Lee has. received a fresh Etock of gro- ceries, fraita and canned fish. His ad- vertisement announcing - the same came to hand too late for insertion this week. LECT (FRE. -The. lecture delivered under the auspices of the Seaforth Me- chanics' Institute, on Wednesday even- ing laat, on "Canadian Patriotism," by - Mr. McLachlan, was, as we anticipated, a most able one. The lecturer handled his subject in a masterly manner. THANKsGrvitta D&v.-Yesterdy; be- ing thanksgiving day, wag observed in I- town as a general holiday.

These ship- ments of oats will help materially to lessen the local demand for oats of Can- adian production. MORE BONUSES„ -It is stated that Goclerieh Township will be required to vote upon a. by-law granthig a bonus of 10,00O to assist. in the construction of the London, Huron and. Bruce Railway. We also hear that Tarnberty is expected to 'great a similar bonus. FIRE AT THE SCHOOL HOUSE. -On Saturday afternoon last the heating pipes from the furnace in the School House, by sorne means ignited the flooring in one of the rooms. Fortunately the fire was discovered in time to be extinguished without causing much damage. THE MARKET QUESTION. -TWO letters discussing this question will be found in another column. Wft are glad to find our remarks on the subject, two weeks ago, have so soon found an echo. • We will be glad to print .farther letters on the subject, if brief and pointed: If any - One has anythingeto say in favor of the system, his rent:arks woulci be in order now. DRAmAlToo-Museefee ENTER.T.a.tNarENT. -The entertainment last Monday even- ing,' under the auspices of the Ladies' Aid. Society, of St. Thomas' church, was a very pleasant and successful afflir. The readings by Mr. Room Kay were rendered with that gentleman's custom- ary ability and called forth the applause and hearty commendation of the audience. The several amateurs who assisted in the musical part of the eatertainment also gave the most entire satitfaction. It is to be hoped that, ahoula the Ladies' Aid Society give another entertainment at any time, they may be favored with less unpleasant weather than on Monday evening, and doubtless, they will have a crowded hall. _ THE EPIZOOTIC. -We are glad to state that the epidemic which,. for a time raged among the horses here has pretty near- ly subsided. Nearly all the horses in the village which have been affected have DOW either wholly recovered, or are recoverindrapidly. In the country there are Estill a few lingering eases, but there, too, the disease seems to have spent it- self. There have been but few fatal cases either in town or country, and these have been caused mainly through exposure and lack of care of the animals affected. Mr. D. McNaught, Veterinary Surgeon, of :this village, has won for himself laurels by his skillful and effective treatment of the disease. There is no doubt that, but for his at- tention , and thorough knowledge of the disease, there would have been many more -fatal cases. PUBLIC MERTINote-A public meeting of the ratepayers of the village is to be held in the Town Rai1, on Tuesday everting next, for thepurpose of receiving and considering the eport of the cora- nate of the Council! on the fire -engine question. We would deSire to impress upon our citizens the importance of a large attendance at this meetina, and we trust that sorne steps will be Liken that will result in, placing our -village in a better positionin case of fire. We have so frequently alluded to this matter that we do not think it necessary to make any remarks on it now. However, we may state that at the recent fire in Park- hill, their new fire engines saved the en- tire village from destruction. The fire engines there:prevented the flames ignit- ing a large 'frame block of buildings, which, had it • caught fire, would have rendered it almost impossible to save the greater portion of the village. But, even m the saving of this one block, who will say that the engines did not pdy for themselves. ten tunes over? We certain.' ly think it is false economy to have our village exposed. to destruction as it is at the present time. MAGISTRATES' Cove:a-A rather . lapidated looking individual, giving his name as William Hamilton, was arrested on Saturday evening last for stealing a ' water -proof coat from Murray'e He was placed in the loek-up, where he. :spent Sunday, and on Monday morniag appeared before MagistratesiMeDougall and Beattie nagive an account of himself. As we learned from the evidence a young man named Cluff had hung upon a pinlin the hall of Murray's Hotel a new water- proof coat. The prisoner had been hang- ing round the bar -room for some time, and, watching his opportunity, nabbed the coat and started down