the respectable people who join you may
succeed in removing that wicked woman
Hmilton from our fair town you cermet, I
am sorry to say, remove the equally vile
characters who patronise her hell. Our
only resource M to ostracise them. They
have forfeitol the respect of everv pure
woman and of every decent rnan. If those
characters who call themselves men piece
themeelves on the level of the brute lienst
they must take their well. merited place ith

Mother* and young lathes. I am informed
that there is a large number of corrupt men
in this town taome 50 or 60),inostly in pretty
fair circumstances financially. and ovally
yoUng Men. Do not let their natty ap-
pointive blind you, or the piece they may
hold in society deter you from finding out
what they are. You will consigler Some-
thing a great deal more necessary to a good
mooch than the ability to make nooney.
Young ladies of Goderich, it is in your
power to 110Ine extent to lessen this evil.
I believe it is quite possible to discover who
the defiled are. At least we know those
who glory in their eke and no decent wo-
man has • right to recovnise any individual
who has set aside all that is most sacred.

The steam barge Wake, Captain A. N.

with • load .4 100,000 feet of lumber and
the large Hodgkins in tow, the latter carry-
ing 1,200,000 feet and having a crew of six
amti and • woman 000k.
During the storm of Thursday, and to-
wards 4Anight, when the tug was being

It is probahle that Mr. Holmes, Co. treas-
urer, will conduct the business until the
Deoember meeting. This we would judge
to be a else doing. The cost of calling a
special meeting would be fully 0500 and
since it is known that the county is not
suffering anything, with matters in Mr.

a spacial meeting for the selection of • clerk
only. Among the names of the epplicante
we learn of that of G. W. Holman, clerk of
the township of Usborne, and from what is
generally, we are inclined to believe
that Mr. Holman will fill the position. The
county clerk should be an educated Irian
and a man well versed in municipal affairs -
one who can take part in educational mat-
ters, as the late Mr. Adamson did, as well
as successfully perfortn the duties devolving
upon the Ake of county clerk. ,.Mr Hot -
Mr. Holman poetesses these functions, and
is in other respects highly qualified for the

the favorite. -Exeter Times.
