A SHOW PAPER. -The greater portion
of our space is taken up this week with

INCORPORATION. -We understand that,
OR account of a portion of the residents
of Egmondsille having petitioned the
Government not to incorporate that vil-
lage with Seaforth, the Government
have refused. to do so, unless a counter
petiticn containing signatures represent-
ing a larger amount of property than the
other were forwarded. Such a petition,
it seems, could not be obtained, and the
Council of Seaforth, have, consequently,
withdrawn the application to have Eg-
mondville incorporated with Seaforth,
and have forwarded a new application to
have Seaforth incorporated as a town
without Egmondville. We fear the peo-
ple of Eg,mondielle will regret, when it
is too late, the action they have taken.
They have lost an opportunity of weedy
benefiting their village which may not
again offer in a hurry.
PERSONAL.- We are glad to learn that
Mr. George Eyvel, formerly of Wroxeter,
has obtained a situation on the l'arliae
mentary reportorial steff qf the Gioba:
Mr. Ey-vel is a clever young man and a
good stenographer, and will be a valu-
able acquisition to the Globe's staff.
-Mr. R. Ferguson, who for several
years has been engaged as teacher of the
Roxborough school, McKillop, has ten-
dered his _resignation of that position,
and has accepted a situation as assis-
tant editor of the Stratford Reacon. Mr.
Fera°nsoresloss will be much regretted in
theRoxborough section, as both parents
and pupils were much attached to him -
The pupils of the school, on the occasion
of his leaving, presented him with Cham-
bersEncyclopedia as a souvenir of their
regard. Mr. Andrew Cowan, of Morris -
bank, is Mr. Ferguson's successor.

Manitoba about a fortnight ago. I
Pickford made quite an extensive tour 9f
the Prairie Province, and eXpresseh him-
self as hikhly pleased with the country.
-We understand that Mr. Pickford pr
poses to endeavor to organize a olonfr
for eettlement in Manitoba. The colon
would probablyinclude from 100 o 12
families, and Mr. Pickford it in n eoti.
tion for the seeming of two tow shis
as a basis of operations. The system cf
emigrating in colonies has many 1.dvai
tagese and parties who design to becom
settlers in Manitoba might do well- t
conamunicate with Mr. Pickford.

