Dundas Notes Tue Grits, who are getting beautifully less in this popular section of the County, are somewhat enraged at the small number of voters they could get on the additional voters lists.
Edwin Clay is using his utmost efforts to put down the rum trade, but in spite of his diligence, there are a few stray black ducks left among the Grits in and around Dundas Cross, but we hope the time is fast ap- proaching when they will be all banished to Botany Bay, never to return.
The markets are dull around here. Mr. Burdge is doing a good business in the oat trade and dry goods.
