J. Clarke, of London, formerly of Exeter. Mr Clat ke was more seriously injured than was supposed, having had two or three ribs broken, We are sorry to report this unfortunate circumstance, as Mr Clarke has been a long sufferer otherwise, and has had his share of trouble along this line. Rev Mr Nugent, of Mitchell, preached sermons to the 8 S. children of Main-st Meth church on Sunday last, and in the afternoon, together with Principal Austin, of St Thomas. addressed a mass meeting of children. Rev Nugent is a powerful preacher. eloquent and practical, and his sermons can be listened to with the utmost interest. Rev Mr Wilson conducted ser- vices for Rev Mr Nugent in Mitchell. "Prof. Trevor,. who is without a peer as a.inueie teacher, took his class down to Sebringville on Thursday evg of last week and gave an excellent concert in the town hall, to a crowded house. The program was well carried out, and the singers re- ceived rapturous applaase."-Mitchell Ad- vocate. The Prof has evidently wonder- fully improved since he was in Exeter last fall, as his concerts were by no means appreciated here. Complaints are often made of the in- ferior quality and short treasure of wood sold in town. Where there is much stnoke there must re some fire. However, parties buying wood, who afterwards find they have received inferior wood or lessin quality than they bought and paid for,' have the privilege, and it in their duty to have the offenders who deceive them u e h m s at monad before the reeve, who bas the power to make examples of those violating the civil and morel law.

The treasurers report was gratifying as it shows the township is fully prepared to meet its railway debt the debentures of 'which =lure next August. This is a good showing, and is much more honorable to the present generation than to leave to their success- ors a heritage of debt. The "House of Refuge" question was most thoroughly discussed and the weight of argument was in favor of the house. The only serious objection urged a;ain4t it is that the rural Municipalities would have to a great extent to auppurt the poor of ' the towns andincorporated villages ; for in- stance the township of T?abodes raises aumethina like seven times as much as Exeter so that if the poor rates were levied en all alike, C.'sborne would pay. six or seven rules as much as Exeter for the Itcep of Exeter's poor, and few farmers are generous enough to do that at present; but the time will soon conic when all objections meat bo overcome and a house, of refuge erected.- Ms. Thomas Smale, accompanied by her son, is visiting her eldest son in Hamilton. Granton. Brnrrs---The Public schools, are now closed for tete ho idays.-Sleighing is all that could be desired and lively times may be anticipated for the rext week. -The entertainment in the English ohareh here Oat Menday eight was an immen9e success Tho Ladies having the platter in hands are to be congratulated an the bili of faro they had'to present. -The entertainment iu the Presbyterian church on Christmas eve, was quite up to former efforts and is fully entitled to be claimed as a success. The Rev A Grant, of St Marys, gave an excellent address on the subject "church work" which was listened to with rapt attention. At theo,ose of the programme Mr Henderson mho has been a zealous worker in the school for some time, and who is now about to continue his studies in St Pauls Minn., was called to the plat. form and presented with a valuable teach- er's Bible and gold pen, by the Rev Mr Campbell, on behalf of the school. Mr 73. though taken completely by surprise suitably replied, -Mr Alfred Gunning, of Sana'ac Co U S and Son is now vi iting his relatives, the Gunning families, of Blanchard. Mr Gunning has been one of the foremost business inen of the state of Michigan and does now carry on an exten- sive business. He says that in Michigan you can purchase pi ime beef at from $3 50 tc $4 50 per 100 lbs, and the best pork at $1 per 100 lbs ; and excellent stockers at from 2 cents to 2 cents per lb. What a boon such a market would be to the Can- adian farmer. Such a cheap country to live in would verily he a paradise to Sir Richard, and how sweet 4c beef would taste to the Ann Arbor Philosopher. There was a time when the American market was worth something to the Canadian farmer, but happily now the ` boot is on the other leg." The Canadian market for oats, wheat, pork, beef, and cattle is vastly superior to that of the United States. Mr G. says a good eow can be bought tor $20 that would readily bring, in Granton $10. With those facts staring the Canadian farmer in the face is it any wonder that he should say to Messrs Wiman, Cartwright & Co when trying to seduce him to give up such real blessings for what can scarcely be said to be the photograph of a shadow, an emphatic "No Sir."
