BANEELTET SY:KAN.. A bankrupt stock of dry goods has been opened out in the Manchester House, John Logan's old stand. PEacarEs.----Peaches ba.ve been very plentiful in this vicinity this season. Good. fall peaches were selline on the street in Seaforth the other day for sixty cents a bushel. • Fran SN-Ow.—The first snow of the season fell on. Thursday last. The fall was so light, however, that the snow was almost uncliscernible. But it .was snow, nevertheless. Paowneo Mearof.—We understand that the South Huron Agricultural So- ciety have decided on holding a_ -County Plowing match this fall. The match will be held somewhere in the vicinity of Kippen' but the day has not yet been decided.upon. ' EISET n SALT.—The salt busines is again coinrnencing to •look up. The wholesale price has recently been raised to one dollar per barrel. This advance is occasioned, principally, by the increas- ed American demand for Canadian salt. The greater portion of the salt now manufactured in Goderich finds its way to the American market. • CitunclrAEN.

Church _of this village, on Wednesday evening last. The notice given of the lee -tare was very short, and the attendance was net very large.

O. litaMitchell, will be celebrated on the evening of Tuesday next, by a dineer and, ball, to take place in the Town Hall of that village. A good time will no doubt be had ; mad we dare say that many of the Seaforth Odd Fellows will avail themselves of the opportunity af- forded of uniting With their brethren of Bissell Lodge in their anniversary festi- vities. • • GooD BuTTEn.--A meeting of the merchants of deaforth was held -in Knox'a hotel on 'Wednesday evening last for the purpose of devising some means of im- proving the standard of batter offered fer saTe. Since so mach attention has been dew led to the manufacture of cheese in this County, the standard of butter has been very materially lowered,- and the result is that it is DOW almost impos- sible to get .good butter. it was resolv- ed t? call a, convention ei the butter deal- ers of theeCounty at an early day; and then endeavor, if posaible, to establieh some united plan of action which would result in compelling butter Makers to produce a better article, -or subject them to a diminutipn in price. • REEoEst DEstoNsmATioN.—We would again remind our readers of the Grand Reform Demonstration to be held at Seaforth, on Wednesday next, the 16th inst. An opportunity for hearing the leaders of the Reform i)arty will then be afforded, the like of which may not occur again for many- years. Every arrange- ment possible for the- comfort and con- venience of those wbo attend is being made by the committee. We would also advise our friends to attenl as early in the day as possible, that they may be in time to joia in the proceseion, which takes place; at 11. o'clock. The speaking *ill commence at 12 o'clock sharp. If the weather be favorable, we expect to see a.seerabled, the largest crowd ever brought together in the County of , - They then proceeded northwards, and (told another meal bait to a farmer near Ainleyeille, after which they went on into Ainleyville, where they disposed of the balance of their meal to a grocer' there. FromAinleyville they went to Wroxeter, where theeearrived on Saturday evening. After seeing the sights in Wroxeter, aud paying for their night's1 lodgings, their funds were about exhausted, so they eoncluded to tube their faces homeward once more. As above stated, they arriv- ed, in Seafoith. on Sunday night, wet, hangry and cold,' and very penitent. The horse was ,pretty well used up, and looked as if it had not received the kind- est treatment. BuSTNEss C1TANGE.--We, learn that Messrs. Charles Wilson and Andrew Young have purchased Mr. John Walsh's 'stock of groceries and liquors. Mr. [Wilson intends removing• his present 'stock to Mr. Walsh's stand, where the business will be carried on by himself and. Mr. Young. FeRE.—A fire occurred at Egmondville • on Friday morning, 4th inst., which • burned two dwelling houses belonging to Mr. John. Bowden, brickmaker. • The fire commeaced about 1 o'clock. Mrs. Bowden having been ironing late on Thursday night; left a fire in the stove, • and a pile of wood at the back of the stove is supposed to have. caught fire. Mr.. Bowden, on being awoke by one of the children crying for a drink, was nearly choked by the smoke and flames, -and before the family were awakened the roof was beginning to fall in. Very littie coulcl be saved, and in less than rei )lour nothing could be seen but the rains-, 'The lots, including buildings, furniture, bedclothes. money,. etc., is estimated at nearly $2,000. • Insured. for $600. There was a considerable sum of money burned. Mr. Bowden intends rebuilding. rorma CIIEEsE SHIPM EN T. e -Mr. Scott Robertson, of -the Seaforth eheese factory, shipped, on Saturday last, 1,300 tbox,es - of cheeee, worth about. $12,000. 4This,cheese was shipped direct to Liver- -pool and will be sold there for Mr. Rob- ertson. Messrs. _J. Ilickson & Co:, of the 13rucefield. cheese factory also made a very large shiproeut on the same day. During the rest summer there has been an immense amount cf cheese shipped from this county, and .we believe that the prices realized have been. most satis- factory and remunerative to the patrons of factories. A few yeas ago the greater part of the cheese used for home con- sumption_ had to be imported, now, however, we can, after supplying all home consumption, annually export a very large amount. Thi e change is cer- tainly a mot 'gratifying one. Root Crops Competition. The judges appointed by the Tucker - smith Branch Agricultural Society to examd examine anreport upon the root -crops entered with the Society for 'competition . have reported as follows : •• • , • Torten's. Best two acres, Henry Chesney, 960 bushels to the acre; 2d Appleton Elcoat 640 bushels t� the acre; 3d George Chesney, 544bushels to the acre. POTATOP,S. —Best half acre. potatoes, Honey Chesney, 2985 bushels to the acre ; 2(1 George Chesney, 288 bushels • to the acre; 3d Robert Elgie. 2021 bush- ele to the acre. CARROTO.—Best quarter acre carrots, Andrew Archibald, 1152 bushels to the acro; 2d. John Thomson, 949 bushels to the acre; 3d Henry Chesney, 821.bush- els to the acre.' • MA N GoaDs.—Tiest quarter acre - man. golds, Henry Chesney, 1,301 bushels to the acre. The judges report the ground which they examined to. be well cultivated,— clean and in geed order. Carrots gener- ally are a good- crop. Turnips are a fair average crop, although, owing to the dry weather, there are thefields which they examined Many vacant spots. They observed a marked improvement on tur- nips upon which plaster had been sown. Potatoes, generally, they found to be rather below an average, being thin in the ground, but of good quality. Man - golds are a good crop.' . jurams. — James. Scott; McKillop; Wm. Sproat,l'iackersmith . Wroxeter.
