chaser. The farm contains 50 acres and
was sold for $3.500. The land. is of
-moderately good quality, there is a
-small brick house, and the other build-
ings are middline. Considering its
proximity to Seaforth, we du not know
that the price is out of the way.
• BUTTER CoNVENTION.—An adjourned
mention°of the Butter Convention was
_held at01intons on Tuesday evening last,
and was well attended by delegates from
the various surrounding towns and vil-

ence to the seller, and the largest buyer
will have to pay the heaviest proportion
of the inspector's salary.
• NOT DEAD YET.—The gentleman al-
luded to in the following paragraph,
from a Cleveland paper, will still be re-
membered by many of our readers:
"Mr. D. L. Sills was the next speaker.
Just as he had commenced, Company
D. Fifth Ward torchbearers arrived and.
filed into the wigwam, and at the sug-
gestion of the speaker the boys of the
gallant Fifth received.. three hearty
cheers. Mr. Sills then proceeded in a
humorous, lively and racy manner, his
remarks being frequently applauded.
He concluded by proposing three cheers
for Horace Greeley and. B. Gratz Brown,
which were given witlaa wilL"
No AUDIENCE. —The lecture announced
last week for Tuesday evening by Mr.
Tames McLachlan, on "Canadian Patri-
otism," under the auspices of the
Mechanics' -Institute, was not delivered,
owing to, the lack of a sufficient audience,
there being only ten or a dozen persons
present. The stormy and unfavorable
evening, no doubt, kept many away
who would otherwise have been present.
Webelleve Mr. McLachlan intends de-
livering the same lecture on the evening
of Wednesday next, when, we trust,
our citizens will turn out in large num-
bers ahd give him a good audience. The
keturd- is On a most important and. in-
teresting subject, which will be treated
in an abIe mannle,r. We feel confident
that no person who will attend will be-
grudge the time spent in
listening to it.
.
CHICAGO OATS. —Mr. Seegmiller, of
the Seaforth Oatmeal Mills, this week
received. a cargo of 20,LQI bushels of
oats, which he had purchased in Chicago:
Owingato the lack of deliveries on the
market here, he was tillable to procure
enough to keep his mill runnina, and
was consequently forced to look ° else-
where for a supply. These oats- are
equal in quality to the ordinary run of
Canadian oats, and Mr. Seegmiller in-
forms us that he can lay them down here
for about31 cents per bushel, whereas
on the market he would have to pay at
leust 40 cents. Oats hare been an un-
usually prolific crop in the West this
season, and if our dealers import them
to any great extent; the price of those of
our own production will' be very mate-
rially lessened. •

ing to Dr. Scott, of this place, died of
epizootic last week. • Nearly every -horse
in the villageand vicinity are suffering
from the disease, but this is the only
fatal case we have heard of.
HOLLOWEEN. Some of the usual
pranks were played around the village
on Holloween. Some of the tricks play-
ed were most reprehensible, and it would
be a good thing_for the community if the
perpetrators could be severely punished
for the mischief they committed.
SAD ACCIDENT. —A. sad accident oc
curred in this village last Thursday even-
ing about seven o'clock. A little boy,,
about two years old, son of Mr. Thorne
Redmond, blacksmith, while playing in
the house, overturned a lamp full of
burning fluid, which was burning on the
table near him. The lamp was broken,
and. the fluid taking fire soon enveloped
the boy in the flames. , The boy's mother,
who was m the house at the time, natur-
ally made every endeavor to save him,
but her efforts, and, those of Mr. Red-
mond (wbo was working near the house),
only succeeded in quenching the flames
when it was too late to save the boy's
life. He was burned, so severely that he
only lingered. until i about 12 o'clock..
Mr. aneMrs. Redmond were both bulli-
ed pretty severely, and it was only by
the strenuous exertions of Mr. Redmond
and Mr. Charles Herbert that the house
was saved from the flames. The sad
event has cast a gloOm over the entire.
community, and aroused • the keenest
sympathy for the afflicted parents in the
loss of their only child.

