Hon. +. GARTER.-Judge Garter left for

This term of the District Court has been an

of business which had accumulated by mo.

court cleared the calendar this time, dispos-
ing of all the cases on it. The more we see

makes the attorneys toe the mark, show him
to be the right man in the right place

AN EFFECTUAL WORM MEDICINE.
BROWNS VERMIFUGE COMFITS.

Or Worm Lozenges. Much sickness undoubC-
eddy, with children and adults, attributed TO
other causes, ~ occasioned by worms The
"VermifGge ComAts," although eaectual in de-
stroying worms, can do no possible injury to the
most delicate child. This valuable combination
has been successfully used by physicians, and
found to be safe and sure in eradicating worms,
so hurtful TO children.
CHILDREN HAVING WORMS require i'm
mediate attention, as neglect of the trouble
often causes prolonged sickness.
SYMPTOMS OF WORMS IN CHILDREN
are often overlooked. Worms in the stomach
and bowels cause irritation, which can be re-
moved only by the use of a sure remedy. The
combination of ingredients used in making
Browns "Vermifuge Commits" is such as to give
the best possible effect with safety.

HALIFAX, DcpG. 4O'
The steamship China, Capt. Hockey,
from Liverpool Sept. LIST at noon, and
Queenstown I'd, arrived here this morn
ing with 45 Halifax and 1T Boston pas
sengers. The threatened Fenian invasion
Of Canada and the active military pcepa-
ratiOns TO meet it are prominent topics.
The dispatch of three regiments to Can
ada is fully confirmed.
The steamers Lamara and Brontes
would proceed to Queenstown in very
few days and embark the 53t and 6lst
regiments Of infantry for Quebec. The
13th husSars are also reported As under
orders for Canada, and the Morning Post
thinks it possible that still another cav
airy regiment will proceed to Canada as
rapidly as possible.
The Daily Telegraph says Canada is
on the brink Of another and much more
serious invasion.
The Times remarks: Nobody sup
poses the Fenians are going to conquer
Canada, but the contemplated move
ment is throwing some heavy expenses
on the colony and making some demands
on the government here"
The Army & Navy Gazette says that
two gunboats were lately added to the
list of the Royal navy on Canada waters,
and are manned by officers and men from
the ship Aurora.
