1123 DOW been opened in the village of
'Lunch, and we learn that next week an-
other new office will be opened in Gerrie.

no doubt be remunerative to thecompany.
EARLY POTATOES. —Mr. Samuel Harris,
of this village, long noted aa being the
best potate grower M this neighborhood,

of his Early Rose variety. They are

PA NORAMA — Ni. Ho tvo rth 's grand.
panorama was exhibited ht the Town
Hall, on Thursdayand.Friday evenings,
elime 27th and. 28th. The paintings re-
present Ireland as it is, and France and
kternaany during the Franco-Prussiae
war. The paintings which represenathe
principal places in Irelaud are part of
acEiroy's panorama of Ireland, and are
'very correct. The transforrnation scene
was beautiful, and added greatly to the
en joym ent of the audience: The Mitch ell
Advocate finds fault with the "local
hits," and says -that it cannot recommend
the performance to the public. The only
reason that the editor of that paper had
Lor denouncing the performance is, we
;believe, that tlie audience enjoyed a 1 o
laugh at his expense. The songs and.
dances Were good, also "Barney's
Courtship."
Cenewr IN THE ACT.--Ou Friday last,
wlaile the clerk in. Mr. Thomas Lee's
grocery store, in this village, was engag-
ed in the cellar filling up a bag of pota-
toes for a customer, he heard the alarm -
bell of the cash drawer ring. As he had
left nO person in -the store he suspected
that all was not. right, and accordingly
made his way quietly up to the store.
:Upon arriving there, he found a man
leaning over the counter, and trying to
open the drawer. The clerk took the
man a prisoner to the cellar, and after
frightening him pretty badly allowed
halite go on his way, with a caution not
to return again upon pain of more serious
consequences. We understand the
would-be thief is.a Fienchman, who re-
sides in the township of McKillop.
MUSICAL ENTERTAINMENT AND LEC-
TURE. —As has previously been announc-
ed, the musical entertainthent under the
auspices of - the Canada Presbyterian
Church of this village -will take place ma
the evening of .Mondat next. In addi-
tion to Mr. Dalziel, of whom mention
has already been made, the services of
the Misses McTavish and Bay, of Clin-
ton, have been secured for the occasion.
Mr. Dalziel will also deliver a lecture ou
"Burns, and the Ballad Writers of Scot-
land," and Mr. Paltridge has consented
to allow the use of his organette. We
can promise all who will attend on this
occasion a rare musical andintellectual
treat, and we would specially recommend
as- many of our Scottish friends as can -
possibly make it convenient to -be present,
not to miss this opportunity of listening
to the " guid auld songs," which, above
all things else, can lighten the heart of a
Scotsman, and make him teel as if he
" were a boy again,"

WATERING THE STR.SETS. —A petition
was circulated on Tuesday last, and,
largely signed by the business men along
Main street, praying the Council to have
that street regularly watered so- as to
prevent the dust annoying the business
men and parties doing business thereon.
This petition was presented to the Coun-
cil at its last meeting, but that body re-
fused to take action, on it, as they have
not the power to levy a special rate on
the property along Maiii street for that
purpose, and thought it niejust to .use
the general funds -of the village for the
benefit principally of but a portion of the
inhabitants. We do net say but the
view taken .by the Council is 'a correct
Dee, hut we do certainly think that the
;silkiness Men along. Main street Should
take some steps to have this abominable
nuisance abated. For the past few days
the dust on this street has, at times,
been .fearful. Every time a vehicle
passes along, a, gust -of -wind blows,
vast cloud of dust Hue up, and is hurled
into every door and window. It not only
causes great damage to the business men
themselves by destroying their goods,
but is most unpleasant and offensive to
every perton who may lieve to pass.
along the street. A yery • tritling sub-
scription weekly from eaeh business mart
would create a fund sufficieetly large to
keep the street regularly and properly
•
follbwing horses were entered: Wm.
VanEgm.ond's Shoo Fly, D. McNaught's
Longfellow, and R. Grieves' Harry
Bassett. ].n this race Shoo Fly took two
straight heats,' winning the race, with
Hailer Bassett following closely behind
each heat. Longfellow was withdrawn
we the second. heat.
The third and last race wet a matched
trot between T. Bell.'s Gray Eagle, J.
Su.therland's Nettie, and Mr. MoLeod.'s
Captain Ewing, for a saddle and bridle.
This race was closely contested, and was
by far the most interesting of the day.
Nettie tr tted, by agreemeutei▪ n a skele-
ton wage , and the other two horses in
sulkies. 'he first heat was won by
Nettie, C' ptain Ewing coming in second
and Gray Eagle.third. The second heat
was ver closely contested. between
Nettie an Gray Eagle, Nettie passing
the line s ghtly in ad.vance- of her an-
tagonist This heat was declared void,
however. n account of Nettie's driver
having sh. uted, breaking up Gray Eagle,
and Gray agle's driver afterwarde run-
ning acres Nettie's track in front ofher.
The third heat was won also by Nettie,
Gray Eag e making a good second, and
Ca,ptain .E ving taking third place. This
closed the sports of the day.
TEMPERANCE PIG -IO..
In the fternooe a pic-nic under the
auspices the various temperance or-
ganization of the village was held in Mr.
James Be. ttie's Fete, to the North of
the villag . A very pleasantand sociable
afternoon Was spent •by those present.
The juveniles, of whom there were a
large number present, seemed to enjoy
themsel+e inunensely. After refresh-
ments tvar erved and got through with,
those Fresnit gathered around the plat-
form. Th chair was taken by Mr. Jas.
Beattie, Who called upon the choir to
giv6 a se ection of mesic. After this,
eloquent cldresses in the interests of
the tetnpe ance cause Were delivered by
Mr. Parro t, lecturer for the Independ-
ent Order of Good Templars, and 'Rev.
Mr. Benso , of Bothwell. At the con-
clusion of the addresses, amusements
were agai resumed, and were kept up
until a lat hour in the afternoon.
ST AWBERRY FESTIVAL.
In the e ening a strawberry festival
was given in the Methodist Episcopal
Church: fair attendance was preteut,
the neat li tle church being nearly filled..
After several pieces of mimic had been
given by Mr. Cline, Mr. Paltridge, Miss
Macd.onald. Miss Robertson and others,
Rev. Mr. 1 enson, of Bothwell, was intro-
duced and lelivered a lecthre. Mr. Ben-
son's remade -a were well suited to the oc-
casion and he day, were brief and point-
ed, and he d the attention of the audi-
ence durin their delivery. Following
the addres came more music, then the
strawberri s were circulated, then music
again, and the assembly dispersed.

