FALL. WHEAT AND GRASS. -The Fail
Wheat in this and surrounding neig bor-

of the year, than it does at the pr sent
time. The fields where . it has KM
sown are now quite green and the gr und
is nicely covered. The blade also 1

have had a most refreshing e
upon the grass fields. Pastures, w
a few weeks ago were burned br
with the sun, and almost as bare
board, are now covered with a In. un-
- ant and beautiful coating of grass. IThe.
consequence is that stock has very
rapidly Unproved M condition, and will

A HORSE TRADE. -Some amusement
was caused on Main Street on Tuesday
last by a horse trade between a wander-
ing peddler or tinker and 'a farmer from
McKillop. The tinker -came to town
with his team early in the forenoon, and
left it standing on the street, arid went
to 'look for a trade. He "stumped"
several whom he thought might be will-
ing to swap, but without being able to
come to terms. At length he came acrose
thesfarinerreferred to, and struck a trade.
The harness was stripped from the horses
and they were exehanged from one Wago
to the other. In re•hitelling his horses,
was noticed that the tinker was 'in con
idera.ble haste, but the farmer either did
a
tot notice this, or if he noticed it paid no
heed, At length the tinker, through the
ctive assistance of his wife, who accem-
allied him, got his nags harnessed in and
hove off at full speed, and was soon lest
o view. The -farmer, after getting his
orses properly hitched, and duly admir-
ng his newly -acquired steed, and bem-
ratulatieg himself on the fine bargain
e had made, took up the reins, and cona-
laisantly steppiug into his vehicle, toak
is seat, and called on his horses to ad-
ance. While he was mounting into the
,agon and. 'preparing his seat -hie new
arse turned round his head. and silently
bserved proceeding& When the word
o'advanee was given. however, he was
ot prepared to comply, • but manifested
is desire to proceed. backwards. After
onsiderable coaxing -he allowed himself
eluctantly to be dragged off by his mate,
he farmer walking alongside the wagon,
igorously plying -tile whip, and, no
oubt, inwardly • vowing vengeance on
he cunning tinker who had so neatly
aimed off upon him a baulky horse.

A CIRCUS Row. -Unfortunately for
the good name of the village, and the
comfort of two or three parties, the
circus WAS not permitted to corim and go
without a serious fight. The facts ap-
pear to be these :--It has been the
custom of thecircuscompany to pay off
any employee on getting eb•unk. isnd the
paymaster was nettling with a few such
men when a misunderstandin arose !
which led some disturbance whichwould
have been confined to the parties. above I
interested, had not some over -zealous
officials interfered.- • Two or three vllage
constables, thinking to preserye the
peace, stepped forward. to quell the melee, '
but made matters worse, and one of them
got such a clubbing on the head as to
stretch him out msensible. To save
theineelves from further injury one party
beat a hasty retreat which put a stop
to further fighting. . We are hdppy to
say the injuries inflicted are not as seri-
ous as at first supposed—Neu, Era.
