The better animals were wanted for pleasure purposes. In the large cities the coach horse was in evidence on was special the drives, and the man who desired to make a display of his prosperity had his stable and his outfit of sad- dle and driving horses. Next in importance, and giving high values to the sales, was the army. Only the best blood or strain was desired by those who bought for the artillery and mounted forces. There was a time when in some of the centres of Canada and the United States men were constantly employed the best in selecting and shipping across ocean the horses that gave the promise of miXtary service. # Last in the choice of animals--and taking all that had working capacity, of flaws and defects--were They wore out The ser- the regardless the street railways. the equines by the, thousand. was simply killing, and on apace vice slaughter went to year.

Case Against Woman For Keeping a House of I-Fame--Trying si to Ti a $500 Horse Whose eB -- 6.--~A number of interesting and ivy onal eases Were up before Pohee Magistrate Carroll, on Thursddy afternoon. On complaint of Irz Patterson, "Kit" Tryon, "Tip" Leakey (amas P oy and Ernest Smith, were charged with holding up plaintif and hr heving him of a gold watch, a sim_of money. rTryon and ith ° "A arfested, but Pecor could mot be found, being out of town. The magistrate, therefore, en- larged the case until such time as tlre other party to the theft could be ar- rested. Constable Thomson located his man, on Thursday evening, a few miles east of the town, in Leeds township, went after him and landed him in the lock-up. The case will, in all proba- bili be threshed out this (Friday) afternoon, The second case called was that of Catherine Bezie, wife of Michael .J. Bezie, residing in the West ward, charged wit! harboring disorderly characters and keeping a house of ill- fame. Her husband, in answer to her name, presented a medical certific ate, signed by J. P. Sinclair, M.D., that defendant was ill and unable to at- tend court before the beginning of next week. On guarantee of her husband that she would appear, the case was postpaned until Monday next. The third case was that of Henry Mallory, a young resident of the town, charged by Mrs. Clara Stacey with the theft of a fur searf and two quilts from her residence, North street, Tuesday evening last. In the evidence given it was shown that John Mal lory, his son Menry and his younger children, boarded with Mrs. Stacey that the father, John Mallory, had taken plaintifi out on the river in a boat and while they were absent the son, Henry, had removed trunks and belongings of his father and family from her premises, and among them the articles previously mentioned be- longing to her, The case being a rather complicated one, the magistrate adjourned it to give both parties op- portunity te . secure further evidence and provide eownsel, neither being re presented. The hearing will probably be given on Saturday. Charles La France was charged hy Frederick Brennan with the theft of a sum of money from plaintiff. A war- rant was issued for La France's ar- rest, but so far he has not been locat- ed by the police. Summonses have been issued against Levi Williams and George Robbins, the latter on the proscribed list, charged with drunkenness and disorderly duct. The case will be heard to-day. A summons was also issued against Ford Ormiston, son of the late John Ormiston, who was for many ) customs oflicer here, the charge being vagrancy. The case will be given hearing on Menday.

Carnegie as inspector of cement walks, he having been ap- pointed by the roads and bridges com- mittee, of which Deputy Reeve John B. McMurchy is chairman, whereas the motion of Councillors Sheppard and Webster was "that. the council receive {applications through the roads and bridges committee for the position of inspector of cement walks." This had not been done, no report having been made by' the committee to the coun- cil. Discussion over this and othe important matters almost caused the burning of midnight oil.

It is the second edition of the work, published | in 1805, the first edition having been sent broadeast in 1789, In this work there are some real gems of information, of which the fol- lowing are a few, concerning Upper Canada : The militia in the several: districts meet annually.

This country, extensive for the greater part is destitute of a regular gospel ministry. Of course many are deplorably ignorant of all religion. re are at very few places, at Ne- wark, Kingston, and at a German settlement, regular clergymen, but Methodism is the prevailing religion in Upper Canada. Their teachers are il- literate and rude in +' their manners, and often exceptionable in their lives. The body of the people in this pro- vince are immigrants from New Eng- land and New Jersey. Very .few are Catholics. Their towns, many of them, bear the names of those left by the immigrants in New England. Principal towns :--Newark is situat- ed™if latitude 43 north on the bank of Niagara river, as it Lake Ontario. The town extends along the lake for a mile. It contained in. 1798 sixty dwelling houses with a jail and court house under the same roof. There is also a printing office and two churches--one for Presbyterians and one for Epis- copalians. Queenston stands on the Niagara river, seven miles above Newark. This is called the lower landing. Here ves- sels discharge their cargoes and take in the furs collected from threes hun- dred to fifteen hundred miles back. It is a plage of* 'great: trade. Several vessels are seen unloading at the same time. Sixty waggon loads in a day are sometimes carried to the upper landing on C hippewa creek, three miles above the falls. ' From Chippewa the merchandise is transported in batte- aux to Fort Erie, eighteen miles, where it is shipped to Detroit and Michillimakkinack. York, formerly Toronto, is situated on an excellent harbor of Ontario, op- posite Niagara, forty miles distant by water, and one hundred by land. This town was laid out in 1791, and now contains about three hundred families. The legislature met here for the first time in June, 1797. It is the seat of government.
