Last Friday, the second day of the Show, :taw a large number Of people On the fair grouud8, it being estimat- od that there worn over 2,000 pres- ent. rho "Palace" was thronged all afternoon and everything was well inspocted. The display in the inside department was not as large in some classes ns in farina yoars bttt the exhibits wore butter. In roots and hoed crops we novae saw'a much bet- tor show. Outside ono of the most noticeable foaturos was the largo and splendid allow of cattle, Tho sheep and pig pens wero not filled as well as we have seen them but the ani- mals 013 exhibition wore of a high order and well deserving of prizes. Special montion might be made of tho Shropshire down sheop of Chas. Hingston and Thos. Heritage and Juo. Cumming and Win. Machan in Cotswolds. Jac Tuck, of Cranbrook, who is taking a foremost position as brooder of pure bred Borkshiro and Suffolk pigs, took 5 let prizes and 1 2nd ou his exhibit. They are worth seeing. David Milne and Thos. Roes had large herds of thoro'•bred and grade cattle on exhibition. The show of poultry was up to tho average but the want of properly constructed coops to show the birds is a disadvantage to the exhibitor. Jas. Harrison, of Bel - grave was the largest oxhfbitor. In the horse ring a large number of ex- cellent colts wero shown but the num- ber of entries in the carriage, buggy and saddle classes were small. The show ring is not in good shape to even give an animal a fair chance. Putting on two sots of judges for tho !horses, one for heavy and the other fox light horses was a move in the right direction. The gate receipts will tally fairly well with other years and taking tho show all in all it was a good one.

Pors°na will vote to suit them. selves whon the election is by ballot, and a fresh interest will be worked pp iu school matters. In my opinion the ballot is the way. I papa no particular fault to find with the Brussels School Board—not that I consider them perfeat—but they managed business vory well, especially during the past year. I will not have to go back very far, however, to find it hard work to get ratepayers enough pnesont at a trustee elec- tion to nominate cud second a candidate. It is too late to make the change this year but we can lea ready next year. Yours etc., Brussels, Aug. 24th, 1851, lt.trt:r.xan. GENERAL LIST.—Table boguet, Mag- gie Stewart, Jas Harrison.

A. POWELT..—Last Thursday, Friday and Saturday the New Garfield House had the opening :of their millinery show rooms for the fall of 1855. Tho proprietor went to a lot of trouble in decorating the place with lace curtains, silks, satins, flow. ors, feathers, flags, lamps, ere. and mare than ono compliment was paid him regard- ing the handsome appearance of the store. Miss Pretty had a nice display of hats, bonnets and all that appertains to this par- ti'oular line of business and without going into the detail of what was on exhibition we clay say rho work showed to good ad- vantage and proved that Miss Pretty is an adapt in the work of pleasing the public. This is rho opening of the second season in millinery and Mr Bowel/ is well satisfied. The show windows were very much ad- mired and woro deserving of praise. The Brussels band played for about an hour at ,9fr the opening ou Saturday evening, rd A. 10. Sutra.—The largo banner "Fall Millinery Opening hero to-day,"'was hung out from tho store of A. 10. Smith on Friday and Saturday and wending our way to the millinery room wo found hiss Lack had not been idle in getting a lot of millinery goods ready for exhibition. The ladies were there, of course, and tried on ahnost every hat and bonnet fa the place, so that they went away happy for once, Miss Lack needs no introduction to the• pnblio as her handiwork of the season just passed speaks for itself and a busy season is ex- pected. There aro several noticeable changes in the styles and shapes of hate but the now ones aro within bounds. Birds and feathers will bo worn largely as trimming. Mr. Smith had a aka display of velvets in his window., F. 0. Boesns.—Before the sight -seers wont home they visited F. C. Rogers' store and met with a warm reception. There were on tiro hat and bonnet stands goods that tempted morn than 0110 lady, and more than one wish was expressed for that little "duck" of a bonnot and that 'sweet looking' het. Miss Filer,. who holds her old posi- tion, evidently understands her business and is able to eater to the wants of tho ladies. This millinery hu•fnes.; has be - 30111e one of rho dtitnres of Ilt'n,,eli and people expect something good every year. Mr. Magnus had also a handsome display of dross goods and everything that is essential to make rho fair sex happy, :t big trade is counted on at ilio Dominion Rouse this fall. Mits. ALExeani:u.•--Iu addition to the die, play made at tlto exhibition grounds a lot of becoming shapes in hat:: awl Luunets wore tastefully trimmed and ren,ly for solo at tho Lion's store.
