The regular annual meeting of this Aseo•
elation was held in the Central School, Sea -
forth, on Thursday and Friday of last week.
The first paper discussed was: one on: "False
English,`" by Mr. Crichton, of Seaforth High
School, He illustrated his meaning by re.
ferences to periodicals, newspapers, and se-
lections from many authors, showing the
ambiguity frequently met. with. A hearty
vote of thanks was tendered Mr. Crichton
for his eabjeet,
Mr. W. G.. Duff of Roxboro, next p mental
his paper on "Discipline." • Mr.Dutt showed
first that deoipline was essential and elevat-
ing; he then proceeded to ahow huw to ob-
tain it• We should keep our pupils constant.
ly employed while in the sohool-room, Ile
suggested, a time•tabl'e for each class (riot. for
the wholeschool,) showing every pupil what
work he should be engaged in at any minute
of the day. Mr. Duff received a well-deserv-
ed vote of thanks upon the conclusion of hie
paper.
Miss Graham, of Brampton, introduced the
subject oL "Difficulties in Reading," suggest-
ing remedies, for common errors and difiioul•
ties encountered in the average school. Upon
motion of the Secretary, seconded by Mr.
MoFanl, a vote of thanks was tendered Mies
Graham.
Mr. Groves next read the delegates' report,
which on motion was adopted,
On the evening of Thursday the Aseocia• .
tion assembled .= Cardno's hall to. hear Misr
Graham'a evening of readings. The first—a
Bible selection, furnished a striking contrast
with.the style of. reading frequently adopt
ted by' members of the clerical profession.
.The • next, ' "The School Master's Guests,:"
was quite suggestive and well appreciated by
the large number of the fraternity present'.;
"The Three Lovers" was oneof the most sub.,
Timely ludicrous pieces 'extant, to which Mise:
Graham rendered athe charms of a cultured
elocutionist; "The Fixes' Tails en. Sandy
Macdon'ald's Signal" is one that Miss Graham
should not attempt.before°a Scotch audience
until': slot haa a more complete mastery of the
Scotch .dialect.'The Grandmother's . Apolo-
gy,' a selection, from Tennyson was'well'ro-
cei_ved and was

ing. -Mimi Graham cona1udea most enjoy.:
able evening with"Katie Lee end Willie. Gray.'+
The readings were interssppersed by musical
selections, Mies Ewing, of : Seaforth, playing
three instrumentals; and Miss Callander; of
:Clinton, a solo:; Miss Ewing is one of the
coming pianists. Already.hWr reputation is
not merely lucal; and nos are sure she node•
only;to be heard to be, appreciated.. Mise
Callander has a fine soprano voice ; upon con-
eluding, a, lady, a strangerin tows, remark-
.ed "thatyouung..lady would not have sung in
our town without an encore." ,• A. most sue
cessful evening was concluded .by the audi.-.
ode singing !'God save: the Queen."
Upon .rooming work on Friday morning.
the President introduced Mr.: H. S. IVicLean,
•of Clinton. High' School, ,who pointed out'fro
Anent "Errors in pronunciation," illastrating
by a long List of words frequently, if not usu•
ally mispronounced.. A vote • of thanks was
tendered him for the manner in villein he'had
'handledlthe subject... '
A discussion then followed as - to the ad-
visability ofholding a union: ineeting• of the
.West• Riding Association with the North
Huron Association, when it wad finally decid-
edthat we deem it advisable to, bola such
union meeting, and that Messrs. Malloch and

A point of great interest in the railway
centre of St. Paul is the uniln depot, into
which all the railways entering the .city come;
the system and order: is. complete, and the
wayfarer may rejoice, when once within its
walls, .he cannot go astray, provided the tick-
et is right. St. Paul is *city of wholesale
merchants, and shows signs of•prosperity and
t
growth'; the streets leading he station
from
and many other streets ;are, lined with lofty
wholesale homes. The building operations
for the vear:1883 amounted"ti}' $11,000,040,
of floodsis far greater than the real.
Steps are now bring•-takef► by the Manitoba
Legislature to deepen the bed of the river, t
the outlet; by dredging,, and if some of Me
sharp bendseinrthe course of the river were
straightened, these improvements would do a
great deal towards abolishing Red Fiver,
floods. The. Dakota side of the river,
how-
ever, does notsuffer same extent as
the Minnesota side, the•land lying higher on
the former. The farmers logk,upon the dttfi-
culty of marketing their products as one
greater than that of Toss from flooding, being
and apparently they bidfair to net a larger now at the mercy of the railway monopoly
sum for the present year: It would. seem and the•elevator companies; but there appears
to be a prospect of an early release from this
position, by, the construction. of 'a competing
lineof railway, which it is propoeed to run
down the valley of the river; from. Fargo to
Pembina, and wliioh'it is expected will find
its way through Manitoba before many years.
In our journey Nye passed the farms of a num.
ber of old Huronites• well known to many of
your readers— Messrs. McAuley, Sperling,
Newell, Nelson, S. Rumball, and Joe. Muir,
of'Howtck:: This gentleman gave us the hie -
tory of the`Fenian raid, whioh was to have
pioceeded from this territory, •It had its
origin in a joke perpetrated on a few of the.
citizens of. Grand'•Fsrks and Dakota, and it
certainly could .not have been anything seri-
ous, ae nothing was ever'+heard ot it' at Fort
Pembina, where two companies of American
troops are stationed, .and through which we.
drove on our way back to Pembina.:: In fact,
in the whole distriot through which, we tra-
velled,
ra
f miles, there are
1 ed to the o three e
ve l
a+
worth ,
only three. settlera':who are net Canadians. In
the counties. of Pembina, Walsh and Grand
Forks the great majority of the •settlers are
Canadian. We notice that inthis part. of
Dakota there are no large farms, such as are
to be found further South in the States arid

that the; wholesale trade have succeeded in
securing the great•bulk'of the business .north
and west of the oity,:or divides, it with Min.
neapolis, only ten miles farther up the Mis-
sissippi. The population of both, places is
iucreasjng•at• 'a• very rapid .rate, that of St.
Paul now being about 100,000. - The rout
valuable interest at thesepoints is the milling
interest, whioh has invested and controls an
immense -capital, It is 'said, however; that
the mills are not doing mere than holding
their own, and a' itiajority of them would pre-
fertto close down for a time, until the mar-
ket for dour takes a firmer stand. A special
difficulty, seems to be that the milling associa-.
tion last'aeison •bought large quantities. of
wheat, at' a high figure, being under' the im•.
pression that wheat would rise in prioe, and
that now the dour cannot command a price
to repay .the mills for .running. This is -a,
proof that Monopolies 'sometimes overreach
themselves. Ou r ride from St. Paul was
Made during the night ;early in the mornin morning
we passed through arookaton,Minnssota situ-
ated on'tie Red Laka River, which is (spoken
of as a place great of promiiae.From this point
the line leads along, the valley of the :Red

ern part' of. Dakota during Snnday;'ind only
passed:: one pioneer town whichshowed any
positive ovidencer of disregard' for Sunday,
• and we discovered, on enquiry, that at that
place no religious services had beenheld dur
ing' the winter. It is evident that the leading
religions bodiee'aro displaying especial devo-
tion andrnissionary spirit, inanpplying-these:
pioneer eettlemeuts with the'privileges• of 're-
ligions teaching. There, are some very large
ferns„ along the line of this railway, the St.

that of Mr. J. J. Hill, it consists .of 60,000
acres lying• on either side of the line of rail
