoll lebheae market Uns Ibis < KOI itself itflo I |&tl|er '■ uufdrtugate < muddle und as a eoustqiience we have . bplbiug to rcpcrt .asto Ihp stale of the martet. 1 * The buyers who attorn] this market ap- ( pear to ^rdtesatisfigtFwitb tho tpannsr iu ( which it has boon conducted, allhough, for IhgNte ckLjXMS. willi all the explanations we 1 have listened to, we cannot see that they 1 h^ve any tangible reason for complaint, nfiless it is tlfatflie factotyttfen have too good nn opportunity afforded thorn for gaining iofonnatlon.

Better Farming Needed. The competition among fanners is much cloaer and sharper than formerly. The time has gone by in most sections of the country when poor farming could insure even the Dkodfrate aacccu of making a living. Dur­ ing the last four or five years thousands of farmers have steadily lost money, and unless they reverse the process, it is only a question of t'.me when they mast go under. The loss -s of fartners have generally been attri­ bute.! to ths times, and, with the return of proiperity and general revival of business, it has been suppeued that the farmers’ profits would re thru and everybody could make money again. Undoubtedly tho stress of tho times has affected farmers as well as every­ body else ; bnt the time will never come when any but the best farming will bo successful. The nominal success which has always here­ tofore attended even tho poorest farming has been duo to the moderate ambition of most farmea wxl the little with which they have been uoBlentad. So long as m<m are satisfied with hard work and getting little or nothing for their invested capital, a^d Man outcome making * bare living, it ought not to be diffi­ cult to satisfy them. Yet this is what th KBauds of farmers have done of late years. oarmof high prices, most farmers made susne wmey. .Old debts were paid, and in some cases better modes of fanning were adopted. But the yean which have followed lava pinched us alt The more expensive habits ot living, adopted ten or twelve years ago, are not readily dropped. Prices of farm produce have fallen as low a* before the war, and from almost every quarter wo are advised that expenses of every kind must be ent down in a earresponding ratio, or everybody will go to risi'n. Undoabtly this ia aetuutie advice for a large proportion of fanners. Wherever the soil has been allowed to rtr» down ; wber' oi cultivation ; wherever, front any eamse the MBilistr cutting down ot living expense is a nsfimtty, dire though it may seem. But it is foolish for farmers to look at this subject from tha standpoint of miserly parsimony. So Asm of men work harder and none aie better mitztled to the oouforts and luxnriei which hwd Work should obtain. While poos farming may not, and probably will not, i—.Ita ovia a bare living, a better management Prudent saving ia always advisable, but • ttuuiafor retrenchment, tach as ia are pre­ • tviag, uuder th» iofluruoe of thia mania, is ■tow Bouaenae.

