Grand Social Pio-Nio. On Tuesday last the inhabitants of Carronbroole entertained the people of all the county round; at a grand social l ic-nic, of which kindliness net less than a thousand people accepted. The grounds selected for the day were the most desirable, and the refreshments, provided by the ladies, and others of the Village, were such as will ever establish their hospitable reputation with all present on the happy occasion. In the way of pleasure, everything had been arranged. Numberless. swings (lid faithful and unceasing duty the live- long day, and Broadagen's Band dis- - coursed music adapted to the occasion, while the "lively" indelged in the "'light fantastic." The pleasure -seek- ers owe a deep debt of gratitude to the citizens of Carronbrook generally, and their most hearty thanks are due to the. Committee of Management for their in- defatigable and disinterested exertions, which led to such a right royal day's enjoyment, LAST eyenirg , the Egruondvile Band -favoured the citizens of Seaforth gener- ally, and some particularly, with a - serenade, the EXPOSITOR having the Honor to be included in the latter. We are pleased to notice the marked im- provement in their performances, and wish them continued prosperity, kin checking the baneful. _influence of the traffic." "s THE PRESENT ASPECT" "Plainly indicates that every lover of his race should be 'up and doing.' For every Church' there are three or fcur Inns ; for one going to Church, there are four worshipping Bacchus. The licensed Inns are counteracting the in- fluence of the Gos pel, The Gospel is powerless over the ul of a drunkard. The obdurate heart of the tippler is in- capable of receiving the benign influ- ence of the Gospel. We -pray, ']ead u s not into to n tation,' yet every day temptation irrounds us, and we make little effort t banish it from our midst. - The tempting bowl is snatching the. brightest intellects in, the land, and dragging Ministers from the pulpit. it is bringing 3,000 drunkards annually, in Canada alone, to a drunk,ard's grave, to a sorrowful eternity. Should a plague afflict the' land and three thousand soils fall victims, the prayers of the country would ascend to Heaven to stay the scourge ; yet 3,000 die year- ly in Ontario from enteinperance,with- out a murmur. Delirium Tremens, Suicide, Homicide, and various-,acci, dents through drink, are disturbing so- ciety, breaking the family circle, and making havoc" in the Church of God. Parents, your children are in danger from this- evil ; Christians, you are los- ing the brightest ornaments of your church." SUSPECTED HORSE - THIEF.—Yester- day an Indian boy about 17 yegrs of tige, giving,his name as James Powlis, from Brantford, offered a gray horse with saddle .and bridle for sale in the streets, and- as he could not tell a very straight story he was .taken into custody- until enquilies couldbemade.

"HEFTY."—In the Mitchell Advocate report of the laying of the foundaton stone of St. Stephen Cbureh, at Leech- vi11e, it is said that "the stone was laid to the memory of St. Stephen, Protest- ant Martyr."

We shalt be glad to re- ceive a communication on any interest- ing and proper subject, from any cor- respondent, no matter how illiterate he may be, if the. production only give proof of sound judgement and common sense, for we consider the grossest piece of egotism an editor can be guilty of, is to reject a communication for no, other reason then that hat set forth in the letter above aloded to, via ramatica l errors. But we may as well tell the "Indignant correspondent" in advance, that if hisintended communications Scan provide ,nothing better than the pover- ty of wit, and the bastard humor' mani- fested in his indignant letter to our confrere, by the miserable attempt to disfigure our present orthography, he had better reserve his trash for his most obsequious friend of the.

Eureka !—The Editor, of the Signal. THE past week, with theexception of about one day, has been charming for harvest work, and we think that fully two-thirds of the Fall Wheat and. Barley crop is safely housed- tem - most sanguine hopes of the heavy crops promise to be fully realized. With the exception of Spring Wheat, which is sorely infested with midge, the aver-' age will be far t.evond that, of years. ' W E observe that the Goderich Mar- ket Fees were recently sold for the year for the sum of $996 ; only about $1,000 less than what is paid for those of Sea - forth ; hence the inference that. Goder- • ich does nearly hags much business as Seaford. Well ! Goderich is a sort of .a fashionable watering place, etc., etc., and of course is above vulgar Com- merce, ce, in the word of Arten us Ward, "Ruddy." uchly." MR. it. GovENlocx brought . to this office a handful of excellent Fall Wheat. There does not appear to be a single defect in the sample, and he expects the field from which it was gathered, to yield from forty to fifty bushels per .acre. As he intends getting it thresh- ed in time for seed, we have no doubt but that many will availthenisel yes of the opportunity of securing' itfor the Fall sowing.
