Russell Manning, Mr. Mowat has returned to London Messrs. Kay and Clark, of Guelph, will shortly commence a canvass of this county and we prophesy for them an immense success. The following very fine testimonial which the work has recived from some of our best judges, and Breeders of Stock, who have carefully examined full copies ordered for their own use, speak for themselves.â€" Ontario Agricultural College and Experiâ€" ‘The present age of exportation of live stock, when it costs no more fer the ocean freight of a heavy animal than a light one. The improvemenrt of our live stock, o as to get the largest possible amount of weight, combined with quality, at the least postible outlay, becomes doubly important. Cattle buyers can afford to give from 1 to 2 cents a pound more for heavy beasts (weighing from 1500 to 1800 lbs.) than they can for serubs of 8 or9 Lundred weight, in fact in view of the present state of the British market and the cost of freight, it does not pay to ship light or inferior cattle at all. There has long been a want among our farmers for a reliable work of reference in regard to the breeding and management of farm animals, and we think that noâ€" where will they find the same amount of information and in such a simple and so thorongl: a mauner as in "Stock Doctor and Liver Stock Encyclopedia," by Dr. G. Rusâ€" sel Manning, V. S., a work which fully deâ€" serves the name of Eneyclopredia as it treats on every thing which we have on the farm in the way of Stock viz. Horses, Cattle, Sheep, Swine, Poultry and Bees. The author is one of the most successful practiâ€" cal farmers and breeders of the day, as well as a skillful Veterinary Surgeon, possessing a life long experience. Neyer to my knowâ€" ledge has n book been so thoroughly illusâ€" trated, and points of animals shown so carefully. ‘The history of each breed, illâ€" ustrations of symptoms, the first and last stages of diseases, and directions for treatâ€" ment for the same are minutely given in plain language, so simply that any one can understand, showing just what to do in cases of diseases and how to do it. The work is divided into ten parts or volumes, which are again subâ€"divided into 57 Chapâ€" ters. We doubt if there is a farmer or stockâ€"raiser in the country who cannot learn something in any one of these chap ters worth :more money to him in one year than the whole cost ofthe Book. It is a Canaâ€" dian publication (being published by the World Publishing Co., Guelpt ,) and should be in the hands of every farmer. mental Farm, Guelph, Feb. 7, 1881.

Carnartnr®rs, May 26.â€" Within the past few days particulurs of an outrage, committed on a young orphan gir)} named Sarah Jane Porter, have come to light which discloses a case of almost unparalied brutality. ‘The details of the affair aresub. stantially as follows :â€"The girl who had for some time been in the service of Myr, Win. Carlyle, of Woodstock, left that genâ€" tlemans place about two months ago, and went to reside with Dr. Thrail, of the same place. About three weeks afterwards D;, Thrall sent the girl on to Merritton by train, it was believed, to the home of her unclé. She reached Merritton on Thurs. day, Muy 5th, townrds evening. ‘On get. ting off at the train she stopped a few minâ€" utee ut a shanty occupied by a Mrs, Sex. mith‘s ; she proceeded along the railway track in the direction of her uncle‘s, and had not gone far before she discovered that she was followed by a man, who ultimately came up to her and enquired whether she knew what Mrs. Sexmith said about her, The girl replied "No," upon which the man said, ‘"You stay here." Atthe same time he pushed her to the side of the track where, in answer to a whustle, he was jomâ€" ed by another man. They then placed her with her feet towards the fence, and tied her with a a rope which they placed around hor neck and both legs. The two scoundâ€" 1els then left, but they returned again acâ€" companied by four others, bringing with them a bottle of liquor, cheese and crackâ€" ers. They then bandaged the poor girl‘s eyes, ond putting the botte to her lips tried to get ber to drink of the contents, but she would not, They then proceeded to carry out their fiendish purpose. heepiag her tied the four hours until they had satisfied their brutal lust. Then one of the siz, a oneâ€"eyed ruffain, took their miscrable vicâ€" tim to her uncle‘s bouse,and there left her, burling at her a parting threat that if she told any one of what had occurred he would murder her. He sad also that he would call cn the following Sunday and see her. Notwithstanding the threat the girl told her aunt what had happened,and the latter the same evening informed her hnsband of the affair. Some ladies used their influence to get the ill fated girl a bed atthe hosâ€" pital, and to that institution she was reâ€" moved on the evening of Sund#y, 15th inst., and there she died at half past seven n‘elock Thursday morning. Previous to her death told the story as reluted ahove. _ She she stated nlso that the man with the one eye visited her uncle‘s house on the Bunâ€" day following the day on which the ontâ€" rage was perpetrated, and that her uncle did not seem to know him.
