It is a case of Hobsou's choice in Nortb Grey â€" biscuiU or nothing. The Patrons of Industry will issue a call for a couveutiou to bo held in Toronto in September, with the object of finding out just what degree of auimatiou still reuiaius in the order. The Weekly Suu, or Farmers' Sun as it has been known in the past, is made very iuterestiug and iu- struc'.ive by tho clever pen of Dr. Ooldwiu Smith ("Bystander") who comments weekly on cunent events. Tho Sun has been remodelled and is now an excellent literary and news- paper. A mad bovine ran amuck in tho streets of Toronto last week and created havoc for an hour or so. The World called it a heifer and the Globe said It was a bull. Now it is evident that both oould not be right. If the respective editors will accept of our hospitality for two or tiuee days we will undertake to make the bovine goudcr so plain that in future it will be impossible to make any nii.stake of this nature, and as an extra in- ducement will throw in a few hints upon how to diiliuguish the businens end of a mule from tliat of a honey beo. Mrs. Wm Cowan, Egremant, died last week of cancer. Waller ParRonn fell on a Dundalk aide- walk and brciko hia lug. AVill this be anathar damage case? F. N.

Ho was subject to fits from the effeut of Kunstroko, received years ago. At 20, whuM a man isyiung, he bftinks he knows it all, hu likes to wag hisaetivu tonuuo and exercise his gall ; he struts around in noble rage, tho world is all hifi own ; he l.'kUglis to scorn the world of age, and lists to self aUmc. Ho wears a window in his eyes to tee his whiskers grow ; be thiokK the ladie? pine and dio bucau.se they love him bo.

Fronrthe ranch he hauled all the trnpa of hia owner thirty mile* to the nearest raUway. An ordinary freight car held them the next thirty-six hours going the six hundred and fifty miles to Sydney.

The past week has been » curiosity in terrperature for this cliinaio and would almost lead one to believe wo had moved south to the torrid regions where daily thunder storms and heavy electrical displays aro native born. Tho thermomotcr has registered here about ninety for the past week and wo think it hot. Tliis is cool, however, when compared with many American cities, whcro tho thermo- meter haa coquetted- above the Inuidreds, rnuniiig up in fiouio cases to 110 dogrcca of misery. Let us not give way to jealousy bccaiiso we do not enjoy the same dcgvoc of hciil that our American oousins do. They can grow wateimielou.i and bananas but our cool atmosphere in summer time makes them gieen with envy. North Grey is now in the thick of another political contest. Mr. Mc- Laughlin, tho lately defeated Conser- vative candidate, and Win. Pateraon of DiantforJ, are the opposing forces and the war will bo a mony one. Mr McLuughlin will he a stronger man than ho vsas in the Into contest, not having any Uemedial Hill to pull him down, and ho will have tho practical nssislanco of Dr. Bpioiilo and other strong aiiti-roincdiuli.stg. Un the other hand Mr. Pateraon has tho gOTorumonl " pull," but judging from past experience, and to uao a slang expression, that will not cut much of a figure with Notth Gioy eleolors, who uro Conservatives first, last ond all » the time, excepting when tliey are forced out of the ranks as in tha Itvte olcction. Wo confidently look for jVIr. McLaughlin's return, and believe that this sountry is doomed to have another Wandering Willie on its Mrs. Nicholas Awrey died at Grimsby Park. Lady Tennyson, widow of tho lato poet laureuie, ^s dead. The Roman Catholic church at IJrad ford was destroyed by lire. Tho stoamcr Vancouver and Ijike Ontario collided near Father Point, in a dense fog.

Cecil Uhodos, whose councctioii with the Piitish South Alrica CoUipaiiy and his allcg.d cdiiipliciti in the Transvaal raid of Dr. .lameson are well known, will undoul)tcdly shortly be brought to book for the part ho took in bringing about an invasion of the territory of a friendly State. Comparatively a ihoi l- time ago Mr. Rliod«',>j w.is made a msmb.-r of Her Majesty's Privy Council, but his name will be stricken from the list of tlie Councillors and ho will bo summoned to give ovideiicu bcforo the Parliaiiieiitaiy Sulcct Commilteo of lu- (piiiy into the Cliarlored Company's do- ings.- Ifut there ii to be no repetition of till!

Chambuihiin, tho Cohmial Secretary, desired to »eo him in the dock iuid has discussed tho ijuostion (if indiclmoiit with Arthur J. »alft»ur and tlio Attorney (leneral. There aro ample reasons for indicting Rhodes as for tha conviction of Jameson, but a Irialand its |ir«liminaries would have involved a dohiy of six months in the proceedings of the Conimittuo of Iii(|uiry. So Rhodes haa, meantime, escaped the ordeal ho challenged. When lie reappears in Eng- land it will be with ruined prestige and as a ccnnparatively poor man. An Australian Trotttr Tliny claim to have a good trotter in Australia, and a diallenga has been issu- ed to any Amniicim horse txi go over and race for a «!10,0(K) stakn. Thi.s Aus- IrBllan hnrso, named Fritz, was sired by an Aintoieati horso muntd Vanclnre, by Harold, from the famcJUK Woodburnstrrd. Fritz was brod bark on a ranch, several huMdred miles froi», Sydney. As a three year-old ho troated in 2..W, and kept steadily improving under tho care of his owirer. Tho host raccn in this line were tha tr-odor, Osterloy, and a pacing mare, Mystery, both with records of 2.25.
