QUITTED. --In the list of liquor li- ceises issued by the Commissioners of Sointh Huron which was publls. d last week, we inadvertently omitted the fol- iose -hag in the township of Stephen : B." Sparr and Wm. Baker, Crediton ; Wt J. Moffatt and Charles Robinson, Centralia ; Wm. Holt and Wm. Mc- Leod, Stephen. At a meeting of the Coiimissioners,. held at Exeter, on Tuesday, it was decided to grant 'a, license to Robert Stanlake, Port'Blake, township of Hay. THE TWENTY-FOURTH OF MAY. --A Da tug of the Seaforth Fire Brigade w'J ,be held in the Town Hall on Mon - da evening. As. no other person ae ms to be making a move with a view of getting up an entertainment for the 24th of May, the firemen have the matter under consideration, and if they receive sufficient encouragement from those who should encourage such a movement they will likely take the matter in hand. It is for the consider- ation of this that the meeting is to be held. 1APPOINTMENTS.—The following ap- po ntments- in connection with the Methodist Episcopal Church have been ane de in stations in this'county : God= arch—Rev. G. A. Francis. =-Seaforth— C.I. W. Volllick_ Stanley -R. Howey. Brussels—D. Ecker. Rev. Mr. Ed - mends, who has been in Seaforth for the past year, has been appointed. to Glencoe, and Rev. Mr. Gifford, of Brussels, has been appointed to Dres- den The Rev.. Mr. Williamson, for- na,erly of Seaforth, and who is well and favorably known to many of our read- ers, has been appointed to Hamilton for the fourth time. 3 n.LED IN MicnIoAN.—We have re- ceived a note from Mr. Geo. Chnrch, Herriston,. Clare county, Michigan, stating that a young man named Wm. Bell met with a fatal accident in a lu ber camp in that district on the 9th _ mat. He was loading timber when he w s struck with a ' log and instantly kil ed. The unfortunate young man be - lo gs to this county, but what part is no known. He was about 5 feet 10 in hes high, weighed about 180 pounds, an was of fair complexion and florid coalintenance. Mr. Church wishes us to make these particulars known with the hope that they may meet the eye of fi some of the unfortunate man's friends, to rwhorn he will be very glad to give ang desired information respecting the a event. / HEAvx Loss.—We learn from a correspondent that Mr. E. Gaunt, Deputy Reeve of West Wawanosh, has lost leis splendid , heavy draught breed- ing mare. She died about two weeks age of inflammation., and was sick only a few- hours. She was sired by import- ed ! "John Bull." She was onlyl four years old, and was a noted prize ,winner, never having been beaten in a, show ring. She was valued at $300. A very fair representation of this splendid ani- mal can be seen in Mr, Gannt's view in the county atlas. Mr. 0 -aunt is noted for his good stock, and has been very sugcessful as a breeder, both of horses and cattle:, but the loss of this fine ani- mal will be severely felt by him, not so match on account of the money valve, but it will be very hard to procure her • equal as a breeding mare. GOOD THING.—Mr. Robert Fulton, of to of co ge th taa Fgmonaville, has acquired the right amiantifaoture and sellin . the county 13uron a patent buggy top, which for nfort, neatness of appearance and feral utility, surpasses anything , of. kind we have seen. It can be- . at bed to any buggy, and when on looks as dwell as an ordinary cover. It can also be removed' when desired with -very li fe t le difficulty: One of its principal tures is the ease with. which it can beraised and lowered. This can be 1 done by a sprint; on each side without leaving the seat, and without maki ng aur undue noise to frighten a h orse. As wellas being convenient, this is also a great source Of security in the event of a horse becoming restive or u'nrn.anage- ab e, as the cover can be lowered in an in ant, making it( as easy to get out of th vehicle as if ` there was no cover on • it. We . understand that -Mr. Fulton has already received orders for quite a 1 nutnber. tLV CiosI e. In oro r to afford their clerks and employees due oppor- teeity for recreation, the merchants halve, very properly, agreed to close .I tri it stores at 7 o'clock during the sum - m r months. We understand that all . th merchants in town have signed an ; at, eemeut to this effect, and we hope it wi I be sacredly kept. All work and no : play makes Jack a dull 'joy, and by 1 of prding their clerks this' additional a means for recreation and amusement, th merchants will be all the more 1 fai hfully served by them, while none evil lose any custom. It will not do, . ho`+s ever, to simply close the front doors i and invite customers around to the Bach. If this scheme is adopted by any thi$ arrangement will soon; fall through.
