tions to the Postmaster -General they
got the post office, for the simple reason
that:I had not tendered in resignation,
nor did I intend to until the commence-
ment of the quarter according to the
post; Office regulations, but I had not the
chance to tender my resignation, as I
wassumiinarily dismissed at three days'
notice, I suppose by the party or their
friends writing to the Postmaster -Gen-
eral or Mr. Farrow, M. P., (for thelast
time) that I had cleared ott and left
the country. Such misstatements and
falsehhoods hacl the effect, perhaps
through the influence of Mr. Farrow,
who no doubt strained every _nerve to
get the office into his own riding, in
order, perhaps, to gain strength at the
incoming election. He says now the
cry is politics. Mr. Farrow. and John.
A. are catching scissors, because Mr.
Neil got the post office. Politics must
have originated in his brain, as I never
heard it mentioned outside of it. It
must be very fertile. Perhaps he
thought by hearing the conversation of
the public—Conservative and. Reform—
on hearing that the post office was
taken so suddenly away, froth an old
public servant, who was never on' the
defaulters' list, and who had no notice
of dismissal only as stated above. Now,
for the facts. One of my sureties wish-
ed to retire, as he was surety for the
postmaster at. Brussels, and had been
for a number of years previous to going
my surety, and it was illegal. • so to do.
I got another one in his place, and had.
the He" bonds executed accordingly. I
received them on the 23rd of March.,
had theni signed, witnessed rind Sworn.
to before a Justice of the Peace .on the
24th,returned them to the Post Office
Inspector, properly executed. On the
28th of March I received a transfer,
which was dated on the 25th, to hand
over to Win.. Neil the contents belong-
ing to the post office, &o., which I ac-
cordingly did. It was quite evident to
me that he was in a very great hurry to
get hold of the contents of the office.
Soon after I changed the mail (it being.
Thursday night it was very large)., he
came and demanded the contents be-
fore the hour of closing, and the result.
was that the public had to do without
their mail until the next day, April .1st..
I shall not say any more on the subject
at present, nor would I have done so
now had it not been for the misrepre-
sentations of the correspondent above
referred to. Thanking you, Mr. Editor,
if you will insert this communication,
I remain, yours truly R. PATIsoN, Late
Postmaster, Walton..

DOMESTIC TERRORS.—We de not know
-what the aristocracy infowl are doing.
this week, but we can assure them that
fancy cannot picture, or conception
realize, the intense misery and horror
prevalent among the male sex of this
vicinity. On Monday morning, long
before the "orb of day" shed its beams
of lustre over the earth, I was sum-
moned by the sentence ; "Take down
that stove, take off theshutters, pull up
the carpets, and get to work ; send to
town for carpet tacks." Thus, as if by
magic, I was aroused from sweet re-
pose to the onerous domestic duties. I
can tell you it sends a shudder through
me that will not soon be forgotten.
When I see them adjusting their duster
caps every morning, winding aprons
ronnd their heads, having a broom in
one hand and a whitewash brush in the
other, woe be unto the man who inter-
views a domestic about that time. They
look so grotesquely with their scrubbing
headgear, as they look with an air of
disdain at every cobweb,, as if a spider
had not a right to live. Then is cal-
culated to a mathematical nicety how
many pails of water are requisite to
satisfy the demands ; then is commenc-
ed the everlasting dusting and carpet
shaking. At this juncture I Rawarder-
ed to assist (submit ye benighted hus-
bands) sllakiag the leeward side of a
large double kitchen carpet, while five
domestics were at the windward side.
Thus wasprecipitated down my throat
24 goodly quantity of the products. of the
shaking. Now, if Huron does not soon
have a representative in the lunatic
asylum, there will be told an anecdote.
of one who "came to his death by car-
pet shaking." One of the most famous
writers ever lived divided the "attri-
butes of a wife" into ten, namely four
to good temper, two to good sense, one
to wit, one to beauty ; the remaining
. two to be set apart for fine accomplish-
ments. He can divide them.. as he
likes, but at - this "awful season" we
want all these attributes to be devoted
to good temper.—CARPET SHARER.

ACCIDENT .Iii MouRIS.:'$r. William
Scott, a young man who l`ves on the
4th line of Morris, met lith a very
serious accident on Thursday afternoon
of last week. He was engaged drawing
firewood for his brother, a ' resident of
the 5th line.. Coming dawn the hill
near Clark's bridge, same of the wood
in front fell off, striking the horses on
the lege. They started off at a furious
rate. At the bottom at the hill Mr.
scat was thrown off, the wagon wheel
passing over his body, and depriving
him of consciousness for some little
time. Although badly crushed by the
accident it is thought that he will be
around again before long.. The team
ran over a mile and a half before being
stopped, and . the wood was scattered
along the road over the greater part of
that distance.

