STOCK COMPLETE -IN- Waltcrs Falls. From our own correspondent. Deab SSib, â€" Nothing very interest: ing has transpired here since I wrote you last, except tlie death of Mr. Philip Walters, which, although not sudden, was unexpected, and gave a shock to every one in ihis vicinity. The deceased gentleman may be said to have been the most influential per- son in this part of the country, and by his upright and honorable conduct and genial manners was both beloved and respected by all who bad the good fortune to be acquainted with him. His death has been a great trial to his family, who, however, are comforted by the assurance, that Hheir loss is his gain. There have been no arrivals or de- partures of any consequence of late. Mr. Bichard Olmstead and Mr. Anson Smith started ou a bunting ex- pedition lately. They went to Muskoka and had considerable success. They shot two deer, but one got away, and they brought the other home. Mrs. D. Brown has returned from a four weeks visit to friends and rela- tions at Emsdale, Muskoka. Our citizens appear to be settling down and preparing for the inevitable winter. All are in good spirits, and seem to think that life is worth living. Like tiie historian Miguet, Mr. Sam Caswell is proud and thankful that he has been brought into existence, and of having arrived at consciousness and Mr. Bush, blacksmith, agrees perfectly witli Mr. Ernest Renan, that it is something to have lived, and to have emerged, even for a short space, from the infinitude. As was anticipated, the new roller flour mill here, under the able man- agement of Mr. Freeman, has proved a sltccese. and is assuming proportions which warrant us in the belief that it will be one of the mam branches of industry for the furtherance of the prosperity of this place. Mr. Caasar, butcher, is coming to settle here permanently on the first of next month, which shows the great advance this place is making, as a few years ago, if any one had said that we wanted a butcher to ourselves, that pel son would have been immediately examined by two medical men (we have two here now), very likely have been pronounced insane, and be at present lauguishing in the asylum. The wintry wind extends his blast. To-night( 27th) there is sleighing here; and the signs of an open winter are gone again. An Extraordtearsr Operation. A mah able to talk afteb having taff TONGUE CUTOFF. A few days ago Dr. McFarland per- formed an unusual operation on H. C Ward, an old Crime»n veteran, of Center street, having removed a cancer from his tongue at the General hospital. At the time the operation was so successfully performed there were some two hundred students a%d a number of doctors in attendance, and it was generally boUeved that the old man would lose his power of speech and sense of taste. Yesterday, how- ever, Mr. Ward's son received a note-^ from his father which stated that he would lose neither his speech nor his sense of taste, as he could already articulate quite plainly and tlie doctors assured him that he would soon be able to wag his tongue, or what remains of it, with as good effect as before he brought on the cancer by smoking a pipe with a broken and jagged edged stem. In the letter to the son he says be will be able to leave the hoopital in' about two weeks, and he con- cluded â€" "The doctoro says I will be able to talk as well aH ever, and I know I haye not lost my sense of taste. There were about two hundred studentt* present while the operation was going on, and when I came to my senses they gave me a hearty cheer. The operation was an extraordinary one and has been reported ou both sides of the Atlantic. â€" News. EASILY CAUGHT. Honor Roll of S. S.

P. Urquhart. to which he pleaded guilty, but as there were twenty-four other charges of larceny against him he was further remanded. On Monday he was again brought up, when the other twenty- four claimants ot stolen property were in attendance. The prisoner pleaded not guilty to all the several charges. The Chief had all the goods assorted and laid out in due order all round the coujt room so that he could lay his hand on each parcel as it was claimed. The Police Magistrate went through with the evidence in each case patiently which was somewhat monotonous, and.' was about after this wise The Chief, swore to finding the goods in the house of the prisoner, who said most of thena were taken there by a colored man named Johnson. Johnson denied knowing anything about them, and the owners severally identified their goods. The contradictory statement in reference to Johnson and other circumstances showed that Johnson had no complicity with him. Johnson who had been arrested for receiving stolen goods on information given to the Chief by Leighton, was discharged from custody ou application of his counsel, Samuel Piatt, Esq. The. prisoner Leighton was convicted oa all the twenty five charges and. sen- tenced to seven years in the Provincial Penitentiary at Kingston in each case,, all to run concurrently. The Police. Magistrate ordered restitution of the stolen property to the several owners. The prisouer was sentenced at 12:80 ou Monday, and at 3 p. m. the same day was on his waj to Kingston. â€" 0. S.
