JANUARI 11, 1878— THE HURON EXPOSITOR., - CIark,1 the pastor, together with the ohairman's opening remarks; and his very pleasing manner in introducing the i speakers made the occasion, one of • speoial interest. About $30 was real- ized. • —The Clinton New Era says: "Sev- eral of our "solid. men" happening to meet in a, store in town the other day, got weighed, the fallowing being the figures : Mr. Gallenger, 247 pounds, N. Robson,, 240 ; C. Morrow. 235, and E. Corbett, 228. Total, 950 pounds, not bad for four." —Several farmers along th.e Huron Road, in the vicinity of Helmesville, haveisown considerable spring wheat dur- ing the recent Mild weather. Should it not sprout until the custornar? spring time it will be all right, but should it germinate at once it will be so much labor and see- Iost. —Jaa.Carter, of Sewforth, was brought 'to jail on Saturday, because he couldn't give security, to the amount of 04,000 (!)„ to keep- the peace, he having uttered =certain threats. (This paragraph, which has been going the rounds of the County ress, la incorrect. Tho name should - Charles Carter, of Molinlop, instead of &MM. Carter, of Seaforth.

B. Scott, late of the firm of Scott tt Vanstone, Goder- ich, Were buried in Kincardine on Thursday last week. A very large num- • ber of people follo-wed the body to the grave, among whom were many Free Masons, to Which order Mr. Scott' had belonged. Twelve delegates from the lodges in Goclerich were present, besides a considerable number of the deceased's friends in town. --Some evenings ago,Mr. and Mrs. Hy. Horton, of Goderich, an returning horae from a concert, were surprised to find a well filled basket placed in. the front porch, which on being examined proved to contain a newly -born male child, -wrapped in some old. clothes. Evident- ly the ellild was only a few hours old. Mr. Horto-n secured a nurse fo the 1131- • i fortunate babe on the followii g morn- ing, and arranged for its fatur welfare. 'rhe inliuman mother is yet unknown. ' —A very successful Tea meeting was held in Fansville Canada Methodist ;church on the Zurich road in the town- ship of Hay on the 20th ult. in behalf of the sabbath school. Addresses were delivered by the Rev. Messrs. Hartley' and Rice, and reading by Mr. Benjamin Swenerton. • The rallsie was flarnished by a choir selected from the school, Miss Willson presiding at the organ. A well filled Christmas tree, provided. by the lathes of the congregation, furnished- • presents for the children of the school. The a:mount realized from • the tea amounted to $41.15. A very happy evening was spent and the greatest satisfaction was given to all present. —On the afternoon of the 21st alt., the wheat bin in the north-east corner of the third storey of the Wingham flouring mill gave way, the contents— about a thousand bushels—going crash- ing through a space of about fourteen feet square of the three floors, -until it reached the ground below. Some forty , • or fifty bushels of wheat were lost, some ' of the machinery damaged, and the cor- ner of the mill badly wrecked, entailing a, loss altogether of something under $500. Fortunately no one was hint. The cause of the accident is alleged to be owing to the wells 'spreading from not being tied. The mill was stopped only some ten or twelve hours, the • lessee, Mr. Hutton, having, with char- acteristic energy, set to work at once to repair the -damage. • —On Monday of last week a most un- fortunate accident befer Master Robert, son of Mr. J. P. McIntyre, of Exeter. He was riding on horseback a couple of • miles above Exeter ; his horse stumbled on the rough road and fell forward, throwing the boy off. The horses knee, it is supposed, came upon the poor lad's chest as he fell. His shoulder blade was broken, and'his left arm badly in- ured, and swollen to twice its natural size. Fears are also entertained that he has been injured. internally. The horse had a deep cut in his head, in vrhich some gravel is still imbedded, and one of his shaulders was badly hurt. A far- mer witnessed the accident, and when • he arrived on the spot, the boy was ly- ing insensible, with one of the horses feet resting on his .head. A -wagon Was obtained, and he was brought home, where he still suffers very severely from - his injuries. Auction on Sales. aturday, JanJ 12, on 10t 6, con. 14, Hullett, Farm S ock and Iraplements.
