Show, • The annual siow of the above named so- ciety took place on Monday and Tuesday last on•the fair grounds in this town. The first day, as venal, was mostly occupied in getting exhibits in order in the indoor department, and giving judgment' thereon. The entries in most departneents, with the exception of hones, was rather below the average in point of numbers, and thia is accounted for by the fact that farmers are more than usually busy this season on ace -Mint nig"! late peried they commenced fall seeding. About everything that was shdwn was very good, only there Waft -not enough of it. In hones the exhibi- tion was far ahead of any previous one, es- pecially in heavy draught and general pur- pose classes. The late importations of Messrs. McMillan and Mason added very ranch to the Esuccess of the show and eased great attrac- tion. All -those -who -entered thoroughbred cattle, sheep and. pigs deserve great credit as they were fine animals and inlood condition. The show of poultry was tolerably good,- but not in quantity what it ought to be. There' were several new features in the implement department, in the shape of a mower knife grinder, new scufflers and a grain crusher • with disks instead of it cylinder, and a few other Datum improvements. 'The' attendance waa not quite BS large as usual, though fair. On Tuesday the weather looked threatening in the morning, but cleared up and was fine in the afternoon. Mr. A. Taylor exhibited the model of an improved method of open- ing farm gates, his own invention, -which 0 tracted considerable notice: .0ST, a large; well made :Wheelbarrow, painted drab, and having moveable- sides.- Any.

There was very little fruit, owing to much of it this year being destroyed by in- sects.

Several of our business men exhibited assortments of_ -t-heir good-a:701M were very much admired among them being, Messrs. W.'

Turner, 3rd comes- siOn of Tuckeismith, was discovered to be on fire, and had made such headway that it was impossible to save it. It appears that a little girl had' been playing inside tirsbarn with matches, and set some straw • on fire;,instead of telling parties who were in the yard milking what she 'had done, - and who it is thought might' have been able to extinguish the flames, she ran to the hous,e and informed sonic of the in- mates. The barn, ton which was attached stables and other outbuildings, contained a large quantity of fall wheat, oats, hay, etc./ all of which were lost. It was fortu- natethat no wind was blowing, or it would have been imppssible to' have saved the house. The barn was insured for $2,- 000mbut Mr. Turner's loss will be heavy. COLBORNE,.