street with it. When hear Ross" Hotel he took off an old ragged coat which he had on -which he is saidlo have stolen also-aed de- posited it under the sidewalk, and donnecl the new covering-, After thus clothing hu ell he returned up street again bath -ad not gone far until he was „overhauled by Constable Lusby who was looking for him. He was taken back to Murray's Hotel by the constable, when the owner of the coat identified it as his. The coat was aleo identified by Mr. Jamieson, who had sold it to 111r. Cluff a few days pre- viously. At the trial the prisoner did not deny the theft, but pleaded that he was "beastly drunk" and did. not know what he was doing. This plea was not sufficient to satisfy the magistrates of his innocence, so, they committed him to jail to stena his trial. The prisoner said that he had been working all summer for Mn James McLean; near Kippen, and for Mr. Wm. Wilson, of Hay, and that he had come to town direct from Mr. McLean's on Saturday morning. He also affirmed that he had never' been drunk in his life before, and that he .wae- tempted to sin on, this occasion by a far- mer with whom he was riding into town, who had a jug in his waggon. The ap- pearance of the individual would scarcely Justify the court in swallowing the first part of this statement without consider- able reservation. NEW MILLINERY SHOP. -A S Will be seen by card elsewhere, Mrs. Grey has opened a new millinery and. dressmaking establishment in the rooms nearly op- posite the Farmers' store. Having en- gaged the services of a first-class 'dress- maker, she is prepared to give all neces- sary attention to work entrusted to her. LoNnoN COMMERCIAL, COLLEGE. -We direct the attention of those who wish to obtain a first-class business education . to the advertisement of the London Com- mercial College. and Telegraphic Insti- tute. This institution has been in suc- cessful operation for a nuinber of • years, and. many of the young en of our coun- try have received at it a training which has enabled them to ra k among • the first of oar business men. . • THE CLINTON BY-LA.W.-The by-law granting $10,000 additional bonus to the London, Huron and Bruce Railway, by the.village of Clinton, was oarried almost unanimously last Friday, only one vote being recorded against it. This makes a total of $20,000 - given in aid of the scheme. If our Clinton neighbors keep on increasing their liabilities at the same ratio they have been piling them up for the -past three years, they will Soon have a perfect paradise to live in, that is, if the luxury of high taxation is one of the ingredients requisite for paradisical ex- istence. THE BUTTER INSPECTION. -On Monday morning last, Mr. Cash commenced his duties as Butter Inspector. We are glad to learn that the new system works aatis- factorily- both to the merchant and farm- er. A considerable amount of butter has come in during the week, and all interested seemed to be perfectly satisfied with the decisions of the. inspector, and the working of the system. We have heard complaint among the fermata that the merchants did not publish th0 names of those who agreed. to buy the \butter upon the brand of the inspector, so that when they went to sell their butter they ,might know Where to go with it to get the highest price. This, however, is no fault of the systein, and can easily be remedied. As an instance of the benefit which the seller derives from this sys- tem, we may mention that on Tuesday last Mr. llenry Hamilton, of the Four- teenth concession of McKillop; brought to town eight firkins of butter. He took his butter to the Inspector and had it branded. Seven of the firkins stood No. 1, andtheeighth No. 2. He sold his but- ter to Messrs. Beatty & Co., and at the current rate, he received $5.50 more for it than he would have received had he sold it on the old system. A CASE FOR THE COASIDER A TION OF THE AUTHORITIES. -We learn. that a - woman with' seven small children has been sojourning foe several weeks past in the woods, south-west 4f the village, a short distance from Grey, Sperling & Co.'s salt works. They are in the most deplorably destitute condition, having nothingto shelter them but a few boards and pieces of bark set up against the fence, under which they crawl for pro. tection from wet and cold. When dis- covered a week or two ago, the children were in ahnost a famished condition from. exposure and hunger. Since then a few humane persons in the village have been sending them occasional supplies of , provisions. It seems that heretofore the womaft has borne a bad character, and has been driv.en from several houses in which she had taken shelter, until at ast she was compelled -to take refuge in the !Woods, as above