physically, the pu-
pile declaimed a number of comic recitations, in aplace
style which had the effect of causingthe majority
of listeners to "hold their sides." Short address

and the Rev. Mr. Gracey-after which the Darty

career of unmigled enjoyment Until their instincts

In proposing this toast the Chairman was partic-

out his remarks, which we regret that we cannot
give in full, He alluded to the great part the
Army and Navy of Britain had played ,in the his-
tory of th-e world in modern years, dwelt upon.
,the large share these two engines of power wield,
ea in the furtherance of civilization. The
triumphs of British- arms were he thought, wise-

was responded to with "three times three" and
" one cheer niore" for the volunteers. Song-
"The Red, White and Blue" Major Coleman
briefly aelthowledged the very -handsome manner
in which the toast had been proposed and. receiv-

volunteer force, of Canada, and felt satisfied that
,they would ever be found ready and willing to do
their duty. • •

would prove to be the largest bed of salt in Arne-

of this undertaking -we Oleg be proud to say
that we were first to recognize the public spirit of
our worthy guests and happy to meet them thus

su.ccess and cheer them- on to aefull ebmpletion of

tOaSt was received most heartily, the company all
joining in the song "For they are jolly good
fellows ' and cheering till they wade the roof

man rose and said : We thank you, 'indeed, r

DEAR &la -As the public press Is consi&rea
the medium for exposing public grievaeces, I
would claim a short space in your valuable Paper,
in order to place before the miblic, the Proceed -
singe of the South Huron Agricultural Society, in
corinection. with what was formetly known as the
" Kippen Mowing and. Reaping Society." These
matches owe their origin to a few individuals in
the vicinity of Kippen, and. have been 'conducted
successfully, -and acknowlekged. to lae the best
held it Ontario. for a nuniber of years ; and was
given into the hands of the S. B. Agricultural So -
ciety, for the simple reason that as A wee purelt
a branch of agriculture. they were the partici
that should conduct it . In giving it •over te
thein, we also gave them What funds remained in
our hands, to the enema ,of about $.29, and alas
'a dynametei 'which cost us $35, with the exprest
condition, that these matches were to be held an-
'nually, and when they failed. to do, so, the money
was to be returned, and they were to relinquish
their claim to the dynamiter. Now, Sir, . suet
were the conditions ; but what have those get.
tlemen done. At a meeting held at Shaw's Ho•
tel.,- Kippen, a, tow weeks ago, they deeidetito4old
no mowing or reaping matches this year; `but
they do not decide to return the money given
them, besides we think these men have armed
at a wrong conclusion in not •
holdmg these match-
es, as, I have only, to 'refer them to the large
number of people who attend them, at that busy
.
season of the year, toyconvnice them of the freely
• •
interest taken in,..them in, this locality. Now,
sir, we are not rOmmed to state our grievances
T
publicly. N't e hope these gentlemen. will explain
their conduct it the same naanner. We would
not have troubled you with this communication,
were itnot, that thepublicwereinterested. There
are very many who stbscribecl liberally in aup-
port of these matchea-that are very xnueh averse
•
to their money being used in aty other wey.
Probably these gentlemen may set up thefplea
that they are short of 'funds, and. that :these
matches are too exensive, but the secretary •of
. . . . _ , . .-
their association, who was •rormerlyour secretary,
..,
could inform them differently, for, as long as we
aondubted them, they were almost self -sustain-
. _
mg, we always had funds .on hand, m proof of
which, We were enabled to-giye into their haiku
d '' '
money an property -to the amount of $64. Hop-
.
mg we shall receive a reply from these gentle -
men, in your next issue, *-1•haye the pleasure of
remaining, your obedient savant; .
