The merchants of Clinton, whose biisi- ness judgmentcannot bo called• in ques- tion, have made: ungtiestionably greater preparations for the `-coming fall trade than in any previous season. It needs but .i visit to the several'''ell-stocked stores to be convinced that their•propri'e--- ". ." and we r at antiei tors have g sulcus e p , ` d to think that these anticipa- tionsare dispose i? tions will be fully realized. During°late years Clinton\has been steadily-Climbing- upwards, limbing"u wards until now it justly claims to. stand at the head ot the list so far a5;this section of country is concerned. As a grain marksticere is no better;' -if or Ldon,and although as good, north of o � , the railways are amalgamated, it, will not have much effect on the market; for some time to come any rate,because we still have theadvantages of easy\shipmentto' all points, which is a feature of material benefit to shippers. It: may, therefore, be laid down as an invariable rule that Clin- ton buyers pay the, highest prices the mar- ket ,will allow, and this. is a fact the term- ing community will not be slowto recog- nize and act upon. We c an recommend the businessmen of " h. the Clinton, no matter in what branch y may be engaged, as being worthy of confi- dence. We know their stocks of goods to' be second to none in Ontario. We believe their prices to be as low as the lowest, and we have no' hesitation in saying to our farming r friends that if they have anything to sell or require to buy anything, they will be consulting, their own interests': b Y. transacting their business in the flourish- ing and liyely town of Clinton. ILE FORM CONVENTION. A Reform Convention for the East -Riding of Huron will be held at the townball, Brussels, on Tuesday,.. the .19th of September, for. the purpose ne pose orselectin-a candidates' to contest the constituency in -the Reform interest `at the_nex t_election_for_the-Loca1-Legislature.— l'I[F.IGIIT, RATES TO THE ' "ORTH.- tYI; The; Farmer's •Advocate publishes . 'Mr.. Glen's and anothcr,letter.over thesignature of Manufeturer in relation to the exorbitant freight rates char con he P anl ,iVlinne- apolis and Manitoba hails:ay; aud'also ou.the CanadaPacific,' and after ivio n e g mg some expla- n n• sumo s as -to bow and b_y_yehom thiy'.is done, the Advodate assumes a defiant arid. a would- be farmet'a champion attitude, and delivers itself of the following -`series of •'questions, iandershin thunder,' says "=But are our farmersin the•North-\V:estto of bear this serfdom ? Is not -this monopoly in restrain 'of trade ? .the principal '.Which our oommon law says is illegal: Are our mann• lecturers going to sit idle and see our 'West- ern Heritage' made' `a happy hunting ground" for St. Paul and: Chicago manufacturers ? i As it is, even now foreign implements aro every- where crowding out our.wares. , Are 'We loyal• to our country to submit to. excessive railway taxation at the expensd 'of honest labor, to enrich a few monopolists; and to increase the trade of a foreign. country ? Our farmers' in the..North-West arc being actually ground, down and are, paying taxes, as ,we are, to build a road for the' owners, .who' shall have a monopoly and levy such rates as they choose, ` Every additional tax, or expense, farmers'ar9 Subject to decreases the value of 'rtbeir labor and its product. Do we not, incleeil; need a "Farmer's Alliance"' to remove :sucli and many other abuses'?!' The Advocate was and still ren anis a sup- • porter of that party that created the monopoly, above denounced, and instead of'acknowledg ing the error and wrong committed, • wants to , perpetrate another by desiring the creation of another class interest. The creation of 'the Canada Pacific Railway monopoly was a,nion- strops wrong, and it injuriously affects the whole community, and therefore all should unite, without the combination of class in. torests, to destroy it. If the Advocate is sin- cere in its desire to bavo justice done to' the farmers of the northwest,;it has nothing more todo than _give its support,to Mr.. Blake and ▪ his following, who havo'always' labored to that end. . It is not a good sign, when an evil tbpogo vern.tnmit ofthe country is dis• covered and pointed out, one that: more Far, tieularly affects a certain class Or interest; that.a combination or ring is 'sought to be established for ..the purpose of counteracting that particular wrong ; it creates opposition just because it'seeks the rectification of the wrong, not from a general, principle of right,: but from pure selfishness, which would result in the creation of stronger close feelings. . At Montreal, on.. Sunday, a„Minister de-, trounced in the strongest terms the thieving transactions of the notary Hunter, who had been an officer of the church. This is Wight. There is (00 often a tendency;to shield wrong- doers simply because they are professedly members in good standing' of some church, and if hopes of inaking the world better .are entertained, ministers should" fearlessly cls. nonnon ell manner and species of Cvrong-doing,, whether private rivate individuals or men hold= "ing public posiitiona." THE 'EGYPTIAN YAR. The Egyptian war appears to be dragg- ing itself very slowly along, nothing of moment having taking' place during the paste week; but that .is n'6t to be won dered at '.when we take the circumstances into' account; soldiers having only just arrived there, and the heat is intense, with OUR LETTER BOX. The :NEW ERA doey'not hold, itself responsible for the opinions of its correspondents.

