O Clocks give that that the bost The Superintendant of the Institation for the Deaf and Dumb at Belleville asks for infortsation and particnlars of desf mutes between ‘the ages of 7 and 20. It is the purpose of the Institute and the derire of the CGGovernment that established it to offer an education to all thus affiicted who are unable to reseive instruction in the common schools. Those who are able to pay gre charged a small annwal fee; those who are "Oh, it‘s aisy, plase your Higlmess. Bure one domino would do tur all of us, if ache tuk it in turn. I‘m only the eighteouth many, and theres twelve more of us to come." The loud laughter of the jovial Duke, probably the heartiest he had had for a long time, was the response to this explanation, folowed by & louis d or to the dragoon, and a promise to keep his ‘saycret‘ till the entire troop had supped. j to, 1,800 acres, for on the Pine River, "Well, then," said the trooper, "since the sayerct mnst come, plase yer Royal Highness, I am one of Clare‘s horseâ€"that‘s the guard of hquor toâ€"nightâ€"and when our men were ordered out we clubbed our moâ€" ney to buy a ticket and agreed to take our turn at the supper twble, turn and turn about." % Messers. Thompson and Laidlaw sold their.tract eftimber land in T , After watching him for some time the Duke acknowledged he was a wonder, and langhingly left the room ; but shortly afâ€" terward, on passing through another, he { saw the yellow domino again, aud as act» avely at work as ever, devastating the dishâ€" es everywhere, and emptying the chamâ€" } pagne bottles as rapidly as they were ‘ brought to him. Perfectly amazed, the Duke could not at last restrain his curiosiâ€" ty. *"Who," he asked, "is that insatiate ogre that threatens such annihilation to all the labors of our cooks ?" Accordingly one of the suite was despatched to him. "His Royal Highness the Duke of Orleaus deâ€" sires the yellow domino to unmask." But the domino begged to be excused, pleading the privilege of masquerade. ‘‘There is a higher law," replied the officer ; "the royal order nthst be obeyed." "Well then," anâ€" swered the incognito, "if it must be so, it must !" and unmasking, exbibited the tudâ€" dy visage of an Irish trooper. "What!" exclaimed the Duke, "the whole troop coming to supper ?" not are educated at the experse ofthe Province. "Particulars should be sent to the Superintendent, Mr. E. Mathison, Belâ€" ‘"Why, in the name of Polyphemus!" exclaimed the Regent, as he advanced to him, "who and what are you? I h:ve seen you eat and drink enough for a dozen men, and yet you seem to be as empty as ever." ! Among the adventurers recorded of the famous Irish baigade in Paris, one of the ‘Imust amusing was in the time of the Re: â€" | ent Orleaus, in honor of whose birthday a | grand masquerade was given in Paris. It j was a highâ€"class affair; tickets were a douâ€" | ble louis d or for each : all the rank and |bt-nuty of Paris were assembled round the | Regent, and a costly and luxaurious supper crowned the attractions of the night. While the entertainment was proceeding, one of the Prince‘s suite approached and whispered to him : "It is worth your Royal Highness‘ while to step into the supper rooms; there is a yellow domino there who is the most extraordinary cormorant ever witnessed ; he is a prodigy, your Highness; he never stops eating and drinking, and the attendants say, morcover, that he has not done so for some hours." His Royal Higlmess went accordingly, and sure enough was the yellow domino laying about him as described, and swallowing averything as ravenously as though he had just begiun. Raised pies fell before him like garden palings before a field pieceâ€"pheasâ€" aunts and quails geemed to fly down his throat in a little coveyâ€"the wine he drank threatâ€" ened a scarcity, whatever might be the next vintage. | The following pocm was written by Mary H. Krout of Crawfordsville, Indiana, when the author was in hor thirteenth year, and is one of the most beautiful over written :â€" â€" â€" Thoy drive home the cows from the pasturs, Up through the long .h‘d’ lane, Where the quail whistlos loud in the whentSecld, That is yellow with ripening gruin. They find, in the thick waving grassos, Where the scarletâ€"lipped strawberry grows, ‘ They gather the carliest snowdrops, And the first c:imson buds of the rose. They toss the hay in the meadow, They gather the elder bloom white, They find where the dusky grapes purple | In the softâ€"tinted October light. They know whore the apples hang ripest, I _ And are sweeter than Italy‘s wines ; They know where they hangs the thickest _ On the loug thoruy blackberry vines. They gather the delicate sonweeds, Aud build tiny castles of sand ; They pick up the boautiful seashellsâ€" Fairy barks that havo drifted to lund. They wave from the tull rocking treeâ€"tops, Whore the oriole‘s hammock next swings, And at nightâ€"time are folded in slumber By a song that a foud mother sings. Those who toil bravely are stongest, The itmble and poor become gront ; And from those brownâ€"bamded children Shall grow mighty rulers of state, The pen of the author and statesman, The noble and wise of the land, The sword and the chisel and paletto, , Shall be held in that little brown hand, The Yellow Domino.

