The charge is one of assault and battery against two young men of the town. It seems hard to believe that Durham has a man mean enough to originate a quarrel with those poor little beg- gars whose conduct here some of the young white peOple might imitate withagood eeal of profit. Mayor McIntyre is the presiding magistrate. A writer of keen observation says : “We live in a land of high moun- tains and high taxes. low valleys and low wages. big crooked rivers and crooked statesmen. big lakes, big pumpkins, men with pumpkin heads, silver streams that gambol in the mountains, pious politicians that gamble in the night. roaring cataracts and roaring orators. fast trains. fast horses and fast young men. sharp- tued shoes, noisy children, fertile plains that lie like a sheet of water, and a lot of Grit and Tory newspap- ers that lie like thunder. An inneeper, referring to a horse which two novices were to drive. told them he was perfectly quiet. but the rein must be kept off his tail. “ Right.” said they; “ we will bear it in mind.” When they returned the inneeper inquired how they pm on. “Splendidly,” was the reply, “ \Ve had one rather sharp shower, but we took it in turns to hold the umbrella over the horse’s tail, so there was no real danger. A newspaper was running a. serial story, “The Truth.” One week. so much space being devoted to other matters, the editor was unable to continue the story. so made the fol- lowing announcement. containing perhaps more truth than any Other item in the paper: °‘ ‘The Truth’ was crowded out of this issue on ac- count of the press of more important matter.â€"Farmer’s Advocate.

The a50ve was the subject of an ex- cec dingly interesting address given Tuesday night in the Town Hall by Rev. Jas. Lediard, the Agent of the Children’s Aid Society. Mr. Lediard is the master of a persuasive elo- quence and he employs it in his plea for Neglected Children. They are. he says. the country’s and the churches’ best assets and no pains or expense are too much to train them to good citizenship. The following facts came out in the address : Many instances were given of cruel. ty and neglect. and immoral surround- ings from which children had been removed by the speaker and by the very eflicient help of Constable J as. Carson who has always been a warm friend of the Society. No less than 14 children have been removed (rom this town and the adjacent country. On this Mr. Lediard based a strong plea for financial help. and instanced the bases of Meaford. Hanover. Thornbury and other places who by an annual canvass of the citizens are enabled to send in a good round sum yearly to assut in this import- ant and benevolent work. There are about 30 C. A. Societies in the province. Over 2,000 children have been rescued and placed in homes. Of these nearly 100 belong to this county and are wards of this society. As a result the following Indies were appointed a committee for this purpose and will at once solicit sid for this work :â€"Mrs. Grant. Mrs. McArthnr, Mrs. Remege, Mrs. Stew- art, Mrs. Wolfe.