PIC -NIC AND PRESENTATION. Th
Cranlaroole Sunday School pic-nic cam
off on Thursday, Sept. 19. A th
weather was not very fine, it dil not
pass off as well as it might have done
had it been pleasant. The pic-n c was
to begin at 1 1'. M., but on acco ut of
the ram a great many did not get there
until 5 o'clock. After they hadj done
ample justice to the good things which
were set before them, Rev. Mr. one&
of Brussels, was called to the chant. Thp
time -was occupied by vocal music froth.
Mr. Dey and his class,,, dialogues f orn a
few of the scholars, and addresse froni
Rev. Mr. Bodle, Mr. Dey and Mr. II
Sperling. • Wheu the addresses wer
over, Miss M. Leckie, on behalf f the
ladies, read a most' excellent as dress',
and presented Mr. Dey with a be utiftd
gold watch chain as a token of the love
and respect for him. Mr. Dey•• ade a
,
very. syMpathetie .and touching reply.
To encourage the love of natural his-
toryeMr. had lardmieed to give „a
prize to the boy and girl who gathered
the greatest number of: different of dif-
lerent kinds of plants The boy that
succeeded in collecting the greatest num-
ber was John Knight, he number being
134, and the girl who succeed-
ed • in collecting the greatest
number was • Mary ; Patterson, the
number being 52. All seemed to go
away very well satisfied, although the
rain made it rather disagreeable. Mr.
Dey his now gone to Montreal to
finish his course at College.
Wroxeter.
RAILWAY. -The work on the Toronto,
Grey and BrueeRailwaY is being rapidly
pushed on, the tails beMg laid to within
a shert distance of 1.11:yeireter and Gorrie
stations, and the energetic contractors,
Robinson Bros., expect to have a train
running from that etation for the accom-
modation of passenger' ,who infend to be
present at the Reform demonstration, to
take place at liarriston, on Oct. 8. The
ballasting in Minto is nearly completed,
and, when running, the Toronto, Grey and
Bruce will supply a wait long and badly
felt by the farnaers and the inhabitants
of the neighboring townehips in general.
Instead of having to them their grain
and other produce over 20 miles as bd-
fore, they will have a market almost at
their doors. The village of Wroxeter,
being situated.on a bend of the Toronto,
Grey and Bruce, which here takes a turn
to the north, is most advantageously
situated for the reception of the trade of
the surrounding country. The unsup-
pliecl tract of country tia the south and
west will doubtless talee advantage of
the direct route of the Toronto, Grey
and Bruce to ship its freight by it, and
as Wroxeter would be the nearest sta-
tion, that village will, therefore, receive
the benefit of the large amount of traffic
which will pass through , it on its way to
the station. The trade of the North.
will mostly go by Teeswater, Plifford
and Wroxeter, and as trade rarely goes
backwards on a' railway, the larger por-
tion will come to Wroxeter.
NEW STORE. -Mr. James' Young, of
this place, and Mr. Hearn, formerly of
Wingham, inteed to open out a new store
in this village.
Usborne.
• SQUIRREL HUNT. -The annual Lum-
ley squirrel hunt took p ce ou Monday,
Sept. 21. The captains this year were
Messrs.. Thomas and Tann. The two
parties met at Lumley about daylight in
the morning, and inuned ately set out to
scour the country in every direction in
search of game. The day being fine and
game plenty, they were Very successful.
In the evening, when they met again,
it was found that Ceptain Thomas'
party scored 5,100 and Captain -Trann's
4,500, giving a majorityfor the former of.
600 points. The sportsmen then- sae
down to an excellent supper, after which
the day's amusement was wound up
with a social dance, which was well at-
tended.
Exeter .!
[FROM THE TIMES.]
THE COLLECTORSHIP. -The Exeter vil-
lage Council are becoming extravagant.
They have engaged a collector at the
enormous salary of nothing: The man
who works for nothing and boards him-
self should become fut.
THE NEW Sosoc. The new school
building in Exeter is really a fine struc-
ture, having four large rooms below, and
three above. The second story is reach-
ed from inidwaY in the building by as-
cending either one or the other of two
flights of heavy oaken stairs which lead
to the right and left. At the top is the
hat -room. A large and spacious room is
formed in the second story, which will
be used for a time a.s a reception room.
The building reflects ceedit on the con-
tractor, ,Mr. Ross. .
A NEW -STREET. -A movement is now
on foot for the purchase of the Keddy
lot, north of Mr. Broderick's store. It
is to be used by the corporation as a
street; this is a much needed conveni-
ence, and we are glad that the matter
has been taken in hand, for the distance
between the two streets now in existence
is too great. We understand the lot
in question can be purchas- ed for $1,000.
A petition fs in circulation asking the
Council to grant about $400 of the suni
required for the purchase, and private
individuals gearantee the rest.
THE Some Reie-inee Snow. -There is
every prospect of the South Riding show,
which is to be held in Exeter on Monday
and Tuesday next, being the best ever
held in -Huron. The number of entries
will be large, and the exhibition of stock,
&c., will be unsurpassed in quality. The
staunch farmers of this community right-
ly feel proud of the display at their show.
in music, there will be vast competition.
It is thought that no less than five brass
bands will be in competition -the God-
erich, Clinton, Winchelsea, Zurich and
Exeter. Several organ companies will
be represented. So may- it be.
Howick.
COUNCIL MEErING. - The Howick
Municipal Council met at Wroxeter on
Sept. 16. Members. all present; the
Reeve in the chair. Minutes oflast
meeting read end approved. By-laws
No. 7 and 8 read -and passed. In the
matter of William Earngey's road, re-
