-to those who ha.t-e had to apse and re-
cross it. We db not know whether it is
the duty of the Council or of private ha-

If it is the Council, they should see to it
that it is repaired at once,' and if it is
private property, the Council should
' have it removed, or compel those to

raged furiously in the bush on the rear
of Mr. James Dickson's faern, and it was
only by the utmost exertions of Mr.
Dickson and his neighbors that it was
kept •within control. Large fires were
also burniiag inthe swamp near Efarpur-

on Monday night and Tuesday the long
wished for rain' and cool weather came;

TEMPERANCE FESTIVAL.-3.`fr.- Editor :
The Constance Lodge, 1.0.G.T., of this •
place, spent one of the most thoroughly
enjoyable seasons, en Wedeesday evening
of last week, that has yet fallen to our lot
since our organization ; and the whole
affair came to us in this wise Our good.
friends df the Royal Oak Temple, from
ith, and also those of the
ar, from Londesboro, had each
an intimation that they -woulhl
be with us on that occasion, and this, I
believe,withoutany previous axrange-
ment with each other to that effect
The coincidence was; a most happy one,
and. waS heightened in interest and inten-
sified when some three Or four members
of the Huron Temple, from your am-
bitious town of Seaforth, haying by some
means heard of what was about to take
place, promptly, fell into line, and right
efficiently completed the. interesting as-
semblage. After the usual routine busi-
ness of the lodge had been passed theeugh,
the entertainment of the meeting com-
menced, and our visiting friends had. to
certainty come well nrepa'red to con-
tribute their respective quotas. So that
what with select readings, recitations,
dialogues, humorous and sentimental
songs, enlivened by cheerfal strains of
music en the flutina, the whole inter-
spersed at proper intervals with short,
Pithy, pointed addresses of - the im-
promptu character, the interest was kept
up and even heightened throughout the
entire proceedings until the hour of 11
o'clock or perhaps a little, though a very
little, later, without an interruption or.
flaw, unless it ehould be claimed that
leaving off the social and intellectual, for
some 15 or 20 minutes, to attend to re-
plenishing the physical man, should be
claimed as an interrnotion. And where
from the advancing hours, and not by *
any means from dearth of entertaining
matter, it was deemed judicious to bring
the interview to a -close, it would be
• difficult to find a small gathering of about
one hundred persons, brothers and sisters

joyed. theraselves mote heartily thau did.
the Constance Lodge of Good Ternplars,
and those of other lodges that assembled
with -us. There were a few peculiarities
that were conspicuous by their absence
on that occasion. The first of note was,
we were thoroughly sociable and cheer-
ful without alcoholic stimulante ; the
second was, no person -was- rade enough
to introduce the Sickening, nauseating,
poisonous: fumes of tobacco, and the
third was, there was not a harsh note
struck. No word of bitterness for manu-
facturers or vendors of that which is the
cause of unutterable wretchedness to
millions of our race, but throughout
there wA a deep, hearty determination
eviiaced to prosecute to completion the
work in which we are engaged—until
prohibition, pure and simple, crowns our
effort. --Com,

ACCIDENT. —Last week, as Mr. Thos.
Ching was assisting a neighbor in build-
ing a stack, the ladder on which he -was
descending from the stack fell back-
wards, and had it not lodged against an
adjacent building, might have resulted
seriously for Mr. Ching. As it was he
was taken up insensible, having his spine
slightly injured, but we are happy to
state that he is now in a fair way, for
recovery.
