ACCIDENTS FROM THE STORM. - During
the storm Thomson's mill dam was car-
ried away. The water rose 10 feet
over the top of the wall of the dam, be-
fore it went off.—The old. dredge was
raised out of the Lake where it went
last spring, and came on shore about
two miles north of the river. The river
is now open and from 10 to 20 feet of
water inside.—Part of the roof of Hall's
barn was blown down. a-- Fences and
trees 'fell all round, - -Anthony. Bell's
barn was completely destroyed; fit only
for the stove. Anthony Says "he's not
sorry; it will do for kindling -wood all
winter." I hear he is only a tenant.
That Makes some diffierence.—Alexan-
der Marks' schooner is all right.
Seaforth Salt.
'To the Editor of the Huron Eryositor. ,
DEAR SIR: believe that there is r
some prejudice on the part of pork pack -
era against our Canadian salt, for curing
meat, and, as there nothing like facts to
remove unfounded prejudices, I would
like you to publish the following: Last Now is the tinae t purchase

is an extensive provision merchant of

test for himself the qualities of our Can-
adian pork :and Canadiansalt He had
a quantity of bacon cured and packed YEARS PRESENTS,
here with Seaforth salt, and. now writes
me as fellows :
"The bacon I cured at Seaforth with
"Seaforth salt has turned. out splendid—
"equal to any we euro this country,

He concludes by giving an order for a
certain quantity, to be sent every two
weeks or so. This is, I think, Mr. Ed.-

qualities of our salt whenlproperly used.

Letter from the Market 1 Clerk.
To the Editor of the Huron Eapcisitor.
In last week's issue of THE EXPOSITOR
there appeared a letter, signed! "Rate-
payer," charging me with beink a spece-
lator in the market, and. wit* offering
unfair competition against those wishing
to buy there. In reply I would state
that there is nothing in the 4y -law de-
fining the duties of Market Clerk, either
expressed or understood, by which he is
forbidden to be a buyer on th Market,
and the person signing himse f 'Rate
payer" should be better posteet before he
accuses me Of overstepping My duties.
I have never purchased any small articles
on the Market, SO that what "Rate-
payer" says regarcling my "running tip"
fowls, &ce, is quite untrue, With re-
gard to whatever, additional competition
I may occasion, I have always under-
stood, and yet believe, that the more
competition there is the better, and.
the more trade would be drawn to the
village. Hoping this will he satisfactory
to "Ratepayer," I remain, &c.,

TO Tom Katt, Esq.
Oh, how could you jest on so touching a
theme,—
So rudely distrust that young couple's
sweet dream,
Of love and economy blended.
'Twere kinder by far, had. the run of the
bar,
Been, as well as the wine glass, extended.
Reflect for one.moment They've start-
ed in life, ;
He's been, gone and done it, and taken
awtifee—
Andhlife ef a bachelor ended.
And how conld you jest at those lovers
Wheof art'
nmusic and. painting appealed to
each heart, '
With the love of the beautiful there;
And how could you jest at their saving a
shilling,
When without fees the Poor hostler
was ;Willing,
And s4t them away with a prayer.
Then, degenerate Dutchman; how could
you, Iask,
Thus stoop to perform so ignoble a task
As to scoff at so noble a pair?
