EDINBURa NOTES.

Johnnie Mcdonald has been home on Q
visit OF couple weeks but on last Mon

regrets OF his many friends. Especially

beautiful faces of the fair daughters OF

indisposed. Hope he will soon recuperate.
Then we'll scold him into becoming a
subscriber. We thought We had succeed

evenings ago, we'll give it to you. generous

wears for cold blood murder.
3rd. When a man was tried for seduc-
ton, under promise Of marriage, and
sentenced to only two years. This was
not particularly claimed as too short or
too long, but the injustice claimed was
the suppression Of evidence to the further
charges against the culprit. Here, how
ever, comes the earnest enquiry, "wby has

it his money that keeps him here upon the

Lastly, we found cur good, one legged

son court, with the expressed opinion
that, "it is a shame that we cannot even
have justice meted to us in our own
township court" Well this, too, may be
owing to the bulldozing Of the counsel, as
on the next day he fai ed to pat in an ap-
pearance, when Justice GrAbill was called
on to preside and who made very short
work in doing the right thing.
