The exercises of the evening commenced
by singing, by the school, and prayer by
the Pastor, who then took the chair.
Miss Lettie Paps! presided at the organ
yith her usual ability. The ..rt citations,
readings, dialogues, and music, were all
interesting and well rendered, which
showed that considerable time and at-

took part. The audience was cheered
by the presence of Mr. D. McGillicuddy

was ended, the audience repairedto

Convrl-. Coe SECTION. -The Seaforth
Expositor nays: The people of the town
of Stratford voted on a by-law on Satur-
day last providing for the separation M
the town from county jurisdiction.
There was a very large vote polled, but
the by-law was defeated, by a majority
of 41. Stratford being the county town,
a different result could scarcely be ex-
pected. Now that the County of Huron
has given up the maintenance, Of the
county roads, it is nothing in tho pock-
ess of the ratepayers of Seaforth for this
town to remain under the paternal caro
of the county. Thin year we pay $7R4
in counts rater and all we receive in re-
turn is tile hon edary line appropriation.
842, and the High School grant, about
8043, making a total of $6115. It will
thus be seen that we pay $102 for the
honor of sending two representatives to
the county hoard. Were, it not for the
grant we receive for our High School, it
would pay as well to follow the example
of St. Marys and other towns and secure
a ditle,rce from the county, and set up on
our own hook. It would be well for
County Councillors to cherish this fact
in memory and deal leniently with Sea -
forth in the future.

The Geed Maas et Mt. Peters on
Christmas day was celebrated by the
Pastor Rev. Father Watters at 10.30 a.m.
The day being so Easter-liko, the eon-
gregation was very large. The Church
was beautifully decorated with ever-
greens interespersed with dowers, which
were gracefully festooned above the al-
tar and between the aisles,entwining the
pillars and in front of thu gallery. The
walls were hung with mottoes suitable
for the day, artistically framed with
sprigs of cedar. The Altar itself looked
lovely, a handsome scroll, with number-
less waxlights and crosses of evergreen,
were suspended from the arches over the
sanctuay. A most notable and pleas -
feature was the very large number of al-
tar boys, twenty-four, who were dressed
with precision and who attended to the
duties of thoir oftice with great attention.
The grotto at the left of the Altar was
very natural, also the surroundings.
The choir sang well, as usual, under
their leader, Miss A. Doyle, oraaniets.
Mr. Robinson kindly gave his assistance,
which he always does on grand occasions.
His solo in the ''Adeste Hales" which
was sung before the"A spurges" was en-
entoned, was particularly fine. The
choir sang "St. Clair's Ayrie" and the
"Gloria" and "Credo" front Lambillottes
mass. At the Offertory "Pastor'es"
Lvnibillotes Christmas Hymn, was sung,
Miss Robinson doing full justice to the
sok part. The hymn "Hark the -Her-
ald Angels sing" was given at the Elev-
ation, Miss Lizsy Doyle singing the solo
part in an appreciable manner. The ser-
mon was • very pathetic homily, given
by the Rev. Fathers McOauran on the
gospel for the grand resat of Christmas,
being an exhortation to the congregation
to take the beautiful lesson of humanity,
given them by the infant Jesus, at whose
name the heart of every good Christian
would melt as a model for their future
lives, and fur ever remember that the
mission of infant Jesus on earth was to
become their Saviour and Redeemer.
Father McGauran's sermons are always
brief and concise, speaking from heart to
heart and are always received with great
pleasure by the congregation of St. Pet -

ous friends and customers for the very liberal
patronage bestowed upon him during the pant
two months, and shoo to apologize to these
who were not attended to properly last Sat-
urday. as the extraordinary rush of business
etunng that day made it quite impossible for
us to attend to them as we would have
wished. Hoping all have spent a merry

The nominations for school trustee).
for 1882 and 1883 took place in the Cen-
tral school on Wednesday at noon. The'
attendance was sma! 1, the average n u mbar
of ratepayers from each of the four wards
was not over three It seemed at one
time as if no person would put in an ap-
pearance from St. George's ward, but fi-
nally a tneIver pupped quietly in. whisp-
ered his candidate's name, and as quiet-
ly withdrew. The opinion .of all pre-
sent was that as now practiced the elec-
tion of echo of trn+tees is a farce. The
retiring; trustees were all ret -elected, with
the exception of Mt. H. Coke, who do-
clined to stand. The following Oro the
