"Popular House"
a Ca TT14Eral
For agricultural purposes, we believe
no better district can be found in the
Domiuiou than the County of Huron.
This is to a great extent owing to the
industrious people occupy the land, and
work it in such a manner that its fer-
tility has, WO were about to say,d)ecome
axionnitie. Not only has Huton at the
county, 'Western, Central,
es .
and Provincial exhiations made :itself
known by the excellent quality of the
products of its soil; but also by the su-
perieritypot itO stoels-aselor instance,
witness the numbers of prizes carried'
off by etock-raisers. To raise our coun-
ty, its people and products to even a
higher position in the estimation of'
outsiders end ourselves,wo must organ-
ize more thoroughly -adopt system
more practically. It was this very idea
that suggested to the fifty or more
ratepayers of Exeter the advisability of
petitioniug the County Council while in
session in Seaforth, 117 Doceniber of
1873, to pass a by-law authorizing the
establishment of a cattle fair in this
village on the second. Tuesday, of each
month. The Council did.so, but we
are 501.1.37 to say that the privilege thus
exteuded us by this body has never
()nee been made -use of, so that we are
not in a position to say whether it
wonld be feasible or not, Dr whether it
would be practicable.
'We hope that eome steps maybe im-
mediately taken to establish the month-
ly fair. Surely the men principally
iliterested in the euccess of the scheme
(110 1100 so apathetic as to let it the an.
easy death before its inceptiou !
not,let them -take hold of it right away.
And we think no better day for a COM -
m(211.2(3111011 them the day of the Spring
Show, which happily fells upon the se-
cond Tuesday of April, the day decided
'by by-law Old WhiC11 to held tho 111011t11-
13, fairs. It is certain to be well at-
teuded, as buyers know how well -bred -
is the stock in this part, and sellers
know they can secure the top" figures.
Those who are interested should take
hold. They cannot expect disinteres;-
ed parties to do so whey they them-
selves will not ; their e.fforts will be se-
conded.
Since writing the above, the Council,
has decided, as will be 7e01.4 by postei:S,',
to call a fail. for the sale of cattle on
the,same day that the ShONV of entire
stock takes place in this village. The
fair Will be held on the show ground.
We hope that this, whih is to be the
first of the quarterly fails in Exeter
will be well attended by cattle buyers,
as well as by those who wish to sell,
and that.its success may be stamped.
Owing to the, depression in trade, both in Can-
tata and the 'United:States, tile mantlacturers
and r,tholesale men 13,00 been forced to dispose
of their Stocks for

noiiitig has been done ia the matter,
further than a slight movement of the
Gunnell towards protection against fire.
'Moving did we say. Well, we will ad. -
mita, but the move made only effeeted
the calling 07 11 fire meeting, at which
meeting a immher of , officers were
elected, who never received notice of
their election, simply bcause the Coun-
cil failed to ratify the appointments.
Bat vie are a trifle wrong, the " tuE"
otherwise called 17 fire -engine had a
something done to it, we don't know
what, and then it was laid up again to
dry. As we have already said we have
inta a warning. Ou Monday morning
hest, the fiery fiend threw out his lim-
pid tongue and lapped. up at one
draught several thousand dollars in
the village Of Lucan. But, although,
we ate iti a measure, a trifle better off
here than they were there. We hav-
ing brick buildings, whilst t'heir's were
frame. Eveu that, though, won't ex-
empt us. Oar time is to come, unlese
our interests are looked after. Let us
have more protection. Wo think the
voiee of the people demands it. If -we
can have no other or better engine
than the one I/O have, let tin, Council
see to it, that it is made as useful as
possible.

A DESPERATE ENCOUNTEIL-A n OVel
and thrilling scene occurred at Grand

young Grand Bendel -has had his 11011,71
strucic by one of Cupid's arrows, and
on the evening nanaed he put on his
best bib and tueker and sallied forth to
visit his lady love. The young lady's

The door was lucked, the lamp turned

ber of heavy sighs had been hove from
one to another and back again, they
" hitched their chairs up nigher." All
was lovely until aboot twelve o'clock,
when a stealthy l'ootstop was heard in
the back kitchen. Fearing burgla,rs,
the door 'MIS cautiously opened and the
watch dog let out ; on daring to look

