seatorth, having learned that tea pedlars vie Ore-
grinaying through the country pretending to
offer great bargains in teal, beg to -warn the pub-
lic against all such plausible storiea. They are
preps red to furnish tea of every variety of a mush
supeelor quality at better rates than can possibly
be p hafted from any such irresponsible travel-
lers, and would recommend purchasers
with sponsible houses which have a reputation
to su tain, instead of purchasing from these tray -
elle who are here to -day and away to -morrow.
An ination of eur stock and prices le respeet-
fully solicited, and. we guarantee satisfaction.

Museoee.—We are pleased to know
that a great number of our towns -people
have connected themselves with Prof.
Millard's music class. The music they
are rehearsing is the Cantata of Esther,
the beautiful Queen. This is one of the
Most popular oratories that has yet been
performed in this country. The solos
.areeif a very high oeler, and varied to
suit any voice, from•the 'highest soprano
or tenor to the deepest alto or bass,while
the choruses are calculated to display
great harmony and power. We are
pleased to learn from the Professor that
there is talent in our town competent to
take all the parts in a far superior style
to many of our cities and larger towne
where he has performed it before,' No
doubt, with the elegant wardrobe with
Which Mr. Millard dresses the piece and
the large number of singers taking part,

it worth while to notice those boasting
effusions, as they seem to "please they

laudation. • •',We only refer to the Matter

I • FROM SEAFORTH TO BAYFIELD BY
WATER.—On Monday morning last Dr.
Gouinlock and Mr. W. S. Robertson, of
this town, started from Egmondville for
Bayfield in a bark canoe. They left Eg-
mondville about 7 o'clock on. Monday
morning and reached Bayfield, sailing
around the pier out into the lake by
Tuesday night, making the journey in
about two days, They reached Varna
the first night. • They think, hewever,
that if they were going again, now that
they know the "lie of the land," they
could make the distance -48 miles—in
about 12 hours. During the voyage they
met with several queer adventures.
When near Clinton, and while attempt-
ing to get their canoe under a log it cap-
sized tnrning-them into water neck -deep
and givingthem a cold bath which -at
this seasonof the year could not have
been very enjoyable. At several places
their progress was interrupted by jams
of driftwood, one of which, about live
miles on this side of Bayfield is nearly
two miles in length. Of course wher-
ever these occurred they had to shoulder
their craft and portage it around until
they came to clear water again. Both
gentlemen, notwithstanding these little
difficulties, were delighted with th eir
trip and describe it as most exciting and
exhilaratiog. Of course we don't doubt
their sincerity, bat we think we should
yet prefer the old-fashioned mode of
locomotion to Bayheld.
REAL ESTATE SALE.—The auctien salele
of Mr. Maolm's town property, held on
Tuesday last, was very fairly attended,
and bidding was toleeably spirited. ll'he
brick residence and grounds were pur-
chased by Dr. Vercoe for $2,600, and
the ,Smith property was knocked doevn
to Mr. Lyali for $1,020. Both proper-
ties are well worth the money paid for
them. Dr. Vercoe intends selling, his
present residence, and.' will occupy the
one he has recently purchased.
BUSINESS CHANGE. —Mr. F. A. Meyer
has disposed of his soda water business
and stock in trade to Messrs. Alexander
Slinamon and Henry Colbert, of Egmond-
vine. These gentlemen are making pre-
parations to carry on this business en an
extensive scale in connection with the
Egmeiadville brewery. They are both
enterprising reliable men and will, no
doubt do a large business. 'Mr. Meyer has
some intention of removing to the States
if he can make suitable arrangement.
THE WEATHER.—The weather for the
past week has been all the most fastidi-
ous could desire. The roads, ander the
influence of the genial sun, are becoming
dry and cleeety, and. the snow has already
disappeared. The frost also in inost
places is out of the ground, and work in
the fields has become general. On almost
every farm plowmen. are busy at work,
and in some instances seed has been sown.
We are glad to learn from all acceunts
that the fall wheat has stood the winter
well, and now that it is relieved ef its
winter covering looks healthy and green.
