But the horse had a. difierent view, and when he came lopposite his stable door, Wheeled in and ldisappeared. The pound-keeper gazed sadly and solemnly into the place where the horse went, and as he thought of the trouble he took to bring the horse home, he heaved a deep sigh. Hearing. some small boys laughing> at him, he pretended he was satisfied with the result; and carefully shut and locked the door. Now, who says that a. pound keeper’s life is all pleasure and profit. He has his cares and trials the same as other men. a ramble up Mill Street, and the Pound-keeper in some mysterious man- ner got on its track. When he sighted the animal, there was a placid smile on his amiable countenance, and a bum- orous twinkle in his eye. as if he were estimating how much feed he could stow away in the horse, before the owner got him back. He slowly and carefully drove him towards “the fort,” according to the Bylaws, allowing a little playful gamboling on the way, as if he were saying to himself “all right my fine fellow.

He stated that he beâ€" longed to a circus, but had laid off through sickness for some time, and was now on his way to Join Cole’s Circus at Buffalo, making a few dollars as he went along, to pay expenses. His-fefils were most astonishing, and showed that he was either a rubber man, or a thoroughâ€" ly trained and skill’ul performer, He collected over $2, and his show was worth it. A number of persons were quite willing to stand and eagerly watch‘ the performance, but when the but came around they sluuk ofl. Mean ! ing hall was well filled all evening. The strawberries and iceâ€"cream tasted deliciously, and the bouquets were eagerly (?) sought after by the young men, at least every one of the sterner sex wore a bouquet, and many wore several, which, of course, represented so much cash in the hands of the ladies who were selling them. The band played at intervals for an hour ‘or so, and everyâ€" thing passed off nicely and pleasantly. The receipts 'amounted to $65.68, which will be applied to the new church.

The LIBERAL man says he does this, and you might as well be dead as out of the fashion. Somebody has been feeding the Econ- omist man with mud-turtle soup, and he fills nearly half-a column with a glowing account of the fact, which he describes as a “Royal Supper.” He might have had many similar feasts, long ago, if we had known he was so fond of such things, for we got tired of them some time since. The mud-turtle was reared by Capt. Milne, of Rouge Mount, who presented it for the occasion. WATER FROM BOND’S LAKE.â€"Mr. Chas. Chamberlin will undertake to supply Richmond Hill with water from Bond’s Lake, for hotels. houses, and fire protection purposes, for the sum of $1,200, the Village to pay him that sun) when the work is completed.

By- law No 378 of the township of Scarboro’, and By-law No 632 of the township onork passed respectively Nov. 24th, 1879, and Feb. 1880, were recommended to be com firmed, and the necessary uuthoratlve by- laws were passed. This report stated that during the year 184 persons received municipal aid. Of these receiving aid 98 would be benefitted by the establishment of an Industrial Home, the remaining 86 receiving temporary aid. in the aggregate, $6,462 were paid for maintaining the poor. Reports from the counties of Waterloo and Middlesex, show that: established homes are cheaper for pro- viding for the destitute poor. In Waterloo the average was only 75 cents per week, for the adults, while in Middlesex, under the old system, it had cost $4,679 70 to maintain 50 poor people ; under the new it only cost $2.340, thus savmg $2.339 70.
