Mowing Matele.,
The annual mowing match af the Hu
ron Farmers' and Mechanics' Associationa
took place on the farm of James Pick-
ard, Esq., in the village of Exeter, on
Wednesday last. The attendance of
spectators was fully as large as on for-
mer occasions. There were six. stagle
mowers and four combined machines on
the gtound. The work was well done
and the competition keen. The field was
in excellent condition, being level,
smooth, and free from stones and other
obstructions. The grass was a gooderep
for this yea.; although in sonie spots ill
wage little light. The weather through-
out ',the day was most agreeable, and
well suited for the 'occasion. In
evening, however, the rain commenced
to descend. in torrents, aied continued
uhtii nearly dark, making at unpleasant
for. visitors going home. Fortunately,
the match was nearly closed before the
rain commenced, so that it did not atoll
interfere with the work. The decision
of the ju.dges seemed ' to give satisfaction,
anel the naateh, no the whole was the
. .most successful which has yet been held.

Grand lamilWam Opening.
• The .Southern Emteneion of the Wel.
lington, Grey and 13t.uce Railway was
formally opened to Brussels on Tuesday
lest, Dominion Day. The occasion was
one which will long be remembered, not
by the people of Brussels alone, but
by those of the whole northern country.
The opening of this railway will signal-
-lee the commencement of a new era of
prosperity in this section of country,
and will open up new sources of trade
.and comnaerce -which cannot fail to add
to the wealth and. prosperity of the en-
tire -people.
-The village waa handsomely decorated
with flags, banners, arches and ever-
greens. The min arch extended across
Main street frona Mr. Leckie's store to
Hall's Hotel. Oa the top of the arch, in
handsome letters, was the word. " _Pro-
gress.' t. Suspended from the centre, and
surrounded by a wreath of evergreens,
were, the letters, " If. G. cf.: B. R. and
on one side "Stephenson" and ",..1-attle8
•Watt."=- Opposite the tame of Stephen
.son was "Adam Brown.," and opposite
James Watt, "ilicGiverin." Over the -
bridge, crossing the river, between the
business portion of the village and the
station was another areh of evergreens,
on vehIch- was a large banner, bearing
the word" Welcome." Thus b'anclsome-
ly 'decorated, the thriving village pre-
sented an imposing and -attractive ap-
pearance, well calculated to inspire the
admiration of visitors. •
At an early hour in the forenoon the
stream of pleasure seekers came -flowing
in, until about -11 o'clock, when the streets
were lined -with a living mass, all im-
patiently waiting to gain a sight of the
iron horse, many of the juvenile portion,
probably for the first tlme. ,
.They were not long kept in euspOnse,
for about 12 o'clock the shrillewhistle of
the engine was heard, and a general
stampede was made for the station. The
-pioneer train, containing the Preeident
arid Directors of the road, accompanied
bt, many friends from Hamilton and
iatermediate stations halted for a
