BASE BALL.- On Monday last the return match, between the " Huron" Club, of Goderich, and the " Union" Club, of Seaforth, was played on the grounds of the former,Iresulting in a vic- tory for the "Union," by one innings and fifteen runs. Wx have in this office a relic of Huron in th-e olden times, -in the shape of a mammoth elk horn. It was ploughed up on the farm of Mr. James Kerr, Mc.Killop • It came to us in a num- ber of pieces, but we have succeeded in wiring them together, and it now presents a rather for- midable appearance. WE have been talking about large apples for a week or two, potatoes now come in for a word. We have received from Mr. Robert McMillan, of Roxbourgla a, potatoe of the Prince Albert va- riety,' the greatest cirCumferance of which is 20 and I- inches, and least 9 and inches. Of course this is the largest potatoe in the Countyof Hui on. The success met with by the City of !Srandusky this season, has, we are informed, been so satis- factory that a company- intends, next year, to run three propellors to and from. Goderich-one to Saginaw and one to Detroit each clay. This would benefit both the owners and town, and we believe- merchants and manufacturers here would do their utmost to encourage the enterprise. - Signal. Lanoz. ! LARGER ! ! LARGEST !

As things have been rather quiet for the last few weeks, we have not had an oppertunity of giving many- nes s items from this village. But now, as the harvest i6 about over, the times are becoming more lively, with the continual rattle of waggons and carts; and the boys enjoying the rewa,rds of their hard summer's work. The weather here has been most excellent for the last week, A case of elopement occurred last Thursday evening. from the music hall of this place, The missing parties are two young ladies, whose absence has caused a deep regret to many of our yOung villagers. When last seen they were a feW miles north of this place, accompanied by two unknown persons, who had kindly volun- teered to assist them a few -miles on their jour- ney. 13ut on their way back they were over- heard, fitifully murmuring the following lines : " Oh never again, shall my bosom know joy, Orthe nightingale's song be in tune. For never, never more -with my truelove strey By the sweetsilver light of the moon." WROXETER. YOUNG,'THIEVES.-A.lad named Chas. Scott, aged about 14years, entered Mr. Veal's grocery one morning last week, and abstracted a purse with its contents (we did not hear the amount) which had been left beside a parcel by the owner Mrs. Doe]ierty. ,He went down to the Base ball ground, but as soon as the purse was missed he was. suspected, as he had been seen to enter the\ store. Mr. Thos. Playford then went down to where he was, and succeeded in getting him to hand over the missing property, though he stout- ly deniedthecharge when first accused Our village is becoming rather noted for this kind of thing, as we c -an recall. two orthree cases of "pet- ty larceny" which have occurred in Wroxeter within a very short time of each other, and all by young persons. We have hitherto refrained from making public the names of these offenders, but they are becoming of such frequent occurr- ence, that we deem it :but justice that ,the public should. be put on its guard. We hope that it -may-also prove a benefit to the offenders them- selves who receive no punishment but the dis- grace attendant on their crimes -for we can scarcely believe that:these young offenders are se hardened as to be lost to all sense of shame. It is astonishing the amount of juvenile depravety that exhibits iteelf in our streets without moles- tation. Drunkenness, rowdyism, profane 'and obscene language are consunon, and almost unno- ticed. Wroxeter-ifit keeps on at its present rate --will soon be able to claim the disgraceful distinction of being the "wickedest village in the county." 0.errea PEST. -We hear of several cases of this pest in this vicinity, but so far we have heard of no fatal cases. •ITetts --The potato rot has made its appear- ance in this neighborlicefid. -The Presbyterian Church and Manse is being painted. -Rev.

