Mr. Graham condacted the proâ€" ceedings and made a brief opening statement introducing Rey. Dr. Somerâ€" ville on whom the honors of the day and the dedicatory service were placed. When he bad spoken Mr. Graham offered the invyocation after which hymn 385 was sung, " Sweet is the Solemn yoice that calls," etec. Rev. Mr. Campbell, Mulock, read from Ezra 3rd chap. Rev. Mr. Little, Chatsâ€" worth, a portion of Psalim 102 follewed by hymn 4¢7, " Jesus with thy church abide." Prayver was then offered by Rev. Jas. Skene, Hillsdale, who had just arrived, and this was followed by Rev. Mr. McNab, Kilsyth, reading Psalm 132. Hymn464, "The Church‘s One Foundation ‘‘ preceded the adâ€" dress of Dr. Somerville, which was a very able and appropriate effort and delighted all who heard it. And the weather was superb as was necessary for the succers of an out door function; and pastor, people, preachers, politicians, publishers and other perâ€" sons from a distance were particularly proud and pleased to be present ; and the singers sang with sweetness the songs of Zion ; and the offerings showed loyalty and liberality, and the provisâ€" ion for the inner man was excellent and ample as was expected of Dornoch maids and imatrons, and a sweet soft moon shone brightly at the close over swains and maidens whose eyes spake love to eyes that spake again. Tuesday of last week was a red letter day in the history of the Dornoch Presbyterian Congregation for it came to pass in the history ot their church that on that day the people assembled with one accord to lay the foundation stone of a new edifice for the worship of God. Corner Stone of Their New Church Laid By Rev., Dr..Somerville. Dr. Smith then read the document (which appears below) containing the history of the church and which was to be deposited in the hollow of the stone and the crowd moved to positions near the corner where Dr. Somerville was presented by Mr. Jas. Ledingham with a handsome silver trowe! on which was engraved * Presented to Dr. Somerville on the occasion of layâ€" ing the Corner Stone of Latona Presbyâ€" terian cburch, Dornoch, Jalv 30, 1901." A tin box bad been provided and in this were placed the coins of Canada, frormm 50 cent piece downward, the history read by Dr. Smith, the last Annual Report of the church, and copies of the last issues of the ** Record," the * Westminister ‘* the ** Globe" the ‘"‘Durham Review °* and the " Chatsâ€" worth Banner." This box was then placed in the hollow of the stone which was formally laid, and imagination pictures the natives of some future Dornoch examining with eagerness the records placed there by their ancestors, for assuredly when next human eyes behold it there will be a Ledingham, a Smith or a Skene hard by. An appropriate dedicatory prayer was offered by Dr. Somerville, and another stone had to be laid. With a touching and delightful appreciation of long and honored service the comâ€" mittee had arranged that a companion stone should be Jaid by Mr. Geo. Ledingham, one of the fathers of the church. _ Accordingly, on behalf and in the name of the Sabbath School another stone was laid by him. Mr. Ledingham has been for about 25 years Superintendent of the school, and a teacher in it since 50 years ago. Ministers bave come and gone, a generation has passed away, but the devyoted worker bas remained at his post, and it will be the wish of many that he will hoid that post for many years yet before he receives promoâ€" tion. Mr. Ledingham ** took up a corner " in the old church and we have an idea he could handle an axe as well i‘ not better than a trowel. A voluntary offering was then taken up, Hymn 469 * Christ is oar Corner Stone " was sung, the benediction pronounced and the seryvice was over. Evening. After refreghments and an hour or more of social chat more platform work followed. The local choir was one of the best features of the occasion. They were â€"lately strengthened by the presence of Mr. and Mrs Percy Lawâ€" rence who are not only public spirited citizens but freely lend their talents to every goud cause. The pieces selectâ€" ed were very suitable and rendered with spirit. _ Mrs. (Rey.) Campbell contributed a fine vocal selection, and Miss Wadsworth, Toronto, who was visiting in the neighporhoo% gave a C e o i se it o ce " wellâ€"rendered recitation. . Rev. Mi. Graham was in the chair, and though se o B ELN Meeo es °4 3020 atvrasn tihitctiedtih ie inet ipur diepuinl he bad many apologies to read from absentees, he had material! enough to draw from to make his position a pleasant one. Mr. Geo. Binnie was called upon and very happily referred to the grief of the old men in Temple times at the inferiority of the new temple to the old. The experience here he was sure would be reyersed. Still, he had no doubt round the old church many hapâ€" py memories clung, and the successes of