Mr. Donnelly moved into the township of Glenelg about twenty years ago, and has since made many warm friends has filled the office of coun- cillor with acceptance, and also other positions of trust. He has long been a coii- siatant and worthy member of the Presby- terian church and elder of the same. He leaves a wife and two children who, with a wide circle of friends, mourn their loss.

It will be good news for farmers, perhaps, but bad news for people who have to buy their provisions, to know that pork is still on the rise that the article is still very scarce on the Wes- tern markets and that for the first time in the history of perk packing the mammoth concerns at the Chicago stock-yard of Fowler Bros, and Atkin- son and (3o., packing provision compa- nies, are shut down through the scar- city of hogs. Ov«r 2,600 men are out of employment in consequence. The cause is attributed to the high price of corn for the past few months, farmers selling grain instead of feeding it to their stock. There is not more than halfacropof corn this year in the West, and this will lend to still fur- ther increase the price of pork while the scarcity of pork will cause a great demaLd for beef, which will be scarce for the same reason.

Deab Sir, â€" For the last few months I have noticed some very slanderous remarks by the Flesher^on Advance on our Council, and especially on our hi/hly esteemed Clerk, Mr. Milne. I thought to have let the matter pass without interfering, but suchEdouderous reitoTations I can bear no longer. The cause of the dispute, it may be weU to notice, is because the Advance did not get the Township printing. I understand from one of the councillors that the Advance puts in a tender, stating he will do the general printing for the Township for a certain sum. Another printer puts iu a tender stating what he wiU do and at what prices. I would like to think as some do, that it was ignor- ance of the A-dvance that caused him to put in his tender in this way, but he is so quick in calling others crafty and wily that I cannot but thiuk he intended to have quite a nice bill of extras when the account would be sent in, and because our Council was too sharp to be duped by him, hence the abuse he has been hurling at them since. Because the Clerk happens to be a Qrit he comes heaviest on him, doubtless thinking the Conserratives of Osprey would be pleased to see a Grit slandered. But. Mr. Editor, I am proud of the Conservatives of Osprey, as they speak of it with supreme contempt. The unfounded statement made by the Ad- vance that Mr. Milne had the promise of 15 per cent, discount on the Township printing I am hapny to say is received as utterly un- trfie, and many I have heard speak say the Advance must have intended to make it a matter of consideration to some of the Coun- cil or he would not have thought of charging Mr. Milne vith any such thing. The old adage may be very well applied in this case, •• evil to him that evil thints." The editor of the Flesherton paper seems to consider it a crime to be a Grit (of the hrst. water) as he puts it. Does he think the people of Osprey did not know whit Mr Milne was before he was placed in office, and that by a Conserva- tive council Did not one of the councillors lose.hi.« seat in the Council for one year be- cause he voted against Mr. Milne as Clerk? I say such is the ease. I would also say. the people of Osproy have known Mr. Milne longer than they have known the editor of the Adranc* (or ever wish to know him, from what I hear), and they have found him a gentleman in every particular, and as for his honesty aud integrity, I venture tc say not one in the Township doubts it after all tbe Advance has eaid. The people ot Osprey know full well it the Council gave the con- tract to a higher tender than the Flesherton paper they had good reason for it, especially if the Clerk had anything to say in the matter. I will now conclude, hopiiig the Advance will perceive that his letters so far from changing the confidence of the pet^le in the Clerk is only strengthening it and lowering the editor of the Advance. I am sorry I cannot consider the editor of the above paper a brother Conservative of the first water, nor of anything but dirty water. Veritas. A doctor will sit down and write a pre- scription time, five minutes paper and ink. cent, and the patient pays 91, $2, %5, |10 as the case may be. A lawyer writes ten or twelve lines of advice, and gets from 910 to $20 from his chent. An editor writes a column puff for a man, pays a man from 50 cents to SI for putting it in typ3, prints it on several dollars* worth of paper sends it to a thousand people, and then surprises the puffed man if he makes any charge.
