About two acres of ground are re- served, at thr river side. near the post oflice. and called the Market Square, though not reserved for that purpose originally. Being central in position. there is little doubt that the market house for the town will be. ere long, erected on this Square. The “ Market Square ” reserve. in the original plan of the town, is situated between Bay and Hill Sts., very far to the north end of the town. The Pleasure Ground. This is a noble gift to the town by the Govern- ment. It lies mostly on the high ground east of the buildup portion of the town. and contains some 40 acres. As yet. no expense has been put. on it to improve it; but in a few "People’s Cemetery.” This fine property consists of ‘20 acres in the township of Derby. adjoining the town-plot on the south. It was pur- chased by the corporation in 1858; and about one-fourth of it surveyed into small blocks and sold. It is well fenced; and. being naturally a very fine piece of ground, is becoming an attractive spot for the visits of the living. as well as a beautiful and quiet resting place for the dead. It is about a mile from the post ofice. ngRH x.“ CHR 0M! Rzin and sweat 3241\‘A luv: no cflect on (a?

So your seat Mr. Editor at the Scotch ()oncert was some what remote from the perftrmers was it? Quite a number from this part had to take the same pew, and it was also their lot at the Farmers’ Institute Concert; but they have their money in their pockets and won’t make lurther effort to squander it on Durham con- certs. Say when the much talked of change of name from Durham to Cement City takes place, how prom- inently the City Hall will figure. Mr. Robb.

Mr Alex. Allan was in the pole business {or a. few days last WPek hnying Up enough for the new road to the lake. Mr “'m .T. McFadden. who has become a full fledged Agent for Mas- sev Harris implements. made several sales through this part before the storm. His dealings with the public in other affairs have always been with credit to himself and satisfaction to his patrons. and will no doubt con- tinue so unless he becomes a difi'er- out man when he gets into the tricks of the trade. When the roads are blocked is the time something goes wrong amongst stock. Mr Wm Grant had to wait a couple of days to get. the V. S. down to a sick horse; and Mr F Grasby had his own troubles on a half dozen deaths in a. bunch of pigs and could not tell the cause. for as he said he had never in his life behaved himself so well with a bunch of begs. There was a little interchange of the very best stock of this part: and Bunessan leer week. Mr. Geo. Smith purchased a fine horse for $126 from C. Gray. while Mr Wm. Mountain purchased a fine stock bull from Mr. Thos. Jackson.
