D. Barr of the Canadian Post, which event took place at the family residence on Bond street, on Saturday last. For several months pre- vious, it was generally known that Mrs. Barr was suffering from a most distressing malady, from which she could not possibly recover. The announcement of her death, therefore, on Saturday last was not unex- deceased lady during her long and painful 7 ~7-â€"_ LLA ‘An‘, (18063.net; Lou; um...5 .. ...... a illness, is to but poorly express the feel- ings that have moved this community for the past few months. The high esteem in which Mrs Barr was held by every one to whom she was known, renders her early death the subject of the deepest regret throughout a large circle of ac- quaintances. Socially her death is a loss which will be widely felt; to her aflicted husband and family that loss must be extreme. We unite with the community at large in tendering to Mr. Barr and familyl the assurance of sincerest sympathy in their great sorrow. The funeral, which took lace on Monday to the English Churc , and thence to the Riverside 1 cemetery, was largely attended. A______-â€" v. ....- An entertainment given under the auspices of the Catholic Literary Associat- ion will take place in the association hall at the foot of Kent Street on the evening of Friday, May Blst. The pro- gramme of the evening will consist of ‘ readings, dialogues, and debate with vocal ‘ and instrumental solos introduced at suit- ‘ able points. The Association hall has lately beeninthe hands of carpenters, paint- ers and kalsominers and the result is a great improvement both in point of appearance and accomodation and as the proceeds of this the last entertainment of the season is for the laudable cause of improvement no doubt ihe young men will as usual have a “packed house.” Turnip Seed.

A large number of Mr. Dewey’s friends from the difi'erent appointments being present with their quota of the good things provided. It is needless to state that the friends from Raeboro were strong in numbers, and they sustained their high record for liberality. The tea was served in the large basement, and the waiters were taxed to the utmost in serving the large gathering. About 8 o’clock an adjourn- ment took place to the church where the choir treated the audience to some good music. I. W. Reid, Esq., occupied the chair. After devotional exercises, the chairman called on Mr. Smith, a brother- ‘ inâ€"law of Mr. Dewey, who gave a short’ and interesting address on the necessity of “aiming hig ” in whatever calling a person may be engaged. The lecture by Mr. Dewey, “A House Without Walls,” was very practical, and the several kinds of houses he stripped the walls from and of which he exposed the interior had a. wholesome influence on his hearers.

They'were under the management of Messss. Scott and Sullivan, two well known athletes of Woodstock. Quite a number of Toronto people went up to compete in the contests, among them G. T. R. Constable Harrison, ex-Policeman ‘ Mills and Bagpiper McKay. The Rankin concert troupe was also on hand to furn- ish the music. Harrison won four first prizes and two seconds and one third. Everything went on lovely until the hour arrived for the distribution of the prizes. i when it was found that both Scott and Sullivan had disappeared. Harrison and Mills have redoubled their training with a view of having an explanation at as early a date as possible.