A REMARKABLE 14ALLUCINATION.
The time of gli sets and strange
stories does not appear, after all, to be
only of the flexible, imagination of tile
Medieval period or the harrowing
min Is of grandmothers who Stand on
the verge of the allotted span, or of the
pet nitres whose mission and pilgrim-

buoyant spirits of aspiring man by tel-
ling him of the humberless times the
spirits of their aneestoes appeared at
their windows, and by this means se-
cured it reign of quiet. We say these
days aro not past, and in, this we speak
truly. We road records of transpira-
tions, of spirits promenading the brims
of Leer vats (of which no doubt exists),
of spooks carrying of the maids of Brit-
tany, aim so on. And also of illusions
-optical and illoptical-, but not of-
ten of cases which migbt eause the
muds 07 1)111102. to evolve with such
painful quickness in their study as the
following, which we give as rumor sent
it us, and we only sayieg to our read-
ers, cunt grant) whs. For reasons, we
shall not publish any natnes, but mere-
ly state that the occurrences about to
be related transpired, or are said .to
have transpired, in TJsborne. It ap-
pears that a few Sundays since, an old
reeident WaS called to render up his
last account. A short distance fr1 in
this person's residence, were standing
in the door of a house two or three gen-
tlemen, with their wives. About 11.-
30 A. Al., a halo was seen to spread it-
self about and above the house in which
dwelt the perbon now deceased, and
presently to issue forth in a flame and
smoke. Doubtful, they retired to the
upper story of the house, and the view
there ',obtained strengthened the ideit
received below. The gentlemen, aware
that sickness was in the house, and
thiuking it to be a mass of fire, rushed
towards the spot, 11181. 11 was whilst on
theie way that they stopped, and the
climax of the phenomenon took place -
As if by the magic wand of the sorcer-
er, the flames and smoke arose, assum-
ed a huge nla3S above tho house, then
slowly spread. and dropped like a mist
t 1
into the earth. The house s ooc eu-
tile. Taking this iu connection with
the fact that at this very hour, the old
gentlemanpassed away, anddropped off
into the sleep of sleeps, these are cir-
cumstances which might cause us to
eXclitim, the hand of'Crod has shown us
great things, but yet greater are to
come.,,,esaThen we haveauother story,
the celfs'ect one, which has been taken
fronAlie lips of one of the persons in-
terested iu the interview with him.
Btffralthough What. he has informed
us ale not facts which would cause ue
to think the circumstances to be of so
strange a nature, there is yet sufficient
in them to lead one to understand a
strange and peculiar hallucination may
have existed, whatever other theoretical
connections the superstitious may af-
firm are in it. We might state that
the morning was rather hazy, and that
the story was true, insofar as it related
to having observed the smoke, but our
informant thinks it may have been op-
tical of the 81111, causing an
such as its shiniog unon snow on a
misty day, and producing a fire -like
appearance. Instead of the smoke and
-fire 'being distinct and rising up in a,
body, and then dropping, they were
light and seniewhat hazy, the house be.
mg partially distinctodtheugh appear-
ing as if in a fire, and the supposed
smoke and flame disappeared as would
a mist. We have now given the stories

Fire.
On Easter Mondayinoiling, our
la,ge Was .the scene of a-disastrottS fire,
and Main street has noise four fewer:
houses than it had last week.
The .fire originated in Air. Henry
Collins' flushes), ,which •was blunt to
the ground in isbout littlf an hour. Mr.
Collins says he lit a fire in his store
at 6 o'cleek in the morning, then went
to his stable; and on returning to the
house in less than five minutes, he saw
the house in flames. The rest of the
family were in bed, and :such was the
fury of the fire that there was not time
for them to dress before making their
escape. Mrs. Collins in rescuing the
youngest child had a, EarrONV escape
with her life, for half a miuute had 1,ot.
elapsed after she snatched the baby
from its cot when the floor fell and the
cot fell into the burning mass beneath.
Books, notes, stock, bedding- every-
thing on the pscmises was burnt, and
even $125 which lie had in the house
in bank bills .was consumed. On Sat-
urday he was in a comfortable position
-on Monday he was ruined. The
property he lost was worth several
thousand dollars, on which there WaS
au insurance of one thousand. The
harness shop occupied by Mr. -Win.
Thompson caught fire from tile tinehop
and was speedily burnt down, nots
however, before the stock was saved.
An adjoining house was pulled down,
and thus the fire was prevented from
spreading to Mr. H. B. Quarry's house.
Mr. Bosworth's drug store on tho east
side of Collin's was soon in flames but
thanks to the fire engioe, the fire was
kept under until the whole stock was
removed. Had the engine been on tho
ground a little sooner, there is no doubt
that tho drug store would have been
saved. As it was, we are of opinion
that it is due to to the work dooe by
it that the Central Hotel and Mr.
Mara's ` grocery store are • uninjured, -",•,'•

VESTRY 11IEETING.-The annual Eas-
ter Vestry meeting was held by the
members of Holy Trinity Church on

and F. Sadlier were reappointed church-
wardens. Air.,11. Faxwas reappointed
