Scott, for so many years a resident of this place, but lately of Mindcn, passed away on Saturday morn- ing, the 14th inst., after a severe illness. All that medical aid could do was done, both at home and in Toronto hospital. but after the operation was performed (trying to remove the cancer) he only had time to reach his father's home here, when be rapidly sank. The afflicted wife, family and relatives have the sympathy of all the community. The funeral on Monday afternoon was very largely attended. An impressive service was held at the house by Rev. E. Sovmrd, and afterwards by the For- esters. 1n the procession were the band, of which Mr. Scott was president, the Foresters, Truc Blues and O ldfcllows. Mrs. James Gilmore died at her daughter's residence at Ruttie's. Her body will be brought here for burial. She will be missed in our village, as she has been a resident for a number of years. Johnston’s School. (Correspondence of the Gazelle.) The temperance entertainment given in this place on the 3rd inst. was a suc- cess in many respects, but the future alone can determine the degree of suc-' cess. It is to be hoped that it has made impressions for good on the minds not only of the young, but of all pres- out, that time cannot educe. This being a temperance topic, a couple of our temperance boys consistently introduced, not a cup“? cold water, but a pull of God's own rewing. No toasts of course were given, nor expected, as it would have been quite out of place on this occasion,but-ull could icok forward and upward and thank the hcclfinly brewer for both boys and water.‘ The only toasting was the toasting done at the stove, and might serve to illustrate how a surface heat could be produced with- out liquor. For those who did not avail themselves of the opportunity of hearing and seeing for themselves, either through indifference or-want of ambition, I can only draw on your imagination. After a stroll to No. 11, you'd then,nnd there have been wel- coinedâ€"â€" “ Parents, friends, we bid you welcome, To our school-room dear; And we join our loving voices Now to greet you here ; Welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome, Yes, we welcome all.” Then you’d next have noticed how everything contributed toward the same grand objectâ€"the pail of’ cold water which the Eternal brewed for his chil- dren; the inviting stove. emitting its welcomed rays ; the animated black- board facing you on all sides, and say- ing on the West of a large ornamental banncry“ Abstuin," and with another large slim“ on the cast, “ Abstain," while it mirrored on its south side King Jmnes's Cdunterblast (on tobacco). and on the north side appeared a goblet or two with an ndder's head projecting, over the brim, while a be'l appears in the background, exclaiming, “ Ring out the false, ring in the true l " Combine with these scenes on the board the wall maps, which appeared, even, to rc-ani- mute the whole phantasmagorin. The map of China says, “ I was forced to wear a tail. as n badge of subscrviency. but other civilized nations from whom better is expected wear a voluntary talc -â€"â€"thc tale of drink. You may call minc ' piggv tuilee,’ but I call yours the drunken tale of rye splits, ginger ale, lager hear, etc.” Another entertainment talked ofâ€" surprisc party to-nightâ€"trustccs‘ meet- ing soonâ€"the sick are now convalescent â€"-rcvivnls nt Buddow, much good done and still more hoped to be done. Powles’s Corners. ((brrrspmdmtce of the. Guzeuc.) What great rejoicing and happiness thrre would be in many homes if every saloon and hotel were closed for all time to come. The Dominion Government should give us a prohibitory liquor law and not bother themselves with the Manitoba school question. .‘lr< J "ms Marshall is ~uffering with influumation of the lungs. and one. of her grandchildren is also sick with the croup.

Thomas , {Careers 0? run Maccannns. â€" During the last few days the Knights of the Maccabees have been musing up in earnest, and as a result two special meetings were held on the 10th and 12th inst., and ten new members were enroled and several applications received on file. At the latter review the follow- ing new officers were duly elected and afterwards installed by Sir Knight Geo. Townsend, D. S. C.: â€" Acting Past Commander, 'l‘hos. Johnston; Lieut. Commander, C.

Sunnss DEATHâ€"The Peterborough Times of the 18th inst. says :â€"-“ Yes- terday noon :1 lumberman by the name of Condon, living in Ashburnham and employed in Howry & Son’s camp, knocked off work at noon complainin‘: of a sense ol'sutfocation and pain in the chest. Upon reaching the shanty he grew rapidly worse. Everything was done for him that the information of his cvlaborcrs could suggest, but was of no avail and the end came. While be thoroughly appreciated their kind efforts, his only plea was " Let me die.” He had prophesied this end for some time. The body was brought to Peterborough and turned over to Mr. Bellcghem for care. The deceased was about 32 years of age.” VICTORIA Parnoss â€"The following paragraph was tulcgraphed from Lind say to the Toronto papers on Monday lashâ€"“Tho committee appointed by Victoria County Association of the Patrons of Industry to consider the political situation met in the Corres- pouding Secretary’s office in Lindsay on Saturday last, and decided not to interview the present. party candidates but to place an independent candidate, of their own in thefield. A convention of the Patrons and all independent electors will be held in Lindsay on Sat- urday, March 28, at 1 p. m. for the above purpose. Messrs. J. L. Haycock. M. P. P., and R. C Brandon of Ontario County will be present." A STOVE Roomâ€"Large as are Mr. Joseph Henrd’s present premises they are not sufficient for the requirements of his rapidly increasing business, and he is now making preparations to put up what he calls a “ Stove Room," as his stock of cooking, parlor and box stoves. of which he has a large variety, now has to be kept in a storehouse at the rear of the yard, which is very incon- venient for Mr. Heard and his ous- tomcrs. The new building is to be forty feet deep, twenty feet wide and two stories high, and the front will be flush with the front of the store, with which it will correspond in general appearance. The stone for the founda- tion and some of the joists and rafters are already upon the ground. CORRESPONDENCE. Orange. To the Editor of the Fenclon Fall: Gazette. Sm,â€" Thc orange is n beautiful fruit, but it is being sqncexcd all it can stand. It got asevere squeeze in Simcoe county, till it nearly dried up, but, being allowed to rest a. while, the old orange filled up again, and a. portion of the contents escaped and washed it highly colored Ornnge official out ofofiicc stOttawn. Still there was enough left, and a portion was used in the Trent Valley Canal, and partially soured until frost came and preserved a portion by freezing, and kept it from spoiling the Gull river waters, which it was in 9. fair way of doing. A portion of the juice may keep and be palatable next June if the vessels don’t burst with the frost or something else by that time. As politics at Ottawa seems very embarrassing just now, would it not be well to try factory cheese. it is recom- mended by some as a great help to diges- tion. If it would help to remedy the Manâ€" itobn School Bill it would then be better than orange juice. But should the Patrons of Industry brew or distil some dccoction that would be palatable and good to take, and lay the dust about June next, it might become popular and supersede the others, providing it was not excisnblc. It is well known that the clergy live by our sins, the medical men by our diseases, and the low gentry by our misfortunes. Could not some of those in the professions mentioned provide us with a remedy, or shall we have to wait until Mr. McLaughlin takes his seat at Ottawa next Parliament? Expecting fair play to all, I remain NORTH VICTORIA ELECTOR. RIJLRRIED. Coornaustnsscr. â€"At the bride's resi- I deuce, by the Rev. Richard Mallctt, B.
