Indignation Meeting at Brookfield. AccorDING to announcement, an indigna- tion meeting was held at Brookfield Hall on the evening of Thurrday last. We learn that avery strong resolution condemnatory of the Government was passed. Brookfield used to be a stronghold of Mr. L. H. Davies and his followers. Their Acts, of one short year have, however, pretty thoroughly opened the eyes of the people to the fact that they are ‘‘ Nor THE MEN” to adminis- ter our public affairs. +~<~> + —A job to coax bachelors out of single blessedness, and to decrease the stock of old maids by an increased demand for wives may be involved in some statements made by the ‘* London Review” in regard to the relations existing between marriage and longevity. Old maids and bachelors, it says, rarely attain to extreme old age, and ary ages by wedding a dozen times or 480, while Jacob Jay of Bordeau died in 1772, at the age of 100 years, having laid seventeen wives in the grave, and Margaret McDow- all, a Scotch-woman, died in 1765 at the age of 105, having wept at the untimely de- mise of thirveen men whose names she had borne in rotation. Thus far the ‘‘ Review” does not put a very extraordinary tax upon one’s capacity for bolting a tough morsel, but the strain is rather severe when it goes on to speak of a pair named Rovin, who died in Hungary in 1741, the man aged 170 and the woman 164, leaving a tender youth 116 years old to bewail his orphanage, and reflect on the strength of that tie which held his parents together for 148 years. —_—-—+< Unvusvat regret is felt on account of the death of Madame Cauchon. ‘‘ She was one of the sweetest women in Canada.” So say those who knew her. ~ ‘Birth.
