Young Sylvester. acting on the advice of a friend named Hihbgu-son, had a sum- Inons issued against Porter for assault. The latter case was tried by the justices iu the Council Chamber at the Court-house. Syl- vester made a statement to the effect that he had not been consulted as to Porter being appointed his guardian, though he knew that his father had entered into such an agree- ment.

Again, England supplies those Corduroy Suits that uevermear out, and remind old country people of their childâ€" hood, playing about the green lanes of their native village. GERMANY is away ahead in plaited and fancy suits, and though their goods are not quite as substantial as those of English or Canadian manufacture, they excel in esign and nobby styles.
