Mr. M ickle, of the wellkuown lumber- ing firm of Mickie & Dyment, was at the Falls on Saturday, looking-at the site of the Moore & Connell mill, which was destroyed by fire early last fall. Mr. Mickie did not know of the fire, and came here for the purpose of getting Moore & Council to cut legs, but on learning the state of affairs he consider- ed the building of a mill here to do the work. The firm have limits from which the logs can be brought to the Falls more profitably than to any other point, and it is thought that the erection of a mill here is probable. Rafiâ€"$6? A mild imitation of the floods that have been doing so much damage in other parts ofthe province was occasioned by the warm weather of Monday, when the Francis street creek overfiove‘, prin- cipally on Bond street. Part of the sidewalk near the S. A. barracks was submerged and shifted out of position, and one or two residents had alittie trouble getting into their houses. The water was also over Francis street opposite May street for a short time, but went down again at night. In old times this creek wasasourco ofa good deal of trouble every spring, but of late years, since the channel was enlarged, it has rarely risen high enough to need any extra attention. Personal. .

M -| ,7. Council met on April 9th pur :unnt to notice from Reeve Tolmie. The roads over the Township at present are very bad and the need of more wiro fences along the roads thereby made plain. Every winter hundreds of days road work are taken up shovclling snow that would be largely saved for permanent summer work. The Council noted the large number of bridges and culverts, some damaged, others destroyed. by the spring freshet and expect a large expen- rlituro along this line during the coming summer.

Post: The Lindsay wharf presented a busy scene on Monday morning, prep- arations being under way for the com- mencement of the season’s operations of drilling and dredging the Scugog river .from here to Sturgeon lake. The ma- chinery was given its finishing touches to-day, and it is expected that the _ dredge “Feneion” will start work to- ‘ morrow morning. The drill scow “ Frank Fairen " was taken out of the water last autumn, to undergo some repairs during the winter. She will be launched in the course of ‘a few days. The “ l-larwood " and the “Bob Hall.” will be utilized to haul. away the scow-loads of material taken from the river. The “Bob Hail " ‘will not be ready for use for a few days, pen ling some necessary repairs to her boiler etc. The late Liberal Govern- ment inaugurated the work last summer . with a view to clearing the channel from here to Sturgeon lake, and it is under- stood that the present- Government will carry out the policy of the late Govern- : ment to the letter. The dredging of the river is a great boon to boat owners. During the past few years even the launches experienced considerable dilli- dulty in navigating the river below the needs dredging badly, and should re- ;ceive the attention 0’ the Government. The Department of Railways and Canals has not taken any action in the matter. Powles’ Corners. q...â€" Correspondence df the Gazette Not in the last thirty years has any statesman declared a policy that requirâ€" ierk the same. moral courage as that ‘which, was made known recently by Mr. Rowell in the Legis'amre when he urged the banishment of the bar. We ' have many tamperence men in public life who would not take such a step, but; . hero is a man who after the closest consideration and a full knowledge ofali the liquor interests and their ramiil- cations, announces such a, policy. Sucha man deserves the most hearty an d enthusiastic endorsntion of every lover and supporter of moral reform. It is rumored that Mr. Sam Moore has purchased the farm which is at present occupied by Mr. \V. Chidioy, and owned by Mr. Loyd Hamilton of Pcterborough. M r. Farmer, get your horses off the road. there is au'aut-omobiie coming. If you meet with a serious accident and get nearly killed you need not seek for redress in the courts, for if you do the auto owners will beat you.

Some three months ago, I received a parcel from England, for which postage. three shillings, or roughly seventy-live cents had been paid. I had the intention of rcmailing it to London. Ontario, and on finding its dimensions too big, I made it up into two parcels,- but to my regret, found it would cost in postage $2.25 for that hundred odd miles.’ It is obvious that the community > should receive some slight recognition from the postal authorities in the way of reduction the Dominion. Should such reduction in postal char- ges for parcels be made a moderate sum per pound, or portion thereof, I am sure it Would be welcomed by the populace, who, in these days, make good use of the p let for the conveyance of parcels, and who would use it much more largely if t to ru‘ 6; were more in harmony with other postal charges.
