While tliey thought no one knew it, —Voters with a propensity to gamble should remember that Attorney-General O'Brien declines that an elector who makes a hot must, under tho law, lose his vote if challenged for betting.

The following from a Canadian correspondent, may be interesting to many farmers in this vi-inity: " 1 have a good many apples, and have fed tho windfalls for fifteen j ears to my cows, against tho advice of neighbors, but I am convinced by so doing that not only many insects uro destroy- i ed but invariably my cows increase in milk. It will not do to feed too many when com- j men ing for they would bo injurious. Give j not more than a peck at lirst, and increase j to half a bushel. Your cows will relish j them, and when your apples are gone the} flow of millc will decrease." Chautauqua on Niagara. For some months past a few gentlemen have been quietly working to secure the control of the beautiful Oak Grove on tho banks of the Niagarn river, above Niagara, Ont., and near the famous old Fort George, as un assembly ground, to be alllliateil with the Chautauqua, N.

Alma, Esq., is having tho handsome residence, lately purchased by him from Mrs. Baxter, thoroughly overhauled aud repaired, and when finished it will be one of the handsomest residences in Western Canada. Pity wo have not mora men like Mr. Alma in our midst. Monday foreuoon last Clarrie Walsh, son of Mr. James Walsh, while out shooting on the farm of Mr. Jumes Osmond, near the Four-milo Crock, inet with a very painful accident. Ho wus getting into Mr. Osmond's wagon, and in some manner tho gun wont off, tho whole charge of shot passing through the fleshy part of the young man's thigh and through Mr. Osmond's coat. Mr. Osmond, with great presence of mind, at once set about bandaging the mutilated limb, to stop the flow of blood, and then brought tho sufferer to town as fast as his horses could be driven. Drs. Anderson and Watt were at once summoned and the wound properly dressed. The wound Is ,naid to bo a very ugly one, but not not necessarily dangerous. Editor Niagara County Neuts: I see tbo last edition of tie "Tattler" (a sheet of paper owned and edited by one Wm. D. Webster, Esq., and hung in his shop window, who is also the owner and prorpietor of a very large establishment in this town i. r. a " hole in tho wall" with one half dozen old clocks and about two dollars worth of old brass jewelry stuck in the window) is this week couiposof a conundrum, in which It goos on to say something about the Tiehborne claimant being released, and then asks which is tho worst tho aforesaid claimant or a man who got half a ton of bay and then swore he only got two hundred pounds; and thereby hangs a tale. It appears that when the books of Mr. 1". P. Itlain were handed to tho parties who collected the accounts they found an. old account that had been standing ou Mr. Blaiu's books for a number of years agaiust this same Webster.and which notbiug could be collected on while in .Mr. Blaiu's bands, j and upon presenting tho uccountto Webster they got so much abuse that tbo assignee do- [ cided to put the matter in court. Tbo pro- | prietor of this large establishment at once set j nbout trumping up an offset against it. At i the hearing in court the first thing tbis man Joes ufter putting up the aforesaid offset and knowing that it was a fraud himself, on the case being called, was to rise up in his seat and say that be claimed exemption [ From paying this debt under tho Statute of Limitation—that moans that according to aw after an account has stood a number of pears it is outlawed—but the Judge knowing j nim so well simply took no notice of him ; jut asked Mr. Blain, who was now a disin;erested party, the matter having passed en;irely out of his hands, If his account was correct and if the account credited to defenlont Webster, viz $5.80, was correct, and Mr. Blain stated (the Judge did not require to iwear him, his simple word would go furth)r than the oath of half a dozen such men as hVebstei)tbat his account was correct and bat be had rendered the accouot year sfter i ear aud could get nothing out of him, that ,be amount credited to him was for two juudred pounds of hay, one load of wood, j »nd in all $5.80. Upon Mr. Blain making ;bis statement, the Judge at once gave a perdict iu favor of tho plaintiff; and that is ;ho subject dealt with by the last edition mug iu his window, and tbis is the method his epitful old crank takes of venting his tpleen on every on • be may tako a dislike ;o, but I think he will got enough of it before ae is done yet, for if space and your good aaturo will allow, this old chap will be shown up in his true colors. It will bo shown »y the Sheriff's books when and where big ?oods and chattels were leiied and sold for | debt, aud how he got the double wagon from tho two orphan boys last winter, and which he has locked and chained *n his yard for fear the rightful owners would fit it. aud also how much be is prepared to pay on an account held against him bv a merchant in this town to the amount of fifty dollars with interest for some years, and which can be bought for ten cents on tho dollar. If anymore are needed tbero can be plenty proven to show this man up. 1 am, Dear Sir, Yours Very Truly, A CITIZEN. VIRGIL. Ont. The Virgil Football Club met for practice ! on Saturday afternoon. ISth inst. at 3 p. ra. The playing by some of its members was remarkably fine. The Hon. Captain belugubsent, Mr. Robert Cushuian took his placo aud carried th • game on with his usual skill. Mr. Hewsoti Moyer went to Camden, Ont., on Saturday to visit his parents, according to his account, but wo think there is stronger attraction than the parental love, as he visits his native village about once a week. The Virgil Football Club has received a challenge from tho St. Catharines Club. A dude farmer, residing ou the beautiful and picturesque bank of the Four-mile' rook, who bad been sitting in the house all Sunday morning, remarked, as ho went out in the afternoon, that bo was going out to exorcise the calves—tho calves of his legs. Mr. Griffiths, who had his hand badly hurt last weak, is improving. Ho will bo üblo to resume work in a day or two. Two gushing widows were before tho Virgil Police Court on Monday last, but settled their grievances before coining to trial.