We have no ea wish foe a retain door, and went gamboling and bleatingover the little garden ip front. Nothing baa 0ver impressed me so entirely with a Benso of tho marvellous. One * MfUbst tempted Id tn.lt, in the presence ot 4ueb adiscovery, whether death iteeif may not ultimately be ba£Qed by scientific iuvesti*gallon. You will see at once tho benefits claimed by tho discoveries of this process. Cargoes of live sheep can thus be sent to England by largo steamers, and although a freezing atmosphere will still be au es­ sential, a temporary breakdown necessita­ ting a stoppage of eight or teu days in the production of sold would be of no conse­ quence. When the sheep are landed inEngiaud, any that fail Io entirely rally will be perfectly good meat, whereas the others can be turned on to pastures or diiveu to market. Of course, the same re­ sults can be achieved with bullocks, but their greater weight makes them moredifficult .to handle with safety, and tha car- c ise is rendered brittle by freezing, making them the more liable to injury. It soundedodd to hoar Mr. Grant and Siguor Rotura laying stress npomtiie danger of breakage on the voj age. Signor Rotura proceeds toSouth America at once for a large supply of the two netessnries for the safe conduct of his process, and both these substances'nt pnseut remain a secret." If, ns is quite ceituiu, the CHEDULITY OF THE READEB is taxed too severely by this wonderful man and bis wonderful discovery, one can only suggest that it is but fair to await his return (if be over does return) from SouthAmerica, and the fnrtlur application oi his discovery to the cattle transportation busi­ ness, befi re setting him down as anotherBaron Munchauaeu or Mendez Pinto. As for his partner and fellow scientist, Grant, in tho facility with which he brings his subjects to life, be must be a veritable Frankenstein, only, unlike the hero of Mrs. Shelly’s romance, with a commendable re­gard for Hie welfare of liis fellow-man be proposes to employ his secret less for the promotion of a ghastly philosophical ab­straction than in advancing economic and commercial undertakings, in the immediate benefits of which ail mankind that are in­terested in a plentiful supply of cheap food arc to have the bauefit. SANFORD’S RADICAL CURE We trust anoh of our commercial readers aa have any interest .in the business of= meat exportation, and such of oar readers as have any ^concern in applied aoiesce, will recognise thie propriety of holdingtheir breath for awhile, while we narrate the details of a new and startling discovery which promises ere 1 >ng to revolutionizenot only the entire live stock trade, bnt to make a very decided innovation in physio­ logical methods. “ Wonders," wo know,“ will never ce*M and if one were not authoritatively assured that •' the age of miracles ia past," the discovery in questionmight well be eel down, if not as the eighth wonder of the world, certainly aa showing that there must be some mistake by theauthorities as to the miracles. Without further premise, however, let ns proceed to show what the new discovery is, the mor- vellous tilings it bss already accomplished, and what it proposes to do for the world's trade aud commerce iu the future. We condense the statement as we find it in the * no less respectable authority than the \ London Times, of May 2Gtb, under thehead of " A WONDERFUL DISCOVERY," credited to a journal called the Brisbane (Australia) Courier: At a secluded point in Sydney Harbor, opposite what are known m the heads, occupying some twoacres of enclosed ground, for many months past two well known scientists, Mr. James Grant (said to be a pupil of the late Mr.Nicolle, so long associated with Mr. Thomas Mort in hie freezing process) and a Siguor Jlotura (whose researches intothe botany and natural history of South America, we are informed, has rendered his name eminent), have been engaged iua series of experiments that have been con- dneted with the most perfect secrecy, the reaulj of which as now promulgated, weare gravely assured, establishes the start­ ling fact that animal life can be reduced to a state of absolute suspension for an. in­definite period of time-days, months. | or yeurs even—and then restored again nt , the human will. Thisia the way it came| about; Mr. James Grant has long hud n pre-eminence of knowledge in the scienceI of generating cold, and bis freezing cbam- ' bt-r at Woodhare, has long Leon known as t the seat of' IMPORTANT . EXFEBIMEXTS. In December last, Signor Rotnrn calledupon Mr. Grant to invoke liis assistance in a scheme for the transmission of live stuck to Europe. The Signor Rotura averred that h» bad discovered a South American vegetable poison that had the power of per- . foctiy suspending atimation, nnd Hint tho1 tranco thus produced continued till the an- plication ot, another vegetable essence : caused the blood to renime its circulation.[ So perfect was this suspension of life that 1 i Signor Rotura had found iu a warm climate dec.imposition sot iu nt the ex­ tremities after a week of this living death,aud he imagined if the body iu this inert state was reduced to a temperature suffi­ ciently low to airest decomposition, the trance might be kept up for months, possi­bly for years. Before be left Mr. Grunt, be bad turned that gentleman’s doubts . into curiosity by experimenting on his Jog.i He injected two drops of tho liquid, mixed ! with a httle glycerine, into a -mall pitnc- ‘ «.|U Uc tJie u ,ri{ f.,r two-ibirds la ’ four £l e “ d°S “ Car’ and ‘U ‘brU° °T ■ b^-" n8C(:r‘’'',’J'1 »L»V ?