stated., But, no matter what her character may be, she and her chileiren should not be alloWed to perish either from exposure to the weather or. from hunger. They Should be taken in charge of by the ma. thorities and properly cared for. We be- lieve. -they belong to the township of Tuckersmith, and we are sure that the authorities of that township --who usual- ly treat their poor SO humanely -will at once attend to this naatter, when the particulars are made known to them, and -offer the necessary relief. It is not right that, in a Christian community, young and helpless children, or even an erring woman, should be left -to perish. [C. R. CoorEE, Ainleyville, Agent for the Ex- POSITOB Newspaper and Job Printing -Office.] THE BUTTER QUESTION'. ---A meeting of all the merchants and dealers in but- ter in Ainleyville took place at Arm.strongs Hotel, on Thursday afternoon, 7th inst. to hear the report of the dele- gates who had attended the Butter Con- vention held at Clinton, the Tuesday previous. The meeting, after hearing the report of the delegates, unaniniously agreed to adopt the rules as revised and passed at the Clinton Convention, and that they would strictly adhere to the same, on and after Monday, llth inst. The meeting then appointed Mr. Charles Wright as their inspector: THE IssrEeTiNe of all butter offered -for saAe in the village, commenced last Monday, and with it a great deal of grumbling an dissatisfaction on the part of some sellers. The merchants and all the m mbers of the Butter Con- vention were rst abused, and then the poorl Inspect° came in for his share. The fnspector, however, will do his duty, abuse or no buse. If the merchants and others wil not buy butter unless in- spected, in a 's1iort tune, when.people get, used to the system, it will give general satisfaction, not to the buyers only, but to the farmers as well. It will be just about the same, in the case of butter, as . it was when the discount was put onAm- erican silver. INcORPORATIOX.--A meeting of the freeholders and ratepayers ofthe village af Ainleyville was had last Saturday, at Armstrong's Hotel, to take into con- sideration m-hether it would be advisable to have the village incOrporated. The meeting was well attended, and a large number expressed their opinions on the matter. It was moved and seconded 1- - that this roeeting deem it expedient to have the village incorporated, whieh was passed unanimously, there not being one hand held up against it. The follow-- ing coramittee was then appointed to take the preliminary steps in the matter: N. M. Livingstone, B. Gerry, J. Leckie,' J. W. Kerr, 'Dr. Holmes, P. Thomson, C. R. Cooper. J. W. Kerr was appoint- ed' Chairman, and C. R. Cooper Secretary of Committee. Wroxeter. [GsonGE Errs', Wroteter, agent for the Ex- Posrron Newspaper and Job Printing Office.] GOING TO THF LU413DR WOODS. - Messrs. John Griffith, John Millen, Jas. Millen' Andrew Evaps and James Rit- chie ofthe township of Turnberry, start- ed. last Wednesday foe. the Michigan lumber woods. Messrs. Griffith, John Millen and Ritchie took teams with them.. There seems to be a general stampede among the young men for the Michigan lufabering districts this Fall. We don't mean "going to Michigan" in its figurative or matrimonial sense this time, A TowNseriE MILD IN HOWICK. -we learn that ambitious Leechville is bound to have the whole township of Howick and Leechville in particular benefitted by the erection of a township hall within its borders. Now, if the assembled wis- dom of Howick think a township hall a necessity, and if the township money bags contain enough a the "wherewith," to Justify -them in undertaking the mat- ter, we don't see whY it should not_ be put up; but if a majority of the town- ship council of Howick vote for the erec- tion of this edifeei in Leechvi]le, we would be inclined to think they are forgetting the oath they took when elected for they certainly would not be "doing justice to the whole township." Leeehville is not in the centre of the township; and a township hall is a build- ing that should be placed as near the centre of the township as possible, with- out trying to favor ,any village., The action of the Morris Council, in placing. -their Town Hall in the very centre of the township is worthy, of imitatilon by our Howick Councillors. We can scarce- ly believe that a majority of the Council will lend themselves to so unjust and un- reasonable a scheme. Hullett. RAILWAY BY-LAW. -At a meeting of the Council °lithe township of Hallett, held at Londesboro, on Friday last, it was resolved to submit a by-law to the ratepayers of the township, granting an additional bonus of $10,000 to the Lon- don, Huron and Bruce Railway. This, with the bonus