G. & 13. R. R., has passed in the: Township of Howick by a majority of 361. LIQUOR -INFORMERS, —Our quiet Tovinship was 'thrown into quite= ,excitement—especially thos.e • interested.—on the new's of some eight complaints -being lodged against tavern keepers, raid others; for selling liquor without licenses. • • DOMINION DAY. ---Lisadel is to celebrate' the anniversary of the Confederation of the various provinces into one Dominion, on the 1st of July• . F;rom the names on the posters we conclude there -Ishii be a grand affair. • CROPS . —We have taken a run through Howick and are pleased to state that the erops, as a whole, never looked better. The hay crop is most grand, and from all indications, the yield will be ahead • of last year. All spring crops are in a reraark- ably forward state WINGHAM E. R.—The surveyors of the T. B. & G. R. R., are expectedto pay us a visit about the latter part of this or the beginuing of the next week. • IairaoVaatENTS.—Mr. Wm. Bowers, is erecting a lax,„ae workshop on Front Street, into which he intends iemoving in a few 'weeks. Two merch- ants from Paisley have bought a village lot, an which they intend building a large brick store this summer. • At a meeting of the ratepayers in this village, it was unanimously agreed to build an additional class -room 24x30 ft., to the com- mon school building this • slimmer, the present class -room being wholly inadequate to accomo- date ihe large number Of pupils •attending this sehoo „1,10-,INESS. Business is considerably brisker than was during the spring months. Owing to the r ent rise in the gram market many farmers have commenced teasning out their wheat, which has been hoarded up in their granaries all winter, and as the sales of wheat are generally accompa- nied by the sale of goods, pur raerchants' faces are beginning to wear a less 'elongated ap- pearance. DOMINION DAY. —We intencl„ celebrating the natal day of our young Dominion, by holding a maronaoth pic-nic, on the flats of the Maitland, and as the site selected is ene of the most eligible, and clelightfui on the banks of the river, we feel confident that both old and young will be able to enjoy themselves to their hearts content. EXETER. • ExAttiNA.Tio..—An examinaticin of the schools of the Township •of Hay will be held at Zurich, on the 17th hist., commencing at 16 o'clock a. in. The teacher of each school is required to bring 10 of his most advanced pupils, who will be care- fully examined by teachers from the Township of ITsborne. , The pupils will be ,exaniined in the. several branches taught, such. • as, Reading, Writing, Arithumiic, Geography, Grammar, His- tory, Mensuration, Algebra, and. Geometry, etc. The examination will be conducted m writing, and at the close prizes will be given, eachpupil receiv- ing one. Mr. Bonis, L. S., will be present -and will have the chief management and responsibili- ty of the day's proceedings. The success and good results of these Township examinations are, in a very great measure, owing to the caro anci good management of the same. • REMOVALS .—Weare sorry to state that the Revd. Mr. Edwards, W. M. Minister, and the Revd. W. Hooper, B. C. Minister, are about to remove.fram this village ; • the former having re- m.ainedi on this circuit some three years, ancl the latter four. We are certain they leave behind them very many well-wishers, and lasting friends, whose most sincere hope is that their labours wherever they go may be crowned with success ; that their day of u.sefullness in proclaiming the glad tidings; the good news, may long continue, and that saccess and prosperity may be theirs till • the end of the chapter. . WEATHER. —The weather during the past iVeeivhas been rather pleasant, we have beenfa- voored with several beautiful showers of rain, which have done an immense amount of good to things in general. 4 BERNE. 4! - MR . EDITOR- —DEAR SIR, —If, by any possibili- ty, the engrossina cares of an editorial life should allow you a day of relaxation, I venture to sug- gest that you spend,it in making a trip to the -vil- lage of Berne, which, by reason of its distance from railways and leading roads, but not because of its lack of attractions, is 'almost a "Terra in- cognita" to the Canadian tourist. Suppose, then, by a fortunate combination of events, having ob tained the holiday and consented to folly my sug- gestion, -'you have proceeded on your journey as far as the village of Kippen. Here, your horse, if a sensible animal, requires a, little water, and, of course, you call at Mr. Shaw's. Being none the worse of your stay (in these days of Good-teraplar- ism one must be cautious in selecting words on certain topics) you direct your course to the west, ou the town line of Hay and Stanley, and passing through A tolerably good region, t length reach, about five -miles from the London read, an exten- sive morass, which, by the people of the neigh- bourhood, is emphatically styled "the big marhh. Where the road crosses it, the marsh is about a mile wide, and extending, as it does, clear across the Township of Hay, to the south, and pretty far into Stanley, on the north, you will readily perceive that it is a great deal too big, It has been a big difficulty to the settler, but yet it is not entirely without its attraetions. If you like fruit, here the cranberry ripens plentifully in its season : if you have a taste for music, and are endowed with a trifle of imagination, you may convert the chorus of the spring -time frogs into an immense troupe of clarkey minstrels, frantically pibking on the 'old banjo.". Before the railway penetrated the:woods of Huron, the settlers- to the westward of the marsh, did their marketing, principally, at Bayfield, but since that happy event, the tide has turned to Seaforth, necessitat- ing -the improvement of the road over the