gaged as their teacher for the ensuing

$350 per annum.
Blyth.
Frng.—The shingle mill in the village
of Blyth, owned by Messrs. Wilson °&
Rath, was destroyed by fire Tuesday
morning. The fire was first discovered
in the engine room between'. five and
six o'clock. It spread with great rapid-
ity to the rest of the mill, and contin-
-
ued burning for about two hours when
the frame fell. • All the machinery ex-
cept the boiler is injured. This is the
second, time the mill on the same place
has been destroyed by fire. It was in-
sured. in the Waterloo Mutual Insurance
Company for $1,300. • The cause of the
fire is unknown.
Grey.
PLOWING MATH.—The Grey Plowing
Match was held on Thursday, Oct. 31, on
the farm of Mr. Samuel Slemmon, near
the- Town Plot of Grey. The weather
was everything that could be wished for,
the sun being out nearly the whole day,
which made it very pleasant. At 9:30
A. M., the time appointed, twelve plows
started. The quantity to be plowed was
one-third of an acre, and the time al-
lowed' 5i hours, but, on account of so
many of the horses being affected by the
prevalent distemper, the time was ex-
tended half an hour. • As it was, how-
ever, all the competitors were finished
some 40 minutes ahead of time. The
plowing, ou the whole, was not as good
as might have been expected, considering
the class of plowmen which competed.
In fact, it was by no means first class.
The work done by the boys, making al-
lowance for their brief experience, was
far abead of that done by the men. The
boy, Thomas McLauchlan, who carried
off the first prize in this class did very
good work, indeed. This was the third.
match at which he plowed this fall, and
carried off the first prize at each. The
second prize in this elass was carried off
by a little boy named. Thomas Forsyth.
We may well call him little, aie he is
only 38 inches high and about 80 pounds
in. weight, but he did ,big work—work
that was hard. to beat, even by the first-
class men. The classes for boys and sec-
ond-class tplownien ought, we think, to
be much more encouraged at plowing
matchee than they are now. Better in-
ducements should be held out to bring
young plowmen into competition with
each other. is the rising generation
which should be looked to a little more
in this metter. At plowing matches,
generally, the best prizes are certied ofl
every. year by a class of men who have
been good plowmen for year, but :whose
work tp-day is no better than. it was
years -ago. At 12 o'clock, Ore field
committee and. judges sat dowitp an ex-
cellent dinner, provided by Mr. Slem-
mon, and in the evening, after the prizes
had been paid out, the plowmen, were
also entertained. The following is the
prize list:

son • 2d; — McKereher ; 3d, Alexander.

ANNIVERSARY. — The anniversary of
the -Wesleyan Methodist Sunday School
was held in the school house on the Fifth
• Concession of Grey, on Wed.nesday, Oct.
30. The afternoon was very fine, which
added greatly to the enjoyment of schol-
ars and _visitors. The school numbers
about 75 Children, and is under the su-
perintendence of Mr. Samuel Ames, to.
whom great credit is due for the able
mariner in which he has performed his
- duties. During the afternoon, several
recitations were given by the children.
Tea wah served at 4 o'clock, after which
there were againseveral recitations, and
also music by the Ainleyville Wesleyan
Methodist choir, which kindly gave their
services' for the occasion. Thanks are
due Miss Morris for bringing her organ,

and Miss Pearson. During the evening
the overplus of provisions was sold. The
proceeds of the entertainment am 'minted
to about $35, Which will be devoted to
getting' a new library for the school.
The ladies of the neighborhood supplied
the good things for the tea, which, for
quantity and quality, did them great
credit.

