Every one started at the sound; it almost seemsd «8 if tho dead had called—she was so still and unlifelike, and the voice sounded so strangely. Ina moment he whom she calls ed was on his knees beside her, the tears subdued. and every sense strained eagerly to listen.

‘Kate has made me a promise—a solemn promise—involving life. LTentreat you, by your love to me, never, under any circum- stancs, to allow her to be tempted or frights ened to break it. Is ismy last dying prayer, and you will grant it for my sake, father, will you not?’

«J will—I will; but is there nothing else— no other wish I can do for you, Mary? asked the heart-broken man imploringlyly.

‘Nothing. Iam happy now.’ And the glazed eyes from which the intensity of her emotion seemed to have cleared away the film, now darkened and closed again. The last frightful gurgling came on, and she struggled for breath. Kate sprang to ber fect.

A moment more, and every s nse was closed. The surgecn came quickly forward, and geutly passing Katharine, took the body from her ars.s, and laid it down.

As it nad been during Mary's life, so it was after her death. All the active doties which follow sach afflictions devolved upon Kathas rine; for, like most selfish, undisciplined peopl>, Mr. and Mrs. Grove were wholly un- able toexert themselves.

States, to theirrulers. Occasionally, it is

| sembled to show him how they loved and At a grand pow-wow in the village of Osweakea, his Excellency was addressed by the Chief General of the ‘‘ Six Nation the following strain :—

The Six Nations had conlidence in all the treaties they had with the Euglish Govern- ment, none of which had ever been violated. They welcomed Lord Dufferin as the only nobleman who had ever visited their reserve, and they also welcomed the Countess of Dut- ferin. They hoped that His Excellency would continue for many years to represent her Majesty in their native country, Canada, and that the Almighty would bless their Ex- cellencies and their family. The speaker informed the Governor-General that there was a great change for the better in the con- dition of the Six Nations, that they lived like their white fellow subjects, by tilling the grovfid and by other industry, and not by hunting and fishing, as some, he regretted to say, had asserted of them. In education great progress had been made. The Govern- ment had been pleased to appoint a gentle- man to the charge of the Six Nation Indians, and that gentleman was ready to promole their interests and to protect and defend them. They were quite contented with the government under which they lived, The In- dian Timber and other property had lately been much better protected than formerly

The noble Earl exhibited his usual cood tact in replying to this address. He said his visit was a sign of the genuine in- terest taken by the Great Mother in the Indians, and also of the care which the Canadian Government took for them. He expressed his knowledge of the claims which the Indians had upon the British Government for their loyal adherence to England in the early wars :—

I am well aware thatin ancient times when there was war between the early French col- onizers of Canada and the early English col- onists of the lower States, you were always a friendly people to the English Crown, and that in later days, when differences arose be- tween the ancestors of the present inhabit- ants of the United States—differences which I am glad to say have long since been buried in oblivion by both parties—it was on the

Hens should have a a open box full of it under cover, where they may dust themselves at their pleasure. It is an excellent thing to have in the stable,and when saturated with urine makes a valuable fertilizer. The fineness of the dust, continually ground by the iron tires and horse-shoes, is one cause of its favor-~ able action upon crops. That gathered from « clay soil is best — indeed sand, whether from the road or elsewhere, is of but little use as a deodorizer or absorbent.

A vaLvar.e Linment.--The following re- ceipt was recently given to us by a gentle- man who “handles’’ horses, and who is well versed ia the ills to which the horse flesh isan heir: Procure one ounce each of worm-~ wood (the herb) and arnica flowers, and one ounce of salt petre, and put them im a wide mouthed bottle, adding to them one pint of rum. Keep the bottle corked and use it in case of cuts, bruises, of any injury whatever to the flesh of horses. It sllays pain and inflamation and heals the surface. It is a most valuable liniment for use in the stable and should always be kept on hand by those hasing horses.— Maine Farimer.

A WARNING TO FARMERS AND OTHERS, [From the Monetary Tines.]

Presvipetiovs.—A mutual fire insurance company, with its head office in St. Cathe- rines, Unt., which can boast of only small assets—and those mostly in the shape of premium notes—has appointed agencies and is transacting business in the Maritime Provinces. This action of the Clinton Coms pany is open to two objections:—Ist. Itis equivalent to gambling ; 2nd, it is illegal. Small mutual offices such as this do very well about home, where every one who ins sures has some knowledge of its financial responsibility, and where the Directors have the risk under their control. To go abroad, as this company is doing, and enter the field as a competitor with offices having large capitals and means, is venturing to far from shore for s0 smaila craft and must result in shipwreck sooner or later. Such is the teaching of our observation and experience. But, be this as it may, it is simply audacious for a Company to set the law at defiance as this Company is do- ing. It has no right to issue a policy in the Maritime Provinces without having made the required deposit with the Mini+ ster of Finance. We hope that some one, out of respect for the law and for the Coms panys good, will take the necessary steps to
