He wrote a letter a few weeks ago, threaten- ing that if I did not bring them to him, he would write to Hon. 0. Mowat about j. Now, if he wishes to open up a cor- respondence with that honorable gentle- man, I have not the slightest objection, but I will just tell Mr. Plunkett quietly, but firmly, that neither he nor Hcni. 0. Mowat will ever make me take the boxes one rod from my own door -they We ready waiting for him as 80011 as he ,ealls and shows his authority to receive them -and the sooner he does so the bet- ter, as I do not hold myself responsible for them, and may charge storage on them. When I got the office of clerk, I had to make three special calls for the books and papers, and, after waiting nearly a year, had to drive around the -township for the ballot boxes. If a man is unfit to be a -clerk, because he fails to perform duties that are not mentioned in the statutes, how about a man who, out of sheer stubbornness, refuses to fulfil those duties which are set forth in the statutes? The statutes say that the clerk shall furnish the newly elected Reeve and Deputy Reeve with certiti- cates, to enable them to take their seats in the County Council. When Mr. Keys went to Mr. Plunkett for said cer- tificate, that gentleman positively re- fused to give it. Mr. I Keys went, I think. some three trips through b.ad roads and iworseweather, to be met each time with refusal and abusive language.. At length, on the very morning on which the County Council met, Mr. Keys took witnesses with him, and called once more upon this British clerk. This time he yielded, though not in a very gentleman- ly manner. Now, Mr. Plunkett, when next you, undertake to write about the duties of a clerk, ponder the above few facts well before you close your letter. A. M. C AMPBELL. STANLEY, Nov. 29, 1876. Auction Sales.

MARKETS SEAFORTH, Des. 7, 1876. Farmers will observe with pleasure that there is quite an advance in the price of wheat this week. Heavy de- liveries are expected in consequence. The pork season has now fairly commenc- ed, and there is quite a quantity coming in. It may not be amiss to state that purchasers of live hogs find it more pro- fitable to immediately dress and dispose of them at home, instead of shipping to foreign markets. The prices paid for dressed hogs at the Seaforth market, as usual, cannot be surpassed in Western Ontario.

MO MAN should borrow money Ithont a very 1- good prospect of profit from it investment. land to buy' Land or make Improvement' on places that will pay well for the outlay, are alsed- ficient reason -for a Farmer's Loan. Having de- termined on the outlay, the next anxiety will bo the source of supply about which considerable care should be used. It should be obtained on such terms as will not be likely to distress the borrower, either as to the payment of its interest or the return of the principal. Al- though the utmost caution may have been used in making en investment, yet it often happens that an unforeseen accident may occur 'to him - 'self or family, or the failure of a teason's crop, may place the prudent farmer in sueh difficult eircumeta.nees that if a Loan cannot be obtained serious loss must follow. The Loans niade.hy the ,CANADA LANDED CREDIT COMPANY Have the following adva\ntages : Low rates of Interest ; the Principal can ho repaid at any time it may suit the borrower, without previous agreement, or kept as a loan for 23 years, at which time all payments cease, and the Mortgage is discharged. No Agents or sur-, yeyors' Fees are charged to the Borrower, and all Legal Expenses subject to a tariff. All Loans are Made on First Mortgages, and subject to the payment of 10 per sent. per annum, as follows: Eight per cent. interest on the Loan, and 2 per cent. carried to the Sinking Fund, to the credit of the Borrower, which with interest compound- ed is all available as part payment towards the principal, and is bona fide the property of the borrower for that purpose. whenever he may de- sire to pay off the Loan. Thus a Farmer bor- rowing $1000, would pay $100 per year as prin- cipal andsinking Fund, but if at the end of five years he desire s+ to pay off the Principal he e ill have to his eredit as sinking fund $112 60, and will on payment of $887 40 have 48 debt discharged.
