ON Saturday last five boys who were

bath, by •failing :through the ice. The
language they used is not to be found in
the revised edition. '
Mr. Geo. T. Hiscox, of London, (son -
of Mr. W. Rattenbury,) has issued
a card to the eleetors of that City, an-
nouncing himself its a candidate for the
mayoralty. He is the first in the field. •
THE Willis Church: property, put up
by auction on Saturday, was not sold at
that time, the highest bid for it being
$550; somewhat lower than the upset
price. We believe the Salvation Army
is negotiating for its. purchase.

salary. Our townspeople will glad to
learn that he has decided not. te• accept

HARVEST SEASON.A tremendous.pres.
sure is being made on ouradvertising col-
umns, and we ask our readers to bear with
us for a while. People will advertise in'
the paper with thecirculation of the.NEW
ERA, business men know where to get .thel
best value for their money, and as this is
our harvest season we know that onr• pat-
rons will only rejoice to witness such a
healthy mark of prosperitt.
DEPR ECI ATTON. - The. Goderich Star
says :-The elegant homestead of Hugh;
Johnston, Esq., was last Saturday sold. to
Mr. J. T. Naltel, of Goderich townihip,,
for the very low figure of 53,725. - • . • .
The Star should have added that •this
sale was an evidence of the rapid progress
of Goderich and of the value of property
there, as this elegant homestead original,
ly cost over $15,000.1
• ONE night last week the house of Mr:
13. Switzer narrowly escaped destruction
by tire. By accident, a table, on which
stood a lighted lamp,•was overturned; and
the oil ran on a buffalo coat that was o.n:
the floor, igniting it. There was a big
blaze for a moment, but Ben was equal to
:he emergency, and quickly subdued the
flames before they had made much head-
way. Nothing short of a flash of • light-
ning could get the start of Ben, and even
then it -would require to be protty.quick.
Messrs. Moir and HaWkshaw, of Exeter,
have been driving around the county duy-
ing the past week, on behalf of -the Li-
censed Victuallers; trying to discover
something on which to base a protest .a-
gainst the Scott Act. They allege•that a
sufficient number of the .proclamations
stating the places of voting, were not post,
ed up in the different localities, but even
if tb is were true, wo believe it would make
no difference, as there is a provision in
the act that covers any trifling. informal-
ity. As the time for entering any objec-
tions expires on the 30th, they are evi-
lently straining at a gnat in the hope,
that something may turn up, of advantage,
to. the liquor interest.

" There's one thing at any rate, that
every man who goes to the county coun-
cil should fight fdr," remarked a promi-
nent gentleman to our reporter the other
'lay.
" What is that?".
" Why, a County, Poor House. it's a
shame that in such a county as this we
have no place/but the jail to put our poor
people into. If I were a.member of tine

away at it until something was done in
the matter. If 1 could, not present the'
question in such a light as to show the in-
iquity and injustice of doing as is done
• now, I am very much mistaken."

the disbandment of the Model and High
School joint society, was held in the

The president, Mr. Turnball,' made a few
