Bap Drivixe Accipent —News of a ter- ribie driving accident has been received from Tangier. A wagou containing Miss Butler, school teacher at Tangier, the three Miases Miller, and J. Miller, a boy, weut over a steep embankment. The party were on theway trom Spry Bay to Tangier. ‘The accident happened on Ways,< hill, One of the traces broke and the horse, wagon and occupants were thrown over a steep enbankment. Miss Miller bad an arm broken and was terribly cut about the face and heade Onevfthe other ladies had her skull cracked. A large piece of bone wae removed showing # bole right through the skull. The other two sisters. also sostained serious injucies. The boy was b-dly injured. The horse was killed.— Halifax Herald.

language than the English. If this be so, how is it that Burns used to burst into English whenever he had anything exceed- ingly good to say? As, for instance, in the midst of ** Tam O’Shanter, ” clares that, —

when he de-

“* Pleasures are like poppies spread— You seize the flower, the bloom is shed; Or, like the snowflake on the river,

A moment white, then melts forever.”

Will the learned lecturer tell me how Burns could have poetically expressed this true and beautiful idea in broad Scotch ? Or take the peroration to tne “* Cotter’s Saturday Night” beginning,—

“From scenes like these old Scotia’s grandeur springs, That makes her loved at home, revered

abroad; Princes aod lords are but the breath of kinge,— An hovest man’s the noblest work of God.” How would that verse sound in “a!! the graudeur of the Doric”? Or think of

the sentiment of “ Mary in Heaven,” —the finest thing that Barns wrote,—could it have been expressed in thedialectof the heather ?

For myse’f, I must say that I have little sympathy with the effort that is being made to keep the Scotch idiom of the} Lowlands from dying a vatural death in! the presence of the English language.

ve Gauiiopeiis, Ohio, Dec. 1—Two hun- | dred and fifty patients at the Epileptic Hospital were poitoved today. Dr. Butler and his corps of physicians succeeded only by desperate efforts in preventing any fatalities. As itis,*ome of the patients are atill in a critical condition. The phy- sicians think that the patients were poison ed by means of some article of food eaten by them. The bacterio logical department is making arigid analysis of the food cooked during the past tew days. Some think a drug was pl aced in rome of the victuals. This suspicion, with the wholesale discharge of e mployes, has put the institution in the throes of excitement.

‘IT can’t say. It has been indefinitely postponed. The professor isn’t in condi- tion for the undertaking.’’

‘‘He took a drink of ice water and it made him sick.’’— Washington Star.

By the old Saxon law a maiden and a widow were of different value. The lat- ter could be bought for one-half the sum which the guardian of maid was en- titled to demand. A man, therefore, who could not afford to buy a maides might perhaps be able to purchase a widow.
