stacks blown off, much of the corn
standing in the shock was Frustrated
to the ground, and, in short, a confu.
sion Of things in general seemed to be
the order of the day. Farm work was
nearly suspended, though a great deal
OF extra work was caussd as the re-
pairing Of damages and the restoring
of things to order. On Sunday morn
ing the wind had greatly subsidized, but
the weather continued cold, sunshine
and snow squalls alternating during
the day, which forcibly reminded one
that it was truly the first iustallment
OF winter very early in the season.
Monday morning the ground was white
with snow.

The entertainment on Saturday even
ing given by the young folks was pro-
nounced first-class for the coat7otyy,
and the attendance was fair, consider
ing the unfaVorableness of the wealth
er. The acting of Lady Audley's Sc
cret, and the music of the evening es-
pecially, elected no small praise. Will
sons band was out in full force, with
the exception of Prof. Toase, who was
detained at home by the serious illness
of his mother. In a word, the enter
tainment in all its details is of high
order, and deserves large patronage,

persuaded to repeat it on next Saturday

sides brilliant feature or two will
be added to the programme. Admis-
sion 25 cents.
