The matter to be considered is of the most vital importance to all having an inter- est in Seaford). ; a general attendance of our merehants and business men, as well -as of citizens generally, is therefore very - desirable: SERIOUS ACCIDENT .-011 aturday might last, a boy of the name of Herbert fete's, aged. 15 years, who has been for same time working -with Thomas Govan - look, Esq„ of McKillo1, mete with a serious accident which resulted in the fracture of the thigh hone. The boy was thrown from one of Ma Govenlock's horses while going at full glilop. After -the accident, a messenger Was dispatch- ed for his father, Dr. Peters, of Ainley- -Title, who arrived early; on 'dandily morning, and called en Dr. Campbell, of tteaforth, to assist him, and these two medical men set the fracture, and at last accounts the boy was doing as 'well as could be expeeted after such a severe ac- , cident.

There Were three very neatly worked and handsome gentlemen's shirts, and we are sere the jtitAges must have had consider- able difficulty to determine which ofthem. was the most deserviaig of a- prize. A beed basket, a cone -work basket, a rustic besket and a bead. hanging basket were very neat and displayed much taste and' attracted very general admiration. The cone -Work and rustic baskets were real beauties: A minia,ture house, evithtflower garden attaehed, was deserving of par- ticular. notice, - and must hltve best 'the maker a great amount of labor. There was a magnificently worked gentleman's scarf in Berlin wool, which on a cold day would prove exceedingly serviceable as well as ornamental. There was an im-. mense amount of fancy fringe, tatting and crochet week, all of which was well executed and deserving of praise. There were also two specimens cit very pretty crystal painting. There waSa work basket and sofa -cushion of Berl'n wool work I rained, on velvet, which 1 oked well and were rnost creditable speci lens of work- mapship. A lady's silk jacket, embroi- dered, was particularly handsome and well executed. There were two very pretty embroidered children's .dresses. The display of home-made socks, stock- ings, hose and mitts, was very good, and such as to prove that the ladies of the village- and vicinity are, adepts at -the :mote substaptial and useful as well as the fancy and ornamental kinds of needle work., There were alS 3 some 'eery fine specimens of home-made yarn, and a number of handsome rag mats. ' In'addi- tion to the above there was a sofacushion, an ottoman, and a sofa -pillow caner and tidy, in Berlin wool, and a fancy knitted tidy, . all of which were fine specimens, and deserving of special com- mendation. The several specimens of embroidery on muslin were such as would be difficult to beat. There were many. other articles which we would like to -notice; -did. time and. spice permit, but we have already exceeded our pre- scribed 'annuls., and must- conclude. - • We would here desire to tender our thapks to the Secretary of the Society, Mr. Stewart, for his uniform kindness, and his reaelinesa to furnish all required information. We trust that his benign eountenance _may never have. cause to grow gloomy, and that his prosperity in lifeanay continue to advance as rapidly as does that of the Society he so efficient- ly serves. , The following is the PRIZE :UST : HP-e8E:-4.-:13rood mare baying suckled a foal in 1870, lst John Broadfoot, 2(1. .

Gorrie„ on Wednesday, Oct. 4th, mkt was in every reepect a complete success i It was alto- gether the most successful exhibitioa held. by the Society; a very good proof that the new arrangement by which the Society agrees to hold their yearly shows alternately at Wroxeter and Gorrie, will not result, as was anticipated by some, indessenMg the interest in the Township Show, but will rather tend to an oppe- site effect. The weather was all that could be desired, and as. a natural conse- quence, the crowd in. attendance was un- usually large. The Inside . Department o.f the Show was held in the commodious Drill Shed of the. Howick Volunteer Company -a . building well adapted for the purpose. We intended noticing the articles- in the different departmen-ts that attracted most attention, or were most deserving ol praise, but, cannot do so for want of time. -Suffice it to say that every department was well represented, and the Howick Agricultural Society may congratulate themselves on the rapidly inereaeing excellende of their Fall Shows.

The latest in this line occurred last week ; the hero being a gallant youth. in the employ of armer in Hallett - the • heroine, a da •ighter of the -aforesaid faemer. As yo mg folks are very apt to do, antler SU li circumstaaces, this gallant swain be ame exceedingly enamored of the yo mg lady, and the yoang lady, judging -by the sequel, became just as highly en- amored of him. But, sad to relate, the mg lady's " papa' was a very • umo- m• rtic cid gentleman, and not desiring thi- young Mall as his son-in-law, -did not scr iple to tell him so in words decidedly 11410 ant e forcible than elegant. Pleading explanation were of no avail % ; a" was mexorable. But the pair - we e bound to be spliced ; so they re - sol ed that if they could not do so with pa consent, they would do sowithout it so n elopement was agreed upon Early - las Saturday morning they left the pa -- ren al roof, leaving a note for the " old - ma ," saying than they had. gone to - Go( erich on a trip, ared would be back in few days. We did not -ascertain wh t "pa"said,' when he reacl this a but certain ib is, that in double qiu‘k time he hal his fastestlorse. and bes buggy hitched up, ready -4) pursue the runaways. He did not go to Goder- ich exactly, ; "pa was not so easily fooled. He ascertained at different toll gates the route they had taken, and. act'ng npon the information received, ar- rived in a very excited' state at John - stem 's Hotel, Wroxeter, the temporary healquarters of the pair of whom be was in earch. The would-be bridegromie had meanwhile gone po Leechville, to ot the license, and. was absent when the old Gentleman arrived. The interview bet veen the father and daughtee is said to ave been " stroeg " in thee highest deg ee. The -result was, that after con- • sid rable coaxihg and threatening, the rep ntent fair one was indute1l to ac - con pally her angry father, her gallant knieht not being present, to assist her - in maintaining a hostile position. When he arrived and found the expected cup, of bliss so unexpectedly dashed from his lips he -well, the fact of _the Matter is, we need not attempt to describe the 1 scef e ; in the language of novels, "it is 1119 easily imagined. than described."

Owin to e failure of the "Unions" iii - secur ng their ramther, only eight men playe 1 on ea•ch side. Notwittestanding this ( ifficulty, the playing was a credit to b th sides, and plainly showed that 'clubs formed. in rural districts are not to be looked on with the distainful con- desce aim - with which clubs confined withi 1 town limits sometimes profess to regar them. If either of tbeee della (the ilorrisbank or 15M011S) N%0111d prae- tice nore they might prove formidable rivah to others that hold a more elevat- ed p sition in base ball ranks. This -victor y was gainecl by the Morrisbank club, by a score of 39 to 19. This is the • secon 1 defeat sustained by the " Idnious.” Mr. ;eorge Eyvel, of Wroxeter, acted as ur pire and gave general. satisfaction.
