She will be given a public reception by the citizens of that town. .At the last meeting of the Fullerton township council, the reeve was in. structed to serve the county clerk with a notice of appeal against the equalization of the personal property of the township of Fullerton and other municipalities. Mr. John McDonald has entered an action against the Stratford; Herald. It appears that McDonald's wife died a few weeks ago, and a few days be- fore her: death the Herald stated that McDonald had kicked her, causing premature birth and consequentdeath. The facts are that deceased died from dropsy, One day in every year is claimed by residents ot. this Canadian Dominion as an occasion for sporting the rose, shamrock or a sprig of heather.. This being ';true, native Canadians can surely wear the maple leaf on 'Domin- ion Day without being run in by the police. Wm. Reid, a,young `man working at the Goderich lumber_ docks, burst a blood vessel yesterday afternonn and died a few minutes after. He came from Kincardine, and; had only been at work at Goderich for two , weeks. His remains were taken toKincardine. 1 HAD tried many . doctors and was given up by them ss far gone into consumption, but was permanently cured by using, Everest's Cough Syrup. J. Simpson, Arberarder. A toll -gate keeper was recently brought before a.Magistrate on the charge of cruelly beating his daughter.

In some way a bucket ,of sand, that ;, was being hoisted, became detached, and falling struck him partly on the head, inflicting a bad scalp wound, and injuring his skull. It was a narrow escape from death. During a severe thunder storm the Other day. 1i h tnin struck thechim- ney on the kitchenof Mr. Aaron Sawyer's house, Base Line, Blanshard, and running down tore • up a small portion of the floor under the stove, but did no further damage.. It also • struck the Kirkton .Methodist church spire but did, not injure it much. On the, third line of Blanchard it killed two steers, the property of Mr. Wm. Switzer. They were valued at $70. A few days since. Mr. J. W. Hill; who resides on the gravel road, just outside of Clinton,: met with a painful accident. He had attached several feet of chain to the -halter of his horse, which was out pasturing, in order that he might catch it easier. • Alter he had caught hold of the chain the other day. something frightened the horse, which caused it to jerk, fasten- ing , the end of the chain in .Mr. Hill's thumb; at the same • time he was -thrown down, and dragged in this excruciatingly painful position for a few yards, whi'e the hook, tore, itself irom the cords of the thumb. A meeting of fifty to sixty influen- tial farmers, stock -raisers and breed- ers from various points in Western Ontario Was held at Stratford on Tues- day to deliberate Upon the formation of a Live Stock Company. Mr. John McMillan, M. P. for South, Huron, was chosen Chairman. The following gen- tlemen were elected Directors: -John McMillan, M P, ftullett "" Alex Innes, Stanley ; Robt. Beath, Bowmanville Thomas Evans, St. Mary's , W. D. Serby, Guelph ; D. D. Winton, Sea- forth ;, D. M sIntosh, Brucefield ; A. Bishop, M. P. P,, Osborne ; John Beattie, Seaforth ; John Islington, Stratford , Phomas McLaughlin, Brus- sels ; H, W. 0. Meyer, Wingham , Robt. Graham, Claremont ; W. G t°. • Bissett, Exeter ; J. A. Blackwell, Clin- ton. by that. He says that the Exeter delegation were part ot a delegation seat to Seaforth to offer the unanimous nomination to UoI. Coleman at the last local contest but instead ot' doing so, tried to prove that the Col. had no chance of electron. , Now that state- ment ie as false rues statementcan be. That delegation (Exeter included) unanimously tendej'ed the nomination to Dr. Coleman. 'Dr. Coleman asked the candid,•opixrionlof all the delegates present, which was candidly' given, in the same spirit that itwas asked for. Dr Coleman being ill at the time asked the delegation on that account by no lack "of candor; to deceive him. Notwithstandngthe unanimous tender Dr. Coleman decisively d'eclined'to be the nominee. rhe nomination was then offered to five or six gentlemen present in:the room, all declining. Then and only then In accordance with instruotiona from the Bewail convention to this delegation, to nominate a candidate m event of Dr. Coleman declining ; only then 1 say, was the name of Mr. Swenerton brought forward.' He was ,brought forward as a conservative and an opponent of thelvlotvatadrninistration,, m good faith, and only after all other efforts to secure a candidate had failed. It was only then a question of Swenerton ora straight' reformer, In all this the Exeter delegation acted with -fairness, honesty, honor and lib- erality--the'Sem man to the contrary notwithstanding. Exeter people have no idol in politics, but the best gov- ernment on the best principles. 