As it has not been in control of a sp exal orâ€" ganization this abode of the departed displays painful evidences of neglect and ruin, and the passerby would natâ€" urally suppose that time had entirely obliterated from the memory of the living the sad event when they laid to rost within ins sscred precinets the inâ€" animate body of a loved ons. These disinterments beg@an some time after the new cemetery was laid out and lots were secured by the friends or relatives of those buried in the old neglected graveyard. A few days ago the writer was an eyeâ€"witness to one of these disinterments. _ The remains were thet of a boy uged about six years, deposited there in 1874, a period of about twentyâ€"four years. The box or coffin was in such a decayed conâ€" dition that removal with its ghastly remains was found impossible, _ Noth ing remained of the body except the thigh bones, a fow ribs and the skull. The latter was in a fair state of preserâ€" vation, to which was still clinging a growth of auburn hair, I should jadge about six inches in lengtbh. The testh, excepting the defects incident to childâ€" hood, were in a perfect state of preserâ€" vationo. The interior of the skull stili contained traces of the brain, which had become a dry, spongy mass, but detached from the wails of the former. The supposition that the hair had grown after death must not be taken as mere imagination, as the like has already been proven beyond all doubt. Itb has not been many years sago that the writer wibtnessed the exhuming of the body of a man six months after burial. The bhair and whiskers had grown _ several _ inches, deâ€" spite the fact that the hair had been closely cut just a short time previous to death and the face smoothly shaved after life had become extinct. Madical science has also demonstrated that as long as the body contains moisture the hair will grow, Remains DisintErrEp.â€"On Fridey last the remasins of EAward Menges, son of Mr. and Mrs. Coorad Menges, who was buried in the old cemetery at the east end of the villsge in 1874, were disinterred and removel t> ‘the family plot in the new cemetery where another son of Mr. and Mre. Menges lies buried. A friend who witnessed the disinterment handed the following report to your correspondent, which we give in his own words ; Several members of Daniel Gingâ€" rich‘s family are down with scarlet fever.

Our Pusure Lisrary â€"As the evenings are becoming longer again the time is approaching when the psople will be looking to the Public Library to provide some of the material to pass their time,in the shape of the latest publications in the literary field. Now we wish to speask a few words to the psople on this subjact. We have a splendid library, coataining considerably over 2,000 volumes and also a good reading room where some of the best papers and periodicals pubâ€" lished arrive and which is opsn every evening. We understand the board would I:ke to buy books now so as to geb them in time for the readers to peruse during the winter months, but owing to the i tate the treasury is in at present, they are nct able to do so. If all who should would come forward and help this could soon be remedied. The fee for membership for a year‘s use of the library and reading room is only fifty cents. Surely that is cheap enough for the lob of reading matter that you get. Everybody put your nsme down at once and throw in your mite to keep the library on its feet. 40tr.

Such indications in localities within threeâ€"quarters of a mile of each other should arcuse an inclination on the part of the cit‘zâ€"ns to ascertamin the extent of this metal deposibt that might prove to be & bonarz« and in the course of time create Baden the Manâ€" chester of Ontario. Oa this farm there are unmistakable evidenc:s of rich deposits of iron.

In the not far distant foâ€" ture a great iron industry may find development in this very locality.