P Moved by Mr. McColman, seconded by Mr. Davis, that the Report be adopted as amended in Committee of the Whole. Mr, Middleton pointed out that‘Mr. Meâ€" Lean‘s argument simply showed that the municipalities in the immediate vicinity of the school were the only ones to any exâ€" tont bencfitted by it The pupils from the southern and eastern parts of the County went to Mount Forest and Collingwood reâ€" spectively. _ Messrs. Cleland and the Warden spoke in favor of the grant, after which the moâ€" tion to make the grant was put and declarâ€" ed lost. Mr. McLean also spoke strongly in favor of the grant. He contended that the Trusâ€" tees appointed by the Connty Council had forced the towh into building the High School, and it was now very unfair for the County Council to refuse to give it a reasâ€" onable assistance. _ He also pointed out the stand taken by the pupils of the school. Moved by Mr. McLean, seconded by Mr. Cleland, That a grant of $1000 be made to Owen Sound High School.

Dr. Chistoe‘s motion not to pay the account was then put and declared carâ€" ried. . C Mr. Gamey said he knew something about the arbitrations in question, and in two of the cases at least they were wholly uncalled for. Messrs. Middleton and MeCallum favored payment of the account. He considered the Inspectors were too well paid for their services, as they got§186 each from the Council for travelling expenâ€" ses and paper, and this would more than double cover the cost of.these. Dr, Christoo moved that the amount be not paid. He considered that the work done came within the duties of :the Inspecâ€" tor for which he was being paid by the Council. Clause 1 recommended the payment of $24 to the Inspector of Schools forEast Grey in connection with arbitration in Uaniicn School Sections.

He at once set about clearing m farm, and was prospering as well as new settlers generally do until about a week ago last Thursday, when a most lansent» able misfortune befel him. On that day he was engaged in making a slash fence, and about noon his wife and a small son came out to him with some water. Both stood at some distance from a tree which be was felling, expecting that they wore out of reach of danger, By some meavs or other, however, the tree swung back, and, striking another and against which they were standing, crushed the unfortunâ€" ate woman between the two trees, killing her instantly. ‘The boy escaped almost by a miracle. Mr. Garbett himself wasnlso struck by the falling tree and hbad a very narrow escape. â€" His shculder was knocked out of jo‘nt and his whole arm badly bruised, besides having his ankle badly crushed and several of his teeth knocked out,.

He lind a box of gun eaps also, which fitted upon the end of the fuse. At a distanre was a man who seemed to be poking #otind the stumps with s epade, and who had what appeared to be a straight iron crowâ€" bar with a chiset shaped point and a broad head on the otter end. ‘After examining the stump and deciding upon the right place for the charge to be placed, he sank this down far into the ground, and thon drove it as deep as ha thought necessary in a sloping direction underfthe stump with & maul. The rule is to get the charge up as close to the woo! of the stump as possible, and about the eentre. This man made the hole ; Mr. Carpenter followed with his basâ€" ket and his tamper. He first found the depth of the hole with his tamper ; then he took the cartridge and put a cap on the fuse, sunk it in the soft explosive, where it reâ€" mained while he gently slid the cartridge into the hole, pushed it to the bottom with the tamper, He then pushed two or three picces of soft mould or earth down to the cartridge, pressing it lightly ; he next tamâ€" ped the hole full of earth, and lighting & match set the fuse on fire. We all stood back then about ten rods, and waited for the result. ‘The gtump was a tough old oak about three feet across, with a firm hold on the clay and looked as if it might iast, if undis:urbed, for the nexst hundred years. All at onee we saw that stump rise out of the ground, a puff of smoke followed, some splinters_gnd a loud sound as of cracking timber came out of its ecntre, and from the side where the oEnridge was put in, there was a rush of earth, roots and grase, sent up into the air for about fifty to seventy feet. ‘The thing was done. The whole opâ€" eration was repeated over and over with the same result. In less than an hourthere were ten stumps blown up in this way. On exâ€" amining the stumps after the explosion, we found many of them split in three and four sections, and so cut up that it was light work for the oxen to draw them awhy to the heap for burning. ‘The powder had left a hole or chambert, which it had hollowed out as if by compression; it was not very powder for clearing out large '-hnp.'vkh the costs and results: We rmhet Mr. Jolhu The editor of the Michigan Farmer thne dum_'ibcf the method of using the giant w# 4 ze o $ +4
