AT the last meeting of the direc tors of the Ejights Building Asso ciation, a quarterly dividend of 3£ per cent was declared.

SUNDAY a strong east wind, verging towards tbe north, in con junction with the full moon, indi cated a chance for frost, but as there was uone, we can now pre dict that ali danger is over and tender plants, and the fruit left from the last freeze will be safe. THE health of the Factory opera tives may be judged of by the tact that out of a population of about 300, many of them children, there has been but one death during the year. The sickness has generally been of mild diseases such as are incident to every community. The action of some unknown parties in dropping poisoned food in open places to kill stray dogs is atill agitating our citizens who own valuable dogs, and they speak of organizing a club for the purpose Ot detecting tbe perpetrators and testing the legality of tbe act, at (he first opportunity.

The mnsical club has taken great inter est and care in the selection and arrangement ot the music, and as appears from the programme, has succeeded in preparing one which will please all tastes.

We wish them success and a joyful time. — One of our farmers are going to plant as mm b as fifteen acres in tobacco this year. We hope he may come oat successfully.