Mr. Grant continually, during the1 day and night, visited the cupboard, and > so perfectly was life suspended in his : favorite that ho confesses be felt all the f sharpest reproaches of remorse at havirg . sacrificed a faithful friend to a doubtful (aud dangerous experiment. The tempera-tnre of tbo body, too, in the first four hours gradually lowered to 25 degrees Fahrenheit below ordinary blood tempera- i lure, which incresR^d bia fears as to the re- , suit, aud by morning tbe body was AS COLD AS IN ACTUAL DEATH. I At 10 o'clock next morning, according to , promise, Signor Rotura presented himself, , and, laughing at Mr. Grant's fears,request­ ed a tub of warm water to bo brought. Hetested this with the thermometer at 32 de- ' grees Fahrenheit, and in thia laid tho dog’e head Under. To Mr. Grant's objections,Signor Rotura assured him that, as anima- , tion must remain entirely suspended till tho administration of tho antidote, powater could bo drawn into tho Jung«, and that the immersion of the body was simplyto briugil again to a blood "heat. After about ten minutes of thia bath, tbe body was taken out and another liquid injected in a puncture made io the neck. Mr.Grant soys the revival of tbe dog was tbe most startling thing he ever witnessed. Tbe animal first showed the return of lifein the ave, and after five and a half minutes ha drew a long breath, and the rigidity left bi* limbs. In a few minutesmore he commenced gently wagging his tail, and then slowly got up, stretched him- himself aud trotted off AS TnOQftK NOTHING HAD HAPPF.N1D. From that moment Mr. Grant became awara of the extraordinary iaattes openedby bis visitor’s discovery, aud promised him all tha assistance in his power. It would be too long a story for onr columns to describe, even in a condensed form, the many other wonderful experiments which followed with reference to sheep, lambs,Halves ami other cattle. Suffice it to any that, in order to place their wonderful dis­ coveries on a busineas basis, Messrs. Grantaud Rotura dewrmtned upon the erection of a mammoth freezing chamber at Middle Harbor; an enterprising capitalist, Mr.Christopher Newton, finding tbe ueee*- sary funds. A eorrespon leut of tl» journal which haa been tho first to give the discov­ery to the world paid a visit to this curiou* establishment, and what bo saw thero we prefer to give, as near as possible, in hi»,own words.

Gtitltemrn,—About two and a half yearsago I commenced treating yny little grand­ daughter, aged eight years, for deafness caus­ed by Catarrh, with your Radical Cuhk. Shewas relieved by a half bottle taken in inhala­ tions. 8ho continued using it uqtil tho bottlewa» finished, and w« find that she ilpermentlyeared, m she lias no return of tho Deafness. She lias been deaf from her third or fourthyear every ti uo she hod scold, and we fearedthat it was incurable. I think it was a woo- derful cure, and write this that others ao afflicted may be helped in the same wav.Mbs. A. B. Vaxt.Milfoku. Mass., December, 1877. SANDFORD’S RADICAL CURE Is of marvellous efficacy for relieving violentattacks of Sneezing, to which many are sub­ ject, for cleansing the Head and Nasal Pas.sages when clogged with offensive matter, fordeodoriziua and purifying the Breath, forrendering the Head clear, the Brain active, tho Breathing easy, and every Senae in amost grateful and soothed condition. Dr. Chas. Main, a Bostou physician, saya :As a remedy for the treatment of everyform of Catarrh, I consider it superior to any preparation laid down in any text-bookwith which lam familiar.” SANDFORD'S RADICAL CURE Is a Local and Constitutional Remedy. It iaiiiJian-tl, thus acting directly upon tho nasal cavitie*. It is taken internally, thus neutral­izing and puHfytbc aculifird blood. A newand wondeful remedy, destroying the grrm of the disease.

( During his first visit to Paris. M. Lasallc, ' a distingnislied German, presented himself at the bouse of a well-known Indy, to | , whom be hud sent letters of introduction 1 i in advance. When the servant opened ! the door and received his card, she cundue-ted him to tho boudoir nnd told him to Le seated, saying : •• Mudamo will come im­ mediately.’’ Presently the hdy entered. She wm indisluibtllo and her feet were Imre, covered only with loose slippers. She bowed to him carelessly and said :“ Ab, there yon are ; good ni«rning.” She threw herarif on a sofa, |. tfaU»alip. per, and reached out to Liualle her verypretty foot. Lasallo was naturally completely as­ tounded, but ho remembered that at hishome in Germany it was the cuxtom sometimes to kiss a lady’s hand, and be sup|K>aed it was the Paris mode to kiss her.foot. Therefore bo did not hesitate to im­ print a ki-s upon the fascinating foot so near him, bnt he could not avoid saving :"Thank you, tnadame, tor this new'mode of. making a Indy’s acquaintance. H is much better and certaiuiy mure generous thau kissing the Laud." Tho lady jumped up, highly indignant. “Who are you, air, and what do youmean ?’ He gave his name. •• You are not, then, n corn-doctor" I tint charmed to say, madame, that I am not.” •• Bnt you sent,- mo the corn-doctor's 'card ?’’ ’ ' It was true. Lasallo in going out that ' morning had picked tip the card of a corn­doctor from bis bureau nud put it in his ’ pocket. This, without gtaneiug at, lie had 1 given to the servant, who had taken it to her mistress. There w.iw nothing to do but tolaugh over the joke. 2 iaeli Pine Plank. 3 x 4 inch Pine Scantling, 3x1 inch Cellar Scantling, 3 anil 4 inch Oak Plank, Nails, Screened Gravel. It A.
