In the Presbyterian church, Fenclon Falls, on Tuesday evening last, a long and interesting lecture on the working of the Upper Canada Tract and Book Society was delivered by Rev. Dr. Mof- fatt, the secretary and one of the most active members of that Society. subject was one in which a great many persons take but little into-rest ; never- theless there was a very fair attendance, and the speaker Was listened to with marked attention. He devoted a good deal of the time at his disposal to the consideration of colportagc work, which he said was surrounded with difficulties, and gave several instances of the good done by the liberal distribution of tracts. The past history of the societyâ€"â€"uow in its fifty-sixth yearâ€"was reviewed, its present condition dwelt upon, and great bopcfulncss expressed as to its future. Rev. Mr. Lccltcnd, pastor of the church, oiliciutcd as chairman, and a few rc- marks appropriate to the occasion were made by Rev. Mr. McAmmond. The music by the choir was highly approved of by Dr. Moffatt, who said he had not heard better in any church he had visited. Teacherc’ ConVention.

Johnston got a team, for which lte gave a horse, a watch and $19 in cash. The bills were laid on the bar, but, while Mr. Campbell was stocping to get a bottle of " pop," Johnston picked them up again and slipped them into his pocket. Mr. Campbell thought he had the money until, later in the day, he found ltc had not got it ; and he had inc idea as to what had become of it until his little boyâ€"upon returning from school and hearing of the lossâ€" isuid he had seen Johnston take. the I money, and supposed it was his. Next day Mr. Campbell drove to Coboeonkl i to interview Johnston ; but the latter, upon seeing him coming, took the horses I them. About a week later Mr. Camp. , bell came to Fenclon Falls, got a war- rant against Johnston from Mr. Dick- son, and put it into the hands of Con- , stable Nevison. At 3 o‘clock last Tues- !day morning Mr. Nevison started for Inboconk, and. upon reaching the out- I skirts of the village, tied his horse in a Isecluded spot, and went and hid near I Johnston’s stable. About 5.30 that it» dividual came from his loose for the, lat-y for ensuing yearnâ€"Carried. purpose of feeding his twin, and the-l constable, quietly The , Mr. G rahant , Mr. Muybcc I 10.30-â€"ll.00 Phonic Method of teaching' following him into directors, and the serutineers having the stable, arrested him there.

P., who. upon hearing the evidence, committed the prisoner for trial, and Mr. Nevison took him the same evening to Lindsay and lodged him in the county jail. It was a hard day’s work for the constable; but he will be well paid. for it, as-â€"-in addition to his feesâ€"be has gained a great deal of credit by the clever capture of John- ston, who is said to have boasted that nobody from Fcnelon Falls could arrest him.

Last Wednesday a small wooden house on Fidlcr’s ltill Was destroyed by lire, which gained such ltcadwav before. it was discovered that there wad no pos- stbtltty of extinguishing it, and, conse- qucntly, an alarm was not given. The house, which was of but small value, was occupied by Mr. Jas. Tripp, whose brother, Mr. lsaac Tripp, built it a fcw years ago and afterwards sold it to Mr. Hugh McDougalI. As the nook-stove had not been used after breakfast tintc, and. the family had left early in tho l'Ot'enoon to be absent all night, it.is generally believed that the fire was the work of an incendiary. There was no insurance on either the house or- its contents, and the. only thing saved was a trunk and its contents. â€"--â€"â€".-oâ€"â€"»o .

The reply was evidently not satisfactory. to “ Querist,” nor is‘ to be won- dered at, attd so he. ass-tunes a few more things a.’ basis for his second article. First of all he awn/ms that I have a “ low opiniott of the intelligence of the people of Fenelon Falls.” Far from. it.

Not. satisfied with lyiny about the livt'ny, he must do so over the saluted dead, and insinuate that the “ last moments. of an aged one were disturbed by the din made by those instruments which were as- sisting the rendering of comic songs.