. SAD BEREAVEMENT. --We regret - to
learn that our late ,respected towesman,
Mr. Roger Saunders, engineer - at the
Mitchell Foundry for several years past,
has met with another bereavement in the
loss of his eldest thild, a fine little girl:
of .bout 7 or 8 years. It is .only a month
since Mr. Saunders' home in . Mitchell I
was gladdened b the presence of an al- ,
• fectionate wife -nd three healthy chilS
dren. • His you eest child was taken ill
with diphtheria and died, and a- few days
after the mother fell a victim to the
same disease. Stricken with - grief and
his home made desolate, Mr. Saunders
left the scene ot his misfortunes, ire order
to puttlie two remaining childreriunder
the care of their grandmother; The sad
intelligence now corces that another child
has died, and that the third and last is
prostrated by the same fearful malady. •
ACCIDENT. —An unfsrtunate accident
occurred at Carlingford, in the, township
of Fullerton, about Seven miles- fjom
Mitchell, on the 5th inst. A number of
• bois were engaged in shooting squirrels,
and among them the only son of IN illiam
DaNidson, Esq., Reeve, a boy ' of 10 or
12 years. • Yoning Davidson, it is sup-
posed, left his !gun at full welt, while
loaded., and when standing close to Mr.
Hamilton, a relfitive of his own, it acci-
dentally went off, the shot ent/ring Da-
vidson's arm above the elbow and driving
the full charge, shot and wadding, as
well as the coat and shirt sleeves, into
the wound, and carrying the whole up,
under the -skin, close to the shoulder
joint, and out behind the arm bone, a
portion of the shot penetrating -his arm
and scalp. Dr. Dunsmore, who is at-
tending -him, reports the ease critical. as
it is difficult to tell whether some shot
may not have gone under the collar bone,
at all events, the injury around the
shoulder joint renders the case critical.
The Fifth of November at
Oranbrook. '
The anniversary of the gunpowder
plot Was - celebrated ia Cranbrook on
Tuesday last, the 5th of November.
The following Lodges were present : Ain-
leyville No. 774, Walton No. 251, Ethel
No. 632, Cranbrook No. 1,086. After
parading through the principal, streets,
the Lodges • assembled for dmner in
Tuck's Hall, 'Where a bountiful spread
was provided them, and servednp in ex-
cellent style, reflecting credit: on Mr.
Tuck's skill as a caterer to the public
wants. Having done ample justice to
the good. thmgs provided and fully satis-
fied the wants of the inner man, the ta-
bles were removed and the meeting called
to order by eleeting Brother • Thomas
English, of Ainleyville, to the Chair.
Brother English, in assuming . the
chair, made a brief address, remarking
that it would be unnecessary to request
theni to maintain order, as order and de-
corum- were always _characteristic of the
gatherings of the Order.
Brother It. W. Tuck, W. M. ' No.
1,086, gave a graphic description of the
origin, progress and collapse of the cele-
brated gunpowder plot, and expressed
his pleasure at so many being present.
Brother Mooney, D. M. No. 774,
was not used to . public speaking, but
took great interest in the cause of Or-
angeism, and was pleased . to meet the
brethren once more in social converse.
Brother A. Hunter, Secretary of No.
1,086, did not anticipate being called
upon to make 11 speech,. and was there-
fore unprepared. He, on a former occa-
sion, had heard a respected, brother
make the remark that orators, in deliv-
ering their maiden speeches, 'spmetimes
were effected with a fluttering in the re-
gion of the vest' pocket. This ;was his
feeling at the present moment. As other
speakers who were better versed in the
. working of the Order than he was were
waiting to address them, he Would re-
tire in their favor. . 1
Brother Welsh,W. M. No. 632, was
much pleased to meet the brethren on
this occasion and hope 1 there might be
many such meetings. (He gav& a lucid
and. instructive address on the respec-
tive duties of Orangemen to the brethren
and the_world at large. 1
Brother Keifer, Secretary No. 632,
• said the cause was dear to 110 heart.
He described the workings of the papacy,
the sale of indulgences and thelworship
of images, and alluded. to the p oneness
of ritualistic churches to adopt t4ie forms
and. ceremonies of the Romish Church.
In conclusion, he exhorted his bearers as
,.,
Orangemen, as men and as Christians to
follow the teachings of the Scriptures.
' Brother Morrison, P. D. M., ,Walton,
was pleased to see that the apologies of
the former speakers were so 'well re-
ceived, and as the time to be occupied
was limited, he woulki not detain. the
meeting longer, when such good material
was lying in reserve.
Brother J. W. Kerr, after relating sev-
eral humorous anecdotes said he became
an Orangeman in 1837. He was brought
up in a hot bed of Popery, where out of
a population of 3,000 there were only 14
Protestants. He trUsted that the bonds
of fOrangeism would never be !broken,
but that we would always continue to
present a firm. and unvarying front to
defy the inroads of the enemy. In con-
clusion, we should not forget that true
happiness which a simple and Christian
charity imparts. "
Brother Gerry, C. NL, in a neat and
forcible speech mentionei the remarkable
growth of the Orange tree and that it
was evidently bearing good fruit, he
li
spoke of thel obnoxious Party Proces-
sions Act in Ireland. Drangenen, he
said, were ever ready to defeud their
Queen and country, and in the event of
an invasion by tFenians, the Brethren
would be found in the foremost ranks.
He fully described the working of the
Grand Lodge, els° the benevolence of
the Oorcler, giving many instances,
among them that of Brother Shepherd, a
blind man, who was enabied to purchase
a comfortable borne through the exertion
of his brethren, We are ' sorry that we
are unable to give a more ctimplete re-
port of Brother Gerry's speech. He
spoke an hour and a half and wag listen-
ed to by the large assembly with wrapt
attention. . .
After cheers for the Queen, Brother
Gerry and Brother Kerr, the tneetine
was disinis,sed. 0
Overstocked Pastures.
To the Editor of the Huron -Expositor.
I observe in your issue of last week, a
letter from Mr. Malcolm, of the Rodger-
ville Cheese Factory, giving an account
of a visit to the cheese factories in New
York State. In the course of :his re-
marks, Mr. Malcolnl informs us that ale
though we have superior soil for pasture,
our averegre per cow is not much more
than half the average on the other
side. He assigns as the reason, our pas-.
tures being overstocked, I agree with
him that there may be some truth in the
statement, but I do not believe that is
the only cause of the deficiency, and as
I would be glad .to see that and kindred
subjects discussl for public information,
I will feel, greatly obliged if you .will
grant the use ef your columns for that
purpose. I do not presume that I am
qualified to enlighten the farmers of