1'o prove that it is only necessary to. Fay that no matter who the man, where be lived or what his religion, Exeter always did its duty. Exeter people gave Mr. 'T. Case, a Seaforth man a grand majority. They gave Mr. G. E. Jackson, of Seaforth, a splendid ma- jority •twice. Exeter never before asked or had a candidate (but once in the person of 1. Carling, Esq.) and did'. not ask or want one then only failing all other "means to secure one. And yet the Sun man has the cheek and impudence to call Exeter people in- tolerant and self-seeking. Seaforth can give no such ;account of absence of selfishness in Seaforth politicians. If Seaferth can't have a candinate of her own, Seaforth just kicks and beats the candidate. The Sun man knows perfectly well that the Exeter dele- gates would have far rather supported Col. Coleman, as a candidate more in sympathy with their own views than Swenerton, if Col. Coleman could be induced to accept. Co!. Coleman first privately and publicly asks the dele- gates to be candid and truthful as men and then the Sun man and others damn the delegates• for acceding to the Col's request. I thought nothing would have tempted me to re -open this "old question, but the Sun's attack was so personal, gross, false and un- justifiable that I have no option. Yours, !GO. ANEYETER'DELEGATE.

TIIE TRIIESIPDs OF A. onEAT DISCOVERY. Tho magnic influence of gold attracts the people of every clime to our shores. ' Men of all nations, and speaking all the langua- ges of civilization, aro to be found congre- gated on our auriferous plains, Differing in all other things in their costume. habits, and religion -yet there is one point upon which their opinions_ coincide. English- . met' and. Americans, Freugh, Swiss, Germans, Swedes, Italians, and Chinese admit, without a dissenting voice, that the great remedies ietroduced to, the world forty years ago by Holloway are better adapted to the pure of diseases in this climate than other preparations in exist ence. This appears, in fact, to be the 'ex- perienoe of mankind•. inall parts of the world, and hence` the universal popularity of these medicines. We consider, bewevor, that thehoitndless confidence placed in their efficacy" by the representatives of so many nations at the mines, is a striking phenomenonin medical history. Many of these people in their youth, and even at maturity, «ere accustomed to the use of drugs and nostrums peculiar to their sev- eral countries. ev-eralcountries, These remedies were con- nected in .their minds with association of home, and indorsed, as it were, by their national prejudices. Yet they have been thrown aside and utterly repudiated, while Holloway's Pills and Ointment have been adopted by a common impulse throughout the entire gold regions. Time is only one way of accounting for this movement. It is the result of conviction -conviction grounded on personal obaervation and ex. perience. The Ointment is used with t,noh won- derful success as a dressing for wounds, uloers, and sore legs, and for all the ex- ternal diseases and casualties to which the adventurous gold hunter is peculiarly liable, that scarcely a digger's tent can be found within the vast area of the gold fields unprovided }with a stook of this healing, soothing, cooling preparation. .The hard fare ot the digger, and sometimes his Habits, tend to vitiate the blood and de- velop running sores and purulent ulcers of the body and limbs. Bad legs. especially, are very comi'fion at the diggings, and seriously interferewith the labors of the diggers. The worst cases of this class are cured by tee Ointment with. extraordinary rapidity. The best method of, healing sore legs, and sores and ulcers generally, is by rubbing the Ointment into the inflamed part around the orifice, first opening the pores and softening the flesh with waren fomentations, The part affected is then, dressed with lint or linen satu.ated with. the Ointment. Such is the external treat- ment, but it is also proper to give the. patient a few doses of the Pills during the progress of the cure, as they serve to purifythe blood and discharge morbid o attr from the system, while '6he.