The present site of this new important little village was at first carefully selected by the shrewd a,nd adventurous pioneer of the Huron tract, who ap- pear to have foreseen, as it were, with a prophe- tic eye, the vast importance of the flourishing vil- lage now raised upou. its site. It is pleasantly situated on the gentle sloping banks of a beautiful stream, which, after wand- ing its course for miles through a luxuriant and well -wooded country, at length joins with the Mightier waters of the Maitland. It is alsosu , r - rounded on all sides by an almost unlimited ex - pence of highly productive lands, carefully tilled by an intelligent and industrious people, whose superior knowledqe in agricultural pursuits is cer- tainly surpassed.y few. Notwithstanding thesegreat advantages, Blythe was literally at a Stand still up to the; beginning of the present year, when it took one of those firm and decided steps Of advancement which seldom fail to ascepe the ilotice of the keen business inen, and the intelligent mechanic who are attracted into our midst, the moment they see the first marks of progress. Amongst the many flourishing business estab- lishments we notice in the Dry - Goods line are Messrs. D. B. McKinnon, It Holmes, and W. Drn nnnotiV, who, evidently seem to vie with each other for the superiority in selecting and pre- senting to the public gaze the richest display of the gandiest and most fascinating samples .•ixi- every variety of goods, which are welted to the peculiar necessities of their numerous customers, The Grocery line is not without its honourable representative in the rerson of Mr. M. F. Mc - C i on, who, from his invariably having on hind a fir Selection from the different varieties of an.gar, t a, spices, fruits, &c., enjoys the most ex- tensi e and liberal patronage of both the village and surrounding country. Mr. Jinkens, -besides dealing somewhat extensively in this important branch of trade, also provides the village with an abundant supply of excellent bread and all other articles belonging to a first-class bakery. 1 The caiTiage-makers, Mr. H. McTavish and Mr. 5 I Rogerson, have each turned out some excel - 8 lent specimens of their mechanical skill .in the 1 shape of waggons, buggies,' democrats, &c. and 4 these are no less skillfully ironed by any • of -, the - three blacksmiths; Messrs. H. MeQuarrie, M. Mc - 93 Kellar or J. Clarke, whose workmanship has long been known and frequently tested in this vicinity, Mr. Laurence, who hes just completed his large furniture store, has openrdup an extensive stock and is now prepared to compete successfully with any firm in this line. 1 -- 1 4 2 0 Me. P. Kelly is the proprietor of a lerge Grist 2 Mill and also a aw Mill, where immense quan- 2 titles of lumber of all kinde have been sawn this season. In the factory of Mr: Wm. Curtis may be seen the latest and most complete machinery for the manufacture of stoves, heading, &c., all in success - 1 0 1 1 5 ful operation. 2 Messrs. McQuarrie & Thobald are the own -- 2 ers of another factory, where an extensive busi- --- nese is carried on, in shingles on the first flat, and 23 wool -carding, weaving, elothdressing, &e,, on the 38 second flat. 81 Atter the, match a social supper was enjoyed by the two Clubs, and a number of their friends, at Foster's Hotel. M. I'. Hays, Esq., presided in his usual able manner. To facilitate the transaction of businesx the Montreal Telegraph Company has opened an office here, and up to the present time, a large number of despatches have been sent and received by our business men, who are glad to avail themselves of this great boon to the village. • HURON EXPOSITOR. Mn. EDITOR, -Dear Sir, -For the special be- nefit of the numerous readers of the EXPOSITOR, _ and our own gratification, we embrace the prive lege, (enjoyed by many inferior places to this) of writing you a few lines for publication. „ Our village is small and the people are very quiet, so we will not take up much i-oom in your valuable sheet, but proceed at once to business. Some yeaaa ago, with mach difficulty, we succeeded in. getting a Post office here, called Bushfield, situ- ated on Lot 11, -Con. 7. Morria. which is 5 miles from Blythe, 7 from A inleyville and 6 from Wal- ton. For many years there was but little busi- ness clone in this office, but as tune rolled on. the forest gradually fell, beautiful fields of grain ap- peared instead, our neighborhood became thickly settled, ani the wants of the peop_le grew more numerous. Two years ago J. J. Lynn started a general store, which was very much needed. Mr. Lynn keeps a good 'stook of goods, consisting of dry goods, ready -Made clothinichoots and shoes, groceries, hardware, &c. Be is doing a good bu- siness, of -which he is w'ell worthy., Mr. Reiland keeps a hotel, on the south corner, and is doing well. Proceeding north. 21 miles, we come to Brown's steam saw mill, which is well worthy of being no- ticed. 'Mr. Brown turns out a great cp.antity of lumber, shingles and laths, his shingles can scarce- ly be beaten in this county, if in any other, and he has sold 1,000 bundles sincethe month oiMay. The lath machine is quite a curiosity, it was man- ufactured, by Thomson & Williams of Mitchell, and works to perfection. North of Brown's mill 1,1 miles we come to C. - Wheeler's blacksmith shop. Fromthe size.of Mr. Wheeler's .shop, -one would think that he intend- ed that Belgrave should have been built. at ;this corner; however, he can get all the work he wants Two and a half -miles west brings us to the flour- ishing village of Belgra,ve. COUNCIL MEETINGS. . . ,Haaaerr.-A special 'meeting of the Municip- al Council of 'the Township of Hullett, was held at Londesborough, on Thursday theist inst., for the purpose of determiningwhatcourse to pursue relative to a law suit entered against the Town- ship by -Daniel McGregor, to recover the sum of .$1,020.00 for damages sustained on lot 6, eon. 4; by drift wood and ice being cut- away atbridge on. side road 5 and 6, con 5. All the members present. It was inoved by H Snell, seconded by J. Warwick. That the Reeve be authorized to take necessary steps to defend the suit against the Township by Daniel McGregor, and that the Treasurer supply him with necessary funds - Carried.