marsh. Accordingly you see it is gravelled within a short distanceof the eastern side. This has been done by local effort, with some assistance from Town. - ship funds, and will, it is said, be completed next winter. But meanwhile you have gained the eastern limit of the marsh, and, passing over a ridge of good farming land, you cross the "little Marsh," which resembles its big brother in every- thing but size, and drive triumphantly into the village of %Vaguer's Corner. The .neat little ham- let enjoying the foregoing title is pleasantly situ- ated on a considerable elevation, commanding an extensive and near view of the -two marshes, and •a distant prospect of the grand Teutonic centre of the County --Zurich. In Wagner's Corners the Germanic element predominates, and you are de- lighted with the honest and industrious appear- ance of the inhabitants, the great proportion of whom are cunning workmen in cloth and iron. You probably observe Mr. • Pluff's blacksmith shop in tull blast, and the rattle of the weaver's • shuttle serves to increase'the busy din. - The re. maincler of the people are principally engagedin - agricultural pursuits. Leaving you here to the hospitalities of Mr. Christian Zapfe, I promise to take up the wondrous talc" in a future issue. CRANBROOK. BREVITIES. —The heavy showers for the past • week have greatly- improved. • the appearance of the crops.—The hay crop promises an abundant yield,—Fruit prospects are considerably damaged. by frost.—Currants and goOseberties are almost destroyed by the grubs,—A few cases of scarlet fever are _reported in the eastern part of the Town- • ship.— The citizens of Ethel are making prepara- tions for a Pic-nic on Dominion Day. The Base Ball mania rages at Ainleyville; medical experts cannot relieve --the malady ; the Wroxeter club has • been called. in, but are 'somewhat dubious about . the:treatment. It is thought that the. Seaforth club couldilaaork a cure, but We believe a number of the boys are away at present. The " Exaosrron" has more than twice the circulation of any other -paper in this section. --Dominion • Day will be observed as a holiday here, and busi- ness , suspended. We hearkthere is to be a grand ball in the evening.—The salubrious location of this village, the hunting grounds in the vicinity, the facilities for fishing, bathing, etc.; supplied • by the Maitland, and the variety of amusements • which the place affords, cause many a resort here during the summer months.—There is. some talk of the villagers erecting a large sapatorium on the co-operative principle. The proposed site is • a beautiful grove on the bank of the liver. The scenery along this river is very fine and has awakened the muse of the poet in the following " Morning flowers bedecked with dairy ,drops, Ancient .elms aud towering pines. • The sugar tree whose .arcade bowers, • Are interspersed with wild grape vines, •From sylvan groves whose memory ever Wanders by the Maitland river. "WROXETER. • BASE BALL. 'L. -A- MatCh between the Ainleyville B. a.. Club and the "Maitland" .club, Wroxeter, will be played on the grounds of the latter on Saturday, the 18th June. • RECOVERY.—WC are happy to heaz that Mr. S. Hooper, who was dangerously gored, in Seaforth, •by a cow, this spring, has so far recovered as to be able to work-. . GET YOUR LICENSES. —We, are • informed that the following tavern keepers ..and .grocers were " hauled lip" 'before a magistrate.in Gorrie, for selling liquor without licenses : Jno. Colton, ho- tel keeper, -Wroxeter ; Jno. McLaughlan, c - Wm. Johnston, do ; Thos. McDonald, do; A. Veal, grocer, Wroxeter ; P. • F. • Carroll; do. ; • Gilmour, Belmore, and Gilmour, Gorrie. THEATRICAL. —It 18 very seldom that Wroxeter is favoured -with anything inathe shape of oper- atic entertainments, but last week wewere so highly favoured .as. to receive a visit from the cele- brated "Japanese W. G. Troupe," from Hamila: ton, under the able leadership of Col. 111cG--n. The way in which he acted that comic little Pan- tornine '-',The Presentation of the Mayor," was, certainly, highly artistic, and was highly appreci- ated by the audience. One of the "Stars of the Troupe" iendered, in a thrillug manner, the "Artful Electioneering Dodger," and was- also •loudly •applauded. The only thing that marred the pleasure . derivable from the entertainment, was the unavoidable absence of two of the princi- pal actors, who. with the intention of whiling -away the afternoon, had. gone on a fishing excur- sion. They glued•theniselves over .with a plenti- • ful supply of Dr. Kay's "Mosquito Preventa- tive," ancl waded into a "clear winding creek," with apparent impunity, and a gusto, worthy of old. - Izak Walton, but happening to get beyond their depth they got (not the wished for trout), but aleimine ducking. But the worst is to come, and though we shrink from the melancholy task of relating the sequel, still our dirtyl as a -truthful reporter, tells us to go • on.. After getting this damper to their feelings, they returned to their hotel in a rather forlorn condition, ' expecting no doubt to get a change of that useful article of male apparel, vulgarly known as pants. , But no such happy fate awaited:them, and they had to come at last --) the unwilling conclusion that they h ad .1 eft thc Sunday -go -to -meeting "pants" in the City of familton : and they had also to ac- cept the ira dignified position of going to bed to dry out." • With this single exception, every- . thing passed off pleasantly, and we hope if the Japanese W. G. Troupe visit Seaforth they will be well patronized. •o M. cKillop Council. •The Council met at Hannah's Tavern, May 21st, 1870,—the Reeve and all the members pres- ent—for the purpose of the revising and examin- ing the Assessment Rolls of the Township foa the present year, and other business of importance.
