A FATAL accident occurred at Welland, Ont., Dee. 3rd, by which Hiram Muniser, a young and promising farmer was killed. It appears he was chopping a tree, and one of the limbs, in falling, struck him on the head killing him almost instantly.

A maAN in St. John, N. B., bought two bar- rels potatoes. which were all rotten before he had them aweek. They were calied ‘‘Early Rose” and ‘Blue Nose” but he changed their names to “Goldsmith Maid” and ‘Dexter’ because they were such fast rotters.— \Vheel- ing Leader.

Mr. LABoucHeEre’s case with the Beefsteak Club is likely to be‘added to the list of English causes celebres. His appeal tothe Master of the Rolls has been succeszfnl, ‘The grounds of it were that the club members could take no official cognizance of newspaper articles ; that two-thirds of those actually present must have voted ayainst him, and that fourteen days—not thirteen—should have been given.

A Gane or Rowpiss BRokEN UP BY THE MontTrREAL Po.tce.—A dangerous gang of young rowdies, the foundation of which is apparently a True Blue Lodge, has been broken up by the police. The operations of this gang and its effects were made known in letters to two women in jail which were in- tercepted by the police. he leader, Thomas Harvie, a lad of 16 years, was to day sen- tenced to two months in jail for assault.

To Wuom it May Coyorrn — Animals should be treated kindly, because—l. They are created for the use of man by the Power that created man himself. 2. The humane and kind treatment of all animals under our control is one of the greatest sources of pleas- ure and happiness. it is much more profit- able, pecuniarily, to take good care of and deal kindly with every creature God has given us. 4. Cruel treatment of animals is a sin and a transgression, which will surely be pun- ished sooner or later.

CONSIDERABLE anxiety has evidently pre- vailed in England during a few days past in reference to the Queens health. It was re- ported that she was suffering from a severe billious attack. Being in her sixty-first year, any attack of illness of a serious kind 1s re- garded with all the more apprehension on that account. It is quite certain that the English people do not desire an early change of sever- eigns. They have experienced a sense of re lief, no doubt, on learning that the Queen’s illness has been of a trifling kind.

Srr Lzoxarp TiLLey will leave Ottawa about the 9th inst., for New Brunswick, stay- ing over a day or two at Quebec to visit the manufacturing establishments of the Ancient Capital. He will remain about three days at St. John, where he will examine a number of those factories which other engagements did not permit of his seeing on his previous visits. He will also spend a day in Frederic- ton. Ve notice by our Fredericton corrres- pondent’s telegram of last evening that the good people of that city are moving in the direction of giving Sir Leonard a reception on his arrival among them, and we have no doubt he will be very cordially received. His St. John constituents will also greet him heartily, as is fit and proper in the case of one of the formost men of the Dominion, holding the most important port-folio in the strongest

and ablest Government Canada has ever had. |

EUROPEAN, L rs ty n, 4 Thomas Bayley Potter, member of Par liament for Rechdale, who recevily visited the United States, on his reappearance in London has been warmly ¢reeted by his friends. The people of the United States, he thinks, differ in some important points from our own. The men do not, he says,

make fortunes there in order to found land- ed families and the consequence is that possessors of large fortunes more eft
