No eloehi Mr. Mannine's generosity will be kindly remembered by "the boys." A VOLUNTEER IN F ORM E R. —The Star aays that a Bruce -Volunteer while in -camp' at Goclerich, being determined to Make both ends meet, commenced the work of an informer by laying inforrna- bens against AlesSys. Callaway, Perk, Martin and Johnstbn, for breach of the • 11Cir law. DERTAKING.—Mr. M. Robertson, Cseeinet-maker of this village, having purchased Mr. Thomas • Bell's hearse, intenda hereafter to make, undertaking a speciality- in his business. Mr. Robert- son will attend_ to ell cases in this line prernptly, efficiently, and on the Most rezisonable terms. • Eitreat HILL,—The work of repairing Bridge Hill, dea,ding into Goderich, has been let by the County Engineer to Messrs. B. Trainer and. T. Hood, of that town for $575. We trust that this hill will be repaired in such a mannerthat no further grants will be respired for it for some time to come. BREAKING SHADE TREES.—We have heard several of our villagers complain- ing lately of having young shade trees broken off by unruly boys. This is too bad,,and it is vary provoking after go- ing to the trouble and expense cif plant- ing trees to have thent ruthlessly de- stroyed. We would warn those lads who are so misc1iievously7 inclined, that if • found out, they can and will be severe- ly punished. • Lenan, POTATO ES. —M r. SaMuel Harris, o Seaforth, showed us on Tuesday last, • a peck of early rose • potatoes, the e,ield of two hills, the largest of which measures eleven inches m circumference. Me. Harris would like to see the Maw who can beat this. Mr.Carlano has also' some very fine specimens of early rose' potatoes in his garden which he has; been using for two weeks. • - - Tut; VOLTINTEERS. — The, Seaforth -Volunteers retuthed from Goderich on Saturday last. They looked consider- ably better than when they went 'may, having got new un fornee •while they were on service. We are informed that that while on duty, all conducted' them- selves in •a manner alike creditable to themselvem and to theplace from whence they came. . Just -E FROST'S. —The hard frost y- of Thursday last, a Week ago, has done considerable damage both. in town arid weary. Potatoes evitich were growing on -low land have. beau 'almost entirely cleared off ;"* Corn, too, has in many in- stances be -en ruined. All serts of vines have been also out off. On high_ lamb the potatoes have been. but little injured, and we have not hoard that any iujury hae`been done to grain crop. PRBSENTATION .7—We learn -that on Saturday la,et, before the 33rd Battalion! was d ismissed, Al aj or C'el cm an, on be -I half of the non-cmmissioned officers and men of the Seaforth Company, presented their Lieutenant, John Wilson, witle,e handsonie regulation sword and belt' as a' mark el their appreciation of him as an officer and gentleman. 'We trust Lieut.

At!tlie inquest the Coroner, Dr. Reeve, remarked in ad- dressing the jury, that this Was • the third case -of fatal accident whieh had occurred within. a very short, tittle, which could be:traced to the same cause—the habit chooshig ides and. running ranee, so cemmon at aisings. •The cus- tom was one which °((really inereaSed the amount of risk anddanger necessarily • attending the raising of heavy building., and should be eutirely done away with.

He registered- hi name in the books of a first-class hotel and prepared to enjoy, city life.

We generally make it rule to collect bills of this descriptior at the dboa, on the evening of the enter tainment, but on this occasion we wer led to depart from our rule by the re- puted resPectaltility of Mr- 'Raiford ex pecting that he Would honorably settl his bill before Ile left.

BASE BL.—Thi long looked for 1 match between the ' Shoo .Fly" Club of Wroxeter and. the 'Maitland '1 Club of this place came off o Dominion Day on the grounds of the I ter, and rebnited in a victory for the 'ft'hoo Flies" Their victory is every qu tionable one,•how- over. The "Shoo' J'1" pitcher delivered unfair balls, and thb umpire, not being very well up in the es of the game, refused. to call them One of the regula- tion base ball rul s say, "No match game shall' be cell te ered as regular if any of the rules of t e geme be violated by either of the con e ting clubs, wheth- - ere by mutual con itt or otherwise." The rules of the gam were violated, and therefore the "Mai 1 ds" contend that the game goes for thing. Before the game commenced t e Ainaeyville players objected to the Wr x ter pitcher's style of delivery, and att mpted to get Mr. Cameron, of the Seale th " Stars" chosen umpire, but the " Sh o Flies" would not listen to this, so rath r thanlet the game drop l Ainleyville gas, in. The "Malt - laude" admit being adly beaten in a. game resembling the old style of base belle but still coils der themselves a match for the Wro -eter players in a prop r game. • The p eying was poor cn both sides. Paulin earned_ to be the best player of the" hoo Flies"—phys- ically and morally,-- nd made some nice fly catches-. Of the "Maitlands," Sig - gins' made some rretty catches, and Stewart did some ood throwing, but the throwing was generally very wild. The lot owing is the score i MAITLAND. , • 51100 FLY-. 0. It. 0.
