WEST RIDING SHOW. The Number of Entries Large in All Departments. Sad Heather e■ the aeesad Si) some Srtef Obsers alleles sad a Leralay rales LY. 'Die wholesale bribery carried on by A. H. Itoe in Lennox, in the interest of Sir John A. Macdonald, is cooling to light at the trial of the case at Napanee. Roe gave sums of a,oney in bills varying from $2 to 820 to men to vote for Mac- donald, women were bribed, and even the school children wore regaled by Roe with bulls -eyes -giving thein taffy, as'it were. It now looks as if Roe will be disqualified for hta work in th'o Domin- ion election. Sir John can hardly es.'ape being unseated. on Tuesday the weather was as sultry as a midsummer day. It was the open- ing day fur the Nest Riding of Huron fall show, and a large number of exhibi• tors brought in their favorite articles. The inside department was lamely pat- ronized by visitors on Tuesday evening, and the building was well lighted. Tho display, on the whole, was voted very good, considering the season. The specimens of apples and pears shown were really excellent, and the potatoes and cabbage were of superior ,quality. In fact all the fruit and vegetables sur- prised the visitor. The display of planta and flowers was very good. A Dickson and Mrs. C. A. Humber came close upon those veteran professionals, Watson and Bingham, while a splendid collection of phlox drummondi shown by R. Bonamy eclipsed all rivals. M. C. Cameron, M. P., was a heavy ex- hibitor in vegetables We regret that our space will not permit us giving par- ticulars of the various classes on exhibi- tion, owing to the great length of the prize list. The ladies department was stocked with very creditable work, but the list of exhibitors is too large to enu- merate here. The art department was a favorite stand with visitors, but ex- ecrations, rather than compliments, were showered upon the heads of the judges by the large majority of those who viewed tau work on eihibiticn. Such wretched taate as was shown by the judges of water -colors for instance, is astonishing. We hope the direc- tors will in the future select some capa- ble persons to judge in this very inter- esting department. Otherwise none but glaring daubs will be lett on the walls, as no artist with taste or feeling will care to enter work. Some very THE graphic letters which appear on our 2nd and 3rd pages, are written by former school teachers of Huron. We can commend them to our readers as en- tertaining and instructive writing. The writer of the San Frontline letter is D. E. McConnell, formerly of Ashfield. The Chautauqua letter is from the pen of a young lady, a former pupil c,f the Gode- rich High School South Dam, ir-Axed ram, John Hannah, 2d klax.Olen,3d John Salkeld, jr.

After reminding his auditors ..f the ser- vice which Captain Boycott rendered to the dictionary, he mentioned that that gentleman, finding his position untena- ble in Ireland, left the country and went over to England. He there discovered that the Government. was either unwil- ling or unable to furnish a regiment of soldiers for the protection of his pigs and potatoes at Ballinrobe.

His pictures were greatly admired, and the many audible commepts of a most com- plimontary character must have pleased the clever young artist. J. N'. 1Veathersld had an attraetive corner.

SAD ACCIDENT. -A sad and most fatal accident oc•:urred to a young child aged fifteen months, daughter of Mr. David Haley, last Friday afternoon. Mrs. Haley left three young ehildien in the house, the eldest being about five years old, while she went to call upoit'a neighbor. While the mother was absent one of the eldest children was putting in some shaving which were left on the floor and was starting a fire, when the fire from the shavings caught in the baby's clothes, and soon they were in a blaze. The child ran to the road to meet the mother, but this only made the clothes barn worse The mother had to be sent for and by the time she arrived the little one was badly burnt in differ- ent parts of the hotly. We are glad to hear, under medical treatment, there are hopes of the recovery of the little child. L This surely ought to he warning to par- ents not to leave little children in the house alone. A. barn. Three of our juvenile sportsmen cap- tured a racoon each one day lent week. J. P. Brown, :our :-ell-known carriage builder, is to the front again having biken three first prizes and one second at the Ihungannon show. People are beginning to wonder when work will begin on the hill at the post office. More than a month has elapsed since the contract was given, and still there are no signa of work beginning. Jos. Dobie, who has been impending the summer visiting his mons and daugh- ters in Dakota and Wisconsin, returned on Monday last. He gires a good ac- count of the West, but while thinking it a good place for young people is satisfi- ed for his part to remain in Caned& An entertainme,it will be given in the Temperance hall on Friday evening of next week.
