Mr. John Willis, who has been suff ering for some months from an abscess in his arm, visited Detroit last week for the purpose of undergoing an open ation, but owing to the doctor's ,ab- scence, returned without having it performed. The farmers are hard at work har- vesting the hay crop and if the weath.- er remains reasonably fine next week the crop will be a heavy one. The fall wheat is also ripening fast and will be fit for cutting as soon as the hay is in. A gentleman who has driv- en a good deal through this province during the past week says,that despite the chronic kicking of the farmers about to much rain, etc.; crops of all kinds are simply magnificent. The list of magistrates' cases in this county for the quarter ending• June 14 shows a total of 71 cases,,17 of which are from Goderich, 13 from Seaforth, 15 from Clinton, and the remainder from various other points. Of the total 12 cases were for infractions of liquor license laws, 18 for assault, 3 for lar- ceny, 2 for insanity, and the remaind- er for vagrancy and minor offences. The total of fines imposed was $122. Seventeen of the cases were dismissed or did not come up for trial. It's passing strange how some peo pie will sign an agreement with their eyes wide open and live to regret it. Some time ago an agent of a Toronto commission house went through the township of Blanshard and entered in to an agreement with several farmers who were to sell to his firm all their butter at 22 cents per pound and their eggs at so much per dozen. They ,(the farmers) also agreed to pay down—as a kind of bonus—the sum of $35, for which they were to receive goods to be selected from samples to he sent them. Those who thought they _were getting a genuine snap, are wondering why the "Samples" are not forthcom• ing, and are troubled least the suppos. ed "agreement" might sometime turn up as a promissory note. If the good forcing weather of the past few days continues for a month and the weather conditions are favor able for harvest we shall doub"tless have beautiful crops of most grains again this year. 'It was generally thought the weather last month was too much on the rainy .side, and fears were beginning to be entertained that much damage to. the growing crops would result. A few cool days followed by brilliant weather this week was ex- actly what was,needed. The; prospects are again look up, and reports of the growing, or rather the ripening, wheat received in the Ins 1 t day or two from from all partsof the Province are sat- isfactory. In some low lying lands the rains have damaged wheat beyond re- covery, the straw being so heavy where the grain was beaten down that. it will never be ready for the reaper, The Detroit Free Press says: "The negotiations which have been. in prow, Fess for over two months by which, the building committee of the new' Mason ie Temple has `sought to secure • the additional portion of the northwest quarterof the block h ocl. bounded' b - Y La- fayette avennt;, Fort, Cass and First streets, culminated, yesterday uh the purchase of the property.

The football match which took place here on Friday evening between Hen - sell Junior (?) team and Exeter Junior team, resulted in a draw, each getting a goal. Our juvenile team deserve credit for the activity displayed by them, as their opponents were much heavier and more suitable so be class• ed as the senior team of that place. A gentleman in Watford, who drives a baulky horse occasionally, has adopt ed a novel method forpersuading the stubborn animal to continue his journ- ey when required. The apparatus con. sists of an electric battery connected by wire to the bit and crupper. Just as the horse has decided. to give him • self a prolonged rest the current is turned on and the electric fluid courses down.his spinal column, and he is ob liged to move along at a lively gait. The air of surprise and disgust mini• fest by the anima; operated on is amus• ing to witness. The experiment was tested and worked like a charm. Considerable interest is being evinc ed throughout the jurisdiction among the.masonic Fraternity in relation . to thc,Elective.Otlicers to be chosen by the Grand Lodge which meets at Lon- don on Wednesday -and Thursday next A gentleman well informed on such natters states the present Grand Mas- ter and Deputy Grand Master are like. ly t'ob,e'accorded another tai'ni; that 'Worshipful Bro.

The experience of the manufacturers of the "Myrtle Navy" tobacco is a val liable lesson in political economy. Pre- vious to their commencing that brand, the tobacco made of the finest Virginia leaf, was always held at fancy prices, and put up in some fancy style of man ufacture. It was thought that only the rich would buy such tobacco, and at the old prices none but the rich Could buy- it. The makers of the "Myrtle Navy" resolved to strip the manufacture of the tobacco of all its fancy costs and put their profit at so low agate that no 'eompetitor co>.tld possibly undersell thein with the same finality of article, From the.very first: until now, their rate of profit has been a uniform percentage upon the cost.