\Dominion Day in Seaforth.
Dominion Day passed off rather quiet-
ly here: All the places of business were,
of course, closed, and the day was ob-
served as a geneial holiday. The attend-
ance of, country people Was not very
large, and all the people of the village
who could possibly get anything in the
shape of a " rig" to carry thern away,
availed themselves of the opportunity
whieh the holiday afforded, of leaving
our ddsty and heated streets behind, and
taking a- dee 'a enjoyment in the country.
For these, Bayfield seemed to be the fa-
vorite resort, awl inany of our citizens on
.Alonilay, repaired thence, and inhaled to
their pleasure and satisfaction the fresh
and cooling breezes. of Lake Huron. In
the vintage the peincipal attraction was
the races and athletic sports which took
place on the
RIDING .A.ND DRIVING PARK.
At about twelve o'clock, the gates of
the park were opened to -Visitors, -and
nctwithstanding the rather slim attend-
ance and the intense heet, of the day,
the games and ra,ces were vigorously con-
tested and crested considerable- amuse-
ment : • 'The first on the programme was
the athletie sports, and. in these con-
tests ensued with the 'following results :

EXAMNAVQ.N.—The examination of
the senior ana. junior departments of the
Wingham school will be held respective-
ly on Wednesd.ay and Thursday, the 1.0th
and llth inst.,—the former on Thursday
and the latter the day preceeding. Ex-
ercises to commence in both departments
at 9:30, A. M, and all who are interest-
ed. in the pregress of the school are cordi-
ally invited the occason.
A gentleman from Port Huron intends,
we believe, to start a fanning mill fac-
tory in Wingham.
THE ground for the Wingham station,
Wellington, Grey and Bruce Railway,
has at last been selected, on the east
side of the gravel road running from
Wingham to Teeswater, and not far from
theresidence of Mr. Sadler. The selec-
tion is a good one.
DOMINIoN DAY AND OTHER IMATTERS.
—We did not celebrate Dominion Day
Wingham this year. The reason was
we were all too busy improving and
bnildine up our rapidly rising and go-
ahead town. There are sixty buildings
in course ef erection—stores, dwelling -
houses and so on. Strangers are coining
in every day, and we have scarcely ac-
commodation enough, although our ho-
tel keepers have gone to considerable
expense in enlarging and refitting their
establishments. Mr. William Johnston
baying sold his hotel to Mr. Theobald,
of Blyth, we hear, is about erecting
a new oue. Mr. 13ra,y, late of Ainley-
ville, is at the head of a,, drug establish-
ment which would be 'it credit to any
large town. A large addition has been
made to the Winghain Foundry. Our
Post -Office has also been enlarged from
the small cooped -up place it formerly was
to an area of considerable comnioclious-
ness. We now receive our mail in the
evenings, yvhich is a great improvement
on having to wait for it till next morn-
ing. NEmO.

.ACCIDENT. —About two weeks ago an
accident occurred at a barn raising on
the farm of Mr. Peter Moir, of the town-
ship of Ueborne. While tke men were
engaged i4 raising a heavy bent, "shores"
were placed under it upon which to rest,
and thus take the weight off the men.
When the. bent was about eight feet
from the ground: and preparations were
being made to use the pike poles, the
"shores" which supported it gave way
and it fell to the ground with a fearful
crasb. Although at the time of the fall
the bent was surrounded by men, yet
strange to say all escaped uninjured ex-
cept one person. This person was Mr,
John Emery, of the township of Tuck-
ersmith, who was unable by some means
to escape from the, falling timber as speed-
ily as the others, and who received
severe injuries about the head. Although
he was immediately placed under medi•e
cal care, we regret to learn that his in-
juries are such that but little hopes are
entertained of his recovery.
SHODDY CLOTH. --There is at preesnt
a gang of shoddy cloth awindlers oper-
ating on the farming community of this
and adjoining toweships. They travel
inbuggies enter our houses with blend
smiles, carryiug a small parcel. This
they throw on the floor and open up, at
ethe seine time saying they are only going
'round taking orders, and if the good lady
would juot be kind enough to say what'elle wants the wagon will call around in
about a. week. There are samples of
good carpeting for 35 cents per yard,
cotton for 5 cents per yard, and so on,
everything else being in proportion.
The good. lady says how much of each
piece she will' take when the. wagon
comes round. Sharpy takes it all down,
and is about to leave, when suddenly he
remembers he has got a few pieces in his
buggy,—not anxious to sell, but, just to
accommodate, he will take them he
Now there is sufficient for three suite,
give hien $25 and you can have the
whole, aud as a general thing they talte
'whatever is offered. The cloth is not
worth the mekieg up, except, perhaps,
one piece out of three and the wagoe,
with the cheep carpeting and cottonS,
never comes iround. Farmers, bewail.
