The long continued wet weather which we hue bad for the past. three weeks has hindered the tumors in this locality great- ly with their work and consequently a large number who had intended putting in mangnls " usual have given up the no- tion, though greatly regretting to do so. Fascinating Entertainer. Mry Ualdwall, the Queen of Canadian The crops in this section. particularly on the dry lands are looking immense. Fall wheat is heading ont, the spring crop is very promising whild the [my on new and second culling will be very" heavy, which all goes to bear oat the dd sayirg that " big cmps may always be expected the: a uuyy winter's snow. FOR THE CONCERT Miss Marietta La Dell, A Brilliant and June seems to be a lavorite mouth for marriages and so to be in keeping with others, one of our young bachelors has committed himself so entirely that a line farm home between Varney and Durham will 1n all likelihood be the scene of u fashionable wedding on or about June 22nd. A wise step. Cr. Th is Week's Budget. During the flying thunderstorm on Wednesday last. lightning struck the gable end at Mr Keller's barn, who now owns and occupies the old M arahall homestead, but apart trom nipping up one rafter and knocking ofia board there was no further harm done, Mr James Baird’s span of norees also had a neirow escape. the lightning ripping up two stakes on the fence just a few feet from where thee were standing attached to the plough. The new school house on the 12th Con., Normanby, was struck but no damage of any account was done, the school children who were occupied with their studies at the time were badly frightened. Miss Janet Marshall. daughter of Wm Marshall. formerly of Vamev. who has been vexy low with diptheria. for 2 weeks, is, we are glad to report, considered out of danger now under the akilful treatment of Dr Brown, Holstein. Mr Quintin Pettigrew is growing Weaker day by day and the and of his earthly pilgrimage may be expected almost at. ‘any time. Mr Reid and sister of Lucknow. Bruce Co, are visiting their cousin, Mrs James Watson, ior a few days at present, Mr Andrew McIlvride of Langdon, AL betta, is according to a letter received last week, in a very critical condition from the effects of typhoid fever, being 118 days in the hospital in Calg my, We sincerely hope that his life any be prolonged as his removal by death would be a heavy blow to his wife and 6 of n. tatnil, in a camper- atively new country. Mr Jno Marshall Jr, is seriously threa- tened with appendicitis, according to the opinion of three doctors. Dr Brown is treating him with the hopc of removme the trouble without the knife in which we hope he may be successful. Mr And Stewart loot a valuable steer the other d-oy by getting its head caught in the panel of a. fence & choking to death Mr Kellar in making a great improve, ment on his farm by erecting a. fine wire fence on both aides of his lace, wlneh like most German plan-v. tum past the house to the barn. A very sensible idea. Mr Jae Pater, Sn, seems to lie taking a new lease of life and is able to take tt walk every day down their fine lane. We hope the old gentleman may continue to improve in health. Mr Colin Blythe will be a busy man when the haying season starts as he has about 180 acres of heavy hay to cut and secure. Miss Mary Ellen 1Lwflin returned home from Toronto last Saturday to spend the summer mos " home. Mary is " in- dustrious, energetic girl, both with her hands and her brains. as in addition to earning her own living she has attended the College three nights in the week the past year wtth the exception of three mos which she lost by sickness last win- ter. Nevertheless Mary succeeded in dividing honors with the cleverest in the Collcge being 6 marks lelnnd in one study and away ahead in another. and so now Miss Mary is a full fhsdged sten- ographer.

The drill is entirely different this your every movement tending towards deto patch and quickness. instead of a de- tailed instruction to seize the Imyonet m a certain potdtton at the word l, to draw it out " the word 2. place on rifle and lock at 3 and down with the arm at t. it is now on the Word .. tix hayonets.” seize it with left hand and place on rifle as smartly as possible. This is one in- stance of the chan e. The plan is to make the drill appficahle as near as can be to cavalry and Infantry alike, that the "Alphabet and the Grammar of the soldiers twinning shall be the same tor him who marches us for him who rider." Drill has been ttitppMed, rifle exercises. twkirutishing, and other important work necessary to enable the soldier to act to the best ad vantage, is laid down in con- vine and easily acquired form. It cansé ttttttte confusion of course to the ofrieers, the mixing of the old with the new. Medold Co. No 2. is the largest, hav- ing w, men.

No one in our company has yet received any intimation to take Dundonald's place l Messrs Jack Hoefiin and John Dung- htss have each vrected n. windmill on their. farms which sends the water up the steep hill to their buildings which will prove. " great benefit to their stock and otherwise. Mr Wm Fender will follow suit. providing their mills give satisfaction ( Wttt is cautious ye ken.) The total strength of the 31st this year is 201 men all told including 16 luutds- ment. The rest are taken up by the staff ofBeevs and amt! non-cums. A large body of cavalry and artillery are here this year numbering 1299 horses. What a. magnificent sight. such a host of man’s nohlest friend'. and still better the legions of that better animal. man. in all youth, life and vigor, the promise of better pay has materialized. which must. bear fruit in yenrs to come. by placing the militia in a better standing. securing and retaining a. steamer class of men. The picnic which was held in Wm Car- son's grove on Friday last was . succut in every way, the weather was all thet could be deemed, and the crowd, which won quite large. uppeueed to enjoy them- calves. Mr Miller (litu) was present. picking up beech nuts (Votes) but appear- ed very innocent on the platform, from which he delivered a. neat little speech quite in keeping with the occasion and received a hearty hand clap a: the close. A foot ball match was played between a picked homo team and a team Irwin Ball's Corners. which resuned in a some of one for the visitors.
