He lived in Canada for about 26 years, mostly at Kinmount, Victoria County, and while there he sat in the County Council for some time as Reeve of Somerville township. He owned a grist- mill and a sawmill at Kinmount, ani was postmaster and justice of the peace there, for many years. In earlier times his name was familiar in Bobcaygeon and the "townships north of that plme. He left Canada for California with his family in 1871, thinking that a milder climate would improve his health, as he sufl'ered from rheu ~fixatism. ” The Fullerton Journal, of Orange .00., Califomia announces the death on Satur- day. April 9th, of Mr. John Hunter, formerly a resident of this county, and the Barrie Eaminer, the editor of which paper isa nephew of the deceased, con- tains the following obituary notice : Deceased was 67 years of age, and leaves a. wife, three sons and three daughters to meum hisloss.

He basod his address on the subject of “English," and during an hour was listened to with the keenest inter- est. His treatment of the subject partook more of the nature of a pleasant conversa- tion than of a lecture. The afternoon session was commenced by the introduction of 1l1e subject of "Phonic Reading” bv Mr. Broderick. After the speaker had briefly laid down the principles underlying the subject, Miss Stephenson. with the aid of a class, illustrated her methods of dealing with the subject in practice. The next feature of the program was a. kinclenzarten songs by a class of girls from the separate school, conducted by Miss Corkery.

Eggs have been quiet, and with a steady consumptive demand prices have under- l4one no alteration. Taking the cost price of eggs in Montreal and Ontario just now, it would seem that the export basis is not anywhere near reached; and if shippers send Loo freely in the present state of the market, they are likely to get nipped, as it will be (liflicult to get Cost price from now until June, when the shipments from Ireland fall off.

Notwithstanding that some late makes of Canadian cheese have been alluwhd to go at easier figures, the really fine parcels ;held by some houses here are still kept l for extreme figures, and 583 to 623 is the firm rate of quotation, while unless the opening of the season has been supplied with too much first-class stuff, a f ‘Hsum- mation hardly to be expected, I shoulal not be surprised to see rates go even higher, though it 'is to the interest of the shippers the margin should not be too great just now. choice in cases.

There is plenty of that ex-Continent every day. Irish eggs are quoted from 55 4d to 65. It should be noted by Canadian exporters that it is with these eggs they will chiefly come into competition, especially at Liver- pool, and the rate given leaves very little margin. “The Boston Saturday Evening Gazette" tells a story sh owing that an ignorance of Latin is sometimes a disadvantage. A young business man of Boston had a sore throat early in the winter, and meeting his cousin 8 physician (and also something of a wag), he asked him what to do for it. “Oh, I’ll write a Brescription for you," was the answer. He wrote it, and the gentlemen glanced at it before taking it into the druggist. It read something like this : “Aqua Puraâ€"ounces ; Chloride Sodiumâ€"ounces. Shake before using; and gargle with it every half hour.” “How much is it?” queried the patient, as the druggist handed him the bottle. "Two dollars,” was the reply. Last week another sore throat asserted itself ; and, remembering the efficacy of his first treat- ment, he took in the bottle to be filled again. Another clerk waited on him, and when he inquired the price he was astonished by the cheerful answer 2‘ “Oh; we don’t cfiarge anything for salt and water !” He had paid two dollars before for a bottle of water with two tablespoon- ful of salt dissolved in it.
