Arthe St. James’ Kirk Bazaar in Market Hall, on Friday evening, the balloting by the admirers of Sir John and Mr. Macken. ne resulted in a victory for the latter. This is suggestive. When Mr. Mackenzie was in power his admirers, at bazaars, voted briskly and, when victory was his, they sent him walking canes. Now Mr. Mackenzie is in opposition. He is still victorious at bazaar balloting, but instead ef sending the usual walking cane, his admirers send him stools. Long may Mr. Mackenzie live to sit on the stools to shed tears of repentance.

County Court.

His Honer Judge Alley yesterday deliver- el jvdgment in the following cases :—

Meacham vs. Wadman—Judgment for plain- tiff

Meacham rs. Robertson— Judgment for de- fendant.

Meacham rs. Braddeck—Judgment for de- fendant.

Fyfe va. Meacham—Judgment for plaintiff.

The fatal objection in the case of Meacham va, Robertson was that the defendant’s out- buildings were misplaced in the sketch. In- stead of being represented as forming three sides of a square, to afford a shelter to his cat- tle, they were represented as being in one straight line.

In the case of Meacham vs. Braddock, the defence was that the defendant’s farm was misrepresented---cutting him short of twenty- five acres. Another ebjection was that the Atlas is incorrect, inasmuch as it represents Haliday’s whart te be three-quarters of a mile above McNally’s wharf, whereas they are di- rectly opposite each other. Braddock was sued for the price of the Atlas, and won mainly on the ground of the first objection.

In the case of Mr. Fyfe, the evidence of the Hon. Neil Mcleod, which was not before noticed, showed that his recommendations were excellent.

Stop spending so much on fine clothes, rich food and style. Buy good, healthy food, cheaper and better clething; get more real aud substantial things ef life every way, and especially stop the foolish habit of running after expensive and quack doctors or using so