which has already been grenteit by Hullett, will Make a ,bonus Of $25,000. This will be a pretty heavY bonus for a township situated as Hul- led is. FARM RENT ED. -Mr. William Snell, of Hallett, has rented his farm adjoining Kinburn. This is one of the finest farms in this ' section df the country. it con- tains 150 acres, 100 of 'which are cleared. The buildings are all good, and there is on the place a, good bearing orchard. The farm was rented for a term of five years, toi a gentleman from near Whitby, at an annual rental of $300. Mr. Snell has purcha,sed a farm in the towaship of Minte, where he intends removing. ANOTHER FARM SOLD. -Mr. Hopper Watson has sold his farm, Lot 14, Con. 8, Hullett, to Mr. Tyermaneof MoKillop. This farm contained 50 acres of choice land, and is well situated. We have not learned -the price paid. Tuckersmith. A Flow -LNG Waeo.-Mr. Jacnb Mc- Gee, of Tuckersmith, recently had a well dug in his barn yard which has turned. out to be Quite remarkablein its yield of water. Mr. McGee has been much in- eonvenieuced on his farm for some time for want of water, and. had sunk several wells without being able to reach a living, spring or get a lasting supply of water. At length he dug the one in question in his 'barn yard, and after reaching a depth of 30 feet he commenced to bore.' He had not bored over two or three feet when the water spurted out in great volume, and filled the well so rapidly that he coulcl. scarcely get it stoned up. The well -now keeps constantly full, with a stream running from it large enough to form quite a creek. .Mr. McGee says he considers his farm worth at least $1.000 more now than it was before the discovery of this flowing spring. . THOROUGHBRED STOCK. -.Mr. Michael Heffernan, of Tuckersmith, -recently pur- chased from .Mn George Graham. of Ful- lerton, a thoroughbred Leicester ram. This ram took first -premiums at the Stratford show .and other places where shown this year, and is described as a very superior animal. Zurich. . i NEW FLAX MILL. - Mr. Abraham Shantz, brother of Mr. B. Shantz, ; pro- prietor of the Seaforth. Flax Mill, has 'purchased one of the four acre iota sold by Mr. Knell, and intends erecting, as soon as the spring opens, a new fiaxMill. Mr. Shantz has already engaged a suf- ficient area of land in the vicinity to fur- nish flax for his mill. This establish- ment, when in operation, will addl ma- terially to the business advaneement of o-ur thriVing village. I i PROPERTY SOLD. -Mr. Knell last week Sold 30 acres of land adjoining th1 vil- lage of Zurich. Part of this land was dividecl into village lots contaiaing one- fifth of an acre each, and part into isark - lots containing four acres. The vipage lots sold Very readily and. realized en an average $30 per lot. The park lots were sold at an average of $50 per acre. - - AGRICULTURAL GROUNDS. -The Hay Branch Agricultural Society purchas d at Mr. Knell's sale one of his park lots, containing four acres, and intend sing it as an agricultural show groundi It will be enclosed with a siitable fence, and we doubt not that ere long a Com- modious hall will be erected the/eon. The land purchased is convenWntly situated, and is admirably adapted for the purpose for which- it will be used. Now that the society have shi able grounds, :their annual exhibitions wij1 be even more attractive than they lave hitherto been. Bauc9fle1el. BAILS% AV MEETIxo..-A meeting to further the interests of the -Loralion, Huron and Bruce Railway was heli1 in this village last Frilay evening. Mr. Dallas, of Tuckersmith, acted as C'hair- man. Hepointed out, in his usual c ear and foecible manner, the great advent4 ges to be derived from the buildiiet of su •11 a road through the centre of our county. Be ridiculed the idea of farmers gruidg- ing to pay a dollarOr two a year towards it. He showed them clearly how they lost ten times that amount by not having a competing road. He also pointed out to them the difference it would make in the price of their eaarms. Dr. Munro spoke at some length ou the benefits ac- eruing from railroad competition. He was followed by other speakers who were all in favor of imm.ediate and de- cisive action. .A committee was then appointed with'instructions to wait upon the councils of Stanley and Tuckersmith fa,nd urge upon them the necessity of 'submitting by-laws to the amount of $15,000 in each township. -New Era. 1 'To the Editor of the Huron Expositor. I Allow me, on behalf of a very large puro.ber of the people of Seaforth, to thank you for your very timely re-. Marks regarding the expediency of doing jaway with the market fees. You say 'very truly that instead of encouraging trade to come to us the market fee sys- tem, as at present