the past would be repeated in the future it the same devotion to daty and principle were followed. Rey. Jas. Skene spoke pleasantly and eloquently. In a reminiscent mood be referred to the past. He had strained a point to get there and re« DORNOGH PRESBYTERIANS REJOICE WHL AND TRULY [AD .fi x'!.».j'fi Rev. Mr. McNabat some length improved the lessons of the hour and the fading twilight is our reporter‘s excuse for the absence of a report of his excellent speech and of those that followed. Rev. Mr. Campbell, Mulock, reminded them of the Eenefits to be derived from harmony and the faithâ€" ful supporting of the hands of their Ba.swr. Mr. C. Ramage of the Review, urham, also spoke briefly, vbut withâ€" out doubt the speech that was waited for was that of Rev. Mr. Little, their old pastor. _ In his own earnest manner he uttered many warm words of counsel and encouragement which might we suppose have been reproducâ€" ed, but it would not be easy to reâ€" produce the magnetic sympathy that waited on his words. Rev. Dr. Somerville would like to see a composite picture of Dornoch congregation as a band of workers and hoped the pastor secure such a picture that would stimulate every component part of it to have such a meeting there some months hence as to leave not a ghost of debt on the new church. A brief address was given by Mr. Geo., Lamb an elder of the congregaâ€" tion. joiced to be with them at such a time. There was much to do yet, difficulties to be met with perseverance and courage. The past was interesting but it was our duty to forget it except so far as it was a stimulus for the future, " pressing forward to the things that were before." The necessity was laid upon us to haye a plan of life that would reach beyond this world, to beâ€" com~ impressed with the character of Christ, or we could never be like him. Appropriate closing exercises followâ€" ed and everyone provounced the opening a success. Notes. Rev. Mr. McDiarmid a former minister, sent from Windsor a message of good will. The first pastor of the congregation was Rev. Jas. Cameron, followed by Revd‘s McDiarmid, _ Little, _ and Graham. This congregation has sent out more than an average of spiritual workers. Amongst them are Wm. Boyle, Coloraâ€" do ; Alex. Ledingham, India ; Jas. Skene, Hillsdaile ; J. Fraser Smith, formerly missionary to China and In lia now stationed atâ€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"; Alex. Skene and R. Ledingham at Mission work in the North West. From offerings and other sources, the collections of the day amounted to nearly $170. Mrs. Jno. Mills, Valetta, timed a visit to the old home to take in the occasion. The pulpit was supplied hy Probationâ€" ‘ers until the Rev. Arch. McDiarmid having ac¢'897pted a call, was inducted on Feb. 5th 1874â€"An arrangement having been made by which the pastor supplied the pulpit and controlled the station of Williamsford continued in force until the year 1880 when the congregation deemed it advisable to make arrangeâ€" ments for and form a union with the l Rocky Saugeen. Mr. and Mrs. Jas. Renton, Egreâ€" mont, were present and remained over night at Mrs. Rs father‘s, Mr. Skene. Pleased to meet with the genial postmasters from (Glascoté and Wilâ€" liamsford. Miss Lizzie Fee. Normanby, sojournâ€" ed with old friends. Quite a number from the sister congregation at the Rocky were present. The 4irst Presbyterian minister who visited Latona was Rev‘d (G. McIntosh, who held servicé in the house of Mr. James Smith. This was in the year 1844. and services more or less irregular were held from this date until the sumâ€" mer of 1857, A. D. when the mission stations of Johntown and the townline of Bentinck and Sullvan were raised to the status of congregations and in this yenlr the first part of the old church was built. The following is the HISTORY OF LATONA CONGREGATION. On the 12th of August, 1857, a call from the cougregations was presented to James Cameron by the Presbytery of Hamilton, meeting in Elora, and sustainâ€" ea by said Presbytery in 1859. The call being â€" accepted, Mr. â€" Cameron â€" was ordained and inducted at Johntown on Feb. 16th 1859, and on the same day a session was formed and the following elders for this station ordained:; Duncan Smith and Duncan McDonald. The first session meeting in connection with this congregation was held in the house of Rev. James Cameron on the 27th day of July 1859, just about 42 years ago. n the 5th of October of this year a session meeting decided to ask congregaâ€" tion to appoint two more elders and nccordinglty David Hastie and John Duncar after being duly elected were ordained on the 21st of I&)y’. 