COME AGf uN, VENNOB. — Fortune
smiled upon 'us once more on Monday
evening last in the capacity of an in
'vigorating thunderstorm, and the period
of frondescence has now fairly started,
which; as our notable weather prophet,
Mr. S. Bennett, wisely predicted, has
been rather late in commencing. ' r
THE TURF.--Fleety Nell, the cele-
brated trotting mare owned by Mr.
George Smallacombe, of this village,
is now to be seen on the track every
day, undergoing a course of training, by
which she will be able to sustain the
reputation designated by the appel-
lation which has been so appropriately
selectedto be in consonance with her
speedy movements. Her peculiar
movements are such as to command
the admiration of all, and should she
fail to secure prominence at the coming
races, we have no doubt but she will be
at least the the centre of attraction.
The Export Cattle Trade Not
so Encouraging.
The exportation of Canadian live
cattle to Gteat Britain is a trade upon
which great hopes have been built, and
the steady'growth of which has been
confidently predicted. It is not so
long since we heard, and with reason,
that there was money in it, on which
account, doubtless, a good number of
exporters hastened to try their hand..
The occasion was favorable a few sea-
sons ago, for British cattle had been
deciminated by diseases, and prices
there were high, while here they were
16w enough to leave a good margin to
the shipper.
So great. has been the number of
American and Canadian cattki sent to
Britain in the last year or two, however,
that a marked change is ap iarent in
theresult of recent shipments so far as
regards profit, We have learned that
the owners of the live cargo of the
European,which sailed from Halifax last
month with 450 head of good Canadian
cattle, mostly from Wellington County
or thereabout., at a freight of £4 10s. -
per head, lost some thousands by the
venture. Advices bearing date the 25th •
of April, desetibe the Liverpool cattle
market as dreadfully bad, and a cable
of the 2nd inst. says, "market worse,
hundreds _unsold," while the prices
realized for beeves there, are such as to
net shippers, ! as stated by creditable
persons, a loss from $8 to $12 per head.
There are several reasons for this
condition of things : In addition to the
increasing number of beeves sent into
Britain from America, from Holstein
and other parts of Europe, more 'cattle
are being raised in England itself than
were raised a few years ago ; prices
there have been steadily coming down,
while here they have been forced up by
the export demand, and our freights
have been high. ' Another very con-
siderable element in the problem is the
growth 'of the American dead -meat
trade with. Great Britain. By the use
of refrigerators on a lrirge scale on ship-
board, and so preserving an evenly cool
temperature, it has been found possible
to transport across the Atlantic, ' meat
killed in The United States, and present
it in the English market. in excellent
condition. A prejudice hindered this
dead -meat tor a time from "taking" in
England, but the hundreds . of carcases
now sent almost daily by'steamer from
New York, find sale in the Old Country
with increasing readiness, and help -to
lower the prices. To these circum-
stances add the fact,that where in 1877,
the first beeves sent to Britain from
Canada cost in Ontario on the hoof lie.
per ib., as much as 5/ to 6c; is paid
this year, and it will be less incredible
that, in the experience of some of our
largest dealers, there is no -longer
money in it on its present basis, but
that a number of recent shippers have
lost money, - and' are thoroughly dis-
couraged from further operations.
Something similar is the case with
sheep. Eighteen thousand merinos
were landed in England from this
continent the other day almost simul-
taneously, and BO great was the glut
that they were sold for 4d per pound.
As much as 6. cents live weight has
been paid here within a few days for
shipment. . t
The business has assumed a serious
aspect, and unless something' can be
done to put it on a paying footing,
say the shippers, there must be -a decid-
ed decline in our cattle export. Ocean
freights are too high, it is claimed, for
one thing, while in the face of prices
realizable in Britain, it will not do to
pay so much for the live animals here
as has been paid. 'It is very probable
that the point is near, if it be not
actually reached,where system,economy,
and the skill of the experienced
merchant are found to be essential to
success.
In many businesses where new mar-
kets are found, or- where new phases of
trade appear, it is possible often for
tyros, or mere speculators to "go in"
while the margin is large and whilst
few have perceived the opening, and
reap large prdfits for a while. Times,
however, is pretty sure to bring increas-
ed competition, and reduced profits ;
and it is then that experience, know-
ledge and superior ' arrangements- are
essential in order to make ends meet.
Such a point appears to be . reached in
this trade ; and it is the part of wisdom
for shippers to perceive it and . act ac-
cordingly. It will no longer do to send
forward ship -load after ship -load of
beeves or sheep, bought here at high
prices, and run the risk of a favorable
trams -Atlantic market. In this, as in
any other export business, the debit and -
credit of the venture must be scanned
before -hand, the items of expense close-
ly calculated, and the probable supply
cautiously learned. Tn short the cattle
exporter to be successful must become
a skilled merchant. Rule -of -thumb
will not rsnswer ; and "going it blind,"
always dangerous, is now -a -days
ruinous.
We still think that Canada can send
her surplus cattle to the old land, and.
do so profitably. But we must take
full account of the great enterprise and
the superior resources of our United
States competitors , of the varying•state
of the market we propose to reach, and
of the constantly ohangings of transport.
If live -stock shipments prove to be at a
disadvantage compared with dead meat
export, we must prepare, as circum-
stances change, to change our methods
