ALEXANDRA NOTES.
ALEXANDRA, Juno 2. The weather is keenly frosty and verr cold at nights. A pruning competition was held in Bringan’s orchard last Saturday, and brought out some j-oung men, who did good work. This was held under the auspices of the Horticultural Society, and is a good innovation.Dr Barr was accorded a farewell hist night at a sochal over which the Roy. Mr Blue presided. Very flattering compliments were deservedly paid by several speakers, the prominent note in all the speeches being that the doctor’s charm lay in his natural unaffeotednoss. r lhe doctor _ had absolutely no time for class distinctions, whilst his broad Scottish dialect immediately won the heart of every son of the heather. Dr Gladstone is his successor.
