The fine weather OF the past few

Tuesday afternoon while the sun was
yet at its height. we noticed young

The fve-year-olG son of family
Ihe'Other day stood watching his baby
brother. who was making great noise

of trouble, hut you don't know any thing
about it, Wait till you're big enough

An inch space in the newspaper
is worth miles of advertising on a
board fence. 1t is correct for the
farmers these cold days to gather
around the warm fires and read every
thing in newspaper, and if there
were signs as large as BARN door
right in the middle of the road which
they Travelled home, they would go
around them and never give them
parting glance.
Tho register OF deeds in Port
Huron is not satisfied with his new
Office. Die Volkzeltupg: Well. no,
not exactly, at least we should say
there is just slight dissatisfaction
with the little cubby hole provided by
the county. Some dampnesS has been

removed in the course of twelve or
eighteen months, and will only warp

This town is becoming notorious
of late for the numerous fights and
drunken brawls which almost daily
occur upon our streets, and we are in
hopes that the day is not far distant
whea there Will DO some remedy for
this disgraceful business. On Monday
evening last there was one OF these
rows occurred i'll the vicinity of the
postoflice, when one John Hardy and
another Sam Morgan tried to pommel
the life out OF each other and make
sensation for the town. On Tuesday
another Of these fisticuffs occurred, in
which Thos. Schram and Ambrose
Reid figured as the principles. and
tried to send each other TO his last
resting place. Now there is but one
thing which will put stop TO this
business, and that is to have cooler
for such ruflians, and give them the
benefit OF sleeping on the soft side of n
plank every time they make such dis
and enforce them TO pay a
heavy penalty or 60 over the road foi
the peace.
