Birmingham Notes.
(from our own correspondent.) Mr Jacob Shapleski lost a valuable draught horse in a singular manner receutly. When he was putting a cover on the horse he found the crupper gone, and he at once used a piece of rope and turned the horse out. In time the rope cut so severely as to nearly take the tail off tbe poor animal, which died of lock jaw. Yesterday we had a Temperance Demonstration here. The ehurcb was decorated with evergreens for the occasion. About 80 Good Templars came in from Apiti. In the evening the Rev* T. R. Richards preached an appropriate sermon.