conducted, is drawing it, away. Any man who mixes with the farmers. and knows. anything of their feelings in the matter must be convinced of this. The farming community, al- most without exception, regard the col- lection of Market fees'when they re- ceiye no conceivable advantage from them, as a legalized fraud. and there is not a farmer but, other things being equal, would drive several miles further o trade in a village where he would not aye to pay this obnoxious tax. I be- lieve, too, that a majority of our towns- eople would be glad to see the market ,fees removed, and the question only needs a little agitation to bring about that result: The season for electing ur Reeve and Councillors is coming on, nd &we are to have a free market next ear, now is the time to work for it. hear whispers of another contest for t e Reeveship, this, year. Now, instead carrying on this , contest entirely on ersonal grounds, as has been the I case itherto, let it be decided on the ground o Market or No Market. Let those in favor of a removal of the Market fees vlote for ,neither Reeve nor Councillor 'vrho will not pledge himself to do his tmost for their abrogation. If the eeveship and Councillorships be decided oi. this ground, I have sufficient faith in t e good sense of the electors of Seaforth i have no . fear of the result. Again than.king you for having opened the sub- ject, and hoping you may find room for these disjointed remarks, I remain yours, ANTI -MARKET. Seaforth, iNoy. 11; 1872. Market or No Market. Market Fees. To the Editor of the Huron Expositor. SIR, -I was much pleased to notice in ti¢e ExEosiToR of last week an article recommending your town authorities to a olish the market fees, I may say ti at your views OD this subject as ex- p eased in that article are widely ap- p oved of by the farmers in this section o the County, and I have no hesitatian it saying that should your advice be fol- lowed, the trade of your village would be very materially increased. Speaking f r myself, 1 may say that I live nearly e ually distant from . Mitchell, St. Marys and Seaforth, although St. Marys is perhaps a little the nearest. For the past two or three years the majority of my neighbors and myself, although we frequently visit Seaforth, dispose of the greater bulk of our produce, and do our trading principally in St. Marys and Mitchell. 13ut sir, I can tell you this, t1at were the 1 market fees remcved in S; aforth, and retained, in the other towns named, every bushel of our grain . would. find its way to: Seaforth, and where we dispose of our produce, we, as a rule, do the greater part of our other trading. From conversations I have had with friends in other sections of the County, I find that the same feeling gen- erally exists. It is not the amount that we have to pay in the Shape of market fees that we object to so much, although in the course of a year that, too, , • amounts to an item worthy of cousidera- tion-itis the principle. As you very correctly Say, we ' consider that the people of the towns have.. no right to -levy on us a tax, when we go to trade with them. When one of , your dealera comes along to buy our cattle or sheep We are too glad to see him and too anx- ious to sell to him to think of charging him a fee for the privilege of buying from ns. Your merchants and business men should be the same way with us. If we could see that we receive any benefit by paying this fee, we might not perhaps complain so much. But when the contrary is the case -when we have to pay the fee, be subjected to in- oonvenience and receive no belie& in re- turn, you must not be surprised that we fe 1 that the benefit is all on your side. I have heard some of your grain buyers say that the fees Were imposed for our benefit; that if there was no fee there wduld be no market, and if there was no market there would. not be so much competition. This is all bosh. From my own experience I can say that there was far more strife and competition among buyers in your town -before the market was established than there is now. The farmers cannot see the bene- fit which they receive from the market fee system. They -were perfectly sat- isfied with the old way. So that if the system has been established for their benefit, they canniit see that it has had th desired effect, and I trust that du mg future years yout town author- iti s may have the good sense not to off r to us benefits which we cannot ap- , pr ciate. Trusting that you will find a cm er for this in your valuable paper,. ant that your authorities will take the hi t in time,. and draw to ' their village tr de whichi,,.s. daily passing. by - them, ow ng to their foolish:market fee sys- te 1, I remain, yours truly, A FARMER.
