The Red River froze over here on the

of Jack Frost at such an unreason -
'able 'early date. Nine years
ago,

27th, three days later, but' afterwards

Mr Blake, an ex -Minister of the

Sharrold, the scene or the evictions
from the estate of the Rev. John Del-
mege, a rich landlord of the County
Limerick, said the evictions enforced
'Thy Delmege were shameful in every
detail. It was a burning shame and
a humiliation, be said, to find a man
living in luxury while bis tenants
were in a state of misery, such as
should invoke God's curse on its au-
thor and abettor. He earnestly adi'is-
ed his hearers to combine again st the
landlords, declaring they had every.
thing to justify them in that course
in sight of' God and din. [Mr Blake
is evidently not afraid of being im-
prisoned for "treasonaltle" language.]
At the Cornwall Assizes on Friday
the day was occupied by the trial of
Charles Jonn Stillwell, editor of the
Glengarrain, for criminal libel in
publishing on the llth and 18th of
February last and May, 13th last a
letter signed "Flora Macdonald," ac-
cusing Mr P Purcell, Liberal M P for
Glengarry, of drunkenness, Sabbath
breaking,deserting his wife and home.,
immorality and seduction. The letter
referred specifically to a certain
Willianstown scandal of ten years ago
but gave no details. The defendant
pleaded that the letter was true, and
that he was justified in publishing it.
The accused was found guilty. Judge
O'Connor, in giving sentence, said' he
had no doubt that Stillwell know
what he was doing in publishing the
libel, and the inference was that he
,had been indemnified. The only
way to get over the indemnity was by
imprisonment The sentence was
tben passed—"That Stillwell - be 1pl-
prisoned in the county jail for one
month, pay a fine of $200 and the
costs of the suit." If the fine be not
paid at the'end of one month, he to
be further imprisoned for three
months.

The Conference atQuebec has come
to an end, and repots of the closing
speeches have been published. There
is •little iu them, except mutual
admiration and congratulations on
the unanimity of the members. Noth-
ing was said to indicate what the
Conference decided with regard to the
financial question. We shall know,
when it pleases the Provincial Min-
isters to make the disclosure, wheth-
er they conclvded to look to Ottawa
and thus give Sir John Macdonald an
excuse to increase the Customs duties
and, foster wore monopolies, or
whether they were manly enough to
declare that men who are permitted
to spend public money ought to accept
the responsibility of raising it by
taxation. Any other scheme than
that of abolishing the subsidies we are
sure, a ill not be permanent. The
existing arrangement suits Sir John
Macdonald exactly, fpr it could not
be better contrived to enable him to
buy political support with other peo-
ple's,money.

CommercialUnion
Many people -are carried away with the idea that Commercial Union
with the United Stateswould. give us manufactured goods at a great-
ly reduced cost, while, at the same time, the value of our farm. pro-
duce would be much enhanced. "Distant fields look green," and we
propose to show you that it is indeed the, "distance" that lends the
"enchantment to the view" in this case, for the apparent verdure of
Yankee markets is simply the greenness in Uncle Sani's eyes, which
are filled with envy because BEESLEY & CO are offering for sale •
goods of such exquisite quality, and at such temptingly low prices
that his fears are aroused, lest not only Canadians stay at home and
buy our goods, but that the most enterprising of his subjects also
be attracted to Clinton to make their purchases,and an the disappoint-
ed eagle screameth when he views the prospect of his intended prey

ago, who waited on the old residents in years gone by, who always treated
you well, who always gave you good bargains when in his power so to
do, who is known ;personally to you all for the past 20 years, who has
now commenced business for himself, in his own native town ; who now
asks for your patronage, who can sell goods closer (has done so since
opening up in Clinton) than those big shops with big runts and large ex-
penses; who is now going to give you a chance never before heard of in
history of Huron County. Remember time and date.
THE CHANCE is this, on Tuesday, Nov. 1st, there will be displayed
in CHEAPSIDE'S window to the south, a
andsome Parlor Set
Fit for any parlor in the County of Huron. "' A handsome present for any
young man to his best girl, or who may be thinking of joining the happy
state about Christmas,. . „
The chance is open to every Man,Wowan andChild in the Dominion
of Canada, to get a good handsome present, that is fit for any drawing•
room in the county.
There will he a large glass jar filled with beans, sealed with wax by
two disinterested gentlemen, who will open and count the same on New
Years eve, in the presence of a third, who will be chosen by those two
gentlemen.
TIIE GUESS.
To the one who comes nearest the number of Beans in the glass jar, will
most assuredly get this handsome Parlor Sot, ,which cost $75, and was
made by A. A. Bennett, expressly for Cheapside. The one who comes
second nearest will get a Beautiful Pair of All Wool Blankets, And the
one who comes third nearest gets a beautiful all wool Blue Black Cashmere
Dress, say nine yards. No favors you can rest assured, Come every-
body and get a guess.

will be entitled to one guess, $10, two guesses, $15, three guesses, and so
on. No ONE PERSON will be entitled to more than five guesses, viz,, $25.
There will be a book kept specially for this grand offering, in which
the name and residence of every person buying $5 of goods will have the
chance to sign their name opposite the number of beans they may guess.

small sum of $5
You can all do with $5 worth of goods, and about this time of the
year is the proper time to give you such a grand chance, not after the
new year, when the best goods are all gone, buy right now during the
months' of November and December. You all know I only opened out
about the middle of April, with an entirely new stock of the best goods
ever shown in the Hub. The Fall Stock is only to hand a few weeks,
and you are all well, aware 'there is no old stale (six to twenty years) goods
on Cheapside's shelves. The whole stock is only six months' and one half
old, so now is your time to get a guess at once for $5, Spot Cash,
(P. S. No trade taken for a guess.)
