Minister of Agriculture at Otiawa, on the subject of breeding horses suitable for heavy dravght in the Dominion of Canada, which I think will not corroborate the statement made by Mr. Gardiner in his last letter, as to the Shire horse being of a mixed and impure breed. For the benetit

books, has shown that the shire horse can claim at least an equally unsullied pediyree as his northern competitor.”

and that they had had illicit relations at various other times and places. Both Mrs. Church and the co respondent, Lithgow, denied the charges of criminal intimacy, but Judge James decided to grant an abso- lute divorce. The septugenarian ex-hus- band will now wake an effort to get back
