Division Court The shortest Division Court on record was held in the town hall on Wednesday oi la.sk week before Judge Widdifield. The court only lasted half an hour and only one case was tried, while two other unimportant cases went by default. The one case, however, was of somewhat more than ordmary interest, inasmuch as it made plain certain law regarding lieu notes which is not well understood. This aae was : The Sovereign Bank v. W. H. Allen and W. Colliugburn, agent of Dundaik. Allen bad signed two lien notes with the usual conditions for a Speight wagon. After using the wagon two years CoUing- burn seized the wagon and Allen says promised to return his notes. This was not done. The notes fell into the hands of the Sovereign bank and were sued by that concern. The defendant, Allen, claimed that he was not liable and this view the judge upheld, but gave judge- ment as acainst the agent, Collingburn. The judge pointed out that what is called a lien note is not a note, but merely an agreement or contract, and that any per- son purchasing such must accept it with all its conditions, A note roust contain no conditions, merely a promise to pay. . . iff,, â- Irwin Storfey of Sli'ncoe county was sentenced to nine months i» the Central priaon for bigamy. .

On their return, destitute, they were kept several weeks by a man in humble circumntAnccs until the arrival of long-delayed funds, and have just sailed for Canada. Word was received this week from Chicago that Douglass Youmans was killed in that city in a railway accident. Mr. Youmaus was well known to niaiij of our readers.
