Now came the Syudicate‘s â€"opportunity. It could not, so soon after. the price of lands was fixed, rescind the. order and raise the price, but conditions were attached to the purchase which effect. wally barred the door against nineâ€"tenths of the settlers seeking lands in the Northâ€" West, the conditions being : that buiidings be erected satisfictory to the Syndicate, 4bat oneâ€"half the land be broken up and eropped within four years, and that the payments of principal and interest on the purehase money be kept up, otherwise, the land reverts to the Syndicate without any â€"â€"For some years M.

Every now andâ€"again we hear complaints of young meu having nothing to do, of ‘allthe avenuesto wealth and fame being closed, of there being no good situations open, aud of the difficulty of securing the coveted place when it‘ is open. ‘There is no donbt a great deal "of truth in all this. ‘The professions are unâ€" doubtedly overâ€"crowded and many»trad are suffering from the same cause.

Jt never strikes these young men who lose their sitnations, or who, barely succeed in their bnisness,that the fault lies wmaiuly with themselves, nor does it ever occur to them that their employers on the ane hand, or those with . whom they may have business relations on the other,can ue verhbave any confidence in young men who give themselves up to unlimited cards and whiskey cocktails.

A Smart Swixoue.â€"This morning, on the Market Square, a smart swindle was practised by a wandering Jew, on thase of the citizens who allowed theis . desire for gain to overcome their: prudence. . The swindler worked his game thus :â€"He had a numuber of siaall boxes of soap,into one of whichâ€"be puat a ten dollar bil}, audâ€" then shuffled . the boxes through each other. In so doing, by a sleightâ€"ofâ€"hand, he immannged to extract the box with the ten dollars,â€"and then allowed a person to bave a draw fpon paying $8,with n chance, as he said, jof \mking $10.~~The sharper had imaie: $12 mside of ten..amiuntes, when a politema® eame round nnd the fellow :made himself scarce. ‘Theâ€" men who were "tuken in" felt about as sheap as they possibly could have done, for they considered themselves too shrewd to be victimized so easily.â€" Guelph Meroury. | "The directors of the Saungeen Valley have decided to ask tor aâ€"renewal of the charter for five years,/and for power to extend to the lake to corinect witis any railway which way "be desired.

As there were no appliances ;with which to fight the flames in the vil~1 }hgn, teleprams ware sant to Thorold and St. Catharines for assistance, which was promptly feplied to, each place sending a steamer. They, however, arrived too late: to be of much service. . The storehouse, containing manafactured rtook, was sepâ€" !urn(od from the wonin building, and was lanved. The canse is snpposed to bar» beon from over heating. During the whole season the mills hav6 been very busy, runâ€" ning at their full capasity.