1859. The second part of the old church was built in 1867, and on the l1th day of September 1870 an addition was made to the session h}' the ordination of George Ledingham, Jos. Byres, and (Geo. Skene. In 1872 the Rev. James Cameron resigned to take charge of Chatsworth alone, this was a matter of deep regret to this charge as shown by the following minute copied from the congregational record of a meeling in Feabruary 1872â€"moved by George Ledâ€" ingham sec. by Joseph Igrres. that while we regret parting with Mr. Cameron as minister, we hereby tender him our loye and best respects and our sincere thanks for his Christain forbearance to us as a congregation and we hope that he will increase in usefulness and enjoy a long life in the ministry." At this same congregation meeting the name Latona was giyen to this charge on resolution by David Dunn, sec. by Francis Boyle. _ During Mr. McDiarmid‘s pastorate, which closed by his resignation on Oct. 1st 1891, Francis Boyle was ordained to the eldership on Sept. 8th 1878, and Wim. Cranston on June 20th 1884. THE DURHAM REVIEW After some time of supply by Proâ€" bationers and students Rev. Jf)htl Little accepted a call and was ordained and inducted at Latona into the united congregations on June 6th 1893. During the Rev. John Little‘s pastorâ€" ate which closed much to our regret by his translation to the Owen Sound Presbytery on Oct. 30th 1898, to take charge of the neighboring congregation of Chatsworth, Robert Mills, Wm. Duncan and Charles Boyle were added to the session by election and ordained on the 17th day of February 1894, On June 6th 1899, a call from the united charges having been accepted by Rev, Wim. Graham, our present pastor, He was inducted at Latona. Owing to death: and remoyais the session having been reduced, it was deâ€" cided to appoint four new menrbers, and nc(-ording‘)y. after being duly . elected, Dr. J. L. Smith, Donald A. Smith, Dunâ€" can Morrison and James Ledingham were ordained to the eldership on April 20th 1900. And now, being Tuesday July 30th 1901 at 2.30 p. m. the Rev. Ur. Somerville appointed by this congregation and the Presbytery of Owen Sound lays the Corner Stone of a bew church and we trust the foundation stone of renewed zeal and faithfulness to the cause of our master.

Jxo. 8. BuacKk, Clerk. The steady toue in the trading at the Western Cattle Market was contnaed toâ€" day and a fair amount of actiyity . was shown. ‘The run was light and there was an active demand, particularly for good and chorice cattle, ‘Iunere was a scureity of fine stock and the offerings in that class was soon sold out. Exporters were firm and active, the best loads taken in short order. Good butchers‘ were ready sellers but poor ones were decidedly dull. Feedâ€" ers and stockers were inactive and there were milkers offered. _ Swall stufl was daull and weak and hogs weru active and unchanged _ The total run was 51 loads, meluding 662 cattle, 1.12%0 sheep and lawbs, 44 calves and 1,729 hogs. Export Cattleâ€"The market was steadâ€" 1er and there was a better demand. _ ‘The offerings were light and many of the cattle were of indifferent quality, ‘Tle choice stock was soon sold und prices were about the same as those which ruled yesterday. Iwo or three loads brought $5.15 and a good many cattle sold at better than $5. Sales ol heayy cattle were made as low as $4.60, and medium grades including light weights, were steady at $4.25 to $4.60. Expert cows wers quiet aud nominally unchanged, Dealers report space condiâ€" tions as slightly improyed and they say that more cattle will be wanted «s this market uext week. Pomona, August 5th, 1901. Butchers‘ Cattleâ€"Those buyers who confine their attention to fine grades complain that they were unable tâ€" secure as many cattle as they wanted. ‘The ofâ€" feriugs of butchers‘ stock were fairly large, but there was a scarcity of good cattle. The market for picked lous was firm at $4.40 to $475 and choice were in good demand at $4 to $4.40. Other cattle were dull and there were few sales. The market has been well supplied with medium grade cattle of late and dealers are either unwilling or unable to handle apymore. â€" Cows are particularly slow and they are quoted lower at $2.75 to $38. 35. Feeders and Stockersâ€"Receipts small and business very quiet. Quotaiions are nominally unchanged. Mileb Cowsâ€"The market is in the same conditionas regards good cows ; they are very scarce and sell readily at $50 or more. â€" Poor milkers are plentiful and alâ€" though they are generally sold for some price, they are very slow and weak. Sheep, Lambs & Calyesâ€"Market conâ€" tinaes dulil, heavy receipts and poor deâ€" mand. â€" Export ewes are 5¢c lower at $3 35 to $3.50 per ewt. Other prices are unâ€" changed, but there is a weak tone. Hogsâ€"Deliveries were large and the market was steady. Quotations are unâ€" changed at $7.25 per cwt for selects, $7 for cornâ€"fed and $6.75 for lights and fats. _ Pn wells of reesse _ | ‘ARAFFINE WAX â€"| VOTERS‘ LIST, 1901. ‘Will keep them nboolmlf.nohtm and acid proof.