THAT LACROSSE MATCH. great difficulty of moving forward niilitary stores. MOrei troops are being'sentfrom England, and permission has been given. to Turkey tb land 5,000 -troops to act in, .conjunction with England. There is every appearance that the struggle will soon be over, as•'Arahi''s resources: will soon be exhausted. The Sultan's proclamation to the Egypt' ians is issued. It declares that Arahi.is a rebel ,for disobeying tile• orders of the Khedive and Dervish Pasha, thereby pro- voking, the intervention of England. „It states the decoration conferred upon Aarbi was bestowed at the instance of Dervish Pasha, in consequence of Arabi's protesta- tions of fidelity, The' proclamation ex- horts all Egyptians to obey the Khedive' Since the elections the ConservativeP „ papers have repeatedly charged' that all the em- ployees of the Ontario\government, under instructions from Mr. Mowat, used theirin- fluence against the return tot Conservatives. Mr. Mowat denies: that he inany xray what- ever influenced or instructed any iemployee to take any part in the election, but very.', few of the Conservative papers have the manliness' to accept his denial, notwithstanding that pit was made some time since. • Those papers, and particularly the Mitchell•- A'dvocate, that charge Mr Cameron witlirun- ning off to. Manitoba to avoid service of pro- test,know well the statement is untrue. If Mr Cameron.'; was so -much afraid of his oppo- nents, he would have remained away longer, but the truth of the matter is he has nothing to fear, and it was not until after he had been home a week that he was served with a'notice. Some -of the Conservatives are going to borne " n o down ker•$op" and- they evidently .want t ; make •the fall as easy as possible.. A branch of the Dominion Temperance Al- liance was; formed at Toronto, Last week,'. among the officers being several well. known: • Conservatives.- -The following resolution was. unanimously passed.' ' Whereas; it has-been represented that all effort is being made to; change the license law by:which ;the appointment of license commis- sioners and inspectors shall again be placed in the hands :of the .municipalities :.Resolved,; that in the opinion of the Executive Com mittee of this Alliance such legislation would be aretrogression, and they would urgs upon all temperance_ peopleto use their influence against.the proposed change.." That"tlie spirit•of the resolution is allrht S very few will deny, but how well they will _adhere_to_it_is_a_matter_of uncertainty, and wil-1 on13 bo told w.heu a test-is.made. . fo the Editor of the Clinton New Era. 'BEAU Sia, -Our Lacrosse Club consider that in your report of the match between Clinton and ourselves that you have scarcely done us justice. We should have referred- to the matter sooner: -but for a morbid abhofence of newspaper warfare, and preferring to fight our battlesrather on the field than through the columns of the press. We consider it un- fair, first, as stating that : Winghant was rle. feated by Clinton,as we are prepared to prove that a number of the players (5) were from the ".Beavers" of Seaforth. We statedthis objection, on the field and were told 'that those men worked in the organ factory, Now, ;ou Friday last at the tournament here. the very men we objected to ran in the Seaforth Hose Reel Company, which conclusively sustains our objection, thiswas the real cause' of our objections to play, not that we were urged to do so by' Mr. ldcLutcheo.n who was afraid -of losing $20 as you sated; Mr. AfeCytclieon« told us to go on ,but we would not do so; and. shouldnot have clone so at all, but for the filet .of disappointing ao many;spectators 'who. had come to witness a game Again, time for each of g , the games was a little astray -tending to show us in even a worse light thanwe were placed -overmatched as we were by the choice .players from two clubs. The time as given by the referee was 15, ' 6, and 65 minutes not 11, 5, and 45 as given in the report. Thesecond game was the only one in which our 'club did not show tip•almost equally well with the home team. You also forgot to mention that through the rough treatment sustained by one of our men the-groater part of the last game we had to enitain with eleven men against 12, and it was only after moving up two heavy, men from defense that the'•ball was finally put through. As we said before we do not wish to figure in print, but trust you will giveus a local plan- ing us in our true position with -reference to the said game. By doing so you wil greatly oblige.
