As already announced, the Directors of the Highland Railway have resolved to double the line between Stanley and A vie mo re. The distance between Stanley and Aviemore is 76 miles, so that ft will be a big job. The estates through which the railway passes are as follows Countess of fccaneld, Kjurara, Sir George Macpherson Grant, The Mackintosh, Belville, Glentruiio, Dalwhinnie, AtholL Lude, Urrard, Faskally, Murthlv, and the Earl of Mansfield's land near Stanley. There may be some portion of other estates, but these are the principal, and the Duke of Atholl bas the largest mileage. For the greater part of the way the works will be of a comparatively easy character, but considerable difficulties will be encountered at Killiecrankie and Inver, where new tunnels will have to be pierced.

The bridge over the Tay at Dalguise will have to be widened, and there are pretty heavy rock cuttings at Kincraig, Struan Bank, between Killiecrankie and Pitlochry, and south of Iunkeld. It is hoped that the tunnel between ilurtbly and Dunkeld will be avoided altogether oy a diversion of the line in an open cutting a little to the west. The resolution of the Board has been hailed with satisfaction in Inverness. The new railway between Inverness and Aviemore, by which the journey to the South will be shortened by 26 miles and the junction at Forres avoided, is being pushed on vigorously, and it is expected to be finished early the summer of 1897. Already a large staff of surveyors are at work.

GREAT NORTH IMPROVEMENTS. Operations were commenced on Tuesday with 4he doubling of the main line of the Great North of Scotland Railway between Insch and Gartly. At present the track is double from Aberdeen nly as far as Insch, a distance of twenty-seven miles, and the additional line will extend about eight miles further. The Company fortunately bave land, which was secured under their original Act, for completing the doubling of the line all the way to Keith, and the present instalment will greatly facilitate the workmg of the trains and relieve the enormously increased traffic over their mainline. In the meantime the line is single beyond Insch to Keith.

There are no engineering difficulties to be encountered, and the extension will be accomplished very easily by the Company's own workmen. Theonly station affected will probably be ardhouse, where it will be necessary to provide an additional platform for down trains. The Com 2 0-3 0 ALUS Comparison Invited.

Wednesday Before Bailie Perrie. A Loiters' Tiff in Lochee. William Lister, mill-worker, Albert Street Lochee, was charged with having assaulted Agnes M'Cormack, millworker, by kicking her on the face and otherwise abusing her in Flight's Lane, Lochee, on Saturday night. He denied the charge. From the evidence, it appeared that Agnes and the accused had kept company as sweethearts for a considerable time.

About midnight on Saturday they encountered each other at the comer of Flight's Lane, when they fell into an altercation. William had not been conducting himself to Agnes's satisfaction, and she had told him so. The young lover resented the lady's interference, and, to manifest his displeasure, he seized her by the hair of the head, pulled her to the ground, and kicked her on the left eye. There was a previous conviction for assault against William, which had been followed by a sentence of fourteen days' imprisonment. The Bailie found him guilty of the present charge, and sentenced him to twenty days' imprisonment A Mother Charged with Assaulting Her Child.

Alice Rooney, pedlar, Haw kh ill, was remitted to the Sheriff charged with having assaulted Mary Rooney, six years of age, her child, by striking her with her fist while in a public-bouse in North Lindsay Street and also in Willison Street on Tuesday. The charge was aggravated by previous convictions. Alleged Theft of a Watch. Henry Fay, general dealer, was remitted to the Sheriff charged with having stolen a silver Geneva watch from a house in Barrack Street on Tuesday. Alleged Assault Serious Charge Against a Lochee Tailor.

Henry Ogden, tailor, Liff Road, Lochee, was charged with having assaulted his wife and his son and daughter by beating and kicking them in his house in Lochee on Tuesday, and, further, with having committed a breach of the peace at the same time and place by cursing and swearing at his wife and family, and brandishing an open knife and threatening to stab them. The accused was remitted to the Sheriff. AKDCHATTAN SCHOOL BOARD RESIGNS. The dispnte between the Ardchattan School Board and the Scotch Education Department regarding the recognition by the Department of an Episcopol School at Ardchattan has been renewed by an intimation from the Department that the grants to the Episcopal School, which have been suspended for seme time, are now to be allowed, and at a meeting held on Monday at Connel Ferry, the Board decided to resign in a body again, as a protest against the action of the Department. The Board find, that according to a religious census recently furnished to the Department by the managers of the Episcopal School, there is, besides the teacher's family, only one Episcoplian family in the district.

In the opinion of the Board the school is required for no purpose but that of presby rising, and the giving of Government grants for such a purpose is as contrary to the Education Acts as it is repugnant to the feelings of the whole body of the parish ratepayers. In these circumstances the members are constrained to resign office, and refuse nominations as members of a School Board for the parish so long as the illegality complained of is continued. Dress. AN ADJUNCT OF THE TEA TABLE is the TEA COSY. Many Ladies find pleasure in exerting themselves to make the Cosy a Thing of Beauty.

However much the care and work expended, it cannot please the eye unless the Design to start with has Symmetry and Grace. I have thought of those, Ladies, and had manufactured 50 Dozens FELT COSIES of Substantial Size for Making-Up Purposes traced Both Sides in Striking Designs of Natural Floral Form. I have also thought of the Price. Half-a-Crown as they used to be, is prohibitive. My Price is SEVENPENCE HALFPENNY, SEVENPENCE HALFPENNY.