Sickness prevented his speaking last Sabbath, and his people joined with the Baptist brethren and wore pleased with the remarks of Elder Davis. Bro. Stratton wilt have un appointment at the Coomer school house, and begin as soon as ho is better and settled. A very pleasing service was tho farewell of Bro. Pickard at this place, ut which time seventeen were taken into tho church in full, or a branch of tho church ut the village, i Nearly all were baptized, and the service j was very impressive. A few welo heads of families, but nearly all were young people. Our best wishes go with tho biother to his new field of labor. ! Our postmaster has boon confined to the house by a fall and a severe cold, for the past two weeks. Ho is now able to resunio | his duties and greet all with a smile.

After dinner all repaired to the sitting rooms aud here were given a biief and flying account of a visit to the old battle fields by Capt Rogers, who went with tho 28th to Virginia since our last meeting. The day was unpleasant, or there would have been a much larger attendance. The time was spent in telling stories of the war, and asking after absent ones. A letter was read from P. E. Atcblnson, regretting that ho could not be present and sending regards to bis old comrades. Thus the 19th reunion uud the 22ud Anniversary of our muster into the U.S. army was concluded, all pledging to coo o again next year, if spared.—W. A.

I.ewlston, Oct. 29th, IMH4. Hearing of School Children. The medical journals indorse, v ithout exception, tho suggestion mads by Jjr. Well, in the Archives of Otology, bawd on Ills examination of ears and hearing of nenr| ly <>,0(K) school children, namely, that in every case of inattention tlie child should | have its ears examined, so convinced is b'j ! of tho fact that children who are simply hard of hoaring are often misjudged and i considered inattentive. Indeed, such an i examination, he thinks, would be desirable once or twice a year for every child, the test being made in the school-room itself if thulu bono other room convenient; thut Is, tho 1 teacher could place the pupil in one owi ner | of the room, then retire to the other him self, and test each car separately by whisper ing—causing tho words an I sentences used to bo repeated by the pupil, and thus easily find out whi h of tbeiu aie hard of hearing This, it is belived, would have tho further advantage of calling tho attontion of 1 parents to the condition of their children, and inducing them to act accordingly, or, what would be still better, a surgeon should I have the health of tho schools in charge, li eluding the examination of every pup whom the teacher finds In ittentive.
