The scheme includes the ringing of the fire-bell from the po- lice station, by means of a semaphore apparatus We hope the proposed system will receive the favorable attention of our good City Fathers.

THE most pleasant event of the season was enjoyed by a number of our citizens on Saturday night last, when St. Andrew's Day, a day which Scotchmen everywhere love to celebrate, again came round, and the Scotchmen of this place, inspired with that spirit of patriotism and love for old ‘Caledonia stern and wild’ which is im- planted in the breasts of all who have the honor and are worthy of being her sons, and several of other nationalities, with that unbigoted spirit which characterizes the people of Souris, who are at all times both ready and willing to take their share of a night’s enjoyment. laid aside the cares of business and assembled at Oddfellow’s Hall to unite in doing honor to the name and memory of Auld Scotland’s Patron Saint in partaking of an oyster supper prepared for the oceasion. The seat of honor at the table was very properly given to Mr. Mc- Donald, Sheriff of this County, who clearly showed that he is a Scotchman of good type, and perfectly capable of presiding on such an occasion. Besides oysters, numer- ous other dainties crowned the socia! board, After doing ample justice to which the fol- lowing toasts, interspersed with singing of some of those good old songs of which Scotland boasts, were heartily drunk and ably responded to :— The Queen and Royal Family.

But ‘‘man canna tether time nor tide,’ and the hour agreed upon for closing at length arrived, and the happy gathering broke up. and each one went to his respective home thoroughly convineed that he was perfectly hapry and content with having spent not only an enjoyable but a proficable evening.