Sheriff Ivory has issued another interlocutor in geference to the petition bv Inverness Town Council for confirmation of the market byelaws.

Uheriff Ivory says that, instead of meeting his suggestions in the same spirit in which they were made, the petitioners seemed to have looked on them with a jealous eye, and to have resolved to resist any alterations whatever on their byelaws Suggested by the Sheriff. It was a pity that the getitioners did not intimate this resolution to the heriff at an earlier stage of the process, as it would have satisfied him of the utility of suggesting to the petitioners any improvements on those byelaws, or of adopting any other course than that of disallowing them and it would have caved the petitioners and the Town Clerk the discredit of the dilatory and improper tactics they adopted in order to prevent any alteration whatever being made on their byelaws. Now, however, that this resolution on the part of the petitioners had been made manifest by their persistent neglect to consider the Sheriffs suggestions, and their wilful failure to implement the sheriff orders contained in his interlocutors of 18th June and 27th July last, the Sheriff has no alternative but to disallow the petitioners' byelaws, and to refuse the prayer of the petition. In the course of his observations, the Sheriff also lints out that he compared the petitioners' bye-ws with those for Aberdeen, which he describes as excellent, and also the byelaws for Dundee and father towns. EJECTION FROM A ROSS-SHIRE ESTATE.

Sheriff Johnston has just issued his decision in an apijeal to him against an interlocutor by Sheriff-Substitute Hill granting warrant for the Bummary ejection of Mr James C. Macgregor, Fearn, from the estate of Tarlogie, and the Sheriff has now affirmed the interlocutor of Sheriff Hill. The action is brought at the instance of Mr James jNeiU, Gourdie, Lochee, heritable proprietor of the binds of Tarlogie, near Tain, against Mr James G. Macgregor, and the record sets forth that by minute of agreement dated 7th and 13th September, 1894, the pursuer agreed to sell, and the defender agreed to buy, the estate of Tarlogie at the price of 27,500, less the capitalised value of the rent charges affecting the estate. With the view of carry ing out the purchase, de-Sender's agents prepared a disposition, which was duly revised and returned for engrossment about 6th November, 1894 but it had never been executed.

About the 12th November, 1894, the defender took possession of the home farm of Tarlogie, which was then in pursuer's occupation, and cm the understanding that he was to pay the price pursuer did not take steps to eject him, but he Laving up to the present failed to do so the present action was raised. In a note to his interlocutor the Sheriff says "The attitude of the appellant (defender) resolves itself into one of mere obstruction, which, it appears to me, can be of no benefit to him, and may work serious injustice to the respondent." BANFFSHIRE LIBERAL ASSOCIA-TION. The annual meeting of the association was held at Keith on Tuesday afternoon. There was a large representation of members from the various tranches in the county. In the absence of the resident of the association (Mr James George), Ir Stuart, Inverfiddoch, was called to preside.

The secretary submitted the treasurer's statement, which showed that the association was in a very aatisfactory condition. The chairman then stated that it would be remembered that their president, Mr George, accepted the position last year on the understanding that the honour would go round. This being so, he had much pleasure in proposing Dr Simpson, Buckie, as their president. This was Unanimously agreed to. The other office-bearers were mostly all re-elected.

The secretary read a letter from Sir William Wedderbum thanking the association for the good work they had done for tht Liberal cause. AN INTERESTING OGTOGENARIAN CROFTER. Mr and Mrs Hugh Macleod, who occupy an Isolated croft near the summit of Ardgay Hill, in Kincardine parish, Ross-shire, are aged eighty and seventy-seven years respectively. Although neither their silver wedding nor their golden wedding had been formally celebrated, they had been together as man and wife for the long period of fifty-six years, yet they are both as brisk and lively as ordinary people of between fifty and aixty, and still do all the work of the croft, the cultivated portion of which is a rectangular patch of about 4A acres, which have been reclaimed from moorland dv his own labour. It is now a model of neatness and thorough cultivation, and from its altitude Hugh can afford to look down on his neighbours.

The old couple had ten of a family, even daughters and three sons all of whom are alive, but scattered over the three kingdoms. The grandchildren number forty-four at least, and probably more; and five or six of these are married, and have families. NORTHERN LIGHTHOUSE COMMISSIONERS.

DEATH OF LORD LOTHIAN'S FACTOR. The death of Mr C. M. Patterson, for sixteen ears factor to the Marquis of Lothian, New-oattle Abbey, was announced on Tuesday. On the previous day Mr Patterson had bean driving about the policies as usual, and, it is thought, may have overworked himself, as he complained of pain towards the close of his inspection.

On leaving his carriage a sickness came over him, and on getting to his house he became unconscious, and expired shortly afterwards. The deceased gentleman, who came from Ireland some sixteen years ago, has been favourably known in the district, and has ever been looked upon with favour in his transactions with the tenantry and others on behalf of his Lordship. Mr Patterson was a native of Berwickshire, where he had a lengthened experience, as well as across the Channel, of fanning industry. For a year or two he had also interested himself in a farm that of Hardengreen which a son had desired to cultivate. NCTHERCATC rf SPECIAL QUOIV REAL SEAIK! J.
