\ 1 . 4 1 childrenâ€"Henry Goodall, the-ion of s ‘ ‘enlthy shipmvner and merchant; Joseph Guild, the son of a small general dealer in the town; and Alison Hope, the'only daugh- ter of a widow woman who had inherited from her maternal ancestors a small house with garden, and received from Govern- ment 3 small pension of sixpence a day, conferred on her in recognition of her hus- band’s services as a. petty officer on board of n man-ofâ€"wnr. These three children were great friends, chosen companions, and were rarely to be seen separate. ; Henry’s superiority in the socifl scale was forgOtten while he was in the companionship of Joseph and Alison: and the latter, who was of a. visiOnary turn of mind. ambitions, sndromuntic, founded airy kingdoms which the was to rule like a Queen Elizabeth, while Henry‘nnd Joseph were to be respecâ€" tively her Cecil and Raleigh. Thus the children “played together when the boys wéejthirteen :md’the girl eleven; and nine yqfi' dnfter, when Wall and Guild had become young men, and Alison Hope was developing into a comely young woman, their intimacy had not snlfered â€"they Were the same bosom friends as in early years. Fortune had charged at least for one of the threeâ€"Henry Goodall’s father was dead, and had left his son an ample inheri~ Sauce, enabling him to more among the magnntes of the little burgh. For Joseph Guild, who, like Goodall, was an orphan, there was no fortune to inherit; he was simply a clerk in the establishment of his early friend. AlisOn lived as from child- hood with her mother-neither riohernor ‘ ~Wntinnnn~owways Whether in f fortune neifixei' "2'1". Iimilitnde ' o hiring much to call their ownâ€"orfrom an attraction too subtle to be delineated, Guild and Alison drew more closely to- gether; and though Goodall was still the friend of both, they looked upon him uni- tedly as one whose sphere was far removed from their own-one whohsd been, indeed, the companion of early years, but who must almost certainly by force of circum- stances be destined to take the rank more and more, in after years, of a generous ac- quaintanceâ€"one who would for the sake ,of the M'rtrrmodzfions be alwa willingrigefidei' 'fheiu‘a' kindness.

IT has been rumoured for a fort- night past that the suspension of the Joseph Hall Manufacturing Company was about to take place, and now. we 3 hau- that therevent has happened. The management ha‘e'beenialtogether too speculative, and the capital dif- fused too widely and locked up. Doubtless the company sufiered ser- iously from the vicious system in vogue of long drawn out credits to farmers for agricultural implements. We would be glad if the fortunes of the enterprise can be resuscitated, and a. new beginning made under a. more prudent policy of management â€"Mmletary Times.

The grounds se- lected are most beautifully situated, and afforded ample accommodation for all to erect tables. A number of games were closely contested, and prizes to the value of 8250 were awarded. At the close speeches were delivered by the President, Mr. A. Huge], Mr; Rois, M. P., and others: The utmost good feeling prevailed throughout, andlthe proceedings ter- minated in the .most pleasant and satisfactory manner. The Bowman- ville end Port Hope bands provided excellent music during the day. AMOISG the wonderful things in Londonl don’t know that anything impressed me more than the under- ground railway system. There are splendid stations above ground for entrance and for sale of tickets, cor- responding with spacious and well- ventilatcd stations below. You give up your ticket on going down, and surrender it on going up after reach- ing your destination. The trains rush in and out of ' the long tunnels at a high rate cf speed ; by means of the powerful brakes they can be stopped almost instantly. The comfortable cars are lit with gas. The rates are cheap, about a. penny a, mile. Time uucw , uuuuu .- rv--___, ,, and istance in London are annihil- ated. Trains run every few minutes. Of course a double track is used. As the trains dash in and come to a stand-still, the station guards open the doors, which are at the side; some get out; othersget in; the train moves on, the doors being nimbly shut by the guards one by one as the cars glide away. American and Canadian railway men sometimes imagine that they dothingslively;theunderground railway of London would open their eyes. I remember asking an Amer- ican how long he thought the stop ? was at‘each station on \the . under- )ground. This includes getting one ’ set of passengers out, another set in, and starting again. He reflected a moment, and said four minutes. He was considerably astonished when I told him the average time of stopping was only one third of a minute, 07' twentyseconds! Yetthisis th::~iact; I timed it purposely a dozen times. ; The astonishing part of the business 3 is the revelation of what can bedone. without any appearance of hurry, in 20‘ seconds, when it is done by the clockâ€"like system here employed.
