. Blackwood's Letter
To ,the Editor of the, 1:11tim Expo itor.
A communieatiOn from :Mr. R. lack -
wood, Central School, Waterloo, lids
appears in .last Nyeoles issue, 9.ppa ently
seems to have been inspired by t ie ac-
tion taken by. tbe, Huron Teacher-' As-
sociation respecting' the Public chool
Inspector lor' Spiith Huron. He, how-
ever, soon shOwsh the real object - f his
letter bee disposing of thie topic in sen-
tence or two, and: then, under the garb
of resuscitating the Sangster centre ersy,
attacks- the Globe, Mr. Wylie, o the
Brockville Recorder, and Mr. Ho gson,
one of the Inspectors for the Can Ity of
York,, treating them " regardless f ex-
pens04) to some of his most select p rrase-
°len . it is not my intention to °bow
him lye entering into the merits or de-
meritS of an election contest, • now
happily a thing of the past, and which
certainly ought not to be revived. Per-
haps Mr. Blackwood feels a little sore
over the result of the election; .a id on
- thiS ground he may be excused for being
.so ; but no pardon ought to be
extended. to any teacher who so fa for-
gets what is due to his own positi it in
society as to lower the status of th pro-
fession to which he belongs, 'by h rling
-at his opponents such choice epith ts as
Mr. Blackwood seems to have so readily
at his command.. He speaks of some of
the articles in tile (Jobe , as being filled
" With the most abominable indece
and yet he himself refers to the " Globe's
lies," its "tricky dishonesty," ani its
being a disreputable partizan and sel-
tish.journal; as well as, a "dish nest
sheet." Mr. Wylie has done some lung
wrong, at least so says this .Wat rid°
gentleman, and he, therefore, thin s it
right and proper to belabor him wit 1 be-
ing a"cur," a " scab on society,"
low poltron who aught to be scouraged
within an inch of his worthless lite,"
and. he indignantly asks " Do the tol-
erate such mangy whelps in the Oolnity
of Leeds ?" Again, the Inspectm for
North York is referred. to as "a og-
son or fellow of some such name." .edg-
son and hog's SOU jingle a little when
e3T,'
sounded to togetherannd so it affords
Mr. Blackwomiati excellent opportunity
of exhibiting the innate coatheness of his
wit as a punter. This, Mr. Editor, is
the language of the man who hails from
the Central School, Waterloo. I need
not add that it is language to be depre-
ciated, and which might be expected to
emanate from the dregs of society, in-
stead of the pen of an Ontario Public
School teacher. The Globe or Mr.
Wylie or Mr. Hodgson may have erred,
and I do not say that they have or that
they have, not, but granting that they
did err, and. err grievously, surely the
English is copious enough to
allow Mr. Blackwood to censure suf-
ficiently any action --be it ever so repre-
hensibie—without disrobing himself of
the role of a gentleman. Ti conclusion,
allow me to direct Mr: Blankwood's at-
tention to his own advice to the Globe,
wherein .he says " very i;vidently its
managers and. proprietors ehould begin
by reforming themselves," I

I.Tho above letter was intended fOr last week's

Seatorth as Viewed by a
Stranger. I
A cori•espondent of thef Hamilton
Times, ander the beading "Jottings
by the way," thus speaks of Seaforth:
" On entering into the incorporated vil-
lage of Seaforth, indiVidaal from the
rural districtssis forcibly struck with the
smart business, smack of the pee*. The
merchant does not stand at his door with
a pipe in his teeth and an :idiotical lobk
On his countenance, but, on. the other
hand, behind his counteri at quick as
a needle and as sharp as a razor, to serve
his customers with despatehe I saw few
or no loafers standing at the corners of
the streets, or in the market place, with
the exception of wheat buyers, who can-
not, however, be classed limier that sec-
tion of the human species, as they pur-
chase the. wheat out of WhiCh the loaf is
manipulated. At a respectable distance
I stood and watched thesOlwheat mesa
and it is astenishiag how accurate they
have become in the. organs Of the eye and
the ear. 'When a wagon rainbles in the
distance, it requires no eitort on their
part to know where the eorind comes
from, and when it approaches, and be-
fore the farmer has. time t° cry Wee !"
they leap up with most realiarkable agil-
ity, pull up and open thei Mouth of a
sack, and down goes their hand with such
force as if they were. sure of pulling up
the cup which josephhid in the sack of
poor Benjamin. These wheat buyers
know more of the world then many peo-
ple imagine. They genera ly appear to
be somewhat careless in the habits; but
this arises more from their hanging -oil oc-
cupation than from any ba,l flaw in the
regions of their heart."

„ACCIDENT AT SMITH'S' HILL. —Last
Wednesday afternoon, durb!ig the prog-
ress of the fair at Smith's Hill, Mr.
Hugh Chisholm, of Colborne, his wife
and. two children were driving in a bug-
gy, the horse started and rain away. It
ran bet a short distance, turning off the
road and upsetting the buggy and throw-
ing the occupants violently to the ground.
Mr. Chisholm held On to the reins and
was dragged some distanee before the
horse stopped, but beyond h, few painful
bruises was not badly, hurt, Mrs.
Chisholm was pretty. severely hurt inter -
Daly, although she is doing well and in
no danger. The children escaped injury.

PROPERTY SOLD.—Mr. James Logan,
of Stanley, has purchased the store, dwel-
ling house and lots of Mr. James Mc-
Leod, at Hill's Green'for the sum of
$500. We are informed that one of Mr.
Logan's sons intend e starting in the mer-
cantile business at this place_ - Mr. Mc-
Leod intends removing to Iowa, where

Hibbert.
PLO s G MATCH.—The Hibbert plow •
ing match will be held on the farm of
Mr. Edward Lyons, near Carronbrook,
on Thursday, Oct. 22. The ground se-
lected is convethently situated and in
good order, and as liberal premiums are
offered for competition it is 'anticipated
that the match of this year will be at-
tended with the success .of former years.
—John Hazle, who was committed by
the Police Magistrate of Guelph, some
time ago, for having shot and wounded
a young woman and mate named Mary
Caber and Daniel Hurley, in a mistake,
he believing them to be his! own daugh-
ter and her lover, ei-as tried at the re-
cent Wellington AsSizes on ithe charge of
shooting with intent to ; do grievous
bodily harm. The pris4mer- pleaded
guilty to the charge. The ,judge, ad-
dressing the prisoner, aileedliim if he had
anything to say. The pritaner eagerly
seized the opportunity, and made a
speech of nearly 'one hem's! duration, re-
ferring to his family traublies and events
-Which led to the commission of the crime.
At the conclusio& of the prisoner's
speech, His Lordship said he had listen-
ed with great attention And very deep
regret to the description of 'the prisoner's
wrongs. The lightest senitence that it
was possible under the lair to pass he
would name, and, at the Berne time, if a
petition was presented 'to horeimute the
sentence, he would. he willing to sign it.
His Lordship then pronounced the sen-
tence of 12 months' confinement in the
Central Prison at Torouth. The pris-
oner brightened. up when be heard the
light sentence pronounced.!