object is to advance certain theories,

Letter from an 'Old Seaforthite.
,To the Editor of the 11114'012 Expositor.
NEklt DUNVILLE, Oct 27, 1872.
Thinking I was not making rich fast
enough in Seaforth, I went to try my for-
tune on the railroad. at Ainleyville. On
the 14t1u October the works there stop-
ped, and some fifty of us navvies were
transported by rail from Palmerton to
Dunville, and after ten miles' travel we
were dumped into a tamarack marsh or
bog, the water tesembling the hquid
from manure. We are -beyond the pale
of civilization '• the church bells are never
d
hear ; priest. or minister never seen,
newspapers not to be had. One female
was observed at a distance, and several
men of us mounted on stump to feast
our optics on the female form divine.
Cats and dogs in this neighborhood have
the fever and ague. We have $1 50 a
day. Some men make full time, some
half time, and others no time at all. No
medicines are required, as tbe putrid
water acts ae a powerful purgative. Ap-
ples are abundant ; buckwheat the staple
crop • distilled damnation,' 35 cents a
quarttwo miles distant. It has rained
Friday, Saturday and to -day, Sunday,
and it is aid to rain all the year round.
This section of the Air Line will be fin-
ished this year, when Mr. Hendrie's men
will be removed to the Hamilton and
Port.Dover Railroad.

-- A charivari took place last week at
the house of a farmer living between Galt
